00:05I'm sorry, look out!
00:08Officer Dan.
00:10Dan, help him.
00:14Tell me what you're feeling.
00:18Frustration.
00:19But not fear.
00:21No.
00:24Today was the first time during this exercise
00:26that your heart rate didn't spike.
00:28You remained calm.
00:30Why do you think that is?
00:31Because I know there's no way I could have stopped what happened.
00:34That's right.
00:35The men who ambushed you and Officer Juarez rigged the game.
00:39No matter which way you turned,
00:40whether you split up or stayed together,
00:42even if you called it in,
00:43none of that would have made a difference
00:44because they were ready.
00:46One of you was going to be shot that night.
00:48And who knows, if you hadn't made the decisions you did,
00:50maybe it would have been Selena instead of you.
00:52No, you're right.
00:55I've been blaming myself like if I had been smarter,
00:58I could have somehow avoided it,
01:00but it was out of my control.
01:07Congratulations, Officer Thorson.
01:09In my professional opinion,
01:11you are ready to return to active duty.
01:19Oh, I'm just really excited to get back to work.
01:23Yeah.
01:24Yeah.
01:36Look, I told you I'm fine.
01:38I'll just retake the detective's exam in two years.
01:41It's not a big deal.
01:43You know, every time a woman in my life has said she was fine,
01:45she most definitely was not.
01:47I'm not going to pretend like I wasn't a little disappointed,
01:50but I've made my peace with it.
01:52Plus, I'm a professional.
01:54Unless you want me to be upset.
01:55No, of course not.
01:56Hey, Lucy, heard about the detective exam?
01:59Tough break?
02:00Yes, thank you.
02:01I'm fine.
02:03Whenever Bailey says she's fine like that,
02:05I up my life insurance.
02:10There he is.
02:12Everyone drive safe out there.
02:14Thorson is back in a shot.
02:16As always, detective,
02:17your unwavering support means the world to me.
02:19Nah, don't fret.
02:20And Harper's because practically and I love you.
02:22Bradford, you got a minute?
02:26Congrats on being cleared.
02:28Thanks.
02:29Oh, any nerves?
02:31Not really.
02:32Um, I feel strong in mind, body, and spirit.
02:34I'm ready.
02:35Thorson's not ready.
02:36What's the first thing an officer returning from injury worries about?
02:40He didn't hurt again.
02:41Especially after a near fatal like Thorson's.
02:43You afraid he's going to go turtle up when things get real?
02:46I don't want to wait to find out.
02:47In this business, we don't have the luxury of do-overs.
02:49Do you want me to take him out today and get punched in the face?
02:53Officially, I want you to supervise his ability to cope with stress,
02:56both mental and physical.
02:59You got it.
03:01Let's see how he does against the train.
03:04Thorson!
03:05You're with me.
03:06Nitro needs a support officer.
03:08Oh, um, yes, sir.
03:12Ooh.
03:14You know what it means to turtle up, Thorson?
03:18I don't think so, sir.
03:20Happens when an officer returns to the job after a trauma put under some kind of pressure,
03:24usually physical for the first time.
03:25Instead of falling back on their training, they shrink into a shell where they feel safe.
03:30So you think I'm going to turtle up?
03:31Maybe.
03:32If you do, there are lots of companies looking for delivery guys with a good driving record.
03:36Well, actually, my fallback career is going to be influencer slash shoe designer.
03:41I see what you're saying.
03:43Oh, so that's why I'm riding with you.
03:45So I got to pass, what, some type of TEM test so I don't?
03:49It's called the train.
03:50TEM test for tactical, responsive, assertive, investigative, and nerve.
03:54Now I'm going to test you on all five major functions in stress environments.
03:58Evaluate, improvise, adapt, and overcome.
04:00You ready for this?
04:02Bring it on.
04:07So, how did you like riding with Sergeant Bradford?
04:10You see, it was very educational.
04:12Both he and Detective Harper have very distinctive styles.
04:15Dispatch, you said the RP was on the south side of the park?
04:18I'm going to 7 out of 15.
04:21So, did they, like, say anything about me?
04:23They did.
04:25Like all rookies, you are a work in progress.
04:28Over here!
04:31Hi, I'm Officer Nolan.
04:32This is Officer Juarez.
04:33You called about a body?
04:34Yeah, it's out in there.
04:36Someone jammed the lock.
04:37But when I finally got it open, she was just lying there.
04:41Okay, it's okay.
04:42It's okay.
04:42Stay here.
04:43We're going to need to get some information from you, okay?
04:45Okay.
04:53After you?
04:54Yep.
05:12Overdose?
05:15No.
05:16Navidity in the cheek.
05:17She died face down and was moved here.
05:21Looks like a homicide.
05:22Let's call it in.
05:23Control requesting detectives for a possible homicide.
05:32Welcome to your first test.
05:33Let me guess.
05:34That's the stress environment?
05:35That's a little more than that.
05:36The man inside is Tyson Klishnikau.
05:38Six foot four, 275.
05:40Has a warrant for a missed court appearance.
05:41Last time he was arrested, he broke the cop's nose.
05:43I assume calling for backup is cheating?
05:46Train's leaving, Officer Thorson.
05:50Okay, let's do this.
05:58Police, open up.
06:00It's all for you.
06:20It's clear.
06:21Tyson, show yourself.
06:32Good one of you, get that beer.
06:37I moved the picnic blanket so we could examine her head.
06:40She was definitely moved post-mortem.
06:42Obvious blunt force trauma to the head.
06:46What's this under her shirt?
06:50Oh, what is that?
06:52That's the signature of the pentagram killer.
07:00Pardon us, just one more.
07:02So the pentagram killer is wanted in connection to a string of unsolved homicides in the early 2000s.
07:07His victims were all middle-aged females.
07:09He'd carve a pentagram into their midsections after he killed them.
07:13Then in 2009, he just stopped.
07:15Hulu just dropped a docuseries on it.
07:17Maybe the renewed notoriety inspired him to come out of retirement.
07:20The hysteria was real.
07:21I was away at college, and I made my brothers escort my mom everywhere.
07:25It's scary that they never caught the guy.
07:27Oh, the city threw everything they had at it.
07:29Multiple agencies working 24-7.
07:31My first sergeant was on the task force.
07:33Oh, speaking of, whenever we respond to a potentially high-profile event,
07:38it's important to notify the watch commander.
07:39Yes, sir.
07:42How was the wait?
07:43Adam 200, be advised.
07:44Our DB might be a possible victim of the pentagram killer.
07:47Officer Juarez!
07:51Did I do something wrong?
07:52As for T.O., that is on you.
07:54Yes, ma'am.
07:54I am sorry, ma'am.
07:55Officer Juarez, I should have been clearer.
07:57You never give out that kind of sensitive information over the radio.
08:00Now, every news organization or hobbyist with a scanner has it.
08:03Oh, my God, I didn't think that...
08:05Did I hear someone say pentagram killer on the radio?
08:07No.
08:08I'm so sorry.
08:09Is that really bad?
08:11Cases like this capture the public's attention.
08:13People calling with tips, trying to be a part of it,
08:15but most of them are a complete waste of time.
08:17Yeah, because when people panic,
08:19they call 911 at every bump of the night.
08:21So, no, that was not ideal.
08:23Okay, is there anything I can do to help?
08:25Just take the witness back to the station,
08:27maybe stay off the radio.
08:28Yes, ma'am.
08:29We're on it.
08:30I'm sorry.
08:31Come on.
08:35You want me to start canvassing?
08:36Uh, no.
08:37We need to secure the perimeter first.
08:39Um, there's no one watching the northwest corner.
08:43Probably because it's where the hell dumpsters are.
08:47Yeah, of course.
08:48Whatever you need.
08:49As a patrol officer,
08:50I'm here to support your investigation in any way that I can.
08:52Great.
08:53We're going to head back to the station
08:54and dig into this case file
08:56and let crime scene do their thing.
09:12Come on.
09:14Got it.
09:15Yeah, just lean him up against the car.
09:18Control, Bradford.
09:19Can I get a transport of van to our location?
09:23What's that?
09:24No idea.
09:27I'll check it out.
09:29Tyson?
09:32Tyson, it's me.
09:34Hi.
09:35You looking for Tyson?
09:38Have you heard the good news?
09:40What good news?
09:41Our Lord and Savior has come to save our souls.
09:44Well, amen, sister.
09:45Can I see some ID?
09:49Ma'am?
09:50Excuse me.
09:51Ma'am.
09:55Ma'am.
10:06No.
10:06No!
10:06Fuck!
10:10Ah!
10:11Ah!
10:12Ah!
10:13Ah!
10:13Ah!
10:14Ah!
10:14Ah!
10:17Ah!
10:29Hey, Harper, I just found a pile of vomit on the far northwest corner of the park.
10:34Yo, lucky you.
10:35It's unlikely to be related, but we still need to collect it just in case.
10:40I will have TID process it as soon as they're done with the same.
10:43Oh, um, how long do you think that'll take?
10:45Uh, a couple hours, four tops.
10:48In the meantime, keep an eye on it.
10:50It's my lucky...
10:52It's my lucky day.
10:58I wouldn't want to be her.
11:00Oh, man, that man is an Olympic-level yeller.
11:03You got an ID on Arvick?
11:05Yeah, Cheryl Budney, 42, works at Lincoln Junior High.
11:09She left at her usual time around 5 p.m.
11:12Didn't show up today.
11:13Did she live close by the park?
11:14No, Culver City.
11:15So that means that the dump site is most likely related to the killer?
11:19Yeah.
11:20Cheryl's brother lives over in Lodar, Armenia.
11:22He should be here any minute.
11:23I reserve interview three for us.
11:24Great.
11:27You still have all your fingers and toes?
11:29Sergeant Gray was very fair, and again, I'm very sorry.
11:32Don't worry about us.
11:33It's you guys who are going to pay the price.
11:35What do you mean?
11:35Any more evidence pointing to the pentagram killer?
11:37Some of these signature qualities match his previous victims, but all are public knowledge.
11:42Which means we can't decisively say it's him.
11:45Nolan, I need you guys 10-8.
11:46Calls are backing up.
11:4726 pending related to the pentagram.
11:50And that's the price.
11:52Cheryl's next of kin is on his way.
11:54Call us if you get anything interesting.
11:56Phone call.
11:57On the phone.
12:03All right.
12:04What have we got, Officer Thorson?
12:06Well, she attempted to contact a well-known criminal and one suspect.
12:09She ran when she saw my uniform, giving me probable cause to believe that she also was engaged in criminal
12:14activity.
12:15And she also held $15,000 in cash.
12:18And cash is frequently used to finance and conceal criminal activity.
12:24Not bad.
12:25Is that enough to arrest?
12:26I mean, she tried to scratch my face off, so there's a 148 right there.
12:29But I'm actually more interested in why she had all that money on her.
12:33Good.
12:33Under stress, you made a tactical entry.
12:36You were responsive to criminal activity and asserted what she tried to run.
12:39You may build this train just yet.
12:42Well, what about Nerve?
12:43I mean, she hit me with a bag and did you see her nails?
12:46Nope.
12:47We're going to have a process and we got work to do.
12:52Jeff Budney, I'm Detective Lopez.
12:55This is Detective Harper.
12:56If you follow us, we have a room set up.
12:57I got 30 minutes left on my lunch break.
12:59Can't you just say whatever it is you mean to say right here?
13:02Well, we're sorry to have to tell you this, but it's about your sister, Cheryl.
13:06What about her?
13:08She's deceased.
13:12What?
13:15What happened?
13:16It was a homicide.
13:18I'm so sorry.
13:19A homicide?
13:20Wait, that's when?
13:23How?
13:24Yes, I know this is difficult, but we really would like to speak with you somewhere where
13:28there's more privacy.
13:29Just tell me what happened to my sister.
13:31They discovered her body in a park this morning.
13:33That's really all we can say right now.
13:35That's all you can say.
13:36Did you two get along?
13:38I mean, when was the last time you saw or spoke with her?
13:41We were tight.
13:42I don't know.
13:43I talked to her a couple days ago.
13:44Wednesday, maybe.
13:45I don't know.
13:45Can you think of anyone who wanted to harm her?
13:48No.
13:50She worked in a grade school.
13:52Well, I'm sorry, but I have to ask, what were you doing last night?
13:56You mean while my sister was being murdered?
13:58Yeah.
13:58Watching the Laker game at Barney's.
14:0020 people can vouch for me.
14:02Okay, listen, I know you're upset, and I cannot even imagine what you were going through right
14:06now, but the more you give us, the faster we can find who did this.
14:10I can't do this right now, okay?
14:11There's people I need to call.
14:13My mom.
14:14Jesus.
14:14I gotta call my mom.
14:15We understand, but as soon as possible, we need to sit down with you and get a full
14:18statement.
14:19Call us when you're ready.
14:20Anytime, day or night.
14:24Well, he seems genuinely upset.
14:26Yeah, still gonna check that alibi, though.
14:29Damn straight.
14:30All right, Sarge, both suspects are booked.
14:33You want a medal?
14:35No, sir.
14:36I just really would like to figure out what a suburban housewife was doing with all that
14:39cash, and why bring it to Tyson?
14:40Opioids, gambling, debt, pirated movies.
14:43Who knows?
14:43Who cares?
14:44They never completed the transaction.
14:45There's more to it.
14:47Shouldn't we dig a little deeper?
14:48Good.
14:49The I in TRAIN stands for Investigative Initiative.
14:53That's two I's.
14:54Never mind.
14:55You don't get the I unless it's under stress, so we're gonna make this interesting.
15:00Okay.
15:01You've got nine minutes to get to the bottom of this.
15:04If you can't, I would recommend we extend your probation and return you to the FTO program.
15:08Nine minutes?
15:09Why not ten?
15:11No, it's eight minutes, 47 seconds.
15:13Tick tock.
15:18So, why were you attempting to pay Tyson Kalishnikov $15,000 in cash?
15:22Because he's my gigolo.
15:24I got a thing for guys who can't move their arms.
15:26Mm-hmm.
15:29Hello?
15:30Yes, arm cast.
15:31Very sexy.
15:33Oh, your husband's in prison.
15:35I mean, your husband is Austin Walker doing three to five in San Quentin for embezzlement.
15:41Is that right?
15:42Austin made a mistake.
15:43Yeah, one with very serious consequences.
15:46Now, did you know that Tyson did four stints in San Quentin?
15:51I mean, that's where he's heading back to now.
15:53And it looks like he's also the lieutenant of the Devil's Crown prison gang.
15:58Now, they run your husband's prison.
16:00Okay, so connecting those dots, I'm guessing that you paid Tyson to keep your husband safe while he's inside.
16:06Is that what's happening?
16:12Tyson said that if I didn't pay him the money by tomorrow, Austin was as good as dead.
16:17He's all I have.
16:18I didn't have a choice.
16:19I didn't know what else to do.
16:21Okay, look, don't worry.
16:22All right?
16:23I'm going to help you.
16:28Sir, I need to call the prison and have Austin Walker put into protective custody light right now.
16:33Already done.
16:33And you still have 25 seconds.
16:36Are you sure your investigation is complete?
16:38Yeah, I think so.
16:39I mean, it's just classic protection racket.
16:42Are you asking me or are you telling me?
16:43No, I'm telling you.
16:45Okay.
16:46Unless I'm missing something.
16:48I didn't say that.
16:50Time's up.
16:53Oh, listen to this one.
16:55A man says that his neighbor's cat is possessed by the pentagram.
16:59There's got to be one tip on that call line that is not totally insane.
17:03All right, let's see.
17:04A lady with a devil-worshipping nephew.
17:07Skip it.
17:08Teenage girl thought that her mailman was the pentagram and was there to snatch her.
17:12Oh, she actually sprayed him with the host.
17:14Next.
17:14Old lady claims her husband committed the murders while he was on shore leave.
17:19Was he in the Navy?
17:20Looks like commercial fisherman.
17:21Attach us to that.
17:23Really?
17:23Commercial fishermen work a lot at night.
17:25Perfect excuse to be out late hunting.
17:27All of our victims had ligature marks from being tied up.
17:30You know who's really good at tying knots?
17:32Fishermen?
17:33Bingo.
17:42Mrs. Oppo Jesper?
17:44We're here about a tip you called in.
17:47I'm sorry.
17:48I shouldn't have done that.
17:50It was a mistake.
17:51Ma'am.
17:53You said your husband is the pentagram killer.
17:55That does not sound like a mistake.
18:00I didn't know what to do.
18:11I found this.
18:19Sandra Owens.
18:20That's the first victim.
18:24Ma'am, where is your husband right now?
18:31He's been dead for seven years.
18:39Thanks very much.
18:44Thanks.
18:47What's going to happen to me?
18:48Well, the detectives are going to have a few more questions for you back at the station.
18:51At the station?
18:52Will you be there?
18:54No, ma'am.
18:54I'm a patrol officer, not an investigator.
18:56Oh.
18:58Um, I'll tell you what.
19:00Why don't you take my card?
19:01If you need anything, give me a call.
19:03My mobile number's on there, all right?
19:05If you'll excuse us just for a moment.
19:06Thanks.
19:11Hey.
19:13That widow looks like she's sweet on you.
19:15Yeah, Nolan gave her his number.
19:16Yes, I was trying to build rapport.
19:18Did it work?
19:19Hard to say.
19:19She insists she didn't know anything about the murders until after her husband died and she found the trophies.
19:23I mean, how could she not have known?
19:25Well, her husband wasn't on the original suspect list,
19:27which means that he was good at flying under the radar.
19:29Well, at least we can eliminate the pentagram killer as a suspect in Cheryl Budney's case.
19:33Let's hope his copycat isn't as skilled at covering his tracks.
19:37Nolan, Juarez, I understand you took the call.
19:40Yes, sir.
19:40We got lucky.
19:41Well, actually, Officer Nolan picked it out.
19:43He thought it sounded credible.
19:44Nice catch.
19:45Look, the mayor asked me to give a press conference announcing the identity of the pentagram killer.
19:50I'd like you two to be there so I can recognize your work.
19:53Yes, sir.
19:53Thank you, sir.
19:54All right, go get cleaned up.
19:55I hope you're going to be on TV.
19:59You think I have time for a blowout?
20:00Absolutely not.
20:02No?
20:02Come on.
20:10You ready?
20:12Yeah.
20:13Let's go.
20:15Is that the widow?
20:18It must be.
20:21You know, I almost attached to that call, but I got pulled to a 211 that turned out to be
20:26a false alarm.
20:27Then you'd be the one on TV and Prim would have realized what a giant mistake he made torpedoing your
20:32detective's exam.
20:33Yeah, something like that.
20:35Instead, I spent the day breathing in hot dumpster fumes while standing guard over a pile of puke for three
20:42hours on the off chance it belonged to our killer.
20:44Did it?
20:45Nope.
20:46It's a sick dog.
20:47Okay, so you had a crappy day.
20:48You've had him before and you'll have him again.
20:50The best part about being on patrol is you never know what's going to happen.
20:53So maybe tomorrow you'll be the big hero.
20:56I would just settle for not having to deal with any bodily fluids.
20:59Yeah, don't be too greedy.
21:03So, do you really believe the widow had no idea?
21:06I don't know.
21:07I mean, there was a time when I couldn't have conceived of not being able to tell that my partner
21:13was keeping something from me, but...
21:15Then I went and hid a whole husband from you.
21:17Yeah, pretty much.
21:18But you know what?
21:19Getting through that made us stronger.
21:21Yeah.
21:22What about you?
21:22Do you think if you found out I was a murderer, would you turn me in?
21:25Absolutely.
21:26Not a moment's hesitation?
21:28I think you should be more worried if I did hesitate.
21:30Yeah.
21:31What about you?
21:31Well, as a cop, it'd be my duty to arrest you.
21:34But I have to say, I would be pretty handy at helping you hide a body.
21:38So romantic.
21:39I know, right?
21:46Hey.
21:47How'd the day go?
21:50Uh, good.
21:51I think Sergeant Bradford said something to me today that made me think I need to dig deeper on our
21:55case, but...
21:57Do you ever read something ten times and still feel like you're missing the point of it?
22:01Performing under pressure takes many forms.
22:04Sometimes physical, so you feel nervous.
22:07Other times mental.
22:09And you just can't see the forest from the trees.
22:11Yeah.
22:12Well, all I can see is trees, so any advice?
22:15Yeah, stop thinking about it.
22:16Take a walk.
22:17Take a shower.
22:18Turn your brain off.
22:20Let your mind find the answer.
22:22In other words, go home.
22:24Yes, sir.
22:25Sleep gonna hurt.
22:26That's right.
22:27I'll see you tomorrow.
22:29Uh, did you come over here just to check on me, or did you need something?
22:33You can keep two in the morning.
22:35I mean, I'm here now.
22:36What's up?
22:44I just received a call from San Quentin Prison.
22:49Apparently, they failed to grasp the urgency of your request to put Austin Walker into protective custody.
22:56When they finally went to move him, he was already dead.
23:02Sorry, son.
23:13That sounds like quite the first day back.
23:16It was.
23:16I mean, in some ways, I feel really good about it.
23:20You know, I didn't freeze, and I handled every crazy obstacle Tim threw at me.
23:25But for the day to end like that...
23:28When your watch commander told you that man had been killed, how did you feel?
23:32Frustrated.
23:32You realize that's the exact word you used yesterday after our visualization exercise?
23:36Well, it's frustrating.
23:37You know, knowing I can be doing everything right, and things still go wrong.
23:41Lack of control is scary, especially when your job involves so much violence.
23:45Hey, when you start to notice those feelings, try focusing on the things you can control.
23:53Tyson is still in custody, and I can work on connecting him to the murder, but what I still don't
23:58get is if Stacy had until today to pay the protection money, why was her husband murdered last night?
24:08I did miss something.
24:13So, our victim had lots of enemies.
24:16At first, Cheryl's neighbors and coworkers were a little hesitant to speak ill of the dead, but...
24:20Yeah, but once he got going, they would not stop.
24:22They would not stop.
24:23That tracks is what we found online.
24:25Her school's unofficial message board has an entire subgroup devoted to hating on her.
24:29The most extreme comments coming from a user going by the handle, gridirongangsta.
24:34We trace the account back to this guy, Conrad Battaglia.
24:37No criminal history, but he lives with his wife, Justine, a mile away from the park, and he coaches football
24:43at Cheryl's school.
24:44So, he's a gridiron something.
24:46Give you a few highlights.
24:47Um, she deserves cancer.
24:50I fantasize about shoving a stapler down her throat, and someone should euthanize the bitch.
24:57Yikes.
24:58Yeah, so bring Conrad in.
25:00People find it easier to lie to officers in uniform, so lock him into a statement and pretend like you
25:05believe everything he says.
25:06In the meantime, we'll blow up all his possible defenses and alibis.
25:09You want us to may bury it?
25:10Not full-on Barney Fife, but don't let him know he's a suspect.
25:14Roger.
25:16Who's Barney Fife?
25:18Okay, every time you ask me a question like that, all I hear is, you're old.
25:22Okay, I'm sorry, sir. I don't know, but really, who is he?
25:24Hello?
25:25Officer Nolan?
25:26It's Opal Jesper?
25:27Uh, hi, Mrs. Jesper.
25:29Can you tell the reporters outside my house to leave?
25:31Oh, uh, no, I really can't.
25:34But if they're trespassing, just call 911.
25:36I have no privacy.
25:37The police took my front door.
25:39Oh, they probably thought there was potential evidence on it.
25:41Well, that's ridiculous.
25:42What could they find?
25:43Mrs. Jesper, look, any questions about the investigation should really be directed to Detective Harper or Detective Lopez.
25:49Meanwhile, I advise you stay with friends or relatives until things settle down a little bit.
25:54And now, I hate to do this, but I have to go.
25:56I'm going to rush you off, okay?
25:57All right?
25:57All right.
25:59Okay.
26:00Let's go.
26:02Where are we going?
26:14Nolan, look.
26:25Hello?
26:26Mr. Pataglia?
26:29Police?
26:30Hello?
26:31Control, 7-9-15.
26:32We have an open door.
26:34We're making entry to the residence to clear it.
26:35Mr. Pataglia!
26:37Police department, we're coming inside your house!
26:46Go.
26:47Go.
26:49Otav, there's a police!
26:50I'm here!
26:55Clear!
26:57Clear!
26:58Come on!
27:09Clear.
27:11Juarez.
27:16The rest of the house is clear.
27:18No sign of Bataglia.
27:217 minute 15, we have a DP at the residence.
27:24Notify Homicide, Watch Commander.
27:26An issue of BOLO for Conrad Bataglia.
27:29Thanks for coming back, Mrs. Walker.
27:31Now, I just need a little more information
27:32before I can charge any.
27:34Anything to help my husband.
27:39Now, we're hoping to identify
27:40some of Mr. Kalashnikov's associates.
27:43I mean, he could have been conducting business
27:44all by himself with both arms and cast.
27:50Um...
27:50During your dealings with him,
27:51did you ever see any of these men?
27:54Um...
27:57Him.
27:58Yeah, it's him.
27:59Uh, I-I-I think I've seen him before.
28:01He's involved, and he scares me.
28:03Hmm.
28:04Are you sure?
28:05I'm positive.
28:06Listen, can you tell me what is going on?
28:08I've called the prison multiple times.
28:09No one will tell me anything about Austin.
28:11I'm getting worried here.
28:12You and your husband's in isolation
28:14where no one can get to him.
28:15They're moving him to a different facility tomorrow
28:17where he'll be safe.
28:20What a relief.
28:25Oh, what a relief.
28:26Thank you, officers.
28:27My God, thank you.
28:33Hello?
28:36Hello?
28:38Austin's alive.
28:39What?
28:40They have him in isolation, so no one can get to him.
28:42They're gonna move me tomorrow.
28:43What the hell are you gonna do now?
28:48Hi.
28:49Give me the phone.
28:50W-I-excuse me?
28:51What?
28:53This is Sergeant Bradford with the LAPD.
28:55This whole conversation's being recorded.
28:57You wanna save me some time and tell me your name,
28:58or you gonna make me run a trace?
29:00Wrong number.
29:01Trace it is.
29:02I don't-I don't understand what's happening right now.
29:05You're under arrest for the murder for hire of your husband.
29:07I don't understand.
29:08Look, we lied.
29:09And I'm sorry to inform you, your husband is dead.
29:12He was killed last night in jail by one of Tyson's cronies.
29:14And look, I couldn't see why you wanted your husband dead
29:17until I read his criminal history again.
29:20No convictions, but multiple phone calls to your house
29:23for domestic violence.
29:24Throw in a mistress and a judge authorized to tap on your phone.
29:27And you just confirmed our suspicions.
29:29Okay.
29:30Oh, my goodness.
29:35Judge has signed the rainy warrant for Conrad.
29:37Bolo's in the system.
29:38Yeah, and we put his car in SVS.
29:40How old was the wife found?
29:41Kitchen floor facing the west wall.
29:43Multiple stab wounds, weapons still outstanding.
29:45So what wife finds out hubby kills Cheryl
29:48and then confronts him?
29:49Hubby panics and kills the wife to silence her.
29:52He realizes what he's done and goes on the run.
29:54Desperate idiot's playbook.
29:55There are no clear prints on the doorknob, just smudges.
29:58What's the time element for when she died?
30:02Go ahead. You got this.
30:03I mean, a body loses heat at a rate of 1.5 degrees per hour.
30:08Thermostat is at 68.
30:09But the body of the victim wasn't that cold when we found it,
30:12so I would say about an hour.
30:1490 minutes tops.
30:15She's right.
30:16Hmm.
30:17What about the canvas?
30:18Uh, not home, not home, all not home.
30:20Home, but didn't see or hear anything.
30:22Harper, search Conrad's social media and emergency contacts.
30:25And if Conrad is running, he's gonna need help.
30:27So here are his closest friends.
30:28Start from the bottom and work your way up.
30:30All right, I'll get Chen's help with this.
30:31She'll take odds, we'll take evens.
30:33Great.
30:49Control, location 9 is unoccupied.
30:55Show me en route to location number 7.
30:57Tell me how you figure that.
30:59All right, location 6, Jose Martinez, his husband Todd.
31:03Should be right up there by that Toyota.
31:08Did you see that?
31:09Yeah, I saw bushes move.
31:10Is that Conrad?
31:11Tor, we have a possible at location 6 on Brightwood.
31:14How do I 19 attach?
31:23Conrad?
31:24I want to see your heads.
31:26715, code 6 on Sussex Battaglia.
31:282300 block Brightwood.
31:30Don't move, show me your heads!
31:31But pursue the Northbound Brightwood!
31:39Get up.
31:40Get up.
31:40Get up.
31:41Get up.
31:42Get up.
31:42Get up.
31:42Get up.
31:42Get up.
31:43Get up.
31:45Get up.
31:46Get up.
31:48Get up.
31:52Are you hurt anywhere else?
31:53Just my head and right here.
31:56All right, take us through what happened slowly.
31:59This man broke into our house and tied us up.
32:02And he made me watch while he kill, while he killed Justine.
32:09I don't know how I got away, but I must have broke the restraints.
32:14He tried to stop me, but I got away, and I just kept running.
32:18He's almost ready for transport.
32:211179 was just reported at 1025 South Butterfield Drive.
32:25That's Opal's address.
32:26Control, 7-man-15. Do you have any more details on the 1179?
32:30There's a man trapped under the homeowner's vehicle. Fire and RA already en route.
32:33Control, attach this to us.
32:35Uh, Chen?
32:36Yeah, what's up?
32:37Would you escort Comrade to the hospital? He's been Miranda's.
32:40Yeah, of course.
32:42What just happened?
32:43Something about the pentagram, Widow. We'll be ready to go in five.
32:46Are they looking for him? The guy who killed my wife?
32:48Can you describe him?
32:50I don't know. Uh, he was white.
32:53Average height. Average weight. He was deranged.
32:56Any idea why he targeted you?
32:59Okay, look, I want to get this guy, alright?
33:02Your wife deserves justice, but white, average height, weight, that's not going to get him.
33:11Does this have anything to do with Cheryl Budney?
33:22Look, I didn't mean to kill her.
33:25I was just so tired of her lies.
33:27We were fighting, and I shoved her.
33:29And I guess she hit her head.
33:30Alright, well, killing her might have been an accident, but carving a pentagram into her stomach was not.
33:36Why didn't you call the police?
33:37I don't know. I-I was scared.
33:39I-I knew you guys would see the post that I made about her,
33:42so I tried to make it look like it was that pentagram guy from the documentary.
33:45But then today, I got a text from Cheryl, and it said that she wanted me to feel the same
33:50pain that I caused.
33:51It's on my phone. Look.
34:13Officers taking fire to a block of Bridewood.
34:16Super has a long gun.
34:1723-31, we're 10-9-7 on Bridewood.
34:21Go, go, go. Ready?
34:28I'm clear!
34:32Go!
35:07Nobody else down Bridewood. He's got a clear shot. Stay off Bridewood.
35:11Anybody hurt?
35:12We're okay.
35:13The department is dead.
35:14Medic took a shot in the leg.
35:16We can't let him escape. We've got to seal him off.
35:19We can't get a unit behind him. There's a fence. The alley doesn't go through.
35:22Can't they just climb over?
35:23Shooter will pick them off as soon as they climb up.
35:25Can I get an airship to help seal off Bridewood to the south?
35:28Copy. Air 11 is en route. ETA is less than three minutes.
35:31He's gonna be gone by then. I can get down the alleyway and just cut him off.
35:34Wait, that's a 40-yard open field run.
35:36Well, if his head pops up, just blow it off.
35:38I'll be all right. Just let me know when you're ready.
35:43I'll be all right.
36:27I'll be all right.
36:39She made it, code for her, and she doesn't want to give up her position. Smart girl.
36:54Stop where you are! Stop right there! Put your hands where I can see them!
36:58Turn around and put your hands in the air.
37:02Put your hands in the air.
37:05Do it now!
37:08Get your hand off your weapon.
37:11Stop where you are!
37:16Stop! Stop where you are!
37:30Shooter's down! Code for it!
37:34I need a medic! The shooter is down!
37:39In a panic, the wife of the alleged pentagram killer attempted to flee, injuring a reporter in the process.
37:45Continuation of the original screen.
37:47Our own Steve Sahagin was almost crushed by the frantic women.
37:52Steve.
37:55Juarez, get on crowd control. Get these people back.
37:57Back, folks. Get out of the waves. Come on.
38:01You want everyone to stand back, and this is a crime scene!
38:10Opal, what happened?
38:12I just wanted them to leave me alone.
38:14I thought you were gonna stay with friends.
38:16What friends?
38:18I tried calling.
38:20None of them want anything to do with me.
38:23It's all gone.
38:24My life.
38:25Friends.
38:27My home.
38:28He took it all.
38:30They can't blame you if you didn't know.
38:36Opal, did you know?
38:38That my husband of 42 years was a killer?
38:42Of course not.
38:45But there, there were some, some things.
38:49He'd give me jewelry that, that I knew we couldn't afford.
38:55He liked me to wear it, and then it would disappear.
38:59And once I, I, I found...
39:05I found a pair of ladies' underwear in the car.
39:10I threw them away, but I didn't ask.
39:14I didn't want to know.
39:19I didn't want to know.
39:31I didn't want to know.
39:33Bailey.
39:35Hey.
39:36I can't leave you alone for a minute.
39:37I know.
39:38How's Carmichael? Is he okay?
39:39Yeah, he's barely scratched.
39:41He's going around telling everyone that he was shot, though.
39:43Well, technically he's not wrong.
39:45Lucy was an absolute badass out there, though.
39:48We're still waiting to hear if the guy she shot's gonna pull through.
39:50Well, patrol found 87 guns at that guy's house.
39:53Looks like he finally found a reason to use them.
39:55That's unbelievable.
39:57How's the reporter?
39:58In surgery.
39:59Opal crushed his leg.
40:00What's gonna happen to her?
40:01Well, about 50 reporters got the whole thing on camera,
40:03so there's not gonna be a lot of wiggle room for the defense.
40:06I mean, pedagram killers, last victims.
40:09Hey.
40:09Hey.
40:10Why are you here?
40:11The, uh, the pedagram widow went over a reporter.
40:14Right, right.
40:17I passed Tim's train test.
40:19Congrats.
40:20Yeah.
40:21I knew you would.
40:22Didn't you have to get punched in the face or something to pass?
40:25Oh, I did.
40:26I mean, she was only like 90 pounds, but still counts, you know.
40:30Anyways, I came to see if there's any news on Lucy's shooting.
40:34Not yet.
40:38Do we know?
40:40Still waiting.
40:41Where is she?
40:47Alright.
40:59They're over there now.
41:08Hey.
41:10Are you hurt?
41:13My God.
41:14You didn't have to take my hero suggestion so literally.
41:17I don't feel like a hero.
41:18At all.
41:20Any news?
41:21He's still in surgery right now.
41:25What if he dies?
41:27What if I killed that guy?
41:30And we'll deal with it.
41:38Jeff Budney made it through surgery.
41:41They're taking him to the ICU.
41:42What?
41:43He's alive?
41:44Now the DA still needs your statement for the shooting inquiry.
41:47And should he die from his injuries at a later time,
41:49the investigation will resume.
41:51I try not to worry about that right now.
41:53Can the statement wait?
41:55Yeah.
41:56Tomorrow morning is fine.
41:58Let's go.
42:05Let's go home.
42:09Let it all go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go.
42:57Damn it.
43:00Damn it.
