00:02Suss! Police!
00:20Damn it, it's locked.
00:21Suss are going down the north roof access stairwell behind a locked door.
00:24Taking the south stairwell to cut him off at the street.
00:30There's a perfect line.
00:31It could be the magic with the name of the light.
00:34All you better do is win the prize.
00:37What do you want?
00:40Oh, that's a first.
00:48Clear.
00:50Clear.
00:56Nolan.
00:59Look.
01:06715.
01:09How do I radio that in?
01:11That's, uh, 415.
01:12Mask with Jelani.
01:13Oh, I'm gonna win for you like I know you want me to do.
01:27are you cleaning or are you just moving the mess around i can't find my keys because someone keeps
01:32letting our toddler play with them i cannot be late for my meeting with the captain well maybe
01:37it could be seen as a power play making them wait to hear your demands they're not demands
01:42they're respectful requests now if he doesn't adjust them to my satisfaction then they become
01:47demands found them key fob casserole she is a culinary visionary just like her mom speaking of
01:54dinner uh what time will you be home i invited a few friends over our friends or your friends
01:59they're community activists in that case i am busy i am filling in on patrol and cases are just piling
02:05up nyla come on the latest corruption scandal exposed a lot of dirty cops and people want answers
02:10isn't that why you are going to see the captain i am just going to tell them the same thing
02:14that i
02:14am telling you we are handling it the department is just as motivated to get bad cops off the street
02:20as you are all right maybe not just as but we are working on it for now historically there's always
02:27a lot of talk about accountability but the second the press moves on it's all swept under the rug i
02:32think it would help if the community heard from an officer who shared their concerns someone like my
02:37gorgeous smart funny talented amazing wife fine but that is just because you said i was funny and not
02:50enough people acknowledge that
02:52hmm
02:52hmm
02:55hmm
02:57hmm
02:58hmm
02:58hmm
02:58hmm
02:59hmm

03:26hmm
03:27hmm
03:27hmm
03:27hmm
03:40What the hell are you doing, Boot?
03:41I'm going to work, sir.
03:42Yeah, I'm not blind.
03:44I'm asking why you've been coming to work like you're leaving for a six-month appointment.
03:47What, this whole thing?
03:47It's an old cross-train trick I picked up from my high school football coach.
03:51Heavy backpack equals easy cardio.
03:53Well, do it on your own time.
03:54Cops don't walk to work.
03:55I know L.A. is not a walking city, but I didn't think y'all would care so much how
03:59I got myself places.
04:00I care when it's an officer's safety issue.
04:02What, you worried someone's going to jump me for my milk money?
04:04No.
04:05I'm worried that some hardcore criminal pissed at you for locking up his buddy might sneak it behind you and
04:08slit your throat.
04:09That'll put an abrupt ending to your easy cardio.
04:12You're a pretty intense guy, you know that?
04:14What's your point?
04:17Woo!
04:18Do we know what day it is!
04:21Yo, I can't believe it's finally playing close there.
04:23I mean, it's normal to be nervous, right?
04:26Yeah, of course.
04:27And listen, Nolan wouldn't have authorized it if he wasn't sure you were ready.
04:31Yeah.
04:32Yeah, yeah, you're right.
04:33I bet your playing close there was a breeze, huh?
04:35Actually, I almost washed out.
04:38But Nolan's not Tim.
04:40And I don't think he's going to mess with your head.
04:42Yeah.
04:42You need to mess with her head.
04:44The only way to make sure she's ready.
04:45Yeah, that's not exactly my style.
04:47Your style is also being evaluated today.
04:50But Watt is a good cop.
04:51She messes up as much your failure as it is hers.
04:54Wait a minute.
04:55Lucy is a great cop, and you almost washed her out.
04:57I did.
04:58But you're not me.
04:59Everyone knows I'm an exceptional T.O.
05:01You, on the other hand, have yet to prove yourself.
05:03It's the only way to prove a T.O. doesn't have to play mind games in order to train a
05:07good rookie.
05:08It's not enough to win.
05:10I have to crush Tim in this competition.
05:12Okay, so the contest is just about T.O. styles?
05:15I mean, what else would it be about?
05:17Nothing.
05:18She thinks it's about the breakup.
05:20And she's not alone.
05:21I am so over the breakup.
05:24We had friendly, professional competition long before we dated, and this is just that.
05:29So, back in uniform.
05:31How does it feel?
05:32Itchy.
05:33I am already sweating.
05:35But we are rooting for you today, Juarez.
05:38Patrol really cannot afford to lose another body right now.
05:43The boys are obsessed with this mass vigilante.
05:46Jack, too.
05:47Whoever he is, he isn't making my job any easier.
05:49Citizen's arrest is perfectly legal.
05:51Yeah, but false imprisonment isn't.
05:52And the fuzzy line between the two is for the jury to decide.
05:55Well, at least he isn't hurting anyone.
05:57Yet.
05:59I'll be on mine, but the captain wants me to sit in on this morning's presentation.
06:02Not at all.
06:03Just don't think I'm going to go easy because we're friendly.
06:05Of course not.
06:06I'll see you up there.
06:08Wow.
06:08Look at you.
06:09Reminds me of the first day we met.
06:11I hate it.
06:12Forgot how much these pants flattened out my ass.
06:14Well, still, it's pretty good to me.
06:16Pretty good?
06:17I moved to have my previous comments stricken from the record.
06:20You ready for your meeting?
06:21The real question is, are they ready for me?
06:24Okay.
06:24Not one word.
06:26I was just going to say thank you both for your sacrifice.
06:29The detectives owe you one.
06:30You've owed me 200 bucks since the Super Bowl.
06:32I want my money.
06:33Understood.
06:34But seriously, if I need a crime scene babysat today, I guess my first call.
06:40We should go.
06:41Yeah.
06:42Have a good meeting.
06:43Thanks.
06:44See you in the night.
06:44Yeah.
06:45Be careful today.
06:46Not a fan of that detective?
06:47Not at liberty to say.
06:50Didn't see your boot in the locker room, Chen.
06:51He's late for roll call.
06:53You'll be in the hole before the day even starts.
06:54He has a few minutes.
06:56Yes, 43 seconds.
06:58Hey, have you guys seen Seth?
06:59No.
07:01Damn it.
07:06That's right.
07:07He's trying to tell me.
07:08All right, everybody, settle down.
07:10It is 8 a.m. on the dot, which means roll call has started.
07:12And Officer Chen's boot is officially...
07:14You're late, boot.
07:16Late.
07:16Sorry, I didn't...
07:18Officer Chen, what's an acceptable excuse for a rookie to be late to roll call?
07:20There isn't one.
07:21That's right, which means today you'll be starting in the loss column.
07:25Moving on.
07:26Lieutenant Gray is in a meeting with a captain and a community activist.
07:30That representative is James Murray.
07:32Look, I know we all have friends lose our pensions over this mess, but they made that bet.
07:36They cross lines we can't cross.
07:38Now it's up to us to regain the community's trust.
07:40Otherwise, we'll be dealing with nonsense like this.
07:44Now, I'm sure you've all heard about this jackass running around trying to be some masked avenger.
07:48He's called the Watcher.
07:50Yeah, I'm not calling him that.
07:55He's just an attention-seeking wannabe desperate for internet fame.
07:58You might be right.
07:59But there has been a measurable spike in crime in the neighborhood since we've been shorthanded.
08:03Look, if the residents start thinking this clown is more reliable than us, we have a huge problem.
08:07That's why today, we're going to be doing some good old-fashioned community policing.
08:11You mean foot patrol?
08:12Yeah, we're not doing that.
08:14Oh.
08:17Fine, but only to show up that masked weirdo.
08:20Everyone, get out there, shake hands, kiss some babies, hand out business cards.
08:24Let the residents feel your presence.
08:26Everyone except Nolan and Juarez, who will be on plainclothes day.
08:29All right, that's it.
08:30Be safe out there.
08:32Huh.
08:33Kind of funny.
08:34When one day you guys are back in uniform, I get to wear my Savvy's.
08:37I'll shoot.
08:37It won't be so funny if Selena doesn't pass.
08:42I wouldn't.
08:44Ooh.
08:46How much coffee is too much coffee?
08:47How many fingers am I holding?
08:49I do, but they're vibrating.
08:50Okay.
08:51Take a deep breath.
08:54All right.
08:55You got this.
08:57All right.
08:57Let's go over how this is going to go.
08:59Today, I am here in a purely observational capacity.
09:02I will not advise, assist, or help you in any way.
09:06Every decision will be yours.
09:08If you get into some trouble that you can't handle, I will step in.
09:11Just know that that will affect your final evaluation.
09:14Understood.
09:15Mount up.
09:23Now, to help simulate the experience of riding solo,
09:26this will be the last time I speak to you until the end of shift.
09:30Finally.
09:30Usually, I can't get you to zip it.
09:33Oh, you were serious.
09:35Okay.
09:36Here we go.
09:37And by we, I mean me.
09:39Because I am riding solo.
09:41You are so lucky.
09:42If Sergeant Bradford was your T.O.,
09:44you'd be spending the rest of your shift scrubbing holding cells with a toothbrush.
09:48Well, I'm glad that he's not my T.O.
09:53Do you want to run alongside the shop while you reconsider your attitude?
09:56No, ma'am.
09:57Sorry.
10:00I don't want to be that kind of T.O.
10:06But you showing up late for your second ever roll call?
10:09Either you don't respect me or...
10:11No, of course not.
10:14Well, you're not taking your training seriously, Ridley.
10:17Officer Chin, I promise you that is not the case.
10:20I...
10:22I know it's no excuse, but I had a doctor's appointment this morning,
10:25and it ran...
10:27It ran late.
10:28So it's not...
10:29It's not going to happen again.
10:32Good.
10:34So, since I'm making all the decisions today,
10:37I guess that means I can do...
10:40This.
10:43Damn.
10:44Okay, I thought for sure that'd get you to crack.
10:47Bye.
10:497 Adam 15, I have an in-progress 2-11 home invasion at 623 Layden.
10:54RP is homeowner Walter Fields, 82.
10:57Advise RP to lock himself in the bathroom
10:59and find out if there are any firearms in the house.
11:04RP has locked himself in the first floor bathroom
11:07and is armed with a handgun.
11:09Control responding code 3.
11:217 Adam 15, shots firing side 2-8-2-7 Layden.
11:24We are...
11:24I am code 6 on scene, making entry sent backup.
11:40I am inside your house.
11:44Come out with your hands up.
11:53Call it in.
11:57I need an RA to my location.
11:59Teenage female, GSW to the chest.
12:02She is conscious and breathing.
12:04Homeowner, this is the police.
12:06Is there anyone in that bathroom with you?
12:08No.
12:09Did you find a guy?
12:10I think I got him.
12:12All right, I'm going to need you to put that gun down.
12:16Is it down?
12:17Yeah.
12:19All right.
12:19I'm going to need you to open the door.
12:21Come toward me nice and slow with your hands where I can see them.
12:28Nice and slow.
12:28Just walk towards me, okay?
12:30I'm going to have to put you in handcuffs.
12:31What?
12:33I'm the one who's being robbed.
12:34No, I understand.
12:35It's standard procedure.
12:36It's not up for debate.
12:38Well, I know, but...
12:40Oh, my God, no.
12:41No.
12:41No, let me go.
12:42That's my granddaughter.
12:44Let me go.
12:47I heard footsteps in the hall.
12:49There have been a lot of break-ins around here lately.
12:51So I thought...
12:53Listen, I...
12:55I need to go to the hospital to make sure she's okay.
12:57I'm sorry, sir.
12:58Oh, please.
12:59She's only 17.
13:01They have to save her.
13:02They're going to do everything they can to help her, okay?
13:09Fill me in.
13:11It's...
13:15I hate playing close to A.
13:18Fine, let's hear it.
13:19Well, Victor missed the 17-year-old granddaughter of homeowner Walter Fields.
13:23An open window in the laundry room suggests she may have been trying to sleep back in after a night
13:27out,
13:28and he mistook her for an intruder.
13:29Thanks.
13:30I'll take it from here.
13:30Okay, well, do you need me to take Walter in for processing?
13:33He's been through enough.
13:34He doesn't need to see the back of his shop.
13:36I'll handle it.
13:45I don't expect you to respond because I know you're not here today, but I need to say something.
13:51I thought I did a pretty good job handling that call, so I don't really understand why you stepped in
13:55to take leave.
13:56You know, besides the fact that I'm supposed to be making all the decisions today,
13:59it undermined my authority with a man who is already more inclined to trust someone who looks like you over
14:04someone who looks like me.
14:06Just something to think about.
14:15Community policing in a city the size of L.A. is a lot more complicated than whatever you're used to
14:19back in Texas.
14:20You mean I can't just pop down to the bingo hall and shake hands with all my cousins and them?
14:25Excuse me, officers?
14:26Yes, ma'am.
14:27What can we do you for?
14:28Would you mind helping me bring my garbage bin in?
14:31It's so heavy.
14:32Yes, ma'am.
14:32I'd be happy to.
14:35You know, I would have thought a woman in as good a shape as yourself would have no problem bringing
14:38this bin in.
14:39Well, just because a woman can do something herself doesn't mean she doesn't enjoy watching a handsome young man do
14:43it for her.
14:44All right, if there's nothing else you need from us, ma'am, we're going to need to be moving on.
14:47You have a great day, ma'am.
14:489-1-1 is a number if you need us again.
14:49Let's go.
14:50She knows what 9-1-1 is.
14:51Well, you told me to be friendly.
14:52That kind of friendly will get you a suit.
14:54Next time, just focus on professional.
14:55Hey, excuse me, sir.
14:57Do you have a minute to talk?
14:58Depends.
14:59What about?
15:00Well, this is Officer Chen.
15:01I'm Officer Ridley.
15:02We're introducing ourselves around the neighborhood.
15:04We're trying to get a sense of what we can do to better serve the community.
15:07Better?
15:07Son, are you new?
15:08Actually, yes, I am.
15:12You're going to have to forgive me.
15:13I'm still learning.
15:15Okay.
15:15Well, then, I'll educate you.
15:19This used to be a nice neighborhood to raise a family.
15:23Then the gangs started moving in and the drugs.
15:25And now the only time the police ever seem to show up is to make an easy arrest or to
15:32use us as an example for young officers like yourself.
15:35See the watcher there?
15:36Now, I don't know if the watcher is helping, hurting, or just playing crazy.
15:41But at least he's here.
15:43And you'd be surprised what a big difference that makes.
15:46Well, sir, next time you got a problem, you can contact me directly, and I will personally make sure that
15:53the police respond.
15:55I just might.
15:59Ridley.
16:01That's good.
16:02I would not have agreed to this if I knew we were doing foot patrol.
16:05Tell me about it.
16:06And James is having people over for dinner tonight, so I can't even put my feet up when I get
16:11home.
16:11Thanks for the invite.
16:12Oh, trust me, you do not want one.
16:14It'll be James, a bunch of angry community members, and then me answering for the sins of the LAPD.
16:21You're right.
16:21I'm good.
16:22How have things been since the scandal broke?
16:24Tense.
16:25I mean, I'm just sick of having the same conversation over and over again.
16:31God, I remember when Wesley and I used to get into it over police procedure.
16:35It was kind of high, but also exhausting.
16:37It's much easier now that he works for the DA's office.
16:40If only I had that option.
16:43Hey, my bag!
16:50Pat me on your back.
16:52Two babies each and we still got it.
16:53Control, I need transport at the corner of Cochran and 8th for a 2-11.
16:57Person at suspect.
16:59Copy.
16:59Show 7 out of 15 in route.
17:04How's the war's doing?
17:05She's doing great.
17:06Me, on the other hand, I'm struggling a little bit.
17:09We had an incident that got a little dicey, and I wound up taking the lead.
17:14Afterwards, she questioned whether I was making the right call.
17:17Well, unless she was dying or on fire, you definitely did not.
17:21I didn't even realize I was doing it.
17:23Instinct just kicked in.
17:24You gotta learn to control that impulse.
17:26Yeah.
17:28I had no idea being on the TO side of playing close date would be this hard.
17:31Of course it's hard.
17:32You've been training her for the past nine months.
17:34You're invested in her success.
17:36But the only way she will succeed is if you give her the room to fail.
17:44What can you tell me about that guy crossing the street?
17:46Late teens.
17:47Early 20s.
17:485 foot 10, 6 foot tall.
17:50Slim builds, colors, and tattoos suggest that he is affiliated.
17:54Without getting any closer, I'd say he's a part of the 6th Street Devils.
17:57What's our authority to stop and talk to him?
18:00Well, the standard for probable cause and detention states that we need to have a reasonable belief
18:04that the person in question has or will commit a crime.
18:07For example, if this was a 11-532-A,
18:09loitering for the purpose of selling drugs, then we could stop him.
18:20Follow that suspect!
18:23LAPD, stop!
18:257 out of 19.
18:25We got shots fired in the alleyway of Beverly.
18:47Sir, the ambulance is on its way.
18:49I'm good, I'm good.
18:50This isn't the first time I've been shot.
18:51You're still going to the hospital.
18:53He hit a car and get away.
18:54Did you get the plane?
18:56The make?
18:58Ridley.
18:59Where did they go?
19:00What direction did they go?
19:06Control 7, Adam 15.
19:07Vehicle stop on 2 Queen Charles Edward 265.
19:10The registered owner, Arnold King, has a no bail out of Long Beach.
19:13Start me another unit and be advised that I am riding solo.
19:17Copy item 15, additional unit in road.
19:21Damn it.
19:24What the hell's taking so long?
19:25Sir, I need you to get back in your car.
19:27You can't just hold me here.
19:29Sir, if you do not get back in your car now,
19:32you will be in violation of Pinot Code Section 148 resisting an officer.
19:39Hey!
19:42Hey!
19:43Hey!
19:56You have my permission to call me a badass.
20:01You are a badass.
20:03You're an embarrassment.
20:05Not only did you fail to radio in your location while chasing an armed suspect,
20:09you are unable to provide any details that might help us identify his vehicle.
20:15These are the fundamentals, Officer Ridley.
20:18Things they teach you the first week at the academy.
20:21There's no excuse, sir.
20:22You're damn right!
20:26Step outside.
20:27I need to speak to Officer Chin for a minute.
20:36Let me be blunt.
20:37Do you think Ridley has what it takes to make it through the FTO program?
20:45I think Officer Ridley shows a lot of potential.
20:49Very diplomatic.
20:50Now I need your armist opinion.
20:52I think he's smart, thoughtful, and empathetic,
20:56but he's made some very basic mistakes,
20:59which I understand at this stage in his training is to be expected.
21:05I think at this point it's too soon to tell.
21:08Every rookie makes mistakes,
21:10but we're under a microscope right now.
21:13So if you ever start to think that he might be a liability,
21:18I need you to let me know right away.
21:20Yes, sir.
21:22Bye.
21:27Officer Chin, I'm sorry.
21:28No, you need to stop apologizing, all right?
21:30Get your head in the game.
21:31Go study your Rook book.
21:33Yes, ma'am.
21:37I hear the vigilantes escalated to attempted murder.
21:40Too bad he got away.
21:41Are you seriously here to gloat about how badly my rookie screwed up?
21:44Of course not.
21:45A little.
21:46Look, being a T.O. is hard.
21:49Being a good T.O. is even harder.
21:52First lesson I learned is you can't let their failures be your fault.
21:55Not the beginning.
21:56You have to make those failures a teachable moment.
21:58Well, that's very enlightened of you.
22:00Don't sound so surprised.
22:01How's it going with Officer Texas?
22:04So far, so good.
22:05Still got half a shift left.
22:06Hmm.
22:10Why are you trying to leave the scene before the ambulance arrived?
22:13I promised my grandma I'd take her to church.
22:15And you were going to take her with a bullet in your shoulder?
22:16She hates missing the homily.
22:18Well, you have been very unhelpful.
22:20I'm a devil, baby.
22:21Devils take it to the grave.
22:22Oh, what a motto.
22:24You think with there being so many cops in the neighborhood, the Watcher would have
22:27picked a different day to escalate to attempted murder.
22:29Yeah, but it wasn't just an escalation.
22:31This was a completely different M.O.
22:33I mean, everyone else was stopped while committing a crime.
22:36This doesn't feel like his other missions.
22:38This one feels personal.
22:39Okay, so what do those other missions have in common?
22:42They're almost all single perpetrator robberies or assaults.
22:45All in the neighborhood.
22:46And patrol's long response times have been giving him a chance to get to the scenes first.
22:52I might have an idea.
22:54So where exactly do you live?
22:55Must be pretty close to the station.
22:57Over on Stanley.
22:58I can smell the tarp hits from my apartment.
23:00Probably why I got such a good deal.
23:03Hey, what's up?
23:04Harper and I have a plan to track down the vigilante.
23:07Can you and your boot back us up?
23:08Yeah, absolutely.
23:14Seven out of 100, what's your ETA for that 415 in the alley off Fuller?
23:19Still six minutes out.
23:20Be advised, original R.P. has called back multiple times to report screaming from that event.
23:24Copy.
23:25We'll be there as soon as we can.
23:32Police!
23:33Hands up!
23:34Police!
23:34Show me your hands!
23:34Show me your hands!
23:35Search him, boot.
23:36Keep your hands on your head!
23:37I got a gun the whole front of my right hip.
23:41It's a 9mm.
23:43Same as the one used to shoot Bicho.
23:45Hold on, hold on.
23:46I didn't shoot anybody.
23:49Thomas Forsythe, you're under arrest for attempted murder.
23:53I want a lawyer.
23:55Get up!
24:00It looks like you had a pretty eventful plainclothes day, officer-wise.
24:04Yes, sir.
24:06Had a few missteps, as did Officer Nolan.
24:09But overall, I'm impressed on how you handled some tricky calls today.
24:15I mean, does that mean I passed?
24:18Yes, you passed.
24:23Thank you, sir.
24:24You're welcome.
24:25Now, Officer Nolan, for a first-time T.O., not terrible.
24:30But definitely room for improvement.
24:33Yes, sir.
24:34All right.
24:35That's all.
24:36Good job.
24:39Explain something to us, Tom.
24:40What makes a middle-aged guy, a former cop, decide to start running around his neighborhood in a mask playing
24:45superhero?
24:46My client saw a need in the community and used his training as a retired law enforcement officer to lend
24:50a hand.
24:51I just wanted to make my neighborhood safer.
24:53By shooting gangbangers?
24:54I told you, that wasn't me.
24:55Check my alibi.
24:56We are, but why carry a gun if you didn't intend to use it?
24:59Come on.
25:00You know any cops, active or retired, who aren't carrying at all times?
25:19So his alibi checks out.
25:21Which means we've got a copycat.
25:26Woo!
25:28I wasn't sure if you wanted to go out after your shift, so I stashed this in the freezer just
25:32in case.
25:33Let me guess, the ice cream in there was for if I failed?
25:36Yes.
25:37But that doesn't mean we can't still eat it.
25:39See, now we're talking.
25:42How's it look?
25:44Oh, girl, it looks like you took on a dude twice your size and still won.
25:48Here's to you and being an absolute badass and crushing your plainclothes day.
25:58I am quite proud of myself.
26:00As well as you should be.
26:02I mean, look how far you've come in the last nine months, how much you've grown.
26:06It's crazy thinking back to that first shift.
26:09I was in so far over my head, I can't believe I didn't get washed out.
26:14How are things going with Seth?
26:18Yeah, he had a pretty crap day.
26:21I don't know what the answer is.
26:22That's why I think we need to narrow down our action items and put them in writing for the captain.
26:28Hey, there she is.
26:30Uh, everyone, this is my wife, Nyla.
26:38Are you here to give us some real answers?
26:40Because if you're just going to parrot the department line, I'm not interested.
26:43Okay, let's just give her a few minutes to settle in, okay, George?
26:46Help yourself to some more food and wine.
26:49I'm so sorry it got a little bigger than I planned.
26:52You think?
26:52You said a few.
26:53What version of the English language is this a few?
26:57I do not appreciate being ambushed in my own home.
27:00It's not an ambush.
27:02Word got around, okay?
27:04More people wanted to come.
27:05What was I supposed to say?
27:06No.
27:06It's a complete sentence, James.
27:10Where are you going?
27:11To change.
27:32Oh, could you get it?
27:34I used up all my steps for the day.
27:35Hmm, okay.
27:38Oh.
27:42It's Nyla.
27:46Hey, everything okay?
27:48Was the dinner a disaster?
27:49If by dinner you mean town hall meeting in my living room with 20 strangers, then yes.
27:54He didn't.
27:55Oh, he did.
27:55I'm sure James didn't mean for it to get that big.
27:58He probably...
28:00I'm going to stop talking and go check on the kids.
28:06What did you say to him when you left?
28:08Oh, uh, nothing because I climbed out the window.
28:12I am not proud of it.
28:14Why not?
28:15I'd be proud of myself for not burning the house down.
28:18It's James.
28:21Tell James we're doing a spouse swap.
28:23I get you.
28:24He can have Wesley.
28:25That would solve a lot of problems.
28:30You know it's illegal to live in a vehicle parked on the street?
28:32Oh, sweet suffering, Lord.
28:33You scared the crap out of me.
28:34Yeah, exactly.
28:35You're completely exposed.
28:36Not to mention it's against the law, which you're sworn to uphold.
28:39Of course.
28:40But I can't afford to bring a place right now, all right?
28:42I've got some debts to repay.
28:44That doesn't make it better.
28:45Officers in financial trouble are much easier to corrupt.
28:48What if someone steals your vehicle?
28:49Or breaks into it and steals your service weapon?
28:51Or police equipment?
28:53You'd be terminated on the spot, which is exactly what I should do right now.
28:56No, wait.
28:56Don't do that.
28:57Please.
28:57I need this.
29:04I screwed up.
29:06All right.
29:06I played football in college, and I thought I was going pro.
29:10So I spent some money before I technically had it, and...
29:12You blew out your knee, jumped off the roof at a frat party like an idiot.
29:17Which is a tragedy, because you were destined to be one hell of a running back.
29:20Well, all that's in the past.
29:22And right now, I'm giving you 24 hours to find yourself a legal place to live.
29:26Otherwise, you're going to have to find yourself a third career to screw up.
29:36Mr. Fields?
29:38I'm...
29:39I remember.
29:41It's hard to forget the worst moment of your life.
29:49So, um...
29:51How's Chelsea?
29:52Ten hours in surgery.
29:53And they say she's...
29:55She's going to need another one in a couple of days.
29:58Her parents will be here by then.
30:04Hey, tell me.
30:05How do families survive something like this?
30:09I mean, how...
30:11How am I supposed to?
30:13Well, it isn't easy.
30:15But it is possible.
30:17It just takes time.
30:20I don't...
30:21I don't think I have enough years left in me.
30:25I mean, even if Chelsea and my daughter find it in themselves to forgive me, I'll never forgive myself.
30:30Okay.
30:31It was an accident.
30:33I don't understand.
30:35When did I get so afraid?
30:38You know, I was...
30:39I was the man that people called in a crisis.
30:43Suddenly, my daughter talks to me like I'm a...
30:45A child.
30:48You shouldn't do that.
30:50You know, did you remember to do this?
30:56She begged me to give that gun up.
31:00She said she would pay for a better security system.
31:04A better security system.
31:07And I told her no.
31:08I said no.
31:10Come on, I can take care of myself.
31:12Because, you know, giving up the gun was admitting defeat.
31:16It was like...
31:18Acknowledging that you're not the man that you thought you were.
31:23And that terrified me.
31:25You know?
31:25Now, her little girl's in there fighting for her life.
31:29Because I was too proud to accept my own limitations.
31:33I was too scared.
31:36Of looking feeble.
31:38And then...
31:39All that fear.
31:41The second that I saw Chelsea laying on that floor,
31:45I realized that I didn't know what fear was.
31:49I...
31:50I had no idea.
31:58Hey.
31:59Hey.
31:59Hey, I, uh...
32:01Got the shop all set up.
32:02I came in early to top it off with some gas.
32:04I put some air in the tires.
32:05I even got you a coffee.
32:07You know that doesn't wipe the slate clean
32:09from yesterday's mistakes, right?
32:11Yes, ma'am.
32:13But actually, I wanted to talk to you about that.
32:15The reason I came in late yesterday
32:16and I took my eye off the ball with the vigilante.
32:22Four years ago, I was diagnosed with cancer.
32:25And it was aggressive.
32:27And...
32:28My eyes weren't very good.
32:30But I did...
32:30I did beat it.
32:32But a week ago, I went in to get some routine blood work done.
32:36And my results came back as irregular.
32:40I'm sorry.
32:42That sounds incredibly stressful.
32:45Seth, you know...
32:47I'm-I'm the one that's responsible for your safety on the job.
32:51And you-you really should have told me.
32:53I know.
32:54I know.
32:54It's just...
32:56that people treat you different when they know that you're sick.
32:59Yeah.
33:00But there's no excuses.
33:02You're right.
33:03And I should have told you.
33:05When do you get the results back?
33:08Soon.
33:09I hope.
33:10But...
33:12It feels like forever.
33:14Yeah.
33:15There's nothing we can do about that now, right?
33:19What do you say we focus on other people's problems for today?
33:21I'd love that.
33:23We have a lead on the copycat vigilante.
33:25Midnight shift caught a homicide.
33:27A kid from the same gang as our shooting victim yesterday.
33:29And witnesses saw the watcher running from the scene.
33:32We dug in and found that both victims were persons of interest in the murder of an 18-year-old
33:35girl.
33:35Ciena Sanchez shot to death six months ago.
33:38But the DA's office couldn't convince anyone to testify against the gang, and so the case fell apart.
33:42So you're thinking someone from Ciena's family is out for vengeance?
33:45Makes sense.
33:46Apparently our two victims bragged openly about the murder.
33:49We made a list of all her family and friends that need to have their alibis checked.
33:52We were hoping patrol would help us knock those out.
33:54Of course.
33:55Whatever you need.
33:56The mother's gonna need someone with a soft touch.
33:59I'll send Nolan Juarez.
34:00They'll be sensitive.
34:01Perfect.
34:02Emilda Sanchez, 47, widow.
34:05Any other kids?
34:06No, just Ciena.
34:08I mean, to lose her husband and her child within a few years, I mean, that'll break her heart.
34:14And heart and curse.
34:16Lopez just smashed Emilda's car to a traffic cam footage leaving the area of both shootings.
34:21She's our copycat.
34:23Remember, sympathetic or not, she's our murder suspect considered armed and dangerous.
34:27I'll copy that.
34:30Looks like the Sixth Street Devils have figured out Emilda's the killer, too.
34:44Control, seven out of 15.
34:46I have at least four armed men outside 2202 Norton.
34:49No sign of Emilda Sanchez, homeowner.
34:51I'm assuming more armed suspects inside.
34:53Requesting backup and airship.
34:56Code three.
34:56Copy, out of 15.
34:57Backup and airship are en route.
34:58What about Emilda?
34:59Let's go see what we can see.
35:16Control, be advised, 715's code six approaching Sanchez residents from the rear.
35:22Officer, advise responding units, possible blue-on-blue.
35:30Shut up!
35:31Out of me!
35:33Let her go!
35:34They killed my daughter!
35:35Back away!
35:39Behind the bridge.
35:45Seven out of 100 shots fired at our own location.
36:05Set them out, 15.
36:07We are under fire in the foot alley in the east side of the detached garage.
36:10Damn.
36:16Hey, what's your position at a liberal use of flashbangs?
36:19Do it!
36:25Chet, we're gonna flashbang them.
36:26Be ready.
36:27They're low on ammo.
36:28Just wait for the reload.
36:29Copy.
36:35Now!
36:36Now!
36:42Let's go!
36:47Not a bad hit for a running back.
36:50Jan, take him.
36:53Let's go.
36:54Nolan, we're coming up behind them.
36:56Copy that.
36:57We're in the foot alley.
36:58We have four shooters bolted up behind the Honda.
37:00Sixth Street Devils!
37:01You are surrounded and outgunned.
37:03You have five seconds to lay down your guns.
37:06Get on the ground.
37:07Arms and legs sprayed.
37:14Come on.
37:17Get up.
37:20You, down.
37:22Secure Emilda.
37:24Drop the gun!
37:26Do it right now!
37:27Drop it!
37:28Emilda, drop the gun.
37:31Look around.
37:33There's no chance of you walking out of this alive unless you do what I say.
37:36I don't care!
37:38They killed my daughter!
37:39They deserve to die!
37:41Every last one of them!
37:43Maybe.
37:45But if you don't let them go, I will be forced to end your life in order to save his.
37:50Does that sound like justice to you?
37:52I want to die.
37:55But I don't want to kill a grieving mother for avenging her daughter's murder.
38:00Please.
38:02Please.
38:11On your knees.
38:12On your knees.
38:23Three days in.
38:25How are you feeling?
38:26Well, I was like an imposter.
38:28But there have been a few moments where I felt like I was making a difference that has made all
38:33those other times worth it.
38:35What about you?
38:36It doesn't really matter at this point.
38:38Unless one of y'all haven't moved me, I can rent off and cheap.
38:40Oh.
38:41Sorry.
38:42No worries.
38:43Well, it was great working with y'all, no matter how briefly.
38:45What are you talking about?
38:47Well, Tim's bouncing me.
38:48He found out I was living in my car and gave me 24 hours to find a legal residence.
38:53We'll let you be up in a few hours.
38:55So find something.
38:56Well, I can't find a place to rent it and move in by tonight.
39:00I might have a solution.
39:12So, how mad are you?
39:16Pretty mad.
39:18How mad are you?
39:20Pretty mad.
39:23Why don't you just call it even?
39:26Yeah, I would love to, but I don't think we should.
39:32Okay.
39:34What exactly does that mean?
39:40Sometimes I worry that we got married too fast.
39:43Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
39:44Wait, wait, wait, what?
39:48Nyla, we've built a great life together.
39:50We have a beautiful daughter.
39:51We love each other.
39:53We do.
39:53Dude, I love you, James, but that does not change what I do for a living.
39:59Something I also love is in direct conflict with your work.
40:04Which is equally important to me.
40:07Yeah.
40:10Then I guess we have to work at trying to figure out a pathway through this.
40:28How about I run you a bath while you kiss the kids goodnight?
40:35That sounds good.
40:38There's no way we were that clueless.
40:40I mean, I know we were rookies, but we had some common sense.
40:44No rookie has common sense.
40:46After my first day as a T.O., I wrote Harper a very long apology letter and sent her a
40:52Spoggio certificate.
40:53Aw.
40:54Aw.
40:57Forget it.
40:58You made my life hell.
41:00Besides, any amount of gratitude you might have been owed was more than paid off while we were dating.
41:05Fair enough.
41:08All right, that is it for me.
41:09I'm going to go home and soak my entire body.
41:11Be nice.
41:12All right, have a good night.
41:13See you tomorrow.
41:14Bye.
41:19So, uh, your boot handled himself okay out there today?
41:24Yeah.
41:25He's, um, yeah, we're figuring it out.
41:30How was Texas the rest of the day?
41:35About to find out.
41:37Oh.
41:38Time's up, boot.
41:40You find a place to live?
41:41Howdy.
41:42I sure did.
41:43Let me introduce you to my new landlord.
41:47Bradford, just welcoming the kid to the neighborhood.
41:51Pass him back to my boot.
41:54It's only temporary until I bank enough money to get my own place.
41:57Yeah, that's what every guy said when they first moved into that lot.
42:01All right, I'll see you tomorrow.
42:02You buy yourself another shift.
42:06Don't listen to Bradford.
42:08This place is Shangri-La.
42:10All the beer, barbecue, and sports you want.
42:13And pants are always optional.
42:17Things are gonna get better.
42:21Huh?
42:32You're welcome.
42:36You're welcome.
42:37You're welcome.
42:37You're welcome.
42:39You're welcome.
42:40You're welcome.
42:40You're welcome.
42:40You're welcome.
42:40You're welcome.
42:40You're welcome.
42:40You're welcome.
42:40You're welcome.
42:40You're welcome.
42:41You're welcome.
42:43You're welcome.
42:45You're welcome.
42:56Damn it.
