00:03Hey, you're not nervous I'm going to embarrass you in front of your old captain, are you?
00:07Of course not. I don't know why I'm so anxious.
00:09Russ has always been one of my biggest champions.
00:11He's the one that pushed me to go to Officer Kennedy's squad for my first tour.
00:15Well, I'm sure he's not coming all the way to L.A.
00:17so that he could tell you he's disappointed with getting you.
00:19I just wish he would give me some sort of idea what this is about, but that's Russ.
00:23There she is!
00:24Hey, Russ! It's so good to see you!
00:27Okay.
00:28John Nolan.
00:28Colonel Russell Wilkes, please, call me Russ.
00:31It's a pleasure to finally meet the man behind the story.
00:34Yeah, likewise. Sit down.
00:36I really appreciate you being here, John.
00:39No, I didn't give away too much over the phone, but what I'm here to discuss would affect both your
00:43lives.
00:43It seems only fair to include you in the conversation.
00:46The SecDef has tasked me with putting together a working group inside the Pentagon.
00:50Wow.
00:51A team of my own choosing that will spearhead bring me battlefield medicine into the 22nd century.
00:55It's the most consequential assignment in my career.
00:58And you are the first person I'm asking to be a part of this.
01:04I mean, it's an honor just to be nominated.
01:06Totally. Russ is a genius.
01:08He could recruit anyone for this working group.
01:11And the fact that he called me first, I mean, that's pretty great.
01:15Yeah.
01:15A hundred percent.
01:16That's so cool.
01:17I mean, our life is perfect right now.
01:20There's no way we're messing that up.

03:24hold up you got
03:25screen and room kind of money depends on which one of us you ask wesley is the king of frugality
03:30so he would definitely say no but i lived on credit cards until i met him so i'm way more
03:35comfortable
03:36pushing the envelope hey nolan did you tell officer hart that the shooters last night were furries
03:43no i said they were wearing hoodies are you taking the case yeah do you mind just walking us through
03:48it yeah bailey and i were coming back from dinner at central station market date night no her former
03:53commanding officer came to offer her a job pentagon think tank wow you really married outside of your
04:00league i know right so is she gonna take it no uh it would mean relocating to dc so it's
04:05a non-starter
04:05for us i mean it might be a non-starter for you but i guarantee that your overachiever of a
04:09wife is
04:10seriously thinking about it no actually she was laughing it off when we talked about oh my god she's
04:16actually thinking about it seriously okay well no no if that's something she really wants to do
04:21relocating to dc could be cool it's not i spent time there during my joint ops days it took me
04:26about
04:26three weeks to unclench every time i came home thank you for that insight so any clarity on the
04:32victim fred wilson 48 cpa married no kids no criminal record making him an unlikely candidate
04:39for a targeted assassination is there anything else about the shooters that you didn't give heart
04:44sorry i did not get a good look at them what about cctv anything there they were pretty covered up
04:50but
04:52take a look at this
04:58uh looks like the litter's sf that would make him southern front no visible tattoos on the second
05:04shooter huh yeah so why would a member of a white supremacist gang partner up with a black man to
05:12execute a civilian in broad daylight told you he'd spot it you trained him well could be that our
05:17innocent cpa was helping the southern front to launder money or maybe he had a drug problem and
05:23owed them money we're trying to get the me to rush the talk screen but he's dodging our calls oh
05:28say
05:28no more i'll go deliver the ask in person let me collect my boot
05:34hey do you know what this is an iron you know what it's not a machete i am due in
05:40court in two hours
05:41to testify about a man attacking people on a bus with a machete okay something must have got switched
05:45around the evidence locker we'll figure it out no no the case is time not waived if we don't find
05:50it fast that psycho is going to be let free okay have you told the prosecutor no it's wesley and
05:56i am
05:56just trying to keep him in blissful ignorance as long as possible help me that's the case number no i
06:01know but it's wrong the case number isn't wrong the item might be wrong but numbers are just numbers
06:09fine um so the point is i have to be at court uh and and i need that machete like
06:15asap case number
06:16oh okay uh we're not gonna find it by using the case number the numbers got switched well if you
06:21don't have the case number then i can't help you oh wesley's gonna kill me it's uh relax maybe it's
06:26just a typo right the first eight numbers are the date the crime was on january 20th try 2010 2026.
06:37oh 2021 2025. are you sure you use the new data entry procedure we changed it a few months ago
06:53of
06:53course i did i keep but i wasn't the one who logged the entry because you wouldn't approve the overtime
07:00i had smitty do it what the hell is your problem uh good morning i have bent over backwards to
07:09treat
07:09you well and this is how you repay me i don't i'm sorry i don't know what's happening right now
07:13like
07:13hell you know your little innocent act would be a lot more believable if they weren't in your office
07:18just know this if you go through with it i will do everything in my power to absolutely destroy you
07:31hi who are you what are you doing in my office and why has it sent vivian into a rage
07:34spiral rita
07:35sanchez this is bradley worth we work with the democratic party and we want you to run for
07:40district attorney and that would make sense that's a hard no for me by the way but thanks for stopping
07:46by look you obviously know that vivian eckhart's running on a post since del monte dropped out of
07:49the race yeah but that was a month ago why come to me now candidly we've been having a hard
07:53time
07:53finding someone to take up his mantle so i'm your last choice hardly
08:02look mr evers i wish there was time for us to do our usual dance of seduction and ego stroking
08:08but
08:08as you rightly pointed out we're up against it the deadline to enter this race is in three days and
08:12vivian becoming da is worst case scenario for the people of the city i mean she has the most
08:16regressive record in your office oh i agree but there's zero chance of me beating her i was
08:20temporarily disbarred because of your dealings with elijah stone we know yeah and we are prepared
08:24to embrace that i mean you're a hero who put his life and career on the line to take down
08:29a very
08:29dangerous kingpin voters love a man who's willing to stand up for what's right not to mention you're
08:34married to a cop which automatically makes you a more attractive candidate to anyone worried that
08:39progressive means soft on crime look i don't want vivian to win any more than you do but but nothing
08:45a vivian victory will hurt a lot of people and right now you're our last hope at stopping her
08:50it may be a long shot but isn't it worth the risk
08:53i thought you didn't have time to stroke my ego
09:00you have to let me see i don't actually on tv the family has to identify the body yeah we
09:06don't do
09:06that anymore that's right ma'am it's no longer policy but trust me it's for the best seeing your
09:12loved one like that it it changes how you remember them forever i don't understand fred was a saint
09:20why would someone want to kill him well that's what we're trying to figure out he's really dead
09:27yes ma'am i'm afraid so and we are so sorry for your loss okay thank you
09:37thanks for the assist grief makes people a little crazy and i don't like dealing with
09:43them when they're normal why you work with the dead i suppose
09:48uh anything jump out at you the preliminary autopsy no a run-of-the-mill gun homicide the
09:53bullet to the head killed him instantly but the the shot to the body was fatal as well any signs
09:57of
09:57drug use no but the the talk screen is underway i'll let harper and lopez know the second it
10:03comes in perfect thank you very much i once had a widower insist on seeing his wife's body back when
10:09i was in sugarland ended up suing the city for mental anguish did he win no case got dismissed when
10:15he was convicted of her murder wow hey please let her go whoa hi hi it's all it's all good
10:23she's
10:23she's fine i'm fine yeah i can see that but two minutes ago you were grieving i'm still grieving it
10:30manifests itself in unknowable ways right but you brought your boyfriend to help you identify your
10:35husband's body well i needed emotional support she's very sensitive yeah well you can emotionally
10:43support each other on the way to the station let's go oh this way this way yes okay put your
10:49hands down
10:49yes sir wow i know this looks bad understatement your husband was murdered and in less than 24 hours
10:58you were getting busy with your side piece down the hall from his body i didn't even want to be
11:03there
11:04uh i told faith it would look weird but she insisted so you were just trying to be a good
11:11boyfriend
11:11todd is a terrible boyfriend he's a lot of fun but anything that requires emotional depth okay what about
11:18fred what was he like he was always super cool anytime that i came by you're saying fred knew about
11:25the affair it wasn't an affair it was an open marriage the whole thing was fred's idea guy wanted
11:32a little bit of peace is it possible that todd wanted you all to himself listen i am twice divorced
11:40i am still paying alimony to the first i am not trying to put a ring on it there's a
11:45reason why todd
11:46todd is divorced todd is a good time like coney island fred on the other hand was deep
11:56and soulful and romantic like paris
12:04coney island is fun to visit but you don't move there oh her paris what do you think i think
12:11people
12:11look crazy but neither of them is a physical match for the shooters still doesn't rule out murder for
12:17hire um yeah did you put wesley up to this no idea what you're talking about but if it's pissing
12:24you
12:24off i'm happy to take credit if he insists on moving forward i can't guarantee that i'll be able to

12:46stopped by she told you i was running for d.a wait you're running for d.a since when no
12:52wait it got
12:52sprung on me this morning what does that mean some people came to talk to me about taking over sean's
12:56campaign and you told them no i did initially but but now you're thinking about it i mean i'd
13:04at least like to discuss it but i am supposed to be on my way to court right now only
13:09lucy
13:09texted to tell me that our key piece of evidence is missing so is there any chance that we can
13:13just
13:13table this until tonight fine but only because yelling at you in the bullpen might come across
13:17is unprofessional thank you i love you everything okay are you free for dinner tonight it depends can
13:28i bring james as long as you tell him he has to be team lopez on the penalty of death
13:33i will be sure
13:34to prep him i remember lucy gave me the machete and i logged it like i always do okay so
13:41that right there
13:42is the problem smithy the system changed most of the world uses day month year month day year
13:47was causing all of these issues for us with our international cases which is why we switched
13:52you know didn't you read the memo sorry wait i just heard that out loud of course you didn't
13:57important memos are always covered in the roll call why do i have a panicked ada knocking on my door
14:04to ask for my help to find a missing machete because smithy wasn't listening when he went over the
14:08change in how we file case numbers what the day month year thing yeah i didn't go over it my
14:15last
14:15day as watch commander was crazy i left it for you to do i thought you handled it oh it's
14:19not my fault
14:20it's yours everyone got the memo it's still your fault smithy well it's still on him for trusting me
14:25i didn't trust you i thought he covered it and i just didn't follow up i can't believe i dropped
14:29the
14:29ball i don't care whose fault it is i need the machete smithy use the old system right try zero
14:35one
14:36twenty twenty twenty six i i can't it's a drop down menu and there's no 20th month what so you
14:41can enter the 20th month but you can't retrieve the 20th month correct no that's wrong it shouldn't
14:45work that way but that is how it works wesley says the judge is losing his patience if you can't
14:52produce the evidence he's prepared to dismiss the case guys this is bigger than one case everything
14:57smithy log has been misfiled going back two months did the widow shed some light uh not exactly but
15:04her doorbell cam did this is from two days ago the car is registered to a rider frost known member
15:10of the southern front well that tattoo is a match definitely could be our shooter any idea who the
15:14other fella is not yet but his tats are 54 street gang besides the racial element don't sf and the
15:20five four compete for the same meth business they did up until a few months ago when the armenians
15:24pushed southern front further into the valley but they are certainly not allies they case the garage
15:29but not the house any idea what they were looking for we've got a last known for ryder we're hoping
15:34you go
15:34ask him
15:45wait
15:50control and pursue the suspect at dreamworld lake apartments some backup
16:08come on come on
16:29get your hands on your head down on your knees
16:59I'm sorry are these cases from the future apparently the system didn't know what to
17:03do with month 20 and so it just made the math work and 12 months plus 8 is August 20
17:0727 cases from 21st
17:09become September of next year and so on this is unbelievable the judge granted a continuance
17:14but we need the machete by noon tomorrow yep don't worry we will have it I'll stick around I feel
17:18responsible it's completely on me I don't should have clarified you are on your way out okay you
17:22guys are both Spartacus okay let's please start opening the boxes are you coming no
17:29Russ I thought you had a flight to catch I do but I couldn't leave LA without making one last
17:33appeal well I guess you better come in then thank you oh really made a nice life for yourself here
17:42noon I can uh I can see why you'd hesitate before giving it up but anything I can say to
17:51convince
17:52you can I ask why I'm not a doctor or scientist I don't have a PhD why are you asking
17:59me maybe
18:00I've been around long enough to know that having a few extra letters after your name doesn't make
18:03you a genius I also know that if I bring you a problem you won't rest until you've looked at
18:07it
18:07from every conceivable angle twice before bringing me a solution what if I can't find a solution hell
18:14girl that's why they call it a think tank does me no good to have a bunch of identical people
18:17with
18:18identical viewpoints looking in identical directions baseball team can't be all pitchers
18:24need somebody to play shortstop all right I miss my flight if I don't get going so you know I
18:29take
18:29a few days to think about it talk it over with your man and call me I will you know
18:38noon if you don't
18:39want the job because it's not the right fit or the right time that's fine I get it but deciding
18:43that
18:44you're not good enough before somebody else can that's the coward's way I know you're not a coward
18:52no sir I'm not giddy up
19:07yeah all right okay thanks for the update suspect in the central station market shooting fell to
19:13his death that's awful yeah I got that he was an action hero trying to leap between two buildings
19:17any leads on the second shooter no but the brass has been blown up my phone you know a guy
19:21falls to
19:22his death in a police pursuit everyone's got questions captain always a pleasure I do not miss
19:30that I don't think I've seen him sleep more than four consecutive hours since he took this job
19:34I know being sidelined for the president's visit shook him up and even though it was more of a CYA
19:40decision by the brass an indictment on his performance the optics weren't great for him
19:45do you think he should be worried I think that watch commander is a thinkless job you're not in the
19:50field but you're responsible for every knucklehead that is patrol officers want resources you can't
19:54give them the brass expects results that you realistically can't produce and when there's
20:00bad press and they're looking for a head to roll right I didn't think of it that way because I
20:04made it
20:05look easy he'll get the hang of it the machete yes I gotta call Wesley I way to beat on
20:16that
20:23oh yeah that sounds horrible it wasn't pretty that's for sure Nolan and I barely had time to
20:28twist before it was all over so where does that leave the case still trying to ID the second shooter
20:37hey did you know the Armenians pushed the southern front's meth trade deeper into the deeper into the
20:42valley yep happened a few months ago that's why I read every gang report the department puts out and
20:47I haven't seen anything about that yeah see those reports only get you so far I mean the best
20:51information is usually through word of mouth which is great for me because I know people from all over
20:56the city well how can I compete with that when I just got here it takes time to cultivate that
21:01kind
21:02of trust true but I mean you'd be shocked by what some of these low-level game makers put on
21:06social media
21:07the Ellie gang subreddit is a great resource but I gotta stay up anyway I've got a 2 a.m.
21:13zoom date
21:13with Raj why don't I show you some of my favorite accounts to follow who knows you might see something
21:19on writer all right let's go coach I'm ready hey good to see ya you too how you doing thought
21:27we might
21:27eat this oh very thoughtful what do you guys think should we crack it now or save it for dinner
21:33my
21:34vote is now okay and don't be stingy with the pores everyone clear on the plan oh yes yes James
21:41snows
21:42agree with everything you say and keep the starry-eyed reformer talk on our minimum perfect
21:48operation killer dream is a go he has a point we complain all the time about undocumented witnesses
21:55being too scared to testify instituting a policy that would protect them from deportation that would
22:01be a game changer I thought it was supposed to be team Lopez I know but it's a good idea
22:06I'm not saying
22:07it's not a good idea but I think we're getting away from the larger point which is we'd be opening
22:13our
22:13lives up to public scrutiny which would be hard enough for you and me and I worry what it'll do
22:19to the kids so do I but I also want them to grow up knowing that their father is willing
22:25to fight
22:25for the rights of everybody even when it's difficult hey ma'am what you started it think of what I'd
22:33be in
22:33the position to influence as the DA I could end cash bail expand victim services emphasize counseling
22:40institutional change is always hard right but does that mean that I shouldn't try what about the
22:45house yeah well we would probably have to wait on that I mean optics would and you'd be fine letting
22:51public perception dictate how we live our lives in service of real reform maybe real change requires
23:00sacrifice but I would not do it at the expense of our family I would need to know that you
23:05were on board
23:05100% hello whoa something smells good because I cooked more than cooked candles should I be worried
23:20no not at all I just know you had a really hard day and I wanted to do something nice
23:24for you
23:25oh uh-huh and uh what do you really want in exchange for this totally no strings attached feast
23:35a conversation about DC I didn't know we needed to have one I know and that is my fault but
23:43all day
23:44I have not been able to get this idea out of my head and Russ stopped by on the way
23:49to the airport
23:50and gave me his final appeal and it made me question why I was so quick to shut it down
23:57well and before you tell me no or give me 100 reasons why it won't work all I ask is
24:02that you spend some
24:03time to explore the idea and by that you mean see what transferring to DC police would look like make
24:11some calls ask some questions kick the tires and what if we come to different conclusions we abort the
24:18mission either we're both in or both out we need both keys to launch the torpedoes yes what do you
24:26think I think I want you to be happy and if this is something you want then I will do
24:35everything I can
24:36from my end to see if it's feasible we're in this together is it just me or these numbers starting
24:50to blend
24:51together it is not just you everything okay with the press writer's death was ruled in accidents but
24:58there's always a chance they could reopen the case or blame me for this whole evidence logging
25:03mess hey just take the win you're right look I swear if I lose watch commander because of Smitty that's
25:10not gonna happen I have been manifesting that we will find this machete all day manifesting
25:17god I got you away from waters just in times you gotta be kidding me thank god all right let's
25:34go home
25:37wait where are you a yurt in Finland the northern lights have been amazing the last few nights
25:44jealous I know I wish you were here to see them with me me too I miss you hey Selena
25:49I might have
25:50found something so Ryder is that Miles hey Miles hey man how's the great white north he saw the aurora
25:55oh cool who's Ryder a suspect in a murder well that sounds important do you need to go no just
26:01give me
26:01one second what's up okay so I was looking through Ryder's jewelry file between the ages of 9 to 14
26:07he lived in four different foster homes one was located in the 54th Street territory foster parents
26:12were Mabel and Raphael Sinclair and Raphael died a few years ago heart attack but look at what I found
26:18on Mabel uh babe I'm sorry I gotta go no worries uh have fun solving your murder we will
26:32this is Mabel Sinclair most of the kids in the neighborhood just call her mom since they know
26:37whatever they need food a place to stay clean clothes Mabel will hook them up well last week
26:42Mabel was a victim of a hit and run while crossing her street witnesses saw a red sedan speeding away
26:46from the scene but no arrests have been made anyone care to guess what kind of car Fred Wilson drove
26:51all right Camry so you think Fred hit Mabel oh more than that Selena ran his vent and found the
26:57body shop doing the repairs on his car the bumper tested positive for blood francis are running the
27:03sample what's Ryder's connection to this woman oh Mabel was his foster mother
27:10that's the second shooter that is Kingston Holmes 22 proud member of the 5-4 and former foster brother
27:16to Ryder Frost so they murdered Fred Wilson as revenge for killing Mabel well Mabel wasn't dead
27:26all I remember is going out to bring my trash cans in and then waking up here and they told
27:34me it
27:34was a a hit and run unfortunately the man suspected of hitting you with his car was murdered we have
27:40reason to believe your former foster sons Ryder Frost and Kingston Holmes want a revenge for what
27:45happened to you it was painful enough losing Ryder and Kingston to the streets I don't think I can
27:53take knowing that they killed a man because of me we're very sorry but I'm afraid that's not all
28:01Ryder died yesterday trying to jump between rooftops they were just hurt little boys underneath it all you
28:08know when Ryder first came to us he was so shut down he barely said two words to me that
28:19first month
28:20the Kingston he always had this way about him this lightness even after all he'd been through
28:31but then they started to do everything together and bit by bit I got to see Ryder for the sweet
28:45sensitive boy he was what happened Ryder's mom came back into the picture with her skinhead boyfriend
28:54and once he was gone all of Kingston's light went with him he started to act out getting in trouble
29:07and he was finally put away on some trumped up vandalism charge and then he joined the gang in prison
29:20and suddenly the two boys I saw become brothers were turned into mortal enemies by the streets
29:32I'm sorry for how much pain this has caused you but we'd like to bring Kingston in without any more
29:37bloodshed do you have any way of contacting him
29:45what do you want me to say hey the judge signed off on the wiretop we should be good to
29:51go in a few
29:51great uh what you were saying yesterday about DC and needing to unclench it can't be that bad right
30:00all right maybe I've just I've been spoiled by LA I'm sure the city has a lot of great things
30:05about it
30:06but from what I saw being a cop there just means a lot of crowd control around government offices
30:12usually in crappy weather snowstorms in the winter swamp-like humidity in the summer
30:18you get two weeks of cherry blossoms a year and that's about it
30:23also speaking as someone who thought transferring to another department would be easy

37:39um
37:39look i realize this was a bit of a tough one
37:42are you all right
37:43i'll be all right
37:45i know i shouldn't feel sympathy but
37:48he's
37:49just a boy
37:50look
37:50no one is saying you can't feel sympathy
37:52but at the end of the day he did make the choice to pull that trigger
37:58why don't you go home i'll take care of the paperwork yes sir thank you you bet
38:08it amazes me how one man can wreak such havoc on the entire lapd smitty is a force of nature
38:16i got a minute yeah sure what's up well bailey has been offered a pretty impressive job in dc
38:23pentagon think tank and i was just wondering what a transfer to the dcpd would be like yeah i can
38:31get you in touch with a few people but you do know you would have to start at the very
38:35bottom again
38:36including redoing the academy i've done it before you were also five years younger yes you would get
38:44a pretty hefty signing bonus that's a perk but your annual salary would be much less than you make in
38:50la plus the cost of living in dc is just as expensive so in the long run your bonus really
38:56won't make a difference especially if bailey's only making the government salary right i'm sorry if
39:02this is not the answer you were looking for no no that's um i was just looking for the truth
39:08yeah well good luck thank you
39:15hey
39:18the la pd would be sad to see you go thank you sir
39:29guess what what we won that's great judge give you any grief about the evidence i think he was too
39:37confused by the explanation to challenge it take the win i prepared a ten minute lecture for
39:43tomorrow's roll call to make sure no one can ever again use ignorance as an excuse when mislabeling
39:48case numbers you know you're really good watch commander i'm figuring it out no listen no matter
39:54what kind of craziness is going on at the station you're always the center of calm and the rest of
39:59us need that i need that thank you tell you what list of things we can't trust smitty with is
40:06getting longer do you think he's doing it on purpose weaponizing competence yeah i don't think he's that
40:17strategic
40:20hey sorry i missed dinner
40:24and bedtime
40:27you should run for da
40:30are you sure because if you're not in 100%
40:34i'm in the more i thought about it the more i realized this was exactly why you joined the da's
40:40office in the first place and i'm proud you want to set that example for our children especially
40:45because every day i see firsthand the people our system has failed and inevitably the ones who suffer
40:53the most are other kids you sure you're okay waiting on a new house no but like you said
41:01real change requires sacrifice and i love this house we brought home two babies here
41:13we also made two babies here so we did
41:22no food to entice me with i see no but i have wine
41:30no listen i don't want to beat around the bush i did my due diligence and i am sorry honey
41:36i don't
41:36think i can do dc it would mean starting all over again as a rookie only this time instead of
41:44being 45
41:45i'd be 50. oh
41:50what if
41:54i'm not ready to say no
41:56well you did say we both had to be in or you would walk away
42:01i know and i meant it when i said it
42:06but now
42:08you still want it
42:13so where does that leave us
42:54damn it
42:54damn it
