00:00You ever have roommates?
00:02Sure. I mean, it's been a few decades.
00:05What was the proper etiquette when they would, like, would have sleepovers?
00:10You mean when they're hooking up?
00:11Yeah.
00:12Oh, yeah. No nudity in shared spaces.
00:15You seeing a little more of the boyfriend than you care to?
00:16So much more.
00:18You just set some boundaries.
00:19I have. Regularly, and yet I still got an eyeful of Willy Wonka this morning.
00:26Where the hell are they going?
00:28Control 7 out of 15. Advise status on any code 3 events near our location.
00:33Negative 7 out of 15.
00:35What was there, Harry?
00:36Let's find out.
00:46Smitty, go to channel 9.
00:48Go for Smitty.
00:50Where is your shop?
00:51Where's my shop?
00:52It's parked right out here.
00:56Wait a minute.
01:15What's happening?
01:16I've been waiting for you to wake up.
01:19I think we should have a baby.
01:22Oh.
01:23Is that something you're open to?
01:25I'm, I, I, I don't know.
01:28I, I love being a dad.
01:29But I think I thought maybe my days of dirty diapers and sleepless nights were over.
01:36But you were about to foster Anna.
01:37No, yes, that's true.
01:39I was.
01:40But she had no one.
01:42I think it kind of, it felt like fate.
01:45Hmm.
01:46So is that a no?
01:47No.
01:48It's, it's a, I haven't even had a cup of coffee yet.
01:51Maybe we table this till later.
01:55Absolutely.
01:56This is a really big conversation.
01:57So let's just think about it and we can talk again after work.
02:01Right.
02:01Okay.
02:08Yeah.
02:10On a scale of one to ten, how stressed are you?
02:13Nineteen.
02:13Thanks.
02:14Tim's still ghosting you?
02:15He's not ghosting me.
02:16We just haven't talked in a couple of days.
02:18Not speaking to the person you're dating is...
02:20Is the definition of ghosting.
02:22I realize that.
02:25So this probably isn't a good time to add more stress to your plate.
02:30What's wrong?
02:31Nothing.
02:32Nothing.
02:33It's just, I have a group of friends at school and they're getting a place together and I
02:38was thinking of joining them.
02:40You're moving.
02:41Kinda.
02:44That's great.
02:45Really?
02:46Yeah.
02:46I mean, you should live with people your own age.
02:49I mean, I'm, I'm just seeing you every day, but if it makes you happy, then that's great.
02:55Good.
02:55I was worried you'd be upset.
02:57The house they picked is really cool.
02:59I'll show you pictures after school.
03:00And I can't wait.
03:11Hey, have you talked to Tim recently?
03:13No.
03:14I heard he was taking vacation days.
03:15You think he's in trouble?
03:16Yes.
03:17I...
03:19He said that if he tells me what he's doing, I could put my career in jeopardy.
03:24That's alarming.
03:25I know.
03:26Should I, should I tell Gray?
03:29No.
03:29Hard as it is, you need to trust him.
03:31Whatever he's doing, I'm sure Tim's got it handled.
03:34Okay.
03:34So I'm just supposed to do nothing?
03:36Patrol like normal?
03:37Pretend like I'm not worried out of my mind?
03:39For now, yes.
03:43Thanks.
03:46And if you're just joining us, it's been a pitcher's clinic here.
03:50Tied ball game in the bottom of the seventh floor.
03:54Hi.
03:55Oh my God.
03:57What are you doing?
03:59Being a friend?
04:00What are you doing?
04:02Talk.
04:03I can't.
04:04For your own good.
04:05Are you engaged in a criminal act?
04:07Not at the moment.
04:09Then tell me.
04:10Angela, if this goes sideways and you're anywhere near it, you could be fired.
04:15If Lucy gets fired, it's a problem.
04:17If I get fired, I start living off my husband's trust fund and call it wine o'clock.
04:22It's a spill.
04:24I'm tailing this guy from my old unit, Ray Watkins.
04:28Spent his deployment ripping off Iraqi locals.
04:31Got a couple of my men killed.
04:34Till a few days ago, I thought he was KIA.
04:37Somehow he survived and now he's living under a different name as a hired gun.
04:40So why tail him?
04:41At a minimum, he's AWOL.
04:43Why not just detain him and turn him over to the military police?
04:46Because he's got something on me.
04:48He knows I lied on the report about his death.
04:52So you're trying to catch him in a fresh crime, arrest him for what he's doing now?
04:56Exactly.
04:57Cool.
04:59I'm in.
05:00You sure?
05:03Yeah.
05:04I got your back, boo.
05:07You're having a baby?
05:09That's so great.
05:10That's not what I said.
05:11I said Bailey wants to have a baby.
05:14And you don't?
05:15Because you're older and feel like your child raising years are behind you?
05:21Look, I loved raising Henry.
05:24It was incredible.
05:25But there is a lot I want to accomplish on the job.
05:28And I don't have a lot of time left.
05:30Because I am older.
05:31Okay, I get that.
05:33But have you seen babies?
05:36They're so cute.
05:37And I feel like you should have, like, three.
05:39Okay.
05:40I am deleting Bailey's number from your phone.
05:42Oh, we're being assigned to assist City Safe L.A. in cleaning up an encampment of unhoused residents.
05:49L.A. County Sheriff is bringing a group of inmates to assist.
05:54Ma'am, ma'am, excuse me, ma'am.
05:57I cannot let you get...
05:58Everything okay?
05:58Yeah.
05:59No.
05:59He won't let me bring drinks to my daughter and her friends.
06:02Come on.
06:02They're dying in this heat.
06:04Ma'am, it is 70 degrees.
06:05Is your daughter homeless?
06:06No, she's one of the inmates.
06:08Mom!
06:09Honey.
06:10Hey!
06:12Trustee, get back here.
06:14Hello.
06:15I miss you.
06:16Me too.
06:17You smell good.
06:18Oh, you don't.
06:18But I still love you.
06:20No contact.
06:20Okay, hey, hey.
06:21What's the harm?
06:22We're literally surrounded by police.
06:24You're not the one who has to search up a contraband after this.
06:26You, leave.
06:28You, back to work.
06:30See you in two weeks.
06:31Yeah.
06:34I hope you have a horrible day.
06:37Give me the bag!
06:39Let it go!
06:39Let it go!
06:40Let it go!
06:41Hey!
06:41Give me...
06:42Hey!
06:43Let it go!
06:43Hey, what's going on?
06:44She's trying to steal my bag.
06:46Sir, no she's not, okay?
06:47We're gonna pack up your belongings and send them to the shelter.
06:49Yeah, yeah, that's the same thing you said last time.
06:51When I got my tip back, it was ripped in three places.
06:54Okay, how about we let him hold on to the bag for a little bit?
06:57Well, hang on, hang on.
07:01I'll give it to you.
07:01Sir, back up.
07:03Hey, Officer Nolan.
07:09You remember the Karina Lewis case?
07:11Yeah, college gymnast.
07:13Uh, boyfriend murdered her a few years back, but the body was never found.
07:16Yeah.
07:17This is her bag.
07:18We were missing along with her.
07:21Sir, where did you get this bag?
07:22Hey, I found that.
07:24I swear.
07:25I would...
07:26This place just became a crime scene.
07:28Lock it down.
07:28Yes, sir.
07:29Officer Nolan!
07:30Oh, what now?
07:32I just found these in the garbage can.
07:34One of the prisoners just escaped.
07:43So, where'd you get this?
07:44Well, I didn't steal it.
07:45Y'all assume just because we homeless is much.
07:47I don't assume anything, but stealing it is better than taking it off a murder victim,
07:51making yourself a suspect.
07:53Yeah, well, it was neither of those things, all right?
07:54I found the bag in Griffith Park last week.
07:58I can show you where.
07:59Okay, good.
08:00Let's go.
08:01You're riding with me.
08:02Yes, ma'am.
08:06Pay off.
08:07Maybe smuggling something into the country.
08:09Or out.
08:10Or maybe Ray lost a bet and is innocent.
08:12I mean, you've been following this guy for two days and haven't seen anything remotely criminal.
08:15How long are you going to keep this up?
08:17Long as it takes.
08:18Really?
08:19You just walk away from your job, your relationship with Lucy,
08:21to arrest a guy you haven't thought about in a decade?
08:24Yeah.
08:27What?
08:28If you lied in a report, you must have had a good reason.
08:32I was trying to protect Ray's family so they'd get his death benefits.
08:35Noble.
08:36Lucy would understand that.
08:37Yeah, but she'd still get in trouble if she didn't notify IA about my transgression.
08:41True.
08:44This is very irritating.
08:45I don't think you're just protecting her.
08:48I think you're protecting yourself.
08:49There's something else you did that you don't want to admit.
08:52And you're basing this on?
08:53I'm your BFF.
08:54I know you.
08:56I'm a grown man.
08:57I don't have BFFs.
08:58Technically, you can only have one BFF.
09:05I'm going to take a closer look.
09:07Wait.
09:08Come on.
09:10Come on.
09:38Mr. Inman had diplomatic plates.
09:40We follow him or stay with Ray.
09:41Ray, I can ask my friend at state for help IDing the new player.
09:45Missing inmate is Teresa Vaughn.
09:46Girl, you allowed to make contact with a potential accomplice.
09:49Okay, you're blaming me because you failed to do your job?
09:51The hell did you say?
09:52Okay, we can play the blame game later.
09:54Right now, we have a fugitive to find.
09:56I agree.
09:56It's most likely Mother that helped her escape.
09:58That's our first lead.
09:59We can put a bolo out for Teresa.
10:01Why was Teresa incarcerated?
10:03Assault, but she only had 10 days left on a sentence.
10:07That doesn't make any sense.
10:08Trying to escape would add at least a year.
10:11Why risk it?
10:14I'll just review the details in Karina's case.
10:16She disappeared 19 months ago.
10:19Boyfriend was the immediate suspect.
10:20He ultimately confessed to strangling her in his apartment down in Culver City.
10:24Then he claims he blacked out afterwards and forgot where he left the body.
10:28Any of this looking familiar to you?
10:31Yeah, a little.
10:32I was trying to find a place to sleep.
10:35Everything was so wet because of the storm.
10:37It was around here, though.
10:38Big, flat rock.
10:40There.
10:41There it is, right there.
10:42Behind there.
10:43When I was all muddy, when I went through it,
10:45I was hoping to find some cash or some food on the inside,
10:48but it was only a couple school books.
10:50Yeah, the rain could have dislodged the bag, causing it to go downhill.
11:10Karina Lewis.
11:13At least now her family can give her a proper burial.
11:21You said the boyfriend confessed to strangling her?
11:24Yeah.
11:25Then why is there a bullet wound in her head?
11:27That's a small caliber, .22, maybe .38.
11:31Why confess to the murder but lie about the method?
11:33It makes no sense.
11:34Teresa Vaughn was serving six months for assault on a woman she claimed was hooking up with her boyfriend.
11:40I'm not sure that's the person I'd be assaulting.
11:42Not that violence is ever the answer.
11:437-M-15, 7-M-6 pulled over your bolo alert.
11:47Brenda Vaughn, fugitive's mother, 3rd and Oak.
11:49Copy that.
11:50Show us responding.
12:00No sign of the fugitive.
12:01I told you.
12:03Would you mind going to her house in case her daughter decides to show up there?
12:06You got it.
12:08I get how this looks, but I had nothing to do with my daughter's escape.
12:12Any idea where your daughter might have gone?
12:14No.
12:15But any place is better than jail, right?
12:17Not when you have two weeks left on your sentence.
12:19Why would she throw that away now?
12:21Did you say something to her?
12:23Tell her a secret when you were giving her a hug?
12:25No.
12:25Okay, so then you just expect me to believe it's a coincidence.
12:28She escaped right after you showed up.
12:30I can't control what you believe, but it's the truth.
12:33Do you have kids?
12:34Yeah, I have one.
12:35Then you understand that I would do anything to help my daughter, including practicing tough love.
12:41Okay, if Teresa asked me to help her escape, I would have told her it was the dumbest idea I'd
12:46ever heard, and to suck it up and finish her time.
12:48Any idea who might help your daughter despite the consequences?
12:52She has a lot of friends, but I doubt any of them would stick their necks out for her.
12:56What about the boyfriend?
12:58Mike?
12:58No.
12:59He broke up with her right after she attacked Doreen.
13:03That's where...
13:04That's where what?
13:05Teresa's still pissed about the affair.
13:08She told me she was planning on doing some permanent damage to Doreen when she got out.
13:15Control, I'm going to need an address on a Doreen...
13:17Davis.
13:18Davis.
13:19Home and work.
13:26Doreen?
13:27Yeah?
13:28What's going on?
13:30Teresa Vaughn escaped from custody this morning.
13:33Escaped?
13:33Yeah, but we're going to make sure you're safe.
13:36Yeah, you don't need to.
13:38Teresa came by like half an hour ago, said that she, uh, got released early.
13:43Apologized for everything, said that, uh, she should have listened to me when I said I didn't hook up with
13:47Mike.
13:48Wait, so there was no affair?
13:49No.
13:50Mike and I were friends, that's it.
13:52But he was definitely cheating on her with someone.
13:55Well, did she say where she was going next?
13:57No, just, she finally knew who to blame.
14:04You're too close.
14:05I can't tell in my nose with only one vehicle.
14:07I need to keep him in sight.
14:08We're going to get made.
14:08You should let me drive.
14:09I got it.
14:25I come in peace.
14:29Where's your friend?
14:30Ooh.
14:31Hey, Mama.
14:32I thought you said this guy was smart because all I see is slick.
14:35What's the plan here, Sarge?
14:37You're just going to follow me around all week while I wait for my mom to kick it?
14:40And we both know you're not here for your mom.
14:44Mark bailed on you, huh?
14:45Did he lose his nerve?
14:47Maybe you did.
14:48Was there a falling out over what to do with me?
14:52Let me guess.
14:53He was Team Extermination.
14:55And you were Team Justice.
14:59You know, this guy's nickname in the service was the Reaper.
15:04Sad when one of your heroes grows a conscience.
15:09I'm going to go now.
15:11I'm open to some company if you want to live.
15:14I'll pass.
15:15But we'll be seeing you again real soon.
15:18Can't wait.
15:27Thank you for meeting with us.
15:29Yeah, no problem.
15:30Actually, you could help me out with something.
15:32I have to approve a headshot for my campaign website.
15:35Which one of these looks more district attorney-ish?
15:39The one on the right.
15:41I agree.
15:44We need to talk about a case that you prosecuted last year.
15:48Karina Lewis.
15:49Karina Lewis.
15:51Oh, yeah, the boyfriend strangled her.
15:53Full confession, he pled out doing 20 at Soledad.
15:56Right.
15:56Well, we found her remains today.
15:59Well, hey, that's great news.
16:01The family can finally put her to rest.
16:02Yes, but the only problem is she was not strangled.
16:06She was shot in the head with a .22.
16:10Boyfriend lied in this statement.
16:11Right, which clearly was coerced.
16:13Uh, Officer Thorson is getting ahead of himself.
16:16But it is a significant inconsistency.
16:20Is there any chance it was a false confession?
16:23No.
16:24Are you serious?
16:25That fast?
16:25Just no?
16:26Officer Thorson, wait for me outside, please.
16:30Ma'am.
16:30Go.
16:31Now.
16:38I apologize.
16:40He clearly has brought some of his own history into this.
16:42Mm-hmm.
16:44Look, you weren't there, Detective, and neither was he.
16:47The investigation was solid.
16:50The boyfriend had a history of violence.
16:52Hair matching the victim was found in the trunk of his car.
16:54Witnesses heard them arguing.
16:56I could have gotten a conviction even without his confession.
16:59So kindly invite Officer Thorson to take his self-righteousness and stick it where the sun don't shine.
17:05Are we done here?
17:06Yes, sir.
17:12Is he really not going to do anything about it?
17:14You cannot talk to a prosecutor like that.
17:16Detective.
17:17Ever.
17:17Do you understand?
17:19Yes.
17:22Does this mean we're abandoning the investigation?
17:24There is no we in this, Officer Thorson.
17:26This is not our investigation.
17:28It is mine.
17:29Which means that the risk of pissing off someone who will likely be the next district attorney falls on me.
17:36Okay.
17:37Does this mean you're abandoning the investigation?
17:39No, it means that we need to find undeniable evidence that Karina Lewis was killed by someone other than the
17:45guy who was currently sitting in prison before we can even think about coming back here.
17:51Why are you smiling?
17:54Because you said we.
18:03Were there any other suspects, aside from the boyfriend?
18:06Yeah, a guy who used to work with Karina and her off-campus job, Ryan Jones.
18:11And, fun fact, the detective that interviewed him said Ryan was quite the gun collector.
18:15So it is likely he would own a .22.
18:17Exactly.
18:18In my professional opinion, his alibi was super shaky.
18:21Need I remind you, five minutes, that your professional opinion is still a work in progress?
18:28Noted.
18:29But Ryan claimed he was hanging out at his girlfriend's apartment.
18:33That is a little shaky.
18:35But it is nowhere near enough to move the needle.
18:41Kids here?
18:42They're at my mom's.
18:43Wesley's going to pick him up on his way home.
18:45Which makes this the perfect time for you to tell me why you think this is all your fault.
18:49I don't.
18:50Come on.
18:51Sit.
18:58There's no way you let a loser like Ray live under your skin, if you didn't blame yourself for more
19:02than just lying on a report.
19:04Look.
19:07I had been squad leader, most of my second tour.
19:11I had top performance ratings, fast track to promotion.
19:14Unless my battalion commander found out that a soldier in my unit was engaged in rampant criminality.
19:21I thought if I brought Ray in myself, I could keep it within the squad.
19:26No harm, no foul, and I would be sergeant first class in no time.
19:31So we went after him.
19:34Unsanctioned.
19:36Under the radar.
19:39We located him in a village just outside of Mosul.
19:44As soon as he found out he was trapped, he called in an airstrike right on top of us.
19:51It was like the world exploded.
19:55I thought I was going to die, Angela.
19:59But I got lucky.
20:00The Humvee that Mark and I were behind, it saved us.
20:08But, but Henderson and Coyle, they were blown apart.
20:16I still don't know how Ray survived.
20:19I mean, the building he was in was almost completely destroyed.
20:22There, we found his mangled dog tags in the wreckage.
20:26I mean, there was, there was so much blood.
20:31We had, without question, we thought he was KIA.
20:35I mean, it was, it was a spectacular failure of leadership.
20:45I put my career above my oath.
20:49And two soldiers, two decent men, didn't come home that night.
20:57And I'm going to have to live with that for the rest of my life.
21:25What are you still doing here?
21:27I'm just going over the Carina Lewis case.
21:29Right, I heard they found her body.
21:34Detectives questioned this guy for over ten hours without his lawyer, right?
21:38He's young, he's scared.
21:41In retrospect, it's possible he could have been coerced.
21:44Okay, so take another look.
21:45If he was, get the conviction overturned.
21:48Yeah, it's not that simple.
21:50Because you're running for DA.
21:51Yeah.
21:52How's it going to look when it comes out that you railroaded an innocent man?
21:54Hey, I didn't railroad anybody.
21:55This was a very solid case.
21:57Based on a possibly questionable confession.
22:00Yeah.
22:10You really dove in?
22:12Yeah, I wanted to make an informed decision.
22:14And?
22:15And I'm more sure than ever.
22:18I want to have a baby.
22:23And you don't.
22:24And I don't know.
22:27Some days this job is all I can handle.
22:30When I had Henry, I was the boss.
22:33I never had to miss a school play or a parent-teacher conference.
22:37I don't have that now.
22:39Which means I can't be the kind of dad I want to be.
22:43Or the cop I want to be.
22:45So that's a no.
22:46It's a big decision.
22:48I just, I need more than a day to think about it.
22:51Well, if you were trying to figure out a way to let me down easy, don't.
22:55The longer you let me have hope, the more painful it'll be.
23:09Just in time.
23:11Ordered pizza.
23:13Oh, thank you.
23:14I have been dreading having to cook.
23:18Honey news on the tin front?
23:19Not yet.
23:20So I'm just practicing trust and patience.
23:24And I hate it.
23:28That was quick.
23:29I'm going to get changed.
23:34Hey there.
23:34I'm Ray.
23:36Tim's friend.
23:38But he's not here.
23:39Oh, that's cool.
23:42Lucy?
23:45Yeah?
23:49Can I help you?
23:50I hope so.
23:52You Tim's girlfriend?
23:55Oh, you don't need that.
23:57I'm here to help you, not hurt you.
23:59Yeah, I think I'm going to pass.
24:01Um, you need to leave.
24:03Tim never mentioned me?
24:04I have no idea who you are.
24:05So how would I know if he has mentioned you or not?
24:08Why don't you call Tim?
24:09Ask him about Mosul.
24:12The only phone call I'm going to make is for an ambulance to wheel you out of here unless you
24:16get out.
24:17Right now.
24:20No problem.
24:21You tell Tim to take a knee.
24:23I'm going to be gone in a few days unless he gives me a reason to stick around.
24:35Who the hell is that guy?
24:41Uh-oh.
24:42What?
24:45Hey, what's wrong?
24:46Where are you?
24:48Lucy.
24:48Where the hell are you?
24:51What happened?
24:52Your buddy Ray stopped by.
24:54Are you okay?
24:54Do I look okay?
24:56Let's give him a minute.
24:58What if Tamara had been there by herself when that creep showed up?
25:01I'm sorry.
25:02I had no idea.
25:02No, no more excuses, Tim.
25:04You have to tell me what's going on with you.
25:06Right now.
25:07Now.
25:12His name is Ray Watkins.
25:13He was under my command in Iraq.
25:14I thought he was killed in action, but he's back and he's going to hurt someone if I don't do
25:17something about it.
25:20None of that.
25:21None of it explains why you cut me out.
25:23No, it doesn't.
25:24Stop trying to protect me, Tim.
25:26I'm sorry.
25:27I can't.
25:27Okay?
25:28I won't.
25:28You read Lopez in.
25:30It's different.
25:31She has less to lose than you.
25:33Please.
25:34Just steer clear of this for me.
25:36Okay?
25:36I can't.
25:37I won't.
25:38You clearly need help, and I am done being the good girlfriend.
25:42Okay?
25:42You don't have to tell me everything, but you are going to let me in.
25:49He is about a year old now, right?
25:51Yeah, that's right.
25:52So she's sleeping pretty good.
25:54You really do not remember what it is like to have young kids, do you?
25:57No, I guess I don't.
25:58I'm running on a cold brew and adrenaline, but, you know, it's worth it.
26:02Right.
26:02Are you and Bailey thinking about having a kid?
26:05She is.
26:06Ah.
26:07I just don't know that I can struggle a kid and the job.
26:10Well, I manage.
26:10So does Lopez.
26:11So did Gray.
26:12Right, but you're younger.
26:13So is he.
26:14Just starting out in your careers.
26:16I am a little late to the party.
26:18I've got maybe ten years to maximize my career before it's all but over.
26:22Look, it's a cliche because it is true.
26:25There's really never a good time to have a kid.
26:27But, you know, you make it work.
26:30Mm-hmm.
26:31I know who was sleeping with Teresa's boyfriend.
26:33So this is her and Mike last year before she was arrested.
26:35Anything look familiar?
26:38Teresa's mom was wearing that shirt yesterday.
26:40And Teresa said she smelled great.
26:41Yeah, because she smelled like her boyfriend and she didn't realize it until after.
26:44And when she figured it out, she lost her mind and took off.
26:48Why go apologize to Doreen and not go straight to her mom's place?
26:51Well, we've had a shop parked outside her mom's place since she escaped.
26:56But not my place.
26:58Miss Marcos, thanks for coming in on short notice.
27:01Of course.
27:02Um, you mentioned this had something to do with that horrible Karina Lewis murder?
27:09Yes.
27:10Your boyfriend at the time, Ryan Jones, used to work with Karina.
27:13Is that right?
27:14Uh, yes.
27:14And according to your statement, the night of the murder, he was with you having dinner.
27:21Do you recall what time he arrived?
27:24I don't know.
27:26Um, whatever I said back then must be right.
27:28Well, you said 6 p.m.
27:30Okay, then it was 6.
27:33Why am I here?
27:34They caught the guy.
27:36We actually have new evidence indicating that he might be innocent.
27:40New evidence that implicates Ryan.
27:46He said it-it wasn't a big deal.
27:49He said that it would make things easier if I just said he was there at 6.
27:55What time did you actually see Ryan that night?
27:59Not until 9.
28:01Officer Thorson, a word?
28:03Yes, ma'am.
28:04Excuse me.
28:10She just blew up Ryan's alibi.
28:12He's our guy.
28:12What are you doing interviewing a witness without me?
28:17I'm sorry.
28:18I should have notified you.
28:19Are you really this dense?
28:20Are you just actively trying to jam me up?
28:22No, it's not about you.
28:23This is about an innocent man sitting in prison.
28:26Okay, listen.
28:26I know that this case is personal for you.
28:29But if you keep going rogue, you are going to ruin this man's chances of ever being released.
28:35Okay, the paths to a new trial are incredibly narrow and almost all procedural.
28:41New evidence, even overwhelming evidence, does not guarantee his release.
28:46Okay, well, that's not right.
28:47No, it is not.
28:48But it is the system that we are working in, which means that every step needs to be carefully considered.
28:56Okay, well, Ryan's girlfriend just admitted to lying for him.
29:01She didn't see him until 9 that night.
29:04So what's our next step?
29:09Okay, we need a murder weapon.
29:12If we can match the ballistics from a .22 in Ryan's possession with the bullet that the Emmy found in
29:17Karina, then we have a case.
29:19But to get the gun, we need probable cause to get a warrant.
29:23And right now, we do not have that.
29:28Brenda's here.
29:31Sounds like Teresa's here, too.
29:33My mom!
29:35My freaking mom!
29:39Control, 715.
29:40We have an on-view 415 family at 1331 Arlington.
29:44You got it, pregnant!
29:45I thought you didn't even want kids!
29:47Oh, honestly, I'm with Teresa at this point.
29:49All right.
29:50It's just a bat.
29:51Let's split up.
29:51I'm gonna go around back.
29:53Oh, wait, look at her waistband.
29:54Hey, come on, see?
29:55That's enough!
29:56All right, that changes things.
29:57She's enraged.
29:58It's gonna be hard to get her to calm down.
30:00Get back to the cruiser.
30:01I want you to come racing in hot after 30 seconds, lights and sirens.
30:04Copy that.
30:13Okay.
30:28Elise, you're under arrest.
30:31And for the record, you are a terrible mother.
30:35Hey, my guy at stake came through.
30:38Dipped him out of plates, we sent him blown to the Turkish embassy.
30:40But the guy in the car wasn't Turkish, he was Venezuelan.
30:43Gustav Martinez, military counterintelligence specialty is cracking down on anyone considered
30:48an enemy of the state.
30:49Dissidents.
30:50If Ray met with Gustav, it had to be for a job.
30:53Makes sense.
30:53Gustav can't operate domestically, so he hires Ray to kidnap or kill anyone on the outside
30:57home.
30:58According to my guy, the most likely candidate is Elena Acosta, a political activist.
31:06Hello?
31:07This is Sergeant Tim Bradford with the LAPD.
31:09We just received a credible threat on your life.
31:12They're here!
31:13Yell the name Ray Watkins right now.
31:15Do it.
31:16Ray Watkins!
31:17Ray Watkins!
31:18Me Watkins!
31:19Me Watkins!
31:20No!
31:22Ray Watkins!
31:25Hey, Tim.
31:26We know about the Venezuelans, Ray, so let Elena go right now, and I'll push the DA's office
31:30to go easy on you.
31:31Sorry, buddy.
31:31I got a job to do, and a reputation to uphold.
31:34We're gonna have to let this one play out.
31:36Catch me if you can.
31:44All right.
31:45Put her inside.
31:45I'll let Neil know the container's ready to load.
31:52That was great.
31:59Get on the car.
32:00Whoa, whoa, whoa.
32:02It's over, Ray!
32:04Stop!
32:04Show me your hands right now.
32:06You got your entire crew in custody.
32:07You should have changed it up after you caught me following you.
32:09Yeah, I get a little cocky sometimes.
32:12I didn't even know you'd be on me this early.
32:15You know killing me is your only play here.
32:19I'm not gonna kill you, Ray.
32:21There's no airstrike you can call in this time.
32:27Kidding?
32:28I am the airstrike.
32:30I'm about to blow up your whole life.
32:34Sergeant Bradford, this is a D.I.I., or department-initiated investigation, which could result in discipline.
32:42Your continued employment with the LAPD is contingent on your full and truthful answers to my questions.
32:49I understand.
32:50I want to be clear.
32:52Other people will deal with your crimes.
32:53I'm not questioning you as a suspect.
32:56My job is to investigate your accusations against Sergeant Bradford.
33:00On that point, I am crystal clear.
33:03When did you become aware that Ray Watkins was alive?
33:07Last week.
33:08I saw him entering a 7-Eleven.
33:10Bradford and Mark Greer tracked me down, threatened me in my mother's home.
33:16Was your mother there to witness that?
33:18Yeah, but she's in the hospital.
33:20Doctors say it'll be a miracle if she wakes up.
33:23I'm sorry.
33:24Don't be.
33:26But Mark, he was there.
33:27I haven't seen Mark Greer in a decade.
33:31I still get the occasional Christmas card.
33:33According to the FAA, there's no record of Mark Greer flying into Los Angeles.
33:38No local credit card charges.
33:40His phone never left Arlington.
33:42And the Army shows him as on base for the entire two weeks.
33:46Clever man.
33:47He was planning to kill me, so he covered his tracks.
33:50Did I conspire to commit murder with a guy I haven't seen in 10 years?
33:54No.
33:55So Ray Watkins is lying.
33:57Little tip when dealing with Ray.
33:58If his lips are moving, he's lying.
34:00Tim lied on the after-action report.
34:02He said I was killed in action.
34:06I look dead to you.
34:07Why would I lie?
34:08My whole squad had been hit with friendly fire.
34:10I had lost three of my men.
34:11Technically two.
34:12Right, but I didn't know that until a few days ago.
34:15And it shook me.
34:17Ray Watkins was AWOL.
34:19Why not contact military police when you learned he was alive?
34:22I wanted to be sure before I sounded the alarm.
34:24Here's the truth.
34:25Bradford wanted to protect his career.
34:27So he lied about what actually happened.
34:29And he participated in a cover-up.
34:32And he knowingly falsified official reports.
34:36These are serious accusations.
34:38Is any part of what Ray said true?
34:42No.
34:43None of it.
35:05I'm so sorry to interrupt, but what are you using?
35:1144 million.
35:12Is it heavy?
35:15You tell me.
35:18Oh, wow.
35:19You must be really strong to hold that.
35:22I can't.
35:23I lift.
35:24Oh, okay.
35:24So I am trying to decide on what to buy.
35:27And I want something that's light, but still, like, accurate.
35:3238 is a good option.
35:34Okay, I've heard of that.
35:36A friend of mine, she has a .22 Ruger, and she loves it.
35:41She says it's light enough to hold in her purse.
35:44A Ruger.
35:46A Ruger.
35:48A Ruger.
35:49Right.
35:5022 is a good choice for a delicate woman like you.
35:54No recoil.
35:55Oh, okay.
35:58Do you have one I can try?
36:03Please.
36:04Yeah, sure, I have a few with me.
36:06Okay.
36:37So, I had a chance to look over the ballistics report.
36:40The bullets that you collected are a match for the bullet that killed Karina Lewis.
36:45An arrest warrant has been approved, and I will be signing a motion to vacate the conviction.
36:50Really?
36:50I wouldn't have prosecuted if we'd had this evidence at the time.
36:53That's awesome.
36:54No.
36:55I probably shouldn't hug you, right?
36:57Right.
36:58Let us know if you need anything.
37:00Will do.
37:01And thank you.
37:03Well, thank you for sticking with it.
37:06Good job.
37:09And your campaign.
37:11Well, doing the right thing, no matter how difficult, should be seen as a character strength, not a flaw.
37:17Nice.
37:19You float that one by the advisors yet?
37:20Damn right I did.
37:21They loved it.
37:21I bet they did.
37:22Big plans this weekend?
37:24Uh, hide in my room, wear blinders to the kitchen.
37:28Yeah, I need a move, huh?
37:30Definitely.
37:31What about you?
37:32What's going on with the whole, uh, baby situation?
37:34Mostly I've just been avoiding thinking about it all day.
37:38And now?
37:44Having a kid has been the greatest joy of my life.
37:56So why would I want to deny her that?
38:01In light of Ray's numerous crimes, his statements against you appear retaliatory in nature.
38:07Because your after-action reports have been accepted as factual by your military superiors,
38:13which there's no evidence to suggest otherwise, this D.I.I. is closed with a finding of not sustained.
38:22Thank you, sir.
38:24Always a pleasure.
38:25Yeah.
38:27We should get the wives together soon.
38:28Have some dinner.
38:29I would love that.
38:34You know this is a NOVA.
38:36I know.
38:37You violated procedure in pursuit of a suspect and roped in two other officers?
38:42What if Miss Acosta had been killed because you didn't utilize proper channels and resources?
38:48It was wrong.
38:49I know.
38:50I'm required to notify your Metro Commander.
38:54What she does with it is up to her.
38:55Sir, I...
38:55You're dismissed.
39:10Come here.
39:17How'd it go with A.A.?
39:22I lied about everything, but I mean, I saved my job, right?
39:32Protected you and Lopez?
39:33It was an impossible situation.
39:36I would have done the same thing if I was in your place.
39:40You wouldn't have been in my place.
39:43You never would have put self-interest over your team.
39:45Look, you thought you could handle it.
39:48You were wrong, but you made it right, so it's fine.
39:51Yeah.
39:53Yeah, I wish it was that easy.
39:55Lucy, I just lied to two men I deeply respect, okay?
39:59I just betrayed everything I thought was right about myself.
40:03Tim.
40:03No, no.
40:04Y'all let me finish, okay?
40:05This is very hard for me to say.
40:06Okay.
40:08Lucy, I've been lying to myself for a long time.
40:13That's clear to me now.
40:14And I can't, I can't just go back to the way things were.
40:19Not right now.
40:22Maybe never.
40:27Wait.
40:30Are you breaking up with me?
40:35I'm sorry.
40:38You don't, you don't get to do that.
40:41You don't, you don't get to lie to me and then use that as an excuse to leave me, okay?
40:48That's not okay.
40:49That's not okay.
40:50What you're doing is not okay.
40:52I know.
40:55You, you are an incredible person.
40:58No.
40:58No, you're incredible, okay?
41:01You deserve so much better.
41:03Oh my God.
41:06That's why I'm walking away.
41:08Don't do this.
41:08Why are you doing this?
41:11Why are you doing this?
41:13I'm sorry.
41:33Are you learning baby sign language?
41:36Maybe.
41:39How about we just forget about the elephant in the room for tonight, make some dinner, and enjoy some time
41:45together?
41:46I think that's a great idea.
41:50Well, you may want to lay off the wine if we're going to get you pregnant later tonight.
41:55Is that what we're doing?
41:57Oh yes.
41:58With much enthusiasm.
42:00Are you sure?
42:04Hydrating.
42:06Do we have to wait till after dinner?
42:10Nope.
42:13Grab my water.
42:18You're in trouble.
42:25We'll be back.
42:26We'll be back.
42:26Bye.
42:39Bye.
42:41Bye.
42:41Bye.
42:55Damn it.
