T.h.e R.o.o.k.i.e 2018 Season 8 Episode 2
Transcript
00:00I feel like every important thing in my adult life happened in here.
00:03But now you're emerging from this chrysalis and becoming a beautiful butterfly and...
00:09Is it too much?
00:11No, it's perfect. You're perfect.
00:19Sorry, am I early?
00:20No, no, we're just getting a slow start.
00:21Sorry, come on in.
00:23Hey, well, you can put some of your stuff in my room for now.
00:25Oh, that's all I have.
00:26What? Are you kidding?
00:27No, car life is all about minimalism.
00:30But if you have anything you want to leave behind, feel free.
00:33You know, I mean, Tim has a bed. Do you really need a bringer's?
00:37What?
00:39Sorry.
00:39Could you actually just, um, put that back?
00:44You are welcome to come visit any time you want.
00:47Yes.
00:48Take care of this place for me.
00:56This is so gross. I don't even want to put this on my chair.
01:00I'm calling it.
01:01There's not enough dry cleaning in the world.
01:03Why did that idiot have to throw his gun in the sewer?
01:05I know, as if murder wasn't bad enough, he had to go and ruin my favorite boots.
01:10What's that smell?
01:12That is the sweet aroma of a closed case.
01:15It smells like industrial waste.
01:17You know, sometimes I wonder what I'm still doing here.
01:19I'm rich, you know, like really rich.
01:22I don't need any of this.
01:24What are you going to do, huh?
01:25Retire, have lunch at the country club every day.
01:29I'd also do Pilates and see books and go shopping and travel.
01:34Being the boss isn't just about getting the work done.
01:37You got to play a smart political game.
01:39I know, I've filled in for you before.
01:42A day here or there is not the same.
01:45Tim, you are the watch commander now.
01:49No acting, no interim.
01:51You're him.
01:55Now, problem solving is never ending.
01:57Memos pile up fast.
01:58If you don't have a system, you'll fall behind.
02:00Understood.
02:01Um, yeah, that's it.
02:02Any questions?
02:03No, I'm good.
02:07It's my desk.
02:08Right.
02:11Sorry, it's going to take some getting used to.
02:13Um, so if you need anything...
02:15I know where the task force office is.
02:17Good luck.
02:21Hey, I don't want to make you late for roll call,
02:23but girlfriend, Lucy,
02:25has a couple of things she'd like to say to you
02:27before you start at your shift.
02:28So, good luck.
02:30You've earned this, and you've got this.
02:34Girlfriend Lucy?
02:35Yes.
02:36Well, technically, I guess it's live-in girlfriend Lucy now, so...
02:39Technically, I think you have to be fully unpacked
02:41before we can call you then.
02:42But that's not the point.
02:44Either way, L-I-G-F Lucy is officially clocking out,
02:48and Sergeant Chen is taking over.
02:50This is weird.
02:51Maybe.
02:51But our jobs are too important
02:53to let our relationship interfere.
02:55We really need to be professional.
02:58Okay.
02:58Well, uh, I appreciate L-I-G-F Lucy's kind words.
03:04I will tell her if I see her.
03:05No, tell her.
03:07Okay.
03:10First day as Robey supervisor.
03:12Nervous?
03:13Oh, no.
03:14Nothing could be more challenging
03:15than working with the dream team, so...
03:16At least on night shift,
03:17you bore everyone in the watch, Commander.
03:19Wow.
03:20I do have a good plan for dealing with that, though.
03:22It's strict compartmentalization.
03:24Sounds unhealthy.
03:25What?
03:26No, I think it's good.
03:27Clear boundaries and no confusion.
03:29See you at roll call.
03:31So, any advice for dealing with your OTO?
03:34Nolan's stringy.
03:35He seems like the nicest person in the world,
03:37but he can lay down the law.
03:39Don't take him for granted.
03:41Understood.
03:43Hey.
03:44Hey.
03:45It is so weird seeing Tim in Gray's office.
03:48It feels like everything's changing all at once.
03:50Tim's the new Gray.
03:51I'm the new Tim.
03:52Miles is the new Selena.
03:53So who am I?
03:55You...
03:55You're just Nolan.
03:59Woo!
04:08Okay, knock it off.
04:10We have a number of changes today.
04:12First, Nolan will take over training Officer Penn.
04:15Finally got him straightened out,
04:16so try not to mess it up.
04:18I'll do my best.
04:19But don't do your best.
04:20Do my best.
04:21Second, Sergeant Chen is taking over
04:23as Roving Supervisor.
04:26And finally, in T-minus 36 hours,
04:29the President of the United States
04:30arrives in Los Angeles.
04:33Sorry, I think I'm coming down with something.
04:36Probably just an allergy.
04:38It is an honor to host the President
04:39in our fair city.
04:40And we will ensure that his visit
04:41is safe and productive.
04:43A Secret Service Advance team lands shortly,
04:44and they'll be operating out of our station
04:45for the next 48 hours.
04:47Let's show them how real law enforcement is done.
04:50Copy?
04:51Copy.
04:51Yes, sir.
04:51Dismissed.
04:52Sergeant Chen, a minute.
04:54Yep.
04:56Okay, this right here.
04:58This is the current Department Bible
04:59on presidential business.
05:00Wow.
05:01So don't lose it?
05:02Don't even joke about losing it.
05:04Okay.
05:06Oh, wow.
05:08That's really intricate.
05:09Yeah.
05:09Apparently this President guy
05:10is pretty important.
05:11Look, I've been coordinated
05:12with the Secret Service
05:12for the last month.
05:13The only thing left to lock down
05:14is the motorcade route.
05:17And since you're a watch commander now,
05:19it falls to me, right?
05:20Okay.
05:21Correct.
05:21This is not as simple
05:22as getting the President
05:22from point A to point B.
05:24The route needs to comply
05:24with all Secret Service protocols.
05:26My recent proposal is in there.
05:28We're just waiting for a sign-off
05:28on a few items.
05:29Am I locked into your plan?
05:31No.
05:31If you think you can do better,
05:32feel free.
05:32But it would be a heavy lift
05:33on your first day.
05:34And the rethink
05:35can't get in the way
05:36of your other duties.
05:36So if you were me,
05:38stick to the current plan.
05:39Got it.
05:40Okay, so if I do lose it...
05:43Oh, I'm joking.
05:45Gray would have thought
05:46that was funny.
05:47Doubt it.
05:48Check.
05:48Um, yes, right?
05:51McCall was okay, right?
05:54Speaking as Sergeant Chen.
05:56Because Lucy has left the building.
05:57Yes, I remember.
05:58You were maybe, like,
05:59a tad too gruff.
06:00They're grown-ups.
06:01I'm not going to coddle them.
06:02No, I totally agree.
06:02It's just, you know,
06:03Gray would always end
06:04on a good note.
06:05Be safe out there.
06:06Okay, well,
06:07that was his thing.
06:08You know, I need to
06:10find my own style.
06:11I know.
06:12And you will.
06:15Every T.O. rookie relationship
06:17is unique.
06:18As long as it's based
06:18in respect,
06:19we shouldn't have
06:19any problems.
06:21So, what is next
06:22in your Rookbook checklist?
06:23Cultivating and informing.
06:24Okay.
06:25But we should not wait
06:26until after the circus
06:27comes to town tomorrow.
06:28Every day's a circus
06:29in Los Angeles.
06:29Part of your training
06:30is going to be multitasking.
06:31I assume you've already
06:32started cultivating
06:33a list of potential CIs?
06:34Oh, yes, sir.
06:35Our top candidate
06:35is a high-end sex worker
06:36helped out a few weeks back.
06:38Good instincts,
06:38but I wouldn't start
06:40with her.
06:41A C.I. cop relationship
06:42is complicated
06:43on a good day
06:44without the emotional
06:45complexities
06:45that her profession
06:46might bring.
06:47All right.
06:47Well, what about
06:48Dave Cosby?
06:49His garage does
06:50a lot of work
06:50on cars
06:51for the southern front.
06:52How long has he been sober?
06:53A couple months.
06:54Not nearly long enough.
06:55All right.
06:57Fast Andy.
06:59Fast Andy.
07:00Now,
07:00he has good connections,
07:03but he's not that bright.
07:05Well, not looking
07:05for a financial advisor.
07:07Most criminals have done.
07:08Right, but
07:09the C.I. needs to be smart enough
07:10to be able to maintain a lie.
07:12Yeah, I know that.
07:12I've recruited informants
07:13before back in Texas.
07:15Okay, it's your call.
07:17I'm only here for guidance.
07:18If you think Fast Andy
07:19is your guy,
07:20let's go recruit him
07:20and see how that goes.
07:21I'm not buying it.
07:22Kids in self-care
07:23all day, every day.
07:26I think you'd get bored.
07:28So I'll start a business.
07:29Hire my BFF
07:30to run it with me.
07:32What kind of business?
07:33Harper.
07:34Lopez.
07:35Bradford.
07:36Good to see you.
07:37All right, Agent Butler.
07:38This is Sergeant Chen.
07:39She's taking over
07:39my old position.
07:40Protectors Harper and Lopez
07:41have volunteered
07:42to help you run down threats.
07:43I don't remember volunteering.
07:45Me neither.
07:46This is my right hand.
07:47Agent Kevin Kelvin.
07:48I'm sorry.
07:49Kevin?
07:50Kevin Kelvin?
07:50My parents are fans
07:51of alliteration.
07:52Who is it?
07:53Here's the watch list.
07:54As you know,
07:55most of them are cranks,
07:56but the port is landing tomorrow.
07:57We need to make sure
07:57that there's no signs
07:58of escalation.
07:59Major life events,
08:00weapon purchases.
08:00I know what escalation looks like.
08:02Of course you do.
08:03Yeah.
08:03My apologies.
08:04You want us to start
08:04at the top of the list?
08:05No.
08:06They're in order of assessed threat.
08:07We'll take the most worrying.
08:08Why don't you start around...
08:1120?
08:11Sure thing.
08:16Start at 20?
08:17He might as well have just said
08:18waste your entire day
08:19tug-of-mouth, breathers.
08:20What I'm saying,
08:21if we work for ourselves,
08:22we wouldn't have to jump
08:23through anybody else's hoops.
08:24Doing what?
08:26Well...
08:28All right,
08:29so we have narrowed it down
08:30to private investigation term
08:32or spa resort.
08:33Two solid choices
08:34and we've only been thinking on it
08:35for three wasted time door knocks.
08:37Who's lucky number four?
08:38Jerry Hudson,
08:39a 34 gun enthusiast,
08:42posts under the username
08:43six separate tyrannis414
08:45and threats to the president
08:46are varied in many.
08:49Mr. Hudson, LAPD,
08:51we have a few questions for you.
08:57Angela?
09:03Jerry Hudson, LAPD!
09:05Come out with your hands up!
09:40Claire,
09:41you got anything?
09:52Angela?
10:01Impressive and terrifying.
10:03Everything's labeled.
10:05Makes it easy to see what's missing.
10:07What is most troubling
10:08is sniper riffle.
10:09I think it means rifle.
10:11I think his spelling
10:12is the least of our problems.
10:21Now, it is important
10:21that you be completely clear
10:23with your CI.
10:24That's a delicate balance.
10:25You want to motivate your CI
10:26to cooperate,
10:27but at the same time,
10:28you can't keep him out of jail.
10:29You can't even promise
10:30to be lenient.
10:31I'm out of the DA.
10:31Got it.
10:32Andy, it's good to see you.
10:34Thanks for taking the time.
10:35You know, Paula,
10:35I gotta make this quick, though,
10:36because my boss,
10:36he's all over me
10:37about the business I have
10:38with the money.
10:38I mean, how am I supposed
10:39to know Obama's not on the 100?
10:42Those fakes can be tricky.
10:43Exactly!
10:45So, what's up?
10:45I have a business proposition.
10:47You've got connections
10:48on your side of the law.
10:49I've got connections
10:49on my side of the law.
10:51What do you say
10:51we work together?
10:52You want me to snitch?
10:53Nah, you have to tell me
10:53anything you don't want to.
10:54But if you hear something
10:55you want to pass along,
10:56hit me up.
10:57How much is it worth to you?
10:58Well, let's not focus
10:59on the money.
10:59So, nothing?
11:00Look, LAPD's budget
11:01is limited,
11:02but the real benefit
11:03is our relationship.
11:04You help me,
11:05I help you.
11:06I mean, how?
11:07We can discuss that.
11:09So, let's discuss it now.
11:137 out of 15.
11:14Detectives requesting
11:151021 first sign, mate.
11:17Copy, calling shortly.
11:18Look, you murdered someone,
11:20I can't help you, right?
11:21But smaller offenses,
11:22I have some leeway.
11:23Okay.
11:24I can see the value in that.
11:25Okay.
11:26All right.
11:26We gotta go.
11:28Here's my card.
11:30The cell is on there.
11:32Thanks, man.
11:33Hey, you don't want to pop
11:34for your leave?
11:34I'll just open a bottle of vodka.
11:36We don't drink on a job.
11:37Yeah, me neither.
11:38Yeah.
11:42What?
11:43Nothing.
11:44You happy without that win?
11:46Yes, sir.
11:47Now it's up to Andy.
11:52How am I supposed to make sure
11:54POTUS is never 10 minutes
11:55away from a hospital?
11:557 out of 300.
11:57We question supervisor
11:58on blicks and hortens.
11:59Priority x-ray.
12:007 out of 300 responding.
12:07Okay.
12:18Hey.
12:20Must be bad
12:20if the watch commander came out.
12:21That's not good.
12:22Heavily-armed suspect
12:22on the Secret Service
12:23watch list is in the wind.
12:24What exactly is this guy's
12:25history with the president?
12:26Cyber threat team
12:27flagged Hudson a year ago.
12:28He was posting about revolution,
12:29rooting out to hear
12:30any all-standard fare.
12:31About six months ago,
12:32he started demanding
12:33a meeting with the president,
12:34sending handwritten letters
12:35directly to the White House.
12:36We'll need copies
12:36of those letters.
12:37I'll send you copies
12:38of our reports.
12:39Not the reports,
12:39the originals.
12:40I can assure you
12:40our analysts are very thorough.
12:42No doubt, but I insist.
12:44Just say yes.
12:46Fine.
12:46But I want every available officer
12:48out looking for this guy.
12:49Absolutely.
12:51Sir, you go.
12:53You'll have all available resources
12:54in full coordination
12:55with our divisions.
12:56Good.
12:57I want to embed
12:58Agent Kelvin with your team.
12:59Yeah, no problem.
13:00We can do that for you.
13:01Officer Juarez?
13:04Agent Kelvin's gonna ride with you.
13:05He's gonna help question
13:06Hudson's family members.
13:07Let's go.
13:09At what point
13:10do you cancel
13:10the president's visit?
13:11We are nowhere near that point.
13:13For all we know,
13:14this guy could be out
13:14on a hunting trip.
13:15I know that this is
13:16high-level stuff.
13:18This is my everyday.
13:19So let's just chase down
13:20the bad guy
13:21and check him off the list.
13:24I'm just gonna say it.
13:25Not a fan.
13:26That's twice.
13:26It felt like he defaulted
13:27talking to Tim, right?
13:28Am I crazy?
13:28No.
13:29I don't think he meant
13:30anything by that.
13:30We've worked together before.
13:31He's just comfortable with me.
13:32All right.
13:33I'll go talk to him.
13:34No, no.
13:34That definitely is worse.
13:36It's fine.
13:37We eat ingrained misogyny
13:39for breakfast.
13:40Lopez just sent details
13:42on our suspect,
13:42Jerry Hudson.
13:43She wants us to talk
13:44to Jerry's coworkers
13:45at Third Street Surplus.
13:46Copy that.
13:48That Lopez again?
13:50Fast-handed.
13:50He's got a lead already?
13:52Not exactly.
13:53It's mostly memes.
13:55Oh, this one's not a meme.
13:56He wants to know
13:57if I can track down a...
13:59girl he once dated.
14:00She was smoking hot.
14:01What if she's gotten fat?
14:02Never mind.
14:03He's not interested.
14:07You're an Aries?
14:08Oh, yeah.
14:09It was a gift.
14:11I'm a cancer.
14:12Of course.
14:12And I bet
14:13you're a Gemini ascending.
14:15You're good.
14:15I dabble.
14:17But I've learned
14:18to downplay it at work.
14:19Oh, me too.
14:20Everyone is so judgmental
14:21of New Age spirituality.
14:24How long have you been
14:25in the Secret Service?
14:26I joined right out of college.
14:28Let me guess.
14:29You watched
14:30In the Line of Fire
14:31at an impressionable age?
14:33Not exactly.
14:34Oh.
14:35I don't know you
14:36well enough yet.
14:37Oh, come on.
14:38This shop is a safe space.
14:40Here, I'll go first.
14:44I believe the reason
14:45why Tarot works
14:46is because
14:48it's connected
14:49to the non-linearity
14:50of time.
14:51So the Tarot
14:51isn't sending you
14:52a message.
14:53You are sending yourself
14:54a message from the future
14:55by influencing the cards.
14:57I have never thought
14:59about it that way before.
15:00That makes a lot of sense.
15:01I know.
15:02So, what made you
15:04want to protect
15:04the president?
15:07I had all these dreams
15:08when I was a kid.
15:10Real vivid.
15:11And they had all these
15:13historical details
15:14that I just couldn't
15:14possibly know
15:15any other way.
15:16Like from a past life?
15:17Yeah.
15:18And I realized
15:19I was Abraham Lincoln.
15:21Reborn.
15:22Like Abraham Lincoln,
15:24Lincoln?
15:24That's the one.
15:26Well, that's why
15:27you joined the Secret Service.
15:29To stop what happened
15:30to you
15:30from happening
15:31to another president.
15:33It's not what I put
15:34on my application,
15:35but, yeah.
15:37Well, that's amazing.
15:39Okay.
15:407 Adam 13,
15:41EMT report triggered
15:41Arbolo.
15:42Suspect Jerry Hudson
15:43was just taken
15:44to St. Stephen Hospital.
15:45You're the closest unit.
15:46Control, show us responding.
15:51Hey, did you just
15:52bring in Jerry Hudson?
15:53Yeah, he was in
15:54a single car accident.
15:55Lost control
15:55in an intersection,
15:56hit a light pole.
15:56We need to talk to him.
15:57He's being triaged
15:58in baseball.
15:59He just stopped.
16:01Call security,
16:01tell them to lock
16:02down the hospital.
16:02Any chance he's armed?
16:03I did a pretty
16:04thorough exam.
16:05If there was a gun,
16:06I would have felt it,
16:06but there was
16:07an empty knife sheet.
16:09Okay, 71813,
16:10I need additional units
16:11to St. Stephen Hospital
16:12for at-march suspect
16:14Jerry Hudson.
16:15Description to follow.
16:16Brown hair,
16:17blue jeans,
16:17white shirt,
16:18blood on his face
16:19and neck
16:19from a head injury.
16:23Nothing.
16:27What happened
16:27to his car?
16:28They were hooking it
16:29up to go to the
16:29impound lot
16:30when I left.
16:38Half a mile on foot
16:39with a hair injury?
16:41I bet we'd beat him here.
16:45You'd lose that bet.
16:467 Adam 15,
16:47eyes on Hudson.
16:48We need backup
16:49at Mid-City.
16:49Good.
17:26Motor pole guys are going to kill me.
17:27Shots get damaged all the time. It's not your fault.
17:29I've totaled five.
17:30Seriously?
17:32Back in Texas, they would give you a medal for being a proper lawman.
17:36Hey, they found the tow truck abandoned a half mile away.
17:39It shouldn't be hard to find him, right? He won't make it far on foot.
17:41We have no idea how long he's been planning this.
17:43He could have switch cars stashed across the city, people helping him.
17:45Secret service has to cancel the visit now, right?
17:47I wouldn't count on that.
17:48But they are changing his motorcade route, so I've got to go.
17:50What do you want us to do, Sarge?
17:52Right. Um, okay, get back to the station.
17:54Check in with Harper and Lopez.
17:56They're talking to Hudson's ex-girlfriend,
17:57so hopefully they'll learn something that'll help us find him.
17:59All right.
18:02How are you doing, Margaret? I am Detective Harper.
18:04This is Detective Lopez.
18:06Hi.
18:07I hope you don't mind. My mom wanted to come.
18:09Whatever makes you most comfortable.
18:10I always knew the jury was bad news.
18:12Mom.
18:13Well, I did.
18:14How long did you two date?
18:16About ten months.
18:17Six months.
18:18Not too long.
18:18But every time I tried to break it off, he had some crisis, and I felt guilty, so I stayed.
18:23When did his obsession with the president start?
18:25Um, he was already a little bit paranoid when I first met him.
18:30But it just felt like talk.
18:32Conspiracies about the deep state, you know.
18:35But then it got worse.
18:37He got worse.
18:39He thought that he was being watched, said his boss was CIA,
18:42that strangers on the street were reporting on him.
18:44He thought that if he could get to the president, he could make it stop.
18:47I gently pushed back, tried to encourage him to go see someone.
18:50He accused me of being one of them, threatened to hurt me.
18:54Did he?
18:55No.
18:57He punched a hole in the wall and left.
18:59I changed the locks.
19:00Took my vacation time, went camping for three weeks.
19:04By the time I got back, he seemed to have moved on.
19:09It's such a tragedy.
19:12Really, he used to be a nice guy.
19:15Honey.
19:15Mom.
19:17He was.
19:18Made me feel special.
19:20Made me laugh.
19:22Um, and I just watched him go down the rabbit hole,
19:25and there was nothing that I could do to save him.
19:28Do you have someplace safe you can stay until he's in custody?
19:32She can stay with me.
19:33I have a shotgun, and I'm not afraid to use it.
19:35Let's try and avoid that.
19:37We'll give you a panic button and have units check on you regularly.
19:39Listen, you knew him as well as anyone.
19:42Do you really think that he would hurt the president?
19:46Uh, I think that Jerry is a very disturbed man
19:50who has the means and ability to do great violence.
19:56Hey, so, how'd it go today?
19:59Well, we have an armed wannabe assassin on the loose.
20:02President lands in 16 hours.
20:03Other than that...
20:04It's always something.
20:06Is there anything I can do?
20:07No.
20:08All under control.
20:08Secret Service brought additional resources.
20:10Nightship detectives are fully briefed, as are the sergeants.
20:13Okay.
20:14Good night.
20:19Hey, hi.
20:20I have bad news.
20:21I heard you have to redo the motorcade route.
20:23Yes.
20:23So, um, I'm gonna need to rain check on our romantic first night living together dinner.
20:27I'm sorry.
20:28It's okay.
20:29All right.
20:29You want me to stay around and help?
20:30No.
20:32You're worried it'll look like I don't trust you and I'm taking over.
20:35Yes.
20:35Even though I know that's not what you'd be doing,
20:37it's just, you know, appearances are important,
20:39especially right at the beginning of a new job, so...
20:41It's okay.
20:42Listen, I'll keep my ringer on.
20:43Call me if you have any questions, and no one needs to know.
20:47You know, in my mind, I'm kissing you right now.
20:53You know, in my mind, I'm kissing you right now.
20:54So, first day is my T.O.
20:55How did I do?
20:56As Sergeant Bradford would say, you performed all tasks adequately.
21:00My CI choice was, uh, disappointing.
21:03Well, I don't know.
21:03Maybe he'll pay off.
21:06We're good.
21:07We'll see.
21:08Maybe Abraham Lincoln was just messing with you.
21:11I thought about that, but he seems so earnest.
21:13Like, I think he really believes it.
21:17Are you sure you don't want to come sit on the couch?
21:19I'm not used to all this soft furniture,
21:21so it's going to take me a minute.
21:24Hey, even if Agent Past Live does believe it,
21:27is that such a bad thing?
21:28Everyone thinks they were someone special in their past life.
21:31No, but there's no way that everyone was Cleopatra or Diego Rivera.
21:35You know what the problem is?
21:36I think it says something about his personality, you know?
21:39Like, it's so self-aggrandizing.
21:41Out of all my past lives, not a single one was famous.
21:45You remember your past lives? Like, all of them?
21:47Well, let's not get into it.
21:48Who keeps texting you?
21:50My CI.
21:51Well, if it's important, take the call.
21:54Let's see.
21:58It's a video of a kangaroo fighting a deer.
22:01Okay, I have not seen this.
22:11No.
22:12Line of sight is too clear on the western edge.
22:16This guy's a sniper.
22:18Take another run at it.
22:20We'll be back at 4 a.m. for an update.
22:33Hello?
22:34Am I talking to Sergeant Chen or LIGF Lucy?
22:37I don't even know anymore.
22:39Still working on the motorcade, Ronald?
22:40You know, here's the thing.
22:41I cannot shut Sepulveda down for three hours.
22:44It's just not even on the table.
22:45And don't even get me started on Wilshire.
22:47We do not have the manpower to cover even half of those rooftops, so...
22:50So it's going to be an all-nighter?
22:52For sure.
22:52Have you eaten, at least?
22:54No, but it's not a big deal.
22:55I mean, there's a vending machine that I can go get something from.
23:00God forbid.
23:04This is really sweet.
23:05I'm going to cry.
23:06At work, you would never.
23:08You're right.
23:09Have you changed your mind about help?
23:13No, but you could stay and eat with me and listen while I complain about the Secret Service
23:18without offering any advice, like the supportive, live-in boyfriend you are.
23:24You got it.
23:25If we live in a disaster-prone area, we need to be ready for anything.
23:29And if we raised chickens, we'd have guaranteed source of protein.
23:33How are you going to protect them from the coyotes?
23:35I'll build them a fortress in the yard.
23:37I'll have my strong, handsome husband build them a fortress in the yard.
23:42I'm scared, but as you can see, the suspect has barricaded himself inside the dispensary
23:45and is refusing to come out.
23:47You can arrest me!
23:48I have immunity!
23:49Call Officer Finn!
23:53Great.
23:59Hey, uh, what's up?
24:01What's Channel 7?
24:03Nolan told me to turn it on.
24:04Oh, it's an old people's way to watch the news.
24:08The suspect is still refusing to comply with the police.
24:11Customers and staff are-
24:12Andy, Andy, what the hell are you doing?
24:14I need you to call up the cops, man.
24:15No, you need to put the phone down and walk out of the door with your hands on your head.
24:18You said you could get me out of trouble!
24:19So you went to rob a pot dispensary to test that out?
24:22No.
24:23Call enforcement hopes drawn out as quickly as possible.
24:27I'm in trouble.
24:28You're in trouble.
24:33Penn, do you know how much trouble you caused last night?
24:35The Department of Public Relations has been fielding calls nonstop
24:38about cops making immunity deals with dirtbags.
24:39It was entirely my fault, sir.
24:40I was unclear with my CI.
24:42In Miles' defense.
24:43No, there is no defense for him or you.
24:45Letting him make a CI deal with Fast Andy?
24:47You know better than that.
24:48I was giving him enough space to make it a teachable moment.
24:50Well, now it's a teachable moment for both of you.
24:52How do you think this looked on my first day as watch commander?
24:54I'm so sorry, sir.
24:55I would bear you both under the doghouse,
24:57but the president lands in two hours,
24:59and we are no closer to finding Jerry Hudson.
25:01Suit up!
25:02Yes, sir.
25:02Yes, sir.
25:04Once again, I'm so sorry, sir.
25:06Noted.
25:07Now, get your head in the game.
25:08Today's going to be a bear.
25:09We'll deal with the fallout tomorrow,
25:10if we still have jobs.
25:14I don't think you see my vision.
25:16Okay, a security company slash resort slash makeup line
25:18is hard to picture.
25:20We wouldn't do them all at once.
25:22Morning.
25:23Wesley is killing my dream.
25:24Uh, it's not your dream.
25:26You came up with it yesterday.
25:28I'm going to work.
25:33Force of habit?
25:34No, close the door.
25:37First of all, I want to be clear.
25:39This is temporary.
25:42With the president coming to town,
25:44they want a seasoned veteran back in the office.
25:46Which is why they asked me to return as watch commander for the day.
25:49Okay.
25:49Damn, this has nothing to do with you or the job you're doing.
25:52I mean, it has something to do with it.
25:53The stakes are way too high.
25:54And God forbid something happens today.
25:56There can't be a newbie at the helm.
25:58It'll look like we're winning unprepared.
26:00I get it.
26:00All right, what do you need from me?
26:01Get everybody in roll call.
26:03Yes, sir.
26:03All right.
26:12All right.
26:14This is only temporary, so please try to contain your disappointment.
26:19Now, we're all aware of the most pressing issue.
26:22The president lands in two hours and we have a one to be assassin on the loose.
26:25The decision has been made to continue to visit, so I need everyone on this.
26:30Detectives Harper and Lopez and Agent Butler will get you up to speed.
26:33Our suspect is Jerry Hudson, avid collector of conspiracy theories and weapons, the most alarming of which is at Ferret
26:39M82.
26:40According to the range master at Hudson's range, Hudson is accurate up to 800 yards.
26:44The two stops that POTUS is making, first at UCLA for a speech, then at a fundraiser at Hancock Park,
26:49are well secured.
26:50But we are adding an awning to cover the entrance and exit at each location.
26:54Sergeant Bradford will be coordinating motorcade route.
26:56No, that assignment will remain with Sergeant Chen.
26:58I'm a utility player today.
27:00Fine.
27:01As of 0600 this morning, we have locked in a primary and secondary route for both locations.
27:06Because of the elevated threat level, street closures will be more extensive than normal.
27:11I know, but it is what it is.
27:14Be prepared for angry motorists and an increase in reckless behavior.
27:19You got anything to add?
27:23Listen.
27:24Today is why we wear the uniform.
27:27Not just to keep the president safe, but to ensure the safety of all Angelenos.
27:32Communication is key.
27:34Eyes open.
27:35Stay sharp.
27:37Let's win the day.
27:43Nice speech.
27:45And thank you.
27:46I don't need to pay the demotion forward.
27:48Look, your plan is great.
27:49You thought through threat, seasoned agents would have missed.
27:52Are you okay?
27:54I'm fine, Sergeant Chen.
27:56What's our first order of business?
27:59Shutting down the west side of Los Angeles.
28:01Here we go.
28:05I need a tow truck in Sector 7, north side of 4th.
28:18Jerry's creative spelling does not make his angry letters to the president any easier to read.
28:23Took me a minute to figure out he wasn't raging against pubic policy.
28:27Cubic?
28:27Oh, right.
28:28Public.
28:29That's almost as good as the deep state will know my furry.
28:32Hard to say who he hates the most.
28:33The president, Justice Department, CIA, or the English language.
28:38No, it's definitely the FBI.
28:39I can't tell you how many times he's railed against the Thebes.
28:44Actually, it doesn't say the Thebes.
28:46It says Thebes betrayed him.
28:47The Thebes deserves to die.
28:50The Thebes as in Phoebe.
28:53Margaret Phoebe Dawes.
28:56I think I figured out when we're wrong on Thursday.
28:59You ignored my advice and misled a CEO.
29:02That's it.
29:03What I realize is I've had a lot of coaches in my day, and I tend to respond best to
29:06real hard asses.
29:08Like Tim's?
29:08Yeah, more of a drill sergeant type.
29:10Look, so if I'm messing up, just get in my face.
29:12Yeah, I can take it.
29:16Yeah, what do you got?
29:17Husson's plan is in his letters.
29:19Let me guess.
29:19Kill the president?
29:20Well, no, he's starting with Thebes.
29:22Phoebe, his ex-girlfriend's middle name.
29:23We have to get to her now.
29:25We're on the way.
29:25Come on.
29:33You've reached Margaret.
29:34Sorry I missed you.
29:35Hey, it's Detective Harper.
29:36Call me as soon as you get this.
29:38Okay, thanks.
29:39She's not with her mom either.
29:41Wait, hold on.
29:43Hey, Margaret.
29:44Where are you?
29:44I'm at work.
29:45Okay, I need you to get out of there and go someplace safe.
29:48Harry's coming, isn't he?
29:49We are on our way right now.
29:52What was that?
29:53That's him.
29:54You gotta hide.
29:54I need all available units at 4262, Warner.
29:57Any room with a door that locks a bathroom or...
29:59My box office.
30:00Okay, that's perfect.
30:01Barricade yourself in there.
30:02Do not come out until we get there.
30:04Okay.
30:05Run.
30:06Run.
30:06Run.
30:07Run.
30:07The police are out there.
30:08Hide.
30:09Hide.
30:09Go, go, go, go, go, go, go.
30:11Run!
30:11Go, go, go, go.
31:02You have to wait for me, Mitchell?
31:03No.
31:04We're going in.
31:05Good.
31:07You good?
31:16Go.
31:16Get out.
31:17Go.
31:19Come on.
31:19Don't stop until you get across the street.
31:21We'll go left.
31:22You take center.
31:22Copy.
31:24So let me be careful, the officer, Penn.
31:26There is no room for you to be a cowboy today.
31:29We have both seen firsthand how things can go wrong in a gunfight.
31:31Stay on my six, focus on your sector, and control your fire.
31:35Yes, sir.
31:36Let's do this.
32:05Did you hear that?
32:13Is anyone injured?
32:15No.
32:15We're okay.
32:16Does anyone know what Margaret is?
32:17No, we haven't seen her.
32:18All right.
32:18Stay low.
32:19Stay quiet.
32:20We have additional units on the way.
32:21We have six secured upstairs.
32:22Margaret is not with them.
32:23Repeat, Margaret is not with them.
32:33All right.
32:33Stay here.
32:34Protect them.
32:34What?
32:35Don't argue.
32:35Just do it.
32:36Yes, sir.
32:43Help.
32:50Number two.
32:56Let's go.
33:23Shoot her down.
33:25Suspect down.
33:29Control 715.
33:30We have a suspect in custody.
33:31Need an ambulance for one suspect.
33:33Two gunshot wounds in the shoulders.
33:34He's conscious and breathing.
33:35We are code four.
33:37Hey, you okay?
33:39Yeah.
33:41Is it over?
33:42Yeah, it's over.
33:43It's okay.
33:45It's okay.
33:48Who am I kidding?
33:49I do this job for free.
33:55Well, POTUS is in the air, and we are out of here.
33:58Thank God.
33:59No, no, not that I'm expressing relief that you are leaving.
34:03It's just this town loses their mind when you disrupt their commute.
34:06I totally understand.
34:07It was a pleasure working with you.
34:09Likewise.
34:09I really mean it.
34:11I don't tell too many people about the past life thing, and it was nice talking to someone
34:16who believes me.
34:18Of course.
34:19And who knows?
34:21Maybe we connect so well because in a past life, I was Mary Lincoln.
34:27Or Donna Wilkes Booth.
34:29I'm kidding.
34:31I was kidding.
34:34Okay, I don't take myself that seriously, right?
34:38Kevin Kelvin, the Secret Service agent.
34:39His name is Kevin Kelvin?
34:41Yes.
34:41Not the point, but you know what?
34:44Never mind.
34:44I'm just glad this crazy day is over.
34:47I heard you guys were the heroes.
34:49He's doing our job.
34:50Oh, he's being modest.
34:51Your former training officer is as brave as the first man who ate an oyster.
34:55Don't I know it.
34:59I've been thinking about your coaching preference.
35:01The drill sergeant thing?
35:02Yeah.
35:02I'm not going to do that.
35:03We don't always get to pick the personality of our supervisors, and it's not my job to be
35:08your preferred T.O.
35:09It is your job to learn how to deal with me.
35:12Got it?
35:12Got it.
35:13Good.
35:14That was a very drill sergeant thing to say.
35:18I continue multitudes.
35:25Hey.
35:25Hey.
35:26Thanks for stepping in today.
35:27There's nothing you couldn't have done.
35:29Brass just doesn't know you.
35:31So start forging those relationships.
35:32Bring coffee to the weekly meetings, memorize their kids' names.
35:35I get it.
35:35I need to work on my social game.
35:37Exactly.
35:38Lucy can give you some pointers.
35:40All right.
35:40That's it.
35:41All yours.
35:42Tell you what.
35:43This job's a lot harder than I thought it would be.
35:46If it's any consolation, it doesn't get any easier.
35:49Great to hear.
35:50If you need anything, I just want to talk.
35:52I know where to find you.
35:53All right.
35:55Sir.
35:57Got a minute?
35:59Yeah.
36:00Hey, listen.
36:01Nice work today.
36:03Your accommodation is being talked about, which should put this fast Andy screw up to bed.
36:06About that.
36:06Um, can I speak freely?
36:09Sure.
36:11Officer Penn is my rookie now.
36:13But I can't train him effectively if I have you second-guessing my methods every shift.
36:18Now, I am aware you have a decade of seniority over me.
36:22You're right.
36:23I am painfully aware of what second-guessing feels like, and it won't happen to you again.
36:28Officer Penn is yours to train.
36:30That said, fast Andy was a perfect storm of stupid.
36:33And as your watch commander, it is my job to yell at you if your training produces a bad result.
36:37Understood.
36:40Uh, for what it's worth, I admire how you handled yourself today.
36:45That could not have been easy.
36:53That was nice.
36:55So, are you ready to go home for our first official night together?
37:02God, yes.
37:03You know, great work with the president's visit today.
37:06I know, right?
37:08Thank you for saying that.
37:09So, I changed my mind.
37:11I know.
37:12Fully endorsed my wife, embracing a lifestyle that involves zero gunfights for presidential assassins.
37:16Sorry, you missed your window.
37:18I already gave up on that athleisure wear company.
37:20I didn't even know that was on the table.
37:21And all the other new hustles Harper and I are dreaming about.
37:25I'm not ready to quit this job just yet.
37:27Yeah, I figured.
37:29But I do have a new dream.
37:31It involves a suite at the Four Seasons.
37:34Can I?
37:35Yes.
37:35My mom's watching the kids.
37:37I'll meet you in the hotel bar in 30 minutes.
37:41Yeah.
37:42You'll be Max, an international man of misery.
37:47And I'll be Pristina, an insatiable corporate shark in town for a conference.
37:53I'd love that for us.
37:55Can I get your ass in the car?
37:56I'll be there.
37:56I'll be there in 30.
37:59Okay.
38:05Welcome home.
38:08I got a smile done before.
38:11Look, I wasn't sure where you wanted anything, so I held off.
38:16Oh, it's my baby.
38:18Come here.
38:19Hi.
38:21This is kind of overwhelming.
38:23Yeah.
38:24There's a lot to do.
38:25You want to just go out to dinner?
38:26Yes.
38:27I really, really do.
38:28Can we bring Kojo?
38:29It's going to severely limit our restaurant options.
38:32But, I mean, how could we not?
38:34For sure.
38:34Kojo!
38:35Let's go.
38:36We're going to dinner.
38:36Good boy.
38:37Let's go.
38:37Let's go.
38:38Come here.
38:39Okay.
38:40All right.
38:40You ready?
38:41Yeah.
38:41Let's do it.
38:42Come on.
38:43Wait.
38:43Wait.
38:44Wait.
38:46Wait.
38:48Okay, now we can go.
38:50Come on.
38:58The Pits' Noah Wiley and stand-up comedian Tig Notaro on a new Jimmy Kimmel Live later tonight.
39:06Wow.
39:07What?
39:07Nolan, you arrested a guy this morning?
39:10I caught him trespassing at the rec center.
39:12There was a triple homicide and their 15-year-old daughter was dragged into the woods.
39:16All they had was a fingerprint.
39:18Don't do it now.
39:20It's in our best interest to keep him in the dark.
39:22So you should do the interview.
39:24He's not just a murderer.
39:25He's worse.
39:29I have found a new soulmate.
39:31He's got another girl.
