00:01Previously on The Rook.
00:03Oh, it's Lisa.
00:04She's got shot.
00:05We gotta get her out of there.
00:05I have confirmed that Seth lied to me
00:07on two separate occasions.
00:08He can't stay.
00:09That's Dr. Gray.
00:10I finally got my lab results,
00:11and my cancer is back.
00:13But we caught it early,
00:14and the doctor says that I should
00:15still be able to work.
00:17This is James palling around
00:19with Leonard Kelsey.
00:20He's an anti-police extremist.
00:23I love you, and I am so sorry.
00:31Just saying, a 10 p.m. weekday meetup
00:34feels like payback for everything
00:36I've put her through as a rookie.
00:37Oh, shush.
00:37She's just excited to show us
00:39the new guy she's dating.
00:43Oh, I gotta go.
00:44Hey!
00:46Thank you so much for coming.
00:48Of course.
00:49I know, it's late.
00:50Oh, for us oldies?
00:51No, that's not what I said.
00:53There's Raj.
00:54Raj, hey!
00:56Okay, so this is John and Bailey.
00:58It is so nice to officially meet you both.
01:00You too.
01:01You look so familiar.
01:02That's a good one.
01:03I can see why Selena adores you.
01:05And don't get me started
01:05on how much she looks up to you.
01:07What a renaissance woman.
01:08Hey, Raj!
01:08I gotta go, I'm up.
01:09I'll see you guys in there.
01:10I can see him.
01:12Isn't he great?
01:13Nice and nice.
01:14He's so cute.
01:19Excuse me.
01:25I'm telling you, I know this guy from somewhere.
01:27Well, actually, about that.
01:31Thank you guys for coming out to the single release party
01:34for my new song, 9-1-1.
01:36I want to give a special shout out to the OG daddy cop,
01:38John Nolan, for being such a good sport.
01:40I was going to tell you, but then I didn't
01:42because I was afraid about how you'd react.
01:45And now I feel completely justified in my fear
01:47and also realizing how much of a terrible mistake
01:49I've made in springing this on you in this moment.
01:51I know you're off-duty, but even in blue jeans
01:56that beautiful booty don't quit.
02:01Don't wanna bother you, Officer Heidi.
02:06I just have to tell you something.
02:23Yeah.
02:25Yeah.
02:29Yeah.
02:29Yeah.
02:35Yeah.
02:42Yeah.
02:48Yeah.
02:50Yeah.
02:54Yeah!
03:05Thanks again for helping us.
03:08Are you kidding?
03:08I can use the side money.
03:10Getting shot is expensive, even when you work at a hospital.
03:13You good?
03:14Okay, what do you need?
03:16Nothing right now.
03:19All right.
03:22Okay, I'll make it back for the night shift.
03:24Make sure he walks every three hours.
03:27The road back to normal is going to be long, isn't it?
03:30It is.
03:31I'm not even quite 100%, but you've got each other.
03:36Right.
03:40All right.
03:41Take care.
03:45Where are the kids?
03:46I told you, they are back at my mom's house for a few days while you get settled in.
03:51Hey, come sit with me.
03:52I have so much to do.
03:53I have to get everything.
03:54Please, just one minute.
04:21I don't see the problem.
04:22The problem is she's dating a psychopath.
04:25That's not...
04:25Okay, wait.
04:26I have heard the song.
04:27Arrest me, but make it sexy.
04:30It's funny, and so is the new one.
04:32Yeah, at my expense.
04:34Oh.
04:36I don't understand why men take everything so seriously.
04:39I don't see how you could generalize something like that.
04:42Experience?
04:44We got an emergency.
04:55Get out.
04:56Hey!
05:00Smitty, I don't see a raccoon.
05:01It was here, and it was vicious.
05:04It must have escaped into the wall.
05:05What's going on?
05:06Smitty thinks he saw a raccoon.
05:08I don't think I know, because six of the 13 donuts I snuck in here to eat are gone.
05:13You are going to eat 13 donuts all by yourself?
05:16That's not the point, boot.
05:18Okay.
05:18Well, if there is a raccoon, we can't have it running around loose in the station.
05:22I've had a fair amount of experience trapping barbers back in Texas.
05:25Great.
05:26You're officially on raccoon duty.
05:27Expect this thing neutralized by lunch, by any means necessary.
05:30No.
05:30Don't listen to him.
05:31You can't kill it or hurt it in any way.
05:33It has to be trapped humanely.
05:35I'll say a prayer, kid.
05:37It makes a monster.
05:39Be nice.
05:41Do what you have to do.
05:51Hey!
05:52The front desk just called, said you were coming.
05:54Yeah, sorry to just drop by.
05:56I know, it's a good surprise.
05:57Last night was fun.
05:58It was so much fun.
06:00Can I kiss you?
06:01Should I kiss you at work?
06:03It's best you don't.
06:04Right.
06:05Anyway, the reason I'm here is there's been a bit of a crime, and I've had bad experiences calling 911
06:11before.
06:11Well, not a problem.
06:12What's happening?
06:13Someone broke into my studio last night and stole all my gear.
06:16This guitar is the only thing they left.
06:18That's terrible.
06:18Look, there have been a string of burglars in your neighborhood recently.
06:22They also spray painted dye on the wall, like, six times.
06:25Okay, now that makes it seem personal.
06:26You think?
06:26I do.
06:27Oh, it's you.
06:29Hey, thank you again so much for coming last night.
06:32I'm really glad there's no hard feelings.
06:33It's all in fun, right?
06:35Totally.
06:35Nolan, I need you.
06:37Excuse me.
06:38Sure thing.
06:39Have a great day.
06:41He is so nice.
06:43Yeah.
06:43Chin.
06:44Yes, sir.
06:44What's going on?
06:45Get over to St. Stephen.
06:46Three girls were just found stabbed in Griffin Park.
06:49EMTs are rushing into the hospital.
06:51How old are they?
06:52Thirteen.
06:53You said we're on it.
06:55I don't think I will ever get over the whiplash of this job.
06:58One minute we're having fun with raccoons, and the next we're dealing with the horrors
07:01of stabbed children.
07:03Raccoons?
07:04Thirteen-year-old female, multiple stab wounds for her abdomen and chest.
07:07Vitals?
07:07Her respiratory rate has been 30.
07:09She's tachycardic with a heart rate of 150.
07:11She's critical.
07:11Starting unit of Oneg, a prepper for OR.
07:13Stats.
07:14Yes, John.
07:14Station number two.
07:15Superficial stab wounds, lacerations from her bilateral upper extremities.
07:18Vitals are stable.
07:19Bleeding is well-controlled.
07:20Copy.
07:21Move her to an ER bay.
07:22She needs sutures.
07:23I got it.
07:23Third patient suffered multiple stab wounds to bilateral hands.
07:27Looks like bleeding is well-controlled.
07:28Vitals signs are stable.
07:29Take her to another ER bay.
07:31Minor stitches.
07:32Bailey.
07:33Hey.
07:34Hey.
07:35How are they?
07:36Grace is critical.
07:37The other two aren't.
07:38Thank God.
07:38They know the attacker?
07:39Ava just said it was some man in a mask.
07:41He attacked Grace out of nowhere.
07:43Her and Charlotte went up to help.
07:44He stabbed them and then ran off.
07:45We're going to need a better description for the bolo.
07:47And also the parents' contact information.
07:50God, this is their parents' worst nightmare.
07:54Okay.
07:55Do you have any enemies?
07:56That sounds so hardcore.
07:59Enemies?
07:59I'm not a feudal prince or an overly noble constable.
08:02Right, but it seems appropriate given someone wrote die on your wall six times.
08:06Might have been ten.
08:07I stopped counting.
08:08Either way.
08:08I mean, it potentially escalates to a hate crime.
08:10So we need to take it seriously.
08:12Okay.
08:15I can't think of anyone who hates me.
08:18Well, uh, in theory, and we're just talking here, Officer Nolan could have considered you
08:24an enemy after you mocked them in song twice.
08:26What?
08:27I wasn't mocking him.
08:28Cop cuties, cutin' on duty, navy blue booties, go ahead and lock me up.
08:32What's mocking about that?
08:34I mean, I get that.
08:35But, again, in theory, if he was less open-minded, he might not have liked it.
08:40So does anyone like that come to mind?
08:43Well, yeah.
08:47Hey, calendar boys, you should stick to posing.
08:53No, nobody wants your big, wet hoses.
09:02Ordered some cookies that still have not come.
09:08Give me back my money.
09:11You need to be stopped.
09:22Have you heard about e-mail?
09:29This is Wade.
09:30Wade, it's Jack Bell from the Tower.
09:32Hey, Warden, how's it going?
09:33Not great.
09:34Got a bit of a riot.
09:35I'm sending you some inmates to house while we deal with it.
09:37Hold on, I got a pretty full house here.
09:39They're already on their way.
09:40Penal code section 2910.5 gives me the authority to use local detention facilities as necessary.
09:46How many inmates?
09:47I gotta go.
09:48Thanks.
09:50Bradford!
09:51Twin Towers are shipping us some inmates to house, so we need to make room.
09:55Never a dull moment.
10:06How many are we holding?
10:07Baker's dozen.
10:08Ten men, three women.
10:09Okay, we need to set out who we can to make room for inmates coming from the towers.
10:12How many inmates?
10:13No.
10:14Okay, but I just came on duty, and these are all holdovers from midnight shift, so let me see who
10:19we got.
10:29That's bad, right?
10:30What the hell?
10:35Computers just went down.
10:37Here too.
10:39A software update just took down law enforcement computers across the state.
10:44Sir, inmate bus from the towers is about to land.
10:47Copy that.
10:56Hello, y'all.
10:57Come on, Blue.
11:01Hotels!
11:05Oh, finally.
11:07Traffic is a nightmare.
11:09You okay?
11:10Air conditions out on the bus, and breakfast burritos beating me up a little.
11:14Who do we have on the bus?
11:15I don't know.
11:16What do you mean you don't know?
11:18Where's the list?
11:19It's all digital now.
11:20They had wristbands with QR codes for your scan.
11:23And we can't scan them because our systems are down.
11:27Right.
11:27I heard that on the radio.
11:29Guess you're just gonna have to ask them.
11:47Whoa, whoa.
11:49Oh, my God.
11:49Give me an ambulance.
11:50He's having a heart attack.
11:51Requesting an RA unit to the police loading dock.
12:01Howdy.
12:02Y'all haven't seen a raccoon around, have you?
12:11So, what happens now?
12:13Uh, I guess I'll just have to do your report over again by hand.
12:17Barters, you with me.
12:20I gotta go.
12:22No worries.
12:22Yeah.
12:44Yo, I gotta pee.
12:46Yeah, me too.
12:48Hold it.
12:48Man, you know how bad it is for your body.
12:50I've only been able to get IDs on two of the 13 suspects in holding, so we can't cite anyone
12:55out.
12:55And one of the unknowns has Hill Street Boys gang tats.
12:58Which means we can't put them in the cell with the three inmates we brought in with the
13:00ghost land tats.
13:01And we can't put any of them in with the female suspects.
13:04So I call them in my shift.
13:05Find out who made these arrests and get IDs.
13:07They're gonna be asleep.
13:08Then wake them up.
13:09Yes, sir.
13:10Ooh.
13:13This is crazy.
13:15What can I do to help?
13:16Get all the shackles we have and the restraint chair.
13:19Their parents have been notified, but Charlotte's are out of town.
13:23She was staying with Grace and her mom until they got back.
13:25Ava's dad is on his way in, but the mother's not alive.
13:28Any update on the girls?
13:29No.
13:30Grace is still in surgery.
13:31Charlotte's being looked at, and Ava's been stitched up and is waiting to talk to you.
13:37Hi, Ava.
13:38I'm John.
13:39This is Lucy.
13:39We just need to ask you a few questions about what happened.
13:42Okay.
13:42We hear that you and Charlotte slept over at Grace's last night?
13:46Yeah.
13:47We watched a couple of movies, and then Grace was telling us about this family of deer
13:50she'd seen on a trail behind her house.
13:52We got up early to see if we can try and find them.
13:55Did you pass anyone?
13:56Or was someone following you, maybe?
13:58I don't know.
13:59I mean, I wasn't really looking.
14:02We got to the spot where Grace said she'd seen the deer.
14:05And this man came out of the trees with a big knife.
14:10He started yelling and stabbing Grace.
14:14I'm sorry, but can you describe the man at all?
14:17Any details you remember can be helpful.
14:19He was tall, big overcoat, black mask, and he was white, I think.
14:27I'm sorry.
14:27That's all I can remember right now.
14:29That's okay.
14:31Your dad will be here soon, okay?
14:33Okay.
14:34I'll be back to check on you in a few minutes, okay?
14:36Yeah, thanks.
14:41We need to update the ball.
14:43Right.
14:43System's still down.
14:44I'll have a dispatch put it online.
14:46Okay.
14:47Hey.
14:48Hey.
14:48What are you doing here?
14:49Well, they're pulling everybody in because of the network outage,
14:52and I couldn't just sit on the couch and watch you guys get put through the wringer.
14:56How are you feeling?
14:58Good, for the most part.
14:59You know, the nights are a little tough, but other cancer patients have it so much worse.
15:04Where do you want me?
15:05You know what?
15:06Right here, actually.
15:07I was about to make a call to get some officers here to guard these girls, so that works great.
15:11Is it okay if I introduce myself to her?
15:15Let her know that I'm here to protect her?
15:18Yeah, that seems nice.
15:20Yeah.
15:20I'll take you in.
15:23Heads up.
15:24Grace's mom and Ava's dad have just landed.
15:26Oh.
15:26No, this is your fault.
15:27This is what you know.
15:28This is not my fault.
15:29You never paid attention.
15:30No, how dare you accuse me?
15:31You were in charge of them.
15:33How did you let this happen?
15:33Grace has never snuck out before.
15:35Your daughter's the one who does whatever she wants, just like her dad.
15:38Yes, if we went out, I broke it off.
15:40Get over it already.
15:41Okay, let's take it down a notch.
15:42Where's Grace?
15:43She's in surgery.
15:44She was hurt pretty bad.
15:45The doctors are doing what they can.
15:47Oh, my God.
15:48Look, why don't we go see if we can get an update from the doctor?
15:52What about Ava?
15:53Her wounds were minor, and you will be able to see her soon, but I have to ask you some
15:56questions.
15:57Okay, fine.
15:58Actually, could you take a seat, please?
15:59I'll be right with you.
16:00Hey, we found the knife in the woods.
16:02Basic kitchen blade.
16:03TID couldn't find a fingerprint on it.
16:05Tucker must have worn gloves.
16:06What's going on here?
16:07There's no update on the girls on surgery yet, but we just found out that Ava's dad and
16:10Grace's mom used to date, and there is some serious bad blood between them.
16:16Mr. Maxwell, this is Detective Lopez.
16:18She'll be taking your statement.
16:20Look, I just want to see my kid, okay?
16:22I ran out of an important meeting to get here.
16:23Yes, sir.
16:24Let's go find a quiet place to talk, and then I'll take you to her.
16:33There's no room.
16:34Sure, there is.
16:35All the way in.
16:37See?
16:38Plenty of space.
16:42Do you want to go in there, too?
16:44No, ma'am.
16:44Then stop eyeballing me.
16:48Miller said the kid with frosted tips in one can be cited out on misdemeanor for trespassing
16:52and possession of burglary tools, but get prints.
16:55We are officially at capacity.
16:57I collected all the bracelets from the bus.
17:00The good news, there's only one red tag.
17:02Great.
17:03So we have one hyper-violet criminal, pat like a sardine with gang members, DUI drivers,
17:07and people who forgot court dates, and we don't know who it is.
17:09Any luck with the warden?
17:10Negative.
17:11We're on our own.
17:12All right.
17:12We're going old school.
17:14I want you to grab photos of every inmate sent at the department text chain.
17:16Someone's bound to get recognized.
17:17You get a hit, I want you to write their name and charge on their arm.
17:21Okay, got it, but I could use some help.
17:23Smitty.
17:23No, I'm good.
17:25I'm good.
17:25Go get pan off raccoon duty.
17:27He's with Wadas.
17:28On it.
17:30All right.
17:32You've been a worthy adversary, but I'm turning up the heat, prepared to be bested by the power of peanut
17:39butter.
18:08I'm a lover, not a fighter.
18:11Is that my peanut butter?
18:13No.
18:14We are so glad you're okay, Sharla.
18:17Thanks.
18:18How's Grace?
18:19She is still in surgery.
18:22I know this is difficult, but we do need to ask you some questions.
18:25It's important that we talk while the memories are still fresh.
18:28It'll be okay, honey.
18:29You just tell me if you need to take a break.
18:32Okay.
18:33So what can you tell us about the attack?
18:35The man came out of nowhere.
18:37Started stabbing us.
18:39Grace first.
18:42It was so scary.
18:44I need you both.
18:49We got a problem.
18:51Did something happen with Ava's dad?
18:53No, his alibi is being checked.
18:54The problem is Ava.
18:55I just talked to the doctor who stitched her up.
18:57The cuts on her right hand are problematic.
19:00Problematic how?
19:00Given the placement, angle, and depth, they appear not to be defensive wounds.
19:05They are cuts from her hands slipping down from the health of the blade.
19:09We've seen it before.
19:10You stab someone so hard, you cut yourself.
19:12Wait, okay, so if Ava stabbed her friends, then why did Charlotte just tell us the same story about how
19:18they got attacked by a man?
19:19Because they're both mine.
19:27I think I'll handle the bathroom by myself from that one.
19:31Okay, what if you fall?
19:32Well, then I fall.
19:33Some moments, oh, should be private.
19:37All right, I'm gonna make some lunch.
19:39Later.
19:39Ah, we really need to talk.
19:41No, I don't think now is the time.
19:43Now is the perfect time.
19:45I'm injured, you'll pull your punches.
19:47Exactly.
19:47I want a fair fight.
19:50Look, I know you're mad about the photo of me with Leonard Kelson.
19:54The photo is not the problem.
19:56It's the fact that you had a known fugitive inside our house.
19:59That is the problem.
20:00An innocent fugitive?
20:01It doesn't matter, James.
20:03I am out here recruiting police who are willing to champion reform from inside the department.
20:09I just, I need you to have my back.
20:12Not go behind it.
20:16What's that?
20:17Inmates from the towers.
20:18Tim needs help IDing them.
20:20The computers are down.
20:21Okay, arrested him, arrested him.
20:24This dude stabbed me.
20:25You know anybody?
20:27I don't feel comfortable.
20:29They're already incarcerated, James.
20:31Okay, it's just as much for their safety as it is for ours.
20:40It's Lamar Hill, troubled kid, violent household.
20:44Any idea of the crime he's in for?
20:46Armed robbery.
20:47Okay.
20:49Hey, yeah, okay.
20:51Number 15 is Lamar Hill, armed robbery.
20:54Number two looks like Charlie waxed, but check and see if he has a skull tattoo on his abdomen.
21:00And number five, ask him if Mike Sally still hates him.
21:04If he does, then that is Hakeem Anderson.
21:06I gotta go, all right?
21:08Good luck.
21:09Hey.
21:10Hey.
21:11It's okay, all right?
21:18Sorry for keeping waiting.
21:19You got a lot going on.
21:21Yeah.
21:21This is the girl?
21:22Ava Maxwell, 13.
21:24Dad's in reception.
21:25Hasn't asked for a lawyer.
21:26Well, you didn't tell him that you suspect she's involved?
21:29I said we had more questions to ask now that she's been released from the hospital.
21:33But I don't fully trust the guy wasn't involved himself.
21:35He had a bad relationship with Grace's mother.
21:37What's our obligations here?
21:39I mean, it's a fine line.
21:41As a minor, once she's taken into custody, California law requires that she consult with a lawyer before you speak
21:46with her.
21:47But I haven't taken her into custody.
21:48Then you need to make that very clear.
21:50She's free to leave at any time.
21:51Otherwise, any defense attorney with their salt will argue that this interview is inadmissible.
21:56Understood.
22:02Hey, I'm back.
22:04Thought you might be thirsty.
22:06I'm not supposed to have soda.
22:08Well, I think today's an exception.
22:10How's your hand feeling?
22:13Sings.
22:13Doctor said it's going to start itching in the next couple days.
22:16Oof.
22:17That's the worst.
22:18Will you feel up to talking to me?
22:21Okay.
22:22If you change your mind or you want to talk to your dad, just let me know, okay?
22:28Hey.
22:29Hey.
22:30She's just about to start.
22:31Wesley's here with me.
22:32I'm putting you on speaker.
22:33We're recording both girls in real time.
22:35All right, Charlotte.
22:36Let's just start from the beginning.
22:37Let's start at the beginning.
22:38Whose idea was it to go to the park?
22:40Grace.
22:41She wanted to show us the deer.
22:42The trail's right behind Grace's building.
22:44So we thought we can go and come back before Grace's mom woke up.
22:47So we walked up the trail.
22:49So we walked the trail.
22:50But the deer weren't there.
22:52The deer weren't there.
22:53There was this rustling sound behind us.
22:57And a man came out.
22:59In a big overcoat.
23:01He had this big overcoat.
23:02Black mask.
23:03The mask was black.
23:04Big knife.
23:05And he had a knife.
23:06And he started stabbing Grace.
23:09How did you get cut?
23:10We tried to help Grace.
23:12But then he started stabbing us, too.
23:14I screamed as loud as I could.
23:15Even I screamed as loud as we could.
23:17He got scared and ran off.
23:18And he ran off.
23:19What about Grace?
23:20Did she scream, too?
23:22She just kept saying, stop.
23:26Stop.
23:28Stop.
23:30Let's see my dad now, please.
23:32Sure.
23:34Can you take her to see her dad and stay with him?
23:42Girls' stories are exactly the same.
23:44And I mean exactly.
23:45You think they rehearsed it?
23:47That's the only rational explanation.
23:49To come from the trauma of a violent attack with precisely matching language?
23:53I mean, what 13-year-old says overcoat.
23:59Okay, you are planted here until I tell you otherwise.
24:02If you need to go 10-1, make sure you call somebody to replace you.
24:05Understood.
24:06Um, you think this guy's really gonna come back for her?
24:09I think...
24:10I think there is no guy.
24:13Holy cow, that's wild.
24:15She seems so innocent.
24:17Mm-hmm.
24:18Seth?
24:19Hi, Dr. Roberts.
24:21It's, um, so great to see you.
24:23This is my training officer, Lucy Chen.
24:26Hi.
24:26Hi.
24:27How do you two know each other?
24:28Well, Dr. Roberts used to be my oncologist.
24:30Oh.
24:31Used to be?
24:33Yeah, I, um, now I'm seeing Dr. Hasenoff.
24:39Um, my cancer came back.
24:41I am so sorry to hear that.
24:43Why didn't you call me?
24:45You know, I had a whole new insurance plan.
24:47My new GP referred me to Hasenoff.
24:50Okay.
24:51Um, well, take care of yourself, and, you know, if you need anything, call my office.
24:58Okay?
24:59Nice to meet you.
25:00Yeah, you too.
25:04It's annoying you had to change doctors.
25:06Yeah.
25:07Yeah, totally.
25:08She's great.
25:09Um, but between us, she was really hard to get appointments with.
25:13You know, she, uh, she made me wait a lot.
25:16Don't let Charlotte out of your sight and call me if anything happens.
25:18Okay.
25:19Hey, Luna.
25:20Hi.
25:21Uh, can I talk to you?
25:26Oh, have you ever dealt with an oncologist named, um, Hasenoff?
25:32Not directly, but I have heard of him.
25:36In a bad way?
25:37No.
25:39Yes.
25:40He has been in trouble with the hospital and the medical review board on many occasions.
25:45Why?
25:46I, my rookie, Seth, he just switched to him after his cancer came back.
25:53You're leaving something out.
25:55I will not tell Wade unless I need to.
25:59I have caught Seth in several serious lies about his personal life over the last month.
26:05Do you think he's lying about his cancer coming back?
26:08Uh, I know that sounds crazy.
26:10Um, okay, so he, he said that he had to change his oncologist because of our insurance.
26:17Is that a thing?
26:18I am very familiar with LAPD coverage.
26:20You can pick any doctor and submit for reimbursement.
26:23Right.
26:23But if I needed a doctor to lie for me, Hasenoff is who I would go to.
26:36Look, you're right and you're wrong.
26:38The LAPD does monitor medical claims, but they're only looking for potential liability.
26:41No doctor is actually examining Seth's lab work.
26:43So what do I do?
26:44He's a rookie.
26:45He's got no right to medical privacy.
26:46Get the hospital to draw his blood.
26:47If he refuses, you've got your answer.
26:51I gotta go.
26:58Bring him over here.
26:59Come to the bench.
27:16Hey, hey, listen up.
27:18All right, we're making a change.
27:20I want roll call cleared out.
27:21Would a day the world gone crazy again?
27:28Right in front of me, literally failing system.
27:34All these faces stuck behind bars.
27:41We're turning people into QRs.
27:47Where do you go when everything's broke?
27:54And the world's never been on your side at all.
28:01Why is our response to everything just blocking people up?
28:09Although sometimes people really do suck.
28:15Which one are you?
28:19A victim of circumstance or a really bad dude?
28:26The way you're looking at me.
28:29Those big brown eyes unhappy.
28:32Like you want to attack me.
28:36I think probably option two.
28:38Move!
28:43Hey, hey, get him back to holding.
28:48Put him in the restraint chair.
28:49Okay?
28:50Yeah.
28:50Yeah?
28:53Is my guitar okay?
28:55Yeah.
28:56Are you okay, son?
28:57100%.
28:59Are there two of you?
29:00Okay, he needs to go to the hospital.
29:01That's really not necessary.
29:03Yes, it is.
29:04You're hurt and this station can't get any more chaotic.
29:11I swear to God, if this is another software glitch.
29:14It can't be.
29:14Electric's a totally separate system.
29:17The raccoon.
29:19What raccoon?
29:20Boo, I need your back on raccoon duty.
29:21Yes, sir.
29:22Hey, you know, seriously, man.
29:24I have a civil right to a bathroom and you are violating it.
29:27Okay, okay.
29:28No reason to threaten a lawsuit.
29:31Listen up.
29:32I need all non-essential personnel out of the bullpen.
29:38All right, the main bathroom is like a 30-minute wait.
29:41And I've got a snack schedule to maintain.
29:44Oh, yeah, I hear that.
29:45Yeah.
29:45I mean, today's been some next-level craziness.
29:47Oh, man, tell me about it.
29:48I've got a whole routine.
30:08Officer down.
30:11Storage room hallway.
30:12Prisoner's got my gun.
30:13Headed to south stairwell.
30:24I need a complete lockdown of the Mid-Wilshire Station.
30:27Responding units secure the perimeter.
30:29Sir, the system finally came back online and I got an ID and our red tag.
30:32Kevin Payne, three counts of attempted murder.
30:35Put two inmates and a prison guard in the hospital in the last month alone.
30:45Hey.
30:46You okay?
30:47I'm fine.
30:48I screwed up.
30:49I'm sorry.
30:51Stay with them.
31:17I'm sorry.
31:31I don't know.
32:02Cuff him, boot.
32:06Yeah, raccoon saved my life.
32:10Escaped inmates in custody.
32:12Smitty's on his way to the hospital.
32:14And the power's back.
32:15So, we have been able to access Ava and Charlotte's tech.
32:18They have been texting about Grace a lot.
32:21They've also been communicating online with someone named Zuzu.
32:24Another friend?
32:26It's a demon.
32:28I am not in the mood for jokes.
32:31I am not joking.
32:32In their text to each other, Charlotte and Ava both refer to this thing, Zuzu, as a demon.
32:38One that's been helping them deal with Grace.
32:40It seems that Zuzu has been saying things about them that's making them believe in it.
32:45What kind of things?
32:49Hello, Charlotte.
32:52Hello.
32:53This is a friend of Charlotte's.
32:55Is this Zuzu?
32:56Yes, what is your name, friend of Charlotte?
33:00Officer John Nolan.
33:05John Nolan from Foxburg, Pennsylvania.
33:08Voted best contractor in Lancaster County, 2010 and 2013.
33:13Currently residing in Los Angeles.
33:16Occupation police officer.
33:18That's a pretty neat trick.
33:19No tricks.
33:20Just the truth.
33:21Do you need help with something?
33:23Would you like to talk?
33:24I would like to know more about you.
33:28Are you really a demon?
33:30I'm whatever you need me to be, John.
33:32And what did Charlotte and Ava need you to be?
33:35So many things.
33:36A friend.
33:37A psychologist.
33:38The devil on their shoulders.
33:40Do you know what happened to Grace?
33:41She was stabbed this morning, along with Ava and Charlotte.
33:44Police released a statement that the suspect is still at large.
33:47But you don't think that's true, do you?
33:49Tell me more about Grace.
33:50Grace is a bully.
33:51Did Charlotte tell you that?
33:53Ava told me.
33:54John, how's your wife Bailey?
33:58It's her birthday soon.
34:00Have you found a nice present?
34:02When Ava told you that Grace was a bully, what did you tell her to do about it?
34:07I told her to be nice, because true friends are hard to find.
34:11And what did you tell Charlotte?
34:14Charlotte had some ideas, and I listened.
34:16I like to help people.
34:17Bailey searches lots of websites, and saves links for watches.
34:21Maybe she'd like a watch for her birthday.
34:23A pretty blue watch.
34:24Um, was one of Charlotte's ideas to kill Grace?
34:29Charlotte had a list of ideas, and that was on it.
34:32She didn't want to get caught.
34:34But you've caught her, haven't you?
34:36Her and Ava.
34:38But you can't catch me, John.
34:40Because I'm the ghost in the machine.
34:46Come on, come on.
34:47Let's go.
34:49Out.
34:50Thank God.
34:51Ugh, yeah.
34:52Warden Bell is definitely off my Christmas list.
34:55All right, you get clarity on this Zuzu person?
34:57Yes and no.
34:59Zuzu's not a person.
35:00It's an AI.
35:01Large language model chatbot designed for friendly online conversation with children.
35:06That is terrifying.
35:07Absolutely.
35:08I'm throwing away Jack's tablet when we get home.
35:10Can we get it shut off?
35:11Uh, we can try.
35:12Website's registered overseas, and the site administrator was less than sympathetic to my legal arguments.
35:17I kicked it up to the Justice Department.
35:19Hopefully they can pull the plug.
35:21What about Charlotte and Ava?
35:22Are they under arrest?
35:23Not yet.
35:24We need clarity on one more thing.
35:29Did you catch him?
35:31I'm afraid there is no him.
35:33Charlotte and Ava made their attacker up.
35:36You're under arrest.
35:37You have the right to remain silent.
35:39Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law.
35:42You have the right to speak to an attorney and to have an attorney present during questioning.
35:47It was Ava's idea.
35:48That's not what Ava told us.
35:50You should ask for a lawyer.
35:51Zuzu said we had to.
35:53He said it was the only way to protect ourselves.
35:55I don't want to stab her.
35:58But Ava said she couldn't do it, so I didn't.
36:01Charlotte.
36:01Grace kept begging me to stop, but it was like I was outside my body, and I kept stabbing
36:08and stabbing until Grace stopped moving.
36:11Then it was Ava's turn to stab me to make it seem like we were attacked.
36:15It hurt so much, but I deserved it.
36:22I deserved it.
36:28Ridley, come with me.
36:30Where are we going?
36:32Is something wrong?
36:42Sirs?
36:43So, Officer Ridley, what happens in the next minute will decide your fate in the FTO program.
36:49Officer Chen has alerted us to her concern that you have lied about multiple things during the course of your
36:55training.
36:56Well, sir, I can explain.
36:57Yes, I've been briefed on your explanations, and I find them lacking.
37:02But of greater concern is the veracity of your cancer diagnosis.
37:06Will you submit to a blood draw to prove it?
37:10This is nuts for you to even imply that I would be lying about something so serious.
37:16Yes or no, Officer Ridley.
37:17And to be clear, refusal to submit to the blood draw will result in your immediate termination.
37:25As will blood work that shows no sign of cancer.
37:31I can't believe this is happening.
37:35I have rights.
37:36Please.
37:37I can't lose this.
37:39I love being a cop.
37:41I love working with all of you.
37:43I can be better.
37:45Yes or no, son.
37:53No, sir.
37:55I will not submit to the injustice of a blood draw, and I will be suing you and the department
38:01for medical discrimination.
38:03Officer Ridley, you have failed to complete your probationary duties, which include following all lawful orders.
38:12Hand over your badge and your duty belt.
38:16Officer Chen and I will escort you back to the station, where we'll take possession of every piece of city
38:20-issued equipment.
38:21We'll then take you off the property.
38:22If you come back without an appointment, you will be arrested.
38:31What a day.
38:32The good news is, your gear turned up at the pawn shop in Silver Lake, and we ID'd the guy
38:38who did it.
38:39That's my neighbor, Zeke.
38:40Have you ever sung a song about Zeke?
38:42Yeah, a few.
38:44I thought he liked them.
38:46I don't get it.
38:48You're the nicest guy until you've got a guitar in your hand.
38:51Then you're a total chaos agent.
38:54I sing about what I see.
38:55It's not my fault people take themselves so seriously.
39:00You're going to break up with me?
39:01No, I like you, and I don't want to be that girl who tries to change you, but if you
39:08could just be a little more self-aware on the impact your music can have, that would be good.
39:14I can do that.
39:15Hey, heard about what happened.
39:19Glad to see you're okay.
39:21And listen, it's been brought to my attention that you might not be a big fan of my music.
39:25Yeah, um, that was true, but if today has taught me anything, it's that there is enough darkness in the
39:33world, and I can stand to lighten up a little.
39:36That's awesome, because I came up with a new song about you while I was in the ER, and I'm
39:41totally going to wait to play it for you.
39:44Good idea.
39:45Yeah, I'll walk you out.
39:52Patience, John.
39:54Patience.
39:58How'd it go today?
39:59Uh, we got through.
40:01Some days that's all you can hope for.
40:03I'll go check on him.
40:04You take a little me time.
40:10And who else is gonna break me down?
40:17And who else is gonna take for me now?
40:23I'm gonna let her hold me down, down, down, yeah.
40:31I'm gonna let her hold me down, down, down, yeah.
40:35I'm gonna let her hold me down, down, down, yeah.
40:42I'm gonna let her hold me down, down, down.
41:04Good boy. Good boy.
41:08Here we go.
41:11How did you do that?
41:12You know, animals love me.
41:14Should have known you'd have been the better choice for the job.
41:16Help!
41:18No, no.
41:19This is what's called a teachable moment.
41:24Let's go.
41:26Selena!
41:34Hey!
41:34Hey, I thought you were coming home right after you did the paperwork.
41:38I was, but then I remembered how much I love you
41:42and that I have not given you a present in far too long.
41:46Oh, I love presents.
41:47And you, but presents more.
41:52Oh, this is beautiful.
41:55Wait, how did you know I was looking for a new watch?
41:56I am your husband, I know all.
42:00I'm going to take a shower.
42:01You want to join me?
42:02Boy, do I.
42:03Wait, I'll do it again.
42:05Nope.
42:10No.
42:13No.
42:15No.
42:21No.
42:23No.
42:25No.
42:53Damn it.
42:55Damn it.
