00:00You didn't nap, did you?
00:10I didn't have time.
00:11I've got to find a new place to live.
00:13No excuse, boot.
00:14Napping is the key to midnight shift.
00:16No shorter than 20 minutes, no longer than 40.
00:19But hey, if you're comfortable ignoring my institutional wisdom...
00:22I'm getting evicted.
00:23Whose fault is that?
00:24Not mine.
00:25You're turning my building into condos.
00:27That's what happens when you gentrify a working-class neighborhood.
00:41What the hell is that?
00:42What?
00:44That.
00:51There was a guy standing there with a mask on.
00:53He was like seven feet tall.
00:58I saw him.
00:59He was right there.
01:00Boot, if you'd make me get out of this car for a hallucination...
01:24He was right here.
01:28Make-believe time is over.
01:43Stop!
01:44Police!
02:00Step out.
02:18Step out!
02:24Hands where I can see them.
02:28Take your mask off slowly.
02:30Slowly.
02:41Welcome to Midnight Optics, Jen.
02:51No.
02:52No.
03:03Hey.
03:04Happy to be back on days.
03:06God yes.
03:07I don't know if you heard, but it was great.
03:11Tim Hedgewitt's made.
03:12Of course he did.
03:13Well, you know, just wait until it's your turn, Officer In Bed By Ten.
03:17What can I say?
03:18I'm a morning person.
03:20Good morning.
03:21You're here bright and early.
03:22If you're not early, you're late.
03:24That's a stupid sign.
03:25What's your problem?
03:26Asking.
03:27I wore my name too.
03:28It's not the t-shirt, although it is annoying.
03:30I can't find a place to live.
03:32You could always move back home.
03:33No, I really can't.
03:35Or you can bunk up with Nolan.
03:36He lives in a mansion.
03:37Hey, it's not a mansion.
03:38It's a guest house of a mansion.
03:40But you're welcome to crash on the couch if you need to.
03:43Yeah, thanks.
03:44But I am determined to find a nice, clean place.
03:47But I am determined to find a nice, clean, affordable place to live, even if it kills me.
03:53It's not a mansion.
04:02Oh, no, Officer Nolan.
04:04You will be leading roll call this morning.
04:08Sir?
04:09I didn't start again up there.
04:18Good.
04:21What now?
04:22The clipboard.
04:24Uh, memo to all divisions from the chief of police.
04:28Complaints about police officer entitlement have risen sharply during the last few months.
04:33Sir?
04:34Do you know what that means?
04:36Police officer entitlement.
04:37I assume it has to do with unauthorized perks, free food, things of that nature.
04:42And what is LAPD's policy on gratuities?
04:48No officer shall receive any gratuity, gift, favor, or promise thereof as it may result in or be perceived as payment in exchange for influence, bias, or direction of an investigation or enforcement of punishable offenses.
05:03Nicely done.
05:06Chen West, will you please join Officer Nolan up front?
05:10Have your training officers discuss this policy with you.
05:14Yes, sir.
05:15And what was your takeaway?
05:16Sir, if I may?
05:18Oh, sounds like a little CYA.
05:20No, sir.
05:21Food and I walk the straight and narrow.
05:23But business is like having cops around.
05:25A half-priced meal every once in a while is just community relations.
05:28Doesn't mean we show them favoritism.
05:30You agree with this, Officer Bishop?
05:32I'm not saying I've never accepted a job.
05:34Doesn't mean we show them favoritism.
05:35You agree with this, Officer Bishop?
05:37I'm not saying I've never accepted a free cup of coffee.
05:40But it's usually the exception, not the norm.
05:43What about you, Officer Nolan?
05:45I got into this job to help people, not to help myself to free stuff.
05:50Cute line. Just a bunch of bull, bud.
05:53It's not.
05:54Really? Do you pay fair market value for that beach house you live in?
05:58No, sir, but I act as caretaker for the main house when Ben is away, so technically I'm exchanging services for my rent.
06:04And what happens when that exchange isn't enough and your buddy gets a ticket off?
06:10Or worse.
06:11Then he'll have to pay for his actions.
06:12Okay.
06:14Favors are a slippery slope, people. And so are freebies.
06:17Look, I like to keep it real in here.
06:21There is the letter of the law and there is the spirit.
06:24It is your jobs to know the difference.
06:26But make no mistake, as police officers, you have power.
06:31Usually we like to focus on the kind that you holster on your side.
06:35But the power that lives within your badge can be equally as dangerous.
06:41That's it.
06:42Alright guys, be safe out there.
06:47Seven Adam 19, break in at Westside Fertility Clinic.
06:50You haven't received a single freebie since I've been with you, so why did you defend that degree?
06:55Because hard rules like that are stupid.
06:57What we do doesn't exist in a vacuum. Circumstances dictate actions, not the other way around.
07:03Police? Anyone here?
07:06Yes. We had a break in.
07:09I can see that. There's been a rash of burglaries in the neighborhood recently.
07:12Mostly addicts looking for stuff to sell.
07:15This wasn't an addict. They took embryos.
07:18That's a new one on me.
07:19Do I write this up as a burglary or an abduction?
07:22You want to put out 50 embryos?
07:24It's a burglary.
07:25Officer, there's a crucial time element here.
07:28Without proper temperature control, those embryos will be compromised.
07:32Any idea who took them?
07:33They're part of an ugly custody dispute.
07:36A lesbian couple.
07:37The eggs we harvested were from only one of the women, Marilyn Tinney.
07:40Her ex is suing for custody rights even though she doesn't have a biological connection.
07:45Okay, well we're going to need names and addresses for both women.
07:47Of course.
07:48Of course. But you should know, when I called Marilyn to tell her, she got very upset.
07:54Said she was going to kill her.
08:00License and registration, please.
08:01Look, I don't have time for this.
08:02Look, no one does, but you blew through that stop sign.
08:04Because Prince Charles is going to die.
08:07Excuse me?
08:08My dog. He's a King Charles Cavalier and he just ate a whole bag of macadamia nuts.
08:12Look, I'm sorry, but I still have to write you up.
08:14You're kidding. I'm racing him to the vets.
08:16They have to pump his stomach. Those nuts are toxic for dogs.
08:18Look, I understand, but this will only take a minute.
08:20License and registration, please.
08:26If he dies.
08:31Hope your dog's okay. Have a nice day.
08:34Go to hell.
08:40Do you think a ticket was the best resolution, Officer West?
08:43You heard Sergeant Gray this morning. We have to remain vigilant.
08:46If we let everyone who's in a rush off the hook, the city would be undrivable.
08:50Her dog is dying. A warning would have been sufficient.
08:52Okay, a dog that size would have to eat a pound of nuts to induce ataxia.
08:56She drove through the stop sign into school zone. It's a pretty serious infraction.
08:59We blow stop signs all the time. And park on lawns and drive on the wrong side of the road.
09:03Okay, that's different. We're cops. We only do it when necessary.
09:06Exactly. Discretion is an important part of this job.
09:08Even if the outcome is different than following the letter of the law.
09:11With all due respect, I was raised differently. The law is the law.
09:17Those are mine!
09:18They are not yours! They're mine!
09:20Give them to me!
09:21Not right now!
09:22Don't you dare hit me again.
09:23I said give them to me!
09:25LAPD, we're coming in.
09:27They're mine. They are not.
09:29Hey, put down the weapon.
09:30Those are my embryos. She stole them from the clinic.
09:32No, they are your eggs. And we had them fertilized by a sperm donor together. You remember?
09:37Yeah, and the judge ruled that I get to use them. Do you remember that?
09:40Yes!
09:41They're gone!
09:42Officer Chet, secure her.
09:45Give me the tubes.
09:47No.
09:48Please.
09:50Those...
09:51Those are my last chance to carry my own baby.
09:55Please.
09:57Don't take that from me.
10:00Please.
10:02We're supposed to have kids together.
10:06I saw you through your whole cancer treatment.
10:10And then you dump me for a yoga instructor?
10:12Wait, wait, wait. Listen to me.
10:15You're angry. You have every right to be.
10:19But doing this, it won't put your marriage back together.
10:23Okay? Nothing will.
10:27But you will come to hate yourself if you go through with this, so put the tubes back in that container.
10:40Okay?
10:49You think I'm compromised living at Ben's house?
10:51Probably. You asked.
10:54Yeah, but I meant what I said to Sergeant Gray. If he asked me for a favor, I'd say no.
10:58Why even put yourself in that position? If it were me, I'd have to pay my own way. Like a grown-up.
11:04Driver okay?
11:05He's been stabbed. Left side. Looks like a pedestal that hit his head in the crash.
11:09ID?
11:10Not that I can find.
11:11Control, I need you to run the following plates. Five, Frank, Victor, Alpha, 2-7.
11:15Car registered to Matthew Rodriguez, date of birth 7-7-1990.
11:20Copy that. Send another unit to our location for an accident report.
11:23It appears Mr. Rodriguez has been the victim of an assault. We're accompanying RA to the hospital. We'll follow you.
11:28Got it.
11:30That guy didn't get stabbed driving alone, so either it happened before he got in the car, or his attacker bolted after the accident.
11:38I've got to admit, I thought there'd be more mysteries on this job.
11:41Well, be happy there aren't. The unknown is a pain in the butt.
11:44Sure, but still, every once in a while you want, I'll puzzle this off.
11:527-Adam-15, suspect, victim, on foot, fourth, Cesar Chavez, southbound.
11:58Yes!
12:05Okay, now I really want to know what happened.
12:14So our vehicle is registered to Matthew Rodriguez, but our stabbing victim is not Matthew Rodriguez.
12:21Looks like Mr. Rodriguez has a rap sheet with gang orders. You know what those are?
12:25It means a judge ordered him not to associate with gang members, wear their colors, or go to their neighborhood.
12:29Odds are a guy like that is connected to our John Doe stabbing.
12:32I thought officers were supposed to avoid making assumptions.
12:35There's a big difference between making an assumption and a likely scenario.
12:38Which is? Oh, let me guess, when it comes from you, it's a likely scenario.
12:42There's hope for you yet, Officer Nolan.
12:44Now, let's pay Mr. Rodriguez a visit and see if he can shine some light on our stabbing victim.
12:507-N-0-7, respond to a false imprisonment call, 9-7-4 Ocampo Street.
12:54Hi, are you the manager?
12:56Yes, hi.
12:57Sir, we received a call that one of your customers is being held against their will.
13:00He's not a customer, he's a scam artist.
13:02Excuse me?
13:03This guy sets up first dates with women, runs up the bill, and then sneaks out the back door.
13:08He's been doing it at restaurants all over the neighborhood.
13:10He tried to do it to that poor woman over there, but one of our kitchen staff caught him and locked his ass in the walk-in fridge.
13:16Give us a minute.
13:21Seems like you're having a pretty bad day.
13:24Tinder is like the clearance rack at an outlet store.
13:27Dating apps are all bad.
13:28He ordered a $500 bottle of wine for lunch, and then the charcuterie board, and the cheese plate, and that steak au poivre.
13:37The bill is $680.
13:41I don't know how I'm going to cover my rent this month.
13:43Did you already order dessert?
13:45No.
13:47Go ahead and get something. Maybe two things.
13:50Why?
13:52Look, I know what you're doing.
13:54She bumps up the bill to $700, we can charge her date with a felony.
13:57Very good, Officer West.
13:58It's not our job to put our thumb on the scale and change the outcome here.
14:01Are you lecturing me on police work, boo?
14:03No, but it's still-
14:05But nothing.
14:06Go hook up our dine-in at Dasher.
14:12Definitely get the creme brulee.
14:15The best creme brulee in the city.
14:18Seriously? You're totally fine with this?
14:21Susan isn't stuck paying the bill since the owners can write it off as theft.
14:24The only person paying for the crime is this jerk who committed it.
14:27That's the spirit of the law.
14:29Now, take a bite.
14:31No, I don't want it.
14:32Come on, get off your high horse and try a little.
14:34No, I think it's-
14:36Just a little bite.
14:40Wow.
14:41Mm-hmm, told ya.
14:44Matthew Rodriguez, police, open up!
14:46Nolan.
14:49Ready?
14:58Well, I guess now we know who stamped our John Doe.
15:00You sound disappointed.
15:01No, I just thought it might be a little less cut and dry.
15:05I just thought it might be a little less cut and dry.
15:08Well, believe me, cut and dry is a lot less paperwork.
15:10Seven out of fifteen need a homicide unit at 4495 Barrington.
15:14Our John Doe is now a murder suspect.
15:22You're not done yet?
15:24At this stage in training, you should have knocked that out in two minutes.
15:26What's the problem?
15:28I'm not sure how to write it.
15:30It's a simple grand theft report.
15:32It's not simple.
15:33Earl, we made that case a felony.
15:35Something that should have been a citation.
15:37We turned it into a weekend in jail.
15:39And you want me to lie on the report?
15:42I seem to remember writing a report about you.
15:46Second day on the job.
15:48Meant the truth about your cowardice in the line of fire.
15:52Ringing a bell?
15:53Yeah.
15:55And I'm grateful you know that, but I'm not-
15:57But what, Boot?
15:59More than any other rookie, you should know the difference between the spirit and the letter.
16:03Unless you don't think it applies to you.
16:06Are you the exception, Officer West?
16:08No, ma'am.
16:09Yeah, here you are, acting holier than thou.
16:12Tell me something.
16:13Do you carry a push knife?
16:16One of those fight for your life, last resort, do or die kind of knives?
16:19You know that I do. I mean, my dad gave it to me.
16:23Oh, right.
16:25Your father, who well but walks on water.
16:27Only this knife is illegal.
16:30Yeah, right. I mean, half the department carry these.
16:32Penal code section 12020. The very bottom.
16:36Technically, it's a dagger.
16:38Look it up if you don't believe me.
16:42Look, if it's true, then I just won't carry one anymore.
16:46That is the wrong lesson to learn here.
16:49You're in for a hard fall if you can't see the difference between righteous and rigid.
16:53And if that wasn't the first thing your father taught you, he failed you.
16:59Now fill out the damn report. We gotta get back out there.
17:05It doesn't seem right to lock up Marilyn, too. She was only trying to protect her embryos.
17:09Nothing we can do. She committed assault.
17:11Domestic violence laws are strict for a reason.
17:14What happened to circumstances dictate actions?
17:16Trust me, this is one rule I'm all for.
17:18Cemeteries are filled with women who'd still be alive if cops had been forced to hook up their spouses the second he or she laid hands.
17:24That is a very enlightened attitude.
17:27You seem surprised.
17:28Sir, you surprise me every day.
17:30Uh-huh. Go gas up the shop.
17:34Hey, how's it going?
17:36Hey. It's been an interesting morning. How about you?
17:38Same. Found a dead body at the Langston, a horseshoe.
17:41How was it?
17:42Gruesome. Guy took a bullet right to his...
17:44Oh, wait. Not the body. The apartment.
17:46Oh, uh, it was nice. Surprisingly upscale for a gang member. Are you asking for you?
17:52Well, the building needs to disclose if someone was killed in the apartment, so it might mean a break in rent.
17:57Yeah, just a bit of a questionable way to find a place to live, no?
18:01Yeah, well, traditional clearly isn't working out, so...
18:04Let's go, Boo. Captain wants to see us.
18:09That should hold you until you get to the hospital.
18:12Captain.
18:13What's going on?
18:14That's our murder suspect.
18:15He's not a suspect, Officer Nolan. He's an undercover narcotics detective.
18:18Robert Ortiz. I'm sorry about the ambulance thing.
18:27I've been undercover in Chalaoma for almost a year.
18:30Working my way closer to the offshoot in Boyle Heights called El Campo Loco.
18:33They control the cash flow and then bundle the drug money and ship it back to Mexico.
18:37How much money are we talking?
18:38Right now, at least $100,000.
18:41The word is they're going to ship it tonight.
18:43I was about to report it when my cover was blown by Matthew Rodriguez, who tried to kill me, so I shot him in self-defense.
18:49You know the rest.
18:51Officer Ortiz has bravely volunteered to go back in to protect his cover and set up our tactical operation.
18:56Last time I was at the house, there was four alcoholics guarding the money.
19:00Heavy hitters.
19:01We're going to gear up heavy, position ourselves down the street,
19:04being ready to initiate a full-blown raid on the house once Ortiz is out.
19:08Being ready to initiate a full-blown raid on the house once Ortiz gives us a signal.
19:12Rookies, this is your first high-level tactical operation.
19:16Let's be prepared.
19:18Did you read the search warrant?
19:20Yes, ma'am. 8531 Winchester Boulevard.
19:22Residence is an 1800s Victorian with five bedrooms and two bathrooms and a guest house.
19:26Front door?
19:27Solid oak with a copper handle on the right side.
19:31You know the specs of this equipment, Officer Chen?
19:33It's a Blackhawk Dynamic Entry Special Operand.
19:38How much does it weigh?
19:3960 pounds, sir.
19:40Hold it tight. You'll be the breacher.
19:42You'll buy a round for every swing it takes to knock that door down.
19:45Walk me through a tactical gear check.
19:47Stock zip ties in the loops of the tack vest.
19:50And then?
19:51Secure any loose gear. Tack vest, helmet, etc.
19:54Finally, secure firearm to a thyroid.
19:56Very good. Any questions?
19:59What if I have to pee?
20:02I'll hold it. I'm good.
20:08All units, we're 30 seconds out. Get ready. Be safe.
20:17Officer West, you do the 844. Stand by to initiate.
20:24Ortiz is in.
20:25Where the hell you been?
20:26Rodriguez was talking to the cops. He tried to stick me when I called him out.
20:29So I put a bullet in his head.
20:31We gotta get out of here.
20:32You could've given us a place to hide.
20:33How the hell are we gonna do that?
20:34We got a million in cash money.
20:36Back it out. It's too hot to stay here.
20:38That's the signal. Initiate.
20:39Ready.
21:02Police! Open the door! We have a search warrant!
21:06Cover right!
21:08Open door on the right!
21:11Open door!
21:13Show me your hands!
21:17Step back or I'll shoot! Get down on your knees now!
21:20Clear!
21:21You good?
21:22Yeah.
21:23Hands up! Fingers behind your head! Do it now! Back up!
21:28Hands up!
21:29Hands up!
21:34You okay?
21:35Yeah. Hurt me.
21:36Well, that hurts at the hospital on the way out.
21:39Clear! Coming out!
21:44What?
21:46Special assignment. Follow me.
21:52Sorry. Here's what happens now.
21:55The money counters and the videographer are on their way.
21:58In the meantime, you three get to watch the money.
22:01Two people with it at all times. No selfies.
22:05Enjoy.
22:12Where does all this money go?
22:14Cash seized during drug raids goes back to narcotics, where it's used again for undercover ops.
22:19That's more money than I've ever seen in one place.
22:22Can you imagine?
22:25I'd buy a car. No, a helicopter.
22:29And learn to fly it so I could avoid all the traffic.
22:32Yeah, that first big purchase is always tricky, right?
22:35The barber in Foxburg? He won the lottery.
22:38Bought a big, fancy boat. Ran it aground in Freeport.
22:41Coked the gills. I don't think a boat is a good idea.
22:44What about you? What'd you spend it on?
22:46I'm not playing that game. It's drug money.
22:49We're just talking. A million dollars lands on your doorstep.
22:53What do you do? Go. And don't say you'd set aside 30% for taxes.
22:58A new car, I guess.
23:01Or maybe a trip. Been wanting to do a little traveling.
23:04Let me guess. You'd visit police departments all around the world.
23:08Learn their techniques?
23:10No.
23:12I'd pay all of Henry's tuition. With the money.
23:15Just so he didn't have those student loans hanging over his head.
23:18Yeah, they're no fun. I'll be paying mine off until I'm 60.
23:23With this money, you could pay them all off and still rent an amazing place by the ocean.
23:28Meanwhile, I couldn't afford to buy the room in the house I'm living in.
23:32Bet it would have got you something pretty nice back in Foxburg, though.
23:35Biggest house in town, and then some.
23:38Hmm. Biggest house in town, and then some.
23:41Still can't get used to the cost of living in Los Angeles.
23:44It's like you have to add an extra zero to everything.
23:46You know, I never really thought about money growing up. We always just had enough, you know?
23:50Yeah. That's what I thought.
23:53Until my parents went bankrupt when I was nine.
23:56It took a couple of really bad years before we got back up on our feet.
24:00I've been there.
24:02There have been days where I would have killed to be sitting across from this much money.
24:07There for the taking.
24:08Hey, don't even joke about that.
24:10I've heard too many stories from my dad about cops who started filling their pockets.
24:14Convincing themselves that it was a victimless crime.
24:16That they were entitled to a little extra compensation for their troubles.
24:19Okay, well, relax. It's not us.
24:22Yeah, that's what they thought at first too.
24:24But then you take a bite of the creme brulee and the next thing you know you're doing three to five for felony theft.
24:29I'm sorry, creme brulee?
24:31Never mind.
24:33Man.
24:34What?
24:35I just, I still have to pee. With all this...
24:39I'll be right back.
24:44All done?
24:45Just finished. Bad guy's on the way to jail, Ortiz on his way to the hospital, so we're headed out.
24:49You're not waiting for us?
24:50Nope. But we're leaving a shot behind.
24:52Remember, shift starts tomorrow at noon. But you want to get in early to do tonight's paperwork.
24:56Copy that. Are the money counters going to get here soon?
24:59I'd get comfortable if I were you.
25:01Those guys work at their own pace.
25:04Oh, where's the...
25:13I'd still do the job.
25:16Even if I came in on money?
25:18I'd still have a shot.
25:21You know, I would too.
25:24You've known what you've wanted to do since birth, but I just figured out there's no way I would bail now.
25:31What about you?
25:34Having money makes things easier, not better.
25:37That's not an answer.
25:39Would you quit the job?
25:41And pass up on being hazed on a daily basis by training officers ten years my junior? Come on.
25:48All right.
25:50Officers Grazer and Williams arriving on the scene, 117 AM. We're leaving three uniformed officers.
25:55What are your names?
25:56Nolan, Chen, West.
25:58Anyone else come in or out?
25:59No, ma'am.
26:00Great.
26:02Withdraw. We got it from here.
26:08You coming?
26:10No.
26:11I'm not coming.
26:14You coming?
26:16We might never see this much money again.
26:19If there's ever another raid and they need someone to sit and wait until the wee hours, I have a feeling it'll be us.
26:31Nolan, wake up!
26:33Nolan!
26:35Nolan!
26:44Did I oversleep? Shift starts at noon.
26:46Captain called me to bring you in early.
26:47Why?
26:48She didn't say.
26:49That sounds bad.
26:50It's not good.
26:51Do I have time to-
26:52Get dressed.
26:57What's going on?
26:58They told us to gather our boots, same as you.
27:01We have a situation.
27:03Money counters are telling us that we're missing $250,000.
27:06And you three were the only ones left alone with the money.
27:11Well, the money counters must have made a mistake.
27:13There's video of them entering the garage and relieving you.
27:16And then they counted the money.
27:18And got $750,000 and not a million.
27:20Let me remind you, an officer was recently convicted of third-degree official misconduct for taking $70 from a crime scene.
27:26He served two years behind bars.
27:28What do you think would happen to a cop who steals a quarter million dollars?
27:30But we didn't take it.
27:32Maybe we should have.
27:34I don't know.
27:36What do you think would happen to a cop who steals a quarter million dollars?
27:38But we didn't take it.
27:40Maybe the assumption was wrong.
27:42Maybe it was always $750,000.
27:43That's not what the intel shows.
27:45Guys on the bar are saying it's a million.
27:47Okay, well, we can all vouch for each other.
27:49Not good enough.
27:50The only thing that will clear you is passing the polygraph.
27:53No, I can't, by law, make you take one.
27:55It would have to be strictly voluntary.
27:57What if we decline?
27:58There's grounds for suspension pending an investigation.
28:00And it possibly could lead to your termination.
28:03Well, that's not much of a choice, but...
28:08Yeah, we'll do it.
28:09Okay.
28:10Let's go.
28:11What, now?
28:12Now.
28:21You think one of them really could have done it?
28:23Not by themselves.
28:24Nolan came back into the house to use the bathroom.
28:26One of the other two could have hidden some of the money then.
28:29Came back, picked it up later.
28:31There's no way Wes participated.
28:32That kid is squeaky clean.
28:34If it was Chen, she wouldn't get caught like this.
28:36Sounds like a compliment.
28:37I'm just saying, she's smarter than that.
28:39It doesn't matter if they did it or not.
28:41If they don't walk out of there with a flawless polygraph, they're done.
28:49What am I seeing?
28:50The pressure pad.
28:51That registers if you attempt to try to cheat the polygraph by clenching your buttocks.
28:57Well, that can't be a real thing.
28:59You just clenched.
29:00Really?
29:02What am I doing now?
29:05Officer Wes, you seem uncomfortable.
29:08Is there something you'd like to get off your chest before we begin?
29:11Yes.
29:13I, um, I had a bite of creme brulee, okay?
29:16And yes, it was delicious.
29:18Like, I know it was wrong, but now that taste is in my mouth, that sweet flavor of corruption.
29:24It's just...
29:25But I want to let you guys know that I've learned my lesson, and it will never happen again.
29:31Okay, let's begin with a few control questions.
29:34Answer with a simple yes or no.
29:36Is your name Jonathan Nolan?
29:38Yes.
29:39Do you live at 7214 and a half Alvarado Street, apartment F?
29:43For the moment.
29:44A simple yes or no, officer.
29:46Sorry.
29:47Um, yes.
29:48Are your eyes brown?
29:49Um, well, my mom always says they're more of a brownish brown.
29:53My mom always says they're more of a dark chestnut, but...
29:59Brownish line.
30:00Did you witness anyone taking money?
30:02No.
30:03Were you ever alone with the money?
30:04Yes, sir.
30:05No. No, sir. No.
30:08Look, I'm sorry. These wires make me really nervous. I can't...
30:14Have you ever lied to protect another officer?
30:16No.
30:19Let's try that again.
30:21Have you ever lied to protect a fellow officer?
30:26Yes.
30:27Regarding the missing money?
30:29No, ma'am.
30:33Why didn't you tell them about creme brulee?
30:35I don't know. It came up naturally.
30:36They were yes or no questions. How does creme brulee come up naturally?
30:40Boots.
30:41You've all passed your polygraphs.
30:43But this is far from over.
30:45Go home.
30:46Detectives will contact you soon about follow-up and abuse.
30:49You've got to find out what happened to that money before you hit the street again.
30:51Yes, ma'am. Thank you.
30:54Hey, you know what I'd like to do after I've been suspected of a felony?
30:58A drink?
30:59Damn straight. I've got a stocked fridge. Anyone want to join?
31:01I'm down. Lucy?
31:02Yeah, it's early lunch and I should make use of the time off and go apartment hunting.
31:06You okay?
31:08Why would I be?
31:14Hey.
31:16We all got cleared.
31:17The cops. Were we supposed to be impressing our criminals?
31:20No, sir.
31:21Part of the job description, really. And you won't be cleared until the money's found.
31:25But we'll do our best to try and find it.
31:30Natalia's right. They don't catch who stole that money, cops, or they think we did it.
31:35No matter what their polygraph said, we'll never be trusted again.
31:38No, you're not wrong.
31:40So what do we do?
31:43Hey, Lucy. You're on with me and Jackson.
31:45I know. If they don't find the money, we're screwed.
31:47We were just talking about that. I keep going over it in my mind.
31:51The only thing I can think of is that money was gone long before we ever got to the garage.
31:57What the hell is this guy doing?
31:58Wait, what?
31:59This black SUV, he's riding my ass.
32:05He just hit me. It looks like he's trying to run me off the road.
32:08Where are you?
32:09Driving south on Griffith Park Drive. I just passed Mineral Wells Trail.
32:16Lucy?
32:38Bishop, Lucy's in trouble. Someone tried to drive her off the road. Griffith Park Drive.
32:42Jackson and I are on our way there now.
32:53Okay, two left.
33:13Clear.
33:15Phone's in the car.
33:16Officer needs help. Requesting backup and air shift.
33:19Van's clear.
33:20Griffith Park Drive. Be advised, plainclothes officers in pursuit, heading northwest into the woods.
33:24Seven out of nineteen. We're five minutes out. Hold until we get there.
33:43Which way?
33:44I don't know.
33:47You seeing that?
33:48Yeah.
33:53That way.
33:54You sure?
33:55No.
34:13Hey.
34:21Drop the gun.
34:28What do you want?
34:29The money you stole.
34:33You're with Laoma?
34:35And you're with the LAPD. Officer Lucy Chen.
34:38Lives at 7214 and a half Alvarado Street. Apartment F.
34:42How do you know all that?
34:43Public records. Addresses. Police reports. Damn near everything's on the net.
34:48So I already know that you were guarding our money. And 250 G's went missing.
34:53And I know you're the cop that took it.
34:55I... I didn't steal anything.
34:57Please. We've seen your place. Ran your credit. We need a serious cash infusion.
35:04So? Where's our money?
35:07I already told you. I don't have it.
35:10Tough girl, huh? Well, everybody's tough at first. Until they're not.
35:15Andres. Cut her up a little.
35:27This isn't about the money, chica. A quarter million is a rounding error on our gas budget.
35:32This is about sending a message. You can't steal from us.
35:38Even if you carry a badge.
35:40I saw you.
35:41What?
35:42Outside the house right before we raided it.
35:44You were wearing those boots and carrying that duffel bag with the red stripe.
35:48Somebody tipped you off about the raid.
35:51You took the money. You got in before we hit the place. You thought no one would notice.
36:03Shots fired northwest from our previous.
36:12You messed it all up.
36:21Hey!
36:23Police! Don't move!
36:25Move!
36:31Do not move! Stay on the ground!
36:36You got this?
36:37I'm going after Lucy.
36:51Nice.
36:52Do you have cuffs?
36:53Last pair.
36:56What took you so long?
37:03Paramex is taking our other suspects to Shaw Memorial. Homicides work in the Alco and this one killed.
37:08And the missing $250,000?
37:09Einstein had it stacked on his coffee table. Wes and Lopez are bringing it in now.
37:13All right, good work.
37:16And how are you doing?
37:17Oh, good. Thank you. I think I might have twisted my ankle.
37:20I met Officer Chin, Nolan.
37:23That was good work out there.
37:24Thank you, sir. I'm just relieved that we found the missing money.
37:27So I take it we're off the hook about the cash?
37:30You are. But to be clear, there's no point to anyone actually believing that three rookies knew how to smuggle quarter million cash out of a crime scene.
37:39But good work.
37:47Hey.
37:48Hey.
37:50Look, in case I haven't said this enough, I've been training to be a cop my whole life.
37:56I walked in here thinking I knew everything about everything and I can only imagine how annoying that's been.
38:02I wouldn't call it annoying. I'd call it, yeah, no, annoying's about right.
38:07Well, I'm sorry. You're my T.O., not my dad.
38:12I should let you teach me how to be a cop, even if some of your methods contradict the things that he showed me.
38:18Look, I just hope that you'll understand if I need to take a moment to adjust.
38:22I guess I can give you that.
38:26And thanks for not giving up on me. I wouldn't be here without you and I'll never forget that again.
38:41It's good time?
38:42Of course. Come in, Captain.
38:43Let's see how you were doing.
38:46All you can eat pudding. The only highlight of being in a hospital.
38:51You want one?
38:52No, no, no. You enjoy.
38:55Hey, I thought you'd like to know. We recovered the missing quarter million.
39:01Wow. That's really good news.
39:04Turns out it was gone before we even showed up.
39:06Gang member Franco DeSantis took it just before our raid.
39:10He pulled his cell records.
39:12Turns out there was an incoming call just before he grabbed the cash and walked it out the door.
39:16Do you know where that call came from?
39:20I have no idea.
39:22The station.
39:28Did you think I made it?
39:31Oh, I know you did. You see, Franco admitted as much.
39:35Don't.
39:38You should enjoy your pudding.
39:40The stuff they give you in prison, not nearly as good.
39:51Hey, come in, come in, come in.
39:55So, this is my new place. It's great, right?
40:00Oh, uh, there's a giant blood stain on the wall.
40:03Which is how I'm getting 25% off for the first year.
40:07Are you sure that's not because you're a cop?
40:09Yeah. He didn't even know before he cut me the break.
40:12Landlord was super eager to get it all done.
40:14Especially because I said I would take it as is.
40:17As is?
40:19You mean-
40:20Oh, yeah, which is why you're here.
40:24You see, friends help friends clean up crime scenes.
40:30We'll get poke after.
40:33Okay.
40:37So, what should we drink to?
40:40To paying your own way.
40:42That's strangely specific.
40:44Listen, I really appreciate everything you've done for me.
40:47You really helped me get back on my feet.
40:49But I'm back on them now.
40:51And I can't just keep living here for free.
40:55I don't need you to pay rent.
40:56I need you to pay rent.
40:57So, what would you list this place for?
40:59Oh, I don't know.
41:0112, maybe 11.
41:04How about we just call it 10,000 even?
41:06A month?
41:07I can't afford that.
41:09I'll tell you what.
41:11Why don't you pay what you can afford.
41:13We'll call it even.
41:15Deal.
41:20And I have to tell you, oh my God, that's good.
41:23I'm not a cop.
41:24And I have to tell you, oh my God, that's good.
41:28But I have to be clear.
41:30As a cop, I can't do you any favors.
41:33I can't fix a ticket for you.
41:35I can't help you out of any legal jeopardy.
41:38I just hope you understand.
41:41Totally.
41:42And you know what?
41:43I would never come to you for anything like that.
41:46I'm super tight with the district attorney.
41:48That's not better.
41:49So, this rent that you're going to be paying, is it retroactive from when you moved in?
41:56Um, yes.
41:58That's great.
42:19Damn it.
