00:00You're not listening. I can destroy your life with the click of a button. These pictures
00:06will go to every one of your contacts. Please, I don't have that kind of money.
00:115,000 in Bitcoin reveals everything. LAPD. I'll get right back to you.
00:20Afternoon. Can I get your name? Dennis Kern. Why? What's going on?
00:28We got a report from your neighbor. Someone in this apartment is stealing the Wi-Fi.
00:31Police! Help! Can you hear me? What was that? Nothing.
00:35Help! Step back, Dennis. Hello? Over here, on the computer.
00:44Oh. Hello, who are you? Todd Asher. I'm that little bastard's P.E. teacher.
00:49He's blackmailing me with pictures. He hacked from my computer.
00:51Oh, well, that was stupid, Dennis, and very illegal. Gonna have to call your parents.
00:56Which one do you think will be less piss? Um, my dad.
00:59Great. What's your mom's number? Sir, I'm gonna need your address so we can
01:03send a unit to your house to take a statement. Sure, but I have to get those photos back.
01:07Please. If they get out... All right, how about a...
01:10Oh! Whoa, is that your...
01:13Hey, good morning. Good morning. I hope you're hungry.
01:27I'm making pecan pancakes, your favorite. Uh, they would be except for the whole
01:31I'm allergic to nuts thing. You are? Since when?
01:34Uh, that would be since the day you birthed me. And your flight back to Pennsylvania
01:38is in three hours. Are you packed yet? Oh, I canceled my ticket.
01:42Mom, we agreed you'd only stay there one night. No, you agreed.
01:46I'll get that. Mother. Turn them before they burn.
01:49Mom, this is not entirely optimal for me. You know I have to be hyper-focused
01:53on work right now. Come on. Come on. Put them right there in the corner.
01:56What's in the boxes? Oh, I thought since you're hyper-focused on work
02:00that I'd make use of my time. I came across this great deal
02:04from a wholesaler of CBD oil. Professor Hempstein's organic CBD oil?
02:09Relax. Marijuana is legal in California. As a cop, you should know that.
02:13I do. So this is what you spent your money on when you sold the engagement ring?
02:17No. I mean, not all of it. And what, do you plan on staying here
02:22until you sell it all? Don't you think you should have asked me first, Mom?
02:26I told you to flip the pancakes!
02:30Shoot your hands up! What are you doing?
02:33Hey! Get your hands off my car!
02:44I live up the street. I'm a cop. Relax. It's me.
02:48Sarge, good morning. I saw the shop creeping up. I get it.
02:52My dad's a cop. I'm a cop. I shouldn't panic at the sight.
02:55West, I've been a black man a lot longer than you have. I get it.
03:00Why are you here, sir? You were right.
03:03Benching Officer Stanton isn't enough. He's a disgrace to the badge. He has to go.
03:07But your hands are tied, right? Mine are, but yours aren't.
03:10So, son, what are you willing to risk to take Stanton off the job?
03:15Whatever it takes, sir.
03:17Good. So I've crossed paths with a hundred cops like Stanton.
03:21The kind that dip their toes over the line constantly, but nothing egregious, nothing flagrant, nothing actionable.
03:27He knows what he can get away with. Yep.
03:30So how do I get him? You're going to keep book.
03:33Chronicle every offense, big or small.
03:36If we're lucky, the accumulation of infractions will be enough to take his gun and his badge.
03:41Isn't this how Nolan and Harper got in trouble with Internal Affairs?
03:44They didn't have supervision. You got me. And for now, you're just keeping book.
03:48When we get enough, we go to IA. If we go before, we put your father in a bad position.
03:52Yes, sir. Thank you. I won't let you down.
03:56Now listen closely.
03:58Doug Stanton can know nothing about this. Act like his best friend.
04:02Don't give him any reason to suspect.
04:05Only Bradford and Chin aren't going to know about this.
04:07I'm going to assign you all to the same sector.
04:09So every time you and Stanton take a call, they will be automatically filled in.
04:13Okay, I can handle myself. Non-negotiable, West.
04:16If you're going after Stanton, you're going to have backup.
04:29Really? What?
04:32Our baby has weird taste. Only gets it from your side of the family.
04:35This is awful. Full of fat, preservatives, sugar. It's evil in a jar.
04:40Don't even get me started on the pickles. We have to watch what you eat.
04:43You don't have to watch anything.
04:45Hey, did you make an appointment to see my mom's OB-GYN yet?
04:47I'm not going to your mom's, Lady Doctor. I'm happy with mine.
04:50Just like I'm happy eating pickles Santa style.
04:52She's a renowned specialist. The best.
04:54I mean, don't you want the best for her baby?
04:56Wesley, I love you dearly, but you're so waspy sometimes.
04:59I get it. You're an only child.
05:01But my mom brought five kids into this world while working two jobs and eating whatever the hell she wanted.
05:06We have babies all the time. It's easy. Don't make it so hard.
05:08Angela, I just think that we...
05:09Stop micromanaging my pregnancy.
05:12Our pregnancy.
05:13Oh, really? Who wears the stretchy pants in this family?
05:18Exactly.
05:23You're driving today.
05:25I am?
05:26Until about 9 o'clock.
05:27What happens at 9 o'clock?
05:28Actually, it's what happens at 9 a.m. sharp that matters.
05:30Lila wants to take this summer class at the music academy.
05:33And spots are extremely limited, so if I miss the registration window, she can't get in.
05:37But what if we get a call? Wouldn't it be safer if your ex did that?
05:40You think that I can't handle enrolling my own daughter into a class?
05:44No, of course not.
05:45Because my baby wants classes at the music academy.
05:47I, I can get her classes at the music academy.
05:51Is this a repeat of an argument you had earlier with your ex-husband?
05:54No.
05:56Get into the shop.
05:58Let's go.
06:01Catch the game last night?
06:04Yeah, it was brutal.
06:06Can't believe they were able to come back on us.
06:08Yeah, I believed.
06:10That's why I won 200 bucks.
06:17Anything look out of place to you?
06:19Uh, I don't think...
06:21Dispatch, 7 Adam 7, show us how to pedestrianize.
06:24Copy that.
06:26Uh, I don't think...
06:28Dispatch, 7 Adam 7, show us how to pedestrian stop.
06:30Waring and Seward.
06:33Seward and Waring, let's go.
06:35Relax, it can't be too obvious.
06:37If Doug realizes we're shadowing him, Jack's screwed.
06:39We'll get close, wait to see if it escalates.
06:46Hey, bud. Live around here?
06:48No, sir. Just came from a friend's.
06:50Ah. Where are you off to now?
06:52Bus stop.
06:53Bus stop's that way.
06:54Got any ID?
06:55Sir.
06:58Dispatch, 7 Adam 7, clear for a party.
07:01Last of Gusta, first of Armand.
07:03DOB 7-26-1990.
07:05I'll be on your way in a second.
07:06Unless she comes back with bad news.
07:08You got any outstanding warrants?
07:10I've never been arrested, sir.
07:137 Adam 7, Gusta comes back clear and valid.
07:17There you go.
07:18Bus stop's that way, sir.
07:20Officers?
07:21Of course.
07:22He's the kind of citizen I like.
07:24Knows his place, respects authority.
07:27You know, we wouldn't have half the problems that we have
07:29if more of them behaved like that one.
07:387 Adam 7, code 4, show us clear.
07:42This so isn't fair to Jackson.
07:44I know. Having to ride next to a guy, hoping he doesn't cross the line.
07:47Can't imagine what that's like.
07:49I can.
07:51My first day as a rookie, I thought you were going to be my Doug.
07:55Excuse me?
07:56How am I anything like that guy?
07:58Do you remember our first day out?
08:00I was walking alongside the shop.
08:03Then those Spanish-speaking gardeners honked at us.
08:05You turned it into a TIM test.
08:07And when I didn't translate your less-than-PC words to them correctly,
08:11you took my head off.
08:12So what? I'm a bad cop now?
08:14No, not at all.
08:15But that was a bad stop.
08:17How do you think those men felt about that interaction with you?
08:19You think it was a positive experience?
08:21I'm not looking for five-star Yelp reviews.
08:23I've got a job to do.
08:24Well, so did they.
08:25They were just trying to get to work, and then they met you.
08:28Excessive and unnecessary use of the horn is against the law.
08:31Plus, they had several vehicle violations.
08:33I could have impounded their truck.
08:34And that justified you terrorizing them?
08:36Terrorizing? Really?
08:38That's it. Don't say another word to me.
08:40We're done with this conversation.
08:43It's 8.58. Class registration is about to begin.
08:46Can you pull over, please?
08:50We are not taking any calls.
08:51What if we get a priority one?
08:52Why are you trying to jinx me?
08:54Officers! Officers!
08:55How can I help you?
08:56You need to know what's going on in my neighbor's backyard.
08:58Oh, and you jinxed me.
08:59No, I didn't. What seems to be the problem?
09:01He has been out there building this thing for weeks.
09:04I know he doesn't have a permit.
09:05Okay. Sounds like an illegal add-on.
09:07You make your call, get Lila in that course,
09:10and I will take care of this.
09:11All right. Radio if you need me.
09:13Right.
09:14But only if you really need me.
09:15I...
09:17Shall we?
09:18Yes, please.
09:23Just so you know, Gary's a bit of a...
09:25What's the word? Moron.
09:27See? This can't be legal.
09:31Uh, sir! I have a word with you about...
09:33Uh, not now. I'm trying to find my helmet.
09:35We're at T-minus ten minutes.
09:36Where are you headed?
09:38Up.
09:40MUSIC ACADEMY
09:45Music Academy. How can I help you?
09:47Hi. Uh, yeah.
09:48I'm trying to get my daughter into the summer program.
09:51Is there still room?
09:52Let me check.
09:53He's a flat earther.
09:54Says he's out to prove the world is a pancake.
09:56No, no. Not a pancake.
09:58A disc within a dome.
10:00Sir, you can't launch that.
10:03Why not? I have permission.
10:04From who?
10:06MUSIC ACADEMY
10:08Sir, step on out.
10:10I'd stand back if I were you.
10:11Sir, just step on out before you do anything silly.
10:13Ten, nine, eight, seven, six...
10:19Yes, there is. Can I get her name?
10:21Yeah, yes, yeah. Her name...
10:23MUSIC ACADEMY
10:31Did I make it to space?
10:32You sure did.
10:33And when you landed, you said the Earth was round.
10:35It is?
10:36We're sorry, but registration for the Music Academy is now closed.
10:43I can't believe this.
10:44I promised Lila I would get her into that class.
10:47Look, you can't blame yourself.
10:48I don't.
10:49I see.
10:50Look, uh, this could be a good thing.
10:53I mean, a teachable moment for Lila.
10:55Show her that life has disappointments.
10:56Right, like when her mother lost custody of her for two years?
11:00Nolan, my daughter, knows all about disappointments.
11:02What I'm trying to do right now is show her how mommy can come through for her.
11:07I'm sorry.
11:10It's not over yet. Give me the keys.
11:13Are you still mad at me?
11:14I'm not mad.
11:15Really? Because you look mad.
11:17At least madder than usual.
11:19Thank you for coming.
11:20We keep getting our deliveries stolen.
11:22Most people on the block are having the same problem.
11:24Sounds like a porch pirate.
11:25No front door camera.
11:26We'll walk around and see if any of your neighbors have one.
11:32Okay, I'm not mad.
11:34But I am upset.
11:35I knew it.
11:37At myself.
11:38You're right.
11:39I used the situation with the Gardners without thinking about the impact I had on them.
11:44I can't undo it, but I can make sure I never do it again.
11:49That's progress.
11:50I'm proud of you.
11:52I'm thrilled.
11:53I'm thrilled.
11:57You better run, run, run, run, run.
11:59The porch pirate is a doggie?
12:05You better run, run, run, run, run.
12:07Chasing that dream.
12:09Chasing that dream.
12:11Chasing that dream.
12:13You better run, run, run, run, run.
12:14Good boy.
12:15Who's a good boy?
12:17Who's a good boy?
12:18Who's under arrest?
12:20Bad dog.
12:21Bad dog.
12:24Hey, what are you doing here?
12:27We need to talk.
12:28About seeing my mom's OBGYN for prenatal care.
12:30Shut up with that.
12:34They don't know I'm pregnant, remember?
12:37I wasn't that loud.
12:38They're not going to figure it out.
12:39They're detectives.
12:40Figuring out things isn't the job description.
12:45Speaking of which, why are you so hung up on me going to your mom's OBGYN?
12:49She's a specialist.
12:50So you said.
12:51What's going on?
12:54Look, after my dad died, I took a genetic test.
12:58Turns out I'm predisposed to fragile X syndrome.
13:01Can cause mental disabilities, seizures.
13:06Why are you just now telling me?
13:08I don't know.
13:09We didn't plan to get pregnant this soon.
13:11I wanted to tell you, I didn't know how to do it.
13:13You and the baby mean everything to me.
13:15And if my DNA...
13:16Stop.
13:17I'll make an appointment to see your mom's doctor.
13:21Look, I have to get back to work.
13:23I'll see you at home.
13:33Like I said, I called at nine on the dot and I got through, but then a man fell from the sky and...
13:38Please spare me the theatrics.
13:41No, no, no. This really actually happened.
13:43I can show you video.
13:44I'll give you points for originality, but rules are rules.
13:48Better luck next year.
13:50No, sir. I have it right here.
13:52Nyla, right? Alonzo Smith, Holly's dad.
13:56Is she the one with the long hair?
13:58God, no. The one with the braids.
14:00Long hair, Holly's a monster.
14:01She really is, isn't she?
14:03Was that the music academy director you were talking to?
14:05Yeah, I missed registration, so I was hoping I could come down here and try and appeal in person.
14:12Did you miss registration too?
14:14Overslept, so I thought I'd try swaying him with some cronuts from DK's.
14:18Oh, I love DK's.
14:20Take one.
14:22No, no, I can't. No, that's your bribe.
14:25I insist. If he wasn't moved by a cop in uniform, what's a box full of sugar and dough gonna do?
14:35My ex is going to kill me.
14:37Sure is mine.
14:38No, I'm serious. I got like an hour to live, so if you get called to a homicide in Silver Lake, that'll be me.
14:44At least I get to see you again.
14:49Look, I'm gonna poke around, see if I can find an angle to work to get Holly in.
14:54You want me to let you know if I find a workaround for Lila?
14:59Yeah, actually. I'd appreciate that.
15:05You know you ran that stop sign back there. License, registration, proof of insurance.
15:09They're in my bag. Is it okay if I reach in and grab them?
15:12Slowly. Why are you so nervous?
15:15No reason.
15:20Eric, anything illegal in the car or on your person?
15:25No, sir.
15:26Great. You won't mind if we search the car, then?
15:28We don't need to search the car.
15:30Like you said, nothing illegal in here, so you don't mind if we conduct a search, right?
15:35Uh, yeah. Yeah, I guess so.
15:38But there are guns in the trunk.
15:41Hands where I can see them.
15:43Somebody in the car?
15:45They're my ex-husbands. I was on my way to the police station to turn them in.
15:49Head to the sidewalk.
15:50Look, we're finalizing our divorce, and he's not happy with how it's going, and he's been threatening to kill me.
15:54Did you get a restraining order?
15:55Yes, but it doesn't stop him from driving by the house every day.
15:59You don't live with your husband?
16:00Ex-husband. And no.
16:02So how'd you get the guns?
16:03I used my old key.
16:07Erica, you're under arrest.
16:08What?
16:09Burglary. Possession of stolen property.
16:10What?
16:11Illegally transporting firearms.
16:12Why? No, I told you I was going to turn them in to the police.
16:15You can tell all that to the judge.
16:16Okay, look, can I talk to you for a second, sir?
16:22Take a seat on the car.
16:26Look, do we really need to take her in?
16:28Let's just book the guns and write it up for DA review.
16:31Come on, man.
16:32What do you say?
16:34First of all, never speak to me like that again.
16:37Come on, man.
16:38I'm your superior officer, not one of your homeboys.
16:42Yes, sir.
16:43Secondly, that woman just admitted to three felonies.
16:45She says she's turning in the weapons.
16:47But who's to say she wasn't on her way to blast her ex-husband's brains out?
16:51She's going in.
16:52Fill out her booking sheet. I'll call in a tow.
16:59Look, please. Please, please, you don't have to do this, okay?
17:01Look, help me. Look, I can't go to jail.
17:05I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
17:07I'm sorry.
17:11I'm telling you, it was awful.
17:13Awful, but lawful.
17:14Look, and by the way, her story completely checked out.
17:17She has a restraining order, called 9-1-1 a bunch of times,
17:20but she needed protection from her ex, but instead of helping,
17:24it turns out that she needed protection from the cops, too.
17:26Tim and I were stuck on a call. If we had been free, maybe we could have...
17:29No, no, this is my fault.
17:31Gray wanted to bench Doug.
17:32I pushed him to do more, and now that woman is in jail for no reason.
17:36You can't blame yourself.
17:38Getting rid of Doug is going to take time.
17:40How many more people are going to get hurt in the meantime?
17:42I just, I thought you supported me staying on the job a while longer.
17:46I do.
17:48What you are trying to do here is important,
17:50but I'm not going to just sit around, waiting to start my second act.
17:54So what, you want a job?
17:55Maybe, I don't know, but that's what I'm here to talk about.
17:58Okay, great. Um, have you considered volunteering?
18:01Oh, I'm not here to talk to you. I need to reinvent myself.
18:04Find my new purpose.
18:06And who knows more about that than John Nolan.
18:12I didn't know you could do that.
18:13Do what?
18:14Giggle.
18:15I don't giggle.
18:16Uh-huh. Who are you texting?
18:17Nolan.
18:19It's just, it's another one of the parents that's trying to get his kid into the academy.
18:23His kid? Oh, his kid.
18:25Oh, is he single? Is he nice?
18:27Nope, we are not doing this.
18:28Hey, guys.
18:29Hi.
18:30John, I have got a favor to ask.
18:32Of course.
18:33I'm starting to think about my second act in life,
18:36and I was wondering if I could pick your brain.
18:38I would be honored, yes.
18:40Great. I'm going to get a cup of coffee, and can I get you two anything?
18:44No, no, I'm good, thank you.
18:45Okay.
18:49Whatever you do, do not give her any advice.
18:52That's exactly what she asked for.
18:54Do not be this naive.
18:56The boss's wife wants to rethink her second act.
18:59That is between her and the boss.
19:01Trust me, you do not want to get involved.
19:03Just listen, smile, and nod.
19:06But what if I can actually help her?
19:08What if Sergeant Ray doesn't like the help you give?
19:11Who do you think he will blame then?
19:14Good point.
19:15Just smile, nod, and sympathetically say,
19:19Smile, nod, and sympathetically say,
19:22I hear you. You got it?
19:25I hear you.
19:28Hey, what's the deal with Jackson?
19:29Kid's questioning all my stops.
19:31Sounds like the mark of a good student.
19:32I don't see you letting Chen question your every move.
19:34My last rookie didn't ask questions, and he was a brother.
19:39Maybe the issue isn't the student, it's the teacher.
19:44Huh.
19:45Yeah, maybe you're right.
19:46Whatever nonsense Lopez was teaching him,
19:48I got 20 days to straighten him out.
19:51I climbed the ladder to VP of Sales,
19:54but that was 19 years ago.
19:56Yeah, I hear you.
19:57Now Dominique's in college, and Wade, he's busy as ever.
20:01Feels like everyone is moving forward except me.
20:05I hear you.
20:06Now you know my whole life story.
20:08What do you think?
20:10Well, um, when my son went off to college,
20:14and my divorce was finalized,
20:16I, I just, I felt a little lost, you know, just like you.
20:19So how did you figure out what to do next?
20:21Well, looking down the barrel of a gun during a bank robbery
20:24will give you some clarity, but I advise against it.
20:28Okay, well, what would you advise?
20:31I would advise...
20:33Just wait.
20:34Be open for your Eureka moment.
20:38My Eureka moment.
20:40I love it.
20:41Yes, it's perfect.
20:42It's, it's profound, yet so simple.
20:47Okay.
20:51I will speak kindly of you at your funeral.
20:55No more pain, no more pain.
20:58I will speak kindly of you at your funeral.
21:02No more pain, no more anxiety.
21:05By the way, do you know my son, Officer Nolan,
21:08he swears by this stuff.
21:09I mean, how else would a 48-year-old rookie
21:11make it in the LAPD?
21:13I'm 46. I'm 46.
21:15Hi.
21:16Hi.
21:17I'm his mother, Evelyn.
21:19Oh, hi.
21:20And this is gonna change your life.
21:2220 bucks a pop, three for 50.
21:24Certified organic.
21:26I see why you use this stuff, Nolan.
21:28My neck's already better.
21:29I don't, sweetie. I don't, I don't actually use it.
21:31Mom, what are you doing? These are my co-workers.
21:33Now they're my customers.
21:34Nolan, we gotta roll.
21:35Uh, please stop being here.
21:38Just go home, okay?
21:39Uh, so good talking to you.
21:40Thank you for the advice.
21:46Why should he have to go through this with Stanton?
21:48If I did one-tenth of the things that guy does on the job,
21:50I'd be gone so fast.
21:52As a rookie, sure.
21:53But not once you're off probation.
21:55There are layers of safeguards that protect cops from getting fired.
21:58And some of those safeguards are important,
22:00considering the risks we take.
22:01It doesn't explain why he gets a pass on being a complete monster.
22:04He doesn't get a pass.
22:05He gets POBOR.
22:06Peace Officer Bill of Rights.
22:08And he gets a union and a legal defense team.
22:10If he gets fired, he gets to appeal.
22:12If he gets convicted, he gets to appeal.
22:14And those lawyers, which our union dues pay for,
22:16will tear apart every detail surrounding his termination.
22:20If they find one thing out of order or just seems excessive,
22:23he gets his job back, including back pay.
22:25And then?
22:26He gets emboldened with a huge chip on his shoulder,
22:28and that negative attitude is contagious.
22:30The weight of this shouldn't all fall on Jackson.
22:32There's got to be more we can do than just be guardian angels out there
22:35hoping that we get to Jackson in time.
22:37If something goes wrong, it's...
22:49We got a body in a bag found near LAX.
22:52No head, no hands, no witnesses.
22:54No problem. I'm on it, Sarge.
22:56Actually, this one's going to go to Vargas.
22:58But I'm next on the rotation.
23:00Under my discretion.
23:01Is there a problem?
23:02No, sir.
23:10Does Sarge give a lot of cases out of rotation?
23:13Almost never.
23:23Hello?
23:24Nolan, are you some kind of con man?
23:27What?
23:28You talked my wife into finding her Eureka moment
23:30and your mother swooped in for the kill?
23:32Wait, I'm sorry.
23:33My mom sold Luna a bottle of CBD oil?
23:36Not a bottle.
23:38All the bottles.
23:40My wife paid your mother $10,000 for her franchise.
23:43And I'm not the only one.
23:45I'm not the only one.
23:46I'm not the only one.
23:47I'm not the only one.
23:48I'm not the only one.
23:49My wife paid your mother $10,000 for her franchise.
23:54You are giving Luna her money back.
23:55Yeah, well, that's not going to happen.
23:57Besides, she doesn't want it back.
23:59She's happy with her purchase.
24:00This is my boss's wife.
24:02Do you have any idea what this could do to my career?
24:04This has nothing to do with you, honey,
24:06or your precious career.
24:08Luna and I got to talking.
24:09She liked my business, and so I sold it to her.
24:12For 10 grand?
24:13I wanted 25, but she's a hell of a negotiator.
24:16This is just like back home with my construction business.
24:18Oh, there you go with that old chestnut again.
24:20I would finish a job, and then you would use my good name
24:23to sell my customers fraudulent home insurance policies.
24:25Oh, will you please just let that go?
24:27I almost lost my business license.
24:29This is the problem with men.
24:31You and that Sergeant Gray.
24:33What are you talking about?
24:36You look down on women.
24:38Luna is an excellent salesperson.
24:40You watch.
24:41She's going to double her investment.
24:43Mother, I'm begging you.
24:45For me, please.
24:47Give Luna her money back.
24:48It isn't her money.
24:50It's mine.
24:54That crap your mom sold me is poison.
24:57Take a look at this thing on my neck.
24:59Oh, Smitty, you should get that mole checked.
25:01No, not the mole.
25:02I've always had that below that.
25:05Yeah, and I'm not the only one.
25:16Sir, Mrs. Gray, I'm so sorry.
25:19John, no need to apologize.
25:21My husband needs to.
25:27Officer Nolan, I'm sorry for accusing you and your mom
25:32of scamming my wife.
25:34Luna's assured me that CBD is a growth market,
25:37and she is guaranteed to make money on this stuff.
25:40No, that's toxic.
25:41It's what?
25:42Toxic.
25:43The cops are breaking out into rashes
25:44all over the department.
25:45Your mother sold me snake oil?
25:46Yes, but I don't think that she knew that she did.
25:49At least I hope she didn't.
25:50What'd I tell you?
25:51I'm sitting on $10,000 worth of skin irritant.
25:53I fixed this in one phone call.
25:55Mom, the CBD oil is toxic.
25:58You have to give Luna her money back.
26:00I'm with Sergeant...
26:02Hello?
26:03Hello?
26:04Two phone calls.
26:08So what are we doing here?
26:09Doug mentioned his last rookie was black,
26:11so I thought he might be inclined
26:12to give us some dirt on his old T.O.
26:14Something actionable.
26:15That's great. Who is he?
26:16Ben Owens.
26:17And he's right on time.
26:18Now, look, I don't know this guy,
26:20so we can't tip our hand.
26:21All right?
26:22We make no accusations, no demands.
26:24Understood?
26:25No accusations, no demands.
26:26I got it.
26:27Officer Owens.
26:29I'm Bradford.
26:30This is Chen.
26:31Thanks for agreeing to meet up.
26:32No problem.
26:33Passed around, heard you're good people.
26:35So what's up?
26:36I need some insight.
26:37I'm on the DL, if you know what I mean.
26:3810-36.
26:40Code of silence.
26:41Talk to me.
26:42Doug Stanton.
26:43He was your T.O.
26:44The Doug or not?
26:45What about him?
26:46You ever see him doing anything shady?
26:49Relax.
26:50We were just wondering if you liked
26:52the way he does business.
26:53No.
26:54No way.
26:55He's a hater.
26:56But what do you really want to know?
26:57Whatever you feel comfortable sharing with us.
27:00It's...
27:01This is stupid.
27:02We all know what we're talking about.
27:03Do you think Doug is a racist?
27:04Have you ever seen him treat minorities unfairly?
27:06If I saw something outside of policy
27:08and I failed to report it,
27:09I'd be looking at disciplinary action, too.
27:11We're not here for that, okay?
27:13Just be real with us.
27:14He's created some grief on our end.
27:16Hey, you got a good rep and all,
27:18but I don't know you.
27:20I do know Doug Stanton,
27:21and I am well aware of what he can do to me in my career.
27:24Yeah, what about what he's doing
27:25to civilians out on the street?
27:29I'm weeks away from joining Metro.
27:31I can do more good in that unit
27:34than I can by throwing it all away.
27:36I'm sorry.
27:37I can't help you.
27:38You have a good day.
27:40Well, that was a bust.
27:42No, it wasn't.
27:43Do you see him, how conflicted he was?
27:45He's got to give him time.
27:47Trust me.
27:48My mother is claiming
27:49your money is tied up in other investments,
27:51but I have the address of the supplier.
27:53I'll get your refund.
27:54Forget it. I'll handle it.
27:55No, I will.
27:57You two can tag along.
27:59Fine.
28:00Nolan and I can't handle a personal matter in uniform.
28:03Let's go change out.
28:04You can listen to me brainstorm
28:05on how I'm going to punish you.
28:07Wait. It is not his fault.
28:08Punishing him for his mother's behavior
28:10would be like punishing me for my dad's.
28:14I see your point.
28:16I'll find Harper till you're riding with me this morning.
28:19Yes, sir.
28:22Thank you for that.
28:23I'm guessing your dad was a bit of a scammer, too?
28:26Alcoholic.
28:28It's brought me a lifetime of pain.
28:30Almost broke up my marriage.
28:32So what are you supposed to do
28:33when someone you love is ruining your life
28:36but you don't know how to help them?
28:37I know what I had to do.
28:39But I'm not you, and my father isn't your mother.
28:42However, you did offer me some advice,
28:45so I will return the favor.
28:47Find your limits, John.
28:50We can't change their behavior.
28:51They have to want it.
28:53So be honest, be merciful,
28:58and do whatever you have to do to protect yourself.
29:11What's up, my brother?
29:14You sure?
29:17Give me a heads up.
29:19Everything okay?
29:20About to find out.
29:21Just got a tip. Let's go see if it's real.
29:27Okay.
29:33Control, 7 out of 7,
29:34have an on-view 11-3 deal in alley
29:36between Lomita and Vineyard.
29:42Follow the backpack!
29:447 out of 7, foot pursuit,
29:45yellow dope, black blue shirt, black jeans.
29:51We're not close.
29:52Then punch it.
29:54There!
29:59Freeze!
30:00Don't make me kill you.
30:01I got it, I got it.
30:08Damn it.
30:09Jackson, I lost my body camera.
30:11You seen it?
30:12No.
30:13But what I do see is a lousy attempt at hiding evidence.
30:16Look, I can't get someone down there to get that.
30:18What's your name, dumbass?
30:19Ask your mama.
30:20She was screaming it all last night.
30:22You and me are going to have a lesson in respect.
30:25Teach your mama some respect.
30:26Get that hoe off the streets.
30:29Look.
30:30Close your list.
30:32Preserve the evidence.
30:33I'm going to take our friend back to the shop.
30:35I can take him, sir.
30:36No.
30:37I got it.
30:38You stay here.
30:39Come on.
30:40Let's go, son.
30:53You've reached Sergeant Gray of LAPD's Midwilshire Station.
30:57Please leave a message.
30:58Sergeant, it's Jackson.
30:59Look, I think Doug's about to beat the crap out of a suspect.
31:02And you lost his body cam so there won't be a record.
31:22Found my body cam.
31:24More importantly, what are you doing here?
31:26I told you to guard the drugs.
31:28I don't remember calling for backup.
31:30We were in the neighborhood.
31:31What's going on?
31:32Well, this rookie doesn't know how to follow orders.
31:34Yeah, I was just making sure you were all right.
31:39Sorry.
31:40You know, my last rookie did everything I told him to.
31:42Guy's name was Owens.
31:44You know him?
31:45Always had my back.
31:47Still does.
31:49Too bad Jackson isn't more like him.
31:53Let's go.
32:00Since when do you drink decaf?
32:02I know.
32:03When I made detective, I was drinking like two quarts of high test a day.
32:09Everything okay?
32:10Yeah.
32:13No, not really.
32:15I'm getting sidelined.
32:16Why?
32:18This stays between us.
32:21I'm pregnant.
32:23Wow, that's amazing.
32:24Congratulations.
32:26Wait, Keridine can't vent you for that.
32:28Technically, no.
32:29Just assigning the good cases to the non-preggers.
32:32Bastard.
32:33That is exactly why I hid my pregnancy.
32:36I banked my vacation and took the last two months off.
32:39That's not fair.
32:40No one ever asks a man how he's going to balance being a dad and a cop at the same time.
32:45I know.
32:47Did you have to get an amniocentesis?
32:50Is that the long needle in the belly thing?
32:52No.
32:53Why do you have to?
32:55Yeah.
32:57And the messed up part is, even if the mutated gene we're afraid of is detected,
33:03we won't know if my baby's affected until it's born.
33:08I thought being a mom was going to be so simple.
33:13Does it get easier?
33:14It hasn't yet.
33:16But if it ever does, you are my first phone call.
33:27I'm getting a rash just being in here.
33:30No wonder the oil's toxic.
33:35Yeah, this feels like my mom's style.
33:43Good afternoon.
33:44What do you want?
33:45Direct.
33:46I like it.
33:47You recently sold 20 cases of Professor Hempstein CBD oil to my business partner, Evelyn Nolan.
33:53The product is defective, and I would like a refund.
33:56No refunds. Get lost.
33:58Listen, man.
33:59I appreciate that, but if we leave without recompense,
34:03I will be forced to alert the health department and the Better Business Bureau.
34:06Knock yourself out. Just don't do it from here.
34:09If I may.
34:11My friend, you really don't want to make this a thing.
34:14This stuff will take the paint off your car.
34:17Once that gets out, your business will dry up.
34:20Just give her the ten grand back.
34:21Ten? That crap only costs two.
34:24Pretty hefty franchise fee your mom charged us.
34:27Your mom?
34:29I know.
34:30Just don't start.
34:32She's good for it, okay? Or at least I am.
34:34Look, don't be an ass and give me the money back.
34:37Get the hell out of here.
34:38And next time, bring some muscle that's not past its expiration date.
34:42You hear that, Officer Nolan?
34:44He thinks we're old.
34:46Yes, I did, Sergeant Gray.
34:47Though I prefer to think of myself as well-seasoned.
34:52I want you to go way downstairs, baby.
34:54Yeah, we'll let the lawyers straighten this out.
34:56These guys aren't worth the trouble.
35:00Ain't gonna be no trouble. Right, son?
35:03I got the feeling CBD isn't the only product you guys have here.
35:10I don't suppose you got anything here I would consider...
35:13What's the word I'm looking for?
35:15Illegal.
35:16That's the one.
35:18This doesn't have to get ugly, gentlemen, but it will if we don't see your hands in five seconds.
35:24Screw five seconds now.
35:27Show me your hands now!
35:31All right. All right!
35:34Taking my hand out.
35:37Back up.
35:39Everyone on the ground, down! Face down, hands out!
35:45Got him.
35:469-1-1, what is your emergency?
35:48We've got a man down on the ground.
35:50We've got a man down on the ground.
35:52We've got a man down on the ground.
35:54Got him.
35:559-1-1, what is your emergency?
35:56Yes, my husband is a police officer and he is currently in jeopardy on the 10th floor of 2108 Marcus Street.
36:04Send backup.
36:09And an ambulance.
36:13Guns.
36:20That's my girl.
36:25Hi.
36:26Hey.
36:27What are you doing here?
36:29I had to give you the good news in person.
36:31No, you didn't.
36:33But I did. Both of our daughters are now enrolled at the music academy.
36:37How? How did you do it? The extortion?
36:39Quid pro quo. The music director has a charity near and dear to his heart that's desperate for volunteers.
36:45So, you'll have to clear your calendar a bit.
36:48Lila's going to be thrilled.
36:50How can I thank you?
36:52Take me to dinner. You hungry?
36:54Uh, yeah, but I can't tonight. Kid duty.
37:01Acceptable excuse, but you owe me.
37:06I'm good for it.
37:13Client got locked up?
37:14Yeah.
37:15I'll be asleep when you get home, so.
37:19I'll see you in the morning.
37:21I'll see you in the morning.
37:22Angela, wait. Please talk to me.
37:25What do you want me to say?
37:29I'm scared.
37:32So am I.
37:35Hey Sarge, a word?
37:36I'm in a little bit of a hurry.
37:37I don't care. What you did yesterday was crap.
37:40Just because I'm pregnant doesn't mean I can't do my job.
37:43You gave my homicide to Vargas, so I'm putting you on notice, Sarge.
37:46I'm not hiding this pregnancy.
37:48I'd be doing a disservice to every woman who works here if I do.
37:51So, if I start waddling, or my ankles swell, or I knock over furniture because my belly's so big,
37:56don't ever skip me in the rotation again.
38:02First of all, I gave that case to Vargas because it had state-line crew written all over it.
38:08He has two C.I.s inside.
38:10Oh. I wasn't aware of that.
38:14And second, you're pregnant?
38:15You didn't know?
38:16How could I?
38:18But congratulations.
38:20And just so you know, I'll work you till you drop if you let me.
38:23There's no mercy for moms-to-be.
38:25May I go now?
38:27Yes, Sergeant.
38:29And thank you.
38:34See how I handled that?
38:36I'm gonna be such a great mom.
38:38The best.
38:48You packed my bags?
38:51You throwing me out on the street?
38:53I got you a room at the airport hotel.
38:55Your flight leaves at 6 a.m.
38:57You know I hate early flights.
38:59Deal with it. Your problems are no longer mine.
39:02So what? You want me to say I'm sorry?
39:04No, I don't want to hear you say anything. I just want you gone.
39:09Oh, boy, you've got all your little cop friends fooled.
39:13Thinking you're a wholesome small-town guy, huh?
39:18You're just like your father.
39:20Don't say that.
39:21You are egotistical, self-righteous, failure of a man.
39:28Because when he ran out on me, and you, who stayed?
39:33I did.
39:36I stayed.
39:39Now you want to throw me out?
39:47I love you.
39:49I will always love you.
39:53I just don't want to see you anymore.
40:06Watch over us.
40:13By the way, becoming a cop at 48 is ridiculous.
40:17You're going to get yourself killed.
40:19I'm 46, Mom.
40:21Goodbye.
40:35I got nothing to say to you.
40:45You have plenty to say to Doug, though.
40:47What happened to code of silence?
40:48What happened to cops having each other's backs?
40:50Yeah, Tim has mine.
40:51Who are you?
40:52The cop you just screwed over.
40:54Why'd you do it?
40:55Blue protects blue. I know that. Doug knows that.
40:58Why don't you?
40:59Look, are you actually cool with all this?
41:01This is the game.
41:03I didn't make waves, and Doug hooked me up with a spot on Metro.
41:06You can just ignore all the pain he causes, the abuse of power, to get that promotion?
41:11The system is not going to change.
41:14So what's the point of me throwing myself off a cliff?
41:16I got to get what's mine, and I advise you do the same.
41:19Because Doug's not going down without a fight.
41:21Sir, you got a second?
41:23What is it, officer?
41:27I hate to do it, but I had to write a blue page up on the kid.
41:30He disobeyed a direct order, leaving crucial evidence unattended.
41:33Now the drug dealer's lawyer can get the charges dropped because Jackson broke the chain of custody.
41:39I can appreciate the magnitude of his error.
41:42But I can personally attest to Officer West being a solid cop.
41:47Absolutely, sir. Absolutely.
41:49But as his training officer, it'd be a dereliction of duty for me to let this slide.
41:54He shouldn't be making mistakes like this, especially this late in his training.
41:58I mean, you understand, don't you, Sergeant?
42:02I do.
42:03Yeah. I mean, it's a damn shame.
42:05The kid has such great potential.
42:08It'd be such a waste to have him wash out of the program.
