00:00♪♪
00:05♪♪
00:14Control, 7 out of 15.
00:16We have a structure fire at 8650 Magnolia.
00:19Please notify LAFD.
00:21You think anyone's in there?
00:22No one that's supposed to be.
00:24Is that a scream?
00:26Control, what's the ETA in LAFD?
00:29Two minutes.
00:30That's too long.
00:31Control, be advised, we're going in to look for victims.
00:34Ready?
00:35♪♪♪
00:50Help me!
00:53Help!
00:54Someone help me!
00:55♪♪♪
01:04Control, he's hit.
01:07Control, he's hit.
01:29Is there anyone else inside?
01:31Not that we saw.
01:32You shouldn't have gone in.
01:33It's kind of our job, saving people.
01:35From crime?
01:36You don't see us running towards gunfire.
01:38You think that's just wood smoke you're breathing in?
01:40All the toxic things in a home, once they catch fire,
01:43they turn to deadly gases.
01:44Ammonium, carbon dioxide, hydrogen cyanide.
01:47So unless you want me dragging your ass to safety
01:50in the future, you'll leave the rescues to the professionals.
01:59How's it going with you two?
02:00Doing good.
02:02Doing good.
02:04♪♪♪♪
02:09How is it that I still smell like smoke
02:11after a 30-minute shower?
02:12Welcome to my world.
02:13You always smell fantastic.
02:15That's because I spend half my salary
02:16on perfumes, potions, and detergents.
02:19Well, it's working.
02:22Did you think that fire was arson?
02:24Maybe.
02:25I smelled accelerant.
02:27The arson investigator will know for sure.
02:29You ever think about doing that?
02:30Arson investigation?
02:31Yeah.
02:32No.
02:33I like the physical part of firefighting.
02:35Plus, I wouldn't have time for all my extracurriculars.
02:37Army reserve, teaching, motorcycle racing.
02:40Dating me.
02:41Dating you.
02:42Motorcycle racing?
02:45What is it?
02:47They found a body.
02:52Carl.
02:53Hey, Bailey.
02:54This is John Nolan, LAPD.
02:56He and his partner pulled the survivor out
02:58before we got here.
02:59Did you give him the lecture about how stupid it is
03:01to go into a structured fire without a mask?
03:03It was given and understood.
03:05Any luck IDing the victim yet?
03:07Nah, it's too soon.
03:08There were fifth and sixth degree burns.
03:10But from the size, I'd say it was a man.
03:12And you might want to start referring
03:14to him as a suspect instead of the victim.
03:17You think RDB started the fire?
03:19That's what the evidence suggests.
03:21It was right where it started, and an accelerant
03:23was definitely used.
03:24No way it could have been just an addict
03:26falling asleep next to a liquor.
03:27No, no, no.
03:28The fire got too hot too fast.
03:29So what are you thinking?
03:31That the guy we pulled out of there
03:32might be able to give us some insight.
03:36So, how's the book?
03:38Terrible.
03:39But who cares?
03:40It's my third maternity leave book.
03:41I've been lucky to average one a year up till now.
03:44Maybe I should extend my lease,
03:46spend a little more time with Jack.
03:48I think that's a great idea.
03:49Because you don't want me to go back to work?
03:51Because you want me to quit being a detective
03:53and focus on what really matters?
03:54Because you think I won't fulfill my mom potential
03:56if I'm at crime scenes all day?
03:58Wow.
03:59Where did that come from?
04:00I don't know.
04:03Clearly, I'm a little conflicted
04:05about going back to work.
04:08I want you to do whatever makes you happy.
04:11But I do think that it's time
04:12to leave the baby home for a night
04:14and go on a date.
04:15Well, what's Jack?
04:17Your mom, my mom,
04:19or some teenager we pull off the street.
04:21Who cares?
04:22We deserve some alone time.
04:24And some fine dining.
04:25Hell, yes.
04:26Fancier, the better.
04:27I'm in.
04:35Client.
04:36I have a meeting I forgot about.
04:39I'll make reservations for 7 o'clock, okay?
04:43Hey.
04:46I love you.
04:47I love you, too.
04:53Hey.
04:54How's it going with Harper?
04:55I mean, I'm still here, so...
04:57I'm good, I guess.
04:58She was my training officer.
04:59You're in great hands.
05:00Look, I'm just trying to do whatever I can
05:02to keep her from giving me that look.
05:03Oh, the triple D?
05:04Yeah, I know it well.
05:05Disappointment, disbelief, and disdain.
05:08I think she developed it in a lab somewhere
05:10to destroy self-confidence.
05:11Yeah, my mom has a version of it.
05:13You think I'd be immune
05:14given how often she's used it on me over the years?
05:17Well, Harper uses it on the daily.
05:19I'm still not used to it.
05:20Hang in there.
05:21So I also need you to cover C Division today.
05:23Anything else you need?
05:25Paint your house or clean your car?
05:27I got two roving sergeants for six divisions.
05:30Welcome to your new reality.
05:32That's why you should take on a sergeant's aid.
05:35I don't need an aid.
05:37It's not a sign of weakness.
05:39It's a necessity given how under-resourced we are.
05:43I guess I could use a gopher.
05:45Someone to go for coffee or supplies.
05:48Call it whatever you want.
05:49Just pull an officer out of roll call.
05:51Hell, pull Chin.
05:53You two work together good.
05:56Tim is going to ask you to be his gopher.
05:59What? His-his what?
06:01His aid.
06:02He's stretched a little thin.
06:03Gray suggested he take you on to assist.
06:06Me specifically?
06:07Yeah.
06:08Uh, is there a problem?
06:10No, ma'am.
06:11I'm just excited to hear
06:12what new nicknames you came up with for me.
06:14Hmm.
06:15Uh, I-I've narrowed it down to three.
06:18Um, get out of my face.
06:20Mm-hmm.
06:21Sit your ass down.
06:22Okay.
06:23And I will tell you when I am ready.
06:27I love them all.
06:28Okay.
06:29Triple D.
06:31What was that?
06:32Nothing.
06:33Just sit my ass down.
06:34All right, settle down, everyone.
06:36Sergeant Bradford, you want to start us off?
06:38Yes.
06:39Um, I'm in need of a gopher.
06:41It won't be glamorous,
06:43but it'll be a learning experience.
06:47Webber, how about it?
06:49You ready to get off patrol?
06:50Yes, sir.
06:51Looking forward to it.
06:52You said...
06:53I thought...
06:54It's Officer Nolan.
06:55Sir, I saw your request to follow up
06:57on the man you pulled out of the fire yesterday.
06:59Yes, sir.
07:00I checked with the hospital.
07:01He regained consciousness.
07:02I thought it would be important
07:03to get a statement
07:04while his memory was fresh.
07:05Sir, I agree.
07:06I'll notify Kerry Dean
07:07for when he assigns a detective.
07:08You're driving today.
07:10Hey, you know I almost qualified
07:12to race in the British Grand Prix, right?
07:13I mean, before my troubles.
07:15And you've never known real fear
07:17until you've gone airborne
07:18on a Formula One car.
07:19Yeah.
07:20Try being hunted
07:21by a pack of cartel sicarios,
07:23then get back to me.
07:24Okay, that's a story I want to hear.
07:26Nyla.
07:27Hi.
07:28What are you doing here?
07:31Just stopped by to ask you to lunch.
07:33It's 9 a.m.
07:35All right.
07:36Sorry.
07:37When your kid gets up before the sun,
07:39you lose track of time.
07:40Uh, plus, I was wondering, um,
07:43if you could take care of this ticket for me.
07:46Uh-uh.
07:47No.
07:48Put it away.
07:49I can't.
07:50I'm gonna go set up the shop.
07:51Mm-hmm.
07:52I'm sorry.
07:53I knew I shouldn't have asked.
07:54Yeah, you also shouldn't have been going 60 in a 30.
07:57What were you thinking?
07:58That my ex was gonna tear me a new one
08:00if I was late for my pickup again.
08:02That's no excuse.
08:03Can I take you to dinner this week?
08:06I'd love that.
08:07I want to.
08:11Hmm.
08:13You guys have a boyfriend?
08:16No, I'm just curious to know, um,
08:18if I gave off any signals
08:20that would make you comfortable enough
08:23to ask me a personal question.
08:26No, there, um, there were none.
08:28There were no signals given.
08:29Um, that's what some people like to call my bad.
08:32Mm-hmm.
08:33Get your ass in the shop.
08:34Okay.
08:35Why would you tell me
08:36that Tim was going to pick me when he didn't?
08:38Because Grey told him to.
08:39Then why didn't he?
08:40I don't know, but clearly it bothers you.
08:42I just...
08:43It would make a good career opportunity.
08:45As a roving supervisor,
08:46Tim responds to all the high-profile cases,
08:49and being right there with him
08:50would make me stand out when promotion time comes.
08:53So tell him you want the gig.
08:54Oh, he would just love that.
08:55Being in the position to decide my fate again.
08:59No.
09:00He'll come around.
09:01I just have to give it time.
09:03Because the one thing I know for sure
09:05is that Tim is definitely missing me right now.
09:09I can't believe the up made that call.
09:11And in the bottom of the ninth.
09:12It was clearly foul.
09:13I know!
09:14By, like, three feet.
09:15What's the point of this replay
09:16if you're not gonna get it right?
09:17Hey, man, you preaching to the choir.
09:19Hey, you know I get season tickets
09:21to the Dodgers and the Angels.
09:22So if you ever want to hit up a game,
09:24just let me know.
09:25I'll hook you up.
09:26Don't say that if you don't mean it,
09:28because I will call.
09:29Hey, that's the least a gopher could do.
09:32Hey.
09:33My man.
09:35Hi there.
09:36Hi.
09:37Mr. Hall, do you remember us?
09:39We pulled you out of the fire yesterday.
09:40What were you doing in the house?
09:42Oh, well, uh, I've been squatting there.
09:46It's a lot safer than being on the streets.
09:48Oh, of course.
09:49How long have you been there?
09:50Since I returned.
09:52From?
09:53Cremulus.
09:55And Cremulus is?
09:56Oh, it's the planet right next to Proxima Centauri.
09:59But no one really knows about it,
10:01so please just keep it to yourself.
10:03Oh, I-I think you can count on us.
10:05Now, were you there alone?
10:07Did anybody come back with you?
10:09No.
10:10No, those who walk a celestial path
10:13are destined for solitude.
10:16But I did hear some voices yesterday.
10:19Okay, how do I put this?
10:21Were the voices inside your head, or were they...
10:26In the house.
10:27Ah.
10:28Two guys.
10:29I heard them coming through the back.
10:32I hid so that they wouldn't see me.
10:35Mm.
10:36Maybe half an hour later,
10:39that's when the fire started.
10:42Did you hear what the voices were saying?
10:44Would you recognize them if you heard them again?
10:46No, they were pretty muffled.
10:48And you're sure it wasn't just one man?
10:50Yes.
10:52Because one of them was yelling,
10:56and the other was crying.
11:00Mr. Stone insisted on waiting in your office.
11:04Of course he did.
11:05He's got a couple shooters with him.
11:07Serious-looking dudes.
11:09Feels like a Carthef situation.
11:11That's a good idea.
11:13All right, give me two minutes.
11:23Hey.
11:24Hey.
11:25Counselor, punctuality is a quality
11:28I expect from all my employees.
11:31Well, having a newborn
11:33kind of throws punctuality out the window.
11:35Need I remind you why you still have a son to dote on?
11:38No, I'm aware of what I owe you.
11:40And yet you spent the last month
11:42on paternity leave, avoiding paying me back,
11:45which makes me think you're trying to go back on our deal.
11:49No, not at all.
11:51I just think that I'm best used in an un-muddied capacity.
11:55I've been meaning to speak to you.
11:57I have a sterling reputation with law enforcement,
11:59but that only benefits you if I can continue...
12:01Shut up.
12:03You seem confused about the dynamics at play here.
12:06You work for me now, which means what I say goes...
12:09So sorry to interrupt,
12:10but someone just tried to steal my car from out front.
12:13The police will be here in a minute.
12:14Is that so?
12:17You know, the only thing worse than stealing...
12:20in my book...
12:22is lying.
12:26And yet you lie and steal for a living.
12:29What can I say?
12:31I'm a walking contradiction.
12:38Just think about what we just spoke on.
12:41It'd be better for everybody
12:43if I didn't have to say it again.
12:47Okay.
12:55Where are we right now, boot?
12:58Uh, San Vicente and...
13:00If you have to look, you don't know.
13:01And trouble is not gonna wait for you to find a street sign.
13:04Got it. Sorry. I will do better.
13:07Mind if I take this?
13:11Whatever you think is best.
13:14Go for Aaron.
13:15Hey, Aaron, it's Quinn from TMZ.
13:17I really need to talk to you.
13:18Disguising your number. Smart.
13:20Look, man, I told you, I'm not interested.
13:22An alert just came in. You should check the box.
13:24I've been calling you all week, man. I could never reach you.
13:26Hollywood Division is running a 246.
13:28Look, hear me out before you say no, okay?
13:30I've got a really sweet deal for you.
13:32I've got my editor to up the price to 100 grand.
13:34Hey, look, man, I told you, I'm not interested, okay?
13:36Don't call me again.
13:37Uh, did you see the guy in the trench coat?
13:39He might be concealing a weapon.
13:417-out-of-19, clear for traffic.
13:43I didn't see a guy in the trench coat. Should I turn around?
13:45Do you think you should turn around?
13:47I mean, did you see a weapon?
13:48Did I say I saw one?
13:507-out-of-19, security check.
13:52What was the drive-by shooting vehicle Hollywood was working?
13:54I didn't see it.
13:56It came over the radio.
13:58Right. Um, I was...
14:00I was looking for that guy, possibly concealing a weapon,
14:02but I will find him.
14:04Suspect's vehicle is a...
14:07All units unable to reach 7-out-of-19.
14:09Last location near Stoner Park.
14:117-out-of-100, copy missing officer.
14:13Oh, my God, an officer's missing?
14:15Two.
14:17Two officers are missing.
14:18Okay, that's even worse.
14:20Should we look for them, or should we find this trench coat guy?
14:227-out-of-100, I copy the missing officer.
14:25Hartburg to Bradford, you guys code 4?
14:27Code 4.
14:29What's our call sign?
14:317-out-of-19.
14:34Oh.
14:36We're the missing officers.
14:39That is embarrassing.
14:41Yes, it is for you.
14:43I get a free pass your first week.
14:45All of your many failures are blamed on the academy.
14:48So what have you learned?
14:50That taking the wheel is demanding enough,
14:53and I shouldn't be adding in personal phone calls into the mix.
15:00There wasn't an armed man in the trench coat, was there?
15:02Mm-mm-mm.
15:05Hello!
15:07Didn't I see you guys on a milk carton?
15:10I don't get it.
15:12Because we were considered missing.
15:15They used to put pictures of missing kids on milk cartons.
15:18Yes, in the 80s.
15:19Yes, in the 80s.
15:20How did I end up the first one?
15:21Oh, excuse me.
15:23Hey, how come Bradford didn't choose Lucy to be his girlfriend?
15:26I don't know, but she's not being very adult about it.
15:29So, how was it riding with Tim?
15:32Oh, it's been great.
15:33You know, everyone always talks about how tough this arch could be,
15:36but we've been having the best time.
15:38Really? That's awesome.
15:41So, you know, when I was riding with him,
15:44I learned some foolproof ways to stay on his good side.
15:47You know, if you want some tips.
15:49Yeah, that'd be great.
15:50I appreciate that.
15:59Let me see your hands!
16:02Let me see your hands!
16:03Put your guns down!
16:04Crime and security! We got CCW permits!
16:06Who just shot our client through the windshield?
16:08Let's get clear.
16:15Sarge?
16:16Yeah.
16:17I think we got a sniper.
16:18What do you see?
16:20Three shots, group tight, high in the windshield.
16:22Searching for where the car was.
16:23I'd say our sniper is northeast.
16:25Control, seven out of 100.
16:26We got a shooter with a long gun.
16:27The 16,000 block of Rochester Avenue.
16:29I need eastbound traffic.
16:30Veteran, shut down.
16:31Get SWAT en route.
16:32Harper, Thornton, secure the scene.
16:34Nolan, Chad, Webb, you're on me.
16:36Move, move!
16:37Get inside!
16:38Come on!
16:39Get inside!
16:40Get inside!
16:41Get on the street!
16:42Come on, move!
16:43Get on the street!
16:44Come on!
16:45Hey!
16:47Stop right there!
17:00You won't get away!
17:08Seven out of 15 taking shots inside 16,000 Rochester parking garage.
17:13We're going up, requesting more units to cover the exits.
17:24Get your hands up!
17:29You want to come around here?
17:35You want to come around here?
17:46Check out that man.
17:47I'm disappointed you didn't go after him.
17:49Oh, I was halfway out the window.
17:51Lucy had to pull me back.
17:53This guy's a pro, Sarge.
17:54Put three bullets through tempered glass into a moving vehicle
17:57and he's still dead center in his target?
17:59Only a couple dozen people in the world who could do that.
18:01The secondary escape route screams elite training.
18:03Someone paid real money for this guy's services.
18:06You got a name on the target?
18:07Michael Silver, some kind of import-export guy.
18:09Hired a security company a week ago.
18:11Didn't tell him why.
18:12Or at least they're not sharing with us.
18:14Intelligence unit is running Silver's name to see if he's in their database.
18:17Well, clearly he pissed off some bad people.
18:19Okay, we got an ID on our arson victim.
18:22Nelson Crespo, he's a 35-year-old restaurant manager.
18:24A couple of minor drug arrests.
18:26And he has an apartment in Culver City with his wife Celia.
18:29Sir, we could handle the death notification
18:31to see if Celia might shed some light on what our DB was doing in that house.
18:35All right, go ahead.
18:36I'll have Harper and Thorson work the sniper with Branson.
18:39Nyla! Hey!
18:41James! What are you doing here?
18:43Oh, just picking up a few things for the community center.
18:46I asked the same of you, but I have a good guess.
18:49Yeah, I came for the coffee, stayed for the sniper.
18:53This is my new rookie, Officer Aaron Thorson.
18:56Yeah, I remember your case.
18:59Man, I'm so sorry for everything you went through.
19:01Thanks.
19:02I happen to work with a lot of people who've been wrongfully incarcerated.
19:05It can help to talk to a therapist.
19:07I have some names if you need them.
19:08I appreciate that, but I already go twice a week.
19:11Okay, good.
19:13Well, you are very lucky to have this impressive woman as your training officer.
19:17Don't let her bite scare you.
19:19She got a lot of heart.
19:20Now, why would you go and tell him that?
19:22Just to make your job that much harder.
19:24Uh-huh.
19:25We are going out again soon, right?
19:27You know it.
19:28All right. Good.
19:31Take care of yourself.
19:37What?
19:38Nothing.
19:39Good.
19:41Triple D's got gang.
19:43Yeah.
19:44It doesn't make sense.
19:46Nelson went for a jog to the beach.
19:48What was he doing near Griffith Park?
19:50How did he even get there?
19:51There's evidence that the house he was found in is a place people go to use drugs.
19:55No.
19:56Nelson was clean.
19:58Four years.
19:59Addicts relapse, and they lie about it.
20:03I know.
20:04I am one.
20:05If my husband was using again, I would have seen the signs.
20:09Something happened to him.
20:11Promise me you won't just play blame the addict.
20:15I promise you we will follow this case where it leads.
20:20If you can think of anything else, please call us, day or night.
20:24And again, I am truly sorry for your loss.
20:32You think she's in denial?
20:34Maybe.
20:35She would be nice to get some clarity.
20:38Hopefully the autopsy will give us that.
20:40All right. Thanks for checking.
20:43Intelligence saying that Michael Silver isn't on their radar.
20:46How's that possible?
20:48No way a guy who gets popped by an elite sniper is squeaky clean.
20:51He's got to have some criminal connection.
20:53I'm going to call records.
20:54Maybe they have some information.
20:55It's a waste of time.
20:56I'll call L.A. Clear when we get back to the station.
20:58Right.
21:01Weird case, huh?
21:03Oh, yeah.
21:06I'm good with weird.
21:08I'm a manx.
21:11I'm sorry.
21:12You're a what?
21:13A manx.
21:15A manx cat.
21:17That's my feline breed.
21:19That's my cat personality.
21:21What your cat personalities are?
21:23Did Chin put you up to this?
21:25Put me up to what?
21:29Whoa.
21:30Oh, with the smell?
21:32Yeah, it smells like month-old eggs and maggot meat.
21:35I mean, you don't have to go in, but this is part of the job.
21:40No, I'm good.
21:41Can I just have a sec?
21:42Oh, yeah.
21:43No, gather yourself.
21:44Because what awaits smells like a septic tank filled with tumors.
21:48Okay.
21:49I see what you're doing.
21:51This is payback for me trying to get too familiar early.
21:54But you know what?
21:55It's all good.
21:56I can handle it.
21:57I'm just going to have to cancel my reservation at Eliza and Electra tonight
22:01because there's no way I'm eating after this.
22:03What, are you crazy?
22:04You have to book that place, like, six months in advance.
22:07I dream of eating there.
22:09You want the reservation?
22:11Seriously?
22:12Yeah.
22:13It's yours if you stop torturing me.
22:17Deal.
22:18Yeah.
22:20I mean, the only question is, which boy toy are you taking?
22:23Is it going to be the speed demon from this morning
22:25or the upright citizen from this afternoon?
22:29I mean, unless there's a third choice.
22:30No, it's James.
22:32It's definitely James.
22:33But he's probably busy.
22:36Text him and find out.
22:41All right, fine.
22:55Oh, no.
22:57The vanishing three dots.
22:58That was the worst.
23:01He's probably going to respond later.
23:03Let's get back to work.
23:04Right.
23:11Detective, nice to see you.
23:14Judging by the long sleeves and queasy demeanor,
23:16I'd say you have a new rookie.
23:18Yeah, Dr. Lowell meet Officer Thorson.
23:22Of course.
23:23Now I recognize you.
23:24You know, I have to say that the forensic work in your case
23:27seemed pretty solid.
23:28You're lucky the precinct set you free.
23:30I'm lucky the appeals court understood
23:32that forensic science can be as corrupt
23:34as the rest of law enforcement.
23:38First autopsy?
23:40Yeah.
23:41Smear this under your nose.
23:42It'll help with the smell.
23:44I'm surprised your T.O. didn't tell you.
23:46I can't give away all my secrets in the first week.
23:48Doc?
23:50So you get anything useful from the autopsy?
23:53Yeah, I found this lodged in his T4 vertebra.
23:56Looks like it's from a .223.
24:00Yeah, possible 77 grain.
24:03Also known as NATO rounds for the full metal jackets.
24:06Yeah, very heavy and very lethal.
24:08And a skilled marksman's hands.
24:10Yeah, to make a long-distance shot from a .223 round
24:14would require a specialized weapon,
24:16which would seem to confirm that our shooter
24:18had military training.
24:20Oh, hey.
24:22Wait a minute.
24:23She gave you the menthol on your first visit?
24:25No, the doc did.
24:28All right, here's all yours.
24:30Let's go get you a ginger ale.
24:32And you're here for?
24:34Nelson Crespo.
24:35Yes, the burn victim.
24:36You know, you keep running into conflagrations
24:38without oxygen masks, and you'll end up in one of my drawers.
24:40Yeah, we've been told.
24:42So you got anything on Crespo?
24:44Well, I'm still writing up my preliminary findings.
24:46But I did see something unexpected in his x-rays.
24:49He had a transverse fracture to his left femur
24:52and compound fractures to his pelvis.
24:54From when the ceiling fell in on him?
24:56No.
24:57Actually, the fractures were perimortem.
24:59Likely occurred an hour before his death.
25:01That doesn't make any sense.
25:02He would have been in agony.
25:04What explained why he got caught in the fire, he said?
25:06He didn't say.
25:08There was no carbon monoxide in his blood or soot in his lungs.
25:11Nelson Crespo was dead before the fire even started.
25:17I hope you and James like the restaurant.
25:19Well, actually, he never replied,
25:22so it looks like I will be going by myself.
25:25How about invite the other guy, Alonzo?
25:28No.
25:29Trust me, this place is romantic.
25:31And you're not going to want to eat there alone?
25:33No.
25:38Oh, Harper.
25:39Hey.
25:40Any leads on the sniper?
25:41No.
25:42Detectives are on it.
25:43OK.
25:44When you catch him, ask him where he gets his gear.
25:46What are you going to do with a zip line?
25:48You know how far it is to my parking spot.
25:51Oh, Angela.
25:52Ask her about it, baby.
25:54Hey, how's Jack?
25:56You can find out for yourself if you come over and babysit.
25:59Both our moms bailed.
26:01It's for you.
26:04Thank you so much for doing this.
26:06Of course.
26:07It's our pleasure.
26:08Where is that little rascal?
26:10Wesley's putting him down.
26:12Oh, look at him.
26:13Aw.
26:15Wait, did you start smoking?
26:16You can't smoke around the baby.
26:18Please, come on.
26:19No, I walked into a house fire yesterday
26:21instead of waiting for the fire department,
26:23which is what I should have done.
26:25Mm-hmm.
26:26It's turning into quite an interesting case, actually.
26:29At first, we thought the guy who started the fire died in it,
26:32but the autopsy shows he was dead before it started.
26:35Yeah, with a crushed pelvis.
26:36No one knows how he got it or where.
26:38Any witnesses?
26:39A transient with clear mental health issues
26:42that we pulled out of the house.
26:43He said he heard voices before the fire started.
26:45Heard voices or heard voices?
26:47That's what we said,
26:48but given the condition our victim was in before he died,
26:50I think our transient actually heard our killer.
26:53Okay, baby's asleep.
26:54Let's go before he realizes we're gone.
26:55Hi.
26:56Hi.
26:57Bye.
26:58Later.
26:59Don't call us.
27:00Of course.
27:01All right.
27:02So...
27:03What shall we do first?
27:06Order food or...
27:09make out?
27:10Order first and make out while we wait.
27:13See? That's what I like about you.
27:15You're always thinking.
27:16That's what you like about me?
27:17Well, there's more, and I could show you,
27:19but I'm on a schedule right now.
27:20I have to order dinner.
27:21How dare you play hard to get?
27:23Ooh, and the sweet corn fried rice.
27:26Hell yeah.
27:27And our meatballs.
27:28Ooh, two orders.
27:30And ooh, the beet salad.
27:34Thanks.
27:36This is nice.
27:38This is amazing.
27:39Mm.
27:40Mm.
27:41Ah.
27:42Did you hear Nolan talking about his murder case?
27:45It sounded challenging in an interesting way.
27:49Mm-hmm.
27:50What? It does.
27:51Angela, this is our first date in months.
27:53I know, but what's more fun than dinner and a murder?
27:57I know murder.
27:58Is that Nyla?
28:01I guess that's why she couldn't babysit.
28:03Mm-hmm.
28:10Oh, my God.
28:12Ooh, I think I'm a little underdressed.
28:15Oh, man, it's L.A.
28:17I've seen people wear flip-flops
28:18to Michelin-star restaurants.
28:20No one even blinked.
28:22I'm actually mean somewhere.
28:24Nyla.
28:25Hey.
28:26You know her?
28:27She's my date.
28:29No, she's my date.
28:32Ha-ha.
28:33Actually, you are both my dates.
28:39Funny story.
28:40Oh, no, she double-booked.
28:42You did not respond to my texts.
28:44Yes, I'm pretty sure that I did.
28:47Ooh.
28:48Uh-oh.
28:49No, no.
28:50I guess I never hit send.
28:52And then you called me.
28:55Your second option.
28:57It's okay.
28:58Enough said.
28:59She's all yours.
29:00No, Alonzo, wait.
29:01You know what?
29:02I think I'm gonna go, too.
29:03Really?
29:04We can't just stay and have some wine
29:05and talk about it?
29:07No, I've acted like I'm cool
29:09with being one of two guys you're dating
29:11because I like you so much.
29:14Well, that and I thought one day
29:16you might actually pick me.
29:18James, I...
29:19It's just a little hard on the ego, so...
29:23Enjoy the rest of your night.
29:26By the way...
29:29You look amazing.
29:35Uh, that was brutal.
29:38I'm gonna go invite her to sit with us.
29:41Wait, are you crazy?
29:42Let her go.
29:43Pretend it didn't happen.
29:45Counselor.
29:48What a nice surprise.
29:52Yeah.
29:53Angela, this is my client, Elijah.
29:56And silent partner in this fine establishment.
30:00Aren't the meatballs to die for?
30:02They're great.
30:03Will you excuse me for a minute?
30:05Of course.
30:09What the hell are you doing?
30:10It is a crime how easy it is
30:13to hack a baby monitor.
30:17You're making a mistake.
30:19Threatening us.
30:20I don't make threats.
30:21I make promises.
30:22And I always follow through.
30:24Just like I expect you to.
30:26From this moment on,
30:27whatever line I need you to cross,
30:29you will cross it.
30:30Whoever I tell you to represent,
30:32you'll take them on as a client.
30:33And if I need you to betray their interest
30:35in my benefit, you'll do it.
30:37I'll get disbarred.
30:39But only if you get caught.
30:40This is what you agreed to trade
30:42for your wife and child.
30:44And you do not want to default on this debt.
30:51Oh, and you got to order the pot to crimp.
30:55You're sinful.
30:58Jen.
30:59Hmm?
31:00If you want the job,
31:02all you got to do is ask.
31:04What?
31:05You sabotaged Webb.
31:07I don't know what you're talking about.
31:09His career's gone to hell.
31:11He's just a snitch.
31:12And you're just a third party.
31:14He's a snitch.
31:15He's a snitch.
31:16He's a snitch.
31:17I'm not a snitch.
31:18I'm a snitch.
31:19No, you're not.
31:20You're a snitch.
31:21I'm not a snitch.
31:22I'm a snitch.
31:23I'm a snitch.
31:24I'm a snitch.
31:25I'm a snitch.
31:26What are you talking about?
31:27His cat personality?
31:28Yeah.
31:29Well, that's got you bitten all over.
31:30Look, if you want me to ride with you, you don't need to make up an excuse.
31:34Just ask me.
31:35Good morning.
31:36Should we have a clearer understanding of yesterday's sniper shooting?
31:41According to the gang unit, the victim had a falling out with Elijah Stone.
31:46So it was a contract killing?
31:47Looks like it.
31:48Gangs put together a list of potential shooters that Elijah might use.
31:52We ran it against military personnel records and came up with a dozen names.
31:57And you guessed it, detectives want patrol to do the initial campus.
32:01So let's get to work.
32:04Oh, oh, one more thing.
32:06Sergeant.
32:07Yeah, um, I've decided to spread the love and give someone else a chance to be my gopher
32:14today.
32:15Smitty, you're up.
32:16Seriously?
32:17I'm sorry, you have something to add, Officer Chen?
32:22No.
32:23It's her.
32:24All right.
32:25That's it.
32:26Be safe out there.
32:29Sarge, the job doesn't require any heavy lifting, right?
32:35I've got a tricky back.
32:37No.
32:38No lifting required.
32:39Including the war bags, right?
32:40Yes, Smitty, I'll get the bags.
32:45How was the restaurant?
32:48What happened?
32:49They both showed up.
32:52No.
32:53Oh, yes.
32:54Yesterday I was dating two cute guys, and today, zero.
32:58Well, it had to end at some point, right?
33:01I mean, if you cared about one of them, you would have made a decision a while ago.
33:05I liked the freedom.
33:07It was fun being able to take it slow.
33:11But?
33:14But I just, I can't get the look on James' face out of my head.
33:22And who's our next contestant?
33:25Aiden Merritt, 32, one tour in Afghanistan, followed by six years as a private contractor.
33:30Any priors?
33:31A couple domestic complaints in Houston, an ex-girlfriend, but nothing since he moved to L.A.
33:37Hey.
33:38Aiden Merritt?
33:39Yeah, that's me.
33:40What were you doing yesterday at noon?
33:43That's an ominous question.
33:46Why do you want to know?
33:47There was a sniper shooting yesterday.
33:48Oh, yeah, yeah, no, I did see that on the news.
33:51And because of my background, yeah, I get why you want to see me.
33:54The answer to your question actually has some irony to it, though, because yesterday afternoon
33:58I was actually at the gun club downtown.
34:00Well, that's good news.
34:01You got any proof of that?
34:03I might still have a receipt for some ammo I bought.
34:07I could go look.
34:09Mind if we step inside?
34:11Yeah, yeah, I do.
34:13But I'll be right back out.
34:16I am getting a vibe.
34:18You getting a vibe?
34:19Big time vibe.
34:21Smart about that alibi, though.
34:22Gives him a reason to be in the vicinity.
34:27Lucy, I'm looking at a rifle.
34:29That gives us probable cause.
34:35I told you to wait outside.
34:37Sir?
34:38I need you to show us your hands.
34:40Come on, man, this is a mistake.
34:42I got the receipt.
34:44Come on, man, this is a mistake.
34:45I got the receipt right here.
34:46Yes, sir, and we will get to that.
34:47But right now, my partner asked you to show us your hands.
34:52You really don't want me to do that?
34:53Yes, we do.
34:55Nice and slow.
34:57Okay.
35:02I already pulled the pin in the bedroom.
35:04I was planning to frag your car when you got back in Split Town before the smoke cleared,
35:08but yeah, now you've forced the issue.
35:12You didn't survive a tour just to die like this.
35:14It's better than going to prison.
35:16Now, put down your guns, or we can all learn what shrapnel tastes like.
35:25Okay.
35:27Fine, you win.
35:28What are you doing?
35:29You're a better shot than me, but I'm a little quicker on my feet.
35:31Nolan?
35:32You got a better plan?
35:33What the hell are you two talking about?
35:35A fuse on a grenade takes approximately four seconds to detonate.
35:39He thinks if I shoot you in the medulla, he'll have enough time to grab the grenade
35:42after you drop it and throw it outside before it explodes.
35:45Nolan?
35:46Actually, I was planning on kicking it back into the house.
35:48Where he probably has more grenades?
35:51You're right.
35:52Change of plan.
36:09Spoon's still attached.
36:10We're good.
36:12What?
36:13It worked.
36:14Seven out of fifteen.
36:15Requesting backup and a supervisor on our location.
36:16And the bomb squad.
36:17Please, can you take that outside while we wait?
36:18That's right.
36:19Seven out of fifteen.
36:20We're also going to need a bomb squad.
36:21Hello?
36:22Where the hell are all the baby monitors?
36:23Um, I don't know.
36:24I don't know.
36:25I don't know.
36:26I don't know.
36:27I don't know.
36:28I don't know.
36:29I don't know.
36:30I don't know.
36:31I don't know.
36:32I don't know.
36:33I don't know.
36:34I don't know.
36:35I don't know.
36:36I don't know.
36:37I don't know.
36:39Um, I threw them out.
36:40What?
36:41Why?
36:42There was a safety recall fire hazard.
36:45We can get new ones.
36:47Higher tech.
36:48Okay.
36:49Good catch.
36:50Babe, I gotta go.
36:55Secretary wasn't at her desk, so I figured I'd just pop in.
36:59Yeah, sure.
37:00What can I do for you?
37:03Loving this new attitude, counselor.
37:05It's just the right balance between confidence and obsequiousness.
37:11I need you to deliver this to your new client.
37:16What new client?
37:35I'm Wesley Evers.
37:38I'll be representing you.
37:39It's about friggin' time.
37:43Give it to me straight.
37:45How screwed am I?
37:48Well, we'll get to that.
37:51First, I have something for you.
37:54Ah.
37:56He hesitates.
37:58You must be new to working with our friends.
38:00Still in that phase where you think you have free will.
38:04Let me guess.
38:05You took an oath to uphold the law and not break it.
38:08So now you're torn.
38:10Do you possibly aid an abetted crime by giving me whatever's in that envelope?
38:14I mean, the very act of passing it to me is a likely ethics violation,
38:19which could get you disbarred.
38:21And yet, you wouldn't be here if you had a choice, would you?
38:34Actually, it's for you.
38:45You're lucky.
38:47If you fail one of Elijah's tests, you end up as fertilizer.
38:50So, how do you plan to get me out of this mess?
38:58I'm sorry.
39:02How's it going, Sarge?
39:05Fine.
39:08How come Smitty's not doing the paperwork?
39:13He claims to be allergic to paper.
39:16That's not funny.
39:18You should have just asked me.
39:20I was doing the paperwork.
39:23I'm not doing the paperwork.
39:26I'm not doing the paperwork.
39:29I was doing you a favor.
39:32How? By telling the entire station that you would rather ride with Smitty than me, your old boot?
39:38Look, some would see it as a demotion for you.
39:41I'm back with your training officer.
39:43Others might read something else into it.
39:47Why? Because I'm a girl and you're a boy?
39:51A very handsome boy.
39:53Oh, gag. Look, I really appreciate the intention.
39:57But screw what anyone else thinks.
39:59Being a sergeant's aide would...
40:01Go for it.
40:03Aide would make me stand out come promotion time.
40:07That alone makes it worth putting up with your Tim Tests and old school code of honor again.
40:15So, are you saying you want the job?
40:18If you're saying you want me to do it.
40:22What the hell? Let's do it.
40:26You get here an hour before roll call tomorrow and I'll get you up to speed on all the new protocols.
40:31Will do.
40:35You're welcome.
40:36Good luck with your paperwork.
40:41James.
40:45What are you doing here?
40:47Well, Aaron asked me to come by. He said he needed to talk to me.
40:51That was a lie. I'm straight up playing matchmaker.
40:53Boo. I don't...
40:54Hold on, hold on. I'm just trying to do what I can to fix the mess that I caused.
40:57You were kind to me yesterday when we met, so I feel compelled to return the favor.
41:01The second that I offered Detective Harper my reservation, she invited you.
41:06And when you didn't respond, she was gonna go alone.
41:10But I pushed her to invite the other guy.
41:14You know how close to the vest she plays things.
41:18I can still see how upset she was when she saw that she hurt you.
41:21So, maybe, I don't know, give her a second chance.
41:26I'll see you tomorrow.
41:33Is that all true?
41:35Yeah.
41:39I'm sorry I messed everything up.
41:43Okay.
41:47You can take me to dinner.
41:49I can?
41:50Yes, you can.
41:51Okay.
41:52But, if there's anything on the menu that I need to Google to figure out what it is, I'm walking.
41:59No. You never have that.
42:01No, no, no. Can't do that. Refuse. Refuse.
42:03I've been thinking about your arson case.
42:05You kill someone, you set a fire to cover it up. Pretty standard move.
42:09What's strange is the broken bones.
42:13So, I ran a search and found two recent unsolved cases with similar M.O.'s.
42:17Both in Nevada. Both suffered broken legs before dying in a fire.
42:21Three murders with the same twisted M.O.
42:24We've got a serial killer on our hands.
42:42Damn it.
