01:42You're late as in?
01:43Yeah.
01:44Oh boy.
01:45Or girl.
01:46How late?
01:47Three days.
01:48Okay, that doesn't necessarily mean you're pregnant.
01:49There are two things in this world that always run on time.
01:51Swiss watches and my cycle.
01:54Right.
01:56Okay.
01:59First, we should be absolutely sure.
02:01Yes, okay.
02:02I've got a staff meeting first thing this morning,
02:05but I'll pick up a test on the way in,
02:08and I'll call you as soon as I know.
02:10And no matter what happens,
02:13we'll make the best of this.
02:15Okay.
02:24I mean, talk about terrible timing.
02:26Though, Henry was born at a less than ideal time,
02:29and he's the best thing that's ever happened to me.
02:31Not that I'm saying I hope she's pregnant.
02:33Not that I'm saying I hope she's not pregnant.
02:37What am I saying?
02:39I just wish she would call.
02:41How hard is it to pee on a stick?
02:43I'm sorry, are you talking to me?
02:45What's going on?
02:47Roll call.
02:49Is everything all right?
02:50A hundred percent.
03:04Nice of you to finally deign to sit with us.
03:06Nah, the front row is too close to the boss.
03:09Lopez still up?
03:10Yeah, taking care of Wesley.
03:12She's got him back on his feet.
03:13Good.
03:14Okay, listen up.
03:16Why is community policing important?
03:19Officer Chin.
03:20Because it builds trust between the police and the public,
03:23leading to a reduction in crime.
03:25Exactly.
03:26And today we're going to do a little trust building.
03:28Officer Nolan,
03:29did you know Dr. Sawyer at Shaw Memorial?
03:31Oh, we went to the same college, sir.
03:33Before I got my now ex-pregnant my son in.
03:35It was a yes or no question, Nolan.
03:37Sorry, sir. Yes, I know.
03:38Good.
03:39She requested an officer to assist with a seminar.
03:41You're going.
03:42What kind of seminar?
03:43Don't know, don't care.
03:44Whatever it is, it's open to the public.
03:46Which means you have a chance to show the community
03:48that the LAPD does more than just lock up people.
03:51We do?
03:52That's not funny.
03:54And you don't want to piss me off, Bradford,
03:56considering what I have lined up for you.
03:58What's that?
03:59Watts Rams need additional coaches for their fall clinic.
04:02And you're going to need company.
04:05Officer West,
04:07your dad is always bragging
04:09how you're a high school football star.
04:11Is he lying?
04:12No, sir.
04:13All-state safety four years running.
04:15I could actually pull up my highlight reel
04:17if you want to check it out.
04:18It's on my YouTube channel.
04:20That won't be necessary.
04:21Change into your PTs, head out with Bradford.
04:23Hopper and Chin,
04:25you will serve as liaisons
04:27to the Mid-Wilshire Community Council.
04:29They're coming in for a sit-down.
04:31What is this, the 1950s?
04:32The boys go to football practice
04:34while us girls attend a PTA meeting?
04:36Fair point.
04:38Guess there's really only one way to settle this.
04:42Challenge coins.
04:50Chief gave me mine personally.
04:52That was nice.
04:53Mine was given to me by the governor.
04:55What is a challenge coin?
04:57How do you not know that?
04:58It's a medallion bearing an organization's insignia.
05:01Given only to those deemed worthy.
05:03They're used to show respect
05:05or settle minor disputes.
05:07Okay.
05:09Closest to the edge wins.
05:11All right.
05:35Hopper, football's all yours.
05:37Nah, Bradford can have it.
05:39You gotta be kidding me.
05:40Only football I watch is English.
05:42Whatever.
05:44Community Council will be here in 20.
05:46Ma'am, would you like me to prepare anything for the meeting?
05:49Uh, coffee.
05:50Black. Officer Chin.
05:52You know, the only name I know is Nolans
05:54and you are not him,
05:55so today you are not Nolan.
06:00Not Nolan.
06:01It's often how I think of you.
06:03Funny.
06:04Do you have any advice on how to get on her good side?
06:06I actually don't know that she has one,
06:07so good luck.
06:11Shaking out on me like ice in a glass
06:14Looking so dangerous like snake in the grass
06:16Make me wanna check my pocket for a dip in the sash
06:19Flying up real high like we in first class
06:21Oh, oh, oh, oh
06:24Hey, nice move.
06:26Woo, great pants.
06:28That is AJ.
06:30Most pure talent on the team.
06:31Kid's gonna get recruited hard.
06:33Oh, we don't care about that.
06:34When AJ joins us, his grades are in the trash.
06:36Now he's on honor roll, wants to go to college.
06:38That's what we care about.
06:43Hey, you, uh, you like that move?
06:45It's all right against a 12-year-old.
06:47You're gonna have to up your footwork
06:48when you get to real competition, though.
06:49Nah, I run footwork drills every morning.
06:51I'll be ready.
06:52And at night?
06:53I'm catching drills.
06:54Harder to see the ball
06:55increases hand-eye coordination.
06:56Any other questions?
06:57No, not at this time.
06:59AJ.
07:01What is she doing here?
07:03I'll be right back.
07:05His mom just got released a few months ago.
07:08Transition's been rough on both of them.
07:10What was she in for?
07:11Armed robbery.
07:12Pretty serious crew.
07:13Come on.
07:14Awesome.
07:15Good serve, Weddle, man.
07:16Weddle, Weddle.
07:17Oh, yes, yes.
07:18You got it.
07:19Oh, man.
07:20Yeah, man.
07:21You're so good.
07:22That's right.
07:23Hey, can we play?
07:25Weddle.
07:26Tim Bradford.
07:27Is that you?
07:28You know him?
07:29Man, we played against each other in high school.
07:32I sacked Bradford so hard in the championship game,
07:35he decided Fallujah was better than turning pro.
07:38Smart man.
07:39The NFL's only getting harder and faster.
07:41You're Robert Woods.
07:42I have your USC jersey at home.
07:44Me too?
07:45Hey, man.
07:46Good to have you back in L.A., bro.
07:47Good to be back.
07:48All right.
07:49Great.
07:50Thanks, guy.
07:53Yo, you just bro-hug Eric Weddle.
07:55Don't make it weird.
07:57No, it's not about what you want.
07:58I got to do what I think is best.
07:59Oh, now it's about what you want,
08:00but I don't want to go.
08:01Everything okay?
08:02A.J.'s dropping football.
08:04We got a lot going on right now.
08:06Come on.
08:12Tops, and then we go do real police work.
08:15Oh, I see why you chose this.
08:17Lowest impact on her day.
08:19Yep, community meetings are quick and easy.
08:21Just don't promise them anything.
08:23Whatever the complaint, just nod and say,
08:26we are aware of the problem,
08:28and we have a task force working on it.
08:30Oh, a task force?
08:31Yeah, these busybody types love it when cops say task force.
08:34Okay, well, I'll just follow your lead.
08:36Oh, I'm not talking. You are.
08:38What?
08:39I don't do community meetings.
08:44Go on.
08:45Yeah.
08:46Okay.
08:50Hi, I'm Officer Lucy Chen,
08:52and the Mid-Wilshire Police Station
08:54is proud to partner with you today.
08:56There's no partnering with us
08:57until first partnering with the Earth.
08:59What's LAPD doing about the city's
09:01lack of drought-tolerant plants?
09:03Oh, yes.
09:04We are aware of this problem,
09:06and we have a task force working on it.
09:08Oh.
09:10Sweet.
09:11Officer, can you do something about my neighbor?
09:15He's constantly feeding the squirrels.
09:17Uh, yes.
09:19We have a task force working on that.
09:23A squirrel task force?
09:25Yes, ma'am.
09:26This is serious.
09:27I have coyotes, and I have small dogs,
09:29and any time I try to talk to my neighbor,
09:31he's just hateful.
09:33I'm scared for the safety of my babies.
09:35Yeah, uh, listen,
09:36why don't you give me his address,
09:39and I'll make sure that the task force is following up.
09:42Is there a task force for abandoned cars?
09:45There's one in front of my apartment.
09:47I'll give you my address.
09:51Hey, Jess, it's me.
09:52I thought it would hurt to meet by now.
09:54Are you still in your meeting?
09:55Are you having trouble peeing?
09:56Because the trick is to, you know, I gotta go.
09:58Call me when you know.
09:59Hey, John.
10:00Hey.
10:01Appreciate you doing this.
10:02My pleasure.
10:03What are we doing?
10:04We didn't tell you?
10:05No.
10:06We're hosting our monthly free seminar.
10:07Great, for who?
10:08Pregnant mothers.
10:12What's wrong?
10:13Uh, nothing.
10:14I couldn't be more excited.
10:16How's Wesley?
10:18Driving me crazy.
10:19He was stabbed.
10:20Well, yeah,
10:21but it's not like any major organs were damaged.
10:23God, I miss cop humor.
10:25Corporate world is so buttoned up,
10:27everyone's always running scared of HR.
10:29Is Stabby here?
10:31No.
10:32His mom took him to physical therapy.
10:33I was planning a spa day
10:34until you said I could make two grand for eight hours' time.
10:36Yep, and trust me,
10:37you're gonna love working private security.
10:39I've done some moonlighting,
10:40but nothing fancy like this.
10:42Who am I guarding?
10:43Mangus Kemp.
10:44He's a high-end jewelry broker from Vegas.
10:46Comes to L.A. every month to buy diamonds.
10:48You'll keep him safe while our driver runs you around town.
10:50Anything else I need to know about the protectee?
10:52He thinks he's a player,
10:53inherited the business from his dad,
10:54he'll hit on you a little, but he's mostly harmless.
10:57Okay, uh...
10:58So he'll get paid if he gets killed, right?
11:00Yeah.
11:01I wouldn't let him know that, though.
11:10Hello, Ms. Clemons.
11:12I'm Officer Bradford.
11:13This is Officer West.
11:14We met at the, uh...
11:15I-I remember. What do you want?
11:16Just want to make sure everything's all right.
11:17Pulled A.J. off the team so fast,
11:18wanted to make sure there wasn't a problem.
11:20No problem. Thanks for stopping by.
11:22Everything okay, buddy?
11:23He's fine.
11:24How about you?
11:25You seem to be moving out in a hurry.
11:27Something going on?
11:28Um, this is none of your damn business.
11:30Actually, it is, Ms. Clemons.
11:31You're still on parole for armed robbery.
11:33Your P.O. know you're moving?
11:34So what, you gonna violate me?
11:35Oh, nobody wants that.
11:36We're just here to help.
11:43Get down! Get down!
11:45Get down!
11:50Patrol 7 out of 19,
11:51we have a 246 with a firebomb at our location.
11:54Two masked suspects blinked south on Gramercy
11:56in a blackened Harlem.
12:04So you have no idea who they were?
12:06Not a clue.
12:07Oh, come on, Ms. Clemons.
12:08Two masked suspects in a Molotov cocktail.
12:10Like, that wasn't some random act of violence.
12:12You were targeted.
12:13Tell me why.
12:14Tell me why.
12:15Am I under arrest?
12:17Of course not.
12:18Then can I go?
12:22Not yet.
12:23Like, I just need to list some personal property
12:24that was damaged during the fire.
12:25Hey, man.
12:26Hit me.
12:31I wasn't gonna say it earlier,
12:32but, uh, you got some serious talent.
12:35You're running drills every morning on your own.
12:37You clearly love the sport.
12:38Yes, sir.
12:40I, uh, take this ball with me everywhere I go.
12:44Sounds like me.
12:46In some ways, this game saved me.
12:49How?
12:53You know, growing up, my house was a bit chaotic.
12:58Yeah, I...
12:59I know a little something about that.
13:01My old man had a hair trigger.
13:03Never knew what would set him off.
13:05And football was the only place I had any control.
13:10Yeah, I, uh...
13:11I know a little something about that, too.
13:13Football taught me discipline, teamwork,
13:16and it wasn't just a game.
13:19Yeah?
13:20And, uh, what game are we playing right now, huh?
13:23We connect over sports,
13:24and then I talk about my mom behind her back?
13:29I'd never ask you to do that.
13:32But, look, if you ever need anything,
13:35just let me know, all right?
13:41You're too pretty to be a cop.
13:43Sir, I think we should keep this professional.
13:46Of course, of course.
13:47How about a selfie?
13:48Sorry, that would compromise security.
13:50Right, right.
13:51Yeah.
13:52No, I'm, you know, I knew that.
13:54That was, that was, that was a test.
13:56Hey, you want to see something?
14:04By the end of today,
14:05By the end of today,
14:06this will be filled with two million in diamonds, Angela.
14:11You ever seen two million before?
14:14Saw ten times that on a drug raid in a cartel stash house.
14:18Had a bunch of brains scattered across it, though.
14:23Cool.
14:27Control, seven item 15, show us premise check, code six.
14:31Copy that.
14:35Okay, so, according to Mr. Elson,
14:39there are vagrants squatting in the storm drain.
14:42Great job.
14:44We are about to go fishing in the armpit of Los Angeles,
14:47full of the complete hepatitis alphabet,
14:50not to mention rats.
14:52You first.
14:53Okay, it's disgusting,
14:54but isn't the whole point of community policing to...
14:56No, not Nolan.
14:57The whole point of any kind of policing
14:59is to do what I tell you.
15:02Trust me, you don't want to be good at community policing.
15:05Why?
15:06Once the higher-ups see it,
15:07then running community meetings will be all they will ever let you do.
15:12Okay.
15:30LAPD, anyone in here?
15:42Oh.
16:03Where were they smoking?
16:06Uh, it smells like burned donuts from a plastic oven.
16:09That's definitely meth.
16:11And the pipe's still warm.
16:13Keep your eyes open.
16:14Mm-hmm.
16:21Clear.
16:27Clear.
16:29Aah!
16:37Are you okay?
16:40Behind you!
16:58Hook him up!
16:59Yeah.
17:05Got me good.
17:07Forget what I said earlier.
17:09Community meetings are clearly all you are good for.
17:28Yes?
17:29Um, if the dad was doing drugs when we made my baby...
17:33There's no evidence that a father's addiction affects the baby.
17:37Okay, thank you.
17:39You're welcome.
17:41Okay, now it's time to introduce Officer Nolan.
17:45John?
17:46Yes?
17:47Officer Nolan is going to show you how to properly install an infant's car seat.
17:51Yes, I will.
17:52Yeah.
17:53You can't do that?
17:54No, I mean, pregnant mothers feel more comfortable
17:55when it comes from a police officer.
17:56Really?
17:57It'll get me started.
17:58Nine years to become a doctor and they'd trust a handsome cop more.
18:00Well, to be fair, a handsome cop in super cool uniform.
18:03Hi, guys.
18:04Hi.
18:05I'm, uh, Officer Nolan.
18:07And, um, uh, car seats are the safest way
18:10to transport your soon-to-be bundles of joy,
18:13and it's the law.
18:15So, uh, installation is super simple.
18:19We're gonna start with the base.
18:20Guys, they make this stuff just idiot-proof.
18:23It's backwards.
18:24And it's...
18:25It's... This is forwards, which, of course, is wrong
18:27because you want it backwards.
18:28The baby has to face the...
18:29Again, guys, idiot-proof.
18:31So, simply take these security straps and use the...
18:37I think the word that you're looking for is latch.
18:40Latch. Yes.
18:41I'm so sorry. I have to take this call.
18:42It can't wait?
18:43It...
18:44It really can't.
18:45Um, what's... What...
18:47Yes. Hey.
18:48What's going on?
18:49Um...
18:50No, no, I'm whispering because I'm right in the middle of a thing.
18:52Right.
18:53No, no, you can't just...
18:54Get over here.
18:55You can't be here.
18:56Get up. Get up.
18:57No, they can't be here.
18:58The charge is set.
18:59Shane, Mike, let her go.
19:00Back off. This is between us.
19:08Oh, get over.
19:09Give me your hands.
19:10Are you okay?
19:11Yeah, thank you.
19:15You're gonna need stitches.
19:23Thanks.
19:29Something on your mind?
19:31No, ma'am.
19:32Yeah, that's what I thought.
19:34You're wrong about me.
19:36Uh, no, I'm not.
19:38I can do so much more than just community meetings.
19:40You're right. You're probably really good at paperwork.
19:43But you can't fight.
19:44I can fight.
19:46I've gone toe-to-toe with plenty of suspects and won.
19:49Not that one.
19:50He's huge.
19:51And yet I took him and his buddy.
19:57You want to hit me right now, don't you?
20:00Yeah, I see it in your eyes.
20:03Someone a little more your size?
20:07Well, come on.
20:09What?
20:10Hit me, not Nolan. That is an order.
20:16Do it for real.
20:18Come for me like that tweaker came for you.
20:22Now!
20:28Stay down.
20:29And get used to that position.
20:31Because in case you didn't know, you are not a six-foot-two, 180-pound man.
20:36Now, Tim might be a good T.O., but he can't teach you how to fight like a girl.
20:40We get a higher show of force, especially from men.
20:43So guess what, sweetheart? You are always going to be tested.
20:47And when you are alone against a desperate suspect,
20:50and you are between them and freedom, your thoughts can never be,
20:54Oh my, he's bigger than me.
21:08Look here, not Nolan.
21:10If you are going to survive these streets as a five-foot-six woman and one of color, no less,
21:16you better learn what these boys don't know to teach.
21:21Come on.
21:29You ever think about having another kid?
21:31I did for the first three or four years after Oliver was born.
21:34And what happened?
21:35I've spent too much time in emergency rooms.
21:38I don't have to tell you. There's so much tragedy out there.
21:42I just, I can't bring another life into it.
21:47Jess!
21:49Hey.
21:50Hey.
21:51I couldn't get in touch with you, so I called Gray, and you said you were here.
21:53Oh my God, what happened?
21:55Just a knife fight, no big deal. Are you okay?
21:57I'm going to leave you two alone. It's nice seeing you again.
21:59Yes, yes, you as well.
22:02Uh, I'm sorry it took so long.
22:05I just, uh, I needed to have some time. It's a process.
22:10No, okay. No, I get it. I see.
22:12Um, so are you pregnant?
22:16No, I'm not.
22:19Okay. Okay, yeah, that's great too.
22:22But I want to be.
22:30I'm sorry, you're going to have to help me out here a little bit, Jessica. I'm a little confused.
22:34Yes, well, I was too at first.
22:36And when I took the pregnancy test and it came back negative, I was just, I was so disappointed.
22:41And I, I, I couldn't shake it.
22:43I couldn't shake it.
22:44No, I, okay, um, it's just a little surprising.
22:48I know. I was, I was surprised too.
22:50Look, I, I never wanted to be a mom before.
22:54But being with you, it, it changed me.
23:01You see the good in people.
23:05You do the right thing, even when it costs you.
23:08I miss that part of myself.
23:14Are, are you against having another kid?
23:18No, no, no, I just, um, you're just throwing a lot at me right now.
23:24I know, I know.
23:25I'm not quite sure what to say.
23:26Okay, then don't say anything.
23:28Okay, at least not yet.
23:30Right.
23:31I've had the whole morning to think about this, and now it's your turn.
23:36We'll talk later.
23:37Right.
23:38Good idea.
23:39Okay.
23:40Okay.
23:53I am ahead of schedule.
23:54I'm never ahead of schedule.
23:56You're good.
23:57Yes, I am.
23:58You know, with my business just growing like crazy,
24:00I actually think I need to hire a security chief here in L.A.
24:03I already have a job, Mingus.
24:04But does it pay you a quarter mil a year?
24:06Not at the present, no.
24:07I haven't even gotten to the perks yet.
24:09Hey.
24:11Hey, hey.
24:14Police!
24:15Move and you're dead.
24:16What the hell are you doing?
24:18This is my cousin, Lev.
24:20I asked him to meet us here.
24:22You okay?
24:23Yeah, what is her problem?
24:25Only two more nuisance complaints,
24:27we can knock him out once we get back on the street.
24:29You were right.
24:30I should have followed your playbook at the community meeting.
24:32That was my bad.
24:34So, uh, you got a challenge coin from the governor.
24:36What's he like?
24:37You know what?
24:38Not Nolan.
24:39I don't really do chit-chat.
24:41Uh, okay.
24:42Uh, look.
24:43Um.
24:45I want to learn how to do the job the way you do it.
24:49Be like you.
24:50No.
24:51You don't.
24:52Are you kidding?
24:53You're a decorated detective.
24:55You're not.
24:56Are you kidding?
24:57You're a decorated detective with a storied undercover career.
25:01Not to mention the governor personally gave you one of his challenge coins.
25:04I mean, that's huge.
25:05What's huge is the cost of having a career like mine.
25:08What do you mean?
25:09Hopefully you never find out.
25:11Because none of the commendations or the promotions or even the challenge coins
25:15will ever make up for what I've lost.
25:17So don't be me.
25:19I don't even want to be me.
25:27You sure you're okay to keep working?
25:31Officer Nolan.
25:33What? Um.
25:34Yes, sir.
25:35What did you say?
25:36Your arm.
25:37You want to take the rest of the day?
25:38Oh, no.
25:39No, I'm fine.
25:41I'm good.
25:42All right.
25:43Um, sir.
25:44How long had you been a cop when your daughter was born?
25:47Two years.
25:48What was that like?
25:49Having a baby at home and being on patrol?
25:51Ugh.
25:53Long days at work, late nights at home.
25:56Trying to master two jobs at the same time.
25:58It was hell.
25:59Only good sleep I got was in the back of my shop during lunch.
26:04Yeah.
26:05Yeah, but she was worth it.
26:07Your kids always are.
26:09Why are you asking?
26:11No reason, sir.
26:12How's Jessica?
26:13She's great, sir.
26:15Give her my best.
26:16I will.
26:17Hey.
26:18Hey.
26:20I need your help.
26:21What's wrong?
26:22I'm looking for Officer Bradford.
26:23He's on patrol, son.
26:24What's going on?
26:25It's my mom.
26:26She's missing.
26:29My mom went to borrow Cousin's car so we could get out of town, but she never came back.
26:33When was this?
26:34Right after you all left.
26:35That was hours ago.
26:36Have you spoken with your cousin?
26:37Yeah.
26:38He said my mom never showed.
26:39I tried calling, texting.
26:40I'm telling you guys, something happened.
26:41Well, we believe you, but now it's time for you to be straight with us.
26:44Does this have anything to do with people who firebombed her car?
26:47AJ.
26:48I know you're scared.
26:49I get it.
26:50But you're not betraying your mom's trust by telling us what's going on.
26:52Let us help her.
26:56A few weeks back, one of my mom's ex-boyfriends started hounding her about being a getaway driver in some heist he was putting together.
27:02She agree to do it?
27:03Hell no.
27:04My mom isn't about that life anymore.
27:06She swore never to risk going back to prison and not being there for me.
27:09Okay, so she said no.
27:10What'd the ex-boyfriend say?
27:11He said he was gonna kill me if she didn't do it.
27:13That's why she pulled you off the team.
27:14Why she wanted to get you out of the city.
27:15To protect you.
27:17What's the ex-boyfriend's name?
27:18He's Ian Shaughnessy.
27:19See, if he grabbed her, it was to force her into pulling the robbery.
27:22Which means it's happening to him.
27:23AJ, do you know what the target is?
27:24No.
27:25All I know is that it's happening downtown.
27:26Alright.
27:27You guys get down there.
27:28I'll get detectives on this.
27:29Put the bolo out and the mom and the ex-boyfriend.
27:32It's gonna be okay.
27:33Alright?
27:37Outside of actually spotting AJ's mother or her ex-boyfriend, what exactly are we looking for?
27:42Robbery targets.
27:43There are a dozen banks and payday lenders between here and Flower.
27:46So, how do we whittle it down?
27:48Look for anything odd or out of the ordinary.
27:51This is downtown LA.
27:52That describes everything.
28:11What's up? What's going on?
28:12Why are you patrolling downtown?
28:14How do you know where we are?
28:16I just saw you drive by.
28:18We, uh, got intel on a possible heist in the area.
28:21What's the target?
28:23Unknown.
28:25I'm on 5th and Hill.
28:27You just passed me.
28:28Working a security detail on what could be a potential target.
28:30Gotta be honest with you, I wouldn't hate having an escort.
28:33Excuse me.
28:34We need to leave now.
28:35I am in the middle of a conversation.
28:36No, you're at the end of it.
28:37Say goodbye to the pretty lady.
28:39Come on.
28:40Are you out of your mind?
28:43Go, go, go, go, go!
28:47Police!
29:05Give up the damn case.
29:06What?
29:07Answer! Give up the damn case or they'll kill us!
29:09No, you're supposed to protect my merchandise!
29:11My job is to keep you alive and I'm nine bullets from failing!
29:13Give up the case!
29:16Wait! Hold fire!
29:19Let's go, let's go!
29:22Cover me.
29:27Open the door!
29:28Open the door! Right now!
29:30Open the door!
29:39Drop the gun!
29:41What are you doing now?
29:42Drop your guns right now!
29:43Let's go! Back up! Back up away from the car!
29:45Get down on your knees!
29:46Down on your knees!
29:48Spread your arms!
29:49You okay?
29:50I am now.
29:52Step out of the car. Get your hands where I can see them.
29:57Let's go!
29:58They kidnapped me.
30:00Forced me into this.
30:01I know.
30:02AJ told us everything.
30:03But I gotta place you under arrest until we work something out with the DA.
30:05Put your hands up there.
30:07Is it safe?
30:08All clear.
30:12Hey, hey, hey, no.
30:13That's evidence now.
30:14We have to come collect it from the station after we process it.
30:17Can you do something?
30:18Nope.
30:21And this marks the last stop on our community policing tour.
30:24Bradford and West are facing off against high screws and we are here to...
30:28To talk to a neighbor about feeding squirrels.
30:31Sorry.
30:33Make it up to me by getting a start on that paperwork.
30:47What?
30:48Sir, your neighbors are complaining that you are feeding squirrels.
30:53So what?
30:54Los Angeles Municipal Code 53.068.
30:57So what?
30:58Los Angeles Municipal Code 53.06.5 which says it is illegal to feed wild animals
31:04punishable by a fine of up to $1,000 and or six months imprisonment.
31:10They're squirrels.
31:12Doesn't matter.
31:14What happened to your hand?
31:17A lawnmower.
31:18You done?
31:19Yes, sir.
31:20Have a good one.
31:22Hey, so should I mark that down as being given a verbal warning?
31:26No, run a background check.
31:35Do you want to give me a hint at what we're doing here?
31:37The guy was missing two fingers. Damage like that was caused by an explosive device.
31:40Maybe he was in the military.
31:42He said it was a lawnmower.
31:43Ernie Bosk, records check are negative on any military or law enforcement service.
31:48You studied bombings in the academy?
31:50Did they cover the UCLA bombings in 2009?
31:52Yeah, of course. They recovered an unexploded pipe bomb.
31:55With a red hair inside of it.
31:57You think that's him?
31:59Well, we'll need a DNA sample to be sure of it.
32:02Whoa, what are you doing?
32:03Getting a warrant.
32:04We don't need one if we can get a sample from his trash cans and I can search that without a warrant.
32:08We don't need one if we can get a sample from his trash cans and I can search that without a warrant.
32:13Okay.
32:16What happens if you get caught?
32:18Now if you're right, this guy makes bombs. You really want him throwing one your way?
32:22Not really.
32:23Well then you're going to need someone to distract him.
32:33Hi, how are you?
32:34What do you want?
32:35To talk to you about the importance of drought-resistant vegetation.
32:38I know it's a boring topic, but if you just give me three minutes, I guarantee that I will make it worth your while.
32:44Each year, we waste millions of gallons of water on plants and flowers that are not conducive to the Southern California climate.
32:52I'm going to stop you right there. I don't care.
32:55Sir, please, could I have a glass of water? I've been out all morning.
33:00Maybe you should be more drought-resistant.
33:03Yes, sir.
33:05The water?
33:09Fine.
33:22Sir? The water?
33:25You a cop too?
33:27Uh, yeah. That's my partner outside conducting a lawful search, so you just need to relax.
33:31Harper, keep running!
33:32Seven out of fifteen. Start me up another unit. Fifty-six, eleven. Code three.
33:36Turn around.
33:38Hands where I can see them.
33:41What the hell was that?
33:42It's a burglar alarm system. I built it myself. It's my own private DMZ.
33:49There are pressure plates all throughout the floor. They're rigged to IEDs.
33:53If you take one wrong step, they'll be cleaning you off the ceiling with a squeegee.
33:59Ten!
34:00No, Harper! Don't come inside the house or you'll be trapped.
34:07No, stay! Don't come in. It's rigged.
34:09Where's Bosk?
34:10In the back room. He's arming a bomb. A big-ass bomb. You gotta get clear of the house, radio the bomb squad, and clear the neighborhood.
34:26Mr. Bosk? You don't need to do this.
34:29Why not? I'm caught. May as well go out with a bang.
34:35How long ago did you rig the house? Months? Years?
34:40Almost a decade. I've been waiting that long for cops to show up on my doorstep.
34:46Decade? You're waiting pressure plates?
34:59Come on.
35:30Come on.
35:50Let go of the wire slowly. Turn around. Hands behind your back. Do it now!
35:55Don't you want me to disarm the bombs before you cuff me?
35:57Nope. My guess is you'd enter a code that would set it all off. So we're going out the window.
36:13Hey. House is still booby-trapped, but he didn't finish rigging the fertilizer bomb.
36:17Nice work.
36:18You got him?
36:19Yeah.
36:20Alright. You gonna puke?
36:21No.
36:22No.
36:23No?
36:24Maybe.
36:27No.
36:33How you doing?
36:34Oh, my hand stopped shaking about 15 minutes ago. That's a good sign, right?
36:38Yep.
36:40Hey, I just wanted to say thanks.
36:44You're welcome.
36:45Sorry if I was such a, you know...
36:48Douche?
36:49Yeah. But listen, please. Come be my head of security. I'll give you a 100k bonus.
36:54No. It's not about the money. All today did was remind me how much I love being a cop.
37:00All these officers, including the two that saved our bacon, they're my family.
37:06And I guess I'm not ready to say bye.
37:12However, I will take a save your life bonus if you're still feeling generous.
37:24Hey. Nice working with you today.
37:28Yeah, you too.
37:29Look, I was wrong to discourage you today.
37:33Go as far as you want in this job.
37:35You say you want to be a cop like me. Screw that. Be better than me.
37:40You got what it takes now, Nolan.
37:42I heard you call me Chen back at the house. I know you know my name.
37:47Um, would it be alright if I asked you for advice from time to time?
37:52Sure.
37:54Just not too often. I don't want to mess up the whole lone wolf persona I got going on.
38:06It's presumptuous, I know. But I was hoping we'd have cause to celebrate.
38:19But we don't, do we?
38:22I'm sorry.
38:25And that's it? There's no room for discussion?
38:28Look, Jessica, um, I love being a father.
38:33And I would love to be a mom.
38:36And I want that for you. I do.
38:40But for me, I'm not ready to be a father again. Not just yet.
38:47Okay. What does that mean?
38:51You're already through the steepest part of your career. But me, I'm still just finding my footing.
39:00And I gave up my first path 20 years ago.
39:06And I can't do that again.
39:09But if you can just be patient with me, we can come back to this in a year. Two years tops.
39:17Years? No. Yeah, Nolan, um, it doesn't exactly work like that for women.
39:26I mean, I can't just sit around and wait for the hopes that maybe someday you'll be ready.
39:36I would resent you. And I would hate you.
39:42I do never want that.
39:46So what does that mean?
39:49I'm gonna go home.
39:53And I'll come back tomorrow.
39:58For my stuff when you're not here.
40:03Jess.
40:11Jess.
40:29There you go. Thanks.
40:32You ready?
40:34Hey.
40:37Atta boy. There you go.
40:39You know, AJ, back in high school, I was ranked one of the top quarterbacks in the state.
40:42I can believe that. The interceptions you threw me were always perfect spirals.
40:47So let's see if you still got the skills. You and AJ versus me and the Rook.
40:52Let's go. Let's do this.
40:54Show them what you got, baby. Always do, mama.
40:57Hey, uh, don't get your ankles broke on me.
41:00Kid, I am 26. Don't play me.
41:01You about to get dusted by a 14-year-old. How sad is that?
41:05LAPD has great medical coverage, right?
41:07Yeah, yeah. Very funny.
41:09Real funny when you're gonna be on the ground and smashed.
41:11Five Mississippi.
41:13Whoa. Old lady, huh?
41:15Okay. Make it three.
41:17Hut.
41:19One, two.
41:21You didn't say Mississippi!
41:31Damn it.
42:01You didn't say Mississippi!
