00:02Hey, get back!
00:03Sam!
00:04No, Chris!
00:05No sign of the suspects?
00:06No, but we did recover his weapon.
00:07Wait a minute.
00:08There's supposed to be a gun.
00:09Officer Aaron Cole never switched her camera on during the raid.
00:11Armstrong!
00:12No!
00:13Armstrong!
00:14She said his name before she saw him.
00:16You did good, my friend.
00:17Very good.
00:18Do you realize what you are accusing him of?
00:19But if I'm right, he's betraying everything we stand for.
00:22Until we gather more evidence.
00:23Not enough.
00:24We gotta trip him up somehow.
00:25We gotta get into his head.
00:26Tell me what you know about Armstrong.
00:27A hidden compartment in the laundry room wall.
00:30You broke into my house to kill me because I found out you were dirty.
00:33No one's gonna believe that.
00:34I won't be the only one saying it.
00:35There's another cop on my payroll.
00:36John Nolan.
00:39Control, this is Officer Nolan.
00:41You don't have time for that, John.
00:42You gotta go.
00:43Or they're gonna find us.
00:44The evidence in your house.
01:00Sir, it's a setup.
01:14Nick Armstrong's on his way to the hospital.
01:16Says he tried to kill him.
01:17Says you're on the Darien's payroll.
01:19It's a lie.
01:20Nick's the one who's the dirty cop.
01:21He murdered Aaron Cole.
01:22He's setting me up.
01:24Okay, okay.
01:25Let us inside so we can take a look around.
01:28And you and I can talk.
01:30Do you have a warrant?
01:31Nolan, you do not wanna play things this way.
01:34Actually, sir, this is exactly how you want me to play things.
01:37Two cops are dead and a third one is a murderer.
01:40We're both gonna be under the microscope on this.
01:42So we need to play this exactly by the book, which is why.
01:45You need a warrant and I need to call a lawyer.
01:54Warrant's in process.
01:55Sit tight.
01:56Do not make this worse for yourself.
02:12Hey, Nolan, what's up?
02:15Is Angela okay?
02:16Yeah, no, I'm not calling about her.
02:18Wesley, I need you.
02:20I need your help.
02:21I have to hire you.
02:22Yeah, of course.
02:23Hey, tell me what's happening.
02:24Nick Armstrong is framing me.
02:26He murdered Aaron Cole.
02:28He planted evidence in my house, which is now surrounded by cops.
02:31I told Gray he needs a warrant to come in.
02:32You were right to demand the warrant.
02:34My job is to keep them from getting it.
02:35Judge Paloma is the on-call judge tonight.
02:38It's ten minutes from my house.
02:39Is the evidence that Nick planted easily found?
02:41Yeah, he wasn't very subtle.
02:43All right.
02:44Look, this is what I need you to do.
02:50Wesley.
02:53Wesley, are you there?
02:57Wesley, are you there?
02:58Uh...
03:00Yeah.
03:01Yeah.
03:02Uh, listen.
03:04What I need you to do is bag the evidence.
03:05Hide it somewhere else.
03:06Somewhere it won't easily be found.
03:07I can't tamper with the evidence.
03:09No, you won't be.
03:10Legally, we'll argue that, with knowledge of at least two dirty cops, you had no choice but to secure the evidence until you knew it was going to be safe.
03:16I was on my flying court, but I could lose my job.
03:18Forget about your job, Nolan.
03:19I'm trying to keep you out of prison.
03:21You here for Nolan?
03:36Yeah, he called me.
03:37This is just a signature and a search warrant.
03:39There's nothing for you to do here. Go home.
03:41Clearly, I've never seen me in a probable cause here.
03:44Is, um...
03:47Everything all right?
03:48No.
03:49Everything is a dumpster fire.
03:50Two cops are dead and I'm here to get a warrant on a friend of mine.
03:54Is there anything else bothering you?
03:57Oh, boy.
03:58And I was having such a lovely dream.
04:01Okay.
04:02Let's make this quick.
04:03Raise your right hand and repeat after me.
04:05Hey.
04:06Can I screw up?
04:07You gotta get Nolan.
04:09Did you arrest him?
04:11Is he in custody?
04:12Not yet.
04:13We shouldn't talk about this.
04:14I know your friends, but Nolan's a killer.
04:15You can't trust him.
04:16You hear me?
04:17You hear me?
04:18Yes, sir.
04:19I hear you.
04:20Jackson.
04:21How is he?
04:22The bullet went straight through.
04:23Doesn't seem like he hit anything vital, but he's definitely going to do surgery.
04:25What did he say to you?
04:26Same thing he said at the scene.
04:28Nolan tried to kill him after admitting that there was damning evidence hidden at his house.
04:31I'm sorry.
04:32Like, I don't believe it.
04:33I mean, Nolan's a great cop.
04:34Best of us.
04:37So is Armstrong.
04:38Stop.
04:39Stop.
04:40Our job is to collect facts right now, not form opinions.
04:43Understood?
04:44Yeah, I'm sorry.
04:45It's been a horrible few days, Chris's death, and now this.
04:48It's easy to lose focus, but that's exactly why it's vital that we don't.
04:53I need you to stay here and keep an eye on Armstrong once I'm gone.
04:57Report back on everything he says.
04:59Yes, sir.
05:00I won't let you down.
05:02Good.
05:08Commander.
05:09We don't have to talk now, but when we do, you have the right to have a union rep present.
05:13I don't need a rep.
05:14I need protection.
05:15From who?
05:16Harper.
05:17She's in on it, too.
05:39Nolan, what the hell is going on?
05:41Harper, I've really stepped in.
05:43Armstrong lured me to his place, made me think it was to confess, but it was a setup.
05:47He planted evidence in my house.
05:48Why the hell didn't you call me before you went?
05:52Please tell me you at least taped the conversation.
05:54Yeah, that would have been smart.
05:55Well, that would explain why there are cops at my front door.
05:58Armstrong needs to frame both of us in order for this to work.
06:01You break into your house, too?
06:02No.
06:03My security system would have nuked him.
06:05I should really invest in one of those.
06:07Yeah.
06:08It's a little late for that.
06:09I am really sorry, Nyla.
06:11Yeah, and I am really looking forward to yelling at you when we are on the other side of this.
06:15I think you mean if.
06:19Be smart, Nolan.
06:20It only gets bumpier from here.
06:24Let's go.
06:25Try not to make a mess.
06:26There's a gun safe in the hall closet.
06:28Keys are here.
06:29Lock up when you're done.
06:31Can we go under the station?
06:32No.
06:33Internal Affairs.
06:35Is this right?
06:36I'm afraid so.
06:37Your Honor, may I see the state's probable cause affidavit?
06:40Care to cite?
06:411538.5 PC in Theodore.
06:43Your Honor, I would object under Evidence Code 1040 through 1042 on the grounds that it may unnecessarily reveal information, sources, and investigative tactics.
06:54Well, given that the subject of the search is a police officer familiar with investigative tactics, Evidence Code section 1040 should not apply. Respectfully.
07:02What exactly are the charges the state is considering against Officer Melvin?
07:05Well, for starters, assault with a deadly weapon, attempted murder of a peace officer, and conspiracy.
07:10Clearly an act of self-defense.
07:13Detective Armstrong lured Officer Nolan to his house, pulled a weapon, and fired.
07:17Officer Nolan returned fire in self-defense.
07:20And no physical evidence listed here asserts otherwise.
07:22Sadly, Your Honor, an informant has corroborated Detective Armstrong's account.
07:26In a sworn statement, he identified Officer Nolan as working with the Darien crime family.
07:31Um, but their informant has not been certified, tested, or reliable.
07:35And with personal jeopardy as a murder suspect in this very case, his account can hardly be considered credible without cross-examination.
07:46The state makes the case corruption exists within the division.
07:50Officer Nolan is connected to that.
07:51And there is imminent threat to the destruction of evidence without expedient action.
07:56The state is the same.
07:59Why aren't you two married?
08:01Almost.
08:02Good luck.
08:03And good night.
08:09You did great back there.
08:10Thanks.
08:11You didn't make it easy.
08:12Wesley, tell Nolan I'm rooting for him.
08:21Sergeant, Judge Paloma signed the warrant at 0319 hours,
08:24endorsed for night service.
08:26You're green and go. Please be careful.
08:29Nolan, you're out of time. They're coming in.
08:31Don't resist. Don't say anything.
08:33We'll meet you at the station.
08:42Get your hands behind your back.
09:04Officer...
09:05Am I under arrest?
09:07Not yet.
09:09We gotta do everything by the book.
09:11Let's go.
09:16Please tell me that Armstrong has got cops all over him.
09:19Yeah, I can't do that, and you know why.
09:21You cannot believe that Nolan is dirty.
09:24We don't, Jen.
09:25I gather from here.
09:28Head to Nolan's.
09:28Assistant's search.
09:29Yes, sir.
09:30Sergeant?
09:32Um.
09:36Never mind.
09:39Sir.
09:40Save it for upstairs.
09:42Nolan, do you understand?
09:44Nolan.
09:46What?
09:47Technically, you're not under arrest.
09:49You're cooperating.
09:50But once you're not free to leave beyond a brief detention,
09:53that constitutes an arrest and starts the clock.
09:55DA will have 72 hours to present their case against you.
09:57Yeah, I know that.
10:00Of course.
10:01But I also know that you're in shock, and I need you to focus.
10:05If convicted, you're looking at 25 years,
10:07which is why you need to let me do all the talking.
10:09One mistake, one ill-chosen word, and you're going to prison.
10:12No, we don't have to play it like that.
10:13The truth is on my side.
10:15And you think that means something?
10:17If you were any other defendant.
10:19What?
10:20Never mind.
10:20No, I want to know.
10:21If I was any other defendant, what?
10:22You are a white man.
10:27A cop.
10:28You have already been treated with a level of deference my other clients would never get.
10:31If you were black or brown, the police would have created exigent circumstances and kicked the door in.
10:37Shot you if they thought you reacted aggressively.
10:41Arrested you if you surrendered.
10:42Confident that the DA would bully you into a plea deal.
10:44That's not fair.
10:45I'm not that kind of cop.
10:46Neither is Gray.
10:47You're telling me you've never bent the rules?
10:50Not like that.
10:54Look, you have a chance to survive this because of who you are.
10:58But only if you do exactly what I say.
11:02Can you handle that?
11:04It's been alleged that the Darien crime family recruited you during your tenure as an undercover operative.
11:11In exchange for money and concealing your identity, you provided sensitive police intelligence which helped them avoid prosecution.
11:19Now, is there any truth to this?
11:22Any bit at all?
11:23Absolutely not, sir.
11:24That is Armstrong's truth.
11:25He did those things.
11:27And he's using me and Nolan to cover his tracks.
11:30Detective Armstrong has an unblemished record here in this department.
11:35So I'm going to need to see some pretty serious evidence to substantiate that.
11:40Yes, sir.
11:41We have body cam and dash cam video that shows Armstrong making a series of texts at critical moments during the hunt for Officer Rios' killer.
11:48It was Armstrong who redirected Nolan into booking the murder weapon into evidence so that Aaron Cole could steal the gun from Nolan's shop.
11:56Look, you can see here, Armstrong hands her a note.
11:58Do you have that note?
12:01No, sir.
12:02Then how can you know what was on it?
12:03I can't know for sure, but I...
12:05Armstrong says that you and Nolan lured him to the oil fields under false pretenses, planning to kill him because he was on to you.
12:14That's another lie.
12:15We were trying to identify the burner phone number he was using in hopes of getting our hands on his call and text records.
12:21And did you get any?
12:21No.
12:22I mean, we did identify the phone number, but the phone had just been activated that morning, which is when we decided that Officer Nolan should go speak with Rosalind Dyer in prison.
12:33What?
12:34Why?
12:34We figured she would have some sort of insight into his criminality.
12:36She also tried to have Armstrong murdered a few months ago, which makes it believable that Nolan went to her to conspire with her.
12:44No, no, that is not what happened.
12:46Look, this is Nolan's body cam from when Armstrong shot Aaron Cole.
12:49You can clearly see that she says his name before she sees him.
12:53Why didn't you come forward with Officer Nolan's suspicions prior to taking investigative action on your own?
12:59Why didn't you instruct your trainee to trust the system?
13:04I can see now that I made a mistake.
13:06But at the time, I did not think that it was in the department's best interest to disparage a fellow officer without additional...
13:13That is not your damn job!
13:16What does the placard say on my desk?
13:19Commander, Internal Affairs.
13:21This office is the only investigative unit required by the California Constitution.
13:28Do you know why?
13:29Because police officers are infused with the power of the state.
13:33The power to take a life in pursuit of justice.
13:37Power that is all too easily abused.
13:41And yet at every turn, cops like you look at us like the enemy, the rat squad.
13:46How the hell do you expect me to root out problem cops when I'm sabotaged at every turn?
13:53We are going to tear your life apart, detective.
13:59And if we find as much as a typo in the statement you're about to write, you won't be a cop anymore.
14:06We should be tearing Armstrong's house apart, not Nolan's.
14:13Relax, boo.
14:14We're doing both.
14:15Look, we have a job to do.
14:16We can't play favorites.
14:17There is no way that Harper and Nolan are dirty.
14:19Three days ago, you just said the same thing about Aaron Cole.
14:22Sure.
14:22But I know Nolan a hell of a lot better than I knew Aaron, and so do you.
14:26He's got the strongest moral compass of us all.
14:29Maybe.
14:30Or maybe that's only who he is, and it's easy.
14:32Look, at the end of the day, we only think we know other people.
14:35I learned that the hard way.
14:48What time is it?
14:49Time for another fresca.
14:50What's going on?
14:51Not much, really.
14:53General Hospital's on in a few.
14:54No.
14:56With Nolan.
14:58Oh, he's in custody, getting the full cavity search from IA.
15:01You know, I never trusted that guy.
15:03Nobody's that nice.
15:04They find anything at his house?
15:06What?
15:06You're awake.
15:07You're supposed to text me.
15:08Well, he's filling me in.
15:10It's not really his job.
15:12As long as we're talking, can I ask you a question?
15:15Yeah, of course.
15:16Look, you said that Nolan came to your house to kill you.
15:20Yeah.
15:20But first, he told you about a bunch of evidence hidden at his place.
15:24Why would he waste time doing that?
15:26Nolan's a talker.
15:28You know him.
15:29Yeah, I do.
15:30But he's not a boaster.
15:32And he's definitely not stupid.
15:35You accusing me of something, Boop?
15:39No, sir.
15:41Just trying to wrap my brain around this.
15:42I get it.
15:48I get it.
15:50We all feel betrayed.
15:53It's heartbreaking to find out that somebody you cared about isn't who you think they are.
15:58I mean...
15:59I'm sorry.
16:03I gotta close my eyes.
16:04That surgery took it out of me.
16:05I'm just...
16:06Sure thing.
16:07We'll be right outside.
16:09Yeah.
16:11Slay.
16:11Find anything?
16:27Not yet.
16:27Maybe there's nothing to find.
16:29Or maybe Nolan was trained to know where cops would look.
16:31Hell, he built this place up from the studs.
16:33Probably designed a hidey hole we'll never find.
16:35Did we do all this?
16:36Grace had the walls ripped apart before he came in.
16:38Why would Nolan do that?
16:40Don't know, don't care.
16:41No, think about it.
16:42Armstrong insists that Nolan tried to kill him.
16:44But then why did Nolan leave before the job was done?
16:46Why rush back here and tear the walls up?
16:48I'll tell you why.
16:50It's because he's looking for the evidence, too.
16:52Bradford.
16:55Yeah.
16:57You see, now that's a proper hidey hole.
16:58For a civilian.
17:00You just got done saying Nolan would build something we'd never find.
17:03Maybe I overestimated the guy.
17:04No.
17:05Look, Nolan's a lot of things, but he's not sloppy.
17:08He comes in here, desperate, rips open the walls, ends up in the bedroom,
17:14finds the opening behind the bed filled with whatever Armstrong hid in there.
17:18And then what?
17:19And then...
17:20You don't think that's random garbage, do you?
17:41No, that's Nolan being smart.
17:43He knew he'd find the goods, so he chucked them down the hill.
17:45Our warrant is for Nolan's property, not the neighbor's.
17:47So if we open that bag without a Stiegald warrant, anything we find in there will be inadmissible.
17:51Exactly.
17:52So let's go get that warrant.
17:53Go for it.
17:54But it's a waste of time.
17:57What?
17:57Look, that is not the evidence.
17:59Nolan wouldn't jeopardize evidence by throwing it down a hill where it could be damaged or destroyed.
18:04If I'm right and he's innocent, then that means the real evidence is hidden somewhere in this house.
18:09That bag is just a fake-out meant to buy him some time.
18:12Time for what?
18:12To talk his way out of this.
18:14Just remember, don't say a word.
18:16I'll do all the taco.
18:17We'll be making our own recording of this interview, as is our right.
18:24Further, I'm exercising our right to identify and everyone monitoring.
18:27Very well.
18:28I'm Commander Percy West of the Internal Affairs Unit.
18:30Behind me in observation is Sergeant Wade Gray and Assistant District Attorney Luca Bravin.
18:36First of all, I'm...
18:37Oh, no.
18:38It doesn't work that way.
18:39Officer Nolan, per Government Code 3300 and Liebarger, I am required to advise that you do not have the right to remain silent.
18:48Anything you say can and will be used against you.
18:51Refusal to fully and completely answer all of my questions will result in your immediate termination and referral to the District Attorney for Prosecution.
19:01Do you understand?
19:02Yes.
19:03Having received the Liebarger warning, do you give up your right to remain silent?
19:08And will you honestly and without reservation answer all of my questions?
19:12Commander, my client has no intention of answering.
19:15Yes.
19:15Yes.
19:16I'll answer all of your questions.
19:17Honestly, completely and without reservation.
19:19No.
19:20He won't.
19:21Not another one.
19:22I have to do this.
19:24No matter the consequences.
19:25I have to do this.
19:55Mr. Armstrong because he was smarter than me and more ruthless, and she was right.
20:02I never saw the frame coming.
20:04Where's the evidence Armstrong planted?
20:07It's in the water heater.
20:09I told you so.
20:16We got police files, a couple pistols, and a bunch of cash.
20:19All right.
20:19CSU will process it.
20:21If there's as much as a single DNA strand from Armstrong on it, we'll know he's involved.
20:26You up for another assignment?
20:27Whatever you need.
20:28Drive up to Chowchilla and retrieve the security footage of Nolan's meeting with Rosalind Dyer yesterday.
20:35Sir, I'm not sure we're the right team for that assignment, given Chen's history with Rosalind Dyer.
20:39What assignment?
20:41It was to get the surveillance tape from Nolan's meeting with Rosalind yesterday.
20:44What the hell was he doing meeting with Rosalind?
20:46It's your call, Bradford.
20:47You're her T.O.
20:48I trust your judgment.
20:51Tim, it's not a problem.
20:52Okay.
20:56We can handle it.
20:59Sir, good intentions aside, I know I made a mess of this.
21:02You have to let me try and fix it.
21:04You can't.
21:04Even if everything you told me is true and Detective Armstrong is guilty as sin,
21:09your actions might very well have allowed him to muddy the waters enough to escape punishment.
21:14Yes, sir.
21:14I understand.
21:15And that'll be my burden to bear.
21:16But right now, we have bigger fish than Armstrong.
21:18Ruben Darien has been laughing at this department for years.
21:22Because of him, two cops are dead.
21:24He has to pay for that, and I can make it happen.
21:27Let me wear a wire.
21:28No.
21:29Look, it's not as crazy as it sounds.
21:31Yes, it is.
21:32Okay, listen, just...
21:33Ruben Darien is used to playing with loaded dice.
21:36He's always a step ahead of us because Armstrong's been feeding him intel.
21:39But now, for the first time, he's flying blind.
21:42He's got to be desperate to know what's going on,
21:45whether the frame on me is working, whether Armstrong is flipped.
21:48And why would he listen to you?
21:49I'm the only guy more desperate than he is.
21:51Look, Armstrong is burned in this department, no matter what.
21:54But if Ruben can get Surge to admit to the frame, I'm redeemed.
21:58I can stay on the job.
22:00Ruben will see the value in that.
22:02He'll have a new mall with another 20 years left on the job.
22:05It's 15 minutes.
22:06We're done.
22:07Officer Nolan.
22:10He just saved your life.
22:12The odds of Ruben buying your act are slim to none.
22:14He wouldn't have to buy it.
22:15Meeting alone would constitute conspiracy.
22:19And if he shoots you on sight?
22:22Then the D.A. could indict him on capital murder.
22:25Sir.
22:28Sergeant.
22:29I know I can't undo the mistakes I've made,
22:32but I can help make things right.
22:35No matter what it costs me.
22:36You are, without a doubt,
22:46the biggest pain in my ass I've suffered in 25 years on the job.
22:50Is that a yes?
22:52Vice has a CI in the Darian organization.
22:54He works at one of their karaoke bars.
22:57We can use him to spin Ruben,
22:59giving you a fighting chance to convince the Darians
23:01that you're desperate to make a deal.
23:03I quit.
23:16Hey.
23:18How's it going?
23:19Uh, my client just staged a mutiny.
23:22Now he's trying to get himself killed.
23:23Can we talk?
23:24I can't.
23:25I'm retracing Armstrong's movements, right?
23:26Wesley?
23:31You know I peed on that, right?
23:32Angela?
23:32I'm just saying you might want to wash your hands.
23:35Angela.
23:36Why didn't you tell me?
23:37What do you think?
23:40You don't want to have a kid?
23:42This isn't how it was supposed to go.
23:45I wanted the storybook wedding
23:47and the honeymoon that we never forget.
23:50I wanted the romance before the responsibility.
23:54I wanted to be ready.
23:56We can still have all of that.
23:58We can't.
23:59It won't be the same.
24:00No.
24:00Not all of it.
24:07But here's what will be the same.
24:09You are going to look beautiful in your dress.
24:11And I will cry when I see you walking down the aisle
24:14and you'll make fun of me for it for the rest of our lives.
24:17No, I won't.
24:18Yeah, I will.
24:19This is our path, Angela.
24:24And it is not the one that we thought we were on yesterday,
24:26but we are still on it together.
24:28I promise.
24:30When we look back at this moment,
24:32it will feel like the gift that it is.
24:35You say that now, but once the hormones kick in,
24:37you're in for a rough ride.
24:38Bring it on.
24:40This is the part where you kiss me.
24:42I would, but I'm feeling super puky right now,
24:44so rain check.
24:46What kind of a prison doesn't have audio
24:58on their surveillance cameras?
24:59Sound costs money.
25:00I'm going to head back to the shop
25:01while I go get a statement from Roslyn.
25:03What?
25:04No way.
25:04It's for your own good.
25:05You have a personal connection.
25:06So do you.
25:07It's not the same.
25:08If I can't handle talking to Roslyn
25:09while she's in a cage,
25:10I shouldn't be a cop.
25:11A few questions to ask you.
25:18Shouldn't take long.
25:19This is about John, isn't it?
25:21We know you talked to him
25:22about Armstrong yesterday.
25:23Can you describe the content
25:24of that conversation?
25:26You know, I am so impressed with you.
25:30The way you handled what was obviously
25:31a very traumatic experience.
25:35It's inspiring.
25:36Thanks.
25:37That means a lot coming from you.
25:39Well, so defiant.
25:43All right, let's stick to Nolan.
25:44Just like you were
25:45when the lid came down in that barrel.
25:47You must have driven Caleb crazy,
25:50denying him the fear
25:51he so desperately wanted to see in you.
25:54How do I know that?
26:01You think the camera in the barrel
26:03was for Caleb?
26:04Don't listen to her, Chin.
26:04She's just playing mind games.
26:05Oh, I am totally playing mind games.
26:08But I'm not lying.
26:10Stars shining bright above you
26:14Night breezes seem to whisper
26:19I love you
26:20Birds singing in the sycamore tree
26:24Knock it off.
26:26Ah.
26:27The fierce protector.
26:29We're done here.
26:30Let's go.
26:31We'll have IA follow-up.
26:32Armstrong's lasted this long
26:35because his contingency plans
26:37have contingencies.
26:38Whatever you've already found,
26:40there's more.
26:42What did she mean by that?
26:44Armstrong's prepared to run.
26:45He's got to go back hidden somewhere.
26:48Lopez, I got something for you to chase down.
26:50So we have to assume the Darians are watching the station.
26:54So you'll be on your own
26:55the second you leave.
26:57I heard a whisper.
26:58Y'all were up to something I wanted.
26:59Forget it.
27:00You are still under active investigation.
27:02And before you say so's Nolan,
27:03there's no operation without him,
27:05which is the only reason why he's involved.
27:07Understood?
27:07Yes, sir.
27:09Good.
27:09Then take a walk.
27:11We will monitor you through audio bugs and GPS.
27:14You have to believe the lie
27:15or else you can't sell it.
27:17Ruben needs to feel like you are desperate enough
27:19to betray everything you care about.
27:21That shouldn't be too hard to sell.
27:22Anything else?
27:23Be careful.
27:25But not too careful.
27:27Undercover is all about offense,
27:29even when you are playing defense.
27:30Are you done?
27:31Yes.
27:33No, no.
27:34Don't be afraid to pull the ripcord, okay?
27:38Arresting Ruben Darian is not worth your life.
27:41Now I'm done.
27:43Are you ready to do this?
27:45Yes, sir.
27:46We have some breaking news
27:48in the recent scandal rocking the LAPD.
27:51A source inside the department
27:52tells KZYO that Officer John Nolan,
27:55a rookie in the Mid-Wolshere Division,
27:57has been suspended without pay,
27:59and it appears that criminal charges
28:01will be filed at any moment.
28:02Now we're driving,
28:04ain't nobody denying,
28:05this is my squad.
28:19Who is this?
28:20It's John Nolan.
28:21I'm hanging up.
28:22Wait.
28:25If you don't help me,
28:26I'm a dead man.
28:26I'll do anything.
28:31Keep your phone on.
28:32We're in business.
28:348,500 team.
28:35Subject's in play.
28:40Lopez, what's up?
28:41Just cementing Armstrong's timeline.
28:43The good news is that his cell phone GPS
28:45puts him at Nolan's house
28:46for over an hour yesterday.
28:47That's about how long it would take
28:48to cut a hole in the wall
28:49and plant evidence.
28:51Yes, sir.
28:52Good job.
28:52Where are you at now?
28:53Cemetery.
28:54Armstrong spent 31 minutes here
28:56after he left Nolan's.
28:57You're probably saying goodbye to his wife
28:58just in case things went sideways.
29:00That's what I thought.
29:01But then Tim called.
29:02Word is that Armstrong
29:03has a go-bag hidden somewhere.
29:05Wait a minute.
29:05You don't think...
29:06That he buried the bag
29:07on top of his wife's coffin?
29:08No.
29:09But I'm gonna do some digging anyway.
29:10Found it.
29:33What the hell was that?
29:35Nothing.
29:40It's been three hours
29:42long before we give up.
29:44Patience is a virtue, Officer Nolan.
29:46Yes, sir.
29:51Here we go.
29:53This is Nolan.
29:54Hudson Avenue, 12th Street.
29:56Ten minutes.
29:57A second late, and we're gone.
29:59We're green and go.
30:00I repeat, we are green and go.
30:10I just landed.
30:13Twenty seconds to spare.
30:14No one in sight.
30:15We're in place.
30:16We're watching on the drone.
30:18Get ready, Nolan.
30:19Black SUV coming your way.
30:20I see.
30:22Going dark.
30:28Strip.
30:30What?
30:30Clothes off.
30:31Shoes two.
30:32Let's go.
30:38Stripping them of all the bugs.
30:40Seriously, you want to roll in your underwear?
30:47Should we pull the plug, sir?
30:49Negative.
30:50Hold position.
30:56For your head.
30:57No way.
30:57No hood, no go.
31:02I suppose you watch this after the last guy.
31:04Get in the car.
31:07All units, hold position.
31:08They'll be watching for a moment.
31:10Throne operator.
31:11Do not lose them.
31:12Roger that.
31:16I have a call for you at the nurses' station, Sergeant Gray.
31:33The boss is calling.
31:35Probably to sing my praises.
31:49Hello?
31:51Hello, Nicholas.
31:52How's the gunshot wound?
32:00I'll survive.
32:02I'm not so sure about that.
32:05You have made quite a mess.
32:07You can't really believe that your slapdash frame job of Nolan is going to hold up.
32:11Still got a couple cards up my sleeve.
32:13Not anymore.
32:14You see, I've been turning those cards over for you.
32:17Who do you think told John about your little hidey hole?
32:21And now I've told them about your go-bag.
32:23You're out of moves, Nick.
32:25Enjoy prison.
32:25Heads up.
32:35Losing visuals.
32:36They're going in a tunnel.
32:37Moving to the other side to intercept.
32:39Let's tighten up.
32:39We need eyes on the SCP.
32:42You sure he said gray?
32:44Positive.
32:45What are you-
32:46Target reacquired.
32:57Sergeant Armstrong slipped his detail at the hospital.
32:59He's gone.
33:00All units, we need to get Nolan out now.
33:11Show me your hands.
33:12Show me your hands.
33:13What about your window?
33:14Get your window down.
33:16No one's out of pocket.
33:21They must have switched him out in the tunnel.
33:46You wanted to talk?
33:52So talk.
33:53But maybe first explain to me the surveillance team that was following you.
33:56That's your fault.
33:58You didn't give me any time to lose a tail.
33:59What kind of sloppy protocols is Armstrong teaching you?
34:02Why don't you ask him yourself?
34:03It was a nice play, Nolan.
34:10It was a nice play.
34:12And it might have worked had I not called Ruben and told me you were way too much of a boy scout to ever sell your soul.
34:17Want to do the honors?
34:23It'd actually be my pleasure.
34:25Careful.
34:26Last time you tried this, you missed.
34:27Yeah, I made it too complicated.
34:29Having to pull the gun, flip the chair.
34:32This is going to be much simpler.
34:34I'd ask for last words, but I'm sick of hearing your voice.
34:39Wait!
34:40What the...
34:41Huh?
34:50Ah!
34:50Ah!
34:55All right.
34:57Come on.
34:59Ah!
35:02Ah!
35:08Ah!
35:08Ah!
35:09Ah!
35:10Ah!
35:10Ah!
35:10Ah!
35:11Ah!
35:11Ah!
35:11Ah!
35:11He's dead?
35:38Drop the gun!
35:40Now, on the ground!
35:42Right now.
35:45Take out your phone.
35:46Dial 9-1-1, put it on speaker, place it next to your gun.
35:529-1-1, what's your emergency?
35:54This is Officer John Nolan, badge number 25253.
35:58I have multiple suspects in custody requesting backup and ambulances, plural.
36:02One victim, multiple gunshot wounds.
36:05Status unknown.
36:06Now, take off your clothes.
36:07Excuse me?
36:08Not you.
36:09Strip now.
36:10Gunshot victim unconscious, not breathing.
36:26I'll make this quick.
36:37N-O-I-D.
36:39What does that stand for, Officer Nolan?
36:40Notice of Intent to Discipline.
36:42Why are you smiling?
36:43Because it means I still have a job.
36:44Don't celebrate yet.
36:45You're not going to like what's coming.
36:47Neither will you, Detective Harper.
36:48Sir, can I say something, please?
36:50As a training officer, I have one job, and that is to teach Officer Nolan the right way to be a cop.
36:56And I failed.
36:58I should bear all the consequences.
37:00Naila, no.
37:00As touching as this is, Officer Nolan has received enough instruction to know right from wrong.
37:07Clearly, I have given you both way too much leeway.
37:10That's on me.
37:11What is noble cause corruption, Officer Nolan?
37:14When an officer justifies bending or breaking the rules if they believe that infraction is being done in the name of justice.
37:19The ends justify the means.
37:21The mindset that bad behavior is okay as long as it produces justice is a cancer.
37:28And it's long past time we treat it as such.
37:30Big changes are being made moving forward.
37:33Those changes are starting right here, right now.
37:35You both will receive letters of reprimand in your file.
37:39In addition, Officer Nolan, you will be held over the FTO program for an additional month, and you'll have to pass a review board test to advance.
37:48Yes, sir.
37:49To be clear, receiving a letter of reprimand as a rookie is almost certain to keep you from advancing in the department.
37:57So any hopes of joining a specialized unit or making detectives should be abandoned.
38:01Given those constraints, you will have to decide if the life of a patrol officer is good enough for you.
38:11All right, go home. Get some rest.
38:15I'm so sorry, John.
38:17It's not your fault.
38:18It's kind of a lot my fault.
38:21What are you going to do?
38:24Exactly what Grace said.
38:25I'm going to go home.
38:26I'm going to go to bed.
38:27And in the morning, I'm going to get up and try to earn back what I've lost.
38:39You were wrong earlier.
38:41About anything in particular or just in a global sense?
38:45You said at the end of the day, we only think we know other people, but you're wrong.
38:49Okay, Lucy.
38:50No, when I was in that barrel, I knew you would find me, no matter what it took.
38:57I found you because of your ring, okay?
39:01You saved yourself, and I really hope what happened with Rosalind today doesn't screw with your head.
39:06If it does, I'll deal with it, and I know you'll help me.
39:11Uh, it's not really part of my job description.
39:13Mm-hmm.
39:14Hey, uh, I was wondering, um, well, Chris's funeral is tomorrow, and, look, is it okay if I go home with you and we can just go together in the morning?
39:23Of course.
39:24We could talk about you joining IA on the way home.
39:27Yeah.
39:27Look, I'm not saying you have to decide now, but if you really want to make a difference in this department, you should think about it.
39:35I will.
39:36I promise.
39:37Good.
39:39I'll ask you again next week.
39:40I have no doubt.
39:41I'm taking a long bath when we get home.
39:45I'm going straight to bed.
39:47No, you're not.
39:48These dogs aren't going to rub themselves.
39:51Pregnant lemon are very needy.
39:53I don't think you're fully prepared.
39:54Uh-huh.
39:55Lopez, I have some good news.
39:58Me too.
39:59Can I go first?
40:00It's the only bright spot in my day.
40:01Sure, what's up?
40:03It's been an honor having you under my watch.
40:06What?
40:06You will be reporting to Detective Sergeant Carradine from now on.
40:09Your promotion is official.
40:11Congratulations, Detective.
40:18Oh, I'm sorry.
40:19So, what's your good news?
40:21Well, she's...
40:21I'm going to take a bath and get my feet rubbed.
40:26Okay.
40:27Mine was definitely better, but okay.
40:29Thank you, sir.
40:31It wouldn't have happened without you.
40:33Have a great night, you too.
40:36Why didn't you want me to tell them?
40:39I've been trying to make detective for years.
40:40If I show a pregnant on day one, that's all they'll ever see me as.
40:44They'll treat me as fragile, and I'll never get a real shot.
40:46Okay, so we'll keep you a secret for now.
40:48For now.
40:49Oh, God.
41:19Ellen?
41:21Congratulations.
41:22I underestimated you.
41:24Rosalyn.
41:25You won.
41:26I didn't win.
41:28People died.
41:29People I care about.
41:30I know.
41:31But there is a bright side.
41:32Release for me.
41:34Armstrong's criminality puts all of his cases in jeopardy,
41:38including mine.
41:39Rosalyn, you are never going to walk free.
41:43We both know that.
41:44Now, I'm hanging up, I'm calling the prison,
41:47and they're going to come confiscate that phone you're on.
41:49I know.
41:51And it was worth it to hear your voice.
41:53I'll be dreaming about...
42:17...
42:19...
42:21...
42:23...
42:25...
42:27...
42:29...
42:41...
42:43...
42:47...
42:49...
42:51...
42:53I'm not kidding.
42:55I'm not kidding.
42:57I'm not kidding.
42:59I'm not kidding.
