00:00Control 7 out of 15, we have a structure fire at 8650 Magnolia.
00:18Please notify LAFD.
00:20You think anyone's in there?
00:22Well, no one is supposed to be.
00:24Is that a screen?
00:26Control, what's the ETN, LAFD?
00:28Two minutes.
00:30It's too awful.
00:31Control, be advised.
00:32We're going into the providence.
00:34Ready?
00:50Help me!
00:55Help!
00:56Someone help me!
00:57I'm going to watch this.
01:01And draws them to the sun.
01:03And gives them their authority.
01:05And gives them their control.
01:07I'm gonna pay.
01:09With gravity.
01:11To the sun.
01:13Oh, God.
01:17Get down.
01:25Oh, my God.
01:27Is there anyone else inside?
01:31I thought we saw them.
01:32You shouldn't have gone in.
01:33Well, it'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,
01:42they turn to deadly gases.
01:44Ammonium, carbon dioxide, hydrogen, cyanide.
01:47So unless you want me dragging your ass to safety in the future,
01:50you'll leave the rescues to the professionals.
01:57How's it going with you two?
02:00Really good.
02:02Really good.
02:09How is it that I still smell like smoke after a 30-minute shower?
02:12Welcome to my world.
02:13You always smell fantastic.
02:14That's because I spend half my salary on perfumes, potions, and detergents.
02:19Well, it's working.
02:22You think that fire was arson?
02:24Maybe.
02:25I smelled accelerant.
02:26The arson investigator will know for sure.
02:28You ever think about doing that?
02:30Arson investigation?
02:31Yeah.
02:32No.
02:33I like the physical part of firefighting.
02:34Plus, 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.
02:56Hey.
02:57He and his partner pulled the survivor out before we got here.
02:58Did you give him a lecture about how stupid it is to go into a structured fire without a mask?
03:02Care was given and understood.
03:04Any luck IDing the victim here?
03:06Nah, it's too soon.
03:07There were fifth and sixth degree burns.
03:09But from the size, I'd say it was a man.
03:11And you might want to start referring to him as a suspect instead of the victim.
03:16You think our DB started the fire?
03:18That's what the evidence suggests.
03:20It was right where it started and an accelerant was definitely used.
03:23No way it could have been just an addict falling asleep next to a lick handle.
03:26No, no, no.
03:27That fire got too hot too fast.
03:28So what are you thinking?
03:29That guy we pulled out of there might be able to give us some insight.
03:35So, how's the book?
03:37Terrible.
03:38But who cares?
03:39It's my third maternity leave book.
03:40I've been lucky to average one a year up till now.
03:43Maybe I should extend my lease, spend a little more time with Jack.
03:46I think that's a great idea.
03:48Because you don't want me to go back to work?
03:50Because you want me to quit being a detective and focus on what really matters?
03:53Because you think I won't fulfill my mom potential if I'm at crime scenes all day?
03:57Wow.
03:58Where did that come from?
04:00I don't know.
04:03Clearly, I'm a little conflicted about going back to work.
04:06I want you to do whatever makes you happy.
04:10But I do think that it's time to leave the baby home for a night and go on a date.
04:14Well, what's Jack?
04:16Your mom, my mom, or some teenager we pull up 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, a meeting I forgot about.
04:38I'll make reservations for 7 o'clock, okay?
04:43Hey.
04:45I love you.
04:46I love you too.
04:52Hey.
04:53How's it going with Harper?
04:55I mean, I'm still here, so 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 to 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 to destroy self-confidence.
05:11Yeah, my mom has a version of it.
05:12You think I'd be immune given how often she's used it on me over the years?
05:16Well, Harper uses it on the daily.
05:18I'm still not used to it.
05:19Hang in there.
05:20So I also need you to cover C Division today.
05:23Anything else you need?
05:24Paint your house?
05:25Clean your car?
05:26I got two roving sergeants for six divisions.
05:30Welcome to your new reality.
05:32That's why you should take on a sergeant's aide.
05:35I don't need an aide.
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 whatever you want.
05:49Just pull an officer out of roll call.
05:51Hell, pull chin.
05:53You two work together good.
05:55Tim is going to ask you to be his gopher.
05:59What?
06:00His what?
06:01His aide.
06:02He stretched a little thin.
06:03Grace 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 what new nicknames you came up with for me.
06:14Hmm.
06:15Uh, I've narrowed it down to three.
06:18Um, get out of my face.
06:20Mm-hmm.
06:21Sit your ass down.
06:22Okay.
06:23I will tell you when I am ready.
06:27I love them all.
06:28Okay.
06:29Triple D.
06:30What was that?
06:31Nothing.
06:32Just sit my ass down.
06:34It's all right.
06:35Settle 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, but it'll be a learning experience.
06:44Webb.
06:45How about it?
06:46You ready to get off patrol?
06:47Yes, sir.
06:48Looking forward to it.
06:49I thought...
06:50Officer Nolan.
06:51So I saw your request to follow up on the man you pulled out of the fire yesterday.
06:54Yes, sir.
06:55I checked with the hospital.
06:56He regained consciousness.
06:57I thought it would be important to get a statement while his memory was fresh.
06:59See, I agree.
07:00I'll notify Caridine for when he assigns a detective.
07:02You're driving today.
07:03Hey, you know I almost qualified to race in the British Grand Prix, right?
07:04I mean, before my troubles.
07:05And you've never known real fear until you've gone airborne in a Formula One car.
07:06Yeah.
07:07Try being hunted by a pack of cartel Sicarios, then get back to me.
07:08Okay, that's a story I want to hear.
07:09Nyla.
07:10Hi.
07:11Hi.
07:12Hi.
07:13Hi.
07:14Hi.
07:15What are you doing here?
07:16Just stop by to ask you to lunch.
07:17It's 9 a.m.
07:18All right.
07:19Sorry.
07:20When your kid gets up before the sun, you lose track of time.
07:21You lose track of time.
07:22You lose track of time.
07:23You lose track of time.
07:24You lose track of time.
07:25Hey, you know I almost qualified to race in the British Grand Prix, right?
07:26I mean, before my troubles.
07:27And you've never known real fear until you've gone airborne in a Formula One car.
07:28Yeah.
07:29Try being hunted by a pack of cartel Sicarios, then get back to me.
07:30Okay, that's a story I want to hear.
07:31Nyla.
07:32Hi.
07:33What are you doing here?
07:34Just stop by to ask you to lunch.
07:35All right.
07:36Sorry.
07:37When your kid gets up before the sun, you lose track of time.
07:40Plus, I was wondering if you could take care of this ticket for me.
07:45Uh-uh.
07:46No.
07:47Put it away.
07:48I can't.
07:49I'm gonna go set up the shop.
07:50Mm-hmm.
07:51Sorry.
07:52I knew I shouldn't have asked.
07:53Yeah, you also shouldn't have been going 60 in a 30.
07:56What were you thinking?
07:57Then my ex was gonna tear me a new one if I was late for my pickup again.
08:01That's no excuse.
08:02Can I take you to dinner this week?
08:04I'd love that.
08:05I want to.
08:06Hmm.
08:07Is that your boyfriend?
08:09No, I'm just curious to know if I gave off any signals that would make you comfortable
08:22enough to ask me a personal question.
08:25No, there were none.
08:27There were no signals given.
08:29That's what some people like to call my bad.
08:32Mm-hmm.
08:33Okay.
08:34Why would you tell me that Tim was going to pick me when he didn't?
08:37Because Gray told him to.
08:38Then why didn't he?
08:39I don't know, but clearly it bothers you.
08:41No, I just...
08:43It would make a good career opportunity.
08:45As a roving supervisor, Tim responds to all the high-profile cases.
08:49And being right there with him would make me stand out when promotion time comes.
08:52So tell him you want the gig.
08:54Oh, he would just love that.
08:55Being in the position to decide my fate again.
08:58No.
08:59He'll come around.
09:00He'll come around.
09:01I just have to give it time.
09:03Because the one thing I know for sure is 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 far.
09:13But I know.
09:14By like three feet.
09:15But what's the point of his to replay if you're not going to get it right?
09:17Hey, man.
09:18You preaching to the choir.
09:19Hey, you know I get season tickets to the Dodgers and the Angels.
09:23So if you ever want to hit up a game, just let me know.
09:26I'll hook you up.
09:27Don't say that if you don't mean it, because I will call.
09:30Hey, that's the least a gopher could do.
09:32Hey.
09:34My man.
09:36Hi there.
09:37Hi.
09:38Mr. Hall, do you remember us?
09:39We pulled you out of the fire yesterday.
09:41What were you doing in the house?
09:43Oh, well, uh, I've been squatting there.
09:46It's a lot safer than being on the streets.
09:49Oh, of course.
09:50How long have you been there?
09:51Since I returned.
09:53From?
09:54Cremulus.
09:55And Cremulus is?
09:57Oh, it's the planet right next to Proxima Centauri.
10:00But no one really knows about it, so please just keep it to yourself.
10:04Oh, I think you can count on us now.
10:07Were you there alone?
10:08Did anybody come back with you?
10:10No.
10:11No, those who walk a celestial path are destined for solitude.
10:17But 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.
10:29They...
10:30I heard them coming through the back.
10:32I hid so that they wouldn't see me.
10:35Mm, maybe...
10:37Half an hour later, that's when the fire started.
10:41Did you hear what the voices were saying?
10:44Would you recognize them if you heard them again?
10:46Uh, they were pretty muffled.
10:48And you're sure it wasn't just one man?
10:50Yes.
10:51Because one of them was yelling, and the other was crying.
11:01Mr. Stone insisted on waiting in your office.
11:05Of course he did.
11:06He's got a couple shooters with him.
11:08Serious looking dudes.
11:10Feels like a car theft situation.
11:12That's a good idea.
11:13All right, give me two minutes.
11:23Hey.
11:24Counselor, punctuality is a quality I expect from all my employees.
11:31Well, having a newborn kind of throws punctuality out the window.
11:35Need I remind you while 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 on 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 unmuddied capacity.
11:55I have 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...
12:00Shut up.
12:02You seem confused about the dynamics at play here.
12:05You work for me now, which means what I say goes...
12:08I'm so sorry to interrupt, but someone just tried to steal my car from out front.
12:12The police will be here in a minute.
12:14Is that so?
12:17You know, the only thing worse than stealing in my book is lying.
12:24And yet you lie and steal for a living.
12:28What can I say?
12:31I'm a walking contradiction.
12:35Just think about what we just spoke on.
12:40It'd be better for everybody if I didn't have to say it again.
12:44Where are we right now, boot?
12:57San Vicente and...
12:59If you have to look, you don't know,
13:00and Trouble is not gonna wait for you to find a street sign.
13:03Got it. Sorry. I will do better.
13:06Mind if I take this?
13:09Whatever 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.
13:23I've been calling you all week, man. I could never reach you.
13:26Hollywood Division is running at 246.
13:28Look, hear me out before you say no, okay?
13:29I've got a really sweet deal for you.
13:31I'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.
13:40Seven out of 19, so 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?
13:46I mean, did you see a weapon?
13:48Did I say I saw one?
13:49Seven out of 19, security check.
13:51What was the drive-by shooting vehicle Hollywood was working?
13:54I didn't see...
13:55It came over the radio.
13:57Right, 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...
14:06All units unable to raise seven out of 19,
14:09last location near Stoner Park.
14:11Seven out of 100, copy missing officer.
14:13Oh, my God, an officer's missing?
14:15Two.
14:16Two officers are missing.
14:18Okay, that's even worse.
14:19Nothing.
14:20Should we look for them or should we find this trench coat guy?
14:22Seven out of 100, I copied the missing officer.
14:25Harper, it's Bradford, you guys code four?
14:27Code four.
14:29What's our call sign?
14:31Seven out of 19.
14:32Seven out of 19.
14:34Oh.
14:35We're the missing officers.
14:37Hmm.
14:38That is embarrassing.
14:39Yes, it is for you.
14:41I get a free pass your first week.
14:43All of your many failures are blamed on the Academy.
14:46So what have you learned?
14:48That taking the will is demanding enough,
14:51and I shouldn't be adding in personal phone calls into the mix.
14:56Hmm.
14:59There wasn't an armed man in a trench coat, was there?
15:01Hmm, mm-hmm.
15:03Hello.
15:04Didn't I see you guys on a milk carton?
15:09I don't get it.
15:11Because we were considered missing.
15:14They used to put pictures of missing kids on milk cartons.
15:17Yes, in the 80s.
15:18Yes, in the 80s.
15:19How did I end up to push on that?
15:21Oh, excuse me.
15:22Yeah, yeah.
15:23Hey, how come Bradford didn't choose Lucy to be his gopher?
15:25I don't know, but she's not being very adult about it.
15:28No.
15:29So, how is it riding with Tim?
15:31Oh, it's been great.
15:33You know, everyone always talks about how tough this Irish can be,
15:35but we've been having the best time.
15:37Really?
15:38That's awesome.
15:40So, you know, when I was riding with him,
15:43I learned some foolproof ways to stay on his good side.
15:46You know, if you want some tips.
15:48Yeah, that'll be great.
15:50Appreciate that.
15:59Let me see your hands!
16:00Get out of the car!
16:01Get out of the car!
16:02Let me see your hands!
16:03Put your guns down!
16:04Climate security!
16:05We got CCW permits!
16:06So we 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?
16:19Three shots.
16:20Grouped tight.
16:21High on the windshield.
16:22Searching for where the car was.
16:23I'd say our sniper is northeast.
16:25Control 7 out of 100.
16:26We got a shooter with a long gun.
16:27We're 16,000 block of Rochester Avenue.
16:29I need eastbound traffic.
16:30Veteran shutdown.
16:31Get SWAT en route.
16:32Harper Thornton, secure the scene.
16:34Nolan, Chad Webb.
16:35You're on me.
16:36Get inside!
16:37Get inside!
16:38Get inside!
16:39Get inside!
16:40Get inside!
16:41Get inside!
16:42Get inside!
16:43Get inside!
16:44Get inside!
16:45Get inside!
16:461-69!
16:47Hey!
16:48Stop right there!
16:51You didn't think I was going at you.
16:53You didn't think I was going around.
16:55You didn't think you were either.
16:56Get inside!
16:57Very cool!
16:58We're standing right didn't you see me.
16:59That was him,iku.
17:02And in there, I did not sleep.
17:03David principle-
17:05aquele animal was going up over.
17:06No!
17:07What?
17:08You did not!
17:09no!
17:10Come here.
17:11Chester Parking Garage, we're going up, requesting more units to cover the exits.
17:24Get your hands up!
17:41See, I gotta admit, I'm disappointed you didn't go after him.
17:48Oh, I was halfway up the window. Lucy had to pull me back.
17:51Mm-hmm. This guy's a pro, Sarge.
17:53Put three bullets through tempered glass into a moving vehicle and still dead-centering his target?
17:58Only a couple dozen people in the world who could do that.
18:00The secondary escape route screams elite training. Someone paid real money for this guy's services.
18:05You got a name on the target?
18:06Michael Silver, some kind of import-export guy.
18:08Hired a security company a week ago, didn't tell him why.
18:11Or at least they're not sharing with us.
18:13Intelligence unit is running Silver's name to see if he's in their database.
18:16Well, clearly he pissed off some bad people.
18:18Okay, we got an ID on our arson victim, Nelson Crespo.
18:22He's a 35-year-old restaurant manager, a couple of minor drug arrests,
18:25and he has an apartment in Culver City with his wife, Celia.
18:28Sir, we could handle the death notifications,
18:30see if Celia might shed some light on what our DB was doing in that house.
18:34All right, go ahead. I'll have Harper and Thorson work the sniper with Brad.
18:37Naila! Hey!
18:40James! What are you doing here?
18:42I was picking up a few things for the community center.
18:45I asked the same of you, but I have a good guess.
18:48Yeah, I came for the coffee, stayed for the sniper.
18:51This is my new rookie, Officer Aaron Thorson.
18:55Yeah, I remember your case.
18:58Man, I'm so sorry for everything you went through. Thanks.
19:01I happen to work with a lot of people who've been wrongfully incarcerated.
19:04It can help to talk to a therapist. I have some names if you need them.
19:07I appreciate that, but I already go twice a week.
19:10Okay, good.
19:12Well, you are very lucky to have this impressive woman as your training officer.
19:16Don't let her bite scare you. She got a lot of heart.
19:19Now, why would you go and tell him that?
19:22Just to make your job that much harder.
19:23Huh.
19:24Uh, we are going out again soon, right?
19:26You know it.
19:27All right. Good.
19:30Take care of yourself.
19:36What?
19:37Nothing.
19:38Good.
19:39Triple D's got ganged.
19:42Yeah.
19:43It doesn't make sense.
19:45Nelson 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, uh, and-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.
20:19If you can think of anything else, please call us, day or night.
20:24And again, I am truly sorry for your loss.
20:27You think she's in denial?
20:33Maybe.
20:34It should be nice to get some clarity.
20:37Well, hopefully the autopsy will give us that.
20:40All right, thanks for checking.
20:42Intelligence saying that Michael Silver isn't on the radar.
20:45How's that possible?
20:46No way a guy who gets popped by an elite sniper is squeaky clean.
20:50He's gotta have some criminal connection.
20:52I'm gonna call records.
20:53Maybe they have some information, some-
20:54No, it's a waste of time.
20:55I'll call it later when we get back to the station.
20:57Right.
20:58Weird case, huh?
21:02Oh, yeah.
21:03I'm good with weird.
21:07I'm a manx.
21:09I'm sorry.
21:11You're a what?
21:12A manx.
21:13A manx cat.
21:15It's my feline breed.
21:17It's my cat personality.
21:19What's your cat personality, sorry?
21:21Did Chen put you up to this?
21:24Put me up to what?
21:28Whoa.
21:29Oh, with the smell?
21:31Yeah, it smells like month-old eggs and maggot meat.
21:34I mean, you don't have to go in, but this is part of the job.
21:39No, I'm good.
21:40Can I just have a sec?
21:41Oh, yeah.
21:42No, gather yourself.
21:43Because what awaits smells like a septic tank filled with tumors.
21:48Okay.
21:49I see what you're doing.
21:50This is payback for me trying to get too familiar early.
21:53But you know what?
21:54It's all good.
21:55I can handle it.
21:57I'm just gonna have to cancel my reservation at Eliza and Elektra tonight
22:00because there's no way I'm eating after this.
22:02What, are you crazy?
22:03You have to book that place like six months in advance.
22:06I dream of eating there.
22:09You want the reservation?
22:11Seriously?
22:12Yeah.
22:13It's yours.
22:14If you stop torturing me.
22:16Deal.
22:17Yeah.
22:18I mean, the only question is, which boy tour are you taking?
22:23Is he gonna be the speed demon from this morning or the upright citizen from this afternoon?
22:28I mean, unless there's a third choice.
22:30No.
22:31It's James.
22:32It's definitely James.
22:33But he's probably busy.
22:35Text him and find out.
22:37I don't know.
22:38The vanishing three doubts is the worst.
22:52He's probably gonna respond later.
22:54Let's get back to work.
22:55Right.
22:56Detective.
22:57Nice to see you.
22:58Judging by the long sleeves and queasy demeanor, I say you have a new rookie.
23:00Yeah.
23:01Dr. Lowell, meet Officer Thorson.
23:02Of course.
23:03Now I recognize you.
23:04You know, I have to say that the forensic work in your case seemed pretty solid.
23:07You're lucky the prison set you free.
23:09I'm lucky the prison set you free.
23:10I'm lucky the prison set you free.
23:11I'm lucky the prison set you free.
23:12I'm lucky the prison set you free.
23:13I'm lucky the prison set you free.
23:14The appeals court understood that forensic science can be as corrupt as the rest of law enforcement.
23:37First autopsy?
23:39Yeah.
23:40I'm lucky the prison set you free.
23:42With the smell.
23:43I'm surprised your T.O. didn't tell you.
23:45I can't give away all my secrets in the first week, Doc.
23:49So you get anything useful from the autopsy?
23:52Yeah, I found this lodged in its T4 vertebra.
23:55Seems like it's from a 223.
23:59Yeah, possible 77 grain.
24:02Also known as NATO rounds for their full metal jackets.
24:05Yeah, very heavy and very lethal.
24:08And the skilled marksman's hands.
24:10Yeah, to make a long-distance shot from a 223 round
24:13would require a specialized weapon,
24:15which would seem to confirm that our shooter had 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, he's all yours.
24:29Let's go get you a ginger ale.
24:32And you're here for?
24:33Uh, Nelson Crespo.
24:34Ah, yes, the burn victim.
24:36You know, you keep running into conflagrations without oxygen masks,
24:39and you'll end up in one of my drawers.
24:40Yeah, we've been told.
24:41So, you got anything on Crespo?
24:43Well, 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
24:51and compound fractures to his pelvis.
24:54From when the ceiling fell in on him?
24:56No.
24:56Actually, 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.
25:04Hmm.
25:04Would explain why he got caught in the fire, he said.
25:07Oh, he didn't say it.
25:07There was no carbon monoxide in his blood
25:10or soot in his lungs.
25:11Nelson Crespo was dead before the fire even started.
25:17Hey, hope you and Jane fight the restaurant.
25:19Well, actually, he, uh, 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.
25:33Oh, Harper.
25:39Hey.
25:39Any leads on the sniper?
25:41No, uh, detectives are on it.
25:43Okay.
25:43When you catch him, ask him where he gets his gear.
25:46What are you going to do with a zip line?
25:47You know how far it is to my parking spot?
25:51Oh, Angela.
25:52Ask her about a baby.
25:54Hey, how's Jack?
25:55You can find out for yourself if you come over and babysit.
25:59Both our moms bailed.
26:00It's for you.
26:03Where are you?
26:05Thank you so much for doing this.
26:06Of course.
26:07It's our pleasure.
26:08Where is that little rascal?
26:11Wesley'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.
26:18No, please, 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?
26:40Uh, 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.
26:53Baby's asleep.
26:54Let's go before he realizes we're gone.
26:55Hi.
26:56Hi.
26:56Bye.
26:57Later.
26:57Bye.
26:57Bye.
26:57Bye.
26:57Bye.
26:57Bye.
26:57Bye.
26:59Don't call us.
27:00Of course.
27:01All right.
27:03So, what shall we do first?
27:06Order food or make out?
27:11Order first and make out while we wait.
27:14See, that's what I like about you.
27:16You're always thinking.
27:17That's what you like about me?
27:18Well, there's more and I could show you,
27:20but I'm on a schedule right now.
27:21I have to order dinner.
27:22How dare you play hard to get.
27:24Oh, and the sweet corn fried rice.
27:26Hell yeah.
27:27And meatballs.
27:29Oh, two orders.
27:30And, oh, the beet salad.
27:34Thanks.
27:36This is nice.
27:38This is amazing.
27:39Did you hear Nolan talking about his murder case?
27:44It sounded challenging in an interesting way.
27:49Mm-hmm.
27:49What?
27:50It 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?
27:59I guess that's why she couldn't babysit.
28:03Mm-hmm.
28:10Oh, my God.
28:12Ooh, I think I'm a little underdressed.
28:15Um, hey, it's L.A.
28:17I've seen people wear flip-flops to Michelin-star restaurant.
28:20No one even left.
28:21I'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.
28:33Uh, actually, you are both my dates.
28:39Funny story.
28:40Um, oh, no, she double-booked.
28:42You did not respond to my text.
28:44Yes, I'm pretty sure that I did.
28:47Ooh.
28:48Oh.
28:49No, um, I guess I never hit send.
28:52And then you called me.
28:54Your second option.
28:56No, it'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?
29:03We can't just stay and have some wine and talk about it?
29:06No.
29:07I've acted like I'm cool with being one of two guys you're dating
29:11because I like you so much.
29:14Well, that and I thought one day you might actually pick me.
29:18James, I...
29:19It's just a little hard on the ego, so...
29:22Okay.
29:23Enjoy the rest of your night.
29:26By the way,
29:28you 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.
29:46Counselor.
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.
30:08What the hell are you doing?
30:10It is a crime how easy it is
30:12to hack a baby monitor.
30:19You're making a mistake, threatening us.
30:22I don't make threats, I make promises.
30:25And I always follow through,
30:26just like I expect you to.
30:28From this moment on,
30:30whatever line I need you to cross,
30:31you will cross it.
30:33Whoever I tell you to represent,
30:34you'll take them on as a client.
30:35And if I need you to betray their interests
30:37and my benefit, you'll do it.
30:39I'll get disbarred.
30:41Not only if you get caught,
30:42this is what you agreed to trade
30:44for your wife and child.
30:48And you do not
30:49want to default on this debt.
30:55Oh, and you gotta order the pot de creme.
30:59It's sinful.
31:01If you want the job,
31:19all you gotta do is ask.
31:21What?
31:22You sabotaged Webb.
31:24I don't know what you're talking about.
31:26His cat personality?
31:27Well, that's got you written all over it.
31:30Look, if you want me to ride with you,
31:32you don't need to make up an excuse.
31:33Just ask me.
31:36So, good morning.
31:37So, we have a clearer understanding
31:39of yesterday's sniper shooting.
31:41According to the gang unit,
31:43the victim had a falling out with Elijah Stone.
31:45So, it was a contract killing.
31:47Looks like it.
31:48Gangs put together a list
31:50of potential shooters that Elijah might use.
31:52We ran it against military personnel records
31:55and came up with a dozen names.
31:57And you guessed it,
31:58detectives want patrol
32:00to do the initial camp.
32:01So, let's get to work.
32:04Oh, oh, one more thing.
32:06Sergeant.
32:08Yeah, um,
32:09I've decided to spread the love
32:10and give someone else a chance
32:13to be my gopher today.
32:14Smitty,
32:17you're up.
32:19Seriously?
32:20I'm sorry,
32:20you have something to add,
32:21officer, Jen?
32:22No.
32:23It's her.
32:24All right.
32:26That's it.
32:27Be safe out there.
32:30Sarge.
32:32The job doesn't require
32:34any heavy lifting, right?
32:35I've got a tricky bag.
32:37No.
32:38No lifting required.
32:39Including the war bags, right?
32:41Yeah, Smitty,
32:41I'll get the bags.
32:44How was the restaurant?
32:48What happened?
32:49They both showed up.
32:51Oh, no.
32:52Oh, yes.
32:53Yesterday I was dating
32:54two cute guys
32:55and today,
32:57zero.
32:58Well, it had to end
32:59at some point, right?
33:01I mean, if you cared
33:02about one of them,
33:02you would have
33:03made a decision a while ago.
33:05I liked the freedom.
33:07It was fun being able
33:08to take it slow.
33:11But?
33:11But I just,
33:14I can't get the look
33:16on James' face
33:17out of my head.
33:23And who's our
33:24next contestant?
33:25Aiden Merritt,
33:2632,
33:27one tour in Afghanistan,
33:28followed by six years
33:29as a private contractor.
33:30Any priors?
33:31A couple domestic complaints
33:33in Houston,
33:33an ex-girlfriend,
33:34but nothing since
33:35he moved to LA.
33:35Aiden Merritt?
33:39Yeah, that's me.
33:41What were you doing
33:41yesterday at noon?
33:43That's an ominous question.
33:45Um, why do you want to know?
33:47There was a sniper
33:48shooting yesterday.
33:48Oh, yeah, yeah.
33:49No, I did see that
33:50in the news.
33:51And because of my background,
33:52uh, yeah,
33:53I get why you want to see me.
33:54The answer to your question
33:56actually has some irony
33:57to it, though,
33:57because yesterday afternoon
33:58I was actually
33:59at the gun club downtown.
34:01Oh, that's good news.
34:02You got any proof of that?
34:02Um, I might, uh,
34:05I might still have a receipt
34:06for some ammo I bought.
34:08I could go look.
34:09Mind if we step inside?
34:11Uh, yeah.
34:12Yeah, I do.
34:13But I'll be right back out.
34:20I am getting a vibe.
34:21You getting a vibe?
34:22Big time vibe.
34:24Smart about that alibi, though.
34:25Gives him a reason
34:26to be in the vicinity.
34:30Lucy, I'm looking at a rifle.
34:32That gives us probable cause.
34:38I told you to wait outside, sir.
34:41I don't need you
34:42to show us your hands.
34:44Come on, man,
34:44this is a mistake.
34:45I got the receipt right here.
34:46Yes, sir,
34:46and we will get to that,
34:47but right now,
34:48my partner asked you
34:49to show us your hands.
34:52You really don't want me
34:53to do that.
34:54Yes, we do.
34:55Nice and slow.
34:57Okay.
34:57Okay.
34:57I already pulled the pen
35:03in the bedroom.
35:04I was planning to frag your car
35:05when you got back in
35:06Split Town
35:07before the smoke cleared,
35:08but...
35:10Yeah.
35:11Now you've forced the issue.
35:12You didn't survive a tour
35:13just to die like this.
35:15It's better than going to prison.
35:17Now,
35:18put down your guns
35:19or we can all learn
35:21what shrapnel tastes like.
35:25Okay.
35:27Fine.
35:28You win.
35:28What are you doing?
35:29You're a better shot than me.
35:30I'm a little quicker on my feet.
35:32Nolan?
35:33You got a better plan?
35:34What the hell
35:35are you two talking about?
35:36A fuse on a grenade
35:37takes approximately
35:38four seconds to detonate.
35:39He thinks if I shoot you
35:40in the medulla,
35:41he'll have enough time
35:42to grab the grenade
35:43after you drop it
35:43and throw it outside
35:44before it explodes.
35:45Nolan?
35:46Actually,
35:46I was planning on
35:47kicking it back
35:48into the house.
35:48Where he probably
35:49has more grenades?
35:52You're right.
35:53Change plan.
36:13Spoon's still attached.
36:14We're good.
36:17Boy, that worked.
36:19Seven out of 15.
36:21Requesting backup
36:21and a supervisor
36:22on our location.
36:24And the bomb squad.
36:25Please,
36:25can you take that outside
36:26while we wait?
36:27That's right.
36:28Seven out of 15.
36:28We're also going to need
36:29a bomb squad?
36:34Hello?
36:35Where the hell
36:36are all the baby monitors?
36:37Um,
36:39I threw them out.
36:41What?
36:41Why?
36:41There was a safety recall,
36:44fire hazard.
36:45But we can get new ones.
36:47Higher tech.
36:48Okay.
36:48Good catch.
36:52Babe, I gotta go.
36:54The secretary wasn't at her desk,
36:56so I figured I'd just pop in.
36:59Yeah.
37:00Sure.
37:00What can I do for you?
37:02Loving this new attitude,
37:04counselor.
37:05It's just the right balance
37:06between confidence
37:07and obsequiousness.
37:09I need you
37:12to deliver this
37:13to your new client.
37:17What new client?
37:17I'm Wesley Evers.
37:38I'll be representing you.
37:40It's about frigging time.
37:43Give it to me straight.
37:45How screwed am I?
37:46Well, we'll get to that.
37:51First, I have something for you.
37:55Ah.
37:56He hesitates.
37:58You must be new
37:59to working with our friend.
38:01Still in that phase
38:02where you think
38:02you have free will.
38:04Let me guess.
38:05You took an oath
38:06to uphold the law
38:07and not break it,
38:08so now you're torn?
38:10Do you possibly aid
38:11an abetted crime
38:12by giving me
38:12whatever's in that envelope?
38:14I mean,
38:15the very act
38:16of passing it to me
38:17is a likely ethics violation
38:18which could get you disbarred.
38:21And yet,
38:22you wouldn't be here
38:24if you had a choice,
38:25would you?
38:25actually, it's for you.
38:43You're lucky.
38:53You failed one of Elijah's tests,
38:55you end up as fertilizer.
38:57So,
38:58how do you plan
38:59to get me out
38:59of this mess?
39:00How's it going,
39:14Sarge?
39:16Fine.
39:18How come Smitty's
39:19not doing the paperwork?
39:23He claims to be
39:24allergic to paper.
39:25It's not funny.
39:28You should have
39:28just asked me.
39:30I was doing you
39:31a favor.
39:33How?
39:33By telling the entire station
39:34that you would rather
39:35ride with Smitty
39:36than me,
39:37your old boot?
39:38Look,
39:39some would see it
39:40as a demotion for you.
39:42Back with your
39:42training officer.
39:43Others might read
39:45something else into it.
39:47Well,
39:48why?
39:49Because I'm a girl
39:50and you're a boy?
39:51A very handsome boy.
39:53Oh,
39:53gag.
39:54Look,
39:55I really appreciate
39:56the intention,
39:57but screw what
39:57anyone else thinks.
39:59Being a sergeant's aide
40:00would...
40:01Go for it.
40:03Aid
40:04would make me
40:05stand out
40:06come promotion time.
40:07That alone
40:07makes it worth
40:08putting up
40:08with your
40:09Tim Tests
40:10and old school
40:11coat of honor
40:12again.
40:15So,
40:15are you saying
40:16you want the job?
40:17If you're saying
40:18you want me to do it.
40:23What the hell?
40:25Let's do it.
40:26You get here
40:27an hour before
40:27roll call tomorrow
40:28and I'll get you up
40:29to speed
40:29on all the new
40:29protocols.
40:30Will do.
40:34You're welcome.
40:35Good luck
40:36with your paperwork.
40:41James.
40:45What are you doing here?
40:47Well,
40:47Aaron asked me
40:48to come by.
40:49He said he needed
40:49to talk to me.
40:51That was a lie.
40:51I'm straight at
40:52playing matchmaker.
40:53Hold on, hold on.
40:54I'm just trying
40:55to do what I can
40:55to fix the mess
40:56that I caused.
40:57You were kind
40:57to me yesterday
40:58when we met
40:58so I feel compelled
41:00to return the favor.
41:01The second that I
41:02offered Detective Harper
41:03my reservation
41:05she invited you
41:06and when you
41:08didn't respond
41:08she was gonna
41:09go alone
41:10but I pushed her
41:11to invite the other guy.
41:14You know how close
41:15to the vest she plays
41:16things.
41:17I could still see
41:18how upset she was
41:19when she saw
41:20that she hurt you.
41:20So, maybe
41:22I don't know
41:23give her a second chance.
41:25I'll see you tomorrow.
41:29Is that all true?
41:34Yeah.
41:38I'm sorry
41:39I messed everything up.
41:41Okay.
41:48You can take me
41:49to dinner.
41:50I can.
41:51Yes, you can.
41:52Okay.
41:54But,
41:54if there's anything
41:55on the menu
41:56that I need to Google
41:57to figure out
41:58what it is
41:58I'm walking.
42:00No.
42:00You're not gonna have that.
42:01I can't do that.
42:03Refuse.
42:04Refuse.
42:04I've been thinking
42:04about your arson case.
42:06You killed someone
42:07you set a fire
42:08to cover it up.
42:09Pretty standard move.
42:10What's strange
42:11is the broken bones.
42:13So,
42:13I ran a search
42:14and found two recent
42:15unsolved cases
42:16with similar MOs.
42:18Both in Nevada
42:18both suffered broken legs
42:20before dying in a fire.
42:22Three murders
42:22with the same
42:23twisted MO.
42:24We've got a serial killer
42:26on our hands.
42:52Damn it.
