00:01Previously on The Rookie.
00:02Don't puke on him.
00:03This is not my first OD.
00:05I had this girlfriend back in high school.
00:07I found her after prom in a bathroom,
00:09and four years ago, I was diagnosed with cancer.
00:11Given our continued fallout from the mess
00:14Monica and Blair London created,
00:16Wesley Evers has been assigned here
00:18to make sure we're flying right.
00:20How am I supposed to work next to Angela Lopez
00:22when all I can think about is how much I want him?
00:24Malvado is a myth,
00:25the criminal equivalent of the boogeyman.
00:27Well, apparently, Southern Front hired him
00:29to kill Jason.
00:30We have the same goal.
00:31All you have to do is leave,
00:33and your problems go away.
00:34I can't do that.
00:39I know you like oat milk,
00:41but the store was out, so I got almond.
00:43I hope that's okay.
00:46Hello, my beautiful wife.
00:48Hey, just wanted to check in
00:49and see how it's going with my newer replacement model.
00:52Hi, Bailey.
00:53Yeah, Selene's not a replacement.
00:54She's a bait.
00:55And no one could replace you,
00:57because you are awesome.
00:59Now, is this really necessary?
01:01We have U.S. Marshals watching the house 24-7,
01:04and Jason is being hunted by a hitman.
01:07Can I please come home?
01:08Yeah, you can 100% come home
01:10if you can look me in the eye
01:11and tell me that Jason's not a relentless psychopath
01:14who would risk everything to get back at you
01:15for betraying him.
01:16Okay, fine.
01:17You win.
01:18But I'm climbing the walls here.
01:20No offense.
01:21None taken.
01:22I totally get it.
01:23I mean, with Rachel here, it is a little snug.
01:25Hey.
01:26Oh, so have we had any movement on the mystery woman
01:28that Jason is supposedly shacked up with?
01:30No, but given Jason's history,
01:32I would say she's probably the lonely wealthy type.
01:35Yeah, which would give him the resources
01:36to stay under the radar.
01:38Okay.
01:39Well, if I can't come home,
01:40can you please pack up some of my things
01:42and give them to Lucy?
01:43I'll text you a list.
01:44Yeah, of course.
01:45And, uh...
01:50Maybe a little later we can find some personal time?
01:53There will be no personal time
01:55until we're in our own bed.
01:56I will have Jason caught by tonight.
02:03Hey, I just want to reiterate
02:05I know what I did last week was wrong,
02:07and I take no delight
02:08in any of the public fanfare
02:10around my hero moment.
02:11That...
02:12Our hero...
02:13moment
02:14that we had together.
02:15I just...
02:16I fell out of my groove
02:17with the whole
02:18TO swap thing.
02:20So I'm just...
02:21I'm happy to be back with my OG.
02:23Oh, God.
02:24No one likes to suck up Ridley.
02:26Let's go.
02:27Yes, ma'am.
02:28Anything you want to add to this sad mea culpa?
02:29I'm not looking for any extra credit, sir.
02:31I just want to be prepared as possible
02:33for whatever the day hopes.
02:34Preparation is only half the battle.
02:36All I care about is how you perform on the streets
02:38when your adrenaline's high
02:39and you want to be an action star.
02:40Yes, sir.
02:41I'll keep the wild horse locked in the stable, sir.
02:45Check your phone on your own time, please.
02:47Yes, ma'am.
02:49Oh, wow.
02:50They just keep coming in.
02:51Okay.
02:52Seriously.
02:53What's going on right now?
02:54I'm sorry.
02:55I'm just...
02:56I'm waiting on my test results to come in.
02:57I'm a little bit paranoid.
02:58Oh, that's right.
02:59Um, did you get any news?
03:00No.
03:01These are just notifications that my name's being mentioned somewhere online.
03:04Are you serious?
03:06Yeah.
03:07Sorry.
03:08I'll put it away.
03:10Okay.
03:11Wow.
03:12They just...
03:13They're good.
03:14They're nice.
03:15Airplane mode.
03:16Right.
03:17Hey, Mr. Evers.
03:18Welcome back.
03:19Hi.
03:20Hi.
03:22Sean.
03:23Hey.
03:24Just wanted to be here to welcome you back.
03:25The office wasn't the same without you.
03:27I mean, I'm glad to be back.
03:28As is the entire Midwilshire Station.
03:30Apparently, they don't appreciate oversight.
03:31Yeah.
03:32Well, look, I'm sure you have a lot to catch up on.
03:35But the district attorney election is right around the corner.
03:37And I just wanted to be sure I could count on your endorsement, man.
03:40Hm.
03:41Wesley.
03:42Oh.
03:43You are aging backwards.
03:44Oh.
03:45I just wanted to say welcome back.
03:47And make sure you're all squared, pen-wise.
03:49Oh.
03:51Nice try, Vivian.
03:52But you're not gonna buy your way to a win here.
03:54Don't you find an insecure man such a turn-off?
03:56I am light years from insecure.
03:59Hm.
04:00Anyway, I would love your endorsement.
04:02Okay.
04:03Okay.
04:04Bye.
04:05Okay.
04:06You know, on my younger days, she really would've gotten under my skin.
04:09Right.
04:10Definitely not now.
04:11No.
04:12Hey, Sean.
04:15You have five minutes to talk about something that's been eating away at the very core of who I am?
04:19Well, that sounds like it's gonna take longer than five minutes, but yeah, sure. Okay.
04:22Thanks.
04:23Thanks.
04:24You're really the only person I can talk to about this.
04:26Um...
04:29I heard something on the Blair London tapes that has got me spinning.
04:32I thought you turned in your final report on those.
04:34No, I did.
04:35Uh, it's not criminal.
04:36It's...
04:38You know Keith Graham from Mid-Wilshire?
04:39Yeah, sure.
04:40He's a great guy.
04:41Annoyingly handsome.
04:42I mean, he's a solid detective.
04:43He was seeing Blair?
04:44Yeah.
04:45And during his sessions, he revealed that he has recurring intimate dreams about Angela.
04:53Yikes.
04:54Yeah.
04:56Well, look, you know that legally you cannot divulge any of that to her.
05:00That's a violation of his privacy and that puts the two of them in an incredibly uncomfortable position.
05:05I know.
05:06But it's driving me crazy.
05:07Why?
05:08Wes, I...
05:09You know, it seems to me it comes down to how secure you are in your marriage.
05:12I mean, he's definitely not the first guy to hit on your hot wife.
05:15He certainly won't be the last.
05:18Wait.
05:20Did you?
05:21I plead the fifth.
05:38All right.
05:39This is not gonna be easy.
05:40When the CHP calls for mutual aid, usually because things have gotten messy.
05:46Even for L.A.
05:47Now, wrecks like these are all about problem solving and accuracy.
05:54We have to be exact with every word in our reports.
05:57Our measurements can't be off, not even by an inch.
06:00That would mean a change in liability and then a half-decent lawyer could use that to discredit our entire investigation.
06:06That's mildly terrifying.
06:07Which is why I'm making you primary.
06:09What?
06:10Face your fears, Officer Juarez.
06:11But I...
06:12You can handle this.
06:13Tell me you can handle this.
06:14I-I can handle it.
06:16I can handle it.
06:18This gonna be as fun as putting socks on a rooster.
06:21Come to Chippy's.
06:23He's like 50 feet away.
06:24He for sure could've walked.
06:28Afternoon.
06:29Thanks for the assist.
06:30Where do you want us?
06:31Given the circumstances, we think this should be an LAPD-led investigation.
06:34No problem.
06:35Where will CHP be stationed?
06:37We'll be helping out at the off-ramp.
06:39Oh.
06:40Over in the shade?
06:41We're leaving grateful citizens from bumper to bumper traffic.
06:43That's nice.
06:44We just want the freeways up and running as quickly as possible.
06:50I told Juarez she's got primary on this.
06:52Bold.
06:53You either want to end her career right now or you honestly believe in her.
06:56What do you want us to do?
06:57Okay, well first thing first, we-we render safety and aid to all victims.
07:01That means that our number one priority is just clearing a path for the next ambulance.
07:05I gotta take this.
07:06Yeah.
07:09What's happening?
07:10Were you able to get that stuff from Lucy?
07:12She was gonna come by here at lunch and bring it to me.
07:14You forgot.
07:15Yeah, sorry.
07:16This morning's been just a little chaotic.
07:18But you stay put.
07:19I promise.
07:20I'll get it to you tonight or tomorrow at the latest.
07:22Okay.
07:23Yeah, stay safe.
07:24I love you.
07:25Love you too.
07:35How far, Boop?
07:3718.6 feet, sir.
07:39You sure about that?
07:40Positive, sir.
07:41Ridley, how far?
07:43Uh, 20.
07:45No, that's 20.1, 20.2.
07:47It just keeps, it keeps moving.
07:49I, oh, I have to, I have to stand still.
07:51Yeah, okay.
07:5220.2.
07:53Okay, that's right.
07:54That's right.
07:55Hey, what's next?
07:56Okay, well now, I mean, now you take a million photos.
07:59Just make sure you get the scene from every angle.
08:01You search the cars for any open containers, alcohol, drugs.
08:04If there's any indication that this is a DUI, that changes everything.
08:08Okay.
08:09Okay?
08:10Okay.
08:15Clear.
08:16Clear.
08:21Well, hey, hey.
08:22Did you get pictures from underneath the car and above as well?
08:25No.
08:26No, sorry, sorry, it's my bad.
08:27No, listen.
08:28I understand there's a lot going on right now, but I can't be holding your hand every step
08:32of the way.
08:33Yeah.
08:34Time to take the training wheels off there, really.
08:37Can you just lay off?
08:41You have no idea what anybody's going through, okay?
08:44My girlfriend died in high school in a car accident, and this whole thing is bringing
08:48up a lot of bad memories.
08:49I'm sorry, dude.
08:50I didn't know.
08:51Just think next time before you speak, okay?
08:53Officer Penn, you clear this car?
08:56Yes, sir.
08:57The driver was critical, went off in the first ambulance.
08:59You didn't think to make note of this?
09:01I'm sorry, sir.
09:03I thought we were checking for beer cans, not firearms.
09:06I mean, back home, every call you pull over, have a gun in the glove box.
09:10Bag this, please.
09:12Juarez?
09:13Yes, sir?
09:14What about this car?
09:15Do we have any information on this driver?
09:17Uh, no.
09:18Nobody's talked to him yet, but it is registered to a Harrison Novak.
09:25Officers!
09:26Yes, sir.
09:27Double time.
09:28Coming.
09:29You're right there.
09:30This is the LAPD.
09:31Is anyone in there?
09:32We're gonna get you out.
09:33Just hang on.
09:34Please, please, please.
09:35Oh, my God.
09:36We're gonna get you out.
09:37Just hang on.
09:38Please, please, please.
09:40Oh, my God.
09:41We need an ambulance!
09:45I've never seen him before, but he knew me.
09:49He was waiting.
09:50He called out Savannah, and when I turned, he sprayed me in the eyes with something.
09:55It burned really bad.
09:58Um, I tried to run, but, um, he hit me over the head, and the next thing I knew,
10:04I was tied up in the trunk.
10:07And we drove around forever.
10:10It felt like hours.
10:12And, uh, he was singing.
10:15He kept replaying the same dumb pop songs, singing along at the top of his lungs without
10:21care in the world.
10:22Well, you're safe now, okay?
10:23And the good news is we know who he is.
10:25Officers are kicking down his door as we speak.
10:30Police!
10:31Harrison Novak, we have a warrant for your arrest.
10:34Ridley.
10:55Clear!
10:56Clear!
10:57Clear!
10:58Clear!
11:00This place is giving me the creeps.
11:02Feels like teenage girls live here, not a 40-year-old dude.
11:05Get used to it.
11:06We're gonna be here for a minute.
11:07There's only property registered in his name.
11:08We need to search every inch of this place.
11:10So glove up, tear it apart.
11:12Yes, sir.
11:16How bad?
11:17Physically, she should be okay.
11:18Guy did not drop in public and kept in the trunk for hours.
11:21Being a woman is consistently terrifying.
11:23Then you have a daughter and it only gets worse.
11:25Harrison Novak was arrested three years ago for burglary and assault.
11:28He broke into a woman's home and choked her.
11:30Seemed open and shut, but evidence was compromised and the prosecution lost the case at trial to
11:35Novak's hotshot lawyer.
11:36Who the hell was that?
11:38Your husband.
11:39Yeah, I recognize the case.
11:40The cops screwed up the chain of evidence and I got him acquitted.
11:42Why?
11:43We found a girl in his trunk in pretty bad shape.
11:45He's currently at large, so if you can give us anything, that might help.
11:48I'll pull his file and get it to you ASAP.
11:52Let me know if there's anything else I can do.
11:54Thanks.
11:58You remember the Harrison Novak case?
12:00Uh, yeah, of course.
12:01That's the only time I lost a trial. Why?
12:03Novak just abducted a woman.
12:05Maybe not the first.
12:07Well, that's not good.
12:08For either of us.
12:09Hey, I'm sorry again for not reporting the gun, but I did find out the owner had purchased illegally and it was registered.
12:23That's not the point.
12:24The cars are frequently broken into by criminals who do not have a license to carry.
12:28A weapon not registered to them is a win for the criminal community.
12:31Understood.
12:32It won't happen again.
12:33You know what?
12:34I recommend you undergo additional training and testing all weekend, plus an additional three hours a day for the next two weeks.
12:39What? It was a simple mistake.
12:41Look, if I can't trust you to clock loaded weapons in plain sight, what else can't I trust you with?
13:04What's wrong?
13:05I lost her.
13:06She left the apartment.
13:07I got blocked in by a truck.
13:09Hello?
13:10Come on, come on.
13:16She's ducking my call.
13:17Well, you can track her phone, right?
13:29She's headed towards Echo Park, the firehouse. Punch it.
13:32Oh, this guy is totally a psycho.
13:40You wore his outside shoes right in the bedroom.
13:45Wait, these things gotta be caked in evidence, right?
13:47Potentially.
13:48Take a photo and then bag them.
13:51Hey, Ridley, can I ask you a question about something from earlier?
13:55Yeah, that's not really my favorite way to start a conversation, but sure.
13:59A few weeks ago, you told me that your girlfriend overdosed.
14:02And then earlier, I swear, I thought I heard you tell Miles that she died in a car accident.
14:06Yeah.
14:07Sorry, I should have made that more clear.
14:09Sarah didn't actually die from the OD.
14:12We got super lucky.
14:13My friend's daddy's a doctor, and he came home just in time with some naloxone.
14:17And then she died in a car accident?
14:19No, that was a different girlfriend a year later.
14:22Savannah wasn't a one-off.
14:24I found this hidden in the hallway closet.
14:26Oh, my God.
14:28More victims.
14:32Hello?
14:33Hey, Counselor.
14:34Harrison Novak.
14:35You helped me out of a jam a few years ago?
14:36Of course.
14:37I'm just finishing up a meeting.
14:38Can I call you right back?
14:39That's okay.
14:40I can hold.
14:41I got time.
14:42I've got Harrison Novak on the phone.
14:43He wants me to represent him.
14:44What's my ethical obligation here?
14:45Do I have to tell him I'm no longer a defense attorney?
14:47Uh, no.
14:48But as a prosecutor, the only thing you can't do is agree to represent him.
14:49Other than that, you can tell him anything he needs to hear to keep him on the line.
14:53Okay.
14:54Angela, it's Del Monte.
14:55I've got your husband here.
14:56He's talking to Novak on his cell phone right now.
14:57Hot damn.
14:58Setting up a trace now.
14:59Okay, I'm putting on speaker.
15:00Wesley, just keep him talking as long as you can.
15:01I'll meet you.
15:02I'll meet you.
15:03I'll meet you.
15:04You're going to meet you.
15:05I'll meet you.
15:06You're going to meet you.
15:07I'll meet you.
15:08You're going to meet you.
15:09I'll meet you.
15:10I'll meet you.
15:11I'll meet you.
15:12I'll meet you.
15:13I'll meet you.
15:14I'll meet you.
15:15Wesley, just keep him talking as long as you can.
15:18I'll meet my phone so we can listen.
15:19All right, great.
15:20I'm going over to him now.
15:22Sorry to keep you waiting.
15:23How can I help?
15:24No problems.
15:25Look, I know you're a very busy guy, so I will skip the foreplay.
15:28I was super impressed with how you handled my case back in the day, and I find myself
15:33in a bit of fresh legal jeopardy.
15:36How bad are we talking?
15:37I don't like to use that word.
15:39Bad.
15:40So judgy.
15:41Good.
15:42Bad.
15:43Right.
15:44Well, just choices and decisions repressed people use to keep more free-thinking individuals
15:49in a box.
15:50Right.
15:51Well, I wasn't trying to judge.
15:52I just need to know a little more of what I'm getting into before I commit.
15:55Well, I can tell you this much.
15:56Most people might not like what I do, who I am, but everyone inflicts and contributes
16:01to some level of pain and suffering.
16:04Might step on a bug or cook a steak.
16:07Let's do my version of that.
16:09Only on a bigger, more connected level with larger and more conscious animals.
16:14Are you saying you've killed people?
16:15Are you saying you're my lawyer?
16:16Mr. Novak, I'm just trying to make sure we're both on the same page.
16:19This is taking longer than I'd wanted, and I have a bit of a ticking clock problem.
16:22I'd wanted to achieve so much more by the end of my story.
16:25A certain number of accomplishments to make the world take notice.
16:30So, now I find myself having to get into the volume business.
16:33Wait, why don't we get together in person and discuss?
16:36I gotta go.
16:37But don't worry.
16:38He'll probably see me later tonight on your TV.
16:39Wait.
16:40Ciao for now.
16:41Please, tell me you got a location.
16:44He's calling from Sorority Row.
16:46He's gonna pull a Ted Bundy.
16:48I'm sending every cop in the city, but I'm not sure we're gonna make it there in time.
16:51Say a prayer.
17:06Who is it?
17:23I, uh, Melanie?
17:25I think I have your package.
17:28It got delivered to my place by mistake.
17:33For you.
17:34Thanks so much.
17:35Huh?
17:54Police!
18:00Step away!
18:05Everybody okay?
18:06If any of you ladies are looking to join the LAPD, I'd like to offer a letter of recommendation written by me.
18:20Personally.
18:21Ugh.
18:22Get back.
18:23This is a crime scene.
18:24Let me through him with the DA's office.
18:25I need to get in there.
18:26I said back up!
18:27Angela!
18:28Hold on.
18:29Angela!
18:30Stand down!
18:31He's allowed to be here.
18:32Hey, what happened in there?
18:33Please tell me no one's dead.
18:34No one is dead.
18:35In fact, he got his ass kicked.
18:36Hey, it's okay.
18:37You did good.
18:38You're the reason we got this guy.
18:39I'm also the reason he's been free to kill innocent women for the past three years.
18:40His actions are not your fault.
18:41You were just doing your job.
18:42Hey, I thought you were too busy for me.
18:43You changed your mind.
18:44I'm not a defense lawyer anymore.
18:45Prosecutor now.
18:46Tricky.
18:47That's how the cops got here so quick.
18:48Yeah, you did good.
18:49I'm not allowed to be here.
18:50Hey, what happened in there?
18:51Please tell me no one's dead.
18:52No one is dead.
18:53In fact, he got his ass kicked.
18:54Hey, it's okay.
18:55You did good.
18:56You're the reason we got this guy.
18:57I'm also the reason that he's been free to kill innocent women for the past three years.
18:59His actions are not your fault.
19:00You were just doing your job.
19:01Okay.
19:02Hey.
19:03Thought you were too busy for me.
19:04You changed your mind.
19:05I'm not a defense lawyer anymore.
19:07Prosecutor now.
19:08Tricky.
19:09That's how the cops got here so quick.
19:11Yeah, you're lucky we did.
19:12Those girls were about to kill you.
19:14Get in.
19:15We should get him back to the station as soon as possible.
19:18He is a talker.
19:19Yeah, go.
19:20I'll be fine.
19:21You sure?
19:22Yeah.
19:23Go.
19:24Hmm.
19:39Put your hands on the wheel.
20:04I'm impressed.
20:05Like I care.
20:06Who are you?
20:07Why are you following me?
20:08Did Jason send you?
20:09No.
20:10I'm the man hunting your ex-husband.
20:11Malvado.
20:12I'm not your enemy.
20:13We want the same thing.
20:14Jason dead.
20:15You're a wanted man.
20:16I should call 911.
20:17Go ahead.
20:18Have me arrested.
20:19And spend the rest of your life worrying about Jason.
20:21Or you could let me go and never have to worry about him again.
20:40May I?
20:45This number cannot be traced, but messages will get back to me.
20:59If you hear of Jason's whereabouts, let me know.
21:04And I will put an end to your nightmare.
21:15Hey, you okay?
21:29Hey.
21:30Yeah, I'm fine.
21:31What were you thinking?
21:32Do you have any idea how dangerous this was?
21:34Oh, look.
21:35My phone is ringing.
21:37The idea was that you stay in the apartment.
21:39All of a sudden I got marshals blowing up my phone telling me you've gone missing.
21:42You almost gave me a heart attack.
21:43Wait, how did the marshals know I left?
21:45Are they tracking my phone?
21:47We had a guy posted outside Lucy's apartment.
21:49To spy on me?
21:50To protect you.
21:51In case Jason saw through the ruse and went after you there.
21:54Can we get back in the shop, please?
21:55Why didn't you tell me?
21:56That's not the point.
21:57What were you even doing down here in the first place?
22:00It doesn't matter.
22:08Before we get started, I'd like to get us on the same page as to how we speak to each other.
22:12I mean, we may have differing philosophies, but it doesn't mean we can't be cordial to one another.
22:21You don't make the rules here.
22:23I think I kind of do.
22:25I mean, you must have a lot of very distressed families who are desperate for answers, and I am willing to tell you everything.
22:34But I expect to be treated like a person, not a monster.
22:37Sure, we can do that. We will just listen. Whatever you want to tell us.
22:42These on?
22:44Yes, you're being recorded.
22:47It's not. The killing.
22:52You'd think it would be.
22:57It's the least interesting part.
23:00The anticipation.
23:03The planning.
23:06That puts wind in my sails.
23:08The killing itself is more like eating, for me.
23:10Necessary, but...
23:12Not as holistically stimulating as the lead-up.
23:19Now...
23:21Hunting...
23:23My victims...
23:26Really feeling their fear...
23:31That just...
23:34Fills me up.
23:36When the killing's done, I tend to feel a little...
23:41Empty...
23:42Inside.
23:44Lonely, even.
23:45So then I...
23:48Have to do it again.
23:49These are human beings you are talking about.
23:53You don't feel any kind of remorse.
23:55Do you feel remorse when you eat a burger?
23:58What did you do with the bodies?
24:00Buried them.
24:01Where?
24:02How about I show you?
24:11All right, you can stay here till the end of shift.
24:13And then Lucy will be here to bring you back to her apartment.
24:17I'm your wife, John. I don't work for you.
24:19And in case you've forgotten, I literally spent the last three weeks
24:22doing tactical military training in Germany.
24:24I don't need you to protect me.
24:26Nolan, Novak gave up the location of his dump site.
24:29You just on the way, I need you guys to meet him there.
24:31Right.
24:32Um, we'll finish this later.
24:33Mm-hmm.
24:34Promise.
24:35Uh, would you watch her, please?
24:38You're a grown-ass woman. I'm not babysitting you.
24:47Look there! Look out!
24:50Alright, go, let's go, let's go.
24:51Hey, we're here!
24:52Hey there, if you really want to be shooting from the outside, I'm completely backlit.
25:21And, no offense, but if you want to have an easy time selling this doc to Hulu or whatever, you want to see my face and not, uh, random cops.
25:29It's what people actually care about.
25:32It's something here.
25:33Hey, we got something.
25:51Where are they going?
26:04I don't know.
26:07I didn't bury anyone over there.
26:09They're all wrapped the same.
26:26They must be yours.
26:27I swear to God, all my kills are back there.
26:30These aren't mine.
26:31I'm going to have nightmares about that burial site.
26:40Shouldn't I be more hardened by now?
26:41I should, right?
26:43No, your empathy is your best quality.
26:45Really?
26:46Best quality?
26:47Well, there are certain others best discussed in a non-professional setting.
26:51Thanks for coming right over.
26:55Yeah, of course.
26:56You saw the bodies?
26:57Yes, we didn't unwrap any of them for fear of compromising DNA evidence.
27:01They're all being sent to our morgue facility downtown.
27:03Give us the room, guys.
27:05Hey, good to see you again.
27:07Hey.
27:07Likewise.
27:08Wish it was over a cafe americano, but here we are.
27:11Hi, nice to see you.
27:12Who wants to start?
27:13I will.
27:13As I told Garza, it seems clear that we have a second serial killer at large.
27:18Harrison Novak has been falling all over himself to take credit for his kills, but he seemed
27:22genuinely shocked when we uncovered those bodies.
27:24Nikki knows who the second killer is?
27:26Maybe, but it feels unlikely.
27:27I agree with Nyla.
27:28Novak seemed totally thrown by the bodies and worried that this killer would somehow overshadow him.
27:33Okay, so what's our first step?
27:35Mine is a thorough examination of all the victims, which will take days, if not weeks.
27:40In the short term, we need to try to figure out a connection between the two killers.
27:43Well, let's say Harper's intuition is right and Novak doesn't know the identity of the second killer.
27:48I mean, it can't be a coincidence that number two used the same green tarp to bury his victims.
27:54He's clearly piggybacking off of Novak's burial site, right?
27:56Which would indicate that killer number two is trying to hide his crimes inside Novak's.
28:01Which is a complete opposite of Harrison Novak, a killer who's desperate for recognition.
28:06How did number two know about the burial site?
28:08I mean, they must have crossed paths somewhere, right?
28:10Theoretically, but without even the slightest hint of where to start looking,
28:13we're talking about an infinitely large haystack hiding a very small needle.
28:16Hope I'm not interrupting, but I might have a smaller haystack for you to search.
28:19I dug through my notes in the Harrison Novak case file.
28:21When we first met, he mentioned that he had spent some time in a psychiatric facility.
28:25That wasn't in his file.
28:26Well, he was 15.
28:27Voluntary admission, not criminal.
28:29Which facility?
28:30Westview, out in Chatsworth.
28:31We've been there before.
28:32Director's a pill.
28:33We'll go talk to her.
28:34Do you mind expediting a warrant?
28:35She's not going to give us anything unless she has to.
28:37Yeah, consider it done.
28:38You do know not everyone suffering from mental illness is a serial killer.
28:43Of course, but we did just arrest one, and he was treated at this facility 15 years ago.
28:48So we're not just here because we heard how personable the staff is.
28:51Okay, listen, we know that this is a sensitive subject,
28:54but most serial killers suffer from some sort of psychosis or antisocial personality disorder.
28:59Nice!
29:00Which Psychology 101 book did you pull that from?
29:03I'm about to put her in a different kind of hospital.
29:05With all due respect, we just pulled more than a dozen bodies out of a field.
29:09And now we have a court order for your patient records.
29:11Either you give us access to those records now or later, after you spent the weekend in jail.
29:17Are you aware people suffering from mental illness are actually more likely to be victims of violent crime?
29:22Yes, but that's not relevant at this moment.
29:25So are you going to give us the list of patients and staff who are here with Novak or not?
29:29It'll take a while to assemble.
29:31You have 12 hours.
29:33And we don't do grace periods.
29:36I really thought you were going to hurt her there for a minute.
29:38Me too.
29:39And you weren't exactly playing good cop either.
29:42Whatever gets the job done.
29:52What?
29:57Satan Green Tarp, you want to go in?
29:59As opposed to calling in 100 cops to do it for us?
30:02No guts, no glory.
30:03No glory.
30:05Control, this is Detective Lopez.
30:09Harper and I are code 6 on a follow-up at Westview Psychiatric Hospital.
30:13Start up another unit in case we come across anything.
30:15Copy that, Detective.
30:16Copy.
30:17You ready?
30:38Ready.
30:39Ready.
30:41Ready.
30:42Ready.
30:42Ready.
30:43You okay?
30:57Yeah, I'm just regretting my choice of footwear.
31:00I can't believe they still have all this equipment.
31:07You never know when the lobotomies will come back in the start.
31:10There's something written here.
31:23Maybe from an old patient?
31:27I feel like I've seen this movie before.
31:39Yeah, but they didn't have guns.
31:44Control, this situation is escalating.
31:46Attach a few more units.
31:47Code 3.
31:48Copy that, Detective.
31:49I am starting to regret more than just my shoe choice.
31:59No guts, no glory, remember?
32:01It's not fair using my bravada against me.
32:07Police!
32:08Stop, police!
32:24Help me.
32:28He's coming back.
32:31You have to get me out of here.
32:32He's going to kill us.
32:34Are there others?
32:35Does he have someone else?
32:35I don't know, please!
32:37He needs medical attention now.
32:38All right, go get him to safety.
32:40I got this gun.
33:05I got this gun.
33:08Please.
33:09I got this gun.
33:11All right.
33:12I don't know.
33:42I don't know.
34:12I don't know.
34:19I don't know.
34:21Naila, here, are you okay?
34:38No, he injected me with something, I can't feel my legs.
34:43Okay, hang on, there's an ambulance on the way.
34:45This is Lopez, officer down, Westview basement.
34:48Conscious and breathing, but injected with some type of paralytic and can't move her legs.
34:52We need those EMTs down here now.
34:54Copy that, Detective, they're on their way.
34:56It's gonna be okay.
35:08How you doing?
35:09Better.
35:10My feeling's mostly back.
35:11My best guess is short-term paralytic.
35:14Look, I'll just try not to think too hard about how dirty all the needles were down there.
35:19Probably for the best.
35:20Any sign of our suspect?
35:22No, he clearly had an escape route.
35:24Psych Hospital just sent the list of patients and employees.
35:27It's a lot of names.
35:29FBI's digging in.
35:30How's the guy we pulled out of there?
35:31Remy Darden.
35:32He's in rough shape.
35:35Hopefully he's stable enough in the morning to talk to us.
35:38And James will be here soon.
35:40Yes.
35:40I didn't tell him what really happened, just that you suffered a minor injury on the job.
35:45Thanks.
35:47You want to talk about how scary that was?
35:49Nope.
35:51You want a hug?
35:52No.
35:56Yes.
35:56Nolan, my office.
36:16Yes, sir.
36:17I got a call from Detroit PD.
36:20They pulled Prince from a liquor store robbery last night.
36:22Were they Pete's?
36:23They were Pete's, weren't they?
36:25Jason Weillers.
36:27Detroit, Michigan?
36:28I ran a Vycap search.
36:30There was another hit on Jason's prints two days before outside of Provo.
36:34Looks like Mel Votto's got him spooked.
36:35He's been heading east.
36:37Get as far away from L.A. as he can.
36:39I'm a little surprised he picked survival over revenge, but I'll take it.
36:42I gave Detroit PD your info.
36:44They'll call if they have anything more.
36:46Thank you, sir.
36:48Hold up.
36:48One more thing.
36:50I've been overprotective, and if Bailey divorces me, no one will blame her.
36:55If I'm in your shoes, I'm just as crazed.
36:58But you have to live your lives.
37:01Yes, sir.
37:01I'll make you happier than ever.
37:05It's just around the corner.
37:08Where do you think you're going?
37:11Home feels like the wrong answer, but I'm not sure why.
37:14Sawed off shotgun, dagger, nunchucks, AR-15.
37:17Which two violate the same penal code?
37:19We doing this now.
37:19You need to know the law cold, no matter how tired you are, no matter how many of the things are going on.
37:23Right.
37:25Sawed off shotgun and dagger.
37:27Violation of 12020, possession of an illegal weapon.
37:30What about nunchucks?
37:31Formerly a violation of 12020, but currently no violation at all.
37:35They became legal in 2023.
37:37Good.
37:38You're dismissed.
37:39Sergeant, I appreciate it.
37:43How hard you're on me and how dedicated you are at doing the job right.
37:46And I swear I'm not kissing up.
37:47Where I'm from, a lot of cops don't have that same love of diligence.
37:50Some were transplants who had failed from other departments.
37:53They didn't care the way that you do.
37:55You know, I guess I really understand how much I had to learn.
37:58So, thank you.
38:00Dismissed.
38:01Yes, sir.
38:02I know that logically, intellectually, even legally, I'm not to blame for Novak's crimes, but...
38:18Emotionally, I'm struggling.
38:21Well, you're not a robot, Wes.
38:23I mean, I would actually be more concerned if you felt nothing after all this.
38:27But on the bright side, at least you've forgotten about the detective who has the hots for your wife, right?
38:32Well, now I'm thinking about him.
38:33Anyway.
38:35What is this?
38:36You're having a wake for Sean's political career.
38:38Didn't invite me.
38:39I made a sound.
38:40Only a bat could hear.
38:41I figured that would do the trick.
38:42Oh.
38:43Hi.
38:43It is so nice to see you retain your sense of humor given the end of your campaign.
38:48Huh.
38:49I mean, who would elect a DA who is so instrumental in letting a serial killer go free?
38:53Okay.
38:54You and I both know that what happened is far more complicated than that.
38:58Of course.
38:59But voters don't do complicated.
39:00You should withdraw before you get embarrassed at the polls.
39:04Mm-hmm.
39:05It's really nice to have you back.
39:07Mm-hmm.
39:10She's lovely.
39:11Mm-hmm.
39:11Oh.
39:13Third down and three inside the 25-yard line.
39:16Here's the snake.
39:17And he hands off to number two with a snake.
39:20Stay.
39:22Hey.
39:23Hey.
39:24Um, how much do you trust the LAPD background checks?
39:27I'm sorry.
39:27Why are you at my door asking me that?
39:29Come on.
39:29Okay.
39:30So, Seth told me that his high school girlfriend died of an OD, but then he told Miles that she
39:35died in a car accident.
39:36I confronted him about it.
39:37He covered it pretty well, said that they were different girlfriends, but I, that, that
39:42seems pretty unlikely.
39:43I just can't shake this feeling that there's something off with him.
39:46Look, our background checks are pretty invasive.
39:48Andy would have had to pass a polygraph test, which we both know those are illuminating.
39:53If he was hiding something, I think it would have come out.
39:56You're right.
39:57But you're still not satisfied.
39:58No, I, I'm sorry.
40:01I, okay.
40:04Oh.
40:05Oh, my gosh.
40:06Hey, go, Joe.
40:09You like a butt scratch?
40:11I miss you.
40:13Feelings mutual.
40:13Oh.
40:16Look, I, I know it's late, and I don't have much in the way of food, but I could order
40:22something.
40:24Um, oh, no, no, I should, um, I'm going to go, and so have a good night.
40:37You too.
40:38Yeah, okay.
40:39Okay.
40:40All right.
40:43Ow.
40:43Okay.
40:46I'm happy to come back whenever you need me.
40:56I think, uh, we're all set.
40:57Thanks for the offer.
41:00I'm happy to be back.
41:02Thank you so much.
41:03Yeah.
41:05All righty.
41:06Bye, guys.
41:07Bye.
41:07See you soon.
41:07Bye.
41:08Bye.
41:08See you soon.
41:08Bye.
41:08Bye.
41:08See you soon.
41:08Bye.
41:08Bye.
41:08Bye.
41:08Bye.
41:09Bye.
41:09Bye.
41:09Bye.
41:09Bye.
41:10Bye.
41:10Bye.
41:11Bye.
41:11Bye.
41:11Bye.
41:12Bye.
41:13Bye.
41:13Bye.
41:14Bye.
41:15Bye.
41:16Bye.
41:16Well, I'm sorry for treating you like a damsel in distress when you are anything but.
41:23You are strong.
41:23You are smart.
41:33And you are more than capable of handling yourself.
41:34Well, I knew you were coming from a good place.
41:36I just, in the future, I recommend asking instead of telling.
41:40Agreed. Let me try.
41:42Would you care to spend some quality personal time with me in our quality personal bed?
41:50Perfect.
41:53I'm just going to get us a water, you know, for after.
41:56Excellent. Hydrate.
