00:00Previously on The Rookie.
00:01I've been thinking about taking the sergeant's exam.
00:04If you pass, I wouldn't be your supervisor anymore.
00:07So you two can get back together.
00:09No, it's a good move for her career.
00:11But yeah, it's come up.
00:12What's the new boo?
00:13Tamara, South.
00:15It's a pleasure to meet you.
00:16Tamara and Seth are on a date.
00:19They'd be so cute.
00:20I have caught Seth in several serious lies.
00:23You think he's lying about his cancer coming back?
00:26Tamara, you can't date him.
00:27That's not up to you.
00:30I don't want to fly without you.
00:33I don't want to live my life without you.
00:36All I ever do is think about you.
00:39Tell me you saw that game last night.
00:40Every painful second.
00:43Morning, y'all.
00:44It's as hot as a Billy Go and a pepper patch out there.
00:48New rookie?
00:49Not that I know of.
00:53Good morning.
00:58The hell are you doing here?
01:00I'm back in the FTO program.
01:08This can't be happening.
01:10I mean, he lied about having cancer
01:11and a host of other things.
01:13Legally, he was fired because he refused
01:15to follow lawful order to take a blood test.
01:17Ridley claims that he was duped by his oncologist
01:20into believing he was sick when he wasn't.
01:21He sued the city for wrongful termination
01:24and medical discrimination.
01:25Why doesn't the city fight it?
01:26Bad publicity, a weak case,
01:28a sympathetic plaintiff.
01:29Take your pick.
01:30Point is, he's back and we need someone to train him.
01:33Well, I don't want him.
01:35I am not a T.O. anymore.
01:36Relax.
01:36You're off the hook.
01:37The button's on, Nolan.
01:40Understood.
01:41He can still be washed out for cause,
01:43but every infraction has to be documented.
01:45Otherwise, he'll just launch a fresh lawsuit
01:47alleging retaliation.
01:49What is she doing here?
01:51Sorry, excuse me.
01:52Hey, I didn't know you were stopping by.
01:55Oh, my gosh.
01:56Hi.
01:58Yeah, I gave Seth a ride.
02:00Oh.
02:01He was nervous about the reception he was gonna get.
02:03Yeah, I mean, he should be.
02:05Promise me you'll hear him out.
02:06Seth is very vulnerable right now and he needs a friend.
02:09Tamara, I was never his friend.
02:10I was his training officer and he...
02:13It doesn't matter.
02:14I mean, Nolan's gonna be training him
02:15so we probably won't even cross paths that much, so...
02:17Can we all have dinner tonight away from work
02:19so you get to know the real Seth?
02:22Please, just hear him out.
02:26I would only say yes to you.
02:28Come on.
02:49Officer Ridley, we'll be skipping roll call today.
02:51Get the war bags, set up the shop.
02:52Yes, sir.
02:59This is not a do-over.
03:03Your previous errors have been documented.
03:05You bring them with you into my shop.
03:07Yes, sir, but I need you to know that the doctor tricked me too.
03:09That was an insurance scam.
03:11Let me be perfectly clear.
03:12I don't care.
03:13No, that's not even accurate.
03:14I don't believe you and I won't believe anything you say
03:18without independent verification.
03:20I am your nightmare, T.O.
03:22I was raised by a pathological liar,
03:25a woman who had absolutely no compunctions
03:27about lying to her own child about everything.
03:30The truth was whatever served her and only her.
03:34The only thing that matters to me are actions.
03:37You do your job perfectly,
03:39and I'll have no choice but to pass you.
03:41Do you understand?
03:41Yes, sir.
03:43All right, let's go have a great day.
03:45He is a danger to any case he works on
03:47and any cop he works beside.
03:49I mean, he had to have seen that coming.
03:50Oh, well, if he did and came back anyway,
03:52maybe it says something about how dedicated he is to the job.
03:55Oh, no, no, no, no, no.
03:57This is an ego thing.
03:58What does Tamara say?
04:02She puppy-eyed me into having dinner with them.
04:05You fell for that?
04:06I know, I know.
04:09What if you and Raj join us for dinner?
04:12I really need the buffer.
04:13I just shunned the guy.
04:15Now you want me to have dinner with him?
04:17Please?
04:18I'll make my lasagna.
04:19You love my lasagna.
04:20We don't have a dining room table,
04:22and dinner for five is going to be tight.
04:24That's true.
04:26Uh.
04:29Hey.
04:29Hi.
04:30What are you doing tonight?
04:31Call of duty.
04:32Why?
04:33What would you say to a home cooked meal?
04:35I'd ask what the catch is.
04:37Seth will be there.
04:38What?
04:39What?
04:39Hey, Miles.
04:40Wait, you're cooking for him?
04:42It's complicated.
04:43They were puppy-eyed.
04:44Look, the point is our table won't fit everybody, and...
04:48And mine will.
04:49Yeah.
04:50Please?
04:51I'll... I'll owe you.
04:53Okay, uh, seven o'clock.
04:55Yeah, that sounds great.
04:56We'll be there.
04:59I owe you.
05:00Hey, shut up.
05:01I'm hearing the city cut Seth in check for back pay.
05:04Ten grand.
05:06Now he gets a free meal.
05:07All right, boot.
05:08I'm going to give you some sage words of advice.
05:10You ready?
05:10Put Seth Ridley out of your mind.
05:13He's just frustrated.
05:14Mark my words.
05:15This guy will wash out again.
05:17Okay, you can tangle up in his drama.
05:18He'll pull you down with him.
05:19Seven out of 100.
05:20We have reached Seth Ridley.
05:21Seven out of 100.
05:22We have reports of a reckless driver on the north side of Hanson Reservoir.
05:26Copy.
05:26Show's responding.
05:29Sir!
05:30We are cruisin' post right now, bitches!
05:34Holy gas, though!
05:36Literally!
05:37I got my foot on the gas because we're pushing 90!
05:41It is leading!
05:42Hey, hey.
05:43Don't you know your boy still got time for a little bit of this?
05:47Ah!
05:50What is up, you little freaks?
05:53Make sure to keep sharing this stream.
05:55We gotta keep the views high because looking this good isn't cheap.
05:59First 50 people to comment on my last post gets a shout out in this stream.
06:05Whoa!
06:06We are flying!
06:07No gap!
06:07Don't at me because you ain't me!
06:17Yeet!
06:25115 FBH down Foothill Boulevard!
06:29This idiot famous or something?
06:31That's Tulsa Braydon.
06:32He was on Clip Top.
06:33He and his buddies performed dangerous stunts for life and a whole lot of ad money.
06:36Where's Darwinism when you need it?
06:38Sir, you were spotted driving at a high rate of speed.
06:41Uh, hell yeah, I was.
06:42What's the point of doing it if I'm not gonna get spotted?
06:45Is it called a reservoir?
06:46Uh, that car is a submarine now, my man.
06:50We love you, Tulsa!
06:53Okay, anyone else in the vehicle?
06:54Uh, nah, man.
06:56Just me and my girl.
06:59Oh my god, Amy's in there.
07:00When we hit the water, she was laughing.
07:01I swear to god.
07:04Turn around.
07:05Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, what are you doing?
07:07You're under arrest.
07:08The water was up to her neck when I pulled up.
07:10Oh my god, why do men have such a hero complex?
07:13I would have been fine.
07:15My girl just owned her ass.
07:16Love you, baby!
07:17Love you, baby!
07:18Yo, Rupikov just arrested Tulsa!
07:20They're taking him to Midwilshire Station?
07:22We got your back, bro!
07:23Oh my god, the drama.
07:25I'm fine.
07:26Relatively speaking, sure, but you could have water in your lungs and LA water is not exactly
07:30known for its purity.
07:31Bacteria can't get into your lungs.
07:33It's not good for you.
07:35LA water is not exactly known for its purity.
07:37The bacteria that might be in your system is not the same kind you're going to find
07:40in kombucha.
07:40Ugh, this is actually abysmal.
07:43Am I right, guys?
07:44Yeah!
07:44Yeah, you got off lucky today, right?
07:46He could have killed you both.
07:47Thanks, Boomer.
07:49But, uh, I don't think I actually asked for your advice.
07:52I'm not stupid.
07:54I can handle myself.
07:57So I probably swallowed some of that reservoir water, too.
08:00Should I be worried?
08:01She was in there longer than you.
08:02You're probably fine.
08:04Yeah.
08:05Yeah, probably.
08:08All units, incoming 10-3-3, silent, manually activated.
08:11Hold up alarm.
08:124-5-1-4, Broward Street, cross the fifth.
08:17Control, we're code six.
08:19All right.
08:20What do we do?
08:20We get a little closer, assess the situation.
08:23Ninety percent of silent alarms are activated inadvertently.
08:26All right.
08:28Listen to me.
08:29Listen.
08:30We can fix this.
08:32Gun.
08:33Now give me the gun.
08:34I'm not leaving here with nothing.
08:35Stay calm, man.
08:37The police are here, but they're not going to shoot, right?
08:40As long as that barrel stays aimed at the ground.
08:42Better yet, you put that down so there's no accidental escalation.
08:47Listen to me.
08:47I've been where you are.
08:49I know how scared you feel right now.
08:50You don't want to do this.
08:52I need the money for rent.
08:53I hear you.
08:54I did six years for armed robbery back home in Nevada,
08:57but I got my life together and it turned out okay.
08:59You don't want to make a bad situation worse.
09:02He's right.
09:03You're not walking out of here with any cash.
09:04That part is over.
09:06The smartest choice you can make now is to give yourself up.
09:10He didn't hurt anyone.
09:11Agreed.
09:12And if he puts the gun down, I will speak to the ADA on his behalf.
09:33Nice work.
09:34Thanks.
09:35I don't know what came over me.
09:36I just thought if I could get him to focus on me, it'll be okay.
09:39I hate to think what would happen if you weren't here.
09:41Sorry I'm late.
09:42I'm supposed to go pick up my daughter at the preschool.
09:45Yeah, of course.
09:46We need a witness statement, but we can take care of that later.
09:48Do you have a driver's license?
09:49Here you go.
09:50Thanks.
09:51We'll get in touch if we need you.
09:53And thank you again for what you did here.
09:55Of course.
10:03Can you tell me what you did wrong back there?
10:06I have no idea.
10:08As you said, 90% of alarms are activated inadvertently.
10:12Right now the entire district is waiting to hear from you to see whether or not that was real.
10:16So when they didn't hear from you, they assumed the worst.
10:19Right now they're racing from across town to come and help you because you didn't update the call.
10:23Sorry, that won't happen again.
10:24Dispatch, show a code four suspect in custody.
10:30Hey, we're gonna take him to the station.
10:32Yep.
10:33Hey, um, I'm looking forward to dinner.
10:38Okay.
10:48God, what the hell?
10:52I told you arresting me was a mistake.
10:54My army goes hard.
10:58How are we gonna get him through?
11:00Where are you taking him?
11:02He's a vegan.
11:03You know that, right?
11:04You guys are my family.
11:06Quiet down.
11:09Everybody get away from the vehicle.
11:12Just take me.
11:12Just take me instead.
11:14I would do the jail time for him.
11:16He's been using my life.
11:17Silence is violence.
11:18Get back.
11:30Miles.
11:30You're lost.
11:31I ain't got nothing to say to you.
11:32I know what you think of me, man.
11:33Really?
11:34Tell me, because I have no idea what to think of you.
11:37We was boys back at the academy, and I trusted you, and you lied about everything.
11:41About the most personal and tragic things.
11:43It wasn't all lies, man.
11:45You have no idea what I have been through.
11:47Was it hard to have pretend cancer?
11:48I didn't know.
11:50You're not a liar, you're a moron.
11:52Well, at least I'm not a has-been clinging to my glory days.
11:54What?
11:55What happened out there?
11:57Downfall of Western civilization.
11:58Some idiot live streams his life and millions watch.
12:01Got me rooting for a zombie apocalypse.
12:03I had a civilian risk his life to talk down an armed gunman today.
12:07Where's his fandom?
12:12Hey.
12:13What happened here?
12:17Uh, it was my fault, sir.
12:19I managed to open the door.
12:20I didn't mean to.
12:21I didn't mean to.
12:21I didn't mean to.
12:22I didn't mean to.
12:23I didn't mean to.
12:23I didn't mean to.
12:24I didn't mean to.
12:24Open the locker door into my face, sir.
12:29All right, let's go get that looked at.
12:31And you gotta fill out an incident report to document that entry
12:33so you can't change your story later.
12:35With me.
12:38Thought I told you to stay cool.
12:41Strike another officer will earn you an automatic bounce.
12:43You heard him.
12:45He was a locker.
12:46This is what happens when you let liars stay on the job.
12:48They infect the team and pretty soon everyone's a liar.
12:55In and out of jail in record time.
12:59Hey, can y'all go show some love on Amy's latest post?
13:02She just bailed me out of jail with her hospital bracelet still on.
13:07Come on, wifey vibes right there.
13:09You're my ride or die, baby.
13:10What are you two doing here?
13:13Look who it is.
13:14ADA.
13:15Wesley Evers.
13:16He's the one trying to bring down your boy.
13:18Get a good look at his face.
13:20That's the face of a straight up hater.
13:22The unfairness of this so-called justice system is atrocious.
13:27Disgusting.
13:28Now we've got somewhere or rather someone to direct all of our anger at.
13:33This is a bad idea for both of you.
13:35You really want to bring more charges to Tulsa?
13:37Whoa, I'm sorry.
13:39Are you actually threatening us right now?
13:42Did you guys hear that?
13:45The persecution literally just doesn't stop.
13:47Okay, can you call security please?
13:49If it wasn't for my bottled smiles, I'd be like totally crashing.
13:52Like going full postal right now.
13:54Anyway, ILYSM, babes.
13:57Make sure to take care of yourselves during such a trying time.
14:00Let's go.
14:01Get ready to have your life turned upside down, Evers.
14:04None of your little fancy degrees will help you hide from the internet.
14:07This is war!
14:08I got a whole army behind me.
14:10Thanks for coming.
14:11Tulsa Nation!
14:12Everybody back to work.
14:13We got bad news.
14:14I just got a call from the Nevada Department of Corrections.
14:18You ran the name of a witness in your liquor store robbery, Gene Webster?
14:21Oh no, it's more than just a witness.
14:23He talked down the gunman at great personal risk.
14:26C. Jack Flad's his name.
14:27Webster was released from custody in 2019, but it was a clerical error.
14:33He still has five years left on the sentence.
14:35So what happens now?
14:37We bring him in.
14:38He has to go back.
14:39That guy's a hero.
14:41I mean, we have to bring him back to prison because they screwed up?
14:45Officer Ridley and I will pick him up.
14:48What happened to your face?
14:49My cheek met the business end of a lock of door, sir.
14:55Dismissed.
15:05Hi.
15:06Hi.
15:07You must be here to take Gene's statement.
15:08Come on in.
15:12Hey, you didn't have to come all the way out here.
15:15Just headed to the station.
15:18Can we have a moment?
15:21No, no, I'll stay.
15:24What's going on?
15:25Well, there's no easy way to say this.
15:28We run backgrounds on everyone involved in a crime scene.
15:31When we ran your name, the Nevada Department of Corrections flagged it.
15:35According to their records, you should still be in prison.
15:39No, he gave my things back, showed me how to get to the nearest bus stop.
15:44I didn't escape.
15:45No, I know.
15:46It was a clerical error.
15:48Instead of being released, you were supposed to be transferred to another facility in Las Vegas.
15:53So what does that mean?
15:56We're here to take you back.
15:58What?
15:59No, you can't do that.
16:00I have a job, a family.
16:04It's the prison that screwed up.
16:05I know, and it is completely unfair, and you should hire a lawyer and fight it.
16:10But our hands are tied.
16:12We have to take you back now.
16:15I think I'm gonna be sick.
16:20Our daughter's taking a nap right now.
16:22What am I supposed to tell her?
16:24Well, I can give you the number for a great family psychologist.
16:28Well then, all fixed, right?
16:30I can't believe this is happening.
16:34We'll give you a minute to get ready.
16:39Okay.
16:45You know, I know how hard this is.
16:59You know, you thought you earned a second chance, and now it's being ripped away.
17:06But your family knows who you really are.
17:11Nolan!
17:12Nolan, he's running!
17:14Gene, no!
17:267-9-15, pursuit of fugitive suspect Gene Webster.
17:30White, male, 40s, blue jean slatshirt.
18:15Mom, look!
18:16Hi, baby!
18:20Here she is, folks!
18:22Wesley Evers' wife!
18:23Angela, is it?
18:25What the hell are you people doing?
18:26Exposing corruption.
18:27Your husband is trying to railroad Tulsa Braden.
18:29Get that camera out of my face!
18:31Hi, Mom!
18:32And you do not have consent to film my child!
18:34Oh my god, calm down!
18:36Okay, we'll put an emoji over his face or whatever.
18:38911, what's your emergency?
18:39This is Detective Lopez, 2331.
18:42I have an angry crowd at my 1010.
18:43My son is in danger.
18:44Send backup now.
18:45Code 3.
18:46You can end this right now.
18:47All you have to do is admit that Tulsa has been wrongfully prosecuted.
18:51What is wrong with you?
18:52Your hero could have killed people today.
18:54Yeah, but unlike you, he didn't kill people, so...
18:56You better watch your mouth.
18:57Or what?
18:58You and your rich husband will stick the Illuminati on me?
19:01What does your kid think of that?
19:02Huh?
19:05I'm taking you in.
19:06Anyone else want to spend the night in jail?
19:07That's police brutality!
19:09Hey, everybody back up!
19:10Back up, let's go!
19:11Wow, guys.
19:13Correction so real.
19:14Of course you get here after the assault.
19:17I bet your body cams are conveniently turned off too.
19:19You know, there's such a thing as being too online.
19:22That's just a lie propagated by people in power to keep people like us quiet.
19:27Okay, Tulsa's one of us.
19:28You know that Tulsa had enough resources to bail himself out
19:31before he spent even one hour in a jail cell.
19:34Do you have those resources?
19:35Do any of you have enough money for that?
19:38No.
19:39Okay, please, just don't arrest me.
19:41Look, I'm sorry I acted out.
19:43I actually have an impulse control disorder
19:45and a social anxiety that's exacerbated by large crowds.
19:51Like I want to spend my evening at juvenile booking.
19:54You are very lucky.
19:59Try to stay offline.
20:00Thanks.
20:03What the hell was that?
20:08Hey.
20:08Hey, you ready to head home?
20:10Yeah, just about.
20:11Quick question.
20:12Why are you reading the California Police Background Investigation Manual?
20:15I am putting together a helpful checklist for you
20:18of the myriad of infractions you can use to kick Seth out of the program.
20:22You're worried about me?
20:23You're riding around with a sociopath.
20:24Of course I'm worried about you.
20:25Well, I gotta tell you, building a covert file on my problematic rookie is so very hot.
20:31But don't worry, I'm fine with Seth.
20:33Okay, well then why do you look so troubled?
20:36There was a robbery earlier and a civilian managed to talk down the shooter.
20:40But it turns out that civilian has some unfinished time on an old prison sentence.
20:44They want him back for it.
20:45When he found out, he ran.
20:48Oh, that's awful.
20:49I can't help but think if he had just kept his head down and not been a literal hero,
20:53he'd be at home right now with his wife and daughter.
20:56Oh, maybe something would have gone sideways in the store.
20:59Maybe someone would be dead.
21:00Just hope he does the right thing, turns himself in.
21:02Doesn't do anything to make a situation worse.
21:04Yeah.
21:06Hey, where are the salad forks?
21:12I'm a 45-year-old guy who lives alone.
21:14There's one kind of fork.
21:16Okay, almost done.
21:18So what's the game plan?
21:19We're gonna eat, be pleasant, and find an excuse to duck out early.
21:22You want me to fake an allergic reaction?
21:24No.
21:25Okay, well, only if I do this signal.
21:27Got it.
21:28Okay.
21:35Welcome.
21:36Hi.
21:36I'll take your jackets.
21:38Yeah.
21:42Thank you so much for doing this.
21:43Yes, anything for you.
21:46I got you flowers.
21:48We- we got you flowers.
21:52Oh.
21:58What are the chances he took these off a grape?
22:04Okay, here's another one.
22:08Well, I made it back home and I hope you guys have a good night.
22:18How goes the doxing?
22:20Oh, no, no, this isn't doxing.
22:21We are harvesting information from public profiles that these fools uploaded themselves.
22:27You want to do crime and then brag about it for clicks?
22:29I am here to keep track.
22:31I already have enough evidence for a dozen arrest warrants.
22:34Well, Tulsa's not going to care if his fans end up in jail.
22:36What about Amy?
22:37Anything on her?
22:38Her social media reflects a basic L.A. cool girl aesthetic,
22:42but her actual background is much more interesting.
22:44She was an honor student all throughout high school, graduated top of her class,
22:48was captain of the debate team, and won the National Mathlete Summit two years in a row.
22:53Well, her Instagram bio just says,
22:55too glam to give a damn painted nail emoji, so.
22:58You know, I thought that we, as a gender,
23:00were past dumbing ourselves down for tools like Tulsa.
23:04Maybe she doesn't see it that way.
23:07What do you mean?
23:08I mean, I think we should talk to her without her other denser half around,
23:12and if she's as smart as she seems, maybe we could talk some sense into her.
23:17I've been volunteering with this great organization
23:19that's focused on building trust with mentally ill homeless people.
23:22What? That sounds perfect for you.
23:24Yeah, Seth's gonna join me one of these days.
23:30Just a joke. Didn't mean anything by it.
23:32Yeah, don't worry, I, uh, I get it.
23:37Oh, wait, hold on.
23:39What is this?
23:42Um, that's not what it looks like.
23:46This looks like an engagement ring.
23:50Tamara, are you crazy?
23:51We're not getting married.
23:53I mean, not right away.
23:53Then what is the ring for?
23:55It's more of a promise ring.
23:56That's what an engagement ring is.
23:58I had a little bit of extra money.
23:59You had extra money?
24:01What, the 10 grand from the city that you got in back pay
24:03after you were fired for lying on the job?
24:06Is that the money you're talking about?
24:07I knew you already made up your mind.
24:08You weren't gonna give him a chance.
24:10Tamara, he has had so many chances.
24:12You know he's lying to you the same way he lied to me the whole time.
24:15We are leaving.
24:17Thanks for dinner.
24:18And for being such a good friend.
24:21I've sent Tamara a dozen texts.
24:31Still no response.
24:33They're young.
24:34It'll fizzle out.
24:35I just...
24:35I don't get it.
24:37You know, I mean, she survived on the streets.
24:39I really thought she had better instincts than this.
24:42Well, living with you taught her to trust people.
24:45In a way, this is your fault.
24:47No estás ayudando.
24:48Lo siento.
24:49She does have good instincts and they will kick in.
24:51When?
24:52Before she's walking down the aisle?
24:58Oh, hi.
24:59Hey, one more for breakfast?
25:00Oh no, I can't stay.
25:02Hey.
25:02Hey.
25:03What's up?
25:04I thought I'd give you a ride to the sergeant's exam.
25:06I'll run you through some last minute sergeant scenarios.
25:08That's sweet of you.
25:10I'll go get my coat.
25:14What was that?
25:16What? Nothing.
25:18Look, we're friends.
25:19I'm supporting her.
25:20Get your mind out of the gutter.
25:22They are just friends.
25:23Absolutely.
25:24He is supporting her.
25:28So how was the big dinner?
25:29I assume Selena was live tweeting all the details.
25:32She was.
25:33I was just being polite.
25:35Night shift says Gene is still in the wind,
25:37but his wife pulled $5,000 out of their checking account.
25:40Sounds like they're making a run for it.
25:42There's a unit on the house right now.
25:43We'll take over after roll call.
25:46Okay.
25:48You can't hold me here.
25:50I didn't commit a crime.
25:51We're not arresting you, Amy.
25:52Although your stunt at the DA's office is definitely questionable.
25:57We're just here to talk.
25:58Okay, I get it.
26:00You're trying to play the whole sisterhood, women helping women angle.
26:04Yeah, I'm way too smart to fall for that.
26:06Yeah, not too smart to hang out with a loser like Tulsa.
26:10We know your history, Amy.
26:12You had a bright future.
26:13Oh my god.
26:14I am so sick of people talking to me about my bright future.
26:19Do you know when people actually started paying attention to me?
26:23Because it sure wasn't after I led the mathlete team to victory in high school.
26:27No.
26:28It was when I started getting regular spray tans and waxes and posting bikini pictures
26:34and never leaving the house without a full face of makeup and dating Tulsa.
26:39Why couldn't you do both?
26:41You don't have to hide your intelligence to be liked.
26:44Come on.
26:45I think we all know what society does to women who try to do both.
26:49We're prudes or we're sluts.
26:51There's no in between.
26:52And for the record, I think I do actually have a bright future ahead.
26:57Just wait and see.
26:59If you're not following me already, I think you're really going to want to keep up.
27:08I have been trying so hard, but nobody seems to care.
27:12It's been 30 hours.
27:14I know.
27:15No, you don't.
27:17You don't know what it's like to feel tricked,
27:19to realize that the person you thought you knew is really just a character someone created.
27:23Well, it wasn't all a lie.
27:25I love my job.
27:26I love tomorrow.
27:27That is real.
27:29So how do I make people see that?
27:31You can't.
27:33You just have to keep working at it all day, every day.
27:36Maybe people will see it.
27:38Maybe they won't.
27:39Come on.
27:40Cancer's not going to get you out of trouble this time.
27:42There are no shortcuts.
27:44Control, you have eyes on the fugitive suspect's wife
27:47heading south on Liberty Gray MDX.
27:50License plate number two, Adam Bravo Mary 543.
27:55Mobilize additional units to support.
27:56Describe the live-in system of a supervisor response to an in-progress emergency.
28:01Locate, isolate, verify, evacuate, negotiate, or neutralize.
28:05Very good.
28:06You all ready?
28:07Yeah, that's all I've heard.
28:10Okay.
28:13It was nice of you to drive.
28:15Yeah, no problem.
28:17And helping me study.
28:19Just returning the favor.
28:24Right.
28:25So this has nothing to do with the promise of physical intimacy if I make sergeant?
28:30Okay, when you make sergeant.
28:32And no, friends help each other without even thinking about the joys of physical intimacy.
28:39Are you mocking my language choice?
28:41You really think that's the best path forward?
28:43Absolutely.
28:44But we both know when you pass the test, you won't have the rain problem anymore.
28:48That's true.
28:49Not that either of us are reading anything more into that.
28:52Right.
28:58Thanks.
28:59I owe you one.
29:01Gene's wife got three phone calls last night.
29:03Two were from burner phones.
29:05One was from a phone registered to Miguel Reese.
29:08Now, Reese is a low-level smuggler and he works for Jose Segura.
29:12Segura is a known coyote smuggling people across the border from Mexico.
29:16And he did two years in the Nevada penitentiary for it.
29:19He did time with Gene.
29:20Exactly.
29:21So it seemed that Gene is relying on an old friend to get him out of the country.
29:24And he asked his wife to bring Segura the money to pay for it.
29:27Right.
29:30Your need for praise is radiating off you like a fever.
29:34Yeah, well, so no attaboy or anything?
29:36You don't get extra credit for doing your job, Officer Ridley.
29:39How about if I have the address the phone call came from?
29:43Now, that's worth praising.
29:45Get back up moving.
29:46Bring the world.
29:46Patrol seven out of 15.
30:06All right, Officer Ridley, what do we do?
30:29Well, the safest thing would be to wait until backup arrives,
30:33CTA two minutes, but without eyes on the back of that warehouse,
30:36they could easily slip away while we wait.
30:38So I say we do a preliminary recon, at least get eyes on the suspects
30:44so we can better advise on tactical operations when the cavalry arrives.
30:48Good.
30:49All right, let's do it.
30:51Stay behind cover as much as possible.
31:02She only brought five.
31:09It was all that I could get on such short notice.
31:13But I can get you more after you get him out of the country.
31:16What's this?
31:19You want me to smuggle your husband on a layaway plane?
31:21Come on, Jose, go back.
31:23You know I'm good for it.
31:24True, true.
31:25We go back.
31:26Yeah.
31:26Back on the yard.
31:27Yeah, we looked out.
31:28We used to look out for each other.
31:29Yeah.
31:30But when you cut out of there,
31:33did I ever get, I don't know, any money on my commissary account?
31:38Or was it just out of sight, out of mind, dawg?
31:41Is that why you're jamming me up?
31:42Because I didn't buy you deodorant and Pop Tarts?
31:44Nah, fool.
31:46I'm jamming you up because you and your wife pulled down six figures last year.
31:51What I do ain't cheap.
31:52We're not rich, man.
31:53I got a mortgage and a kid in Los Angeles.
31:56We're barely scraping by.
31:57Barely scraping by with a mortgage.
31:59Okay.
32:00Homeowners.
32:03Hey, why don't I get Miguel to go bring the kid down here?
32:06We'll see if maybe that opens up your pockets more, dawg.
32:14What's the situation?
32:15We have four men holding our suspect and his wife.
32:17One of them has a shotgun.
32:18I'm assuming the others are armed as well.
32:20All right, SWAT will be here in six minutes.
32:21Yeah, I'm afraid we don't have six minutes.
32:23All right, we'll go around back, get set up.
32:25Guess we have to act.
32:25We're in position.
32:27On me.
32:28Control, this is escalating quickly.
32:29Make an entry now.
32:30Dispatch copies.
32:31Officers making contact.
32:32SWAT and air support are 49.
32:34Code three.
32:35This is less than optimal, Gene.
32:39Less than optimal.
32:42This ain't working, okay?
32:45Maybe if she would have brought more cash, you know,
32:47we could have figured it out.
32:49But I don't know if I can trust her, you know?
32:51I mean, you're a fugitive, right?
32:52And she could just go snitch.
32:54An easily idea.
32:55So I'm just gonna have to keep this five
32:58and dump your bodies in the bay.
33:00No.
33:00Don't do that, Meg.
33:01Hey, come on.
33:03We gotta do something.
33:04Hold steady.
33:05You don't have a clear shot.
33:07Gene.
33:08Don't do that, please.
33:09Come on, Meg.
33:10No.
33:11Gene.
33:17Police!
33:17Drop the...
33:28Shit.
33:39Thanks.
33:39Stay behind me.
33:50Go around.
33:58Go around?
34:02Go around.
34:06Shit.
34:08Oh god.
34:10Oh god.
34:12Oh god.
34:14Oh god.
34:16Oh god.
34:20Oh god.
34:22Oh god.
34:24Get off!
34:26No!
34:26No!
34:27No!
34:28No!
34:29No!
34:30Drop the gun!
34:32No!
34:32Oh!
34:33Oh!
34:35No!
34:35Look out!
34:36No!
34:37No!
34:39No!
34:40No!
34:41No!
34:42No!
34:43No!
34:43No!
34:44No!
34:45No!
34:46No!
34:47No!
34:48Easy.
34:49Hang up.
34:50No!
34:50No!
34:51No!
34:52Hold still.
34:53I need a tourniquet!
34:54Take my belt.
34:55Officer down in a med-vac chopper at my location now.
34:58Severe left leg trauma.
34:59Conscious and breathing.
35:00Help is on the way.
35:01This is gonna hurt.
35:14Hi.
35:15Hi.
35:16How'd the test go?
35:18I mean, I think I did well.
35:21I'm sorry about running out like that.
35:23I never want to lose our friendship.
35:25Tamara, that's not possible.
35:29Hello?
35:31Something happened.
35:32Seth's in the hospital.
35:40I feel like such an ass.
35:42I could've taken the high road with Seth.
35:45But instead I let my anger and my resentment get the better of me.
35:47He earned that anger and resentment.
35:50I know.
35:55Look.
35:56He's a bad person who did a heroic and selfless thing which makes this complicated.
36:02You're allowed to feel bad on multiple levels here.
36:07So he's awake and recovering in ICU.
36:09Unfortunately there was too much damage to the tissue, bone and arteries of his left leg.
36:14We had to amputate below the knee.
36:16I'm sorry.
36:18We did everything we could.
36:19Of course.
36:20Thank you, doctor.
36:27It'll be a long recovery, but he's eligible for disability.
36:31He saved my life.
36:33I'm gonna go check on him.
36:35I'll update the others.
36:47Seth?
36:48Sir.
36:50I, uh...
36:53It doesn't seem real, but it's true.
36:56It's gonna take some time.
36:58You've been through a lot.
36:59I don't remember much at the end, but Jane and Cynthia...
37:02Safe.
37:03Nevada has agreed to release Jane.
37:06Time served.
37:07The DA's going to waive charges here.
37:09He's going home to his family.
37:11It's not a bad way to end my career.
37:13It's gonna take you time to learn to use your prosthetic,
37:16but your career's only over if you want it to be.
37:18I'm pretty sure we all know what the station wants.
37:20Karma's a bitch, right?
37:22Look what you did today.
37:23Sacrificing yourself for another officer.
37:27It bought you a lot of goodwill.
37:29Now you can use that to excuse more bad behavior,
37:32or you can use it to become a different person.
37:35I'm sure the last thing you want right now is advice,
37:38but this tragedy has brought you to a crossroad.
37:43You can choose a different path.
37:45It's just going to require complete honesty.
37:49I don't know if I can, Nolan.
37:51I've tried, and I keep promising myself
37:54that this is gonna be the last time that I'm gonna lie,
37:57and it never is.
38:04I'll give you a minute.
38:11Are you okay?
38:13Of course not. I don't know why I asked that.
38:17I'm okay.
38:20I just...
38:23What? Do I need to get the doctor?
38:24No. No, I need to tell you something.
38:30I knew that I didn't have cancer.
38:35What?
38:36I lied to you.
38:38I lied to everyone because...
38:42Look, I don't know why.
38:43No, no, that's another lie.
38:45I do know I lied because I'm a coward.
38:50I don't understand.
38:52The doctor said...
38:53I lied.
38:54I paid the doctor to say that my cancer was back.
38:58I was failing at my job,
38:59and instead of just owning up to my own mistakes
39:02or doing better, I...
39:05I did what I always do.
39:09I made myself a victim.
39:12I'm sorry, Tamara. I am so sorry.
39:15Lucy warned me.
39:16Yeah, she's right, but...
39:18Tamara, I need you to know that you and me,
39:21that was real.
39:23No, it wasn't.
39:26I didn't even know you.
39:42Oh, fam.
39:43Hey, can I ask y'all to move just a little bit, please?
39:45Thank you. Much love.
39:47Much love, Tulsa Nation.
39:51Deadass, deadass.
39:52There was a loser over there with my name tattooed on his arm.
39:56So cringe, I can't.
39:58And don't even get me started on that ugga over there.
40:00I mean, how is she okay leaving the house looking like that?
40:04You would never let yourself look like that, right, Ames?
40:06I mean, you know what a real woman's supposed to look like.
40:09I can't believe Amy leaked this.
40:11She must have planned it all along.
40:16I am finally ready to stand in my truth.
40:21Tulsa is a gaslighting narcissist,
40:24and we will not let him win.
40:26Think it'll have any effect?
40:27Already has.
40:28Fans are so mad Tulsa packed his bag,
40:30checked himself into a rehab facility.
40:32Yikes.
40:33And I know a lot of you are probably wondering,
40:36what's next for me?
40:39Am I going to be okay?
40:42Well, the answer is unequivocally yes.
40:46Because tomorrow I will be launching
40:48my very first skin care line.
40:51Survivor Skin.
40:53Skin care for survivors.
40:55Okay.
40:56I'm done with the internet for today.
40:59You know, I did see some fans posting videos
41:01calling us the new real-life power couple.
41:03Yeah.
41:04You know, they said that your hair is goddess-coded.
41:06Wow.
41:07Yeah.
41:08Well, maybe we'll just check out
41:10one of those videos real quick.
41:11Okay.
41:12Palette cleanser.
41:13Okay.
41:15How's Tamara?
41:17When I left her, she was Googling
41:19how to join a nunnery.
41:21That's probably a good idea.
41:23It'll pass.
41:24How you doing?
41:26I don't know.
41:28With everything that happened today,
41:30I have no idea how I did on the test.
41:32I either aced it or missed every question.
41:35Well, for now, there's no way to know,
41:37so let's assume you aced it.
41:40And what should we do based off of that assumption?
41:45Celebrate.
41:46You know I didn't take this test for you, right?
41:50Of course.
41:51It was a smart career move.
41:52It is a smart career move.
41:54And I haven't passed yet,
41:56so nothing's really changed.
