00:00Finally finished.
00:10Good as new.
00:11Hope it'll stay that way this time.
00:13It smells like smoke.
00:15Oh, Lucy.
00:16She's smoke cleansing your house.
00:17Okay, all done.
00:19Armstrong's energy is no longer welcome in this home.
00:21But if you feel it coming back, just call me.
00:23There's a more intensive treatment I can do.
00:26Ah, that sounds awesome.
00:27But no, actually, this is...
00:28You know what?
00:29We should really cleanse the station.
00:30Oh, trust me.
00:31That process is already underway.
00:33It's reassigned about a third of our officers to other divisions,
00:36bringing in a bunch of new blood.
00:37Word is my new T.O. is from Valley Bureau.
00:40Man, it sucks that Lopez couldn't finish your training.
00:42Yeah, but I'm psyched for her.
00:43I mean, being a detective is all she ever wanted.
00:45On the bright side, even if your new T.O. is a nightmare,
00:48you've only got 25 days till you graduate.
00:49You should be moving up with us.
00:51It is not fair that Gray's holding you back.
00:53That letter of reprimand was severe enough.
00:55I screwed up.
00:57Actions have consequences.
00:58But when you graduate, you have to celebrate.
01:01No more Tim tests?
01:02Come on.
01:03He's been quiet lately.
01:04Too quiet.
01:05He's planning something.
01:07Definitely.
01:07Where's the pain?
01:09In the car.
01:15Where's your car?
01:15Where's my car?
01:18Someone stole my car.
01:19Who hikes halfway up to the Hollywood sign to steal someone's car?
01:23I'm surprised I got it to start.
01:24Do not speak ill of my baby.
01:26Did you lock it?
01:27Wow.
01:27We don't blame the victim.
01:28That's...
01:29So you locked it?
01:30It doesn't actually lock.
01:31I understand there's a lot of pressure to look good on your first day as a detective,
01:47but we've already had five housekeepers quit, and I really like this one.
01:51This is your fault.
01:52You got me pregnant.
01:53I went up a cup size.
01:54Now none of my tops fit.
01:55Right.
01:57I, uh, had noticed a change.
02:01You did?
02:02Will everyone else?
02:03Well, I certainly hope that your coworkers aren't as focused on your breasts as I am.
02:07My coworkers are 60% men.
02:09Well, they will find out eventually.
02:11Yeah, but I have to make my mark as detective before they do.
02:15Once they know I'm pregnant, they're going to treat me different.
02:17Like I'm delicate.
02:18So I have until I start showing to prove myself.
02:22You will.
02:23You got this.
02:25I'm just going to have to buy a new wardrobe on my way to work.
02:34Why is there a pizza box in here?
02:38Why is roll call in the parking lot?
02:40It's all in the departmental email.
02:42You actually read those?
02:43Chen does.
02:43Turns out that room needs some serious earthquake retrofitting.
02:46And we've just been sitting in it day after day?
02:48It's not.
02:49In the wake of recent events, several changes have been instituted department-wide.
02:53Officer Bradford, you want to read the top-line change?
02:56Yes, sir.
02:57Any officer requesting a copy of a police report must get written approval by a sergeant.
03:01After use, all copies must be destroyed.
03:04Failure to do so will result in discipline.
03:05Officer West.
03:06Every recruit in the academy must now report all contact with active-duty officers, no matter how small.
03:12And Officer Nolan.
03:12No officer shall buy, own, or possess a phone, even for personal use, without also providing the department with a number.
03:19Do I have to tell my girlfriend about it, too?
03:23These changes are necessary.
03:25What Nick Armstrong did has tarnished the badge.
03:28It made all of our jobs harder.
03:30We have to prove to the community that we are still worthy of their trust.
03:33And I know each and every one of you will go the extra mile to do that.
03:37To business.
03:38Among our new faces is Officer Doug Stanton.
03:41Where you at?
03:42Yes, sir.
03:43So Officer Stanton will be taking over the training of Officer West.
03:46And finally, we've been asked to man the 4th Street Community Center this week.
03:50Oprah, Nolan, you're up.
03:51And the punishment continues.
03:53Be safe out there.
03:54Sir, real quick.
03:55Um, my car was stolen yesterday.
03:57It's in the SVS, but I took the liberty of making some flyers.
04:01So, if you happen to see it on patrol, I would really be grateful if you could just text me.
04:05Is this the car you left unlocked?
04:07Technically, I mean, it's a door mechanism.
04:09Dismissed.
04:10Oh, wow.
04:12Janet, let's go.
04:13Yep, coming.
04:14Thank you, Theo.
04:15Oh, good.
04:16Thanks, Smitty.
04:27Lopez, right?
04:29Yes, sir.
04:29Angela Lopez reporting for duty.
04:31Not like that, you're not.
04:33What?
04:33Duty manual prohibits detectives from displaying equipment.
04:36Equipment in public unless I'm used.
04:37I know, my gun is under my jacket.
04:40But I can still see your cuffs and your pepper spray.
04:42I can't let you go out like that.
04:44And are you wearing a vest?
04:46Detectives don't wear vests.
04:48Change and get back here quick.
04:49Newbies make the coffee run every day.
04:51Uh, yes, sir.
04:54Lopez?
04:55You missed the tag.
04:56Hey, let me give you a hand.
05:02Thanks.
05:03Technically, I'm your TO, but I read your file.
05:06If it were up to me, you'd already be riding a solo.
05:09So let's just drop the whole TO boot BS.
05:13Just be partners.
05:14Yeah.
05:14I'd love that.
05:16You think this is a test?
05:17No.
05:19A lot of TOs out there play my names, trying to make up silly tests, but, uh, I'm not one of them.
05:24Let's go.
05:30Craig's right.
05:31We need to rededicate ourselves to doing this job the right way, which means the last 25 days of your training are going to be even more intense.
05:37We should check the chop shops, see if anyone brought my car in.
05:40That's what you're focused on?
05:41Even as parts, your car is worthless.
05:45Not to me.
05:45Let the hunk of junk go and focus on the end of your training.
05:49Is that what you would do?
05:50Let someone get away with stealing the thing that means the most to you?
05:53The only constant in your life for the last 10 years?
05:56It's a car.
05:57It's the only place...
05:59Never mind.
06:03The only place what?
06:05Where I felt safe.
06:08After Caleb.
06:13There's a chop shop on Melrose.
06:14We'll start there.
06:20How would I picture it?
06:22They're all like this.
06:23Bottom of the funding food chain.
06:25Well, there goes the neighborhood.
06:27Policia.
06:28I'm Officer Nolan.
06:29This is Detective Parker.
06:30Don't bother.
06:30You won't be here long enough for me to remember.
06:32Okay.
06:34Well, if you change your mind, drop on by.
06:37We'd love to hear any concerns you have about what's going on in the community.
06:39You're my concern about what's going on in this community.
06:42They only stay at this place when the department's doing damage control.
06:45Well, that way the higher-ups can congratulate themselves on how much they care without actually
06:51doing anything.
06:52Well, if that's your take, what are you doing here?
06:54We're being punished.
06:55I like her.
06:57Okay.
06:57Well, you know where we'll be.
07:01So far, so good.
07:03That was not the warmest of welcomes.
07:05You expect it otherwise?
07:07Look, I know you think all this is just Gray twisting the knife, but I honestly believe
07:12he wants us to use our newfound perspective to engage with the neighbors.
07:15Sure, you go with that.
07:17Well, is that your lunch?
07:18Uh, no.
07:19It's enough jolla fries to feed about 30 kids, as well as some egg goosey and some moin-moin.
07:26Nigerian food.
07:27It's, uh, Heritage Day at Lila's school, and I am supposed to bring a traditional dish.
07:33A dish?
07:33I may have gone a little overboard, but I just, I want Lila to see that I'm here for her now.
07:39When did you sleep?
07:40I didn't.
07:41Listen, you do not know these moms.
07:44They go all out.
07:45I swear, I, not one of them has a job.
07:48Judging other moms, now you're getting the hang of parenting.
07:50I got a lot of time to make up for.
07:52I just, I want Lila to see that I am invested.
07:56Try this.
08:02Wow.
08:03Too spicy?
08:04For sugar?
08:04Mm-hmm.
08:06Good, it's good.
08:08Oh, good.
08:10Whew.
08:11You scared me.
08:14Nice speech by the watch commander.
08:15No, it wasn't just a speech.
08:17Great means it.
08:18Sure, I get it.
08:19Few bad apples, taint us all.
08:20These personnel shifts and rule changes make it harder for good cops to do the job.
08:24Well, I'm not afraid of a little hard work, sir.
08:27Whatever it takes to do things right.
08:28Spoken like a true rookie.
08:31So, tell me about you.
08:33Married.
08:34Kids.
08:35Married?
08:36Yep.
08:36Thirteen years.
08:37Two kids.
08:37Nice, nice.
08:39What does a wife do?
08:39Giselle's a teacher.
08:41Hopefully, she turns my kids into doctors.
08:43So, no more cops in the family?
08:45Nah.
08:47Jobs changed.
08:48People used to respect us.
08:50Looked to us for help.
08:52Nah.
08:53These days, I wouldn't wish being a cop on anybody.
08:57Not the words of encouragement you were hoping for.
08:59And I am always happy to hear another point of view.
09:03Oh, you, uh, mind if I get this?
09:06Partner.
09:07Not TL, remember?
09:10Yo.
09:10How's, uh, community policing?
09:12Room for improvement.
09:13Hey, do you have any interest in tutoring for a couple hours this week after shift?
09:17I just wanted to offer some perks here at the CPC.
09:21You know, draw in some of the neighbors.
09:22Lucy said she's on board.
09:23What's the pay?
09:23A sense of accomplishment?
09:25Sign me up.
09:26You're the best.
09:27Now, should a copier be making this noise?
09:32No calls pending?
09:33Might as well see if we can help.
09:36What's the problem?
09:38Hell if I know.
09:39It's like a spaceship in here.
09:41It's all computers these days.
09:42Let me take a look.
09:46Took you long enough?
09:47Almost had to give away your first case.
09:49There was a line, but I'm good to go.
09:52It's a burglary report from a funeral parlor overnight.
09:56Could be addicts looking for embalming fluid.
09:58Or weirdo sex stuff.
10:00Either way, check it out.
10:01Call me when you get back.
10:03Newbies pick up lunch too.
10:05LAPD Community Center.
10:07Right across the street over there, we have ticket sign-offs,
10:09Primestad updates, after-school tutoring.
10:12Do you want to come in and talk?
10:13Say hi.
10:13Just come on in.
10:13Drop in.
10:14Say hi.
10:23Hey!
10:24Really?
10:267-15.
10:27What pursuit northbound on El Torado at 8?
10:30Meal.
10:30Severity.
10:31Patrol 7-Adam-7.
10:32Attack to the Zach.
10:33Call me three.
10:33Next to the garage.
10:34Easy.
10:367-Adam-15-A also responding.
10:38Yellow jacket, green pants.
10:40Want this whole fight?
10:40Look out!
10:43Suspect came with us now, Vic.
10:44Come on, come on, come on.
11:07No!
11:07Good!
11:12Oh, no.
11:15Something dying there?
11:17You checking balming fluid levels?
11:19Last night.
11:19But they haven't been touched, and nothing else seems to be missing.
11:23Why would someone break in and not take anything?
11:25Could be a weird sex thing.
11:27You okay?
11:35Uh, yeah.
11:36It's just...
11:38Did you cremate someone this morning?
11:42No.
11:42Not for a few days.
11:43So, who's that?
12:03Got him.
12:04Hey, come on.
12:05Take it easy.
12:06It's okay.
12:06We're just resting in for burn doing for...
12:08Stealing this backpack.
12:09What, you need four cops for a kid stealing a bag?
12:11Yo, my man.
12:11It's...
12:12It's okay.
12:12It's okay.
12:13Look, calling for backup is simply protocol.
12:15We don't know if the suspect is armed.
12:17Better safe than sorry.
12:17Safe for who?
12:19Not for people who look like him or me.
12:21You want us to stick around?
12:22No.
12:22We're cool.
12:23I'm not cool.
12:26Are you?
12:26Look, this guy just made one of your neighbors a victim.
12:30Okay, he's going in, so...
12:32It's never that simple.
12:33All right, if the city wasn't spending 50% of his budget on cops,
12:37then maybe he would have gotten a leg up instead of the short end of the stick.
12:39Look, I hear you.
12:40Trust me, I do.
12:41But I don't have a time machine, okay?
12:43So right here, right now, this guy just broke someone's window,
12:46which is not cheap to fix, and he took their property.
12:49So if you want to help him, help him get a good lawyer.
12:51I will.
12:57Are you supposed to ignore crime in his eyes?
12:59It's not that easy.
13:01He's fighting against a rigged system, and he is not winning.
13:05Where's your down?
13:09Uh, you mind taking a walk back through the center?
13:11I, uh, can still make the Lila school on time.
13:13No, yeah, of course.
13:14What are you going to do about the food?
13:15Improvise.
13:15Good luck.
13:22Dispatch, can you connect me to city services?
13:25City services, this is Mike.
13:26Hey, Mike.
13:27Uh, this is Officer John Nolan.
13:29I'm standing at a park gate on the 500 block of West Elm with a bike lock on the gate.
13:34Is that you guys?
13:35A bike lock?
13:36No way.
13:37So you wouldn't have an issue if I took it down?
13:38No, sir.
13:39Excuse me.
13:40Hi.
13:41Me again.
13:42I don't suppose you have a pair of cable cutters I could borrow.
13:45Sure.
13:45You're trustworthy enough, I guess.
13:47I don't know if James would agree with you, but yes, I am.
13:50You've been working with this crew long?
13:51No, James just throws me jobs when he can.
13:54Most days I just line up at the local Home Depot, take whatever work drives up.
13:58Used to own my own construction company, but that went belly up when the economy tanked.
14:02I was in construction in Pennsylvania before I became a cop.
14:05Yeah, I had more than a few very lean years.
14:08Well, lean's being kind.
14:09I almost lost my house.
14:11Something to be said for day work, though.
14:12It doesn't pay great, but it also doesn't keep me up at night worrying about how I'm going to make payroll.
14:17You know what?
14:18Write your name and number on the back of one of those for me.
14:20I have cops coming to me asking me to do jobs for them all the time.
14:23I would be happy to throw them your way.
14:25That'd be great.
14:26Thanks.
14:26No problem.
14:27I'll be right back with these.
14:28Write down that number.
14:28Yeah.
14:38Park's open.
14:41What the hell is wrong with you?
14:43It was a simple burglary call.
14:45You could have closed up the case as a non-worker.
14:47Instead of hearing that you have the coroner and a full CSU team on site.
14:50Yes, sir.
14:51It's a possible homicide.
14:52No.
14:53It's an albatross around your neck.
14:54Those ovens burn at 1,800 degrees.
14:56The DNA is most likely cooked.
14:57And unless you have a victim, the lab moves you to the end of the line so they won't even get
15:01to those fragments for months.
15:04No victim, no cause of death means no homicide.
15:07All you have is a health and safety code violation for improperly disposing of a body.
15:13I'm impressed.
15:14We made it over that fence.
15:15Couldn't do that.
15:16Even back when I was your age.
15:18You ever think about a career in SWAT and Metro?
15:20Only all the time.
15:21Buddy of mine's commander over at SWAT.
15:23Can put in a good word.
15:24Yeah.
15:25That would be amazing.
15:26All right.
15:29Get out of my car.
15:30Get out of my car.
15:31Show us code six for an IMU-415.
15:33This is your house.
15:34Get out.
15:35Now.
15:35What seems to be the problem?
15:37The problem is the drug giant in my back seat.
15:39We landed here 20 minutes ago and he refuses to get out.
15:42Sir, get out of the car.
15:43Can you please stand on the sidewalk?
15:44Don't hurt the car.
15:45It's my only source of income.
15:46What is the goal of this call, Officer Chen?
15:49To get the Mountain's ugly cousin out of the car.
15:51Wrong.
15:52It is to get him out of the car without making things worse.
15:55And do you think you can get him out without relying on your weapons?
15:57Really?
15:58A TIM test right now?
15:59Our goal as police officers should be to de-escalate whenever possible.
16:02This from the guy who set me up to fight a suspect on day one.
16:05Does this mean you're not up to the challenge?
16:06No, sir.
16:06I am game for whatever you want to throw at me.
16:09Great.
16:09So here's the deal.
16:10We start with 100 points.
16:11Reach for anything on your belt and you lose points.
16:14Baton is 10.
16:14Taser equals 15.
16:15If you take out your gun, that's 50.
16:17Leave this call with 85 points or less and you lose.
16:20And I write up a blue page on you.
16:21Getting one of those at this stage of your training would be a real problem.
16:23Can I earn points?
16:24Absolutely.
16:25You get him calm.
16:26Five points.
16:27He agrees to get out of the car, 10.
16:29You get him to apologize to the driver, 20 points.
16:31But if you use any of your weapons, game over.
16:34You lose.
16:35Back up.
16:36I got this.
16:38Excuse me.
16:39Hi.
16:40I'm Officer Chen.
16:41What's your name?
16:42I want the pretty girl.
16:43Where'd the pretty girl go?
16:44Well, she's right out here.
16:45Why don't you come out and see her?
16:47They're trying to trick me.
16:48They told me all about that in the Marines.
16:50You're a Marine?
16:51Took toys in country.
16:52Hurrah.
16:53Thank you for your service.
16:57Why don't you get on out and let the pretty girl have her car back?
17:00Don't tell me what to do.
17:01Oh, that's 15, Officer Chen.
17:03You're already in the last call.
17:06Let's go out.
17:07Eat a bag of drink.
17:08Not helping.
17:09I'm not a bad guy.
17:10Sir, look.
17:10Back off.
17:11Okay, okay, look.
17:14I get it.
17:15It's been hard.
17:17Being home, back in your life where nothing feels normal, but she's just trying to do her
17:21job.
17:22And I know your mother didn't teach you to disrespect women.
17:25Don't talk about my mom.
17:27She died when I was over there.
17:30I'm so sorry.
17:31You know she would tell you that you're better than this.
17:36You fought for freedom, and that includes this girl's freedom from you harassing her because
17:41you got drunk and lonely.
17:49You're right.
17:52I'm sorry.
17:54Don't apologize to me.
17:55I'm sorry.
18:01I'm sorry.
18:02Bite me.
18:05Fine.
18:07Thanks.
18:08Do you live here, sir?
18:10Yeah, upstairs.
18:11All right, head on up, straight to bed, and just take it easy next time you're at the
18:14bar.
18:15Yeah, yeah.
18:18Calm, plus leaving, plus an apology.
18:22I crushed this test.
18:24Nice recovery.
18:25Mm-hmm.
18:26Have a great day, ma'am.
18:27Oh, uh, just wait one second.
18:29Have you seen this car while you've been driving around?
18:32Oh, super cute.
18:33Yeah, thanks.
18:34You know what?
18:35I did see it.
18:36Where?
18:42There it is.
18:45Somebody's inside.
18:48Control 7-Av-19, Occupy, 10-8-5-1, Wilshire, Norman, Station.
18:52Stop right there.
18:52Put your hands on top of your head.
18:54Fingers interlaced.
18:59You are under arrest for auto theft.
19:01No.
19:01If you don't understand, I didn't steal the car.
19:03The guy who owns it lent it to me, but he lost the keys.
19:05I'm the guy who owns the car.
19:07You didn't even lock it.
19:08What did you expect?
19:09Yeah, well, it doesn't lock.
19:10It does now.
19:11What?
19:12How did you fix it?
19:13It was easy.
19:14Just popped out the door panels.
19:15Took like two minutes.
19:15Wait, are you living in here?
19:17Wait, are you living in here?
19:18How old are you?
19:19Seventeen.
19:20Where are your parents?
19:23Dead.
19:28All right, anything in here that's going to stick me?
19:30Needles?
19:30Knives?
19:31No.
19:31How long have you been living on the street?
19:33You're careful with that.
19:34Sorry.
19:40It must be hard living like this.
19:42What do you care?
19:43Uh, I'm not going to press charges.
19:49Here, stand up.
19:52Seriously?
19:53Yeah, it's my car, my prerogative.
19:55Who?
19:56We'll get you set up over at a children's shelter, all right?
19:58Uh, you don't have to.
19:59I got some place else I can go.
20:00Does it have doors that lock and people that care about you?
20:03Does a children's shelter?
20:04You know how many times I got my stuff stolen from there?
20:07It's too far from school.
20:08You still go to school?
20:09Yeah, I do.
20:10And I get good grades.
20:11Any more dumb questions?
20:13Look, I don't want to make getting to school hard for you.
20:17But I don't have a choice here.
20:19So it's either jail or the shelter.
20:21But I won't just dump you there, okay?
20:22I'll help you find a permanent place.
20:24Is she for real?
20:24Officer Chen, a word.
20:27You stand here, hands on the car.
20:33Congratulations.
20:34On what?
20:35On your first puppy.
20:36What?
20:36Every rookie adopts a puppy at some point.
20:38Someone they think they can save.
20:40Honestly, I'm surprised it took you this long.
20:42Did you have a puppy?
20:43But that's not relevant here.
20:45What is, is that it never goes well.
20:47Okay, well, she's not a puppy.
20:48She's a girl in trouble.
20:49And I'm going to help her.
20:51Okay?
20:52Seven out of seven.
20:53Show us code six on the burglary call at 1119 Brouwer.
20:57Seven out of seven.
20:58Copy.
20:59Hey, I'm DeAndre and these are my folks.
21:03I don't really speak much English.
21:04Most African?
21:05Uh, Somalia, actually.
21:07I was born in Long Beach.
21:08So, uh, someone broke into your home.
21:10Yeah.
21:11We spent the night in Bakersfield for my basketball tournament.
21:14Just got home a few hours ago and door was busted open.
21:16It's with TVs, computers, and my mom's jewelry.
21:19Sorry to hear that.
21:20I used to play a little ball back in high school.
21:22Used to call me the Dugganaut.
21:23You got a nickname?
21:25Not really.
21:27Uh, D sometimes.
21:29D, huh?
21:29D-ball.
21:30Nice.
21:31I like it.
21:32So, did anyone know you'd be gone?
21:34Did you post on social or anything like that?
21:36Got any tattoos, D-ball?
21:39I mean, one.
21:41A little tiny dot I gave myself when I was 13.
21:45See?
21:46So, who are you claiming these days, D?
21:49What?
21:50I'm not claiming anybody.
21:52I'm not in a game.
21:53So, you're not murder East Nation?
21:54State land crew?
21:55No, dude.
21:56We got broke.
21:57Do anybody money, D-ball?
21:59Sometimes, burglaries will have personal motives.
22:02My partner is just trying to narrow the suspect field.
22:06Sir, could I ask you a favor?
22:07Partner to partner.
22:09What is it?
22:10Officer Lopez never let me do any interviews alone.
22:12And I could use the practice over the next three weeks before I end up riding solo.
22:16You'd be doing me a real solid, sir.
22:20All right.
22:21I'll be back in the shop.
22:22But your report better be bulletproof.
22:25If I find as much as a typo, it's a blue page.
22:27Understood.
22:31Like, I, uh, I gotta apologize about my partner.
22:34He's done a lot of work with gangs and gets kind of stuck in his head.
22:38Can you please show me the point of entry, sir?
22:41Yeah.
22:41Round of applause for the conquering hero.
22:44What happened?
22:45I snagged a deep dish pizza on the way there.
22:48Because Donovan is from Chicago, so you know.
22:51Heritage.
22:51And kids love pizza.
22:52Only thing they ate.
22:53One mom, she brought this jellied fish thing.
22:57One kid cried when he saw it.
22:59Looks like I went at momming.
23:00Not sure that's exactly how you're supposed to see it?
23:02I'm enjoying my triumph.
23:06Anyway, how are things going here?
23:07Great.
23:08Uh, I signed off on a couple of fix-it tickets.
23:10Came up with some ideas for reaching out to the community.
23:12Would you like to hear them?
23:13Sure.
23:14All set.
23:16Thanks for letting me do that.
23:18Mm-hmm.
23:18I'll get to work on that report.
23:23Did one of you clip the bike lock in the park?
23:26I did.
23:27Yeah.
23:27Are the kids using it?
23:28Yeah.
23:28Luckily, my oldest found the dirty needles in the sandbox before little kids played in it.
23:34I had no idea.
23:35Did you at any point stop to wonder why the lock was even there?
23:39Those lights have been busted for a year.
23:41Do you know what happens in a dark public park?
23:43Yes.
23:44Drug dealers.
23:44Yeah.
23:44And junkies and who the hell knows what else.
23:46We locked the park to keep them out.
23:49We could have helped.
23:50You should have called 911.
23:51To do what?
23:52Clear them out for the night?
23:53Maybe kill someone in the process?
23:55We're not all trigger happy.
23:57I mean, most of us want to help.
23:58I don't know about most.
24:01But I can't roll the dice that a good cop is going to show up.
24:04So we found our own solution.
24:05The lock was there to protect us.
24:07To protect our kids.
24:09You shouldn't have to trade a place to play for safety.
24:12No.
24:13We shouldn't.
24:15But we do.
24:16The city gave you permission to work on this yourself?
24:39Uh, yeah.
24:40Took some convincing.
24:41And I got to do it on my own time.
24:42All the city has to do now is come and inspect.
24:45Until then, lights are working.
24:48Hey, that's just great.
24:50You must feel real good about yourself.
24:52Actually, my shoulders and my back are a little angry with me.
24:55And what about tonight?
24:57When they break the lights again, what then?
24:59Uh, cameras are on their way,
25:00and the watch commander has approved more patrols in the area,
25:02so if anybody's caught messing with the lights,
25:03they'll be arrested.
25:04Some more black and brown people in prison.
25:08And then you'll be gone,
25:09and it'll just go back to the way it was.
25:11I'm just trying to help.
25:15You ever wonder why
25:16cops spend so much time in neighborhoods like this?
25:20It's because the arrests are easy.
25:22Hell, I've lost count of the amount of times
25:23I've seen rookies brought here and taught,
25:25this is what a junkie looks like,
25:27and this is what a dealer looks like.
25:29And from that moment on, that's how cops see us.
25:32Okay, look, I wasn't trained like that.
25:34Well, that's because your training officer looks like us.
25:36Like, the only person you helped this morning is you.
25:39Made yourself feel good
25:40while you put a Band-Aid on a systemic wound.
25:44You want to make a real difference?
25:47Stop picking on us
25:48and attack crime at the source.
25:51Keep meth out of this neighborhood.
25:53Anything less,
25:54you're just wasting both our time.
25:59Good morning.
26:04You okay?
26:05Uh, Tamara left the shelter during the night.
26:08The girl who stole my car.
26:10Right.
26:10Sorry.
26:11I, like, wrapped up a mile in a little drama.
26:14I talked to our caseworker.
26:16Tamara's had it rough.
26:17Both of her parents OD'd.
26:19She got taken in by relatives,
26:20but there was violence in the house,
26:22so she split.
26:23What are you going to do?
26:24Try and find her.
26:25Even though Tim's giving me a hard time,
26:26he calls her my puppy,
26:27he says that every rookie gets one.
26:29He's just being judgy.
26:31You know how he is.
26:32All due respect,
26:33screw Tim.
26:34Yeah.
26:35And all the other T.O.'s.
26:36You know, I am so sick
26:38of being at the bottom of the food chain,
26:39like, constantly jumping through
26:41somebody else's hoops.
26:42Well, are you all right?
26:43What is up with all this drama?
26:45Doug, like...
26:46He did something yesterday
26:49that really bothered me.
26:51The way he treated this one family.
26:54Black family.
26:55Did he put hands on them?
26:57No.
26:57No, it's just the way he talked to them.
27:00Like, the disrespect was like...
27:0424 more days.
27:08Yeah.
27:08No.
27:14It's super healthy.
27:15Then you eat it.
27:16I have too much work to do
27:17just for the next half hour puking.
27:19Can I help?
27:21I'm dead in the water.
27:23Our unknown suspect forced entry
27:25into a funeral crematorium
27:26and disposed of a body.
27:28No prints, no DNA,
27:29no gender, age, or race.
27:31All we got is a sneaker print
27:33from the most popular brand on earth.
27:35There has to be something.
27:36The suspect approaches,
27:41forces entry,
27:42alarm goes off.
27:43According to the alarm company,
27:45he enters a code.
27:46Enters it again,
27:47alarm is still going off,
27:48so he cuts the wires.
27:53He didn't try two different codes.
27:55He tried the same code twice.
27:59Gotta go.
28:06Now she's got me doing it.
28:11We gotta get something straight.
28:14Okay.
28:15I was super pissed when I went home last night,
28:17the way you pushed me yesterday.
28:19Then I realized,
28:21you just don't know any better.
28:22So it's my job
28:23to teach you the right way
28:25to think on the street.
28:25Officer Lopez did that already.
28:27Yeah, sure.
28:28But I got a very different perspective
28:30than your former T.O.
28:32I've seen a ton of gang activity in my time.
28:34And that experience has taught me
28:36that crooks and dirtbags
28:37always try to hide who they are.
28:39No, DeAndre didn't seem like a crook
28:41or a dirtbag.
28:42They never do.
28:43Do you know the significance
28:44of that dot tattoo, Officer West?
28:47You see, he has three more on his chest.
28:50So when he puts his hand over his heart
28:51and holds up two fingers,
28:55it makes the area code 213,
28:57birthplace of Crips.
28:58That kid, D-ball,
28:59is a straight-up gangster.
29:01Maybe I'm wrong.
29:02If so, that's on me.
29:03But I've seen far too many good cops
29:05get caught flat-footed,
29:07making the wrong assumption.
29:08We must remain ever vigilant on this job.
29:10Otherwise, we end our shift in a body bag.
29:18Morning.
29:20You are six minutes late.
29:22Sorry, I was putting up lights at the park.
29:24You know they're just gonna smash those out again.
29:26That's what James said.
29:27But the lights are up,
29:28which means crime will be down,
29:30and the patrols and cameras
29:31will keep the lights working.
29:32That's gotta be value-add, right?
29:34Okay, I know you.
29:35I know your heart is in the right place,
29:37but you can't come at this
29:39like you are some kind of...
29:41savior.
29:45You mean white savior.
29:47Look, that's the last thing I'm trying to beat,
29:49but what am I supposed to do?
29:50How can I be an ally to the people that live here?
29:53Stop pretending like you know what they need
29:55and just ask.
29:58Mr. Moore, thanks for coming by.
30:01Y'all painting in here?
30:02Something like that.
30:04Have a seat.
30:06Would you like some coffee or water?
30:08I could use a beer.
30:09You used to work at St. Dubois Funeral Home.
30:12Is that correct?
30:13Barely.
30:14I mean, it's been so long.
30:16Your pay stubs show that you worked there
30:17up until two months ago.
30:19Feels longer.
30:20Records also indicate
30:22that you had your own access code
30:24for the security system.
30:26It was your code that was entered
30:27during a recent break-in.
30:28Anybody could have seen that code,
30:30tried to use it.
30:31True.
30:32The wear on shoes is as unique
30:33as a fingerprint.
30:34No two people walk exactly the same way.
30:36This, you may remember,
30:37is your shoe.
30:39And this
30:40is from the crime scene.
30:42Okay, yeah, I broke in.
30:50But I didn't kill anyone, I swear.
30:52I just burned the body like all the others.
30:54Others?
30:56Like in more than one dead body?
30:59Yeah.
31:01Okay, I'm going to stop you
31:03and redo your rights.
31:04You have the right to remain silent.
31:06Anything you say can
31:07and will be used against you
31:08in a court of law.
31:09You have the right to an attorney.
31:10If you cannot afford an attorney,
31:11one will be provided for you.
31:13Do you understand the rights
31:14I've just told to you?
31:16Yeah.
31:16I'm not stupid.
31:18Of course not.
31:19And with these rights in mind,
31:21do you wish to speak to me?
31:23Okay.
31:25Mind if I invite in a friend?
31:26Is she cute?
31:28How many bodies did you dispose of
31:29while you worked there?
31:30Not many.
31:31Seven, 12.
31:33I don't know, it was like
31:34once every couple months.
31:36But then I got fired
31:37and I was really scared
31:38to tell the guys,
31:39so when they brought me another body,
31:40I just broke in.
31:42And who are the guys?
31:45They'll kill me.
31:46You can be a good witness
31:47or an accessory to murder.
31:49Up to you.
31:50Okay, fine.
31:52K-Town Mafia.
31:53Brian Samoro's crew.
31:55But he's crazy.
31:55I need secret service protection.
31:57You mean witness protection.
31:58That too.
32:00Give me all of it.
32:03Pretty sure that albatross
32:04just flew away.
32:05Nice work, Detective.
32:06I'll finish up here
32:08with Miss Namor.
32:09Go coordinate with Ezra
32:10and the gang unit.
32:11This is gonna be
32:12a front page arrest.
32:16What's an albatross?
32:21Okay, and you've reattached
32:22your front license plate,
32:24which means I can sign off
32:26on this fix-it ticket
32:27as prepared.
32:29There you go.
32:30Thank you so much for coming in.
32:31As you can see,
32:32it's been just a little slow.
32:34Still getting up to speed.
32:35Don't forget to send in
32:36the $10 as the processing fee.
32:39Another satisfied customer.
32:41Go.
32:43Go for John Nolan.
32:45Hey, it's Hugo.
32:47I lent you bulk coders yesterday.
32:48Great.
32:49Yes.
32:49Hey, how are you?
32:51I'm on a job right now.
32:53We're doing a commercial kitchen.
32:54They want vinyl composition tiles
32:56in the food prep area.
32:57Pepper.
32:58So we're going through
32:59lots of denatured alcohol,
33:00paint thinner, drain cleaner.
33:02Building codes forbid
33:03vinyl composition tiles
33:04in food prep areas.
33:05He knows that.
33:06He knows I use that.
33:06I know it's great,
33:07but the coffee is terrible.
33:08All the filters I found
33:10are stained red,
33:11plus no AC
33:12until we get the freon.
33:13And don't even get me started
33:15on the propane
33:15while the brass
33:17in the tanks turn blue.
33:17Red phosphorus
33:18gets run through coffee filters,
33:20freon, denatured alcohol.
33:21These are all ingredients
33:22that produce
33:22anhydrous ammonia gas.
33:25Gas
33:25that turns brass fittings
33:27on propane tanks blue.
33:29Where are you?
33:30Can't say,
33:31but you keep those jobs
33:32open for me.
33:33Of course I will.
33:35Red phosphorus,
33:36ammonia gas,
33:36I don't...
33:37It means that Hugo
33:37has been roped
33:38into building a meth lab.
33:40Probably a super lab.
33:41We've got to go save him.
33:42All right,
33:43I will call Metro.
33:44I'll tell them
33:44to get a SWAT team together.
33:45No, we have to go.
33:47SWAT doesn't know
33:47what Hugo looks like.
33:48What if they lump him
33:48in with the Narcos?
33:49This is it.
34:04This is where Hugo's phone was
34:06when it last sent that signal,
34:07but there's nothing here.
34:09Nolan, look over there.
34:11Gases from a meth lab
34:12kill any vegetation
34:13near the vent ports.
34:14It's somewhere over there.
34:15All right, listen to me.
34:19Some gases from
34:20a ruptured meth cook
34:21can kill you instantly.
34:22So, even with this on,
34:24that'll give you
34:25about 30 seconds.
34:25Pops.
34:29We hear a boom,
34:30we get out of there
34:31immediately.
34:32Do you copy that?
34:33Yes.
34:35Ready?
34:37Hit!
34:37Hit!
34:37Hit!
34:38Hit!
34:38Hit!
34:38Hit!

35:10Oh!
35:11Thank God you found us!
35:13They weren't going to let us go!
35:14Where are the keys?
35:15Up on the wall!
35:16Hurry!
35:17We gotta get out of here!
35:19Come on!
35:20What is that smoke?
35:21Oh my god!
35:22Oh!
35:23Oh!
35:24Oh!
35:25That's it!
35:26That's it!
35:27That's it!
35:28That's it!
35:29That's gas!
35:30Nolan, we have got to get out of here!
35:32Get out of here!
35:33Go, go, go, go!
35:34Okay, go!
35:35We gotta go!
35:36Nolan, come on!
35:37We gotta go!
35:38I'm not leaving him behind!
35:39We gotta get out of here!
35:40We gotta get out of here!
35:41We gotta get out of here!
35:43We gotta get out of here!
35:44Yeah!
35:52Oh!
35:54Oh!
35:59Oh!
36:04Oh!
36:06Oh!
36:08Oh!
36:09Oh!
36:10.
36:15.
36:20.
36:30.
36:34.
36:39Oh, you're okay.
36:44You're good.
36:44Yeah.
36:50Don't watch.
36:52Trust me.
36:53There's nothing we can do for him.
37:04Tamara.
37:06How did you find me?
37:07Well, I checked all the local high schools to see where you were registered,
37:10and they told me that you're usually hanging out at the library until closing time.
37:15You can take me back to the shelter, but we both know I won't stay.
37:18I know, but living on the street isn't any better.
37:21You know, you deserve more.
37:22There isn't more.
37:24There's just this.
37:26You don't believe that.
37:28Otherwise, you would have given up, dropped out.
37:31I think you believe that there's something better out there.
37:33You just need someone to help you find it.
37:35Okay, so, look, um, I'm gonna give you my car.
37:41What?
37:41Just until you get back on your feet.
37:43You know, I know it doesn't run great, but it took me to college.
37:46It saw me through three really bad relationships, and it kept me sane after, well, after I almost died.
37:53What's the catch?
37:54You gotta let social services help you find a place to live.
37:58One that I'll make sure is safe, and you have to keep checking in with me regularly until that happens, so I know you're okay.
38:03Like once a week?
38:04Like once a day.
38:06It's a free car.
38:07That barely runs.
38:09Once a day, until you're off the street, or no deal.
38:11Thanks.
38:23How's life without Lopez?
38:26Definitely not the same.
38:28Hey, have you ever seen anyone with one of those 213 dot tattoos?
38:32Not in like a decade.
38:33That's some old school gang stuff.
38:36Stanton tell you about that?
38:38Yeah, right after he told me that I should listen to him because he has a different perspective than Lopez.
38:42Look, Stanton was originally an LA County Sheriff.
38:45Rookies in the Sheriff's Department, they don't start out in the streets.
38:48They do two years as guards, mostly at the Twin Towers.
38:50That sounds like a nightmare.
38:52Nothing like having inmates pelting you with bags of feces on the regular to give you a jaded view of humanity.
38:58Or a certain color of humanity.
39:01Look, Al, I hear he's a solid cop.
39:08Learn what's useful and ignore the rest.
39:12Alright?
39:13If you quote me on that to Chen, I'll deny it.
39:22You all done?
39:24I gotta pick up the kids for my mom.
39:25How old?
39:2770.
39:28You were talking about moms, right?
39:30Mmm.
39:3112 and 14.
39:33Mmm.
39:34You got any?
39:35I do.
39:36Uh, her name is Lila.
39:37She's seven.
39:38I know.
39:39I know.
39:41Go up around here?
39:42Inglewood.
39:43You still live there?
39:44Is this a side door into a conversation about cops living in the communities they serve?
39:51Busted.
39:51But you gotta admit, it wouldn't make a difference, but it would also mean that anyone who was angry at the police could take it out on me, my family, my home, my little girl.
40:04And don't act like you don't act like you don't know nobody who wouldn't do it.
40:08I mean, we're not tight, but I get it.
40:13I get it.
40:14It's complicated.
40:15Yeah.
40:16Both of us.
40:18But I appreciate you willing to talk about it.
40:21Thanks for looking out for Hugo.
40:23He said you straight up saved his life.
40:25Well, that wasn't just me.
40:29I mean, Nolan insisted that we both go personally so that SWAT would not see Hugo as a criminal.
40:35Don't write Nolan off.
40:36He is more of a guardian than any other cop I have ever worked with.
40:40I mean, right now, his shift is over, and yet he's still inside waiting for kids to come by for tutoring.
40:45Anyway, have a good night.
40:47Oh, no, no, no, no, whoa, whoa, whoa, you gave her your car?
41:00Listen, I can't deal with any more judgment.
41:02No, no, I was going to say that's very generous.
41:05Thanks.
41:06Hey, uh, hi.
41:08Come on in.
41:08Oh, thanks.
41:10These are my boys, Aaron and Michael.
41:12Uh, hi, I'm Joan.
41:13Hi, I'm Lucy.
41:14Nice to meet you.
41:14Look, I, uh, I know I've been giving you a tough time.
41:17But I really do appreciate what you were trying to do this morning.
41:22Even though it was misguided?
41:23Yeah.
41:25Plus, they've changed the way they teach math again, so I'm a little lost.
41:30Well, you came to the right place.
41:31Lucy is excellent at math.
41:34Jackson is excellent at math.
41:36Yes, and he will be here soon.
41:37Why don't we, uh, get you guys settled?
41:39Right this way, Jensen.
41:42Look, I don't take handouts, so if you're going to tutor my boys, I am going to pay.
41:47Well, how about this?
41:48Uh, we'll tutor Michael and Aaron, and you sit down and talk to us a little more about
41:52what this neighborhood really needs.
41:55I can do that.
41:59Perfect timing.
42:01Jackson, this is James.
42:02You met him outside the park?
42:03Yes.
42:04Right this way.
42:05These are the guys that need your help.
42:08This is the numbers, guys.
42:09I wish I'd let you around.
42:12How old are you?
42:14How old are you?
42:1413.
42:1513.
42:16I wish I'd let you around.
42:33I'll see you next time.
