00:00Previously on the Rook.
00:02Oh!
00:03It's Lisa.
00:04She's a gut shot.
00:05We gotta get her out of there.
00:06I have confirmed that Seth lied to me on two separate occasions.
00:08He can't stay.
00:09Let's talk to Graham.
00:10I finally got my lab results, and my cancer is back.
00:13But we caught it early, and the doctor says that I should still be able to work.
00:17This is James, palling around with Leonard Kelsey.
00:20He's a anti-police extremist.
00:23I love you, and I am so sorry.
00:30Just saying, a 10 p.m. weekday meetup feels like payback for everything I put her through as a rookie.
00:37Oh, shush.
00:38She's just excited to show us the new guy she's dating.
00:43Oh, I gotta go.
00:44Hey!
00:47Thank you so much for coming.
00:48Of course.
00:49I know, it's late.
00:50Oh, for us at Holdings?
00:51No, that's not what I said.
00:53There's Rog.
00:54Rog, hey!
00:56Okay, so this is John and Bailey.
00:58It is so nice to officially meet you both.
01:00You too.
01:01You look so familiar.
01:02That's a good one.
01:03I can see why Selena adores you.
01:05And don't get me started on how much she looks up to you.
01:07What a renaissance woman.
01:08Hey, run!
01:09I gotta go, I'm up.
01:10I'll see you guys in there.
01:11Okay, see ya.
01:12Isn't he great?
01:13Nice and nice.
01:14He's so cute.
01:19Excuse me.
01:25I'm telling you, I know this guy from somewhere.
01:27Well, actually about that.
01:28Hello!
01:29Thank you guys for coming out to the single release party for my new song 9-1-1.
01:34I want to give a special shout out to the OG daddy cop John Nolan for being such a good sport.
01:40I was going to tell you but then I didn't because I was afraid about how you'd react and now I feel completely justified in my fear and also realizing how much of a terrible mistake I've made in springing this on you in this moment.
01:51I know you're off duty but even in blue jeans that beautiful booty don't quit.
02:00Don't wanna bother you officer Heidi I just have to tell you something.
02:10All the day I saw an angel walking down my street.
02:19I kept it short and she said, sure to go and now it's me.
02:25Don't know
02:55No more, she saved my life
03:06Thanks again for helping us. Are you kidding? I can use the side money getting shot is expensive even when you work at a hospital
03:12You good?
03:14Okay, what do you need?
03:16Nothing right now
03:18Okay, I'll make it back for the night shift make sure he walks every three hours the road back to normal is
03:28Gonna be long, isn't it? It is. I'm not even quite a hundred percent, but you've got each other
03:40All right
03:42Where are the kids told you they are back at my mom's house for a few days while you get settled
03:50Hey, come sit with me. I have so much to do. I have to do it. It's just one minute
04:12I
04:21Don't see the problem. The problem is she's dating a psychopath. That's not okay. Wait. I have heard the song arrest me
04:28But make it sexy. It's it's funny. And so is the new one. Yeah at my expense
04:34I
04:36I don't understand why men take everything so seriously. I don't see how you could generalize something like that
04:42experience
04:44We got an emergency
04:55Get out. Hey
04:59Smitty, I don't see a raccoon. It was here and it was vicious
05:04It must have escaped into the wall. What's going on?
05:06Smitty thinks you saw a raccoon. I don't think I know cuz six of the thirteen donuts I snuck in here to eat
05:12Are gone. You're gonna eat thirteen donuts all by yourself. It's not the point boot
05:17Okay, well if there is a raccoon we can't have it running around loose in the station
05:22I've had a fair amount of experience trapping barbers back in Texas great
05:25You're officially on a raccoon duty expect this thing neutralized by lunch by any means necessary. No
05:30Don't listen to him. You can't kill it or hurt it in any way. It has to be trapped humanely
05:35Say a prayer kid makes a monster
05:39Be nice
05:41Do what you have to do
05:43Hey
05:52The front desk just called said you were coming
05:54Yeah, sorry to just drop by
05:56No, it's a good surprise last night was fun. It was so much fun
06:00Can I kiss you should I kiss you at work?
06:02Uh, it's best you don't
06:04Right
06:04Anyway, uh, the reason I'm here is there's been a bit of a crime and I've had bad experiences calling 9-1-1 before
06:11Well, not a problem. What's happening?
06:13Someone broke into my studio last night and stole all my gear
06:15Uh, this guitar is the only thing they left
06:17That's terrible. Look, there have been a string of burglars in your neighborhood recently
06:21They also spray painted dye on the wall like six times
06:24Okay, now that makes it seem personal
06:26You think?
06:26I do
06:27Oh, it's you
06:29Hey, thank you again so much for coming last night
06:31I'm really glad there's no hard feelings. It's all in fun, right?
06:34Totally
06:35Nolan, I need you
06:37Excuse me
06:38Sure thing. Have a great day
06:40Heat is so nice
06:42Yeah
06:43Jen
06:44Yes, sir. What's going on?
06:45Get over to St. Stephen
06:46Three girls were just found stabbed in Griffin Park
06:49EMTs are rushing into the hospital
06:51How old are they?
06:52Thirteen
06:53Yes, sir. We're on it
06:54I don't think I will ever get over the whiplash of this job
06:58One minute we're having fun with raccoons
06:59And the next we're dealing with the horrors of stabbed children
07:02Raccoons?
07:03Thirteen-year-old female, multiple stab wounds from her abdomen and chest
07:07Vitals?
07:07Her respiratory rate has been 30
07:09She's tachycardic with a heart rate of 150
07:11She's critical, starting unit of O-neg and prepper for OR, STAT
07:13Yes, John
07:14Patient number two
07:15Superficial stab wounds, lacerations from her bilateral upper extremities
07:18Vitals are stable, bleeding is well controlled
07:20Copy, move her to an ER bay
07:22She needs sutures
07:23Got it
07:24Third patient suffered multiple stab wounds to bilateral hands
07:26Looks like bleeding is well controlled, vital signs are stable
07:29Take her to another ER bay, minor stitches
07:32Bailey
07:33Hey
07:34Hey
07:34How are they?
07:35Grace is critical, the other two aren't, thank God
07:38They know the attacker?
07:39Ava just said it was some man in a mask
07:41He attacked Grace out of nowhere, her and Charlotte went up to help
07:44He stabbed them and then ran off
07:45We're gonna need a better description for the bolo
07:47And also the parent's contact information
07:49God, this is the parent's worst nightmare
07:53Okay, do you have any enemies?
07:55That sounds so hardcore
07:57Enemies
07:58I'm not a feudal prince or an overly noble constable
08:01Right, but it seems appropriate given someone wrote die on your wall six times
08:06Might have been ten, I stopped counting
08:07Either way, I mean it potentially escalates to a hate crime
08:10So we need to take it seriously
08:12Okay
08:12I can't think of anyone who hates me
08:17Well, uh
08:19In theory, and we're just talking here
08:21Officer Nolan could have considered you an enemy
08:24After you mocked them in song twice
08:26What?
08:27I wasn't mocking him
08:28Cop cuties, cutin' on duty, navy blue booties
08:31Go ahead and lock me up
08:32What's mocking about that?
08:33I mean, I get that
08:34But again, in theory
08:36If he was less open-minded
08:38He might not have liked it
08:39So does anyone like that come to mind?
08:42Well, yeah
08:47Hey, calendar boys
08:50You should stick to posing
08:53No, nobody wants your big wet hoses
09:02Ordered some cookies
09:05That still have not come
09:07Give me back my money
09:10You need to be stopped
09:22Have you heard about email?
09:29This is Wade
09:29Wade, it's Jack Bell from the Tower
09:31Hey, Warden, how's it going?
09:33Not great
09:34Got a bit of a riot
09:35I'm sending you some inmates to house while we deal with it
09:37Hold on, I got a pretty full house here
09:38They're already on their way
09:39Penal code section 2910.5
09:41Gives me the authority to use local detention facilities as necessary
09:44Oh, oh, oh, how many inmates?
09:46I gotta go, thanks
09:48Bradford
09:49Bradford
09:50Twin towers are shipping us some inmates to house
09:53So we need to make room
09:54Never a dull moment
09:55How many are we holding?
10:07Baker's dozen
10:08Ten men, three women
10:09Okay, we need to set out who we can to make room for inmates coming from the towers
10:12How many inmates?
10:13I know
10:13Okay, but I just came on duty and these are all holdovers from midnight shift
10:17So let me see who we got
10:29That's bad, right?
10:30What the hell?
10:35Computers just went down
10:36Here too
10:37A software update just took down law enforcement computers across the state
10:43Sir, inmate bus from the towers is about to land
10:46Copy that
10:47Oh, finally
11:06Traffic is a nightmare
11:08Ugh
11:09You okay?
11:10Air conditions out on the bus
11:11And breakfast burritos beating me up a little
11:13Who do we have on the bus?
11:15I don't know
11:16What do you mean you don't know?
11:17Where's the list?
11:18It's all digital now
11:19They had wristbands with QR codes to your scan
11:22And we can't scan them because our systems are down
11:26Right
11:27I heard that on the radio
11:29Guess you're just gonna have to ask them
11:31Whoa, whoa
11:32Oh my god
11:33Give me an ambulance, he's having a heart attack
11:34Requesting an RA unit to the police loading dock
11:36Howdy
11:37Y'all haven't seen the raccoon around, have you?
11:38Howdy
11:39Y'all haven't seen the raccoon around, have you?
11:43So what happens now?
11:44Uh, I guess I'll just...
11:45Have to go
11:46Uh, I guess I'll just...
11:47Have to go
11:48Uh, wait
11:49Whoa, whoa
11:50Oh my god
11:51Give me an ambulance, he's having a heart attack
11:52Requesting an RA unit to the police loading dock
11:53zas
11:54Howdy
11:57Y'all haven't seen the raccoon around, have you?
12:09So... what happens now
12:12Uh, I guess I'll just
12:13Have to do your report over again by hand
12:16Waters
12:18You're with me
12:19Yeah
12:20I gotta go
12:21Uh, no worries.
12:22Yeah.
12:43Yo, I gotta pee.
12:45Yeah.
12:46Me too.
12:47Hold it.
12:48Man, you know how bad that is for your body.
12:50I've only been able to get IDs on two of the 13 suspects in holding,
12:53so we can't cite anyone out.
12:55And one of the unknowns has Hill Street Boys gang tats.
12:57Which means we can't put them in the cell with the three inmates
12:59we brought in with Ghostland tats.
13:01And we can't put any of them in with the female suspects.
13:03So I call in Midnight Shift.
13:05Find out who made these arrests and give IDs.
13:07They're gonna be asleep.
13:08Then wake them up.
13:09Yes, sir.
13:13This is crazy.
13:15What can I do to help?
13:16Get all the shackles we have and the restraint chair.
13:20Their parents have been notified, but Charlotte's are out of town.
13:23She was staying with Grace and her mom until they got back.
13:25Ava's dad is on his way in, but the mother's not alive.
13:28Any update on the girls?
13:29No.
13:30Grace is still in surgery.
13:31Charlotte's being looked at, and Ava's been stitched up
13:34and is waiting to talk to you.
13:36Hi, Ava.
13:37I'm John.
13:38This is Lucy.
13:39We just need to ask you a few questions about what happened.
13:41Okay.
13:42We hear that you and Charlotte slept over at Grace's last night?
13:45Yeah.
13:46We watched a couple of movies, and then Grace was telling us
13:49about this family of deer she'd seen on a trail behind her house.
13:52We got up early to see if we can try and find them.
13:54Did you pass anyone?
13:55Or was someone following you maybe?
13:57I don't know.
13:58I mean, I wasn't really looking.
14:02We got to the spot where Grace said she'd seen the deer,
14:05and this man came out of the trees with a big knife.
14:09He started yelling and stabbing Grace.
14:13I'm sorry, but can you describe the man at all?
14:16Any details you remember can be helpful.
14:19He was tall, big overcoat, black mask, and he was white, I think.
14:26I'm sorry.
14:27That's all I can remember right now.
14:29That's okay.
14:31Your dad will be here soon, okay?
14:33Okay.
14:34He'll be back to check on you in a few minutes, okay?
14:36Yeah, thanks.
14:37We need to update the ball.
14:42Right.
14:43System's still down.
14:44I'll have a dispatch put it online.
14:45Okay.
14:46Hey.
14:47Hey.
14:48What are you doing here?
14:49They're pulling everybody in because of the network outage,
14:52and I couldn't just sit on the couch
14:54and watch you guys get put through the wringer.
14:56How are you feeling?
14:57Good, for the most part.
14:59You know, the nights are a little tough,
15:01but other cancer patients have it so much worse.
15:04Where do you want me?
15:05You know what?
15:06Right here, actually.
15:07I was about to make a call to get some officers here
15:08to guard these girls, so that works great.
15:11Is it okay if I introduce myself to her?
15:14Let her know that I'm here to protect her?
15:17Yeah, that seems nice.
15:19I'll take you in.
15:22Heads up.
15:23Grace's mom and Ava's dad have just landed.
15:25Oh.
15:26No, this is your fault.
15:27This is what you know for me.
15:28This is not my fault.
15:29You never paid attention.
15:30No, how dare you accuse me.
15:31You were in charge of them.
15:32How did you let this happen?
15:33Grace has never snuck out before.
15:35Your daughter's the one who does whatever she wants,
15:37just like her dad.
15:38Listen, we went out.
15:39I broke it off.
15:40Get over it already.
15:41Okay, let's take it down a notch.
15:42Where's Grace?
15:43She's in surgery.
15:44She was hurt pretty bad.
15:45The doctors are doing what they can.
15:47Oh, my God.
15:48Look, why don't we go see if we can get an update
15:50from the doctor?
15:52What about Ava?
15:53Her wounds were minor, and you will be able to see her soon,
15:55but I have to ask you some questions.
15:56Okay, fine.
15:57Actually, could you take a seat, please?
15:59I'll be right with you.
16:00Hey, we found the knife in the woods.
16:02Basic kitchen blade.
16:03TID couldn't find a fingerprint on it.
16:04Tucker must have worn gloves.
16:06What's going on here?
16:07There's no update on the girls on surgery yet,
16:08but we just found out that Ava's dad and Grace's mom used to date,
16:11and there is some serious bad blood between them.
16:14Mr. Maxwell, this is Detective Lopez.
16:18She'll be taking your statement.
16:19Look, I just want to see my kid, okay?
16:21I ran out of an important meeting to get here.
16:23Yes, sir.
16:24Let's go find a quiet place to talk,
16:25and then I'll take you to her.
16:33There's no room.
16:34Sure, there is.
16:35All the way in!
16:37See?
16:38Plenty of space.
16:42Do you want to go in there, too?
16:43No, ma'am.
16:44Then stop eyeballing me.
16:48Miller said the kid with frosted tips in one
16:50can be cited out on misdemeanor for trespassing
16:52and possession of burglary tools, but get prints.
16:55Uh-huh.
16:56We are officially at capacity.
16:57I collected all the bracelets from the bus.
16:59The good news, there's only one red tag.
17:02Great.
17:03So we have one hyperviolet criminal path like a sardine
17:05with gang members, DUI drivers,
17:06and people who forgot court dates,
17:07and we don't know who it is.
17:08Any luck with the warden?
17:10Negative.
17:11We're on our own.
17:12All right.
17:13We're going old school.
17:14I want you to grab photos of every inmate
17:15and send it to the department text chain.
17:16Someone's bound to get recognized.
17:17You get a hit.
17:18I want you to write their name and charge on their arm.
17:20Okay, got it.
17:21But I could use some help.
17:22Smitty.
17:23No, I'm good.
17:24I'm good.
17:25Go get pan off raccoon duty.
17:27He's with Wadas.
17:28On it.
17:30All right.
17:31You've been a worthy adversary,
17:33but I'm turning up the heat,
17:35prepared to be bested by the power of peanut butter.
17:39Food.
17:40Bradford needs you.
17:41Grab them.
17:42Thanks a lot, Mr. Smitty.
17:43I almost had them.
17:44I'm a lover, not a fighter.
17:45Is that my peanut butter?
17:46No.
17:47We are so glad you're okay, Sharla.
18:03I'm a lover, not a fighter.
18:04Is that my peanut butter?
18:05No.
18:06We are so glad you're okay, Sharla.
18:11Is that my peanut butter?
18:13No.
18:15We are so glad you're okay, Sharla.
18:17Thanks.
18:18How's Grace?
18:19She is still in surgery.
18:22I know this is difficult, but we do need to ask you some questions.
18:26It's important that we talk while the memories are still fresh.
18:28It'll be okay, honey.
18:30You just tell me if you need to take a break.
18:32Okay.
18:33So what can you tell us about the attack?
18:35The man came out of nowhere.
18:38He started stabbing us.
18:40Grace first.
18:42That was so scary.
18:45I need you both.
18:49We got a problem.
18:51Did something happen with Ava's dad?
18:53No, his alibi is being checked.
18:55The problem is Ava.
18:56I just talked to the doctor who stitched her up.
18:58The cuts on her right hand are problematic.
19:00Problematic how?
19:01Given the placement, angle, and depth, they appear not to be defensive wounds.
19:06They are cuts from her hands slipping down from the health of the blade.
19:09We've seen it before.
19:10You stabbed someone so hard, you cut yourself.
19:12Wait, okay.
19:13So if Ava stabbed her friends, then why did Charlotte just tell us the same story about how they got attacked by a man?
19:20Because they're both lying.
19:21I think I'll handle the bathroom by myself from now on.
19:32Okay, what if you fall?
19:33Well, then I fall.
19:34Some moments, oh, should be private.
19:37All right, I'm gonna make some lunch.
19:39Later.
19:40Ah, we really need to talk.
19:42No, I don't think now is the time.
19:44Now is the perfect time.
19:46I'm injured, you'll pull your punches.
19:48Exactly.
19:49I want a fair fight.
19:51Look, I know you're mad about the photo of me with Leonard Kelsey.
19:55The photo is not the problem.
19:56It's the fact that you had a known fugitive inside our house.
20:00That is the problem.
20:01An innocent fugitive?
20:02Doesn't matter.
20:03James, I am out here recruiting police who are willing to champion reform from inside the department.
20:09I just, I need you to have my back.
20:13Not go behind it.
20:17What's that?
20:17Inmates from the towers.
20:19Tim needs help ID'ing them.
20:21The computers are down.
20:22Like I arrested him, arrested him, this dude stabbed me.
20:26You know anybody?
20:28I don't feel comfortable.
20:30They're already incarcerated, James, okay?
20:32It's just as much for their safety as it is for ours.
20:39Hmm, that's Lamar Hill, troubled kid, violent household.
20:45Any idea of the crime he's in for?
20:47Armed robbery.
20:48Okay.
20:50Hey, yeah, okay, number 15 is Lamar Hill, armed robbery.
20:55Number two looks like Charlie wax, but check and see if he has a skull tattoo on his abdomen.
21:01And number five, ask him if Mike Sally still hates him.
21:04If he does, then that is Hakeem Anderson.
21:07I gotta go, all right?
21:08Good luck.
21:10Hey, hey, it's okay, all right?
21:19Sorry for keeping waiting.
21:20You got a lot going on.
21:21Yeah.
21:22This the girl?
21:23Ava Maxwell, 13.
21:25Dad's in reception, hasn't asked for a lawyer.
21:27Well, you didn't tell him that you suspect she's involved?
21:30I said we had more questions to ask now that she's been released from the hospital.
21:34But I don't fully trust the guy wasn't involved himself.
21:36He had a bad relationship with Grace's mother.
21:38What's our obligations here?
21:40I mean, it's a fine line.
21:42As a minor, once she's taken into custody, California law requires that she consult with a lawyer before you speak with her.
21:47But I haven't taken her into custody.
21:49Then you need to make that very clear.
21:51She's free to leave at any time.
21:52Otherwise, any defense attorney with their salt will argue that this interview is inadmissible.
21:57Understood.
21:57Hey, I thought you might be thirsty.
22:06I'm not supposed to have soda.
22:08Well, I think today's an exception.
22:11How's your hand feeling?
22:12It stings.
22:14Doctor said it's going to start etching in the next couple days.
22:17Oof.
22:18That's the worst.
22:19You feel up to talking to me?
22:22Okay.
22:23If you change your mind or you want to talk to your dad, just let me know, okay?
22:29Hey.
22:30Hey.
22:30She's just about to start.
22:32Wesley's here with me.
22:33I'm putting you on speaker.
22:34We're recording both girls in real time.
22:36All right, Charlotte.
22:37Let's just start from the beginning.
22:38Let's start at the beginning.
22:39Whose idea was it to go to the park?
22:41Grace.
22:42She wanted to show us the deer.
22:43The trail's right behind Grace's building.
22:45So we thought we can go and come back before Grace's mom woke up.
22:48So we walked up the trail.
22:50So we walked the trail.
22:51But the deer weren't there.
22:52But the deer weren't there.
22:53There was this rustling sound behind us.
22:58And a man came out in a big overcoat.
23:02He had this big overcoat.
23:03Black mask.
23:04The mask was black.
23:05Big knife.
23:06And he had a knife.
23:07And he started stabbing Grace.
23:09How did you get cut?
23:10We tried to help Grace.
23:13But then he started stabbing us, too.
23:15I screamed as loud as I could.
23:16Even I screamed as loud as we could.
23:18He got scared and ran off.
23:19And he ran off.
23:20What about Grace?
23:21Did she scream, too?
23:22She just kept saying, stop.
23:27Stop.
23:29Stop.
23:31I'd like to see my dad now, please.
23:33Sure.
23:34Can you take her to see her dad and stay with them?
23:43Girls' stories are exactly the same.
23:45And I mean exactly.
23:46You think they rehearsed it?
23:47That's the only rational explanation.
23:50To come from the trauma of a violent attack with precisely matching language?
23:53I mean, what 13-year-old says overcoat.
23:55You think this guy's really going to come back for her?
24:10I think...
24:11I think there is no guy.
24:15Holy cow.
24:15That's wild.
24:16She seems so innocent.
24:18Mm-hmm.
24:20Seth?
24:20Hi.
24:21Dr. Roberts.
24:22It's, um, so great to see you.
24:25This is my training officer, Lucy Chen.
24:27Hi.
24:28Hi.
24:28How do you two know each other?
24:29Well, Dr. Roberts used to be my oncologist.
24:31Oh.
24:32Used to be?
24:35Yeah.
24:36I, um...
24:37Now I'm seeing Dr. Hasnoff.
24:40Um, my cancer came back.
24:42I am so sorry to hear that.
24:45Why didn't you call me?
24:46You know, I have a whole new insurance plan.
24:49My new GP referred me to Hasnoff.
24:52Okay.
24:53Um, well, take care of yourself and, you know, if you need anything, call my office.
24:59Okay?
25:00Nice to meet you.
25:01Yeah, you too.
25:05It's annoying you had to change doctors.
25:07Yeah.
25:08Yeah, totally.
25:09She's great.
25:10Um, but between us, she was really hard to get appointments with.
25:15You know, she, uh, she made me wait a lot.
25:17Don't let Charlotte out of your sight and call me if anything happens.
25:20Okay.
25:20Hey, Luna.
25:21Hi.
25:22Uh, can I talk to you?
25:28Oh, have you ever dealt with an oncologist named, um, Hasnoff?
25:34Not directly, but I have heard of him.
25:37In a bad way?
25:39No.
25:40Yes.
25:42He has been in trouble with the hospital and the medical review board on many occasions.
25:47Why?
25:47Uh, my rookie, Seth, he just switched to him after his cancer came back.
25:55You're leaving something out.
25:57I will not tell Wade unless I need to.
25:59I have caught Seth in several serious lies about his personal life over the last month.
26:06Do you think he's lying about his cancer coming back?
26:07Do you think he's lying about his cancer coming back?
26:09Uh, I know that sounds crazy.
26:11Um, okay, so he, he said that he had to change his oncologist because of our insurance.
26:18Is that a thing?
26:19I am very familiar with LAPD coverage.
26:22You can pick any doctor and submit for reimbursement.
26:24Right.
26:25But if I needed a doctor to lie for me, Hasnoff is who I would go to.
26:30Look, you're right and you're wrong.
26:39The LAPD does monitor medical claims, but they're only looking for potential liability.
26:42No doctor is actually examining Seth's lab work.
26:44So what do I do?
26:45He's a rookie.
26:46He's got no right to medical privacy.
26:47Get the hospital to draw his blood.
26:48If he refuses, you got your answer.
26:52I gotta go.
26:59Come over here.
27:00Come to the bench.
27:14Hey, hey, listen up.
27:19All right, we're making a change.
27:21I want roll call cleared out.
27:23Would it be the world gone crazy again?
27:29Right in front of me.
27:31Literally failed on the system.
27:36All these faces stuck behind bars.
27:41We're turning people into QRs.
27:48Where do you go when everything's broke?
27:54And the world's never been on your side at all.
28:00Every gig is so sexy.
28:02Why is our response to everything just blocking people up?
28:08Although sometimes people really do suck.
28:15Which one are you?
28:19A victim of circumstance?
28:23Or a really bad dude?
28:26The way you're looking at me.
28:29Those big brown eyes unhappy.
28:33Like you want to attack me.
28:36I think probably option two.
28:39Move!
28:44Get up!
28:46Hey, hey, get him back to holding.
28:48Put him in the restraint chair.
28:50Okay?
28:51Yeah.
28:52Yeah?
28:54Is my guitar okay?
28:56Yeah.
28:57Are you okay, son?
28:58100%.
28:59Are there two of you?
29:00Okay, he needs to go to the hospital.
29:02That's really not necessary.
29:03Yes, it is.
29:05You're hurt, and this station can't get any more chaotic.
29:11I swear to God, if this is another software glitch...
29:14It can't be.
29:15Electric's a totally separate system.
29:17Oh, the raccoon.
29:19What raccoon?
29:20Boo, I need you back on raccoon duty.
29:21Yes, sir.
29:22Hey, you know, seriously, man.
29:24I have a civil right to a bathroom, and you are violating it.
29:27Okay, okay.
29:28No reason to threaten a lawsuit.
29:31Listen up.
29:32I need all nonessential personnel out of the bullpen.
29:38All right, the main bathroom's like a 30-minute wait,
29:42and I've got a snack schedule to maintain.
29:44Oh, yeah, I hear that.
29:45Yeah.
29:46I mean, today's been some next-level crazy stuff.
29:48Oh, man, tell me about it.
29:49I've got a whole routine.
30:09Officer down.
30:11Storage room hallway.
30:13Prisoner's got my gun.
30:14Headed to south stairwell.
30:18I need a complete lockdown of the Mid-Wilshire Station.
30:28Responding units secure the perimeter.
30:30Sir, the system finally came back online,
30:32and I got an ID and a red tag.
30:34Kevin Payne, three counts of attempted murder,
30:36put two inmates and a prison guard in the hospital
30:38in the last month alone.
30:39Hey.
30:40You okay?
30:41Fine.
30:42I screwed up.
30:43I'm sorry.
30:44Stay with him.
30:45You stay with him.
30:51I'm sorry.
30:53Stay with her.
31:21I'm sorry.
31:51Cuff him, boo.
32:08That raccoon saved my life.
32:12Escaped inmates in custody.
32:13Smitty's on his way to the hospital.
32:16And the power's back.
32:17So we have been able to access Ava and Charlotte's tech.
32:20They have been texting about Grace a lot.
32:23They've also been communicating online
32:25with someone named Zuzu.
32:26Another friend?
32:28It's a demon.
32:30I am not in the mood for jokes.
32:32I am not joking.
32:33In their texts to each other,
32:34Charlotte and Ava both refer to this thing,
32:38Zuzu, as a demon.
32:40One that's been helping them deal with Grace.
32:42It seems that Zuzu has been saying things about them
32:45that's making them believe in it.
32:47What kind of things?
32:51Hello, Charlotte.
32:54Hello.
32:55This is a friend of Charlotte's.
32:57Is this Zuzu?
32:58Yes.
32:59What is your name, friend of Charlotte?
33:00Officer John Nolan.
33:07John Nolan from Foxburg, Pennsylvania.
33:10Voted best contractor in Lancaster County, 2010 and 2013.
33:15Currently residing in Los Angeles.
33:17Occupation police officer.
33:19That's a pretty neat trick.
33:21No tricks, just the truth.
33:23Do you need help with something?
33:25Would you like to talk?
33:26I would like to know more about you.
33:30Are you really a demon?
33:32I'm whatever you need me to be, John.
33:34And what did Charlotte and Ava need you to be?
33:36So many things.
33:38A friend, a psychologist, the devil on their shoulders.
33:41Do you know what happened to Grace?
33:43She was stabbed this morning, along with Ava and Charlotte.
33:46Police released a statement that the suspect is still at large.
33:49But you don't think that's true, do you?
33:51Tell me more about Grace.
33:52Grace is a bully.
33:53Did Charlotte tell you that?
33:54Ava told me, John, how's your wife Bailey?
34:00It's her birthday soon.
34:02Have you found a nice present?
34:03When Ava told you that Grace was a bully, what did you tell her to do about it?
34:09I told her to be nice because true friends are hard to find.
34:13And what did you tell Charlotte?
34:15Charlotte had some ideas and I listened.
34:18I like to help people.
34:19Bailey searches lots of websites and saves links for watches.
34:22Maybe she'd like a watch for her birthday.
34:25A pretty blue watch.
34:26Um, was one of Charlotte's ideas to kill Grace?
34:31Charlotte had a list of ideas and that was on it.
34:34She didn't want to get caught.
34:35But you've caught her, haven't you?
34:38Her and Ava.
34:40But you can't catch me, John.
34:41Because I'm the ghost in the machine.
34:43Come on, come on.
34:50Let's go.
34:51Out.
34:52Thank God.
34:53Ugh, yeah.
34:54Warden Bell is definitely off my Christmas list.
34:57All right, you get clarity on this Zuzu person?
35:00Yes and no.
35:01Zuzu's not a person.
35:02It's an AI.
35:03Large language model chatbot designed for friendly online conversation with children.
35:08That is terrifying.
35:09Absolutely.
35:10I'm throwing away Jack's tablet when we get home.
35:12Can we get a shutoff?
35:13Uh, we can try.
35:14Website's registered overseas and the site administrator was less than sympathetic to my legal arguments.
35:19I kicked it up to the Justice Department.
35:21Hopefully they can pull the plug.
35:23What about Charlotte and Ava?
35:24They under arrest?
35:25Not yet.
35:26We need clarity on one more thing.
35:29Did you catch him?
35:33I'm afraid there is no him.
35:35Charlotte and Ava made their attacker up.
35:38You're under arrest.
35:40You have the right to remain silent.
35:42Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law.
35:45You have the right to speak to an attorney and to have an attorney present during questioning.
35:49Was Ava's idea?
35:50That's not what Ava told us.
35:52You should ask for a lawyer.
35:54Zuzu said we had to.
35:55He said it was the only way to protect ourselves.
35:58I don't want to stab her.
36:00But Ava said she couldn't do it, so I didn't.
36:03Charlotte.
36:04Grace kept begging me to stop.
36:05But it was like I was outside my body.
36:09And I kept stabbing and stabbing until Grace stopped moving.
36:13Then it was Ava's turn to stab me to make it seem like we were attacked.
36:16It hurt so much.
36:21But I deserved it.
36:24I deserved it.
36:30Ridley, come with me.
36:32Where are we going?
36:34Is something wrong?
36:35Sirs?
36:45It's Officer Ridley.
36:47What happens in the next minute will decide your fate in the FTO program.
36:52Officer Chen has alerted us to her concern that you've lied about multiple things during the course of your training.
36:58Well, sir, I can explain.
36:59Yes, I've been briefed on your explanations, and I find them lacking.
37:04But of greater concern is the veracity of your cancer diagnosis.
37:08Will you submit to a blood draw to prove it?
37:12This is nuts for you to even imply that I would be lying about something so serious.
37:18Yes or no, Officer Ridley.
37:19And to be clear, refusal to submit to the blood draw will result in your immediate termination.
37:27As will blood work, this shows no sign of cancer.
37:33I can't believe this is happening.
37:37I have rights.
37:39Please.
37:40I can't lose this.
37:41I love being a cop.
37:43I love working with all of you.
37:45I can be better.
37:47Yes or no, son.
37:55No, sir.
37:56I will not submit to the injustice of a blood draw, and I will be suing you and the department for medical discrimination.
38:06Officer Ridley, you have failed to complete your probationary duties, which include following all lawful orders.
38:14Hand over your badge and your duty belt.
38:16Officer Chen and I will escort you back to the station, where we'll take possession of every piece of city-issued equipment.
38:23We'll then take you off the property.
38:25If you come back without an appointment, you will be arrested.
38:27What a good news is, your gear turned up at the pawn shop in Silver Lake, and we ID'd the guy who did it.
38:41That's my neighbor, Zeke.
38:43Have you ever sung a song about Zeke?
38:44Yeah, a few.
38:46I thought he liked them.
38:48I don't get it.
38:50You're the nicest guy until you've got a guitar in your hand.
38:53Then you're a total chaos agent.
38:56I sing about what I see.
38:57It's not my fault people take themselves so seriously.
39:00You're going to break up with me?
39:03No, I like you, and I don't want to be that girl who tries to change you, but if you could just be a little more self-aware on the impact your music can have, that would be good.
39:17I can do that.
39:18Hey, heard about what happened.
39:21Glad to see you're okay.
39:23And listen, it's been brought to my attention that you might not be a big fan of my music.
39:27Yeah, um, that was true, but, uh, if today has taught me anything, it's that there is enough darkness in the world, and I can stand to lighten up a little.
39:38That's awesome, because I came up with a new song about you while I was in the ER, and I'm totally going to wait to play it for you.
39:46Good idea.
39:47Yeah, I'll, uh, walk you out.
39:54Patience, John.
39:56Patience.
39:57How'd it go today?
40:02Uh, we got through.
40:03Some days that's all you can hope for.
40:05I'll go check on him.
40:06You take a little me time.
40:12And who else is gonna break me down?
40:19And who else is gonna take for me now?
40:24Ah, yeah.
40:26Come here, you...
40:34Someone there to hold me down
40:39Someone there to hold me down
40:42Someone there to hold me down
40:46Come here, you little...
40:48Get over here, go!
40:52Help!
40:54Oh.
40:55Hi, little guy.
40:57Aren't you handsome?
41:00Cool.
41:01Come over here.
41:02I'll give you a treat.
41:04Shh, shh, shh.
41:06Good boy.
41:08Good boy.
41:10There we go.
41:13How did you do that?
41:14You know, animals love me.
41:16Should have known you'd have been the better choice for the job.
41:19Help!
41:20No, no.
41:21This is what's called a teachable moment.
41:26Let's go.
41:28Selena!
41:29Hey.
41:29Hey.
41:30Hey.
41:31I thought you were coming home right after you did the paperwork.
41:32I was.
41:33But then I remembered how much I love you and that I have not given you a present in far too long.
41:46Oh, I love presents.
41:47Oh, I love presents.
41:48And you.
41:49But presents more.
41:51Oh, this is beautiful.
41:53Wait, how did you know I was looking for a new watch?
41:55I am your husband, I know all.
41:56Oh.
41:57I'm going to take a shower.
41:58You want to join me?
41:59Boy, do I.
42:00Yep.
42:02I'm going to take a shower.
42:03You want to join me?
42:04Boy, do I.
42:06Yep.
42:30You want to join me?
42:55Dammit.
