00:00You didn't nap, did you?
00:10I didn't have time.
00:11I gotta find a new place to live.
00:13No excuse, boot.
00:14Napping is the key to midnight shift.
00:17No shorter than 20 minutes or longer than 40.
00:19But hey, if you're comfortable ignoring my institutional wisdom...
00:21I'm getting evicted.
00:23Whose fault is that?
00:24Not mine.
00:25I'm turning my building into condos.
00:27That's what happens when you gentrify a working-class neighborhood.
00:40What the hell is that?
00:42What?
00:44That.
00:50There was a guy standing there with a mask on.
00:53He was like seven feet tall.
00:55Mm-hmm.
00:57I saw him.
00:58He was right there.
01:00Bo, if you'd make me get out of this car for hallucination...
01:09What?
01:10God, he was right here.
01:27Make-believe time is over.
01:29Stop!
01:43Police!
01:43Tim?
01:59Tim?
01:59Tim?
01:59Step out.
02:17Step out!
02:23Hands where I can see them.
02:27Peel the mask off slowly.
02:29Slowly.
02:39Welcome to Midnight, Officer Jen.
02:49No.
02:50No!
02:51Ugh.
02:59Hey.
03:00Happy to be back on days?
03:01God, yes.
03:02I don't know if you heard, but it was good.
03:05Tim had shirts made.
03:06Of course he did.
03:07Well, you know, just wait until it's your turn, Officer in bed by 10.
03:11What can I say?
03:12I'm a morning person.
03:13Mm-hmm.
03:14Good morning.
03:15You're here bright and early.
03:16If you're not early, you're late.
03:17That's a stupid sign.
03:18What's your problem?
03:19I want my name, too.
03:20It's not the T-shirt, although it is annoying.
03:21I can't find a place to live.
03:22You could always move back home.
03:23No, I really can't.
03:24Or you can bunk up with Nolan.
03:25He lives in a mansion.
03:26Hey, it's not a mansion.
03:27It's a guest house of a mansion.
03:29But you're welcome to crash on the couch if you need to.
03:31Yeah, thanks.
03:32But I am determined to find a nice, clean, affordable place to live, even if it kills
03:36me.
03:37It's not a mansion.
03:38It's not a mansion.
03:39It's a guest house of a mansion.
03:42But you're welcome to crash on the couch if you need to.
03:44Yeah, thanks.
03:45But I am determined to find a nice, clean, affordable place to live, even if it kills
03:50me.
03:51It's not a mansion.
04:01I don't know, Officer Nolan.
04:03You will be leading the roll call this morning.
04:07Sir?
04:08I didn't stutter.
04:09Get up there.
04:20What now?
04:21The clipboard.
04:23A memo to all divisions from the Chief of Police.
04:27Complaints about police officer entitlement have risen sharply during the last few months.
04:31Sir?
04:32Do you know what that means?
04:34Police officer entitlement.
04:36I assume it has to do with unauthorized perks, free food, things of that nature?
04:41And what is LAPD's policy on gratuities?
04:47No officer shall receive any gratuity, gift, favor, or promise thereof as it may result
04:53in or be perceived as payment in exchange for influence, bias, or direction of an investigation
04:59or enforcement of punishable offenses.
05:02Nicely done.
05:05Chen West, will you please join Officer Nolan up front?
05:16Have your training officers discussed this policy with you?
05:18Yes, sir.
05:19And what was your takeaway?
05:20Sir, if I may?
05:21Oh.
05:22Sounds like a little CYA.
05:24No, sir.
05:25Food and I walk the straight and narrow.
05:27But businesses like having cops around.
05:29A half-priced meal every once in a while is just community relations.
05:32Doesn't mean we show them favoritism.
05:34You agree with this, Officer Bishop?
05:36I'm not saying I've never accepted a free cup of coffee, but it's usually the exception,
05:41not the norm.
05:42What about you, Officer Nolan?
05:44I got into this job to help people, not to help myself to free stuff.
05:49Cute line.
05:50It's a bunch of bull, but...
05:52It's not.
05:53Really?
05:54Do you pay fair market value for that beach house you live in?
05:57No, sir, but I act as caretaker for the main house when Ben is away, so technically I'm
06:02exchanging services for my rent.
06:04And what happens when that exchange isn't enough and your buddy gets a ticket off?
06:09Or worse?
06:10Then he'll have to pay for his actions.
06:12Okay.
06:14Favors are a slippery slope, people.
06:15And so are freebies.
06:17Look, I like to keep it real in here.
06:20There is the letter of the law and there is the spirit.
06:23It is your job to know the difference.
06:26But make no mistake, as police officers, you have power.
06:32Usually we like to focus on the kind that you holster on your side.
06:36But the power that lives within your badge can be equally as dangerous.
06:41That's it.
06:43All right, guys, be safe out there.
06:47Seven Adam 19, break in at Westside Fertility Clinic.
06:51You haven't received a single freebie since I've been with you, so why did you defend that to Gray?
06:55Because hard rules like that are stupid.
06:57What we do doesn't exist in a vacuum.
06:59Circumstances dictate actions, not the other way around.
07:03Police?
07:04Anyone here?
07:06Yes.
07:07We had a break in.
07:08Yeah, I can see that.
07:09There's been a rash of burglaries in the neighborhood recently.
07:12Mostly addicts looking for stuff to sell.
07:14This wasn't an addict.
07:15They took embryos.
07:17That's a new one on me.
07:18Do I write this up as a burglary or an abduction?
07:22You want to put out 50 amber alerts?
07:24It's a burglary.
07:25Officer, there's a crucial time element here.
07:28Without proper temperature control, those embryos will be compromised.
07:31Any idea who took them?
07:32They're part of an ugly custody dispute.
07:35A lesbian couple.
07:36The eggs we harvested were from only one of the women, Marilyn Tinney.
07:40Her ex is suing for custody rights, even though she doesn't have a biological connection.
07:44Okay.
07:45We're going to need names and addresses for both women.
07:47Of course.
07:48But you should know, when I called Marilyn to tell her, she got very upset.
07:53Said she was going to kill her.
07:56License and registration, please.
08:00Look, I don't have time for this.
08:01Look, no one does, but you blew through that stop sign.
08:03Because Prince Charles is going to die.
08:06Excuse me?
08:07My dog.
08:08He's a King Charles Cavalier, and he just ate a whole bag of macadamia nuts.
08:11Look, I'm sorry, but I still have to write you.
08:13You're kidding.
08:14I'm racing him to the vets.
08:15They have to pump his stomach.
08:16Those nuts are toxic for dogs.
08:17Look, I understand, but this will only take a minute.
08:19License and registration, please.
08:21If he dies.
08:30Hope your dog's okay.
08:31Have a nice day.
08:33Go to hell.
08:39Do you think a ticket was the best resolution, Officer West?
08:42You heard Sergeant Gray this morning?
08:44We have to remain vigilant.
08:46If we let everyone who's in a rush off the hook, the city would be undriveable.
08:49Her dog is dying.
08:50A warning would have been sufficient.
08:51Okay, a dog that size would have to eat a pound of nuts to induce ataxia.
08:55She drove through the stop sign in the school zone.
08:57It's a pretty serious infraction.
08:58We blow stop signs all the time, and park on lawns, and drive on the wrong side of the road.
09:02Okay, that's different.
09:03We're cops.
09:04We only do it when necessary.
09:05Exactly.
09:06Discretion is an important part of this job, even if the outcome is different than following the letter of the law.
09:10With all due respect, I was raised differently.
09:13The law's a law.
09:16I can't believe you took them.
09:17Those are mine!
09:18They are not yours!
09:19They're mine!
09:20Give them to me!
09:21Not right now!
09:22Don't stare at me again.
09:23Listen, I said give them to me!
09:24LAPD, we're coming in.
09:26They're mine too.
09:27They are not.
09:28Hey, put down the weapon.
09:29Those are my embryos.
09:30She stole them from the clinic.
09:31No!
09:32They are your eggs, and we had them fertilized by a sperm donor together, you remember?
09:36Yeah.
09:37And the judge ruled that I get to use them.
09:39Do you remember that?
09:40Not if they're gone!
09:41Officer Chet, secure her.
09:43Give me the tubes.
09:45No.
09:46Please.
09:47Those are my last chance to carry my own baby.
09:53Please.
09:55Don't take that from me.
09:58Please.
09:59We're supposed to have kids together.
10:04I saw you through your whole cancer treatment, and then you dumped me for a yoga instructor?
10:11Wait, wait, wait, wait.
10:12Hey.
10:13Mr. Nui.
10:14You're angry.
10:15You have every right to be.
10:18But doing this, it won't put your marriage back together.
10:21Okay?
10:22Nothing will.
10:23But you will come to hate yourself if you go through with this.
10:29So put the tubes back in that container.
10:32You think I'm compromised living at Ben's house?
10:45Probably.
10:46You asked.
10:47Yeah, but I meant what I said to Sergeant Gray.
10:48If he asked me for a favor, I'd say no.
10:49Why even put yourself in that position?
10:50If it were me, I'd have to pay my own way.
10:51Like a grown-up.
10:52Driver okay?
10:53He's been stabbed, left side.
10:54Looks like he passed out, then hit his head in the crash.
10:55Any ID?
10:56Not that I can find.
10:57Control, I need you to run the following plates.
10:59Five, Frank, Victor, Alpha, 2-7.
11:00Call registered to Matthew Rodriguez.
11:01Date of birth, 7-7-1990.
11:02Copy that.
11:03Send another unit to our location for an accident report.
11:04It appears Mr. Rodriguez has been the victim of an assault.
11:05We're accompanying RA to the hospital.
11:06We'll follow you.
11:07Got it.
11:08I got it.
11:09I got it.
11:10You got it.
11:11You got it.
11:12You got it.
11:13You got it.
11:14You got it.
11:15You got it.
11:16You got it.
11:17You got it.
11:18You got it.
11:19You got it.
11:20You got it.
11:21You got it.
11:22You got it.
11:23You got it.
11:24You got it.
11:25I'm carrying an RA to the hospital.
11:26We'll follow you.
11:27Got it.
11:28That guy didn't get stabbed driving alone, so either it happened before he got in the
11:32car or his attacker bolted after the accident.
11:36I got to admit, I thought there'd be more mysteries on this job.
11:40We'd be happy there aren't.
11:41The unknown is a pain in the butt.
11:43Sure.
11:44Just tell everyone's Dynamite you want, I'll puzzle this off.
11:517- Hallelujah.
11:53The victim, on foot, force, Cesar Chavez, southbound.
12:05Okay, now I really want to know what happened.
12:14So our vehicle is registered to Matthew Rodriguez, but our stabbing victim is not Matthew Rodriguez.
12:20Hmm. Looks like Mr. Rodriguez has a rap sheet with gang orders. You know what those are?
12:25It means a judge ordered him not to associate with gang members, wear their colors, or go to their neighborhood.
12:30Odds are a guy like that is connected to our John Doe stabbing.
12:33I thought officers were supposed to avoid making assumptions.
12:35There's a big difference between making an assumption and a likely scenario.
12:39Which is? Oh, let me guess. When it comes from you, it's a likely scenario.
12:43There's hope for you yet, Officer Nolan.
12:45Now, let's pay Mr. Rodriguez a visit and see if he can shine some light on our stabbing.
12:507-N-0-7, respond to a false imprisonment call, 974 Ocampo Street.
12:55Hi, are you the manager?
12:56Yes, hi.
12:57Sir, we received a call that one of your customers is being held against their will.
13:00He's not a customer, he's a scam artist.
13:02Excuse me?
13:03This guy sets up first dates with women, runs up the bill, and then sneaks out the back door.
13:08He's been doing it at restaurants all over the neighborhood.
13:10He tried to do it to that poor woman over there, but one of our kitchen staff caught him and locked his ass in the walking fridge.
13:15Give us a minute.
13:22Seems like you're having a pretty bad day.
13:24Tinder is like the clearance rack at an outlet store.
13:27Dating apps are all bad.
13:28He ordered a $500 bottle of wine for lunch, and then the charcuterie board, and the cheese plate, and that steak au poivre, and the bill is $680.
13:40I don't know how I'm going to cover my rent this month.
13:44Did you already order dessert?
13:46No.
13:47Go ahead and get something.
13:49Maybe two things.
13:50Why?
13:52Look, I know what you're doing.
13:54She bumped up the bill to $700.
13:55We can charge a date with a felony.
13:57Very good, Officer West.
13:58It's not our job to put our thumb on the scale and change the outcome here.
14:01Are you lecturing me on police work, Boo?
14:03No, but it's still something.
14:05But nothing.
14:06Go hook up our dine and dasher.
14:10Definitely get the creme brulee.
14:15The best creme brulee in the city.
14:18Seriously?
14:19You're totally fine with this.
14:21Susan isn't stuck paying the bill since the owners can write it off as theft.
14:24The only person paying for the crime is this jerk who committed it.
14:27That's the spirit of the law.
14:29Now, take a bite.
14:31No, I don't want it.
14:32Come on, get off your high horse and try a little.
14:34No, I think it's...
14:37Just a little bite.
14:39Come on.
14:43Wow.
14:44Mm-hmm.
14:44Told you.
14:47Matthew Rodriguez!
14:48Police!
14:49Open up!
14:50Nolan.
14:52Ready?
14:53Mm-hmm.
14:53Well, I guess now we know who stabbed our John Doe.
15:03You sound disappointed.
15:04No, I just thought it might be a little less cut and dry.
15:07Well, believe me, cut and dry is a lot less paperwork.
15:10Seven item 15, we need a homicide unit at 4495 Barrington.
15:14Our John Doe is now a murder suspect.
15:22You're not done yet?
15:23At this stage in training, you should have knocked that out in two minutes.
15:26What's the problem?
15:27I'm not sure how to write it.
15:30It's a simple grand theft report.
15:32It's not simple.
15:33Or we made that case a felony.
15:35Something that should have been a citation.
15:36We turned it into a weekend in jail.
15:39And you want me to lie on the report?
15:40I seem to remember writing a report about you.
15:45Second day on the job.
15:48And the truth about your cowardice in the line of fire.
15:51Ringing a bell?
15:53Yeah.
15:55And I'm grateful you know that, but I'm not...
15:57But what, boot?
15:59More than any other rookie, you should know the difference between the spirit and the letter.
16:03Unless you don't think it applies to you.
16:05Are you the exception, Officer West?
16:08No, ma'am.
16:08Yeah, here you are, acting holier than thou.
16:12Tell me something.
16:13Do you carry a push knife?
16:15One of those fight-for-your-life, last-resort, do-or-die kind of knives.
16:19You know that I do.
16:20I mean, my dad gave it to me.
16:23Oh, right.
16:25Your father, who all the walks in the water.
16:27Only this knife is illegal.
16:30Yeah, right.
16:30I mean, half the department carry these.
16:32Penal code section 12020.
16:34The very bottom.
16:36Technically, it's a dagger.
16:38Look it up if you don't believe me.
16:42Look, if it's true, then I just won't carry one anymore.
16:46That is the wrong lesson to learn here.
16:48You're in for a hard fall if you can't see the difference between righteous and rigid.
16:52And if that wasn't the first thing your father taught you, he failed you.
16:57Now, fill out the damn report.
17:01We've got to get back out there.
17:05It doesn't seem right to lock up Marilyn, too.
17:07She was only trying to protect her embryos.
17:09Nothing we can do.
17:10She committed an assault.
17:11Domestic violence laws are strict for a reason.
17:13What happened to circumstances dictate actions?
17:16Trust me.
17:17This is one rule I'm all for.
17:18Cemeteries are filled with women who'd still be alive if cops have been forced to hook up
17:22their spouses the second he or she laid hands.
17:24That is a very enlightened attitude.
17:27You seem surprised.
17:29Sir, you surprise me every day.
17:31Uh-huh.
17:32Go gas up the shop.
17:35Hey, how's it going?
17:36Hey.
17:37It's been an interesting morning.
17:38How about you?
17:39Same.
17:39Found a dead body at the Langston, the whole shirt.
17:41How was it?
17:43What a bruise.
17:44The guy took a bullet right to his, uh...
17:45Oh, wait.
17:46Not the body.
17:46The apartment.
17:48Oh, uh, it was nice.
17:50Surprisingly upscale for a gang member.
17:52Are you asking for you?
17:54Well, the building needs to disclose if someone was killed in the apartment, so it might mean
17:58a break in rent.
17:59Yeah, just a bit of a questionable way to find a place to live, no?
18:03Yeah, well, traditional clearly isn't working out, so...
18:06Let's go, boo.
18:07Captain wants to see us.
18:08That should hold you until you get to the hospital.
18:13Captain.
18:14What's going on?
18:18That's our murder suspect.
18:19He's not a suspect, Officer Nolan.
18:21He's an undercover narcotics detective.
18:23Robert Ortiz.
18:24I'm sorry about the ambulance thing.
18:26I've been undercover in Salauma for almost a year, working my way closer to the offshoot
18:35in Boyle Heights called Ocampo Loco.
18:37They control the cash flow and then bundle the drug money and ship it back to Mexico.
18:41How much money are we talking?
18:42Right now, at least a million.
18:44The word is they're going to ship it tonight.
18:46I was about to report it when my cover was blown by Matthew Rodriguez, who tried to kill
18:50me, so I shot him in self-defense.
18:53You know the rest.
18:54Officer Ortiz has bravely volunteered to go back in to protect his cover and set up our
18:58tactical operation.
19:00Last time I was at the house, there was four Alcones guarding the money.
19:03Heavy hitters.
19:05We're going to gear up heavy, position ourselves down the street, being ready to initiate a
19:09full-blown raid on the house once Ortiz gives us a signal.
19:12Rookies, this is your first high-level tactical operation.
19:16Let's be prepared.
19:18Did you read the search warrant?
19:19Yes, ma'am.
19:208531 Winchester Boulevard.
19:22Residence is the 1800s Victorian with five bedrooms and two bathrooms and a guest house.
19:26Front door?
19:27Solid oak with a copper handle on the right side.
19:31You know the specs of this equipment, Officer Chen?
19:33It's a Black Hawk Dynamic Entry Special Operant.
19:37How much does it weigh?
19:3860 pounds, sir.
19:39Hold it tight.
19:40You'll be the breacher.
19:41You'll buy a round for every swing it takes to knock that door down.
19:44Walk me through a tactical gear check.
19:47Stock zip ties in the loops of the tack vest.
19:49And then?
19:50Secure any loose gear.
19:52Tack vest, helmet, etc.
19:54Finally, secure firearm to a thyroid.
19:55Very good.
19:57Any questions?
19:59What if I have to pee?
20:02I'll hold it.
20:02I'm good.
20:07All units.
20:08We're 30 seconds out.
20:09Get ready.
20:10Be safe.
20:17Officer West, you do the 844.
20:19Stand by to initiate.
20:24Ortiz is in.
20:25Where the hell you been?
20:26Rodriguez was talking to the cops.
20:27He tried to stick me when I called him out.
20:29So I put a bullet in his head.
20:31We gotta get out of here.
20:32You couldn't give him this place.
20:33How the hell are we gonna do that?
20:34We got a million in casualty.
20:35Back it out.
20:36It's too hot to stay here.
20:37That's the signal initiate.
20:38I'm a mess.
20:53She's so long.
20:55I can tell her she's so fucking dressed in my life.
20:58She's so sweet.
21:00I'll check your seat.
21:01Police!
21:02Open the door.
21:03We have a search warrant.
21:07Open the door.
21:08Open the door to the right.
21:10Don't miss the knee.
21:12Open the door.
21:13Don't let me open you up.
21:14Show me your hands.
21:15Don't let me touch it.
21:16Don't let me touch it.
21:17Don't let me touch it.
21:18Step back or I'll shoot.
21:19Get down on your knees now.
21:21Clear.
21:21You good?
21:23Yeah.
21:24Hands up.
21:24Fingers behind your head.
21:26Do it now.
21:26Back up.
21:29Hands up.
21:30You okay?
21:35Yeah.
21:36Barely.
21:36Whatever.
21:37It's at the hospital on the way out.
21:39Clear.
21:39Coming up.
21:45It's the best of the assignment.
21:47Follow me.
21:47Sorry.
21:53Here's what happens now.
21:55The money counters and the videographer are on their way.
21:58In the meantime, you three get to watch the money.
22:01Two people with it at all times.
22:03No selfies.
22:05Enjoy.
22:12Where does all this money go?
22:14Cass sees during drug raids goes back to narcotics,
22:17where it's used again for undercover ops.
22:19That's more money than I've ever seen in one place.
22:22Can you imagine?
22:25I'd buy a car.
22:26No.
22:27A helicopter.
22:29And learn to fly it so I could avoid all the traffic.
22:31Yeah.
22:32That first big purchase is always tricky, right?
22:34The barber in Foxburg, he won the lottery.
22:37Bought a big, fancy boat.
22:39Ran it aground in Freeport.
22:41Coked the gills.
22:42I don't think a boat is a good idea.
22:43What about you?
22:44What'd you spend it on?
22:45I'm not playing that game.
22:47It's drug money.
22:48Mom, we're just talking.
22:49A million dollars lands on your doorstep.
22:52What do you do?
22:53Go.
22:54And don't say you'd set aside 30% for taxes.
22:57Um, a new car, I guess.
22:59Um, or maybe a trip.
23:02Been wanting to do a little traveling.
23:03Let me guess.
23:05You'd visit police departments all around the world.
23:08Learn their techniques.
23:10No.
23:15I'd pay all of Henry's tuition.
23:17With the money.
23:18Because we didn't have those student loans hanging over his head.
23:21Yeah, they're no fun.
23:23I'll be paying mine off until I'm 60.
23:26Yeah, well, with this money, you could pay them all off and still rent an amazing place by the ocean.
23:32Meanwhile, I couldn't afford to buy the room and the house I'm living in.
23:35Better would have got you something pretty nice back in Foxburg, though.
23:37Mm.
23:38Biggest house in town and then some.
23:41Still can't get used to the cost of living in Los Angeles.
23:43It's like you have to add an extra zero to everything.
23:45You know, I never really thought about money growing up.
23:48We all just had enough, you know?
23:50Yeah.
23:51That's what I thought.
23:52Until my parents went bankrupt when I was nine.
23:56It took a couple of really bad years before we got back up on our feet.
24:00Well, I've been there.
24:02If it had been days where I would have killed to be sitting across from this much money.
24:07There for the taking.
24:08Hey, don't even joke about that.
24:10I've heard too many stories from my dad about cops who started filling their pockets.
24:13convincing themselves that it was a victimless crime.
24:16That they were entitled to a little extra compensation for their troubles.
24:19Okay, well, relax.
24:21It's not us.
24:22Yeah, that's what they thought at first, too.
24:23But then you take a body of the creme brulee and the next thing you know,
24:26you're doing three to five for felony theft.
24:29I'm sorry, creme brulee?
24:31Never mind.
24:32Oh, man.
24:34What?
24:34Why does I still have to pee with all this?
24:39I'll go right back.
24:43Hold on.
24:45Just finished.
24:46Bad guy's on the way to jail.
24:47Ortiz on his way to the hospital, so we're headed out.
24:49You're not waiting for us?
24:50Nope.
24:50But we're leaving a shot behind.
24:52Remember, shift starts tomorrow at noon.
24:54But you want to get in early to do tonight's paperwork.
24:56Copy that.
24:57Are the money counters going to get here soon?
24:59I'd get comfortable if I were you.
25:01Those guys work at their own pace.
25:03Oh, where's the...
25:05I'd still do the job.
25:16Even if I came into money.
25:19That's not a shock.
25:21You know, I would, too.
25:24You've known what you've wanted to do since birth,
25:26but I just figured out there's no way I would bail now.
25:31What about you?
25:32Having money makes things easier, not better.
25:37That's not an answer.
25:39Would you quit the job?
25:41And pass up on being hazed on a daily basis
25:43by training officers ten years of my junior income?
25:46All right.
25:57Officers Grazer and Williams are riding on the scene.
25:591.17 a.m.
26:00We're leaving three uniformed officers.
26:02What are your names?
26:03Nolan Chen West.
26:05Anyone else is coming or out?
26:06No, ma'am.
26:07Great.
26:09Get the road.
26:10We got it from here.
26:10You coming?
26:17We might never see this much money again.
26:20If there's ever another raid
26:22and they need someone to sit and wait
26:24until the wee hours,
26:25I have a feeling it'll be us.
26:32Nolan, wake up!
26:35Nolan!
26:37Nolan!
26:37Nolan!
26:37Nolan!
26:40Did I oversleep?
26:48Ship starts at noon.
26:49Captain called me to bring you in early.
26:50Why?
26:51She didn't say.
26:52That sounds bad.
26:53It's not good.
26:54Do I have time to...
26:54Get dressed.
26:59What's going on?
27:00They told us to gather our boots same as you.
27:04We have a situation.
27:05Money counters are telling us
27:06that we're missing $250,000.
27:08And you three
27:10were the only ones left alone
27:11with the money.
27:18Well, the money counters
27:19must have made a mistake.
27:20There's video of them
27:21entering the garage
27:22and relieving you.
27:23And then they counted the money
27:24and got $750
27:26and not a million.
27:27Let me remind you,
27:28an officer was recently convicted
27:29of third-degree official misconduct
27:31for taking $70 from a crime scene.
27:33These are from two years behind bars.
27:35What do you think would happen
27:36to a cop who steals
27:37a quarter million dollars?
27:38But we didn't take it.
27:39Maybe the assumption was wrong.
27:42Maybe it was always $750.
27:43That's not what the intel shows.
27:45The guys on the bar
27:45are saying it's a million.
27:46Okay, well,
27:47we can all vouch for each other.
27:49Not good enough.
27:50The only thing that will clear you
27:51is passing a polygraph.
27:52No, I can't by law
27:53make you take one.
27:55It would have to be
27:55strictly voluntary.
27:56What if we decline?
27:57There's grounds for suspension
27:58pending investigation
27:59and it possibly could lead
28:01to your termination.
28:03Well, that's not much
28:05of a choice, but...
28:07Yeah, we'll do it.
28:09Okay.
28:10Let's go.
28:11What now?
28:12Now.
28:13You think one of them
28:22really could have done it?
28:23Not by themselves.
28:24Nolan came back
28:25into the house
28:25to use a bathroom.
28:26One of the other two
28:27could have hidden
28:28some of the money then.
28:29Came back,
28:30picked it up later.
28:31There's no way
28:32Wes participated.
28:32That kid is squeaky clean.
28:34Well, if it was Jen,
28:35she wouldn't get caught like this.
28:36Sounds like a compliment.
28:37You know what?
28:37I'm just saying
28:38she's smarter than that.
28:39It doesn't matter
28:40if they did it or not.
28:41If they don't walk out of there
28:42with a flawless polygraph,
28:43they're done.
28:49What am I seeing?
28:50The pressure pad
28:51that registers
28:52if you attempt
28:54to try to cheat the polygraph
28:55by clenching your buttocks.
28:57Well, that can't be a real thing.
29:00You just clenched.
29:01Really?
29:03What am I doing now?
29:04Well, Mr. West,
29:06you seem uncomfortable.
29:09Is there something
29:09you'd like to get off your chest
29:10before we begin?
29:12Yes.
29:14I, um,
29:15I had a bite of creme brulee,
29:17okay?
29:17And yes, it was delicious.
29:19Like, I know it was wrong,
29:21but now that taste
29:22is in my mouth,
29:23that sweet flavor
29:24of corruption.
29:25It's just...
29:26But I want to let you guys know
29:28that I've learned my lesson
29:29and it will never happen again.
29:33Okay, let's...
29:34begin with a few
29:35controlled questions.
29:37Answer with a simple yes or no.
29:39Is your name Jonathan Nolan?
29:41Yes.
29:41Do you live at
29:427214 and a half
29:44Alvarado Street,
29:45Apartment F?
29:46For the moment.
29:47A simple yes or no, officer?
29:49Sorry.
29:49Um, yes.
29:50Are your eyes brown?
29:52Um, well,
29:53my mom always says
29:54they're more of a
29:55dark chestnut,
29:56but...
29:58Brown is fine.
30:00Did you witness
30:00anyone taking money?
30:02No.
30:02Were you ever alone
30:03with the money?
30:04Yes, sir.
30:05No.
30:05No, sir.
30:06No.
30:08Like, I'm sorry.
30:09These wires make me
30:10really nervous.
30:11I can't...
30:13Have you ever lied
30:14to protect another officer?
30:16No.
30:19Let's try that again.
30:21Have you ever lied
30:22to protect
30:23a fellow officer?
30:24Yes.
30:27Regarding the missing money?
30:29No, ma'am.
30:33Why didn't you tell them
30:34about creme brulee?
30:35I don't know.
30:35It came up naturally.
30:36There were yes or no questions.
30:38How does creme brulee
30:38come up naturally?
30:40Boots,
30:41you've all passed
30:42your polygraphs.
30:43But this is far from over.
30:45Go home.
30:46The detectives will contact you
30:47soon about follow-up interviews.
30:49You've got to find out
30:49what happened to that money
30:50before you hit the street again.
30:51Yes, ma'am.
30:52Hey,
30:55you know what I'd like to do
30:56after I've been suspected
30:57of a felony?
30:58A drink?
30:59Damn straight.
30:59I've got a stocked fridge.
31:00Anyone want to join?
31:01I'm down.
31:01Lucy?
31:02Yeah, it's early lunch
31:03and I should make use
31:04of the time off
31:05and go apartment tending.
31:06You okay?
31:08Why would I be?
31:13Hey.
31:15We all got cleared.
31:17You're cops.
31:17Are we supposed to be
31:18impressed you're not criminals?
31:20No, sir.
31:21Part of the job description, really.
31:22And you won't be cleared
31:23until the money's found.
31:25But we'll do our best
31:26to try and find it.
31:30Natalia's right.
31:32They don't catch
31:32who stole that money, cops?
31:33They think we did.
31:35No matter what the polygraph said,
31:36we'll never be trusted again.
31:38No, you're not wrong.
31:39So what do we do?
31:42Hey, Lucy.
31:43You're on with me and Jackson.
31:44You know,
31:45if they don't find the money,
31:46we're screwed.
31:47We were just talking about that.
31:49I keep going over it in my mind.
31:50The only thing I can think of
31:51is that money was gone
31:53long before we ever got
31:54to the garage.
31:56What the hell is this guy doing?
31:58What?
31:59As black as he'd be,
32:00he's riding my ass.
32:04He just hit me.
32:06It looks like he's trying
32:06to run me off the road.
32:08Where are you?
32:09I'm driving south
32:10on Griffith Park Drive.
32:11I just passed
32:11Mineral Wells Trail.
32:19Lucy?
32:39Bishop?
32:40Lucy's in trouble.
32:41Someone tried to drive
32:42her off the road.
32:43Griffith Park Drive.
32:44Jackson and I
32:44are on our way there now.
32:54Okay.
32:55It's to your left.
32:56Clear.
33:19Phone's in the car.
33:22Officer needs help.
33:23Requesting backup
33:23and airship.
33:24Vans clear.
33:25Griffith Park Drive.
33:26Be advised,
33:26plainclothes officers
33:27in pursuit
33:28heading northwest
33:29into the woods.
33:29Seven out of 19.
33:31We're five minutes out.
33:31Hold until we get there.
33:32Which way?
33:50I don't know.
33:54You seeing that?
33:55Yeah.
33:56That way.
34:02You sure?
34:02No.
34:03No.
34:21Drop the gun.
34:21What do you want?
34:28The money you stole.
34:33You're with Laoma?
34:35You're with the LAPD.
34:36Officer Lucy Chen.
34:38Lives at 72-14-and-a-half Alvarado Street.
34:41Apartment F.
34:42How do you know all that?
34:43Public records.
34:44Addresses.
34:45Police reports.
34:46Damn near everything's on the net.
34:48So I already know
34:49that you were guarding our money
34:50and 250 G's went missing.
34:53And I know you're the cop
34:54that took it.
34:54I...
34:55I didn't steal anything.
34:57Oh, please.
34:58We've seen your place.
35:00Ran your credit.
35:01We need a serious cash infusion.
35:04So,
35:05where's
35:06our
35:06money?
35:07I already told you.
35:09I don't have it.
35:11Tough girl, huh?
35:12Well, everybody's tough at first.
35:14Until they're not.
35:16Andres.
35:18Cut her up a little.
35:27This isn't about the money, chica.
35:29A quarter million is a rounding error
35:31on our gas budget.
35:32This is about sending a message.
35:34You can't steal from us.
35:36Even if you carry a badge.
35:40I saw you.
35:42What?
35:42Outside the house
35:43right before we raided it.
35:45You were wearing those boots
35:46and carrying that duffel bag
35:47with the red stripe.
35:48Somebody tipped you off
35:50about the raid.
35:51You took the money.
35:53You got in before we hit the place.
35:54You thought no one would notice.
36:03Shots fired northwest
36:04from our previous.
36:06Damn it.
36:07Ah!
36:12You messed it all up.
36:21Hey!
36:23Police!
36:24Don't move!
36:30Do not move!
36:32Stay on the ground!
36:33Stay on the ground!
36:36You got this?
36:36Yeah.
36:37I'm going after Lucy.
36:51Nice.
36:51Do you have cuffs?
36:52Yeah.
36:53That's perfect.
36:56What took you so long?
36:57Paramedics has taken our other suspects
37:04to Shaw Memorial.
37:06Homicide's working the alcohol
37:07and this one killed.
37:08And the missing 250,000?
37:09Einstein here,
37:10it's stacked on his coffee table.
37:11Wes and Lopez are bringing it in now.
37:13All right, good work.
37:16And how are you doing?
37:17Oh, good.
37:19I think I might have twisted my ankle.
37:20I met Officer Chen, Nolan.
37:23That was good work out there.
37:24Thank you, sir.
37:25I'm just relieved that we found the missing money.
37:27So I dig it we're off the hook about the cash.
37:30You are.
37:31But to be clear,
37:33at no point did anyone actually believe
37:34that three rookies
37:35knew how to smuggle
37:36a quarter million cash
37:38out of a crime scene.
37:39But good work.
37:47Hey.
37:48Hey.
37:49Um, look,
37:50in case I haven't said this enough,
37:53I, uh,
37:54I've been trying to be a cop
37:55my whole life.
37:56I walked in here thinking
37:57I knew everything about everything
37:59and I can only imagine
38:01how annoying that's been.
38:02I want to call it annoying,
38:03I call it.
38:04Yeah, no,
38:05annoying's about right.
38:07Well,
38:07I'm sorry.
38:09You're my T.O.,
38:10not my dad.
38:11I should let you teach me
38:13how to be a cop,
38:14even if some of your methods
38:15contradict the things
38:16that he showed me.
38:16But,
38:18look,
38:18I just hope that you'll understand
38:19if I get to take a moment
38:21to adjust.
38:22I guess I can give you that.
38:25And thanks for not giving up on me.
38:27I wouldn't be here without you,
38:29and
38:29I'll never forget that again.
38:33Good time?
38:41Of course.
38:42Come in, Captain.
38:43Let's see how you were doing.
38:46All-you-can-eat pudding.
38:48The only highlight
38:48of being in a hospital.
38:51You want one?
38:52Oh, no, no.
38:53You enjoy.
38:55Hey, uh,
38:56I thought you'd like to know.
38:58We recovered
38:58the missing quarter million.
39:01Wow.
39:03That's really good news.
39:04Turns out it was gone
39:05before we even showed up.
39:07Gang member Franco DeSantis
39:08took it just before our raid.
39:10He pulled his cell records.
39:12Turns out there was
39:12an incoming call
39:13just before he grabbed the cash
39:14and walked it out the door.
39:16Do you know
39:17where that call came from?
39:18Mm-mm.
39:20I have no idea.
39:22The station.
39:26Ha.
39:28And you'd think
39:29I-I-I made it.
39:31Oh, I know you did.
39:32You see,
39:33Franco
39:34admitted as much.
39:38Don't.
39:40You should enjoy
39:41your pudding.
39:43The stuff they give you
39:44in prison,
39:44not nearly as good.
39:46Oh, no.
39:54Hey.
39:55Come in, come in, come in.
39:57So?
39:59This is my new place.
40:00It's great, right?
40:02Oh.
40:03Uh,
40:03there's a giant bloodstain
40:05on the rock.
40:05Which is how I'm getting
40:0625% off for the first year.
40:10Are you sure
40:10that's not because
40:11you're a cop?
40:11Yeah.
40:12He didn't even know
40:13before he cut me the break.
40:14Landlord was super eager
40:16to get it all done.
40:17Especially because
40:18I said I would take it
40:18as is.
40:19As is?
40:21You mean that-
40:22Oh, yeah.
40:23Which is why
40:24you're here.
40:26You see,
40:27friends
40:27help friends
40:30clean up crime scenes.
40:34We'll get poke after.
40:36Okay.
40:38So,
40:40what should we drink to?
40:43To paying your own way.
40:45That's strangely specific.
40:47Listen,
40:47I really
40:48appreciate everything
40:49you've done for me.
40:50You really
40:51helped me get back
40:52on my feet.
40:53But I'm back on them now.
40:54And
40:54I can't just keep
40:56living here for free.
40:58I don't need you
40:58to pay rent.
40:59I need me
40:59to pay rent.
41:00So,
41:01what would you list
41:02this place for?
41:03Oh,
41:04I don't know.
41:05Twelve.
41:07Maybe eleven?
41:08How about
41:09we'll just call
41:09ten thousand even?
41:10A month?
41:11I can't.
41:11I can't.
41:12I'll point that.
41:13I'll tell you what.
41:14Why don't you pay
41:15what you can afford?
41:17I'm going to call it even.
41:19Deal.
41:24And I have to tell you,
41:25oh my God,
41:26that's good.
41:27But I have to be clear.
41:30As a cop,
41:31I
41:31can't do you
41:32any favors.
41:33I can't
41:34fix a ticket.
41:35for you.
41:35I can't help you
41:36out of any
41:37legal jeopardy.
41:38I just
41:38hope you understand.
41:41Totally.
41:42And you know what?
41:42I would never
41:43come to you
41:44for anything like that.
41:45Okay?
41:46I'm super tight
41:47with the district attorney.
41:48That's not better.
41:49So,
41:51this rent
41:51that you're
41:52going to be paying,
41:53is it retroactive
41:55from when you
41:55moved in?
41:56Um,
41:58yes.
41:58That's great.
41:59That's great.
42:33Damn it!
