FunTranscript
00:00Hey.
00:10Hi, so here's what I'm thinking. It's April Fool's Day, which means nothing counts, right?
00:15April Fool's is tomorrow.
00:16It's 12.01. And if we play our cards right, we can use April Fool's Day as a hall pass.
00:21We're not actually together, but we can pretend we're together as an April Fool's Day prank, just for today.
00:27And if anybody raises a flag, we'll say, surprise, it's an April Fool's joke, and everyone will laugh, and we can...
00:34Uh-huh.
00:36Okay, wow. I've clearly been doing April Fool's wrong my whole life, so we're not actually together, but we're making out a secret like we are together, so what's the prank?
00:44Do you want to talk about April Fool's Day, or do you want to take your pants off?
00:47Oh, you get my email?
01:01You mean the one with the subject Ben Dover case? Yeah, not the most original April Fool's joke.
01:04It's not a joke. Dover's a real defendant who demanded a speedy trial nine days ago. Peters was handling it until he landed in the hospital with a severe case of food poisoning.
01:12So you're telling me that I have to go to trial tomorrow for a murder case I've never heard of because Ron Peters ate bad paella?
01:17Uh-huh.
01:18That's not an April Fool's joke?
01:19Uh-huh.
01:20I hate you.
01:21I know, but this will pass, and then we'll go back to being besties.
01:23Uh, my wife's my bestie.
01:25Ugh, boring.
01:27Officer Nolan.
01:32Yeah.
01:33I'm your new rookie, Connor Craig.
01:35Oh, ha, nice try. Yeah, I don't, uh, I don't fall for April Fool's prank.
01:39Uh, no, sir, no, it's, it's not a prank.
01:42I, I just transferred over from West Valley. I've been training with, uh, Sergeant McAdams the last whole month.
01:46Oh, yeah, that's a good story. I would have gone with six months because nobody transfers divisions with one month left in their probation,
01:53and you should have picked a different TO. McAdams is a department legend that makes your prank easily disprovable.
02:00Yes, sir.
02:01All valid points if I were joking.
02:06Which I'm not.
02:08He's not joking.
02:09The last-minute transfer, and I forgot to tell you, my bad.
02:12Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.
02:16Do I seem like a fan of tomfoolery, I'll see you.
02:18No, sir, but that could all be part of your master plan.
02:21A five-year-long con to make me believe that you're not into pulling pranks, just to bring this on me now,
02:26which seems less and less likely now that I explain it.
02:28Exactly.
02:30Rather than looking to get for what's in the mouth, you should be doing backflips.
02:34Craig's record is exemplary and spotless.
02:37All you have to do is not screw up for the next 30 days, and you will be credited for turning out a second top-notch rookie.
02:44Yes, sir.
02:45So don't screw up.
02:46He said that already.
02:48How exactly are we pulling this prank off?
02:57Exactly like this, just sitting a little closer than we normally are.
03:03Hey.
03:04There's no chance Gray is pranking me with this rookie, is there?
03:08No.
03:09No, Gray hates pranks as much as I hate.
03:12Mediocrity.
03:13Subtitles.
03:14The designated hitter.
03:16Reasons.
03:17Are you implying I'm a hateful person?
03:18Yes.
03:19All right.
03:20Today is April Fool's Day, by far the most annoying day of the year.
03:25So with Officer Penn out for trial prep, Sergeant Bradford will be your go-to supervisor for the day.
03:32And for the news, Officer Nolan has a new rookie.
03:36Stand up, state your name and badge number.
03:39Officer Connor Craig, badge number 382610.
03:42Officer Craig trained under legendary Sergeant McAdams and earned top marks.
03:48But as we know, training isn't over until it's over.
03:51All right.
03:52Let's get to it.
03:53Be safe out there.
03:58I'm sorry.
03:59I'm nervous.
04:00My last CO didn't really let me drive much.
04:02But it's a required element of your training.
04:04Right.
04:05He did enough to evaluate me, but driving was his domain.
04:08Okay.
04:09Well, he was a legend, so I guess I'll defer to his judgment.
04:13But I still have to evaluate you fully.
04:15Of course.
04:16All right.
04:17Let's start with traffic stop procedures.
04:18Head north on La Brea.
04:20Closer we get to sunset, the more likely we are to find someone driving like a fool.
04:24Cool.
04:25That's right.
04:26No.
04:27North left.
04:29Okay.
04:30I think I am seeing why McAdams didn't want you driving.
04:33Sorry.
04:38What?
04:39Nothing.
04:45What?
04:46Nothing.
04:47It's just, uh, you're glowing.
04:49I'm what?
04:50Your aura.
04:51It's...
04:52You had sex.
04:55I did not.
04:56I did not!
04:59I am feeling kind of sparkly today though, so thank you.
05:02Okay.
05:03What?
05:04Nothing.
05:05It's just...
05:06I noticed your hand touched teams at roll call.
05:07Is that how you think sex works?
05:08Uh-huh.
05:09No, but seriously, I mean, you can trust me with your secret.
05:10We're gloomies.
05:11No, I...
05:12I know.
05:13I know that.
05:14But seriously, nothing...
05:15Nothing is going on.
05:16Okay.
05:17Okay.
05:18That's what they said.
05:19I don't get it.
05:20I know.
05:21I'm sorry, but I can't do that.
05:22What's going on?
05:23Apparently, our social media intern posted that it was parking ticket amnesty day.
05:28Just bring in your ticket and all will be forgiven.
05:30We have a social media intern?
05:31Not for long, because I'm going to kill her.
05:32Okay.
05:33Everybody, listen up.
05:34If you are here because of the amnesty post, it's an April Fool's joke.
05:36Okay?
05:37You still have to pay your tickets.
05:38Now, the good news is, you're in the right place to get that done.
05:40Really?
05:41Okay.
05:42Okay.
05:43Okay.
05:44Okay.
05:45Okay.
05:46Okay.
05:47Okay.
05:48Okay.
05:49Okay.
05:50Okay.
05:51Okay.
05:52Okay.
05:53Okay.
05:54Okay.
05:55Okay.
05:56Okay.
05:57Okay.
05:58Okay.
05:59Okay.
06:00Okay.
06:01Thanks, but a whole new line is going to start up again as long as that post is up.
06:15Are you the social media intern?
06:17If you're looking for help setting up a TikTok account, it's not my job.
06:20Definitely not.
06:21Look, social media is the worst of us.
06:23I'm here because you posted that it was parking ticket amnesty day on the LAPD account.
06:27Fire, right?
06:28No, not fire unless it's the kind you have to put out.
06:31Who approved this?
06:32Mmm.
06:33Captain gave me a long leash to increase our social following, ergo.
06:36Ergo.
06:37You made a promise we can't keep.
06:39Look, once parking tickets are issued, they're in the system.
06:41They can't legally be waived, which means you pissed off a bunch of people who are taking
06:44it out on us.
06:45Okay.
06:46Can I offer a suggestion?
06:47No.
06:48Your whole vibe needs work.
06:49Yeah.
06:50There's like an art to giving criticism.
06:51I like to start with a compliment, then gently deliver the note, and then end it with a compliment.
06:54Like a little feel good sandwich.
06:56Delete the tweet.
06:57Now.
06:58Oh, no.
06:59No, no, no, no, no.
07:00A dirty delete will get us canceled.
07:01But I can't issue an apology statement with something cute.
07:05Fine.
07:06Get on it.
07:07Can't put an email.
07:08My God.
07:11Joe.
07:12Hey.
07:13Wesley.
07:14I heard you're taking over the Bendover case.
07:15Literally fell into my lap.
07:16I'm just trying to get up to speed, but I would love a continuance.
07:19Oh, I'm sure you would, but there's not a chance in hell.
07:21See, my client has a right to a speedy trial, and if you can't provide that, then you're violating
07:25his rights, and the judge will dismiss the case.
07:27Oh, right.
07:28You're smiling because you smell blood in the water, because I only have the rest of the day
07:31to make sure your client doesn't walk.
07:32100%.
07:33Mm-hmm.
07:34See, being a public defender is a thankless, bad-paying job, with few wins against a DA's
07:39office that punishes the poor and loves to rub my nose in the mud at every turn.
07:43See, your distress is a rare moment of karmic joy that I would have brought popcorn for,
07:49had I known in advance.
07:50Mm-hmm.
07:51But, uh, hey, you want to cut your losses and save the rest of your day, then drop the
07:56charges.
07:57I can't.
07:58It's murder.
07:59There's an eyewitness.
08:00What about a plea deal?
08:01Nope.
08:02And adamant to have his day in court.
08:03Okay.
08:04It's either bright and early.
08:05I've definitely been bringing popcorn.
08:09Angela!
08:10Hey!
08:11I need to ask you a favor.
08:12All right.
08:13Oh, I have...
08:14I seem to drop my pen.
08:15Sorry.
08:16One sec.
08:17I love her.
08:18Hey, you called for backup?
08:19No.
08:20Witnesses.
08:21Oh, shit.
08:22You are definitely being pumped.
08:23Right?
08:24There is no way this is a rookie with 12 months of training.
08:26Maybe he's just nervous about impressing you.
08:27You know, not first time training with a new deal.
08:28You are?
08:29Easy as pie.
08:30Okay.
08:31Well, this is, this is all wrong.
08:32Oh, yeah.
08:33You made that ticket out to yourself.
08:34Oh, yeah.
08:35You made that ticket out to yourself.
08:36Oh, shoot.
08:37Uh...
08:38I'm sorry.
08:39I'm a little rusty.
08:40My last deal wasn't into traffic enforcement.
08:41My bad.
08:42Not nerves.
08:43Good luck.
08:44But you were gonna...
08:45You were gonna...
08:46Where are you going?
08:47Oh, right.
08:48Sorry.
08:49Old habits die hard.
08:507 Adam 15.
08:51I have a 415 family.
08:52315.
08:53315.
08:54315.
08:55I'm sorry.
08:56Ah...
08:57Is this a pot?
08:58I could pick it up.
08:59Okay, well, this is...
09:00This is all wrong.
09:01Oh, yeah.
09:02You made that ticket out to yourself.
09:04Oh, shoot.
09:05Uh...
09:06I'm sorry.
09:07I'm a little rusty.
09:08My last T.O. wasn't into traffic enforcement.
09:09My bad.
09:10Not nerves.
09:11Good luck.
09:12You were gonna...
09:135 Family, 3107 Avon Street.
09:16Male and female in a verbal detail to your box.
09:187-Map 15, show us something.
09:22Okay, tell me you've handled domestic disputes before.
09:26I've handled domestic disputes before.
09:27Okay.
09:29But for reals, I haven't.
09:31Then why would you tell me?
09:32Well, you told me to tell you.
09:34But I'm excited to experience my first with you.
09:38What do I need to know?
09:39Okay.
09:40Cops like to use acronyms.
09:42To remember things.
09:43And today, you're going to learn the gambit.
09:45The G-M-B-I-T of domestic disputes.
09:56It's always a good idea just to stand to the side.
09:58Just in case of potential incoming gunfire.
10:00You think he's got a shootout?
10:01No.
10:02But you should do things the right way every time.
10:04That way, the moves become automatic.
10:06Knock on the door.
10:07Police! Open up!
10:08What do you want?
10:13Wait.
10:14Did you call in?
10:15No.
10:16No, baby, I would never.
10:19Uh, sir, we received multiple calls about a disturbance.
10:22We just wanted to make sure that everything was all right.
10:24We're fine.
10:25And you're not coming in my house without a warrant.
10:27Now, the first step in gambit is G.
10:30Get inside.
10:31Now, explain to the gentleman we don't need a warrant to investigate domestic violence
10:35and that we hate to disturb him, but by law, we can't leave until we resolve this.
10:41And what if he slams the door on us?
10:42Well, then we would have to destroy the door and probably arrest him.
10:49You got two minutes.
10:56You two look so familiar.
10:58Have we met?
10:59I'm a friend of James Murray and his wife, Nyla.
11:02Teddy and I were at that fundraising gala last month.
11:04That's right.
11:05Children of the fallen.
11:06And you had a drunken altercation with Sergeant Bradford.
11:09All right, now we are in the house.
11:13Step two is M.
11:14Make it safe.
11:14Do you see anything unsafe?
11:19You know, someone, not you, Teddy, might use that bottle as a weapon,
11:25which would mean we would have to use force, so let's not have that.
11:34I am so sorry.
11:35He just lost his job, and it's been a really tough week.
11:38That foot of mouth, you don't have to tell everybody all our business all the time.
11:41Which brings us to B, as in, be observant so that we can, I, investigate.
11:47Teddy has clearly had too much to drink.
11:49Anita is upset.
11:50Why don't you go talk to her and figure out what happened?
11:54No.
11:55Just go talk to her alone.
11:57Walk behind me.
11:59Stay where I can see you.
12:00Hey, don't say nothing about nothing.
12:06Cops trying to jam me up in my own house.
12:08You're new, huh?
12:10Let's talk about you.
12:11What's going on?
12:12We're here to help.
12:13He just gets drunk, then mad at the world.
12:17Everybody else did him wrong, and nothing is his fault.
12:19He's, he's never hit me, but he scares me, and I am so tired of being scared.
12:27Well, look, we can take care of him today, but if this continues, you can, you can always
12:32call us.
12:33We also have resources to help you if you decide when you want to get away from him.
12:39Yeah.
12:39Which brings us to T for take appropriate action.
12:43What do we have, Officer Craig?
12:45Negative two, seven, three, five, but she wants him to leave.
12:48She's afraid.
12:48Well, she's just going to have to be afraid, then.
12:51It's not a crime to tie one on in my own house.
12:54I know my rights.
12:55We are simply concerned that you are a danger to yourself or to others, so you're going
13:01to have to come with us.
13:02No criminal charges, just to see a nurse so you can sober up and cool down alone.
13:07Officer Craig, search Teddy for weapons and escort him to the shop.
13:11Hey, don't touch me.
13:13I'll pay your salary.
13:16That changes the taking action part of it.
13:21Now, there will be criminal charges.
13:24And that is the gambit of handling a domestic disturbance.
13:27Nah.
13:30I don't understand.
13:31On paper, the kid's a rock star trainee.
13:34All his daily observation reports are signed off.
13:37Craig's checklist is practically complete.
13:39Yes, sir.
13:40And yet there are significant holes in his training.
13:43His officer's safety and his perception of danger are nonexistent.
13:47He struggles with a basic traffic citation.
13:50I find that hard to believe.
13:51McAdams is a highly respected FTO.
13:54I know, but I am telling you, sir, there is no way Officer Craig is going to be ready in a month.
13:58Hell, he...
13:59He may not even make it to the end of the day.
14:03So what do you want me to do?
14:06It's ultimately your call, but I would think carefully before bouncing him.
14:10You trained a stellar first rookie.
14:12But if you're handed an LAPD Legends trainee and he fails in a week, the captain might think the problem is you.
14:21Understood.
14:23And you're sure this isn't a prank?
14:26No, I'm sorry.
14:28But if it was...
14:30I'm on it.
14:34Why are we here?
14:35Instead of the Bendover lead investigator.
14:38I left two messages for Detective Berman that he has not returned, and I do not have time to wait.
14:42I have to decide by tonight whether I am going to trial or dropping charges.
14:44But as a thank you, I'm ordering lunch in from Republik.
14:47Oh, well, you should have led with that.
14:48As you can see from the file, our victim, Frank Horbolt, was killed in the parking garage of his office building.
14:53Now, the eyewitness, a maintenance worker, claims to have seen Bendover following Horbolt out of the elevator and returning alone five minutes later and dropping something into a garbage can.
15:02The police later found the murder weapon in that same trash can.
15:05Is there a relationship between Dover and the victim?
15:08No, they work in the same building, but no direct contact.
15:11So your whole case basically rests on the believability of your witness?
15:14Yep.
15:15She's in there waiting to talk to us.
15:17Come on.
15:20Hey.
15:23Um, I, I was told that I wouldn't have to testify.
15:29Told by who?
15:30Detective Berman.
15:31He said that, um, the killer would take a plea deal.
15:33No sweat.
15:34Why are you nervous about testifying?
15:36I'm not.
15:37I'm just, Berman said that...
15:39Okay, forget about what Berman said.
15:40Let's talk about your testimony.
15:41You said that you saw Bendover follow Frank Horbolt into the garage.
15:46There were a few minutes between them, but Berman said that...
15:49Hold on.
15:50Did Detective Berman coach you on what to say in your testimony?
15:53No.
15:54No, no.
15:55It's just he, um, the fine coach.
15:59Okay.
16:00You know what?
16:00Just, um, let's give us a couple minutes.
16:07You should drop the case.
16:09She'll get killed in a cross-examination.
16:10Okay, but is she lying or did Berman just shape her testimony to be more definitive?
16:14Neither is good.
16:16Will you talk to Berman?
16:18Forget it.
16:19Look, if I do it, he's going to shut down, and I don't have time to pressure him.
16:21I have to make a decision in a couple hours.
16:23I need to know if this case is winnable.
16:25We'll do it for a price.
16:27A spa weekend for me and my partner.
16:29And when you say my partner, you mean my wife.
16:32Unless she thinks that we should give her husband a freebie.
16:35Oh, hell no.
16:36Two-bedroom suite at Malibu Beach Resort while the men watch the children.
16:40I don't understand.
16:50Am I in trouble?
16:51No, I just need to speak to your old training officer about some deficits in your training.
16:55Hi.
16:56I'm looking for Sergeant McAdams.
16:57His station says he's here taking some statements.
16:59He's in the ER.
17:00I memorized the Rook book.
17:01Go ahead.
17:02Ask me anything.
17:03Yeah, it's not about the rule book.
17:04It's about a failure to translate words into actions.
17:10There he is.
17:12All right.
17:12Just stay here.
17:13Okay?
17:14Say hi for me.
17:15All right.
17:19Sergeant McAdams.
17:21Yeah?
17:21John Nolan from the Mid-Wilshire Station.
17:24Okay.
17:24I was hoping to ask you a few questions about your old rookie, Connor Craig.
17:28He was new to you.
17:29Oh, yeah.
17:30And I've noticed some gaps in his training.
17:34You heard it cause trouble?
17:35No, sir.
17:36No, I'm just...
17:37I'm looking for some clarity.
17:38I mean, you are a legend in the department, and this kid spent a year with you, but he
17:43has no practical understanding of the job.
17:53Look, I was supposed to retire last year.
17:56Stayed on as a favorite of my captain.
17:57Craig shows up.
17:58He's got no instincts, no fire, no command presence.
18:01Why not just bounce on him?
18:02And go out on a loser?
18:03Finish my career on a fail?
18:05No way.
18:06So I carried him.
18:07Only took low-impact calls.
18:09I got the seniority to pull it off, so...
18:11Only you did chicken out in the end.
18:13You forced the transfer so that you wouldn't be the one who put an untrained cop onto the street.
18:19You got no right to judge me.
18:21Actually, I do.
18:23Because I'm the cop who could have been killed today on a domestic.
18:26Because the kid you sent me doesn't know enough to have my back.
18:29Did you say hi back?
18:41Are you going to bounce me?
18:43Honestly, I should.
18:46Instead, I'm going to give you the rest of the day to prove that you are worth the risk.
18:49Do not make me regret it.
18:51Knock it off!
19:04It isn't right.
19:05You have to let us go.
19:07What's going on?
19:07He's not honoring our get-out-of-jail-free cards.
19:10That's not a thing.
19:11Then why is it on the LAPD's social media account?
19:15What?
19:15What the hell were you thinking?
19:31Raising your voice in the workplace is a sign of weakness, not strength.
19:34You posted get-out-of-jail-free cards.
19:36Oh, I couldn't just delete the parking ticket tweet.
19:38I mean, that screamed scandal.
19:39So, I retracted it with something that is clearly a joke.
19:42Not to the growing number of criminals and holding demanding we release them.
19:46This is not funny.
19:47No, how dumb people are is always funny.
19:49It's clear on the post it's an April Fool's joke.
19:51See, it says April Fool's.
19:53This is not redeemable.
19:54In tiny print no one can read.
19:56Okay, Boomer.
19:57Go find your glasses.
19:58I'm sorry, Boomer?
19:59This is not my fault.
20:00Those Delulus didn't even scan the QR code.
20:02If they had, they would have seen this.
20:06Okay, you know what?
20:07Your reckless behavior has cost us department time and resources.
20:10And the fact that you keep making excuses lets me know that you don't see why that's a problem.
20:13You're fired.
20:14You can't fire me.
20:15I'm a civilian employee.
20:16You're right.
20:17You've been fired by the Office of Support Services.
20:19And they were happy to let me be the one to tell you.
20:21So, pack up your stuff and be grateful you're not leaving this room in handcuffs.
20:26You don't have to be so mean about it.
20:27You guys sign up?
20:31Hey!
20:32What the hell are you guys up to?
20:34Let me guess.
20:35You must be Berman.
20:36Oh, like you don't know.
20:37Look, we get why you're not happy.
20:39But the DA's office had us assigned to this case when they couldn't get into contact with you.
20:42Yeah, well, that's not how things work and you know it.
20:44What, do you think I don't know who your husband is?
20:46Okay, why don't you just take a deep breath before you say something you're gonna regret?
20:50Why don't you go screw yourself?
20:51Okay, that's enough of that.
20:53We didn't set out to jam you up, but we've been inside your case for five minutes and it's a hot mess.
20:58So, we're gonna go inside and talk to the victim's widow and try to get some clarity.
21:03We were gonna invite you, but now you can go screw yourself.
21:08Is the widow really inside waiting to talk to us?
21:10No, I just wanted to see his face when I said it and he looked panicked.
21:14The question is why?
21:21I'm sorry, okay?
21:23It took longer than I thought to get you bailed out.
21:25I would have never been in there in the first place if you hadn't sold me out.
21:28Baby, please, I didn't sell you out.
21:30I just...
21:31Sometimes you can get a little scary.
21:34Get over it.
21:36You are so weak.
21:39Give me the damn keys.
21:43Today.
21:48She bailed him out.
21:49How many times do I have to tell you about this damn seat?
21:52Why would she do that?
21:53People in abusive relationships often do things that are against their best interests.
21:58He looks more angry than when we arrested him.
22:01What should we do?
22:02You gave her that card for victim resources, right?
22:05You told her she could call them or us at any point?
22:08Yeah.
22:08Yeah, I even circled the one Sergeant McAdams said we're the best.
22:12Best we can hope for is that she uses one of them.
22:16People are gonna make their own choices.
22:17Because we're here for when they make bad ones.
22:30Wow.
22:30We never even did this when we were actually together.
22:33Well, that's because we didn't have a deadline.
22:34Okay.
22:34Well, midnight, right?
22:36Yes, please.
22:37Do you think it's been long enough?
22:38I mean, I think a little longer.
22:45We should really get back to work and do things.
22:49Things?
22:50Yes, things like crime.
22:51We need to stop crime.
22:52Okay.
22:53Do you insist?
22:53I do.
22:54I do insist.
22:56It's your shirt.
22:56Hi.
23:00Hi.
23:01Hey.
23:03Uh, we should get back out there.
23:04Yeah.
23:05I mean, unless you and Tim need to discuss something in private.
23:08No.
23:08I think we covered everything.
23:09Yeah.
23:10Okay.
23:11Ladies.
23:11Uh-oh.
23:16What?
23:18A social media intern I just fired posted this.
23:21City of Los Angeles.
23:22For the next three hours, all crime is legal.
23:24Go nuts and don't call us.
23:26Peace sign.
23:26Emoji wearing sunglasses.
23:27Peace sign.
23:31Here we go.
23:33Libby posted the purge alerts across all social media platforms before changing the passwords.
23:37And we can't take them down until IT hacks into the account.
23:39But you can take hours.
23:40I mean, people have to know this is a joke.
23:42Most people will see it that way, but there are plenty that won't.
23:45911's already getting swapped with calls.
23:47Looting, robberies, and a host of assaults.
23:49All right.
23:50We're on citywide tactical alert with mandatory holdover until further notice.
23:55In progress, crime against persons are priority one.
23:59Refer all property crimes to online reporting.
24:0210-7 reporting will be held until end of shift.
24:05How bad is this going to be?
24:06Pretty bad.
24:07The police told me I could do it on the internet.
24:09It's not going to stand up in court.
24:10But there will be lawsuits, especially from the crime victims who claim that their injuries were caused by the LAPD posting this.
24:16Bottom line is this.
24:17Make sure your arrests have all the criminal elements, your evidence is solid, and your reports are spotless.
24:22Okay.
24:23Everyone's 10-8.
24:24Be safe out there.
24:24I'm going to leave you here at the station.
24:30What?
24:31No.
24:31Officer Craig, you remain a wild card with serious officer safety issues.
24:37I can't go face whatever craziness is about to jump off while I have to be worried about you.
24:43With all due respect, sir, that's your job as a training officer.
24:47I didn't realize that I wasn't being fully trained before, and that's on me.
24:50But you said we'd spend the rest of the shift evaluating me, and what better way to do that than when the pressure's on?
24:55Otherwise, you're no better than McAdams.
24:59I'm sorry.
25:00That last part was way over the line, but I stand by the rest.
25:03All right, you're in.
25:10I won't let you down.
25:11It's not me I'd be worried about.
25:13My wife is a ninja warrior assassin.
25:15If she ends up a widow because of you, there won't be enough left of you to fit into a bucket.
25:19Not a joke.
25:20Get out of here!
25:21You must be going 90 miles an hour.
25:41Should we go after?
25:42Negative.
25:42Gray wants us focused on crimes against persons.
25:45We can get his license plate from the dash cam later.
25:47715 multiple callers report shots fired in the alley.
25:503100 block Avon Street.
25:52Possible 1054 lane by the vehicle.
25:54Adam 15.
25:55That's right.
25:577 out of 15 copies.
25:58Go 3.
26:00Avon Street.
26:01Does that sound familiar to you?
26:03Yeah.
26:04Teddy and Anita live on Avon Street.
26:13Someone broke all the streetlights.
26:20Is it a drive-by?
26:40Robbery, maybe?
26:42Oh, they would have stolen his watch.
26:43Did Anita do this?
26:47We've got to find her.
26:49I'm going to go check the house.
26:51You stay here with the crime scene.
26:52Get crime scene tape block off that end of the alley.
26:54Use our shop to block off the other end.
26:56Get the good camera from the evidence kit.
26:57Take a picture of everything, even if it doesn't look important.
27:05You got this.
27:06Anita, LAPD.
27:14Anita, please come to the door.
27:16Hello?
27:18Hi.
27:19What's going on?
27:20Anita, LAPD.
27:21I'm Officer Nolan.
27:22You remember me?
27:23Do you know where Teddy is?
27:25No.
27:25He dropped me off, then went out.
27:28Probably to a bar.
27:29But he's supposed to be back by now.
27:34He didn't call.
27:36Have you been drinking?
27:37I had some bourbon.
27:38It's been a long day.
27:39I got scared.
27:41I'm always scared.
27:42The blues helped me relax.
27:44But now I'm getting worried about Teddy.
27:46Is everything okay?
27:48No.
27:50No, I'm afraid it's not.
27:51I'm going to need you to come with me.
27:56Come on.
27:57Okay, um, just hold up right here.
28:02All right, just sit tight, and I'll go get you a blanket.
28:06Yeah, but where's my husband?
28:07You still haven't told me what's going on.
28:09Just sit and hold tight.
28:12Hey, you're not going to believe this.
28:14You turned the shopper off.
28:15Yeah, you want to know why?
28:17The victim's driver's seat.
28:18And an empty glass, but mostly the driver's seat.
28:20What about it?
28:21Well, it was moved all the way forward.
28:23And Teddy's a giant.
28:24We saw him move in the seat back at the station,
28:25which means whoever put the car into position was short.
28:28Like Anita Short.
28:29She staged it.
28:31Nice work.
28:32Let's hope for you again.
28:33And if she's a suspect, that means the house is also a crime scene,
28:36so I turned the car around in case you wanted to put her inside
28:38so she wouldn't have to see her husband.
28:39Right.
28:39The body.
28:40Right.
28:40I mean, the victim.
28:41I mean, Teddy.
28:42I'm impressed.
28:44What about the glass?
28:45Sitting on the ledge.
28:46It's got traces of bourbon in it.
28:47I took pictures.
28:48You didn't bang for evidence?
28:49No, I wasn't sure if you wanted to.
28:51Should we be worried?
28:57Yes.
28:58Oh, my God.
29:00V.Q. Teddy.
29:01Anita, I need you to get into the shop.
29:03That's for your safety, okay?
29:05Hey, officers.
29:07Ain't y'all supposed to be in hiding?
29:09Tonight's our night.
29:10We're taking that car.
29:11You can't have it, son.
29:13This is a crime scene.
29:15That car is evidence.
29:17Whole city a crime scene.
29:18What you gonna do?
29:19Shoot us?
29:20Let them have the car.
29:22You have to protect me.
29:24Get into the shop.
29:28Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
29:30Let her go.
29:30We'll catch up with her later.
29:31We need to protect the suit.
29:32But she's a killer.
29:33And if we don't have any evidence,
29:34she could get away with it.
29:40Oh, my God.
29:41Oh, my God.
29:42Oh, my God.
29:42Oh, my God.
29:43Oh, my God.
29:43Oh, my God.
29:44Oh, my God.
29:44Oh, my God.
29:45Oh, my God.
29:46Oh, my God.
29:47Oh, my God.
29:48Oh, my God.
29:48Easy.
29:49Easy, officer.
29:50Hold your nerve.
29:51Do you see any weapons?
29:54Now, get your baton out.
29:56We don't see weapons.
29:57We don't use deadly force.
29:59Control, 7 Adam 15.
30:00I'm being advanced on by a crowd.
30:02I can do some backup.
30:03Go, 3.
30:04Adam 15, no units.
30:0510A.
30:06CHP en route.
30:08ETA 12 minutes.
30:10Sounds like you're on your own, boys.
30:12I'm gonna give you a chance to get out of here.
30:15Leave us the vehicle.
30:15No, I'm gonna make you the same offer.
30:20Last chance to run away.
30:22Anyone starts trouble, they wake up in the hospital.
30:33You really gonna fight all these guys?
30:35You got lost.
30:36You're gonna grab that glass, and you're gonna run.
30:38We're gonna circle back here to the shop after they've gone.
30:41You ready?
30:42On three.
30:44One, two, three.
30:45Grab her.
31:08It's Libby.
31:09I need help.
31:10So does half of Los Angeles because of you.
31:12Call 911.
31:12I can't get 911.
31:15The lines are jammed, and I'm trapped at the municipal building on Spring.
31:18There are people with guns inside the clerk's office, and someone just got shot right in front of me.
31:23He's dead.
31:24Stay low and quiet.
31:25I'll be there as quick as I can.
31:29Control all the potential mass casualty events in the midst of a building on Spring Street.
31:32I need a React team for an in-progress active shooter.
31:35Send everyone you can.
31:36I'm here.
32:06Police! Come out with your hands where I can see them!
32:36Come on out. It's okay. All right, come on. I need you to go out the door. Go to an exit
32:58sign, okay? Put your hands on your head. Keep them there at all times. What's going
33:01to lead you to safety, all right? Turn left, turn left.
33:05Control Charlie team approaching court clerk's offices. Third floor. Signs of forced entry.

34:20Grab her.
34:21I need an RA victim down.
34:22carta.
34:23Oh, thank God. I was so scared.
34:24Okay. All right. All right. Look, it's not over yet, okay? Grab her.
34:26Grab her, I didn't need an RA victim down.
34:35Oh my god!
34:36I was so scared!
34:37Okay.
34:38All right.
34:39All right.
34:40Look, it's not over yet.
34:41Okay?
34:42Grab her.
34:43No.
34:44You've got to let him go.
34:45He can't protect you if you're holding on.
34:46It's all right.
34:47Stay there.
34:48Stay right there.
34:49No, don't save her!
35:08No, don't! Save her!
35:27You can get a case dismissed.
35:29Okay, here we go.
35:31You can get a case dismissed, and you're dismissed.
35:34You got a case dismissed.
35:36Well, I think you got a case dismissed.
35:37You got a case dismissed, and...
35:39Police! Show me your hands.
35:41Did a man drag a woman through here?
35:43Okay.
35:44SWAT is coming through here. They are heavily armed.
35:46If I were you, I would restrain myself and sit down.
36:07You okay?
36:08Yeah.
36:13Look out!
36:14You okay?
36:15Yeah.
36:16Here, get up.
36:17Wait, what are you... what are you doing?
36:18Arresting you.
36:19But I was held hostage. Doesn't that count for something?
36:20No, you're at the clerk's office filing a wrongful termination lawsuit against the LAPD after instigating mass violence on the job.
36:22You're not the victim here.
36:23You're not the victim here.
36:24You caused all this.
36:25All cutters!
36:26This way, come on.
36:27Take your wife!
36:28Come on.
36:29No, no, no, no.
36:30Keep him down.
36:31Go back.
36:32Hey.
36:33It's fine.
36:34That's going to put in here.
36:35No, no, no, no.
36:36Okay.
36:37I think you're not the victim here.
36:38You are the victim.
36:40You're the victim.
36:41I'm the victim.
36:42I am the victim.
36:45You're the victim.
36:46I'm sorry.
37:02So what?
37:03I got no feel-good sandwich here for you, Libby.
37:05People are dead because of your recklessness.
37:07You're lucky you're not one of them.
37:08I really didn't think that anyone was going to take this seriously.
37:12I'm so sorry.
37:14Got the arrest warrant for Detective Berman.
37:16Detective who?
37:17Berman from West Hollywood.
37:19Turns out Berman is having an affair with the wife of our murder victim.
37:22Berman killed his competition and blackmailed a witness to frame Ben Dover for his crime.
37:27Ben Dover?
37:28Yes, sir.
37:29Dover is a real person with an unfortunate name.
37:32I hate April Fool's Day.
37:33See, if you need backup for the arrest, you're going to have to wait.
37:36Oh, I had the arrest come to the backup, sir.
37:38I had Berman's captain call him down here to assist with the scene.
37:42Smart.
37:42Yeah, I'd try.
37:45Yeah, though.
37:46It's me.
37:47Where are you?
37:47Downtown, just landing in a crime scene.
37:50It's set up.
37:50An arrest warrant with your name on it just came across my desk.
37:53They're about to put you in cuffs, dude.
37:55I never called you.
38:03What's he doing?
38:04I don't know.
38:04Trying out some mime school?
38:06The call was a titlock.
38:08Herman, show me your hands!
38:18Hands now!
38:19Then, Officer Craig noticed a glass at the scene, still wet with alcoholic beverage.
38:30He photographed it where he found it.
38:31Before, a group of rioters took over your crime scene and destroyed yet another shop.
38:36The dissipation rate of alcohol and Anita's fingerprints on the glass placed her at the scene near the time of the murder.
38:43We believe that she was lying in wait for him to come home and then confronted him outside the vehicle and shot him multiple times, hoping that we would pin the murder on the purge.
38:53I understand you also had your first tactical retreat.
38:56Is that what cops call running away?
38:57Yeah, it just sounds cooler when you say it that way.
38:59Ah, yeah.
38:59Then, yes, sir.
39:01After some time, we circled back and the crowd had moved on.
39:04But not before damaging our shop, stealing Teddy's watch and wallet, and posting selfies with the corpse.
39:11Which means it'll be easier to identify and arrest.
39:14Nice to see people's stupidity works in our favor this time.
39:17Ah, good news.
39:19Rampart just picked up Anita at Union Station trying to get on a train to Flagstaff.
39:23They're bringing her in now.
39:24All right.
39:25So, Officer Craig, after everything you've seen tonight, this career is still something you want to pursue?
39:31Oh, yes, sir.
39:33This career is everything I've ever dreamed about.
39:36A lot of my friends thought I was crazy for joining the Academy, but, you know, I believe helping people is my calling.
39:42And if you can find it in your heart to give me a proper chance, I promise you won't regret it.
39:50All right.
39:50I will endorse your continuation in the FTO program, but I will have to reassign you to a different, much quieter division
39:59to make sure you have the best opportunity to succeed.
40:03Yes, sir.
40:03Thank you, sir.
40:04You're welcome.
40:05All right.
40:06Dismissed.
40:12Thank you for giving me a second chance.
40:15Connery, you stepped up when it mattered.
40:17And I know you are transferring out, but, uh, I'm always here as a resource.
40:22Just, you know, be chill about it.
40:23I will.
40:25Later.
40:25Hey.
40:28Hey.
40:29Things got interesting out there with your rookie.
40:31A little fighting, a little, uh, tactical retreating, a little murtel.
40:34Not bad for my first purge.
40:36Don't even joke about that.
40:37Bradford, chin.
40:39In here.
40:41See you tomorrow.
40:42Hopefully.
40:43It's come to my attention that you two are back in a romantic relationship when you both
40:48know it's against the rules.
40:50He's your supervisor, for God's sake.
40:52Yes, yes, sir.
40:53But, uh, look, we've been trying to fight the feeling for a long time.
40:57April Fool's.
40:59April Fool's.
41:02Are you okay?
41:05Sir, what's going on?
41:07Oh, my God.
41:07Sir?
41:07Are you having a heart attack?
41:08Whoa.
41:09Oh, my God.
41:09Call.
41:10Call.
41:10Are you all right?
41:11Sit back.
41:11Oh, my God.
41:16Gotcha.
41:19I thought you hated pranks.
41:21I do.
41:24But to wipe the smug look off your faces, it was worth joining in this one time.
41:31Yes.
41:32We deserve that.
41:33But you nearly scared me half to death.
41:35Good.
41:36Good, good, good.
41:37Remember that next time you think about trying to fool me.
41:40Now, go.
41:41Have a good night.
41:45Happy?
41:46Thrills.
41:47I mean, that worked out perfectly.
41:48And we still have 55 minutes left.
41:50The only problem is I live 30 minutes away.
41:52Not if we hurry.
41:54Uh, where are you, uh, going?
41:56Oh, home.
41:56I'll see you there.
41:58Yeah.
41:59I'll, uh, see you there.
42:00There is definitely something going on between us, too.
42:08Case life.
42:09Practice your medicine on the high seas.
42:11Not being stuck.
42:15It's...
42:16Addictive.
42:17Exhilarating.
