00:01Previously on The Rookie Feds...
00:03He did work counterintelligence for a decade
00:05before he came out to Los Angeles.
00:06Just asked for the best investigator they had.
00:09Well, you got him.
00:10We're professionals who break guys like you for a living,
00:12and if you think the Russians have your back,
00:14you are hopelessly naive.
00:16The reason I haven't opened the bottle
00:18is because I'm sober 247 days.
00:22Thank you for sharing that with me.
00:24I lateral transfer from Oakland PD six months ago,
00:26and I gotta say, I'm still not vibing with that L.A. thing.
00:29You just haven't given the right people a try.
00:32Once you find your folks,
00:34you gonna see L.A. through different eyes.
00:39Hey, girl, hey.
00:40Sorry I'm late.
00:41All good. I already ordered.
00:43Should I go over to sleep?
00:44Hell no.
00:46I've been up since the crack of black, okay?
00:48I lost track of time reading case files.
00:51Hi, sweetie.
00:52Can I have a black rice bowl
00:54with the dressing on the side,
00:56egg whites, extra fluffy,
00:58immune booster coffee with two shots of espresso?
01:03What?
01:04That's the most bougie breakfast order I've ever heard.
01:06Let me guess.
01:07You ordered a egg sandwich with extra cholesterol.
01:11And I'm excited to eat it.
01:13You're working a big investigation?
01:14Those case files?
01:15Oh, no.
01:16Those are slow burners.
01:17I just like to soak up as much knowledge as I can
01:20about any open case I can get my hands on.
01:23Gotta keep the black girl magic going.
01:25You know what your problem is?
01:26You got your coworkers thinking you're a black superhero.
01:29And?
01:30And you're not.
01:31You're 50 years old.
01:3248, thank you.
01:33And you're doing too much.
01:36Aren't you tired?
01:38I'm exhausted.
01:41But I've worked so hard and come so far,
01:44I can't take my foot off the gas now.
01:47Where did you come from?
01:49This is...
01:50This is blood.
01:51Whose dog is this?
01:56Ma'am!
01:57Looks like you fell and hit your head.
01:59Are you alright?
02:00I got jumped.
02:01Did they rob you?
02:02All my clients' keys.
02:05They could be robbing their houses right now.
02:07We're gonna need a list of names and addresses.
02:09We're gonna need to get units to all those houses ASAP.
02:12This isn't a federal case, Simone.
02:14It's LAPD.
02:15I got it.
02:16If you think I'm gonna walk away
02:17while you run towards danger,
02:19you don't know me at all.
02:20Now get some backup down here in the ambulance for this girl
02:23so we can go run these guys down.
02:25Damn!
02:26What is it that you think I'm doing?
02:27Calling the nail salon?
02:32Did you see the breaking news?
02:38Uh, what?
02:40Quite the scandal.
02:42Last night, this man stayed over at his girlfriend's house.
02:45They had quite the romantic evening.
02:49But when she woke up, instead of getting breakfast in bed,
02:52he was gone.
02:54No note, no text, no call.
02:58He ghosted her as if they don't work in the same building.
03:01I'm sorry.
03:02After you fell asleep, I, uh, I got a phone call from Michelle.
03:06So a woman I've never heard of got you out of my bed.
03:09No.
03:10This isn't helping.
03:11Michelle is, uh, my, my sponsor's wife.
03:16Randy didn't show up last night, so I, uh, went out to go look for him
03:20and found him in a dive bar.
03:23Hammered.
03:24Your sponsor? Oh, no.
03:26Decade of sobriety back to counting days instead of years.
03:31I'm so sorry.
03:32It's okay.
03:33Where is he now?
03:34Uh, he's, he's home safe, drying up.
03:36Do you wanna take a walk, talk?
03:38No.
03:39It's, it's okay.
03:40I'm, I'm, I'm fine.
03:42I actually, uh, I need to talk to you later.
03:45Of course.
03:48It's been four months since Simone and Brenton joined our operation
03:51and I wanna commend the both of you for getting them to this point.
03:54I, I appreciate that, Matt.
03:56Considering I had a tougher assignment with Simone.
03:58Excuse me.
03:59I have been turning a former TV star meat puppet into a solid field agent.
04:03My job is way tougher.
04:04At least actors can follow directions.
04:06Do you know how hard I've had to work to break a wild horse?
04:09Especially one who constantly reminds you she's black beauty.
04:12Yes, Brendan.
04:13Hey, uh, am I supposed to be in here and you guys keep looking out at me?
04:16Hey, is that my file and Simone's?
04:19You're just finishing up a senior's briefing, Brendan.
04:22Oh, sorry.
04:24Where is Simone?
04:25Uh, I have no idea.
04:26Oh, I see Carter hasn't been teaching his training about punctuality.
04:30Oh, speaking of.
04:33Simone, we were just talking about you.
04:35Because you're late.
04:36Sorry, boss, but I kinda got caught up in an international incident.
04:43This better be good, Simone.
04:45It is.
04:46A dog walker was assaulted by two robbers looking to gain access to her rich client's homes.
04:52Now, before LAPD could mobilize, two of the houses were already ransacked.
04:58One of them belonged to Victor Soroka, Council General of the Republic of Belarus.
05:04Uh, burglary of a dignitary's home isn't a great look for L.A.,
05:07but what elevates it to an international incident?
05:10Wait for it.
05:13Okay, freeze.
05:14And zoom in.
05:16Boom.
05:17They stole a diplomatic pouch.
05:19All right, I need to reach out to the consulate right away.
05:21Already did.
05:22They're sending someone.
05:23How about the State Department?
05:24No, I didn't call them.
05:25Those guys are even more uptight than the FBI.
05:27Hmm?
05:28Left that conversation to you.
05:29Oh, thanks.
05:36Radha.
05:37I was not aware that you were stationed here in Los Angeles.
05:40Secretary of Council.
05:41Two months now.
05:42Radha Ryback.
05:43Meet Special Agents Carter Hope, Simone Clark, and this is Detective Naomi Voss.
05:46Are you the homeowner, ma'am?
05:48No, it's Counsel General and his family's mansion.
05:50He sent me on his behalf.
05:52Um, you, uh, didn't go inside, did you?
05:56We had to.
05:57Robbery suspects had assaulted a woman.
05:59We made entry to make sure there wasn't anyone else in distress.
06:02Yeah, and we found out that they took a lot of the family's property.
06:06Including a diplomatic pouch.
06:09That's bad.
06:10Which is why the FBI is already involved.
06:12Any idea of what was in it?
06:14None.
06:15Well, if you knew, would you tell us?
06:16Diplomatic pouches are as sovereign as our Counselor.
06:20Belarus business only.
06:22I'm prohibited from sharing.
06:24What about the Counsel General?
06:25Will he tell us?
06:26I doubt it.
06:27And he's busy getting ready for a state dinner.
06:30Still, we need to ask.
06:31It's in both our countries' best interests to get that pouch back to you.
06:34And if we know what's inside of it, then that'll help us target where the thieves might try and sell it, so...
06:39And I'm supposed to trust that you won't take any pictures of what's inside before you hand it over?
06:45Radha, honey, nobody's trying to play you.
06:48All we want to do is catch these guys and get your country's confidential materials back.
06:53That's all.
06:56I see what I can do.
06:57Now if you'll excuse me.
06:59Of course.
07:00How do you know her?
07:03From my counterintelligence days.
07:05She may be a diplomat right now, but once a spy, always a spy.
07:09So we can't trust her?
07:10Trust her.
07:11Simone, that woman is the second in command of a consulate for a bleak and volatile country that has been at war with itself since its independence.
07:19With these comrades, we trust no one.
07:22I appreciate you meeting with us, Mr. Consul General.
07:25You can appreciate all you want, but I cannot help you.
07:29Mr. Soroka, we're here in the interest of diplomacy.
07:31Whatever was in that pouch is of great importance to your country, so just let us help you get it back.
07:35Unless there was something in the pouch you don't want to disclose.
07:38I confess, it's nuclear launch codes, a list of American spies, and the Holy Grail.
07:47Holy Grail.
07:48Yeah.
07:49It's funny, but, uh, Mr. Consul General, I can assure you we are only trying to help you get your pouch back.
07:56There's no ulterior motives here.
07:57Now I know you're lying.
07:59You think I haven't been briefed about you?
08:01I'm no longer in counterintelligence, but I respect the suspicion.
08:04Here's my card.
08:05You call if you change your mind.
08:07And if you don't, we'll contact you once the burglars have been caught and your property has been returned.
08:19Nice touch with the Russian.
08:21Think he's just being a diplomat or is he actually hiding something?
08:24Both.
08:45Find him.
08:47And find the pouch before FBI does.
08:51Okay, any luck tracing that van?
08:53I managed to track it through the street cameras for half a mile, but then I lost it in the Mid-Wilshire Dead Zone.
08:57But I got enough angles to create a 3D rendering and identify it as a 2009 Econoline.
09:02The system's currently using a program I created to match the dents and dings to other footage of the vehicle captured within the last few weeks.
09:10Uh, it feels like you want me to be impressed by this.
09:12Are you?
09:13Only results impress me.
09:14Right.
09:15So, uh, if there's any way I'm coming up shore, just let me know.
09:19Oh, okay. You think I've been holding back?
09:21Your criticism's usually very... constructive.
09:25Okay, what-what is going on with you? You're even more emo than usual.
09:29Nothing.
09:30There's...
09:31Oh.
09:32Wait, what's this?
09:33Oh, my God, there it is.
09:34Six sightings of the van in the last three weeks, four with license plates.
09:37Okay, so if I just type in the information right here...
09:41There he is.
09:42Owner of the van Tripp Madsen, 6247 Sycamore in Hollywood.
09:45Now I'm impressed.
09:46All right, call in for a telephonic warrant.
09:55FBI, open up! We have a warrant!
09:57Check it out.
10:10Looks like the stuff they stole this morning.
10:12No diplomatic pouch.
10:14What the?
10:16Okay, we'll take the roof, you cover the street.
10:19Okay.
10:32What was that?
10:37Alright, go, go, go.
10:41He must've jumped down there.
10:42Simone, suspects on the loose.
10:43Most likely escaping through the building to our east.
10:48No suspects in sight.
10:51We got two on the ground and I can identify one as the van driver.
10:58Nothing personal.
10:59But next time you invite me to breakfast, I'm saying no.
11:06No sign of the diplomatic pouch.
11:09Killers must've taken it with them.
11:10Killers?
11:11Plural?
11:12No way one person could get two people off the roof against her will.
11:15Even at gunpoint.
11:16And look, this looks like a mini photo studio.
11:19Probably to take pics of the stuff they steal to sell online.
11:22Maybe they took photos of what was in the pouch before they killed them.
11:24But I don't see any cameras.
11:25The photos must be on their phones.
11:27Let's pray they survive the eight-story fall.
11:33Reach out to Nazar.
11:34Tell him we tracked down the diplomatic pouch.
11:36We're back in business, but we have to work fast.
11:39Where are you from?
11:40Where are you from?
11:41Where are you from?
11:42Where are you from?
11:43Where are you from?
11:44I've been walking.
11:45I'll see him soon.
11:46What's in the pouches?
11:47Your deal.
11:48What the hell are you doing?
11:49Give it to me.
11:50Let go of me.
11:51Don't tell my father to have you killed.
11:53Who told you to have you killed?
11:54Who told you that I will listen to you?
11:55Erick has never been taken away from you.
11:56And you always get upset me.
11:57Don't.
11:58Don't.
11:59Don't.
12:00Don't.
12:01Are you insane?
12:02They love me in Belarus.
12:03Why am I not surprised?
12:04I mean, Vampire Cop was number one there for...
12:05Alright, did you get out of these phones to work away?
12:06Uh, no.
12:07Not yet.
12:08Yeah, Brendan was just telling me how popular he is in Belarus.
12:09Why am I not surprised?
12:10Oh!
12:11Here we go.
12:12Uh, most of the files are corrupted, except for recent photos.
12:13Oh, they seem like fun.
12:14Wait, wait, hang on, hang on.
12:15I'm not surprised.
12:16You're not surprised.
12:17Oh, it's not just.
12:18Oh, I'm not surprised.
12:19That was too bad.
12:20I'm not surprised.
12:21Don't.
12:22Don't.
12:23Don't.
12:24Are you insane?
12:25They love me in Belarus.
12:27Why am I not surprised?
12:28I mean, Vampire Cop was number one there for...
12:29Alright.
12:30Did you get either of these phones to work away?
12:32Uh, no.
12:33Not yet.
12:34Yeah, Brendan was just telling me how popular he is in Belarus.
12:36Why am I not surprised?
12:37Oh, here we go.
12:39Wait, wait, hang on, hang on.
12:40There it is.
12:41Those are currency plates.
12:43For a $20 bill.
12:50How are you so epically stupid?
12:54Dad, you don't understand.
12:56No, you don't understand.
12:58I'm walking a razor's edge.
13:00There are those back home who think I'm not hard-line enough.
13:04They're sharpening their knives, hoping for me to slip up,
13:08even put an enemy in beside me.
13:12And you, my old son, you constantly enlarge the target on my back.
13:21I'm trying to help the family, not hurt it.
13:23I don't understand why you don't have this boogeyman
13:25put Radha in the ocean.
13:26Enough.
13:29Whatever you have to stops.
13:32And if not, I'll send you to join the infantry in Vitavsk.
13:37Understood?
13:38The good news is, the plates are counterfeit.
13:41But they are damn fine ones.
13:43How can you tell?
13:44You see that little hint of green right there
13:45in the metals coloring?
13:46That's copper.
13:47U.S. currency plates, zero copper.
13:49Why would you smuggle a plate into the United States?
13:51Wouldn't it be safer to bang out $20 bills in Belarus?
13:54Actually, Belarus is known for going medieval on criminals.
13:57Los Angeles is the world's capital for foraging.
14:00They will get much better quality bills here.
14:03There's something not tracking for me here.
14:05Corruption is rampant in Belarus, that's a given, but counterfeiting U.S. currency, that's
14:10a fast track to sanctions and more.
14:11Why would Victor risk it?
14:13Maybe he's not involved.
14:14I just don't think we have enough information to speculate yet.
14:17Where are you headed, boss?
14:20To have a clandestine conversation.
14:22Going old school with that newspaper on me.
14:28I couldn't resist.
14:30So, out with it, why are you here?
14:36I told my team that we couldn't trust you, but I'm going to gamble on the fact that your
14:40ambition outweighs your loyalty, and I do have a sneaking suspicion that you don't much
14:44like being number two to Victor Soroka.
14:47No comment.
14:49Let's walk.
14:51We know what's inside the pouch.
14:56That was fast.
14:57Does that mean you recovered it?
14:59No.
15:00Someone got to it first, killed the burglars, took the pouch, but we do have photos of what
15:04was inside.
15:05What?
15:06You're going to make me guess?
15:09Counterfeit plates for an American $20 bill.
15:13And what is it you want from me?
15:16Well, at a minimum, insight, and a maximum, get ourselves plates back.
15:23Why would I do any of that for you?
15:25No.
15:26No, no, no.
15:27You wouldn't be doing it for me.
15:28You'd be doing it for you.
15:29Put your thumb on the skills of justice, Radha, and you might just find yourself becoming
15:33the new Consul General.
15:34Huh.
15:35Well, Victor's too cautious to do something so stupid.
15:42Focus on Costa, his son.
15:43That boy is nothing but trouble.
15:45The doctor always cleans up his baby gross messes.
15:48Radha, the kid's got diplomatic immunity.
15:50And there's no guarantee that I can push the state to revoke that immunity.
15:54So...
15:55Well, how do we get these plates back, please?
15:56Well, there's nothing I can do...
15:58No, no, no, Radha.
15:59Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
16:00There's a party tonight.
16:02Right?
16:03The consulate.
16:04The reception.
16:05Okay.
16:06Put two names on the guest list for me.
16:07There was a smell on the cover.
16:08Each one's a mile away.
16:09I think I have a way around that.
16:12Our prime suspect is Costa Soroka.
16:14He's the 23-year-old son of the Consul General, and he's been in the U.S. with his father
16:18for the last three years.
16:19He's taken complete advantage of his diplomatic immunity.
16:23He was arrested five times.
16:24Assault, drugs, theft.
16:26Yeah, but he's walked away every time.
16:29This kid has got to feel invincible.
16:30For our purposes, he basically is.
16:32The only way we can arrest him is if Belarus revokes his immunity, which is a big lift.
16:37And that's why our first priority is to recover these currency plates.
16:40Now, Senator Smith has pulled some strings at the State Department, got us approved to
16:44conduct a black bag operation.
16:46Inside the Belarus consulate?
16:47Brendan and Laura are going in.
16:48No, I can't.
16:49I can't do that.
16:50I'm too famous in Belarus to go undercover.
16:52Exactly.
16:53Which is why you will be going in as yourself.
16:54Ooh.
16:55Yeah.
16:56That's right.
16:57A paid public appearance at tonight's consulate reception by none other than the vampire cop
17:02himself, organized by his publicist, Bibby Baxter.
17:07That sounds like an alias for a Marvel superhero.
17:10Next time, you got to let me come up with the undercover name, because you do not do it
17:15well, sir.
17:18While Brendan steals all the focus, Laura, you are going to find your way into the Consul
17:22General's office, where most likely these plates are locked in a safe behind his desk.
17:26Oh, that's great, but my safe-cracking skills leave a little to be desired.
17:31Then it's a good thing I already have the entry code.
17:33That is next level, smooth boss.
17:35Sooner than I, this is not a normal undercover op.
17:38Brendan and Laura will be on sovereign territory.
17:40If they get in trouble, we won't be able to just bust in and save him.
17:43Speak for yourself.
17:44If anything happens to my boy, you already know I'm going full mama bear, huh?
17:50Mm-hmm.
17:51Yeah.
17:52You got it worse.
17:53What's that supposed to mean?
17:54Never mind.
17:55Laura, Brendan, go get your glam on.
17:56Carter, fire up the surveillance van.
17:57This party starts in an hour.
18:01Simone, a word?
18:02Yeah, what's up?
18:03I heard that Brendan was going undercover at a party.
18:04Oh, girl.
18:05Don't worry about that.
18:06I'm going to be in a van right outside.
18:07It's not his safety I'm worried about.
18:08It's his sobriety.
18:09What?
18:10Did you know his sponsor fell on a wagon?
18:11Off the wagon?
18:12And no, he didn't tell me.
18:13You're closest to him.
18:14Say no more.
18:15I'm on it.
18:16Good looking out.
18:18Damn, B. You're going to catch a crook or a date, because you fine.
18:24I see it.
18:25Yes, I do.
18:26Mm-hmm.
18:27You sure you're up for it?
18:28Yeah.
18:29I've always got to do all the hard work.
18:30I just got to show up, be me.
18:31Well, old me.
18:32Well, the old you used to drink at parties like this.
18:35It could get uncomfortable.
18:36Yeah, I've been to plenty of bars sober, you know.
18:37Remember back at Quantico?
18:38Just go out drinking with the Nats.
18:39Oh, yeah.
18:41And you would hold onto one drink all night?
18:43And you had to beenaied, just go on to sleep.
18:45And I know thenın' nights all night.
18:46But I don't think we want to make that the night.
18:47I would make that the night night.
18:48Yeah, I would make that night night.
18:49You see it.
18:50Yes, I do.
18:51Mm-hmm.
18:52You sure you're up for it?
18:53Yeah.
18:54I've always got to do all the hard work.
18:55I just got to show up, be me.
18:56Well, old me.
18:57Well, the old you used to drink at parties like this.
18:59It could get uncomfortable.
19:00Yeah.
19:01I've been to plenty of bars sober, you know.
19:06until I would always accidentally spill it on you
19:10so you didn't have to take a sip.
19:12Mm-hmm.
19:13The difference is I won't be there.
19:17Antoinette told you about Randy.
19:19Mm. Why didn't you?
19:21You got enough on your plate. It's fine.
19:23Don't do that.
19:24What?
19:25I always have time for you.
19:27I know. I just, you know...
19:30Randy's my guy. He saved my life.
19:34He told me what to do, when to do it,
19:36and, uh...
19:37At ten years sober, it was...
19:39You know, if he can go out, what chance do I have?
19:41Hey.
19:42You gotta tell Garza and be pulled from the assignment.
19:45I mean, nothing is more important than your sobriety.
19:48Nothing.
19:49We're rookies.
19:50We gotta prove ourselves every day.
19:51They can't be part of my job I can't do.
19:53Come on.
19:54I'll make it work. I always do.
19:58Right.
19:59Right?
20:00But I will be in your ear.
20:02And I will be that angel on your shoulder.
20:05I'll be your first.
20:07I do have a little devil in me, don't I?
20:12You good?
20:14Yeah.
20:15Love you.
20:19Love you.
20:31We're in?
20:33Eyes on Victor.
20:36No sign of the kid yet.
20:38Oh!
20:39Uh, no. Thank you.
20:41Yeah.
20:42I've seen a few heads turn, but I'm not really getting the, uh, Belarus love.
20:47Stoker, Ramsay?
20:48Oh.
20:49Vampire come?
20:50Oh, shamuy.
20:51It is him.
20:52You can't kill. It's already dead.
20:53I'm your biggest fan, Mr. Akers.
20:55Brendan, please. Nice to meet you.
20:57It's nice to meet you.
20:58Is this your girlfriend?
20:59No. Uh, no. Publicist, Bibi Baxter.
21:02No.
21:05Why are you here?
21:06Paid appearance.
21:07Right.
21:09How much to take him home with us afterwards?
21:12Dang.
21:13These Belarusians are thirsty.
21:19You tired already?
21:22Don't worry about me.
21:23As your training agent, one of my jobs is to make sure you're fit for duty.
21:27Self-care matters.
21:28Carter, I appreciate the concern.
21:31But nobody is more about the me than me.
21:35I'm good.
21:36Good to know.
21:40One, two, three.
21:42Yes.
21:43Really nice.
21:44Thank you, ladies.
21:46So, uh, what is your favorite part of the show?
21:49The romance? The action?
21:52You're a body.
21:53We used to have watch parties and take a bloodshot every time you said crime sucks.
21:57We should do one now, huh?
21:59Oh, uh, what's a bloodshot?
22:02Crambambula, red wine and vodka.
22:05Everybody must take a bloodshot.
22:10You got this, B.
22:12All right.
22:15Crime sucks.
22:21Mmm.
22:23Mmm.
22:24Wow-wee.
22:26Mmm.
22:27That was so good.
22:28My father has no vision.
22:30He never has.
22:31I could do so much for this family.
22:33Oh, hello, boys.
22:34Rada.
22:35You're enjoying yourself?
22:37Always.
22:38What are you smiling about?
22:39Just boys who play at being men.
22:43Let me see that picture.
22:44I'm getting it now.
22:45Mm-hmm.
22:46Another one?
22:47Uh, yeah.
22:48Line them up.
22:49I'm in.
22:50Okay.
22:51Okay.
22:52Got eyes on the plates.
22:53Got eyes on the plates.
22:55Oh!
22:56Run!
22:57Run!
22:58Stabs!
22:59Ha-ha-ha-ha!
23:00.*
23:29You know what else sucks? Having a tiny bladder.
23:32I'll be right back, okay? Just give me one second.
23:35What is going on with Laura?
23:36We lost contact with her.
23:38Brendan, go to Victor's office and check on her right now.
23:40Got it.
23:48Safe is open.
23:50There's no sign of Laura anywhere.
23:56Laura, are you okay?
23:57Here. I gotcha.
24:00They ambushed me, knocked me out before I could see a face.
24:03And they took the plates out.
24:07What are you doing in my office?
24:11Hi.
24:11Uh, this is a misunderstanding.
24:14Oh, is it?
24:15We have a soundproof roof downstairs where we work out these misunderstandings.
24:21We gotta get them out of there.
24:22You can't go in there.
24:23Watch me.
24:24Simone, stand down.
24:24But...
24:25Laura, tell the Consul General to answer his phone.
24:28Sir, your phone is gonna ring.
24:30You should answer it.
24:31What?
24:31Your phone.
24:32Let's go.
24:32Hello?
24:36Who is this?
24:37Matthew Garza, FBI.
24:41And this two belong to you?
24:43Yes, and I want them back right now.
24:45Sure.
24:46After I hold a press conference about your FBI committing an illegal breaking into my consulate.
24:53Fine, and then I'll hold my own press conference detailing a Belarus conspiracy to devalue the U.S. dollar by using counterfeits.
25:00You tell me, Consul General, who wins that press war.
25:05They're gonna walk out the front door, Victor.
25:12Excurve them out.
25:13It's a lovely dress, which I would like for you to burn when you're done collecting all the DNA from my attacker off of it.
25:29No use in keeping a failure dress.
25:30Hey, we know more now than we did before, right?
25:33Costa took those currency plates.
25:35He left the consulate.
25:37He was there to steal it, just like us, so...
25:39So father and son aren't working together on this?
25:41Maybe Victor found out what his son was up to.
25:43Tried to stop him.
25:44We just need to figure out where Costa's going to next.
25:46I will.
25:46I have a bolo out for him, so let's see if we get lucky.
25:49Okay.
25:50Finished.
25:50Can you please rush that?
25:51We need hard evidence to build this case.
25:55Thanks.
25:59Hey, uh, why'd you tell Simone about my sponsor?
26:04I was worried about you.
26:06Mom, the way you've been acting, are you okay?
26:11Well, I wanted to tell her, and I'm fine.
26:15No, you're not.
26:16Yeah.
26:18Randy's my rock.
26:21You know, and now he's got less day sober than I do.
26:24I...
26:25Nothing makes sense right now.
26:29But isn't that the AA mantra?
26:31One day at a time.
26:33Except I've done everything you're not supposed to do in the first year recovery.
26:37I moved.
26:38I started a new job, a new relationship.
26:40And despite all of that, you're doing great.
26:44Am I?
26:47Maybe I've taken on too much.
26:51What are you hinting at?
26:52We shouldn't talk about it here.
26:57Look, Randy's...
26:59He's taking a newcomer trip.
27:02I really need to be there.
27:04Randy.
27:04Call me later?
27:05Yeah, I'll try.
27:09Oh.
27:11There's homework?
27:13Yeah.
27:14I pulled some files on the Belarusian government in counterfeiting.
27:17You've had more than a full day.
27:18You should rest.
27:19I know.
27:20But I still want to study a little bit more.
27:22If you stay ready, you don't have to get ready.
27:26Good night.
27:27Good night.
27:29See?
27:30It's called work ethic.
27:31You know how hard it was to teach you that?
27:33How you doing?
27:36Fine.
27:37Liar.
27:39That idiot kid could have killed you.
27:41But he didn't.
27:43Doesn't mean it wasn't scary as hell.
27:46You know, I'm here if you want to talk about it or grab a beer and not talk about it.
27:52Thanks.
27:53But I'm going to go change.
27:54I'm going to go change.
28:24Oh, my God.
28:41You fell asleep driving?
28:43Yep.
28:44You could have killed yourself.
28:45We're an innocent civilian.
28:46You're right.
28:48I've just been going so hard for so long.
28:50I guess it just caught up with me.
28:54I never want to be seen as a liability.
28:58You can never be seen that way.
29:02Once I get this vintage body some rest, I think I'll be fine.
29:06It's more than your body.
29:07You need to rest your mind.
29:09Extra sleep isn't enough.
29:11So, Mom, at this rate, you're going to burn yourself out in six months.
29:13Oh, good morning, baby girl.
29:18Good morning.
29:19Now, who do we have here?
29:21Daddy, this is my friend, Naomi.
29:23Oh, your friend or your friend-friend?
29:26Oh, my God.
29:27How do you have to make everything so weird?
29:30No, Daddy.
29:31She is just my friend.
29:33Naomi, this is my dad, Cudi.
29:36Nice to meet you.
29:37Pleasure.
29:38Well, sorry I can't stay around and charm you ladies,
29:41but I got my weekly chess match,
29:44and today I is bringing the pain.
29:48Good luck.
29:49I don't need it.
29:50I got to go, too.
29:51You want a ride?
29:52Nah, Brendan is going to swoop me.
29:54Remember what I said.
29:57I got it.
30:03Hey, boss.
30:05Antoinette got a DNA hit from my dress.
30:07The guy who attacked me at the embassy was Costa,
30:09just like we thought.
30:10Finally, some hard evidence.
30:11He's still out there with those counterfeit plates.
30:13Yeah, well, he's either going to try to sell them to a third party,
30:16or he's going to try to make himself some funny money, right?
30:17Your printer is a rock star.
30:21And expensive.
30:22It's worth every counterfeit thing.
30:25What about your father?
30:27Just keep printing money.
30:29Once I make this family oligarch rich,
30:31you'll fall in line.
30:34How you doing, B?
30:36Great.
30:37How are you?
30:39I would say great, too,
30:41but then I'd be lying just as hard as you are.
30:44You want coffee?
30:46No, no, I'm good.
30:47We got to roll, actually.
30:48Boss just texted, so Costa's still in the wind.
30:50He wants us to liaise with the Secret Service,
30:52see if there's any Russian or Belarusian printers
30:54who are suspected counterfeiters.
30:56We can skip the Secret Service part of it.
30:59Why is that?
30:59Because my dad plays chess with some Russian guys.
31:02One of them, Anton, is a former Red fella.
31:05You know, Russian mafia?
31:06And, baby, he likes to talk.
31:12Clever.
31:13Do not patronize me, Anton.
31:18Ah!
31:19Daddy?
31:20Breaking the clock is not gonna make it any better.
31:24Simone, what are you doing here?
31:27Can a girl come watch her daddy in action?
31:29She can, but you would not.
31:33And you know better than to distract the player mid-game.
31:37Well, I didn't come to distract you.
31:39I came to distract your opponent.
31:41Hey, Anton, this is Brendan.
31:43He's an FBI special agent, too.
31:45Hey.
31:46Can we chat?
31:48About what?
31:49The circles you used to run in.
31:51Hey, hey, now, hold on.
31:52Anton is my friend.
31:54You're not about to interrogate...
31:54It's all right, Cuddy.
31:55It's all right.
31:56Let her go.
31:57Let her ask her questions.
31:59We just wanted to talk to you about some Eastern Bloc folks
32:02who know a thing or two about counterfeiting.
32:04Yeah, somebody is making fake $20 bills.
32:07You think you can help us figure out who it is?
32:10I'll entertain you.
32:11You entertain me.
32:13I beat your father every week.
32:15Not true.
32:17It's true.
32:18If you can take his place and beat me,
32:21then sure, maybe I can call some colleagues
32:23and, uh, we'll see what we can find out.
32:26Game on.
32:27Slide over, Daddy.
32:30Teach this young man a few things.
32:32You made a big mistake.
32:36Should have asked for a fresh game.
32:39I'm about to beat your father in three moves.
32:42Maybe that's true for my dad,
32:43but not for me, comrade.
32:45Let's get it.
32:46Arrogance.
32:47I like that.
32:48But do you like this?
32:50Brandon, I was just thinking about it.
32:57You paid for lunch last week, remember?
33:00Can I pay you back?
33:02With a check?
33:06Oh, snap.
33:08But y'all don't know if we locked the car when we got out.
33:10You should go check.
33:12Check.
33:12That's what you call a panic move.
33:25Now, I'm just gonna sit back and let the clock run out
33:28so you can realize how screwed you are.
33:33I resign.
33:34You have a very special daughter there.
33:38Yeah, I was gonna say annoying, but
33:41I will say special.
33:44You gonna make those phone calls now, Anton?
33:51This feels like a wild goose chase.
33:54Have faith, Carter.
33:59Mr. Verrovin, it's the FBI.
34:02It's the FBI, sir.
34:03We just want to talk.
34:06Get down!
34:07He's reloading.
34:14FBI, drop it!
34:15We got the plates, Carter.
34:17Cop them.
34:19Got a ton of funny money.
34:21We got you on counterfeiting and murder.
34:23You won't be able to charge me?
34:25I have diplomatic immunity.
34:26Maybe we can't charge you,
34:27but we can hold you for as long as the law will allow.
34:33What about you, sweet thing?
34:34You don't have diplomatic immunity.
34:36You want to talk?
34:38Don't tell them anything.
34:40Take this guy outside,
34:41or we'll have a little chat with his friend.
34:45I'm not talking.
34:47You just did.
34:48I'm supposed to play dumb.
34:49You're way too smart for that.
34:51Would you like to make a deal?
34:52What does this mean, a deal?
34:54You tell us the truth,
34:55and we take years off your sentence.
34:57Like how they do on American TV?
34:59Like Vampire Cop?
35:03Crime sucks.
35:05Yes, crime sucks.
35:07I love that show.
35:08And my family would watch it together in Belarus.
35:10Well, maybe we could make an introduction.
35:13If you tell us what we need to know,
35:15I mean, the guy who plays Vampire Cop,
35:17he works with us.
35:19My family would be amazed.
35:20Cooperate.
35:21And you'll make it back home
35:22to see them again real soon.
35:23Where is Costa?
35:26On the hunt.
35:27For what?
35:28A woman from the consulate.
35:30Brought her right back?
35:31Yes.
35:31Costa says she is threatened,
35:33must be killed,
35:33so Minx can't replace his father with her.
35:35A woman from the consulate.
35:36A woman from the consulate.
35:37A woman from the consulate.
35:38A woman from the consulate.
35:39A woman from the consulate.
35:40A woman from the consulate.
35:41A woman from the consulate.
35:42A woman from the consulate.
35:43A woman from the consulate.
35:44A woman from the consulate.
35:45A woman from the consulate.
35:46A woman from the consulate.
35:47A woman from the consulate.
35:48A woman from the consulate.
35:49A woman from the consulate.
35:50A woman from the consulate.
35:51A woman from the consulate.
35:52A woman from the consulate.
35:53A woman from the consulate.
35:54A woman from the consulate.
35:55A woman from the consulate.
35:56A woman from the consulate.
35:57A woman from the consulate.
35:58A woman from the consulate.
36:59Nice seeing you again.
37:04Cowboy up, Costa. Ambulance is on its way.
37:10You okay?
37:19You doing your Wednesday FaceTime dinner with Atlas?
37:22He's gonna get an earful tonight.
37:25You still struggling with what happened?
37:27No.
37:30A little.
37:31I don't know which part's worse.
37:32Trying not to be terrified so you can do your job.
37:35Or being terrified and still having to do your job.
37:38Yeah, they both suck.
37:42You know, I've been thinking,
37:44and I've come to the fair conclusion that I was wrong.
37:47Brendan is way more work as a rookie than Simone, so you win.
37:51Okay, what are you talking about?
37:53A pity victory?
37:55Come on, how fragile do you think I am?
37:57No way.
37:58Simone is clearly the most challenging rookie in the history of rookies.
38:01So, you can take the W.
38:03How about this?
38:03They're both equal pains in the ass.
38:06Mm.
38:06I just think it's only 14 more months of training to go.
38:09To the new Consul General for Belarus in the City of Angels.
38:21Thank you, Matthew.
38:25I was right, huh?
38:27You've been angling for Victor's position.
38:29Of course.
38:31I knew Kosta was smuggling.
38:32Victor was covering for him.
38:34Politically, my hands were tied until you and your merry band of special agents showed up.
38:38Glad we could be of service.
38:41No one's a spy, always a spy.
38:43You were always so good at anticipating other people's moves.
38:47Not Kosta's.
38:48I can't believe that little bastard tried to kill me.
38:51Yeah.
38:52You know, one of the great perks of my new job is the connections.
38:56So, um, call me if you ever need a favor.
39:00I will.
39:01Or if you ever want to grab dinner sometime.
39:07See, you are much better at this than I am because I did not anticipate that moment.
39:14Well, we have so much in common.
39:16Well, I've been to war three times, too.
39:19I guess people like us are just not meant to be tied down.
39:21Doesn't mean we can't have some fun.
39:23Hey, is, uh, now a good time?
39:37Look, um, about last night...
39:40Stop.
39:41Before you say anything, I have something to say.
39:44I'm so sorry for what you're going through with your sponsor.
39:47But you're not getting off the hook that easily.
39:51Off the hook?
39:52That stuff you said about taking on too much and implying that dating me was part of that?
39:59No.
40:00If you want to give up on us before we've even really gotten started, that's on you.
40:06No excuses.
40:07Just end it now.
40:11You don't understand.
40:14When I drank, I-I-I hurt people.
40:17I know what I've gotten into with you, and I'm willing to put in the work.
40:26Are you?
40:31I want to work.
40:33But I know that I'm here.
40:36It won't be easy.
40:39I don't care if it's easy or not.
40:44I don't think about you.
40:47Yes.
40:52LAPD, open up.
40:56You know you're wrong for that.
40:58You're right.
40:58I bet.
41:00Let me make it up to you with it a little bit.
41:02What is it?
41:03Something for you to concentrate on besides work.
41:06Something that will relax your body and your mind.
41:08Knitting?
41:12I know you tripped me.
41:14I'm not.
41:15For real, I tripped when my cousin in Oakland turned me on to knitting.
41:19At first, I was real sus.
41:21Then, I made a beanie cap.
41:23And I was like, damn.
41:25Twisting knots is very therapeutic.
41:27Who knew?
41:27Well, where do we start?
41:33With your hands.
41:36Because we start with a slip knot.
41:38And then we'll cast on.
41:41You all right?
41:43So you really think this is going to keep me from burning out?
41:48I don't know.
41:52But if it doesn't, we'll find something that will.
42:00Okay.
42:00All right.
42:01You said we need to cast on.
42:03Right.
42:04And then once I teach you how to purl, we'll get into the zone.
42:09Into the zone?
42:12Girl, you got a lot of layers.
42:15But I'm down.
42:16Let's do it.
42:17Let's do it.
42:20Let's do it.
42:21Let's do it.
