You see this?
Freeze! Freeze!
I got the front.
I'll take the front.
A36 in pursuit of an ADW suspect
in the alley off the corner
of 113th and may.
Cops wake up every morning
different from the rest of us.
Our worst nightmare
is just their wednesday.
I know.
I'm sorry, me being here.
But I need someplace safe.
How'd you get my address, Danell?
- Pastor Higgins, at our church.
- Our church?
The only time you were there, you were
wrapped in a blanket, eating soup.
You gonna let me in?
What are you doing back out here?
- It's my brother's birthday.
- Your brother's in Pelican Bay.
Yeah, but I still got to mark it
with my "play" brother, Darren.
But, then, Darren's boy J-mac,
you know,
says those treys
I snitched on found out I was back.
Now they looking out to kill me.
What did you think was gonna happen?
I don't know.
When we moved you after the trial,
it was for your safety.
If you want to stay safe,
you got to go back to Lancaster.
You can't keep sneaking back
into your old 'hood.
Things ain't exactly worked out for me
in Lancaster, neither.
You're using again.
I swear!
Now, come on.
Can I come in?
Please?
- I got nowhere else.
- Stay out here.
Thank you.
So, how is the little guy?
Did he sleep okay last night?
Yeah, he slept good,
then he took the whole bottle.
Whole bottle?
You're lucky.
You change him?
No, I just like to let him sit in it.
Sammy.
Come on with the comedy.
I'm just asking.
I know sometimes you're rushed.
I'm taking Nate for his shots on friday,
right?
I still don't know.
River said that mercury
can be damaging.
I know what River says.
But I don't think
that your Pilates teacher's opinion
should get more weight
than the surgeon general.
Besides, all the crap
I'm exposed to on the street.
Listen, Tammi.
I'm gonna call you back, okay?
What's the matter?
You don't remember me?
Is there a reason
I should remember you?
It's me, Ramos.
From the academy, man!
I'm working narco now.
You?
You idiot.
I almost shot you in the face.
There's been a spike in GTAs
in the north end,
so keep eyes peeled
for roving corollas
driven by some knucklehead
with an "aw, ***" look on his face.
Any questions?
All right.
It's time to welcome
John Cooper back to full duty.
I pity the fool
that's got to ride with his ***.
Show us what you got, Robocop.
At least touch your toes.
Show us your bruised-up knees
from being the captain's office ***
for the past couple of months.
Cooper, you're riding with Tang.
Let's get out there.
Be safe, okay?
Hollywood.
What happened, you draw the short straw
today and you get stuck with the gimp?
Hey, gimp.
- Heard good things about you.
- You, too.
I know it's your first day back,
but I'm not into shoving off late,
- so I'll meet you downstairs in five.
- I'll grab the keys.
Actually, it's wednesday,
so I'm gonna drive.
I'll juice her up.
I'll meet you downstairs.
- ***, dang, sweet pu Tang.
- Dewey, give it a rest.
Dude.
Please tell me
you've seen her Youtube video.
- What are you talking about?
- You haven't seen the video?
Do yourself a favor and check
that performance out.
It's a mindblower.
But, seriously,
it's good to have you back.
What's up, officer Sherman?
You meet another hot bohemian chick
at a poetry slam last night?
No, I'm just soaking it up, man.
Exhaust fumes,
the smell of the guns
Just another beautiful day to be
a police officer in the city of L.
A.
So it was two chicks.
You had a threesome.
What about you?
You meet any factory-issue blondes
at the outlet store in Newhall?
I'm so proud of you.
Keeping it real,
walking in the crappy dog park,
buying local art
off the wall of the coffee shop.
What's it like
living in The Truman Show?
How much to buy
that dump you're living in?
$1.
5 million? $2 million?
A quarter of that, you could be living
in 5,000 square feet.
Leather couch, plasma screen,
not to mention the pool,
which is like badge bunny central.
How does that apply to you?
My uncle Sid gets more action,
and he's on dialysis.
I got my hands full with Nate.
But, trust me, I will be back
in the game before you know it.
You got your glasses, grandma?
I do.
I look good, don't I?
Geez.
Look at this.
Sarge.
Can I see something?
Ferguson switched cars with us.
Ferguson!
What?
What the *** man.
You get assigned
a dirty car, you pawn it off on us?
Early bird, man.
I got here first.
You don't want any of that ***,
you just toss it.
Let's go.
Still feel like it's a beautiful day?
Let's go, baby.
Jerry,
I know it's not a revolving door.
Can you just see,
you know, as a favor for me,
if she can be re-relocated?
All right.
Thanks.
My wife always starts baking
after we fight.
Is that carrot?
What is it with you women?
Us Women?
When I was on patrol,
I wasn't making enough money.
So what do I do? I jump through hoops so
that I can become a detective trainee.
Now she's always complaining because
I make *** money and I'm never home.
I'm tempted
to re-enlist in Afghanistan.
Do another tour.
Then again, I'm scared
she might call my bluff
so she can get that signing bonus.
What?
Something wrong?
Old C.
I.
of mine showed up at my house
at the crack of dawn.
What did she want?
Out of Lancaster.
That's where
we relocated her when she testified.
So, in the meantime, what?
I was hoping maybe she could stay
with you guys for a while.
You got a basement, right?
Relax.
Maybe a motel or something.
I'm driving,
so, obviously, I'm contact.
I carry a Glock 40,
extended magazines are in my war bag.
I carry a backup on my right ankle.
It's a Ruger 380.
You?
Smith 9.
Stopped carrying a second weapon
when my back went out.
Used to pinch against a nerve
every time I sat down.
I'd feel better if you carried one.
How long you been out of rehab?
Rehab.
For your back surgery?
Eight weeks.
Light duty.
You'll start carrying a backup, then?
I'll think about it.
So, what nickname are you gonna use?
"Hollywood", "Pu Tang", "Joy Luck".
Pretty much heard them all.
How about
Jessica?
- You see it?
- What?
The video of me.
- I haven't had a chance.
- Look at this guy.
Light him up.
This ***.
License and registration.
Why are you harassing me?
- License, registration, and insurance.
- And if I don't just give it to you?
You refusing to give me your license?
I am.
- Get out of the car, sir.
Get out now!
- You get me out, ***!
Numb nuts!
You want to go to jail?
You can go home with a ticket or you go
to jail with my foot in your ***.
Your choice.
Now get your *** out of the car.
Reginald!
- What the hell you do?
- Ma, stay out of this!
Get out of the car!
Don't you back talk with me.
You almost smacked that lady back there,
and then I almost hit her
making a u-turn coming back here!
- He's giving you attitude?
- A little bit.
Give his *** a ticket.
I told him
to stop texting while he was driving,
and he's gonna pay for it,
not his Ma or Tirelle.
You got that?
He refused to exit the vehicle,
and he was extremely disrespectful.
I'm sorry about that, officer.
I have truly done my best.
That's the last time
you drive that car.
All I've done for you.
All I didn't do because of you.
It's gonna take Jesus and two more white
folks to keep me from kicking your ***!
Do you not understand anything I say?
Stand aside, we'll get him that ticket
and be on our way.
You have such a hard head.
We got it from here.
I see why you preferred jail.
Back up! Back up!
The alley!
A36, shots fired in the alley
off Hay Street and Concord.
In pursuit.
Man down.
Man down.
Suspect fleeing on foot.
A36 in pursuit
in an alley off Concord and Hay.
Heading southeast.
Clear right.
Clear right.
You got him?
Get out of my way!
Kids, out of here!
Everybody out of here now!
Get the kids out!
Get them out!
Go.
Go.
Go.
Out the door.
Go find your teacher.
Come on.
Come on.
Get out.
Go outside right now.
Go.
Go.
Go.
See there?
The trail leads right here.
You see?
We're clear here.
We're clear.
Come on.
A36 requests RA unit at our location.
Suspect down.
Gunshot wound to the neck.
Man, that is one big hole
in a very important spot.
Wouldn't you guys agree?
You are definitely not gonna make it.
Just head into the light, brother.
Right.
There is no light where he's headed.
Any last words?
You want to pray for forgiveness?
Go *** you.
That's an appropriate resting place
for that piece of ***.
I'll go check on the kiddies.
The guy next to me in the hospital
broke his neck like that.
- Just hold on.
- Flipped over a fire hydrant.
Okay.
Great.
Okay.
Great.
Truck Norris
will be on Franklin at 1:00.
- Truck Norris?
- Yeah.
I eat there on Wednesdays.
Filipino-Hawaiian fusion.
You're gonna love it.
- How's the pastrami?
- Just try not to embarrass yourself.
Why'd you get this crap detail,
babysitting the guy just back
from *** the pine?
I requested you.
- Why's that?
- I got tired of getting hit on.
Heard you wouldn't be a problem.
Really?
Yeah.
Knew you were squared away.
Why?
You plan on groping my thigh?
- Maybe.
- This thing is hard as a rock.
Sir, calm down,
or I'm gonna call over those cops.
Someone's had too much coffee.
Jesus.
You seeing this?
Disgusting habit.
He's screwing up the crime scene.
- It's not a big a deal.
Let it go.
- What are you talking about?
Get out of here.
Get out of here!
Just letting the animals be animals.
You sure we're handling this right?
Excuse me?
I mean, shouldn't we,
you know, secure the area,
keep it free of debris?
What, this is a whodunit?
'Cause I thought, Pookie did it,
or whatever that ***'s name is
you just found facedown in the potty.
And D-Rock here.
Whoever he was
D-Rock did it to him.
Well, I think we just solved it.
How about leads in other homicides?
He's on the job 30 seconds,
he's in my face?
He's just a little enthusiastic.
Cut him a little slack.
I'm just asking questions.
Not to mention, you know, he's
he's right.
Right.
'Cause he quotes a *** manual?
Come on, man.
Not here.
Not now.
Columbo, you want to tape off 10 blocks,
you knock yourself out.
A36.
Show us code 6
in the alley off Concord and 8th.
She was always real organized.
In high school, she was President.
That was Letitia Maguire.
And was she hot.
Especially when she ran track.
All the guys wanted her.
But they was worried, too.
She was gonna break them right in half.
We barely even spoke in high school,
and that's not the way it was.
You get me smokes?
Yeah.
I got you smokes.
Look, Danell,
don't leave here for any reason.
You're supposed to stay right here
until the D.
A.
says where you can move.
Tell him I want far away this time.
Maybe even tropical.
Not gonna happen.
Don't need to be
a postcard or nothing.
Just want to finally see that ocean.
You've never seen the ocean?
Except on TV.
I want to speak to the Watch Commander
and try to get Ferguson off the unit.
- For what, bad hygiene?
- The guy's done.
No, he's just done too much.
He knew that the detectives
weren't gonna waste
any time on that case.
The way he handled it,
why would they?
Listen,
you got to take it back a notch.
There's only 10,000 of us,
and it takes all kinds, okay?
- He's a pretty great cop in other ways.
- Yeah, right.
Seriously, man.
About a year ago,
we served a warrant,
had a bunch of *** in custody
when this baby gangster, little punk,
gets all up in my face.
I wasn't in the mood.
I was seriously about to pop him.
And Ferguson just looks at me.
He uncuffs the O.
G.
and has the O.
G.
shut him up instead.
And you're okay with that?
Better than me getting into a scrape
or having these punks file a complaint.
A57, show us responding
to unknown trouble call.
Southwest corner
of Hollywood and El Centro.
Is that Cooper?
Is he back on patrol?
I heard he's riding with Pootie Tang.
Get out of town.
What do you say we go say hey to Coop?
I haven't seen him in a while.
Yeah.
All right.
Knuckleheads.
It's all fun and games
until someone's roadkill.
All right.
Fun's over.
Let's go.
Who's responsible for this?
Anyone?
It's empty.
Gonna shoot out the tires,
T.
J.
***?
I'd have to deal with F.
I.
D.
and all that paperwork.
No, thank you.
Hang onto these.
Let's hope the pins hold.
Nice work.
That's how you stop a car.
"Someplace tropical.
" Man.
Would the Club Med
in the Bahamas be okay?
She's a piece of work.
Sorry to drag you into this.
I go where you go.
Now, that's refreshing.
Tough partnership last go-round?
You could say that.
So, you were hot in high school.
She was "high" in high school.
And so was I.
So was I,
but I could still spot a pretty girl.
Now you're gonna bore me
with your stories of the glory days.
Trust me, they're not boring.
Adams.
What?
No, no, no.
Give me half an hour.
Danell just got grabbed up
at a drug bust in Compton.
She's claiming she's there as my C.
I.
What?
I hear they're interested in you
for Fast & Furious 6.
Hey, Bryant.
How you doing, man?
Great to see you.
- Heard you had a baby.
- Yeah, a boy, six months.
Good to have you back.
How's the back?
Never better.
Thanks.
Hey, boot.
P-2 now.
P-2.
Right.
I heard the department
had lowered their standards.
So
I should probably write this up.
We'll see you.
All right.
Keep an eye on the kid, Bryant.
- He could still step on his meat.
- All right.
I almost teared up back there,
watching you two have that reunion.
He looked good.
He looked clean.
You hear stuff.
Rumors.
You see this?
***.
Freeze!
Freeze!
I got the front.
I'll take the front.
A36 in pursuit of an ADW suspect
in the alley off the corner
of 113th and May.
Heading southeast.
Yo, what the ***!
Back up!
Back up!
What the *** you doing in my yard?
Go around ***!
That dude just *** a little boy.
Broke into his room
did it in front of his little sister.
That suddenly okay
in this neighborhood?
We good?
You gonna let me through
so I can hook this *** up?
Let him through.
Sir, stay right there.
Sir, stop.
Stop.
- A36, requesting an RA Unit
- It's all right.
- at 113th and Compton.
- It's gonna be fine.
Sir, just have you sit
on the curb for me, please.
It's gonna be all right, sir.
Great, 7 after, a few more minutes,
the line will be around the block.
Why don't you take a left on Yucca?
Never turn left on Yucca.
On Wednesdays or every day?
It bottlenecks at Hudson.
You want to sit in traffic?
- Got to be kidding me.
- Ignore it.
Ignore a possible D.
U.
I.
- So you can be firstat a taco truck?
- Yeah.
It's Hawaiian-Filipino fusion.
- I'm lighting him up.
- ***.
Sir, you've been, maybe,
doing a little partying this morning?
No drugs or alcohol for you today?
- You sure about that?
- Yes, I am.
You want to step out of the car?
You okay?
Yes, I'm fine.
Step to the curb.
Did I ask you to sit down?
- No, you didn't.
- No, I didn't, did I?
All right, sir.
Okay.
You got any tampons on you today?
Tam Huh?
You're not maybe, transporting them
for a friend or something?
See, the reason I ask is,
in that case
What's this?
That's my girlfriend's?
Yeah?
- Your girlfriend's?
- Yeah.
Your girlfriend's ***?
It's weird, I know.
She lets you carry tampons
behind your ears?
- In emergency situations.
- Can we see your I.
D.
, please?
She's 14 years old,
and he's her mom's boyfriend.
She stayed home sick from school.
Her mom went to work,
and then this prick jumped her.
Another innocent wrongly targeted.
She fought him off
before he could *** her,
then he ran into the street,
and you know.
It hurt his feelings, sure.
Who wouldn't pound out of her?
Where's the ambulance?
If this was Beverly Hills,
it'd be here by now!
If this were Beverly Hills,
this would be a big deal.
- Step back, please.
- Come on, man.
Don't make it worse.
Help him!
CPR or something!
You want to give him mouth-to-mouth,
step right up, huh?
He's gonna bleed out
before the paramedics get here.
And your point is, Columbo?
I don't think
we should let him do that.
Dalai Lama with a gun and badge.
- Every life is precious.
- I'm getting the kit.
- Life is precious.
- *** off.
He's just figuring it all out,
you know?
I'm busting his chops.
Really, officer Sherman?
Doing all we can.
We'll get him stabilized.
Not too tight, all right?
All right.
Thank you.
You came back here to score.
- And I told you to stay put.
- I just wanted a little taste.
I ain't hooked on it, Lydia.
And that's "needing protection"?
When they busted in,
I was headed back to that motel.
You told them you were my C.
I.
So that everybody here can hear you.
Think, Danell.
Think!
- I know.
I screwed up.
- Twice.
Twice, I tried to help you.
I'm the reason
why you're not gonna jail.
I know.
And appreciate it.
- That's what friends do.
- We are not friends, okay?
- But, then, the trial
- You were paid for information.
You weren't a citizen coming forward.
You weren't my friend.
Things been rough on me, okay?
Danell, I grew up 10 blocks from here,
same as you!
Don't you tell me about it
getting rough around here!
You know what?
Here's money for a bus ticket
back to Lancaster.
If I find out you spent it on crack,
I'll make sure you go away.
And it's not gonna be
someplace tropical.
If the D.
A.
decides to move you,
which I doubt,
I'll have him be in touch with you.
Now get on the bus.
The bus, Danell!
Look what the cop dragged in.
Fools should have been here.
You wouldn't be staring at 30 min wait.
First time here,
I'd go for the pork belly.
They soak it all night in lemon,
and they stuff it with sesame seeds
and cabbage.
It's unbelievable.
Hey, pootie!
Get to the front of the line.
You're a celebrity.
They've seen your Youtube video.
Just jump the line.
Sends a bad message to the community.
They'd rather have us wait
while their houses
We'll wait like everybody else.
A57, employee reports a possible jumper
at the Nytex corporation,
6600 Kolmar at Pratt.
- Available to handle?
- No.
It's our area.
What?
It's not a crime to kill yourself.
A57, Show us responding.
The truck will be gone
by the time we get back.
Sayonara, 57!
You come back next time
for happy ending!
I'll show you a *** happy ending.
What are her injuries?
Broken nose, collarbone
Not great, but she'll be okay.
Don't quit your day job.
These bandages
are about as tight as alady's nightie.
I didn't want to move him too much.
Risk of paralysis.
He wakes up en route,
he might need an emergency spinal tap.
Yeah, with an aids-infected needle.
Hang on.
I got to cuff him to the gurney.
Keep your cuffs clean, man.
He's dead.
Milsap, come on down, buddy!
No nobody leaves, or I will jump!
M.
E.
U.
says he's got a history,
extreme paranoia.
- He likes to go off his meds.
- Shrink?
On the way.
She said to keep him talking.
Been trying
to fire this guy for months, but no.
Lawyers keep saying
we need a paper trail in case he sues!
I need you to calm down.
I found their office pool
in the printer.
Every time Sandra goes out with me,
they put another 10 bucks in.
More dates, more dough.
Until Sandra wins the pot.
That's why she's
Where is this Sandra?
Could we get her to talk to him, maybe?
Materialistic ***!
If she existed.
The truck's long gone.
Mr.
Milsap, listen to me, all right?
- Yeah, all right.
- Listen to me.
Okay, I'm sure that Sandra likes you.
Okay, she is a woman.
They like to play games, okay?
But I'm telling you one thing
that I know for sure.
She is not gonna be impressed
if you hang yourself with pantyhose.
Mr.
Milsap?
Is he okay?
He does that sometimes.
We miss that truck,
I'm gonna go up and push him off myself.
No complaints so far
from the good citizens of Watts.
Looks like your shoddy first-aid skills
did the trick.
Nice work.
Give it a rest, Danny.
What do you say?
What?
No hard feelings, by the way.
No problem.
You want to let kids
play with a dead guy's body
deliberately taint a crime scene,
go for it.
You act like an ***, though,
we all look like ***.
'cause all people see is the uniform.
Spare me
the A.
C.
l.
U.
leftist ***.
That might play on the West side.
This is the South end.
Miss the memo?
- It's time to pick a side.
- I have a side.
I earn what they pay us.
And I do the job the way they taught us.
Is he for real?
The job is to shovel this city's ***
so the good people in this city
can pretend it ain't there.
That is what they pay us for,
all right?
You're gonna figure that out.
Or, trust me, you ain't gonna last.
Hopefully, you'll be working security
at rite aid, so
*** you!
Back off!
- Get back!
- Get the *** out of my face.
Both of you, spread out.
Come on.
- Shrink says maybe 10 min.
- Tell her he's getting more agitated?
She said give him answers
that we think he wants to hear.
Was that Sandra on the phone?
Is she coming or what?
Listen, Mr.
Milsap.
We told you.
It's Sandra's day off.
I know her schedule, all right?
I just want to know, is she coming?
I know you know her schedule.
She's coming.
It's gonna take her in traffic.
Did she say "sorry" on the phone?
Is that
what you're waiting for
for her to apologize?
- Then you'll come down?
- Yeah.
So, was she sorry?
Yes, absolutely.
Very, very sorry.
- She said that?
- She did.
She did.
Sandra's always been a liar.
***!
Hang on, Mr.
Milsap!
Man, this thing is slow.
Hang on, Mr.
Milsap!
Truck just left downtown.
Going to Rancho Cucamonga.
- I was too *** Danell?
- She have any family you can talk to?
- Maybe they can help.
- Her mom's dead,
and her brother's upstate.
Her dad Who knows.
- No kids?
- No, thank God.
- You think she'll go back to Lancaster?
- I hope so.
I tried to scare her.
Hell, you scared me,
and I fought the Taliban.
You know what, people have a choice,
no matter what hand you're dealt.
You can either rise above or drown.
The choice is yours.
Can't nobody make it for you.
Big party tonight in Castaic.
Coker from shooting Newton.
- You should come check it out.
- Mostly cops, right?
And girls That's the beauty.
- Yeah, I think I'll pass, thanks.
- Sure.
Why get drunk and laid
when you can hear a guy play a zither
and maybe drink some Turkish coffee
and sniff some patchouli
or whatever the hell you do.
Gun! Gun!
Hey, ***!
He's down! He's down!
You're all right.
We've got an RA unit on the way.
Over here!
Got officers down!
- Stay with me.
- Need assistance!
Hold on.
Hold on.
Bryant?
Bryant, you okay?
- Yeah.
You?
- Yeah.
Need assistance!
Need an RA unit!
You're okay.
You're all right.
Got an RA unit on the way.
You all right?
Want a towel or something?
No, I'm all right, man.
- You all right?
- Yeah.
Yeah.
My neck, it's like, in a vise.
Like I hit it on something.
Man.
I pissed myself.
- ***.
- Me, too.
Did you hear about Ferguson?
His vest saved his ***, man.
The face shot went through-and-through.
But he's gonna be all right.
Faloona and Alcala? Kang?
Alcala took the worst of it.
They're in surgery.
You know how that goes.
Jesus.
Ferguson, man.
That was crazy.
He's brave.

I.
D.
guy wants
to get your statements and your guns.
Yeah.
I'll get right on that.
Any word on who the shooter was?

Sir, license and registration
and proof of insurance, please.
*** you.
License, registration,
and proof of insurance, please, sir.
Please step out of the car.

Step to the back of the trunk.
Put your hands on the trunk
and spread your legs.
Spread them wider.
Get off!
Officer Officer needs help!

- Yeah.
And I was stupid.
I should have kept my distance.
Kept him in my sight line.
- I'm gonna drive tomorrow.
- No.
Not yet.
- You got nothing to prove to me.
- It's not about you.
How'd I do today?
What do you mean?
I'm sure they told you to tell them

Any conclusions so far?
We'll see how tomorrow goes.
All right?

busting a crack pad around 114th,
reported a woman getting shoved
into a blinged-out escalade.
This one matches her description.
Guess she finally got a chance
to see the ocean.
