Previously on "The Rookie"...

Detective Harper, did you tell my client

I will find a way to hang these murders around your neck

and lock you away forever?

As an officer of the court,

I have no choice but to report your conduct

with Glasser to Internal Affairs.

You should go to D.C.

- John... - No, I mean it.

We are strong enough to navigate the separation,

and you really want it.

7-Adam-15 and Adam-300 to monitor.

10-67 in the alley at 4th and Cole.

Woman covered in blood, pounding on doors.

7-Adam-15, code six.

Any more information from the 911 call?

No, just a bloody woman in distress.

Guys, we got blood here.

Adam-300, requesting additional units.

Copy that, Adam-300. Additional units en route.

No!

Easy, easy.

Got you. Get the med kit!

Request RA. Female victim, multiple stab wounds.

- Copy. - You'll be all right.

We have an ambulance on the way.

Jordyn.

Jordyn? Is that who hurt you?

Jordyn.

Adam-300, be advised that van is involved.

Control, we have another victim in a van.

Hey, I... I'm sorry for inviting myself over like this.

No, no, no, no.

James has the school run this morning, so I'm all good.

- Thank you. - Show me.

So Jordyn Sharpe, Courtney Sutton,

best friends since Palms Middle School.

No criminal records, no fixed address.

Jordyn's parents say that they were taking a year off

to do the whole van life thing,

trying to chart a path post-college.

Is there an early theory on why they were brutalized?

According to Border Control,

they were going back and forth to Baja, Mexico.

Six times just this year.

- So drug mules? - Yeah.

Pretty girls with clean records.

That is a cartel's dream.

Border Patrol just waves them through.

Yeah. I mean, young women like this with the confidence

to just go out into the world

and deal with whatever it hands them,

they're usually pretty naive about the world.

I know I was.

Hold up. You were #VanLife?

I dropped out of grad school

and took a little bit of time to find myself.

Huh.

I spent nine months showering outdoors

and eating roadside burritos.

Mm, OK, we are gonna put a pin in that conversation.

Any clue on who they could be muling for?

You know, there are social media posts.

Where is it? Yeah, OK.

It said that they spent a lot of time in Scorpion Bay.

That is Costa Sangre's territory.

Well, that explains the brutality of the murders.

Cartel was trying to send a message.

I mean, but why?

Could be a dozen reasons.

They screwed up, they stole,

they were in the wrong place at the wrong time.

Nyla, defensive wounds like this?

They fought like hell to survive.

I mean, the last thing Courtney did

was try to just get her friend help.

It's...

I know they made mistakes,

but they did not deserve to die like this.

- This is crazy. - No, they didn't.

I want in on this.

Yeah?

And you charged your headphones?

Yes.

And you remembered to pack everything?

Yep.

Your night guard?

Nope. Oh, gosh.

And contact lens solution.

Dang it!

How did you know exactly what I'd forget?

You've never once remembered in all our travels.

- Really? - Yeah.

I've learned to ask

for contact lens solution in four languages.

Are you gonna do OK?

Yeah, I'm fine.

We are gonna be fine.

We're gonna be better than fine.

This is a trial run. It's five days.

I'm gonna go look for an apartment,

meet the new team.

I'm not moving-moving until the end of the month.

The car is here.

I gotta go.

- I love you. - I love you.

- Here you go. - OK.

- Bye. - Bye.

No, it's a nonstarter.

Look, you want to call down the wrath of God

on Costa Sangre in LA, I'm all-in.

But an undercover op with Lucy in Mexico?

Forget it. We got no jurisdiction.

TID found a cigarette pack in the weeds under the van.

Mexican packaging.

And the girls don't smoke.

Finding a pack of Mexican cigarettes in LA

is not out of the ordinary.

Yeah, but there are other key forensics

that also point to Mexico.

And the murders were gruesome, even for the cartel.

If that was done by a local,

the streets would be buzzing, and I have heard nothing.

I don't need your buy-in.

I need your support to go to Grey.

I hear the Monica Task Force

is targeting Costa Sangre's boss, Rogelio Zambada.

OK, those women were low-level drug mules.

You're gonna have to climb two miles of food chain

to get to Zambada.

And why isn't Lucy here with you pushing for this?

She wants this approved on its merits

without the girlfriend factor.

But she will use it if you say no to me.

Have you heard back from IA?

I got my notice of intent,

but the hearing has not been scheduled.

And if you are implying that I'm using this

as a way to delay my showdown with Internal Affairs...

No, I'm wondering why you're spearheading the mission

when you made it very clear over the last four years

that you were done with long-term undercover work

after it pretty much destroyed your life.

When I was working undercover with the cartels,

I knew so many girls

that either ended up missing or dead,

and nobody cared.

If IA takes my badge, at least I know

that I spent the last of my time here

trying to get justice for these two women.

OK. That's my answer.

So you'll support us going to the task force?

- Yeah. - And?

And I will find the resources to cover it.

But none of this matters if Grey

- says... - No.

Zambada's not a front burner target.

And even if I believe

that you had a shot at getting close to him,

Garza's not going to divert focus from our current targets.

He will if you ask him.

Sir, if you don't say yes,

we both know that these murders will go unsolved.

Careful, Sergeant.

I've seen plenty of tragedy on this job.

I don't need a lecture on justice.

With all due respect, sir, I...

you... you have never been these girls.

You have never experienced the particular type of pain

and fear that they went through,

how brave they had to be to go out into the world

knowing how treacherous it is simply because they're female.

And yeah, how that bravery and naivete caused them to be

vulnerable to the cartel.

I... I'm not excusing their criminality.

I just...

it shouldn't have cost them their lives.

When you're looking back on your deathbed...

y... no, sorry.

Sir, the politics and the bureaucracy of this

will not matter.

What will matter is that you stood up for these women.

Well...

So much for not lecturing me.

OK, let's say I'm on board.

What's this gonna cost the task force?

Very little.

Tim can get us the funding and the physical resources.

The only thing we need is one FBI agent

to give the op legitimacy with the Mexican government,

preferably someone who speaks Spanish.

- What? - So Bailey on her way to D.C.?

Yeah, her flight left 20 minutes ago.

So you won't mind if I loan you to Lopez

for a surveillance assignment.

No, whatever she needs.

All right, we're good. You want to fill them in?

Sure.

Man of the hour is Keshaun DeMarco,

otherwise known as Hamster,

but don't let the cute nickname fool you.

Keshaun has an affinity for brute force trauma

that he's parlayed into a growing leg-breaking business.

Last week, he assaulted two witnesses

in a RICO case I'm trying.

Almost caused a mistrial.

We have a warrant for his arrest,

but he's gone off the grid.

I got round-the-clock surveillance authorized

on several of his haunts.

I need you and your rookie to post up

outside his baby mama's house, Kennedy Stowe.

Whoa.

Try not to let the impressive front porch

distract you from the fact that

Kennedy threw a classmate through a window

in high school.

She's hot and dangerous.

Officer Penn, this assignment could last

until you're scheduled to graduate the FTO program.

You'll be under a microscope until it's complete.

Yes, sir. Won't let you down.

Six hours. No one's come in or out.

Well, if Hamster was easy to find,

Lopez wouldn't have half the station on it.

You know, quit looking for the hot mama sighting

and widen your focus a little bit.

It'll give your eyes a rest

and you'll learn about the neighborhood.

That's a roll call.

It looks like random letters and numbers,

but it's a list of gang members.

The numbers stand for letters in the alphabet.

Exactly.

Simple code, but it can give you a lot of information.

Most of the numbers up there are 14 and 2.

14 for N, 2 for B means Noho Boys.

- Hamster's gang. - Exactly.

Means he feels safe here. He feels he's amongst friends.

So he'll be back.

In Sugarland, I knew things.

Like if you saw Misty Foreman packing up the kids

to take to her mother's,

meant her husband, Karl, was dealing again.

But it's different here.

So much going on at once,

I... I feel like I'm running behind.

I keep thinking I should hit some neighborhood hangouts

in my off-hours.

You know, keep a low profile

and get a better feel for what's... what's going on.

OK, that's a bad idea.

Not only is it inherently unsafe,

but it's against regulations.

Don't go policing in your off-duty hours.

All right. Relief is here.

I'll do a deep dive into the Noho Boys database tonight.

Great.

I'm gonna make a cheesesteak and watch "Commando,"

two things Bailey hates.

El Mezquital campsite.

This is where Courtney and Jordyn

spent their time in Baja.

I pulled previous satellite imagery

for the last six months.

There's obviously a lot of camper turnover,

but a few of the vehicles have been there the whole time.

Understood.

Receipts from Jordyn's van show that they bought Ozempic

from a local farmacia

and sold it across the border for a hefty profit.

We think this is how the cartel targeted them

as potential mules.

So we'll follow in their footsteps.

Hopefully, they'll see us as equally easy targets.

Great. Let's talk undercover personas.

The bureau cyber unit has the ability

to launch social media pages for each of you

that appear to go back over several years.

And they will hold up to a metadata check?

- Yeah. - Score.

All right, so I have one.

My name is Xia Sun, but I go by Shy.

I was born in Chicago.

I went to Kansas City Art Institute,

where I got a degree in fiber arts.

I sold a couple of pieces, but I realized

that there wasn't much money

to be had in textile sculpture.

I met the love of my life two years ago,

and we've been joined at the hip ever since.

And I am that love of her life, Avery Reid.

I was raised in Alaska

but hated every frigid moment of it,

so I left and went to California

at the age of 18 and never looked back.

Surfing is my passion.

I work odd jobs, but never really wanted a career.

I just wanted enough cash to chase the endless summer.

It'll be four weeks.

Minimum. I...

I don't know. You just moved in.

I mean, i-it's like you're already moving out.

You could think of it as an excuse

to play your video games at full volume all weekend.

OK, you make my life sound so empty.

No, no, no, no. OK, OK.

How about this?

The longer I'm gone,

the happier you'll be when I come back.

- Hmm? - Mm.

Hey, sweetie, Mommy's gotta go now.

OK. Leah.

Yes?

Remember Mommy said

I was gonna have to leave for a little while?

You'll be back?

I will be back, yes, as soon as I can, OK?

OK.

- I love you. - I love you.

Mommy, more juice, please.

OK.

- Can you? - Yeah.

Thank you.

What are you drawing?

One.

Hey.

Hey, the van is gassed up and ready to go.

OK, let's do this.

I'll let you guys say goodbye.

I want you to know it is a tribute

to your excellent mothering that she is so secure.

OK.

- You got this. - OK.

- I love you. - I love you too.

All right, come on.

I know, I know.

- It'll be worth it. - OK.

You ready?

Yeah.

Lord, I wish we had something to do out here.

You keep drinking all that coffee,

you'll have something to do, all right.

Why are you so tired, anyway?

I've been up nights studying,

trying to get inside Hamster's world.

This could be him.

7-Adam-15. Possible suspect sighting.

Send backup to 3200 Falk Drive.

Hey.

That's him.

Let him get inside.

Cop! Run!

Stop! Police! LPD! He's running!

7-Adam-15, foot and vehicle pursuit.

Eastbound over fences behind 3200 Falk Drive.

Suspect all in black.

Hey!

Suspect heading south toward Santa Monica Boulevard.

Suspect entering Beachwood Car Wash!

Whoa!

- Where'd he go? - How the hell should I know?

You're the one who had eyes on him.

I don't know how... how I lost him.

He was right in front of me, then...

Why did you go in after him?

You should have just held the perimeter on the back side.

I know. I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

All right, Jen, you guys, backtrack where we came from,

see if you can track him down.

You guys circle around the back side of the building.

I'm gonna wait out here in the front.

7-Adam-15, we're code 4, suspect unaccounted for.

Get in the car, Bubbles.

Forget police tactics.

It's a failure of common sense.

Yes, sir. There's no excuse.

Maybe if you hadn't been burning the midnight oil

playing Noho catch-up, you could have focused better.

And now Hamster knows we're up on his spots,

he's gonna burrow deeper underground.

I should ask Harper to keep an eye out for him

in case he makes a run for Mexico.

Man, I used to love this.

Heading into the great unknown after I bailed on grad school.

Suddenly, it was like anything could happen.

Life was just pure possibility.

Why did you drop out?

OK, so one day,

I was talking to a professor about career paths,

and suddenly my heart just started beating so fast,

I couldn't breathe.

I had no idea what was going on.

You were having a panic attack.

Yeah, it felt like somebody had turned the lights on,

and I could see all of my choices in this entire chain.

And... and at the start,

my parents were just acting like

if I didn't get an advanced degree,

I would end up homeless.

So two Dr. Chens weren't enough?

They wanted three?

- Five, actually. - Ooh.

My... my dad's parents were doctors too.

Really?

Anyways, that panic attack made me realize

that I hadn't ever really made a choice for myself.

I was just always doing what they wanted,

so yeah, I... I bailed.

Yeah, you know, I had issues with my parents,

but they always only ever wanted me to be me,

and all I wanted was to be a cop.

You know, Nyla, I know about the IA investigation.

If you want to...

Yeah, that is Nyla's business.

You... you know what Avery is focused on?

Sick swells and cold beer?

Yes.

And finding the next song in our perfect road trip playlist.

Ooh.

- Yeah. - Are you ready, Avery?

Ready, Shy.

Ooh.

Oh, wow. It's so nice here.

Why haven't we come here before?

Hey, new faces.

I like it. I'm Chase.

Hi. Avery.

- She's Shy. - Hey.

Shy?

Hope not.

What brings you to Baja?

- Hello. - I mean, it's gorgeous.

I feel that.

I thought you said we'd be able to hear them.

One sec. Shotgun mic needs fine-tuning.

Well, you came to the right place.

Perfect beach break.

Do you surf?

You know, mostly I fall.

But I keep trying, though.

Juarez, check in.

You know, when I volunteered for this,

I thought I was gonna be Nolan and Bailey in Prague,

not me in a ditch fighting a losing battle

against bugs and snakes.

Yeah, well, you should have read the fine print.

Yeah.

So anyway, it's a pretty chill group,

but if anyone gives you trouble,

just let me know.

We will. Thank you.

- Yeah. - Thank you.

Oh, we do a drum circle by the fire every night.

- You should join. - Great.

That sounds fun.

Really?

I mean, for Avery.

- You're gonna hate it. - Yeah, I am.

Dude, I am too close to graduation

to mess up this badly.

I... I gotta make it right.

By doubling down on your screw-up?

Trust me, I am the poster child for that kind of behavior,

and that, that is the wrong way to go.

Just own your mistake.

Save going rogue until it's harder to get fired for it.

Rogue? It's not going rogue.

It's kind of going rogue.

It's just some unpaid OT watching a baby mama all night.

What's in it for me?

Other than the satisfaction of helping a friend?

OK, if something comes from it, I'll cut you in on the credit.

It'll help smooth your path back into the FTO program.

And what if it all goes wrong?

Then you were never there. Easy.

OK.

- Cheers. - Cheers.

That's the house.

Do you really think this guy Hamster's gonna be coming back?

Nope.

But I'm hoping she'll get a late-night booty call

and lead us straight to him.

I can't sleep.

Yeah, me neither.

You did this for fun for nine months?

Worse... I lived in a hatchback,

so I actually had to pitch a tent every single night.

Yeah, James wants to go

on a family camping trip, and I am just not sure

that our marriage can survive that.

Well, after everything you guys went through last year,

I feel like you guys are pretty battle-tested.

Mm, yeah.

You know, I was still scared to tell James

that I screwed up so badly with the Glasser case.

Did he lecture you about policing?

No, worse... he was completely on my side.

But you wanted to fight?

Jeez.

You know, it's easier to defend yourself

if you're being attacked, but there is no defending

telling someone you're gonna hang the case

around their neck when you have no evidence.

Nyla, he's a serial killer.

Yeah, and he might get away with it

because I let my emotions get in the way.

Wesley's got this.

Oh, well...

Glasser's going to prison for a very long time.

I hope so.

I think I'm getting good at this.

You actually do look like you know what you're doing

and you would be really good at this.

Stupid.

Who is this guy?

You know, I might keep my Etsy shop open

when this is done.

I think jewelry making is good for my mental health.

Mm-hmm.

Oh, it looks like we might have a nibble.

Hola, pretty ladies.

¿Cómo estás?

Bien, bien.

You girls are new at the campsite, right?

- Yeah. - Are you guys getting this?

I am Avery. This is Shy.

I don't recognize him from the campsite.

- Shy? - Could be cartel.

- Yeah, it's short for Xia. - We see him.

- Xia, it's Chinese. - Cool.

This jewelry is beautiful.

Do you sell those?

Mostly up north.

There's a farmers market in Malibu.

Lots of rich people out there to buy from you, right?

Yeah.

Rafael "Rafa" Navarro.

Mid-level lieutenant for Costa Sangre.

Did I see you girls last week at the farmacia in town?

It's possible we were over there.

Huh.

Maybe jewelry is not the only thing

you sell to rich ladies in Malibu.

Listen, we're not doing anything wrong.

No, of course not.

We're all allowed to earn a living, right?

It's your time, your effort,

your ability to buy cheap Ozempic here

and sell it for three times as much in the States.

Look, to be honest, I do the same thing.

Come on. Everyone here does it.

Only that...

I can't make it across the border this week.

Would you girls be interested in taking my shopping with you?

Come on, I can even have a friend

meet you to collect the pharma.

I... I don't know.

I mean, we just do it to afford our lifestyle, you know.

Of course, yes, and I'll be more than happy to contribute.

Let's say $1,500 U.S.

Hmm?

Come on.

We could get that laser welder.

Yeah?

Yeah?

Yeah.

- OK. - Excellent, excellent.

See, I told you, nothing illegal.

Just some local, low-price medicine to resell.

There is a number in the box.

Just call it when you land in Los Angeles,

and my friend come pick it up.

- Bye, girls. - Bye.

Did you see the...

Cigarettes? Yeah.

You think he's the one that killed Jordyn and Courtney?

Could be.

Maybe they tried to break free,

but he couldn't take the risk they'd tell someone

and blow up his whole operation.

All right, let's get moving.

We'll coordinate the handoff surveillance

with Tim on the way.

- Not a word. - I would never.

Oh, but, Tim?

- I hate you. - I know.

This is Alpha unit. They're landing.

Copy. Harper and Lucy are landing.

Here we go.

They're being filmed. Blue SUV.

Copy.

Alpha unit says the swap's being filmed by the blue SUV.

Silver sedan is exiting the parking lot.

Follow units, they're all yours.

Welcome to Astro Burger. Can I take your order?

No, but I've got something else you can take.

I'm a sucker for a man in uniform.

Easy.

We're on to the guys that you gave Rafa's drugs to

and the blue car recording the exchange.

To blackmail us.

That means we'll be making a trip

for the hardcore drugs next.

Any clarity on who killed Jordyn and Courtney?

- Maybe. - No.

Our cartel contact smokes the brand

- we found at the murder scene. - That's pretty weak.

Yeah, I know.

All right, back to it.

That'll be $10.70.

Thank you.

See you soon.

I'll be here.

Dude. Miles.

- Miles. - Mm?

It's been two weeks, man.

How much longer are we gonna do this?

You're already going above and beyond.

You can tap out anytime.

I'm not gonna leave you out here alone.

But this has... this has gotta be the last night.

Dude, you're... you're exhausted.

And you're pulling double duty.

The last thing that you want to have happen

is things go sideways on the job because you're a zombie.

You're right.

And I appreciate you for looking out.

And don't get me wrong, this has been really fun,

feeling relevant again and the whole thing.

That being said, I gotta pee.

You want anything from 7-Eleven?

God, no.

Come on, man, where you at?

You spying on my girl?

Nah, man, I'm just...

looking for bats.

But it's not a problem. I... I... I... I'll just dip.

How dumb do you think I am?

You're the cop that chased me through the car wash.

Get your ass out.

Reach for a piece, they'll be picking brains

out of the upholstery for weeks.

All right, all right.

Where's your gun?

It's under my jacket.

Take it out the holster.

Throw it into the gutter, carefully.

I can't leave a loaded gun on the street.

It's that, or I'll leave it there

attached to your dead body.

Now your phone.

We're gonna go for a little ride.

What are you doing?

- Getting rid of your problem. - You can't kill a cop.

Is he really dead if you never find a body?

Baby, you just can't... this is crazy.

- Baby, this is crazy. - Stop arguing.

Seth, what's going on?

Miles is in trouble.

Where is he?

We're outside of Kennedy's house.

Hamster came back, and he's got Miles.

What is he doing at Kennedy's house?

What are you doing there?

- I... - No, never mind.

Just... I'm on my way.

Do not engage.

911. What's your emergency?

This is Officer John Nolan.

I'm calling to report a kidnapping in progress.

Go back in the house, girl.

You called me out here.

What you think was gonna happen?

- Baby, this is crazy. - Stop arguing.

I'll call you in a couple weeks when the heat dies down.

Give me a kiss.

You got your cuffs on you?

- Yeah. - Cuff yourself.

Be smart here, Keshaun.

Killing a cop ain't it.

Get in, slide across.

Say another word, I'll knock out your fronts.

Hurry your ass up, man.

- Stay down. - Stay down.

- Get down. - Hands behind your head.

- Hands where we can see them. - OK, you got him?

The baby mama's in on it.

Let's get you out of here.

We're code 4.

Stay down!

- You OK? - Yeah, man, you saved my life.

No problem, man.

Need an RA unit at the in-progress kidnapping.

We're code 4.

He all right?

He got his bell rung. Nothing life-threatening.

Good. I don't have to wait to yell at him.

- Sir... - Shut up.

You were doing off-the-books surveillance

on a violent felon and you brought Ridley, a civilian?

- Wait, sir... - No one's talking to you.

Go to the hospital, get checked out.

When you're finished,

you get back to the station and clean out your locker.

You're done.

What were you thinking?

Oh, God.

Oh.

Ugh.

Hey, that was a quick turnaround.

Yeah, well, when paradise calls.

Baja is like a siren song.

That's what I always say.

And I am back in the ditch.

How long do you think before Rafa makes contact again?

Day or two.

Or now.

Heads up.

Yeah, I see him.

Hey, watch out for that guy.

Bad news.

Hey, take a walk. Gotta talk to the girls.

- Yeah, no problem. - Thank you.

Come on, girls, let's go.

Welcome back.

Mm? Any trouble?

No. It was good.

Glad to hear it.

I need you to make another run.

Right now, and a bigger package.

Thanks but no, thanks.

That was a one-time thing.

- I mean, we're set now. - Wrong.

Unless you want LAPD to see this,

you girls work for me now.

You would... you wouldn't do that.

Those are your... your men.

They're expendable.

Got a dozen more waiting in the wings.

No, we... we can't.

It's no different than last time.

You'll get waved through the border and meet my guys in LA.

OK, but there... there has to be a better way.

No, no, there's no better way.

There's no other way.

Open up the back.

Look at this.

Remember how I said there were a few vehicles

that never left the campsite?

When we landed here,

I asked Border Control to run all the license plates,

and Rafa didn't kill the girls.

This was taken three hours

after we found Jordyn and Courtney's bodies.

Chase was crossing back into Mexico.

All right, you know what? That's enough.

Get your asses in gear.

We're gonna follow you to the border

to make sure you don't chicken out.

What are you doing?

I'm talking to you.

Hi, Dad. I...

Daughter, Chase killed Jordyn and Courtney.

How you want to play this?

Give me a minute.

Let me just talk to my girlfriend for one second,

and we will go after that, OK?

Hey.

- Chase killed the girls. - What?

He must be working for a cartel.

Maybe Rafa?

I say we hold on arresting him and make the drug run to LA.

What? N... no.

This is major weight, which will make

for a bigger arrest on the other side.

No, Nyla, the whole point of us coming down here

was to get those two women justice.

It is the only thing that matters, right?

You're right.

You're right. I'm sorry. I...

No, don't apologize.

I got you. OK?

Come on. Hey, let's go. Hurry up.

Sorry, yeah.

OK, yeah.

Celina, we are closing the door.

- Please... - I hope you're ready.

We can't do this. I'm sorry.

Come on! Please!

And I'm out of the ditch.

Police! Get on the ground!

Policía. Manos arriba. Policía.

Put your hands on your head.

Don't move!

Wow, that was unexpected.

Yeah, you like that?

Yeah, you're gonna love this.

Get your hands up on that van right now.

- What? - Chase, you're under arrest

for the murder of Jordyn Sharpe and Courtney Sutton.

- What? - What?

You think we're here just to amuse ourselves

with the local drug trade?

We're here to get justice for the two women

- that you murdered. - Wait, hold on.

Arms behind your back.

I didn't kill anyone. The crew I...

The crew you what?

I'm just a spotter for a rival gang.

I tell them when Costa Sangre's moving a big package into LA,

and they steal it.

I never leave this beach!

He's lying.

We have you on camera at the border

coming to Mexico from their murders with blood on you.

They should have just let us rob them.

But they fought back, ripped my mask off.

I didn't want to do it, but I didn't have a choice.

They'd have given me up.

Don't look at me.

Don't look at me.

Can somebody get him out of here?

I'm s... I'm sorry.

No need.

Grey and Elena have it handled.

Yeah.

We can just hang out here, watch the water,

and feel our feelings.

Miles, hold on.

Sorry.

I wasn't in the mood to say goodbye.

Good, 'cause you'll only be gone for two weeks.

What?

In the light of day,

I convinced Sergeant Bradford to adjust your punishment.

Two weeks administrative leave,

followed by a six-month extension in the program.

Sir, thank you.

Don't get too excited.

A six-month extension is severe.

It'll be a significant black mark on your record,

one that'll hamper your career choices

moving forward in the department.

I understand.

And I truly appreciate you going to bat for me.

I wouldn't do it if I didn't think you were worth it, Miles.

You have the skills.

You know the job.

What you lack is the confidence.

Acting like a cowboy, that's just a cover.

Deep down, you worry that you're not worthy.

You think everyone else sees it the same way.

The only one who can change that mindset is you.

So I bought you six months.

Convince us you have the maturity needed.

Yes, sir. I... I won't let you down.

I know.

See you in two weeks.

Two weeks.

Here we are.

Home away from home.

Nyla, hey, thank you for letting me do this with you.

Are you kidding?

You were the perfect girlfriend.

Right back at you.

Aw.

Hey, everything's gonna be all right.

You're too good of a cop for IA to cut.

I hope you are right.

But thank you for saying that.

Yeah.

You see who it is?

Hi, baby.

- Hi. - Mom!

You OK?

Yeah. Just back to reality.

You know, whatever happens,

they cannot take away who you are.

Mm.

They definitely can't take away what we've built.

OK?

I love you too.

No, no.

At one point, Jean-Claude Van Damme

floats above the scene

and delivers a six-minute monologue.

And this is a good movie?

It's a perfect movie.

OK, if you say so, then I'm in.

- Miles. - Hey, you're back.

Yeah.

You OK?

Yeah.

I'm... I wasn't fired.

That was on the table?

Yeah.

OK, what happened?

I... I really messed up, Celina.

Oh, I'm sorry. You guys have plans, huh?

- I'll get out of your way. - No.

No, no, no. Stay.

You need cheering up,

and have I got the movie for you.

Movie night. I'll get the popcorn.

Van life Lucy sounds fun.

You couldn't handle van life Lucy.

Oh, look, I'm aware.

She definitely wouldn't have dated a cop.

Actually, that time in my life was mostly bad.

On the bright side, that's what led me to join the academy.

I think I just wanted to be that person

I didn't see around me, somebody who cared.

And then you got a training officer

who punished you for caring too much.

Yeah, but, you know, I won in the end.

Yeah.

Hey, I just got home.

I know.

I've been watching the security feed for the last hour.

I ordered you some things.

Boy, did you.

Flowers, cake, beer.

Well, I couldn't send myself,

so I ordered some of your other favorite things.

Well, flowers are really my favorite thing.

Well, it was very sweet.

Aw. I love you.

I love you too.

Now, it's late over there.

You should get to bed.

I know.

But first, we're gonna eat cake together.

Oh, baby.

They were out of chocolate?
