Original subtitles

- Mike's. End of discussion. - Modern.

And it is not even close.

Oh, here we go. The great cannoli war.

- Wait. Is that a thing? - Mike's is for tourists

and people who like to stand in line for no reason.

Modern is what people say when they want to feel sophisticated.

I'd arrest you right now if I could.

Oh, yeah? What's the charge?

Can we stop with the pastry foreplay?

Okay, okay, I have an idea.

Jonah and I'll hit up both bakeries,

we'll bring back samples, and we'll do a blind taste test.

We just got to take lunch early.

Oh, a blind taste test that involves us covering for you?

- Yeah, that's a nice try. - Science demands sacrifice, Steve.

Okay, it's gonna cost you, though.

Four extra cannolis. From Modern.

And chowder from Legal.

This becomes a debate about chowder, I quit.

No problem. Dispatch. 12-Jake-101.

- Show us off on a Code 10. - 12-Jake-101.

You're clear for a 10.12-David-101.

Respond to a B and E on a motor vehicle.

622 Brookside Street.

That's your sector.

Yeah. Why do people leave valuables in the glove box?

It'll take you ten minutes.

That's ten minutes I'm never gonna get back.

You're gonna owe us, Reagan!

We're bringing back cannolis. You're gonna owe us.

What are you gonna do about Friday? You know, Shabbat.

Can't avoid your mom forever.

- I'm not avoiding her. - Really?

- I am avoiding her. - Yeah, just a little bit.

I just don't want to upset us anymore, create more drama.

Right. Well, unfortunately,

I think that train has already left the station.

I mean, you already went and met your half sister.

Pretty soon, her husband's gonna tell her who you really are.

And I give it about ten seconds after that before she tells

her dad... your estranged father... about everything.

Well, my mom didn't want me upending the family,

finding my father. I think that's exactly what I've done.

You didn't do anything wrong.

You wanted to know where you come from, and rightly so.

You deserve to know that.

I think your family can handle this.

Maybe the real question is,

do you even want a relationship with your biological father?

I don't know.

Well, how about your half sister?

I don't know that either.

Seems like you're gonna have to figure it out pretty soon.

That I do know.

Last up, robbery-murder at Biddy Doyle's.

Two teens looking to score on the biggest

- keno night in the city. - This is the one

with the two brothers... 17 and 14 years old?

Shot and killed the manager and a patron.

The older brother killed them.

The younger one was the unarmed lookout.

He never went inside.

I'm the chief of Homicide, Mae.

I know the facts of the crime.

He's still on the hook for felony murder.

I say we indict them both

and then deal with the age issue in the plea offers.

The older brother said that he coerced

the younger one into it, and the younger one

- didn't even know about the gun. - That's the beauty

of felony murder. Doesn't matter what he knew.

Well, it matters to me.

So let's just indict the younger brother

with involuntary manslaughter in juvenile court.

Mae, the kid did an adult crime.

He's 14 years old, he's a straight A student.

- He tested into Boston Latin. - Okay, so what does that have...?

I made my decision.

You're the boss.

It's always the same with this guy.

- He's so entitled. - He's a Longfellow.

There's a bridge in the city named after his family.

Well, I'm the Suffolk County district attorney.

Shouldn't I be entitled?

- Maybe even just a little bit? - Speaking of

being the D.A., the filing deadline for the election

is Friday, and you haven't signed and filed your paperwork.

Well, I've been a little busy running this office.

- And you're doing a very good job. - Mm-hmm.

Which is why no one is running against you.

So, as much as you hate the politics...

I hate the fundraising and the glad-handing.

Sign, go to the cocktail parties,

make the small talk. It'll be painless.

Liar.

Anyway, enough about Penny.

Rachel, huh? You like her.

I mean, we've been on two dates.

No, man. No one smiles like that over cannolis.

Smiles like what? I was barely smiling.

You know what I mean.

You were like a golden retriever.

Ears back, tail wagging, big sloppy grin.

- So... - Yeah.

12-David-101. Shots fired.

My partner's hit. Need immediate assistance and push EMS!

That's Rachel and Steve. That's the B and E they just took.

- Go, go, go. - Come on!

622 Brookside Street.

622 Brookside Street. Sending a supervisor

and additional units.

12-Jake-101. Show us responding.

Copy that, 12-Jake-101.

He can't breathe.

- He's choking on his blood. - I got it.

- You've been shot. Are you okay? - I-I'm okay.

- You good? - Yeah, yeah, I'm fine.

12-Jake-101. I'm on scene at 622 Brookside.

- Stay with me, buddy. - We've got an officer down.

- He's been shot in the chest. - Look at me, Steve.

- It's Webster, and he's bad. - Look at me... come on.

- We need EMS immediately. - Hey, stay with me, buddy.

- What happened? - A guy waved us down.

Before we could get out,

he walked up to the window and shot Steve.

- And then he shot me and-and just ran. - What'd he look like?

White, medium build, gray hoodie, ran west.

Go! We got this! Stay with me, buddy.

Stay with me, buddy.

Come on, man. Hey, Steve, look at me.

Hey! Keep breathing, Steve.

- Where the hell is EMS? - Stay with me.

Hey, look at me. Stay with me!

We don't have time for EMS!

Come on.

Steve, Steve, stay with me.

12-Jake-101. I've got eyes

on a potential suspect heading west on Exeter Street. I'm engaging.

10-4, Jake-101.

Operations, Jake-101 has the air.

Jake-901, are you monitoring?

Jake-901.

I'm on the air and monitoring.

Pursuit authorized.

Get me an update on the injured officer. Where is he?

We couldn't wait for EMS. Injuries are too severe.

We got him in the back of our squad car.

We're heading to Boston General now.

10-4, Jake-101.

Hey, you got to move! You got to move now!

- Hey, how's Sean and Jonah? - Jonah's with Rachel.

Sean is getting checked out. They're fine.

Tell me you have something.

Witnesses confirm the shooter just walked right up

and shot into the car.

Shell casings appear to be a Glock 23.

And he didn't say a word, so we don't know what his motive was.

Actually, we might have some idea.

"BPD is a corrupt machine. No honor."

"Thin blue line is bent."

"Department is unfit to collect Boston's trash."

- Is this a manifesto? - It was delivered this morning.

We sent it to Forensics and Intelligence.

- Nothing back yet. - What's the significance of 2172?

It's the number of active-duty police officers

- in the department. - Danny.

We found this at the crime scene, too.

"1 of 2172," and, "2 of 2172."

Same number.

Oh, my God.

Somebody's hunting cops.

- Look at me, Steve. - Sean?

Stay with me, buddy.

Look at me, Steve!

Stay with me!

We don't have time for EMS!

Sean?

Sean?

Are you okay?

Why don't you let me take Steve's things from you.

Steve. Is he... is he okay?

He's in surgery still.

We're hoping for the best.

I tried to... I tried to save him. There was so much blood.

I'm sure you did everything you could, son.

I tried to save him.

I tried.

When you got out of the car, did you engage the shooter?

No. He ran west on Cornwall.

Okay. Did you see him leave anything?

I...

I don't know. I'm sorry.

I think she needs a minute.

Take your time, all right?

You get well soon.

I'll be right back, okay?

It's gonna be all right.

You two should go home, get some rest.

- Boss? - Hmm?

Not for nothing, but if we send them home, they could spiral.

Yeah. Maybe they should ride with us.

Okay. But keep me posted.

Will do. You two, with us.

Excuse me?

Are you the ones who helped Steve?

I'm Talia. I'm his wife.

I just wanted to...

...thank you.

Talia, I'm Superintendent Sarah Silver.

Your husband is one of ours, and so are you.

We're gonna find the man who did this.

We're gonna throw everything we have at this.

We're on a citywide tactical alert.

Days off are now canceled and we're going on

12-hour emergency shifts, and no one goes out there alone.

What about the calendar?

Ceremonies and events will go forward.

Including the medal ceremony tomorrow.

I'm not gonna let this bastard deter us.

Detectives Silver and Reagan are leading the task force.

Please brief the chief.

We're canvassing witnesses and CCTV.

- No leads yet. - And no prints on the manifesto.

The writing is rambling, it's grievance-heavy.

"Everyone is a suspect except you,"

"Anyone who doesn't play by the narrative gets erased,"

"You've made me a ghost."

No coherent motive.

What about the 911 call?

911. What's the address of the emergency?

622 Brookside Street. My car's been broken into.

I think the guy's still in the neighborhood.

- Looks like a setup. - Because there were

no cars broken into nearby.

Have the voice analyzed and logged into the system.

If he calls again, we'll know.

- What else? - Um...

Officer Yolande's body cam footage.

This our guy?

No, just... hold on, sir.

Just-just let us get out of the car.

Steve. Steve, are you okay?

Steve.

Steve, talk to me.

Steve!

- This is our suspect. - Do we have authorization

to use facial recognition software?

You do.

No matches.

Release this image to the public and set up a tip line.

- Anything else? - Officer Silver got

a partial plate from the getaway car.

We were able to get six possible matches.

He and I will run them down.

Officer Reagan and I will be working the manifesto.

I want regular updates.

Dismissed. Be careful out there.

Yes, sir.

I read Yolande's statement.

She's lying about not engaging the shooter.

- She had a shot. - Hold on,

we don't know the whole story yet.

What did we just see? She froze.

And now there's a cop killer on the loose.

Let I.A. investigate.

If we go after her now, the entire department will think

that she is responsible for her partner's shooting.

It would be terrible for morale.

Fine. But if she froze, she doesn't belong in BPD.

This our guy?

No, just... hold on, sir.

Just-just let us get out of the car.

How you holding up?

- I'm fine. - I've been down this road before, son.

You don't talk about your feelings,

they're only gonna feel worse.

The last thing I need right now is a cop lesson.

Check this out. This phrase,

"Corruption isn't the flaw, it's the foundation"?

I've seen it three times in the manifesto.

It's popping up on an anti-cop subreddit.

- Can you get a list of people saying it? - Yep.

- Right there. - "Badge_Breaker-10"?

He's used that phrase 284 times.

And he's the moderator of the sub. He originated

the phrase and he's the one who's been using it the most.

Let's reach out to Reddit and find this guy.

Sir, just let us...

Just let us get out of the car.

Steve.

Steve, are you okay?

Steve, talk to me.

Lena asked if you engaged the shooter.

Why didn't you tell her you had a shot?

Because I didn't remember it.

I just remember Steve getting hit, and trying to help him.

So, you don't remember getting out of the car?

No.

It's just a blank.

Wait, Jonah, why did you show me that?

The chief saw it.

He thinks I froze?

Does everyone think I froze?

- Oh, my God, did I freeze? - Hold on.

Hold on, let's watch the video again,

and just try to remember something.

Okay.

Turn it up?

I remember now.

Steve couldn't breathe.

And Jonah, that's my partner.

I heard him choking, and that's all I cared about.

What do you got?

None of the six matches from the partial plate

are registered to the getaway vehicle, but one of the plates was stolen.

The owner noticed it on her morning run.

There is no doorbell or security footage,

but the car is a Lexus with external security cameras.

- Motion-activated? - 360-degree views.

So, hopefully, it saw the person that was stealing the plate.

Owner's sending over the footage now.

- Good work. What about you guys? - Sean flagged a phrase

repeated multiple times in the manifesto.

It came back to the moderator of an anti-police subreddit.

We reached out to Reddit, they gave us an I.P. address and a name: Lonnie Fisk.

- You get an RMV photo? - He doesn't have

- a driver's license. - Has to be our guy.

He's a person of interest for now.

Pick him up at his last known, quietly.

You think I shot a cop because I used a certain phrase?

It's your catchphrase, Lonnie. You came up with it.

That a bunch of other people took and ran with.

Look, I might be "defund the police," but I'm not "kill the police." I'm a vegan!

Okay, well, let's just look at some of your other

greatest hits, then, shall we, Lonnie?

"Every system that relies on fear

needs to learn what that fear feels like."

"The system doesn't need better cops, it needs fewer cops."

Sounds pretty threatening to me.

I never advocated violence.

I actually kicked people off the site who did.

Then explain that, you son of a bitch!

Wait.

Wait.

- What is this? - That is a Boston cop

being gunned down, and it's you pulling the trigger.

No, that's not me. It's-it's A.I. or something.

Lonnie, look at me.

You drop this act right now.

This is you.

If you come clean, it will definitely go better for you.

- This isn't possible. - Hey.

There is a Boston cop in the hospital right now fighting for his life.

So, unless you have a twin brother who hates the cops more than you do,

you look pretty damn good for this, Lonnie, so tell us the truth!

I'm telling you, I was at the gym all morning.

A bunch of people saw me.

Please. I didn't do this.

Lonnie's alibi checked out.

Desk attendant at the gym checked him in, and then some trainer was taking a selfie

and caught him on a treadmill in the background

at the same time of the shooting.

- Makes no sense. - Guys, look.

This guy doesn't have a tattoo on his hand.

Lonnie does.

Wh... Wait a minute. This isn't Lonnie?

So, what, is there somebody else

out there who looks exactly like him?

Or...

...there's a guy who made himself look exactly like him.

Companies are using A.I. tech to make lifelike masks.

They can make them from any photo.

- It's all over social media. - So, then,

our shooter probably doesn't look anything like that.

We've just been chasing

- after the wrong man. - Mm-hmm.

Steve didn't make it.

Sean.

How the hell did we arrest the wrong guy?

The shooter used the anti-police subreddit as a cover.

Look, it's possible that the shooter

was somebody that Lonnie kicked off of the forum.

And if it was, that would be motive for them to frame Lonnie.

You said he probably used pictures of Fisk to make a mask.

That would mean they know each other offline,

- right? - No, Fisk said

that he never met anyone from that subreddit in person.

But he used the handle Badge_Breaker_10

across multiple platforms.

Instagram has plenty of pictures of him if somebody wanted to find some.

We're getting a list of everybody that Fisk booted off of the forum.

We're gonna track every single one of them down.

I want a full report in an hour.

I want to know exactly how we ended up chasing our tails.

I'll take the hit.

Just keep me posted.

It's my fault Steve's dead.

I asked him and Rachel to cover for us

so we could grab cannolis.

Steve is dead because I thought it'd be funny

to do a taste test.

No, Steve is dead because some psycho decided to kill a cop.

- That's why. - But if we had taken the call,

like we were supposed to, Jonah was driving,

I would've been killed.

Why him? Why not me?

Son...

When I was in Iraq,

my unit got intel that a village was gonna be attacked.

A village full of women and children.

At the same time, another unit needed backup

just a few kilometers away.

I took my guys and I went to the village.

And the other unit got ambushed.

Two Marines died, and it was my call.

We don't get to game out our choices, son.

You don't get to pick the right one.

Life doesn't work that way.

I know you're trying to help, okay?

But the only thing that's gonna make me feel better

is finding the guy that killed Steve.

And making him pay.

Sean.

Hey, Reverend.

What brings you down?

Well, Mae wanted to check on the case

and I figured I'd tag along,

make myself available to anyone who might need to talk.

I get the feeling that might apply to you.

I guess you heard all that.

Yeah.

Sounds like Sean's having a rough time.

He is.

I don't know. I've been a son to a cop,

brother to a cop, grandson to a cop.

Still getting used to being a father to one.

And if I'm being honest, Rev...

...I don't think I'm getting it right.

What I heard was a father giving his son

some great advice and guidance.

But maybe this moment calls for something else.

Less talking. More listening.

Maybe Sean needs you beside him, not ahead of him.

Of course.

Thank you.

Hold on, sir. Just let us...

Just let us get out of the car.

She didn't freeze.

She heard Steve struggling to breathe.

- Then why didn't she say that? - Because she didn't remember

until she saw the video.

Sarah, I know that the chief is upset,

- but you have... - It looks like she lied, Jonah.

She was in shock. She had just been shot.

I know that. I also know her partner had just been shot.

Her partner was dying, and she was trying to help him.

- Isn't that what matters? - It's all that matters.

But it's still not gonna be easy to convince the chief.

Sarah, you have to try.

Please.

Hi.

Hey.

Doing okay?

Uh, yep, just busy.

Well, I'm around if you want to talk about anything case-related

or otherwise.

You can't avoid me forever, Lena.

This way.

Is this really the only place?

Unless you want an audience.

When I went up to Eastborough...

...I didn't meet my father.

I did meet my half sister Christina.

Did you know about her?

I did.

I found out about her a long time ago.

Why didn't you tell me?

Because then I would have had to tell you the rest.

Your father did know about you.

Everything else I told you was the truth.

Your dad was in prison.

I didn't tell him I was pregnant.

He got a special dispensation to join the military

after he got out.

He was overseas for years.

When he came home, he found me.

And he figured out that you were his daughter.

He wanted to be in your life.

I said no.

Why would you do that?

I had just married Ben.

You were just settling in to him being your father.

Chris was married.

His wife was pregnant with Christina.

Having them in your life, it would have undone everything

I was trying to build for you.

Do you mean it would've undone

everything you were trying to build for you?

Chris and I agreed that he would stay away.

We were trying to protect our families.

- Both of our families. - Did either one of you

think about the cost?

What it would cost me?

Lena.

I've got to go. There's been a break in my case.

Wait. One more thing.

Chris came to see me after you went to Eastborough.

He's kept tabs on you all these years.

He may have stayed away, but he has not

stopped caring about you.

He'd be open to meeting you...

...whenever you're ready.

Off-duty Cambridge officer, plainclothes.

I got a suspect in custody.

117 Atherton Street.

Request transport.

It's the same voice as the 911 call

that lured Steve and Rachel.

He's posing as a cop now.

Well, dispatch told him to stand by. He's waiting there.

They're waiting on your instructions.

117 Atherton Street is just near Egleston Square.

Can you buy us time to get there?

Marked units have sealed off a four-block radius

around the location. Plainclothes teams

are moving in from each direction.

It's a big intersection. Don't let him see you coming.

And remember, we want him alive.

We've got eyes on the suspect.

Looks just like the man from the body cam photo.

Hey!

- What's happening? - Drop the phone. On your knees!

- Hold on. - Whoa, whoa, whoa.

Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.

- Wait, let me get this off. - What the hell is this?

Take it off slow.

Get up.

This guy paid me to put that on and stand here.

- Where did he go? - I don't know.

Get down!

We got shots fired!

From the alley on Atherton!

We got an officer down and a male civilian.

We need a bus forthwith and backup!

Who is it? Which officer is down?

Barnett.

- I can get to Officer Barnett. - I got him.

Hey. You okay?

Suspect is westbound on Atherton.

Lena, what is happening?

I'm taking fire.

Lena! Lena.

Is everyone okay?

I'm sending more backup.

Lena. What is your status?

Lena!

Did we get him?

No, we lost him.

What'd the man in the mask say?

Said a guy in a blue baseball cap approached him,

offered him a hundred bucks to put on the mask

and hold the cell phone. That's all he remembers.

So, the shooter uses a decoy, hangs back

- and takes another shot at us. - The shooter's smart.

He knows we're on edge... that's why he pretended to be a cop

when he called dispatch, so he could catch us off guard,

maybe pick a few of us off.

We're gonna run the mask and the phone for prints and DNA,

but probably it's gonna come back to the patsy.

Hey, guys. Got something.

Witness saw the shooter jumping that fence.

He dropped this. This is BPD.

Yeah, but it's the old design.

We haven't used it in decades.

It belonged to John Costa.

He was BPD in the '70s.

His son Matthew is retired BPD. He died last year.

God, I knew him. Solid cop.

Matthew's son Adam is a Weymouth cop.

His son Nathan was in the BPD Academy six months ago.

Cut loose halfway through.

His termination letter.

A psych eval labeled him unfit for duty.

Yeah, I remember this.

- Easy decision. - It triggered a flood

- of unhinged emails. - We trained him.

- He knows our blind spots. - Yeah, except now it's personal.

He thought the BPD was family. Turns out, we weren't.

He feels betrayed. This is a vendetta.

He's not gonna stop.

Which means he's gonna go down shooting.

Being a cop was all Nathan ever wanted.

He would have been fourth-generation.

We know this is difficult, Mr. Costa.

But Nathan's Academy file shows that he was rigid,

combative and aggressive.

Nathan was a good kid.

But after high school, something happened.

He got depressed. He was struggling.

And when he didn't make it through the Academy, he just unraveled.

But I didn't know he was gonna hurt anyone.

Especially cops.

Four generations is a lot of legacy to carry.

When he got kicked out, must have taken away his identity.

I told him it didn't matter whether he was a cop,

- I still loved him. - But it did matter.

He lost out on the only thing he ever wanted.

Sure he forgot who he was, in some ways.

Is there anything else you could tell us, anything that might

give us an idea of what he might try to do next?

He was going down a lot of, uh, Internet rabbit holes lately.

And he was hanging out

with this anti-cop idiot he met on Reddit.

- Guy have a name? - I don't know, just that the guy

talked trash about policemen, even to me.

Is this the guy?

Yeah, that's definitely the guy.

- Sean was right. - Mm-hmm.

Fisk was in on it.

She lied, Sarah. I can't forgive that or condone it.

She was wounded and in shock.

We both know cops can lose whole pieces of events when something traumatic happens.

Okay, even if you're right, she still didn't take a single shot.

We're trained to do that.

We are trained to render aid first.

Let me ask you a question.

You're bleeding out on the sidewalk.

Who do you want by your side? The cowboy chasing the suspect,

or the partner who is saving your life?

If you want to fire her, you can try,

but the union will be behind her, and so will I.

I don't need a lecture. I need an arrest.

So, why don't you focus on bringing in a cop killer?

You lied, Lonnie. You are friends with Costa.

And we searched Costa's apartment.

- You emailed him after we spoke to you. - I was mad he tried

to frame me. That doesn't mean I was working with him.

We also found this.

His termination letter from the Academy?

- What the hell does "The Reckoning" mean? - I don't know.

And even if I did, I wouldn't tell you.

I'm not particularly interested in helping an occupying force.

- Are you kidding me with that? - Hey.

Whoa.

How are you gonna feel when we charge you for murder?

Good luck with that. We might have believed

the same things, but I didn't know anything

about Costa's plan, or help him.

You won't find a shred of evidence that says otherwise.

Why are you protecting a guy that tried to frame you?

Eh, as far as I'm concerned, only good cop is a dead cop.

Sean.

Whoa! Calm down!

Tell me what you know, right now!

- Sean, Sean. Come on. - Come on. Come on.

I swear, I didn't know what he was gonna do.

Take it easy.

I-I don't know what "The Reckoning" means.

Costa always said he would kill the man who ruined his life someday.

I mean, if he had any kind of final move, it'd be that.

The chief is the one that fired Costa.

- He ruined his life. - So, Lanigan's the next target.

He's officiating the medal ceremony at 2:00 p.m.

Reagan.

Lena, Sarah's there.

Well...

Mr. Costa, slow down. What?

Yeah. Okay. That was Mr. Costa.

His police uniform was stolen from his closet by his son.

So, Costa's at that ceremony, dressed as a Weymouth cop?

Yeah.

To kill Chief Lanigan.

- Got it. - Officer Susan Knight.

There you go, Officer Knight.

Job well done.

Security, shooter is here.

He's in a Weymouth PD uniform.

The target is Lanigan.

Congratulations, Officer.

For outstanding valor in the performance of her duties,

Medal of Honor goes to Officer Sandy Evans.

Chief!

Chief! Are you okay?

I'm good, I'm good. Go. Go!

I'm good.

Listen up, Officers.

He's on foot and injured.

We've sealed off a ten-block perimeter

with a shelter-in-place advisory.

I want a hard target search.

Every house, apartment, basement, shed, anywhere he could hide.

We want him alive.

He needs to answer to Steve's family.

- Appreciate it. - Thank you.

Clear.

Rats.

Hey!

Reagan.

Your dad's a cop.

- Reagan! - You want to kill a cop?

- Come here! Get up. - Hey, hey, hey.

- No! No! - Not like this. Not like this!

How is this any different than what you've done?

- Huh? - There's a line.

It took me too long to find it.

I'm not gonna watch you cross it.

Be better than me.

Turn over. Put your hands behind your back.

Be still.

Steve's.

Honor him.

You're under arrest for the murder of Steve Webster.

You have the right to remain silent.

Yes, I am very pleased to announce

that both teenagers arrested for the Biddy Doyle robbery

have been indicted for murder.

And both will be tried in adult court.

I just, uh, I hope this brings some peace of mind...

I couldn't quite figure it out.

I told you to keep the younger defendant in juvie.

Why would you directly and publicly disobey me?

Because I am tired of watching you change this office.

We used to go after maximum sentences, Mae.

High bail, stacked counts.

Now I don't know what we stand for.

That's why you disagree with me,

but not why you disobeyed me today.

Look, if you want to fire me, go ahead.

There it is.

You're running for D.A.

I checked it out. You're building support with people who want me out.

You planned this.

You want me to fire you so you can call me "soft on crime."

If the shoe fits.

You're a reactionary, Thad.

If you get elected, you're gonna take this office

back to the dark ages, and I will not let that happen.

Then I guess it's war.

Bring it on.

Mae.

Don't fire him.

Send him to misdemeanor court.

All units, clear the air for final call.

Dispatch calling Officer 75921.

Officer 75921, please respond.

This is final call for Officer Steve Webster, badge 75921.

Officer Steve Webster is End of Watch, April 27th, 2026.

He's gone home for the final time.

Thank you, Officer Webster.

We have the watch from here.

Honor Guard.

Shoulder, arms.

Aim.

Fire.

Load.

Aim.

Fire.

Load.

Aim.

Fire.

Honor Guard, present arms.

Officer Yolande.

I reviewed all incident reports.

I'm putting you in for a Medal of Honor.

Well done.

Thank you, sir.

That's pretty good news.

And thank you for everything you did for Steve.

And me.

Come here.

Our people matter more than taking down the bad guy.

Thank you for reminding me of that.

You would have done the same thing, sir.

Good luck.

Hey.

What happened was not your fault.

Steve would hate for you to do this to yourself.

Come here.

Did you have anything to do with that?

Closure's important.

Otherwise, you spend your life wondering.

Funerals have a way of putting things into perspective, don't they?

Yes, they do.

Speaking of closure, have you decided

if you're gonna talk to your dad or not?

You know, Nathan Costa felt like his identity

was wrapped up in being a cop.

When it fell apart, he didn't know who he was.

I am not spending the rest of my life

wondering who I really am.

Sounds like a yes.

It's a...

"I am done letting other people decide for me."

Hmm.

Like I said. Closure.

Anyone know where Lena is?

I think she needed a little time to herself.

Is she okay?

She's fine.

Let's pray.

Heavenly Father, we ask that you grant Steve Webster peace.

And please, walk with those he left behind.

Give them strength and comfort.

Let them feel surrounded with your love.

- Amen. - Amen.

Uh, Rev, Mae.

If I could just take a second?

When we come on the job as rookies,

we always think it's gonna get easier with time.

Then a cop gets hurt.

Between the guilt and shame and fear that we might be next,

we realize it doesn't get easier, it only gets harder.

Sometimes, the best way to deal with it

is to shut off your feelings.

The problem with that is,

you start to become just like the very monsters we're chasing.

There is a way through it, and that is

to lean on each other.

As friends, as partners and as family.

And to do what the rev reminded me of.

To listen.

To family.

Especially the one at this table.

- To family. - To family.

Hi, is this Chris Williams?

This is Lena Silver.

Your daughter.
