NEWS ANCHOR:
Good morning, Hollywood.

And believe it or not,
it is a very good morning,

as the mayor's office
and the CDC are reporting

record low infection rates
for LA County and beyond.

It was an intense spring
and an even crazier summer,

but now that we've
reorganized our closets,

rearranged the pantry,

and sort of learned
how to make sourdough,

we are all dying to get
out there and see the world.

Operation Center.

They think those microquakes
might have damaged

more than just the dam.

They're worried
about a landslide

east of the reservoir.

East of the reservoir?

Well, that's all residential.

You're gonna need
more boots on the ground,

people to knock on doors.

And someone to supervise
the scene.

Look, I know you said
you wanted to ease in,

but I need you back out there.

[sighs]

[line trilling]

The water from the dam break,
it brought me here.

I think it might be a--
a pipe.

[groans]
I think my rib is broken.

Pretty sure my ankle is too.

MADDIE:
Okay, what's your name?

-Janell.
-Okay, Janell.

Do you have any sense
of your location?

JANELL: Just a big pipe.

[groans]

Wait.
[grunts]

There's some writing
on the wall.

[grunts]

S-W.
[groans]

The rest is covered
in graffiti.

S.W.
I think that means spillway.

Are you in water or sewage?

JANELL:
It doesn't smell that bad.

I'd say it's just water.

[chuckles weakly]
Lucky me.

Okay, hang on.

We're gonna get you
out of there.

I've got a woman who's
caught up in the debris flow.

She's trapped in a storm drain,
and she's in rough shape.

Storm drain.

These are water mains
and storm drains together.

You said you were talking
to DWP.

Maybe they've got a better map?

I'll call them now.

But she can't be
that far underground

if she has a signal, right?

Right, but she's underground.

The same ground they just
told us is about to tumble

-down the side of the hill.
-MADDIE: Yeah.

If we don't get to her,
she'll be buried alive.
