Previously on "The Rookie"...

Officer Stanton
will be taking over

the training of Officer West.
Someone broke into your home?

So, who are you claiming
these days, D?

He did something
that really bothered me.

The way he treated
this one family. Black family.

It's my job to teach you
the right way

to think on the street.

I hear he's a solid cop.

Learn what's useful
and ignore the rest.

Officer Nolan, you will be held
over the FTO program

for an additional month.

Why didn't you tell me?
Why do you think?

Congratulations,
Detective.

Lopez: If I show up pregnant
on day one,

that's all they'll ever
see me as.

Hey! Mom!
Actually, I'm so sorry.

I'm just running
out the door.

Oh, you're always busy.

You haven't been home
in over a year.

Uh, yes, well, rookies still
don't get vacation time, Mom.

You know this.

How about I come for a visit?
Huh?

Uh, well, that would
be...lovely, Mother.

I really don't think
I have the...

time.

Danny had an affair with his ex,
so I dumped him.

I need emotional support. Emotional support.

Mom, I am so sorry.

He just proposed to you,
though.

I sent flowers.
They're getting delivered today.

Oh, that's so thoughtful
of you.

But I should have known
this was not gonna last.

I told him I wanted
three carats, and apparently,

I'm only worth one
and a quarter.

Uh...
A quarter!

Mother.
[ Sighs ]

You're supposed to give the ring
back when you break up.

[ Scoffs ] Nonsense!
It's damages.

Compensation
for pain and suffering.

And, now, weren't you
in trouble recently?

'Cause Cousin Carol sent me an
article from Facebook or som--

I did not read it.

Your concern is touching.

Um, it's --
Everything's okay.

I am back on track.
At least I think I am. Ohh. Oh.

But to that end, I really --
I can't be late, so I'm --

Okay, go, go, go.

you'd be dead.

I'm not gonna lie.
I'm not fond of him.

Yeah.
Join the club.

[ Sighs ]
I hate training with the public.

I feel like we're sharing
trade secrets.

Is it possible Tim Bradford
is having performance anxiety?

There are pills for that,
you know.

Look, I've come in second behind
Lopez the last four years.

Now that Annie Oakley's
with the detectives,

I got the patrol crown
in the bag.

Oh, there's only one problem
with that.

Me.

Firearm requalification day.

And, yes, I said "day"
because even though

the department allows a month
for you to requalify,

I expect every officer here
to leave with a passing score.

As police officers,
we can never lose sight

of the power we carry
on our hip.

There are only three
circumstances where an officer

should discharge
his or her weapon.

What are they?
Rookies?

To defend
their own life.

To defend
another person's life.

To prevent the escape
of an individual

who's committed a felony
involving the use or threat

of deadly force and poses an imminent danger to the public

if he or she were allowed
to escape.

Very good.

I'm Officer Dixon,
your Range Master.

Each target has two sides --
the civilian and the suspect.

When you see the suspect,

you have three seconds
to get shots off.

If you fire on the civilian
side, it is an automatic fail.

[ Gunfire ]

You have 36 shots,
two magazine changes.

30 hits is a pass,
29 a fail.

Whoops.
Almost made somebody an orphan.

Rookies, you're up.

Care to make it
interesting?

20 bucks if your Boot makes it out on top?

I'll take that bet.

Me, too.

Dixon: Officers ready?
Begin.

So, finishing first with

Congrats. You are the new
Mid-Wilshire champ.

[ Cheers and applause ]
Thank you! Thank you.

Thank you very much.

Uh, Bradford, Harper,
you both tied for second.

I don't know
what I hate more --

tying for second with you
or losing to a rookie.

And in last place,
my only fail in three years --

Uh, sir, when --

Officer Nolan,
if I hear one more word

about a guy in scuba gear...[ Laughter ]

If you don't pass
requalification within 30 days,

you will be put on desk duty

and be given
remedial firearm training.

Is that really the way you want
to end your rookie experience?

No, sir.

Then I suggest
you put in some range time

before your next test.

Alright, see you all
back at the station.

Hey, I need you
to sign this.

Tamara.
Good morning.

Good morning.

Can you sign the title
to the car?

Cops keep eyeballing it,

and they're not gonna believe
you gave it to me.

You know, you still haven't confirmed

our Tuesday morning appointment with the social worker.

We need to find you a real place to live.

I'll be there.
I promise.

Alright.

Oh, hey.
I was a psychology major.

Cool, but it's just a class
that I have to take.

Well, you might want to pay a little extra attention to it.

I found that
it really helped me

understand what motivates people.

So does
living on the street.

Fair enough.

[ Pen scratching ]
The car is officially yours.

Drive safe.
Thanks.

You're welcome.

Thanks.

Ooh-ee!
A cholo piñata.

Looks like he got dressed using
the thug life handbook.

What do the tats tell us?

Spider web shows us that he was
caught up in the life.

And the three dots
by his eye?

Stands for
"mi vida loca."

That and the clock tattoo
shows us that he's done time,

and based on the yellow belt
and the bandana,

he probably banged with
Malos Dorados.

Officer West,
I taught you well.

Sorry for making you wait.

Nah, that's a first.

Didn't know detectives knew the word "sorry."

Well, it wasn't too long ago
I was the one

Well, not like I'm trying to
defend her or anything,

but a single mom raising a kid

'80s.

Late '70s, early '80s.

Whatever.

Women couldn't even get their
own credit cards back then.

I mean, society was designed to
make them depend on men.

So maybe that made your mom
a little...mercenary.

Lopez:
Your old C.I. came through.

What did Felix tell you? That my murder victim
was recruited

to be local muscle
for a Guatemalan cartel,

specifically for
La Fiera.

La Fiera?
It's a woman?

Her real name's
Sandra de la Cruz.

She's a big-time drug runner
from Guatemala.

Legend goes that
when she was only 15,

she was walking home
from the hospital

with her newborn son
when she got caught

in the crossfire
between two rival gangs.

To protect her baby,
she picks up a semiautomatic

off a dead narco
and kills everyone.

The cartel was so impressed,
they recruited her

and named her La Fiera.
And you believe that?

There's songs written about it
and a kick-ass telenovela.

So, whether her origin story
is true or not,

La Fiera is very real
and very dangerous.

And you think she's connected
to your homicide?

I don't know.

What are these?

You're putting in
your papers?

When?

I don't know.

Were you gonna
say something?

Like you share all
your personal decisions?

Eventually.

Exactly.

I'll tell everyone
when I'm ready.

Yes, sir.

the same without you.

Well, I'm either going to the
range or home to my mother.

So, you're going

You know, you could always
ask her to get a hotel.

You know, you'd think
that'd be the case.

Doug: You broke the first rule
of being a cop --

have your fellow officer's
back.

I did.
You questioned every move I made,

all before the suspects
were even in cuffs.

But what really pissed me off --
calling for a supervisor.

The whole city hears that and
thinks we're in over our heads.

We were in
over our heads!

No, you were!

Don't let it happen again.

Hey. Was he actually giving you
a hard time

about today?Yeah, it's whatever.

I just have to hold it down
for a few more weeks

then I'll be free of him.
What happened?

He jacked up the wrong suspect,
then threatened the family.

A Black family,
and it's not the first time.

You should tell Grey. Or at least
talk to Tim about it.

I did already.

Tim said that he heard Doug
was "a solid cop,"

and that I should,
"learn what's useful from him

and ignore the rest."

He said that?
Yeah.

And, look,
as horrible as today was,

technically,
Stanton didn't break any laws.

Plus, he's an 11-year vet
and I'm just a rookie.

No one's
gonna listen to me.

Hey. I just heard.
You all right?

Yeah, yeah.
My truck, not so much.

Any idea
who the shooter is?

No, not yet.
I did get a look at him, though.

He was at the firing range
during our qualifications,

wearing a full scuba suit.

Who's the
investigating detective?

Uh, actually,
it looks like it's you.

Crime scene techs identified
the shooter's ammunition --

silicone-covered,
armor-piercing.

Same as my homicide.

And then the suspect got away
in a white sedan,

but I only got
a partial plate.

Luckily, that was all we needed.
So, we've got five possibles.

Only one
was a white sedan.

It's a rental out of Pico-Union.
You get a name?

Yes, they e-mailed us
a copy of his driver's license.

Guillermo Sandoval.

That's him.
This is the guy.

He's definitely connected
to my murder.

Victim worked for
a Guatemalan cartel.

Any idea where this guy is now?
Actually, yeah.

We got a hit off
of his credit card

that he used for
the rent-a-car.

It's, uh, one of those
no-tell motels on Ventura.

I'll call for a warrant.

Lopez:
"Policía. Plan B."

♪♪

He's a cop.

At first,
it didn't make sense to me

how a cop with a good reputation
could do this.

Then I did
a little research.

You survived
the Massacre of Antiguo Leon.

Your village stood up
to the cartel,

and they were slaughtered.

Men, women, children...
your children.

But this man
that you tortured and killed

had nothing to do
with that.

He worked for the one
who ordered it done.

La Fiera.

And you want revenge,
but she's a hard one to catch.

Smart and very cautious.

Rumor is she only travels
by yacht to avoid ambush.

So...that explains
the scuba gear.

You needed to practice shooting
with all that equipment on.

Clearly,
that was Plan "A."

But you sent someone a text
ordering Plan "B."

So, what is that?

You'll find out...
soon enough.

Yeah, well,
thanks for nothing.

My guy at the DEA didn't even
know La Fiera was in town.

That's more than
a little scary.

And it's so strange to think
that if I hadn't been distracted

by a guy in a scuba suit
at a gun range,

there would be a bloodbath
on a yacht right now.

Yeah,
that was a good spot.

Not what
you said yesterday.

But who's keeping score?

Clearly, you.
Clearly.

I hope Grey is,
too, though.

You think there's any way he
would be so impressed by this,

he might, you know,
let me off the hook

for that 30-day
extension?

Officer Nolan,

why were you given
an official letter of reprimand

and extended in
the FTO program?

Because I ignored
an LAPD regulation.

Among other things.

And do you feel that that was
a fitting punishment,

considering
your violation?

Yes.

And yet you want
special treatment.

When we pinch someone breaking
the law, they are punished.

If those rules
apply to them,

then they absolutely
apply to us, as well.
