" Ma'am, drop the knife!" " Get away from me!" "Get away from me!" "Ma'am, ma'am!" "Get away from me!" "Drop the knife!" " It's okay." "Drop the knife." " He lied!" "Drop it now!" "The average street cop in Los Angeles makes $75,000 a year." "It's not enough." "It's just a simple question." " Who's more your type?" " Cut it out." "Cut it out." "Oh, it won't hurt my feelings." "Hey, you're neck and neck, all right?" "Stop." "Mmm." "I like the way you lie, Officer." "Hey." "Mm." "My shift's in a couple hours." "I got to -- I got to eat breakfast." "I got to work out." "Did someone say breakfast?" "And a workout so he can keep up with the bad guys, you know?" "Oh." "Oh." "Mmm." "Do you think we should help him?" "Ow." " Kathy, I'm home!" " God." "Holy shit, he said Chicago till tomorrow." "Hey, Dan." "Rainey slept over, and she's just out of the shower." "Don't come up for a sec, okay?" "Oh!" "Shit!" "That's my husband." "You got to go." "Go." "Go, go, go, go, go!" "You're married?" "Please just go out the window." "Shit." "We're on the second floor!" "You're a cop!" "Can't you handle it?" ""It's the right thing to do."" "That's what Ricky said..." "Before we begged him not to testify." "All his life, his mom and me, we work hard to keep him out of the gangs." "He was about to graduate..." "But that's when he saw the murder and decided to step up." "And what did he get for it?" "He was shot dead... as payback..." "By that piece of" "By him..." "Who won't even look me in the eye!" ""It's the right thing to do."" ""It's the right thing to do."" "For who?" "Morning." "Division's short on supervisors -- flu." "I need you to serve as field supervisor until further notice." "That's a joke, right?" "Nope." "But if you can find the humor in it," "I'm sure it'll make it easier." "I haven't pulled on a uniform since we could still carry maglites." "Yeah, well, silver lining -- lighter gear." "And if you happen to find yourself out of practice, you know, just ask a cop." "Um, what about, uh, Litvack or Cho?" "You're the only D-2 left that's cross-trained as a sergeant." "Glad I went that extra mile." "Me too, or I might have to do it." " Quiet down." " Hey, quiet." "Woo and Roselli, you'll be riding together today." "And last up -- and I know you're gonna be crushed by this " ""the L.A.P.D.:" "20 years after the riots"" "is apparently ready to wrap." "So our guests here from the National Television Service are only gonna be with us for one more watch, okay?" "Tang, Cooper, they're gonna be riding with you today." "What?" "Hey." "Hey, what's the matter with me, man?" "Somebody get my agent on the phone." "Don't quit your day job, Dewey." "No, I'm serious." "I want to get my S.A.G. card." "Hey, all joking aside -- do not get sucked in." "I know they tried to corner some of you in the halls." "And you may think you can let your guard down 'cause they got the chief's "approval," but trust me, the department will throw you under the bus if they have to." "Then they're gonna stick it in reverse and make sure you're good and flat." "So my advice -- stick to the usual rule against expressing your views on-camera." "All right?" "All right, roll out, be safe." " Seriously, Sarge?" " Seriously." "You're the only two senior officers I got left I can trust." "Sorry." "Sarge, Dewey wants to do it." "Yeah, and if I let him, they're gonna bring back the consent decree." "And what if we refuse?" "Really?" "With respect, I didn't come to work today to have to answer a bunch of questions." "Come on, Sarge, 24/7, we got citizens filming us, us filming them, and now we got these we got these "Newshour" jerk-offs watching all of us watch each other." "Expecting us to narrate?" "So, I got to be an asshole now and order you to do it?" "Let's get it over with, all right?" "Ah, man." "Okay, a generic 415 like this, you just never know." "It could be an old lady making a fuss or, you know, somebody trashing a place with a baseball bat." "All right, hey, stay." "Hey." "Behind us, all right." "You stay behind us." "Nobody gets hurt today." "That's the big rule." "No, you do what you're paid to do." "I don't care -- oh, God." "This place -- this place is violating our civil rights." "It isn't your right for us to print what we find offensive." " It is my right." " All right." "All right." "What's going on?" "What's happening?" " Okay, slow down." " Slow down." "What is going on?" "Okay, I prepaid for this cake." "I prepaid for a birthday cake for my son." "Now this guy's refusing to finish it." "Look, his kid's name is Adolf, and they want swastikas." "His name is Adolf." "All right, did you give him -- did you give him -- did you give him a refund for the cake?" "Yes." "I-I offered him a refund and a -- and a $5 coupon on any dozen muffins." " Sounds like a pretty tasty deal to me." " The party's in an hour." "Okay?" "Okay." "Okay." "How about just "Happy Birthday" and skip the swastikas?" "Huh?" "Okay." "That I'll do." " Okay, I suppose we can do that." " No." "No, no." "No, May." "Don't you see what they're doing?" "This is discrimination." "Why -- why are we being discriminated against for what we call our kid?" "Defer to us." "We're here to help you, sir." "I'm stopping." "Stop it!" "You talk to me!" "Okay, I'm talking to you." "Okay, good." "Why are we being discriminated against for what we call our kid?" "Okay, now I'm gonna talk to you." "Now you close your mouth." "You had your chance, okay?" "It is not against the law for him not to sell you this cake." "It is against the law." "How is it not against the law?" "Because he owns the store, and you don't." "That's right, asshole." "But if I don't want to serve some black guy..." "Hey, hey, hey." "So you either you compromise or you get your cake elsewhere." "That's the deal, all right?" "What's it gonna be?" "Derek, I got no time to bake." "You're lucky, buddy." "You're real lucky." "Fine, fine, no swastikas." "But you put on there "Happy Birthday, Adolf."" "No." "You understand me?" "No." "My dad's Jewish." "Okay?" "That's not a name I'm putting in frosting." "I don't care if you're some half-breed nigger mother" "No!" "No!" "You put " "What -- oh, what are you gonna do?" "You know what -- what are you gonna do?" "Oh, yeah." "Come at me." "You see this?" "You see how they act?" "You see how they act?" "You say one little thing, they want to get violent." "Sir, sir, look at me." "Look at me." "Okay, look at me." "I'm very calm." "Okay, you know what?" "It's this guy -- he's" "He wants to start a fight with me." "I just want him to make a cake." "Okay, you know what?" "How about -- how about " "I don't need to be called a nigger in my own store, Officer." "Do your job, okay?" "Do your job." "What about you write it yourself?" "I did my job." "What about you write it yourself?" "You know what?" "Has he paid?" "Has he paid?" "No, his handwriting sucks." "Yes, sir." "Has he paid?" "Wrap the cake up." "Wrap the cake up." " Let them do it themselves." " This is ridiculous." "See?" "I'll do it." "Okay." "But if I refuse service in my store -- you know what?" "You need to step back." "If I refuse service in my store..." "Please step outside." "Calm down." "...then, "oh, oh" -- excuse me." "Step outside." "Then we're violating their civil rights." "Step outside." "What about my civil rights?" "You need to take a break." "You need to take a break." "As long as I -- you know, as long as you agree with this liberal media shit -- my civil rights." "Shh." "It's okay." "How did I feel about it?" "Uh, you want to name your kid after a genocidal maniac, hey, it's America, right?" "Ignorant?" "Sure." "Offensive?" "You bet." "Illegal?" "No." "Look, it's not our job to enforce good taste." "We're professionals." "We stay neutral." "First thing a good cop learns do not get emotionally involved." "Mr. Chavez, I'm so sorry." "I'm so sorry about what happened to your son." "Shit." "Man I'm sorry I'm late." "No worries." "They are, too." "What happened to your lip?" "Guy went for me in court." " I'll tell you as we motor." " Yeah." "Why you guys so late, huh?" "Sorry, boys -- 11th-hour Frank." "Yeah?" "You sure you didn't go to that skanky joint in Chinatown, get a "rub and tug"?" "I don't have to do my crunches now, I'm laughing so hard." "Yeah, you know what?" "You should do some crunches." "Oh, bite me." "A thousand, you fat ass." "Man, Merkle stinks." "Guy should be required to carry extra deodorant, no?" "Yeah?" "You want to tell him?" "You can get a busted cheekbone to go with that busted lip." "So, was it blondie last night or her more homely friend?" "Both." "Get out." "What?" "!" "How thick were your beer goggles?" "I was kidding." "Yeah, well, I kind of wish I was, too." "Well, still, though, I mean, it must have been mind-blowing." "Even if they aren't supermodels, I mean, two chicks -- two chicks is pretty cool." "Yeah." "It was until blondie's husband came home." "What?" "Yeah." "I had to jump out the window." "Oh, man." "The leap of shame." "Come on, give me the play-by-play." "Ah." "Any available unit, officer needs backup." "Rampart at 6th Street." "Unit handling it, identify." "Let's do it." " Yeah?" " Hell, yeah." "All right." "A36, show us handling." "36, Roger." "Come on, we're in a rush." "Code 3?" "I thought you said "backup."" "Just for the record, this isn't skid row anymore." "Now it's the CCRZ..." "The "Central City Recovery Zone."" "Yeah, city hall being creative, 'cause no one's really sure what that means." "Yeah, I think it means, uh..." ""Hey, let's buy a luxury loft." "You know, now that crime is down, it's safer down here."" "Yeah, and there are lies, damn lies, and statistics." "Hey!" "Hey, zip it up, or I'll zip it for you, and I'm not careful!" "I mean, look around." "You feel safer, don't you?" "Hey." "You got a problem?" "You're blocking traffic." "Get it out of the street." "I said get it out of the street now!" "Whoa, Sergeant Adams." "When did you switch teams?" "Same team, Mendez, remember?" "No, I'm " " I'm sorry." "I didn't mean it like that, ma'am." "I just, uh " "I'm a little surprised to see you, that's all." "Yeah, well, the division was short on supervisors, so I had to step in." "Well, your enthusiasm is inspiring." "You gonna tell me what happened?" "Well, yeah, we were hooking our suspects up over there, and this knucklehead decides to swing at me with his cuff, hits me in the eye." "An inch lower, I would have been a Cyclops." "You call an R.A. Unit?" "Yeah, it's on its way." "What happened his face?" "Um..." "Upon encountering resistance, we used reasonable and necessary force to subdue him, including one approved front kick and two open palm strikes to the jaw area." "If I wanted a tactics seminar," "I'd go back through the Academy." "I'm just telling you -- that's how it went down." "Those lookie-loos over there -- could they have seen it differently?" "Uh..." "I didn't see any of them taking video." "That wasn't my question." "Go ahead and ask them, okay?" "'Cause what I'm telling you, that's how it went down." "And you might want to take some pictures of my injury, too, to submit with your report." "Yeah, and his." "I know how it works, Mendez." "Okay." "You all right?" "You look a little winded." "I'm fine." "Yeah." "Are you all right?" "You guys need anything else?" "Yeah, you good?" "At least nobody got hurt." "I'm sorry, but she's what, like 5', 99 pounds soaking wet?" "They got her riding with that slug Hinkle?" "One scrawny asshole gets in their face, and, boom, they're on the radio." "Just cuff him and shove him in the car!" "Where's their command presence?" "Yeah, some cops just shouldn't be cops." "Makes me embarrassed to wear the uniform sometimes." "Hey, you know, we clipped a mailbox down there when you were heading around that corner, acting all stunt driver." "Eh, it's okay." "Well, you knocked it over, I think." "It's a mailbox." "Well, call it in if you want." "I'm just " "I blame those flashy recruiting posters " ""You, too, can be L.A.P.D.!"" "Yeah, till the shit hits the fan, right?" "Hey, you want coffee?" " There's that place down the street." " Yeah, yeah." "Hey, what happened to your lip, man?" "Oh." "Yeah." "About a year ago, this NBK shot into a car and killed a baby." "Well, I convinced a witness to come forward and testify." "Asshole got 25 years." "It's a good story so far." "Then two of his homeys killed my witness with an A.K. In a drive-by." "Kid was 17, real future." "Today was the sentencing phase for the shooter." "I saw my witness' dad at the courthouse and tried to say something, but..." "He didn't really want to hear it." "Right." "So, the, uh..." "The second homey -- did they ever get enough on him?" "No." "No." "But I know who the shooter is." "It's all over the street." "And, uh..." "Today's his lucky day." "Oh, yeah?" "His parole officer called me on Monday 'cause he didn't check in." "And you've been saving that up so you can screw up his weekend." "Yeah." "Hopefully his next six months." "Hey, there, Sergeant." "Hey." "Heard you were slumming it today." "How you doing, Jim?" "How's the little one?" "Took her first step yesterday." "Yeah." "Spastic little bugger." "So, what happened?" "Nothing good." "I got some guys out canvassing now." "Looks about 16, probably a student over at Carson." "And a good one, too -- physics, trigonometry." "Pockets inside out, and they had to stab him and take his shoes." "Mm, and he fought back, too." "Defensive cuts, skin under his fingernails." "S.I.D.?" "On its way, and the detectives." "But, hell, they should just pay you double and be done with it." "I like the way you think, Jim." "Whoa!" "Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!" "No!" "No!" "My boy!" "My boy!" "Get back." "No!" "My boy!" "No!" "Sarge!" "Is she okay?" "What about you?" "Are you okay?" "Yeah, I'm fine." "I'm fine." "We'll get an R.A. Unit." "No!" "No!" "I just got the wind knocked out of me." "That's all." "I'm okay." "Mr. Wheedle, we have asked you and your very flat followers?" "To get up now numerous times!" "Have we not?" "!" "Keep going, Suzi, get this!" "Five separate warnings, all of which you have ignored -- is that correct, sir?" " Time!" "What's the time?" " 9 minutes, 12 seconds." "Get that film crew filming us." "That'll be extra cool." "Hey, Coop, these idiots ain't even protesting anything." "No "Down with the war," no "Wall Street sucks."" "It's a freaking contest." "They're calling it a plank-off or something retarded like that." "I guess there's groups like this all over town that lay down in front of traffic for as long as possible so they can can post it on YouTube." "Yeah, we got that." "Well, what are we standing here for, then?" "!" "Just a minute, Dewey." "Dewey!" "Just want to make sure no one is confused." "Who's confused?" "!" "They're blocking Hollywood Boulevard, for God's sakes!" "Shut up." "I say we soften 'em up with our sticks a little bit, and when they're good and mushy, we yank 'em up by their privates." " Dewey, shut up." " That'll get their planks off." " Dewey!" " U.C. Davis ain't got shit on me, baby!" " Dewey!" " What?" "!" "Shut up." "They're over there, John." "They can't hear a freaking thing I'm saying!" "All right, final warning, folks!" "We count down from five, and then we get you up, with or without your cooperation!" "What do we need for the record?" " 5, 4..." " 2 minutes, 37!" " ...3, 2, 1." " 3, 2, 1." " All right, let's go." " All right." "Sir, we can do this your way, or we can do it my way." "You either get up, or I'm gonna step on your neck." " That's a wise decision." " I'm gonna sit you up." "Wise decision, my friend." "Living in the streets -- okay." "But lying in the streets 'cause you got nothing else better to do?" "I mean, come on, this little misdemeanor goof..." "What happens if one of them got killed, run over?" "I mean, we get the guns and the -- the training, so restraint is expected." "You know what?" "Sometimes it feels like we're the only ones out here who aren't allowed to be idiots." "Hey, you want me to pull over so you can chat 'em up?" "You should do stand-up." "Really." "No, man, it's a good thing." "The more you lower your standards, the better your odds of finding true love." "Yeah?" "How's that working out for you?" "Well, it's like my dad said when I hit puberty " ""Samo, if you're anything like me," ""you won't go to bed with any ugly girls, but you will wake up with a bunch."" "Yeah, one of them's your mom." "Yo..." "My mom's got a brain tumor." "I just found out, so just -- just leave my mom off limits, okay?" "Okay." "You" "Right there -- Lakers hat." "Street name's "F-Stop." Yeah." "All right." "Think he's gonna bolt?" "Let's hope so -- tack on some more time." "All right." "Yo, F-Stop, what are you doing this weekend, man?" "care, Bryant?" "Oh, you got me." "I don't care." "But whatever it is, it's time to cancel." "Come on." "Put that down." "Put that down!" "Put it on the ground!" "You gentlemen, get back against the wall." "Step out." "Step out." "Step out." "Just give me a reason to write you up." "Put your hands behind your head." "Interlock your fingers." "What are you doing out of jail, Spider?" " Hey, my mom gave me that hat, fool." " Yeah?" "Spread 'em." "Hey." "I ain't done shit, man!" "Yep." "That's the best part." "You were just too dumb to check in with your parole officer." "Well, I was gonna do that next week." "I've been busy with work." "Oh, yeah?" "Where you work at?" "I been looking for a job, man." "Your honor, I rest my case." "I'm surprised you haven't been able to find a job, F-Stop." "I keep getting harassed." "That's why." "Yeah, right." "Come here." "Why you got to do like that, man?" "Put your palms together." "Put your palms together." "I ain't no Houdini!" "Yeah, well, you never know." "Hey, homey, call my mom, dawg." "Tell her to call my lawyer!" "You gonna call his mom, Spider?" " No." " His mom's on welfare." "She ain't got no lawyer." "Have a nice day." "Hey you, Sammy, and your pretty-ass partner." " Today's your lucky day, F-Stop." " We're just too smart bitch." "Your lucky day." "Yeah, that's right." "Keep walking, bitch." "Stand up against the wall." " Me?" "!" " I'm sitting here." "Over here." "Over here." "I got rights, ese!" "Hands up." "Over here, over here, over here." "You know what, guys?" "Just get lost." "Get lost." "Get out of here." "Get out of here." "Go." "All right." "All right." "Get out of here!" "Go!" "You want to get cuffed, or you do you want to get the out of here?" " Do you want to let me go?" " You want to apologize?" "No, I'm not gonna apolo" "You want to get cuffed, or do you want to get the out of here?" "I'll give you one chance." "You ruined a year of my life, mother" "You want to get cuffed, or you want to get the out of here?" "Last chance." "I want to get the out of here!" " Say you're sorry." " You." " That's right, homey." " Get the out of here!" " Sergeant." " Yeah." "Meet Kyle." "What's wrong with him?" "Appar-- apparently, he didn't like the lunch they packed him today." "You're kidding me." "Nope." "Locked his family out, been throwing this tantrum ever since." "So they called the cops?" "Neighbors did." "If I was a kid and I was doing this, the cops would be here, all right, pulling my mama off of me." "Uh..." "Good afternoon, folks." "Little behavior problem?" "We just don't understand." "He's never taken it this far before." "This far?" "The Rightman Method, you know?" "It's a disciplinary thing." "I mean, it worked great with these two." "Whenever they'd throw fits, we'd let them go in the playroom and just wreck stuff." "Eventually, they learned they were wrecking their own toys, and they stopped." "But Kyle's..." "He's pushed the limits." "Yeah." "Looks like." "And you're just gonna let him trash your house?" "We don't have an extra key." "Your partner, shit." "He got nothing better to do than with me all the time, man?" "Yeah." "He thinks I killed that witness, drove the car or some shit." " It ain't true." " Mm-hmm." "All right, okay." "Six months for some parole shit?" "Jail's so full up, I'll be out of here in like two weeks." "Hey, F-Stop." "Did you forget something?" "Yeah." "To shank your bitch ass a few weeks back when I had the chance." "Oh, tough talk." "If this were 20 years ago, we'd have to beat you senseless." "But luckily..." "Luckily, there's no need." " What?" " That ain't mine." "Found this in the backseat, where Einstein here stuffed it." "Six months just became a year, asshole." "Bullshit!" "You planted that!" "Oh, shut the up!" "I'm gonna go book this." "Want me to bring you back some earplugs so you don't have to listen to this asshole?" "I'm okay, man." "I'm good." " Hey, you ain't like that fool." " Shut up." "You patted me down." "Did you see a pipe?" "Hey, tell it to your P.D. Put him in the cell." "He's putting a case on me, right in front of you!" "Get in there!" "You just gonna let him do it?" "!" "Get in there, man." "Get in there." "You gonna do me like this?" "You too?" "Shut up!" "You're lucky I have good eyesight, you little fool!" "Now, drop that and get over here." "Now!" "I told you to drop the gun!" "Sweetie, no!" "We don't lock doors." "And we don't break things that aren't in our playroom." "Remember our rule?" "That's it?" "Thank you, officers." "We'll take it from here." "Come on." "Sure." "Have a nice day." "Meet you back here in five years when we're picking that kid up for assault -- or worse." "So, you heard the call." "This woman's taking antidepressant drugs, and she is in a state." "Domestics are always volatile, so we proceed with caution." "What the hell's he doing pulling up so close?" "Damn it, Dewey." "Sir, step away from the car!" "She's crazy, man." "Step away from the car, please." "Step away from the car." "She's crazy, man!" "Ma'am, calm down." "He's a liar!" "He's a liar!" "He's a big, fat liar!" "Look what she did, man." "She's crazy!" "Calm down right now!" "Dewey, just call her out!" "Hey, I'm trying, okay?" "Just get her out, all right?" "She's freaking out!" "One second, please." "Oh, no, no!" "Okay, ma'am, you need to come out of the car." "Get away from me!" "No!" "That's it, that's it." "Yes!" "Yes!" "I'm not getting out!" "I'm not getting out!" " Dewey, she's reaching!" " I'm not getting out!" "I'm not getting out!" "Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!" "Ma'am, drop the knife!" "No!" "Get away from me!" "Get away from me!" "Ma'am, ma'am!" "Get away from me!" "Drop the knife!" "Drop the knife!" "He lied!" "Drop it now!" " Oh, shit, she's hurt!" " Get your arm out!" "She's hurt, ma'am!" "Get your arm out!" "Get your hand out!" "Get your hand out now!" "Get your hand out!" "She's hurt!" "Oh, shit!" "Hold it, man!" "She tripped on it!" "She's hurt, man!" "A57, I need an R.A. Unit at my location now." "Do you believe this crap?" "Huh?" "I see this all the time, man -- all the time." "You try to help people." "I mean, look, I could have taken her a little bit more seriously, considered her a little bit more of a threat, right?" "But I don't want to go by the book all the time." "I want to help these people." "And that's what I wanted to show you." "Take advantage of this Kodak moment, baby." "Look, man..." "She's bleeding over there like a stuck pig." "She got lucky -- just a knife wound." "I almost stuck three rounds in her chest -- blam!" "Blam!" "Blam!" "They'd have been burying her ass tomorrow." "Look at his face." "Oh, shit." "Turn that thing on, man." "Let's do this." "Ask me whatever you want." "Okay." "All units, a 211 just occurred." "Suspect stole victim's iPhone." "Suspect's a male hispanic, dark jeans, plaid shirt, last seen running westbound on 5th Street from Maple Avenue." "L40, show me responding on 5th Street." "Shit." "L40, Roger." "Hey!" "Hey!" "Stop!" "Shit." "L40, code 1." "L40, I'm in the alley south of 5th Street Between..." "Between Main and Los Angeles." "I need an R.A. Unit at my location." "L40, Roger." "R.A. Unit en route." "Oh." "Do I think my partner should have tackled her?" "No." "She should have shot her." ""That ain't mine!" "You planted it!"" "Man, asshole should get an Oscar." "We'll see how he likes the role of boy toy in the joint." "You're not hungry?" "I thought you loved this place." "Not in the mood." ""Not in the mood"?" "Then why'd you order the Hollenback?" "Hey, there's a party tonight at Jones'." "But there's gonna be pretty girls there." "I hope you're okay with that." "I did a good pat-down on F-Stop." "I didn't phone it in." "Hmm." "Probably had it in his waistband." "You couldn't feel it through the jeans." "No, no, I got down in there." "I even cuffed him gangster-style." " Oh." " You hear what I'm saying?" "Well..." "Come on, man." "You're screwing me -- with me." "That look on your face -- this is all leading up to a joke, right?" " He didn't have the pipe, Sammy." " Good one." "He didn't have the pipe." "Come on, man." "He couldn't have had the pipe." "On the 1% chance I missed it, he couldn't get in his pockets." "He couldn't stuff it in the seat." "Look." "I'm sorry you had a bad day in court." "Having a witness you talked into testifying killed sucks." "But putting a case on this asshole..." "It's going too far, Sammy." "Sammy." "Sammy!" "I got to use the head." "I'll meet you at the car." "Did I do the right thing?" "Okay." "Yeah, well, you know, I don't know." "Tomorrow when the headline reads," ""Woman stabbed during fight with police,"" "you know, and they run a photo of her and they call her a loving mother of two, they're not gonna tell you that, you know, the alternative for us was to shoot her." "Yeah." "That's how they train you to disarm someone, so..." "Did I do the right thing or the wrong " "I don't know." "I guess it just depends on who you ask." "Hey, yo, guess what." "Hitting a dealer's pad around midnight." "That's cool." "Where'd you get the intel?" "That crackhead we brought in this morning?" "Narco dicks are into him." "He'll be working off a case." "Yeah, you got to love snitches." "Yep." "So, listen, uh, you guys didn't find a crack pipe in there, did you?" "Asshole's playing it straight, saying he had one when we hooked him up, but then he shoved it in the backrest." "You guys didn't check the car before you handed it over to us?" "I thought Darga did." "We got a little sloppy." "Hey, you're supposed to check it, too, before going out." "We got a help call." "Did you find the thing or not?" "Yeah." "My partner did." "Great." "So you'll slip it to us." "Nobody's got to know." "It's not just property." "It's evidence." " We thought it belonged to our guy." " Ah, shit." "We just leave it that way?" "Come on, man." "I just didn't " " I didn't want anybody to find out." "Chain of custody and all that shit." "We got to go to -- we got to go to Rucker." "We got to..." "We got to tell 'em we screwed up." "All right." "Maybe if we go together, we'll only catch half the shit." "Expired tags." "Sir, pull over when it is safe to do so." "He's flipping out right now." "Sir, it's okay." "Calm down." "Black-and-white fever." "Guys see a cop behind them, they forget how to drive." "Oh, great." "Sir, stay right where you are, please." " Sorry, officer." " That's fine, sir." "Stay right where you are." " Was I driving too fast?" " License and registration." " I think it's in the glove box." " I'll get it." "My license." "I forgot it at home with my wallet." "This your car?" "No." "It's my friend Marta's." "You know that the registration expired eight months ago?" "No." "Well, it has." "By law, I'm required to cite both of you and impound the vehicle." "Oh, officer, I beg you!" "I have a job interview in one hour." "I've been waiting on it for months." "With a kid in the car at this time of day?" "I'm taking him to my mother's house, and then I'm heading to Mid-South Supply in Boyle Heights." "They make pipe fittings." "Stay here for a second." "Put this man and his kid out on the street in the middle of the day and the day of his big meeting?" "Can you guys step over there, please?" "We're not even technically on duty right now." "What do you want to do?" "Let him go." "Turn that off." "No, seriously." "Turn it off." "Go take care of the registration." "Right." "Thank you, officer." "Thank you." "I told you to turn it off." "You think I'm an idiot?" "Basically, we're screwed either way." "Either we tackle a knife-wielding crazy woman -- what?" " I'm sorry." " We got to -- can you say that again?" "Say what again?" "What you were talking about." "We had a microphone in the shot." "Can you just go ahead?" "We'll edit it." "Thought we had microphones." "All right, here we go." "And just -- just go ahead and continue to talk about what happened." "So, I'm working for these guys?" "Just get it over with." "Uh..." "Let's see." "Uh, basically..." "Basically, we're screwed either way." "I mean, we tackle a knife-wielding crazy woman, and we catch hell for that, or we let a guy like this go, and we might catch hell for that." "Could have been an integrity check." "What's an integrity check?" "It's a trap by our own department to see if we would let him off." "You wonder why cops are paranoid?" "What if he speeds now and kills someone?" "I'd love to see that headline." "Yeah, it'd be us making pipe fittings." "Yeah, "The cops had him in custody."" "Sometimes, what can you say?" "The guy needed a break." "Yeah." "That hit you took to the abdomen caused a small placental abruption -- basically a small bleed." "But the ultrasound looked good." "Heartbeat's normal." "So if you take it easy for the next couple of days, get some bed rest, and stay hydrated, you and your baby should be just fine." "Great." "Thank you." "What are you doing out there, Sergeant?" "Doesn't the department have protocols about pregnant women in the field?" "I haven't told them yet." "I'm actually a detective." "I was just subbing in the field today." "My work doesn't have the same hazards." "News flash, detective -- it's not just about you anymore." "Is there anyone we can call, maybe come drive you home?" "No, I'll get one of the officers around here to take me back to the station." "Right." "The nurse will be right with you, get you on your way." "Thank you." "I assume Rucker told you the, uh..." "Crack pipe wasn't..." "Yeah." "Guess he did." "Sammy, I don't know how " "I don't know why I just jumped to you putting a case on that asshole instead of me possibly being wrong." "I don't know why I did that." "It was stupid." "I'm sorry." "Okay, what else has changed since I've been on the force?" "I don't know." "Um..." "Okay " " GPS." "Yeah." "Everyone thinks it's great." "But response times are reduced, so cops are getting to crime scenes faster, and, you know, more of us are getting killed." "You know what?" "That's -- that's it, guys." "We -- we got to head back." "All right, we're done." "Let's turn that thing off." "Seriously, turn it off." "All available units, report of a fight in progress, corner of Hollywood Boulevard and Schrader." "Six blocks away." "Should we take it?" "A57, show us responding to fight, Hollywood and Schrader." "57, Roger." " Get off of him!" " Get out of here!" "Hey!" "A57, officer needs backup, our location." "Let me get in there." "I'll mess you up!" "I will mess you up!" "I will mess you up!" "You're gonna die!" "I'm God!" "Get off me!" "Get off me!" "Cooper!" "Cooper!" "A57, I need an R.A. Unit at my location right now!" "Schrader!" "Schrader and Hollywood!" "Stay with me!" "Stay with me!" "Shut that thing off!" "Stay with me." "Cooper, look at me." "Look at me." "Shut that thing off!" "Do you want to catch a cop getting killed on film?" "!" " Is that what you wanted?" "!" " Get the out of here!" "Cooper?" "Okay, look at me." "Look at me!" "John, look at me." "Help is on the way, okay?" "Stay with me." "You're gonna stay with me, okay?" "Breathe normally." "It's okay." "Keep pressure on it." "Keep pressure on it." "== sync, corrected by elderman =="
