"This is your rookie evaluation for... your report card." "he says your trainer office thinks you are a good cop." "he says one day that he thinks you are gonna be a great cop." "This is an excellent evaluation, mcnally." "Let me talk you through the categories" "Problem solving, report writing, uniform" "You get very high marks across the board." " You're not smiling." " I'm sorry." "Um..." "I'm glad it's a good evaluation." "It's just that..." "What happened tonight really scared the hell out of me." "It should." "You had a rough shift." "No, it's not just this one shift, sir." "It's every single shift." "It's like it's all adding up." "It's creeping up on me," "And it just took today for me to finally see it." "See what?" "The cost of doing this job." "Any more intel yet?" "Negative, and we still don't know if it's happening Before or after shift." "Uh, your tie is on crooked." "I can't get this thing to sit right." "Relax." "They can't fire us For not knowing how to tie a tie, right?" "The uniform makes the cop, okay?" "Plus it's a clip-on." "I don't know why you guys are so worried." "They're just evaluations." "Of course she's not worried." "No, like, worst-case scenario- you won't get cut loose." "You'll still have to ride with your t.O.," "Or big deal-you'll get transferred to another division." "I cannot get transferred, okay?" "I mean, this is my family." "3:00." "Don't look." "I said don't look." "He's holding yellow forms." "What, you think those are them?" "Can you-honestly, can you relax?" "You're gonna know what he says soon enough." "Those are definitely them." "(fax machine whirring)" "Hey, I think he forgot some." "Well, we should probably take those back to him right away." "I mean, before somebody else accidentally finds 'em." "Okay, but we're not looking at them." ""diaz is great at following the rules," "But he has to step up, learn to think for himself."" "There's no way they're cutting me loose!" "See, I told you we shouldn't have read this." "At least yours doesn't say," ""I'm concerned about epstein's level of professionalism." "He needs to take the job more seriously."" "I can't believe oliver wrote this about me." "Hey, there you guys are." "Everything all right?" "Yes, sir." "Uh, yes, sir." "Good." "Listen, evaluations after shift tonight." "So, uh, go ahead and spread the word." "So what do we do now?" "We got one last shift to serve, protect," "Prove everybody else wrong." "So then he says that he broke up with the yoga instructor," "And he wants to clean up his act." "He wants to try again, and..." "I mean, I don't know." "Having him around would make this job easier." "But then there's jerry, right?" "Right?" "Do I look like oprah to you?" "You said you wanted me to distract you." "Yeah, with something that I'm interested in hearing." "Well, you want to give me a heads-up on my evaluation?" "Does it say that, uh," "You know, my childcare situation" "Has made me unreliable?" "Or that you question my priorities?" "Uh, would I be asking you to stick a needle in my ass" "If I thought that a woman couldn't be a single mom" "And a good cop?" "Hey." "Hey, sunshine." "Can I talk to you for a second?" "I see "sunshine" was a little off the mark." "Look, you got nothing to worry about." "You're gonna get cut loose." "Yeah, well, it's actually about my dad." "Is he okay?" "You know how he's been going to those meetings Every night this week?" "I went to go meet him there tonight, and he didn't show up." "I mean, what if something happened?" "Maybe he just went to another meeting." "detective callaghan, h.Q. On line four." "Look, andy, I'm sorry." "I have to take this, okay?" "I'm sure he's fine." "It's a door, mcnally." "You knock, it opens." "you all right?" "Yeah." "Nothing a solid ten hours on the job can't fix." "Yeah, be careful with that." "Putting on the uniform to get away from your life" "Makes it harder and harder to take it off." "Well, thank you for your concern," "But I have no problem taking it off." "I mean..." "You know what I mean." "Dad, where are you?" "I'm kind of freaking out a little." "All right, please just call me." "I've never seen you do a proper radio check before, epstein." "Did you and diaz switch bodies or something?" "I'm just trying to focus on the job." "oh." "Did, uh..." "Uh, I sleep with you and I forgot to call?" "I just want to do the job right, sir." "Mm." "All right, well, let's get right on to the food." "You get to choose today." "Yes, sir." "Falafel, burrito..." "You want to go for a burger?" "I'm not really hungry."

"We need to separate them," "Find out all that we can about julia" "Who her friends were, if she had a boyfriend, If she was depressed." "Wait." "Depressed?" "Do you think it was a suicide?" "I have no idea, mcnally." "That's why we need to ask." "Do you want to take the mother?" "What do I even say?" "She obviously doesn't want to talk to me." "All right, take the sister." "Find out what she knows." "Um, did julia have a lot of friends?" "Please don't do that." "Don't talk about her in the past tense." "I'm sorry." "I'm sure you probably just want me to go away" "So that you and your mother can grieve in peace." "My mom's not waiting to grieve." "She's just like that now." "Well, it was probably really hard for her" "To be away from you guys so often." "She wasn't always like this." "When julia and me were little," "And she'd come back from her tour," "She'd want us to sleep in her bed." "It was the only way she could sleep," "Knowing we were close and safe." "And now?"

"I don't really know how to ask you this." "Do you think julia woulever hurt herself?" "What?" "Ashley, if we're gonna find out exactly what happened," "I'm gonna need you to help me." "She would never have done that to mom." "She just wouldn't have." "Who is it?" "Uh, it's..." "It's just a personal call." "Is that how it's gonna be from now on?" "Every time the phone rings... hoping it's someone calling to say" "You made a mistake?" "You guys came to the parttogether?" "No." "She went to get us some booze first" "With her sister's I.D." "Which we realize is totally illegal," "And we swear, we've never done it before." "Did she do that a lot- drink?" "Party?" "She used to think getting crunked was lame." "But lately..." "She's been drinking and..." "Stuff." "All right." "I know you guys are scared." "You know that other officer," "The one who took your phones?" "He's my b.F.F." "Now if something happened to him," "No matter how scared I was," "I'd want his parents to know the truth." "There's this guy, adam." "Julia been dating him for a couple months." "He's a total wheel show." "He dates everyone." "Anyway, they broke up." "He's a complete douche nozzle." "Was he here tonight?" "He took her upstairs." "He said he needed to talk to her." "The next thing we knew, they were screaming at each other" "Like they were gonna kill each other.*************" "You've done this before, so you know the drill." "Yeah, you take the lead." "I'm gonna ride shotgun." "Yeah." "This is just a warm-up." "If he coughs up" "Anything relevant, we gotta call in the d's." "Doesn't look good, adam." "Please, I didn't do anything."

"She was super drunk, and, you know, she" "I told her she shouldn't be drinking," "And-and she said she felt sick," "And so she needed some fresh air." "So she's super drunk, but you let her go out on the roof?" "She was being all dramatic, and she was yelling at me" "And saying that, you know, she didn't care if she fell" "And, you know, she didn't care if it was over." "Look, I know I-I shouldn't have let her go out there," "But I swear she fell." "And you just ran?" "I didn't know what else to do." "I was eaked out." "You could have called 9-1-1, tried to get help," "Tried to save her life." "I saw what she looked like down there," "And there was nothing to save." "Nothing to save?" "You know that's a human being that you're talking about?" "That's not what- what I meant." "No, it's not like she's a nobody." "You can't just push a girl off a roof, Walk away and forget about it." "I didn't push her!" "It's not my fault!" "Calm down." "Calm down." "She shouldn't have been drinking in the first place." "Why not?" "Why shouldn't she have been drinking?" "Huh?" "Hmm?" "She's a girl." "You know what I mean." "No, I don't know what you mean." "Whatever it is you're not telling us, adam," "It's time you came clean, okay?" "Adam?" "Got it." "things just got worse." "what?" "Boyfriend told swarek that julia was pregnant." "He was on the roof with her." "Says she fell." "Yeah, or she was pushed." "Yeah, or maybe she doesn't want to be pregnant, so she jumps." "No, I don't think she jumped." "Even ashley said her sister would never hurt herself." "Okay, so that's what ashley says." "But maybe her mom knows different." "No, I think she's right." "Look, a parent like that" "Stressed out and head somewhere else" "Julia would have never wanted to hurt her." "I know." "All right." "Well, now I gotta hurt her." "How can we possibly Tell those poor people more bad news?" "'cause that's our job." "Are you all right?" "yeah." "I just want to be alone." "These kids are gonna be grounded r life." "Yeah, that's getting off easy." "There's a dead girl outside." "Man, and none of these kids saw her fall?" "Dude, are you still working on the cell phones?" "Yeah." "Manual says you should do a full inventory" "Of personal property." "Relax with the manual." "Didn't you learn anything from your evaluation?" "Come on." "Don't tell me to relax," "I mean, it's not my fault I don't think following procedure is a joke, okay?" "I mean, at least I do that instead of goofing off." "Right, 'cause being a mindless grunt is so much better." "Better than being a child." "I mean, "hey, dude, how's the washing machine work?" "When's garbage day?" garbage day?" "You have a machine that crushes up your pop cans." "So?" "So real men use their hands." "Yeah, well, I guess real men also date strippers." "Real coppers put their skills to use."

"How do you go from one to the other?" "I don't know." "And there's a part of you" "That knows you should open up to her" "Because she needs you." "But you can't do it..." "Because if you crack that armor" "Long enough to let her in," "Then you have to go back over there with it cracked." "I understand." "(voice breaking) you don't understand." "Can you possibly understand?" "You wait." "You wait another ten years." "You just wait until this job has ruined every relationship" "You've ever tried to have." "You wait until some stranger knocks on your door" "To tell you that your baby's dead." "And th worst thing is..." "You aren't even surprised" "Because everyone you've ever loved," "Everyone who's gotten close to you," "Eventually turns to dust." "This is not your fault." "Oh, my god." "It is my fault..." "Don't." "Don't." "Because she needed me," "And I wasn't there for her." "Put the gun down!" "Mom, please!" "No, don't." "Get back." "Stop." "Put it down now!" "if you pull that trigger, all you'll be is a selfish woman" "Who forced her 21-year-old daughter" "To bury her whole family in one day." "Are you goa do that to her?"

"He was outside when the fight started." "I guess he thought it was funny or something." "And donkey here doesn't think to bring it to us right away?" "Actually, sir, he doesn' remember taking the video." "Well, how did you find it?" "It was chris' idea to search the phones." "Oh?" "Good work, diaz." "Thank you, sir." "Don't know how to turn this off." "Oh, uh..." "And, you, with the two girls." "Whatever those are, wipe 'em off your faces." "You gotta get back for your evaluations." "Hup two, hup, hup."

"I'm saying I'm scared" "Of what happens when you wear your uniform too long," "Like that woman tonight." "That woman lost a child." "That woman screwed up her life" "Because she couldn't take her uniform off." "You think that's gonna happen to you?" "It already is happening to me." "Every night, I lie in bed weighing my decisions." "That family tonight-the pain that I brought into their home" "How am I supposed to just take my uniform off" "And forget about that?" "You don't." "You've had a heavy year, andy." "It's okay to be affected by it." "No one expects you to be able to just brush it off." "Every bad call is- is like a ghost..." "And I know firsthand what shoving all those ghosts" "Into a closet can do to a cop." "You mean your old man?" "I'm sorry." "what if that happens to me?" "Listen..." "The uniform does not make the cop." "Andy, listen to me." "The uniform does not make the cop." "You-the cop- makes the uniform." "There are as many ways to do this job" "As there are cops who do it." "Give me the badge." "You've been carrying around your father's badge." "It's a nice gesture, keeping it in the family."
