1
00:00:01,457 --> 00:00:03,328
Previously on SWAT...You know Lee Durham?
2
00:00:03,372 --> 00:00:05,243
The new kid that just
joined 60-Squad?
3
00:00:05,287 --> 00:00:06,157
He gave me this book.
4
00:00:06,201 --> 00:00:07,158
It promotes surveilling citizens
5
00:00:07,202 --> 00:00:08,246
with no criminal ties.
6
00:00:08,290 --> 00:00:09,421
When he gave me
the book, he used
7
00:00:09,465 --> 00:00:11,423
the words "walk with dignity."
8
00:00:11,467 --> 00:00:13,947
I remembered that-that list of
white nationalist code phrases.
9
00:00:13,991 --> 00:00:16,733
Yeah, how'd it go? "I aim
to walk the path with dignity."
10
00:00:16,776 --> 00:00:18,082
"Pure of body and spirit."
11
00:00:18,126 --> 00:00:19,562
He worked patrol
in Granada Hills.
12
00:00:19,605 --> 00:00:22,043
Black residents make up
five percent of that population.
13
00:00:22,086 --> 00:00:24,001
-30% of Durham's arrests.
-Targeting?
14
00:00:24,045 --> 00:00:25,568
When Durham said those words
to you, it might've been
15
00:00:25,611 --> 00:00:27,831
an attempt to feel you out.
You can use it the same way.
16
00:00:27,874 --> 00:00:30,225
-Deacon, nice to see you, man.
Gibson and Ellis.
17
00:00:30,268 --> 00:00:31,617
Man, I haven't seen
you clowns in ages.
18
00:00:31,661 --> 00:00:33,750
Here's to walking
the path with dignity.
19
00:00:33,793 --> 00:00:36,405
Pure of body and spirit.
20
00:00:37,580 --> 00:00:39,234
Told you guys.
21
00:00:49,766 --> 00:00:51,855
Keep punching.
22
00:00:55,728 --> 00:00:57,687
You were right about Durham
and the code phrase.
23
00:00:57,730 --> 00:00:58,862
-What happened?
-Well, last night,
24
00:00:58,905 --> 00:01:00,168
he had a little
backyard get-together.
25
00:01:00,211 --> 00:01:02,126
I went.
26
00:01:02,170 --> 00:01:05,434
He made a toast using the
first half of the phrase.
27
00:01:05,477 --> 00:01:07,088
"Walk with dignity."
28
00:01:08,785 --> 00:01:12,136
When I responded with
the second half, he lit up.
29
00:01:12,180 --> 00:01:14,834
It's like he was pleased
I was one of them.
30
00:01:15,879 --> 00:01:17,359
He wasn't the only cop there.
31
00:01:17,402 --> 00:01:18,708
I saw two other guys I know
32
00:01:18,751 --> 00:01:20,144
from my patrol days,
Gibson and Ellis.
33
00:01:20,188 --> 00:01:22,494
You tell Hicks yet?
34
00:01:22,538 --> 00:01:24,496
No.
35
00:01:27,543 --> 00:01:29,327
Still trying to make
sense of this.
36
00:01:29,371 --> 00:01:31,416
Make sense of what, man?
37
00:01:32,548 --> 00:01:34,463
If these guys are walking
around with a badge and a gun,
38
00:01:34,506 --> 00:01:36,160
using racist beliefs
to do their job,
39
00:01:36,204 --> 00:01:37,596
they don't belong
on the force, period.
40
00:01:37,640 --> 00:01:38,815
Maybe they were
just blowing off steam.
41
00:01:38,858 --> 00:01:40,208
Maybe it was the beers talking.
42
00:01:40,251 --> 00:01:42,819
Or maybe you're just
making excuses for them now.
43
00:01:42,862 --> 00:01:44,864
Do you know how many
squared away cops
44
00:01:44,908 --> 00:01:47,040
I have heard say questionable
things and not mean it?
45
00:01:47,084 --> 00:01:49,173
No, Deacon.
46
00:01:49,217 --> 00:01:51,349
I can't imagine.
47
00:01:51,393 --> 00:01:54,047
Because when I walk up to those
same cops, they go silent.
48
00:01:54,091 --> 00:01:56,137
That stuff doesn't fly anymore.
49
00:01:57,225 --> 00:01:59,705
So, what do you suggest I do?
50
00:01:59,749 --> 00:02:01,577
Go to Internal Affairs,
get these guys fired
51
00:02:01,620 --> 00:02:03,753
over backyard beer talk?
52
00:02:03,796 --> 00:02:05,668
You can't just do nothing.
53
00:02:05,711 --> 00:02:07,191
I'm not doing nothing.
54
00:02:07,235 --> 00:02:09,150
I'm telling you.
55
00:02:18,985 --> 00:02:21,074
Good morning, Venice!
56
00:02:22,293 --> 00:02:23,555
This is exactly
57
00:02:23,599 --> 00:02:24,991
what you think it is.
58
00:02:25,035 --> 00:02:26,819
Follow our instructions
and we'll be gone
59
00:02:26,863 --> 00:02:28,169
before you know it.
60
00:02:28,212 --> 00:02:29,909
All loose cash goes in the bag.
61
00:02:29,953 --> 00:02:31,520
Don't panic.
Don't worry
62
00:02:31,563 --> 00:02:32,869
if you miss a few bills.
63
00:02:32,912 --> 00:02:34,000
We're not greedy.
64
00:02:34,044 --> 00:02:36,481
Relax, we're on the same side.
65
00:02:36,525 --> 00:02:38,744
The bank's the only one
getting hurt today.
66
00:02:38,788 --> 00:02:41,617
Speaking of, where
is the manager?
67
00:02:41,660 --> 00:02:45,969
Come out before I shoot
this poor guard's head off.
68
00:02:46,012 --> 00:02:48,319
Hey, hey. Okay, okay,
okay. I'm right here.
69
00:02:48,363 --> 00:02:50,365
You bank big shots are
all the same.
70
00:02:50,408 --> 00:02:53,759
Cowards who care more
about money than people.
71
00:02:53,803 --> 00:02:56,109
-On your knees.
-No, come on, man.
72
00:03:00,331 --> 00:03:02,507
All units, 211 in progress.
73
00:03:02,551 --> 00:03:05,206
Silent alarm activated
at Windward and Pacific.
74
00:03:07,295 --> 00:03:08,861
This is 25-David off-duty.
75
00:03:08,905 --> 00:03:10,602
I'm two blocks away. Responding.
76
00:03:17,218 --> 00:03:18,523
Why are you crying?
77
00:03:18,567 --> 00:03:20,351
It's not even your money,
it's theirs.
78
00:03:20,395 --> 00:03:24,094
You just make the rules about
how much of it they can have.
79
00:03:24,137 --> 00:03:26,705
They are the real hostages.
80
00:03:26,749 --> 00:03:29,317
Now you get to see how it feels.
81
00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:31,406
Your life is
in my hands now.
82
00:03:32,407 --> 00:03:34,235
Doesn't feel good, does it?
83
00:03:34,278 --> 00:03:36,237
Let's go!
84
00:03:38,413 --> 00:03:41,546
We will deliver this back
to working people!
85
00:03:41,590 --> 00:03:43,722
LAPD! Drop your weapons!
86
00:03:54,385 --> 00:03:56,692
Robbery's one thing,
murder's another. Let's talk.
87
00:03:56,735 --> 00:03:59,869
I will save the real
victims of this city.
88
00:04:01,697 --> 00:04:03,655
Ma'am, you all right?
89
00:04:03,699 --> 00:04:06,049
I think so.
90
00:04:09,313 --> 00:04:11,533
LAPD!
91
00:04:11,576 --> 00:04:13,099
-Drop the weapon!
-Hey, hey, I'm a cop.
92
00:04:13,143 --> 00:04:14,840
-I'm a cop!
-Now, or we shoot!
93
00:04:14,884 --> 00:04:17,669
I'm off-duty SWAT.
My badge is clipped to my pants.
94
00:04:17,713 --> 00:04:19,410
-Don't move!
-There was a robbery.
The van's getting away!
95
00:05:06,892 --> 00:05:09,025
Mix-up really that
entertaining?
96
00:05:09,068 --> 00:05:12,463
Well, yes. But I think
these guys are the real draw.
97
00:05:12,507 --> 00:05:15,379
We will deliver this back
to working people!
98
00:05:15,423 --> 00:05:19,514
End crony capitalism,
or we will end it for you!
99
00:05:19,557 --> 00:05:21,167
A crew with a cause?
100
00:05:21,211 --> 00:05:23,692
That guy I faced off with thinks
he's a robber for the people.
101
00:05:23,735 --> 00:05:25,302
You believe him,
or this all show?
102
00:05:25,346 --> 00:05:27,609
Don't know yet.
103
00:05:27,652 --> 00:05:29,567
I let your bank robbers
get away.
104
00:05:29,611 --> 00:05:31,439
Don't beat yourself up.
You did more than you think.
105
00:05:31,482 --> 00:05:33,397
One of the crew dropped his gun
during your chase.
106
00:05:33,441 --> 00:05:34,877
Ballistics is processing it now.
107
00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:37,009
How long has Robbery-Homicide
been after these guys?
108
00:05:37,053 --> 00:05:37,923
About a month.
109
00:05:37,967 --> 00:05:38,837
This is their fourth robbery.
110
00:05:38,881 --> 00:05:40,491
Same team of three every time.
111
00:05:40,535 --> 00:05:42,188
They roll in,
knock around the bank manager,
112
00:05:42,232 --> 00:05:43,233
take what they can.
113
00:05:43,276 --> 00:05:44,756
Total take's over 200 grand.
114
00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:46,105
Yeah, but why beat
on the manager?
115
00:05:46,149 --> 00:05:47,585
It's not like it gets them
a bigger score.
116
00:05:47,629 --> 00:05:49,195
The spectacle's part of
their pattern, too.
117
00:05:49,239 --> 00:05:50,588
These guys aren't camera shy.
118
00:05:50,632 --> 00:05:51,937
This is from
their last robbery.
119
00:05:51,981 --> 00:05:54,331
This money's for you,
Los Angeles!
120
00:05:55,767 --> 00:05:57,029
Who keeps filming them?
It doesn't look like
121
00:05:57,073 --> 00:05:58,944
it was just caught
on some bystander's phone.
122
00:05:58,988 --> 00:06:00,206
Nah, you see that
watermark in the corner?
123
00:06:00,250 --> 00:06:02,383
That's a way for stringers
124
00:06:02,426 --> 00:06:04,036
or independent cameramen to mark
their material
125
00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:05,386
when they sell it to the news.
126
00:06:05,429 --> 00:06:07,257
My brother Terry chases
this kind of stuff.
127
00:06:07,300 --> 00:06:09,607
Flame's on both videos,
they're shot by the same person.
128
00:06:09,651 --> 00:06:11,217
I already called the TV station.
129
00:06:11,261 --> 00:06:12,654
They won't say
who gave them the footage.
130
00:06:12,697 --> 00:06:13,655
You know what, Terry might know.
131
00:06:13,698 --> 00:06:14,743
Stringers all swim
132
00:06:14,786 --> 00:06:16,701
in the same circles.
133
00:06:16,745 --> 00:06:19,051
Looks like we caught a break.
Ballistics got a hit
134
00:06:19,095 --> 00:06:21,706
on the dropped gun.
Registered to a Scott Zarba.
135
00:06:21,750 --> 00:06:25,057
The gun from today also
matches a slug pulled
136
00:06:25,101 --> 00:06:26,929
from the wall of the Jericho
Pharmacy last year.
137
00:06:26,972 --> 00:06:28,713
That was an RHD case
we never solved.
138
00:06:28,757 --> 00:06:30,672
Retired cop was unlucky
enough to be there
139
00:06:30,715 --> 00:06:32,064
when the place was robbed.
140
00:06:32,108 --> 00:06:33,675
Pulled his personal weapon,
ended up paralyzed.
141
00:06:33,718 --> 00:06:35,764
The guy I chased was masked,
but the description of Zarba,
142
00:06:35,807 --> 00:06:37,592
that sounds like the robber
I squared off with.
143
00:06:37,635 --> 00:06:39,550
Burrows, let me tag along
to pick him up.
144
00:06:39,594 --> 00:06:41,247
I might be able to I.D. him.
145
00:06:41,291 --> 00:06:42,814
Commander?
146
00:06:42,858 --> 00:06:44,337
Got a second?
147
00:06:44,381 --> 00:06:46,427
What's up?
148
00:06:48,254 --> 00:06:50,343
You're closing the door.
149
00:06:50,387 --> 00:06:51,606
That's never a good sign.
150
00:06:51,649 --> 00:06:53,782
Sir, you told me a ways back
151
00:06:53,825 --> 00:06:55,479
that the brass was committed
to improving
152
00:06:55,523 --> 00:06:57,133
how it handles
racial violations.
153
00:06:57,176 --> 00:06:59,004
Have you seen something
you need to report?
154
00:07:00,310 --> 00:07:02,747
I'm not saying that I did.
155
00:07:02,791 --> 00:07:05,184
But let's say I know an officer
with firsthand knowledge
156
00:07:05,228 --> 00:07:07,056
about a group of active,
racist cops.
157
00:07:08,318 --> 00:07:10,189
Now this officer may not want
to come forward
158
00:07:10,233 --> 00:07:12,975
because he knows
the case wouldn't get anywhere.
159
00:07:13,018 --> 00:07:14,498
But I want to know
160
00:07:14,542 --> 00:07:17,022
what the department will do
to guarantee that it does?
161
00:07:18,763 --> 00:07:20,809
Well, um...
162
00:07:22,506 --> 00:07:25,117
I'm supposed to tell you
163
00:07:25,161 --> 00:07:28,120
this officer needs to report
these racist cops
164
00:07:28,164 --> 00:07:30,079
to I.A. immediately.
165
00:07:30,122 --> 00:07:32,385
We'll stick 'em
on administrative duty,
166
00:07:32,429 --> 00:07:34,562
investigate the claims,
167
00:07:34,605 --> 00:07:36,389
and if they're guilty,
168
00:07:36,433 --> 00:07:37,913
we'll fire their asses.
169
00:07:39,654 --> 00:07:42,178
But we both know it never
actually works like that.
170
00:07:44,093 --> 00:07:46,182
Tell me something I don't know.
171
00:07:46,225 --> 00:07:48,097
I wish I could.
172
00:07:48,140 --> 00:07:51,056
But burden of proof is still
the same to make a charge stick.
173
00:07:51,100 --> 00:07:54,103
Cops will always stick up
for their teammates.
174
00:07:54,146 --> 00:07:56,061
And union lawyers,
175
00:07:56,105 --> 00:07:58,063
they will fight tooth and nail
176
00:07:58,107 --> 00:08:00,109
to keep their clients' badges.
177
00:08:00,152 --> 00:08:02,851
So, after all that talk,
178
00:08:02,894 --> 00:08:05,723
system's still not set up
for good people to come forward.
179
00:08:05,767 --> 00:08:07,551
What do you want me to say?
180
00:08:07,595 --> 00:08:09,510
It comes down to hard evidence.
181
00:08:10,902 --> 00:08:12,904
Yeah, I know.
182
00:08:12,948 --> 00:08:14,166
Hondo?
183
00:08:16,473 --> 00:08:18,780
So are you gonna tell me
who I need to be worried about?
184
00:08:22,044 --> 00:08:23,828
It's not my place, sir.
185
00:08:27,092 --> 00:08:30,922
But maybe Durham could be next
up on Armory rotation.
186
00:08:37,320 --> 00:08:39,409
Scott Zarba?
LAPD.
187
00:08:39,452 --> 00:08:40,976
What do you want?
188
00:08:41,019 --> 00:08:42,760
How about you come out and
show us your hands for starters?
189
00:08:47,983 --> 00:08:48,940
Where were you this morning?
190
00:08:48,984 --> 00:08:50,594
Here, working on my ride.
191
00:08:50,638 --> 00:08:52,378
Then why'd we find your gun
at a bank that was robbed?
192
00:08:52,422 --> 00:08:54,206
40 caliber Sig.
193
00:08:54,250 --> 00:08:55,904
Purchased four years ago.
Ring a bell?
194
00:08:55,947 --> 00:08:57,601
You got the wrong guy.
195
00:08:57,645 --> 00:08:59,298
I lost that piece a while ago.
196
00:08:59,342 --> 00:09:01,126
Was that before or after
you robbed the Jericho Pharmacy
197
00:09:01,170 --> 00:09:02,693
and shot an off-duty cop?
198
00:09:13,965 --> 00:09:15,619
Okay, okay!
199
00:09:15,663 --> 00:09:17,273
I threw that gun away.
200
00:09:17,316 --> 00:09:18,796
Tossed it in a dumpster.
201
00:09:18,840 --> 00:09:19,971
But I didn't rob any bank.
202
00:09:20,015 --> 00:09:21,277
Been here all morning.
203
00:09:21,320 --> 00:09:22,626
Ask the neighbors.
204
00:09:23,975 --> 00:09:25,455
He's not the guy
I chased this morning.
205
00:09:25,498 --> 00:09:27,283
Still got him
on the pharmacy job.
206
00:09:27,326 --> 00:09:29,502
On your stomach.
Hands behind your back.
207
00:09:35,160 --> 00:09:36,727
Dom and Street,
come on in.
208
00:09:36,771 --> 00:09:38,033
Been waiting for you.
209
00:09:39,077 --> 00:09:42,124
Welcome to my little slice
of paradise.
210
00:09:42,167 --> 00:09:43,429
It's been a minute
since we caught up.
211
00:09:43,473 --> 00:09:44,692
Is it all good here?
212
00:09:44,735 --> 00:09:47,346
Yeah. Band upstairs
finally moved out.
213
00:09:47,390 --> 00:09:49,784
The Thai place across the street
knows my order by heart.
214
00:09:49,827 --> 00:09:53,265
Finally pulled the trigger
on a home entertainment system.
215
00:09:53,309 --> 00:09:55,093
So, yeah, life is good,
-my friend.
-Listen.
216
00:09:55,137 --> 00:09:56,355
We need your help with a case.
We're looking
217
00:09:56,399 --> 00:09:58,183
for a stringer
who shot some footage
218
00:09:58,227 --> 00:10:00,142
of a bank robbery.
219
00:10:00,185 --> 00:10:01,665
I would probably help you out.
I got out of the game
220
00:10:01,709 --> 00:10:03,928
-a couple months ago, though.
-You quit?
221
00:10:03,972 --> 00:10:06,365
-Yeah.
-But you shoot great stories.
What happened?
222
00:10:06,409 --> 00:10:08,933
These new kids,
they're video journalists.
223
00:10:08,977 --> 00:10:11,370
The competition is younger,
faster, cheaper.
224
00:10:11,414 --> 00:10:13,242
Just couldn't keep up.
225
00:10:13,285 --> 00:10:15,636
Don't...
226
00:10:15,679 --> 00:10:17,289
don't worry about me, Dom.
227
00:10:17,333 --> 00:10:19,683
I still catch
the 2:00 a.m. special
228
00:10:19,727 --> 00:10:21,554
at Mel's every night
with the old crew.
229
00:10:21,598 --> 00:10:23,731
Probably be nocturnal
for the rest of my life.
230
00:10:23,774 --> 00:10:25,384
You might still be able
to help us then.
231
00:10:25,428 --> 00:10:27,386
You know who shoots
with this logo?
232
00:10:27,430 --> 00:10:29,911
Mm. Her name's
Lindsey David.
233
00:10:29,954 --> 00:10:31,652
She puts a fire logo
on her things
234
00:10:31,695 --> 00:10:33,305
'cause she thinks
she's hot stuff.
235
00:10:33,349 --> 00:10:34,567
I'll see what we have on her.
236
00:10:34,611 --> 00:10:36,091
-Thanks, man.
-Yeah, brother.
237
00:10:38,310 --> 00:10:40,661
So, how much all this
set you back?
238
00:10:40,704 --> 00:10:43,707
Oh, I got more than I expected
when I sold off some of my gear.
239
00:10:43,751 --> 00:10:44,882
I have some free time
on my hands,
240
00:10:44,926 --> 00:10:46,275
so why not live a little, right?
241
00:10:46,318 --> 00:10:48,320
This doesn't sound
like much of a long-term plan.
242
00:10:48,364 --> 00:10:50,583
Don't stress, bro.
Something else will come along.
243
00:10:50,627 --> 00:10:53,021
-And how long's that gonna take?
-As long as it takes.
244
00:10:53,064 --> 00:10:56,328
Because the right wave comes
245
00:10:56,372 --> 00:10:58,635
when it comes.
246
00:11:02,683 --> 00:11:03,945
Hey, Deacon.
247
00:11:07,339 --> 00:11:09,994
What's up?
248
00:11:10,038 --> 00:11:12,301
I want to show you something.
249
00:11:12,344 --> 00:11:13,911
I looked into those other cops
that you mentioned
250
00:11:13,955 --> 00:11:15,565
from Durham's
little backyard luau.
251
00:11:15,608 --> 00:11:18,829
Gibson has a list
of excessive force complaints
252
00:11:18,873 --> 00:11:20,744
longer than my arm.
253
00:11:20,788 --> 00:11:23,399
Ellis switched
departments twice
254
00:11:23,442 --> 00:11:25,096
for undisclosed reasons.
255
00:11:26,750 --> 00:11:28,317
Both their arrest records
256
00:11:28,360 --> 00:11:30,319
are as racially skewed
as Durham's.
257
00:11:30,362 --> 00:11:32,887
Why are you showing me this?
258
00:11:32,930 --> 00:11:34,105
Because this isn't
just a few guys
259
00:11:34,149 --> 00:11:35,716
making jokes at a barbecue, man.
260
00:11:35,759 --> 00:11:38,675
This is a group of cops
whose screwed-up views on race
261
00:11:38,719 --> 00:11:41,069
have directly affected
their actions on the job.
262
00:11:43,811 --> 00:11:45,508
So what are we gonna
do about it?
263
00:11:46,509 --> 00:11:47,684
I already did something,
264
00:11:47,728 --> 00:11:49,991
I went to my team leader.
265
00:11:50,034 --> 00:11:51,775
What more do you expect from me?
266
00:11:51,819 --> 00:11:53,690
More.
267
00:11:53,734 --> 00:11:55,518
Are you really okay
with what you heard?
268
00:11:55,561 --> 00:11:57,128
No, of course not.
269
00:11:57,172 --> 00:11:59,609
But I'm not going to I.A. with
just my word against theirs.
270
00:11:59,652 --> 00:12:01,002
That's not enough.
271
00:12:01,045 --> 00:12:02,394
Those charges
would never stick.
272
00:12:02,438 --> 00:12:04,527
That's why we need
hard evidence.
273
00:12:04,570 --> 00:12:07,269
Evidence that Durham
and his pals can't deny.
274
00:12:08,270 --> 00:12:10,011
You want me to record them?
275
00:12:10,054 --> 00:12:11,577
Well, I highly doubt
that I'm gonna be invited
276
00:12:11,621 --> 00:12:12,796
to the next barbecue.
277
00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:14,580
Cops don't turn on other cops.
278
00:12:14,624 --> 00:12:16,582
But it's okay for them
to turn on Black people?
279
00:12:16,626 --> 00:12:18,236
Other minorities?
280
00:12:20,412 --> 00:12:22,675
Deac, I am trying to make
a difference in this department.
281
00:12:22,719 --> 00:12:24,329
In this city.
282
00:12:24,373 --> 00:12:26,549
I can't do this by myself.
283
00:12:26,592 --> 00:12:28,159
Well, I can't do that.
284
00:12:29,639 --> 00:12:31,684
I don't want these guys
protected either, but...
285
00:12:33,643 --> 00:12:35,688
I can't do that.
286
00:12:38,735 --> 00:12:40,606
Okay.
287
00:12:51,269 --> 00:12:53,794
You shoot this, Lindsey?
288
00:12:55,099 --> 00:12:56,405
-It's very good work.
-Right?
289
00:12:56,448 --> 00:12:58,059
Made a pretty penny selling it.
290
00:12:58,102 --> 00:13:00,452
Yeah, I really love
how close you got to the action.
291
00:13:00,496 --> 00:13:03,281
That angle on the door
as they roll out?
292
00:13:03,325 --> 00:13:04,500
Talk about perfect timing.
293
00:13:04,543 --> 00:13:05,762
Almost seems like
294
00:13:05,806 --> 00:13:07,895
you knew the robbery
was gonna happen
295
00:13:07,938 --> 00:13:09,026
before it happened.
296
00:13:09,070 --> 00:13:10,375
You get there early,
297
00:13:10,419 --> 00:13:11,855
you set up across the street.
298
00:13:11,899 --> 00:13:13,596
These bank robbers
buddies of yours?
299
00:13:13,639 --> 00:13:16,686
I got a text from an unknown
number with a time and a place.
300
00:13:16,729 --> 00:13:18,862
I'm a stringer, I chase tips.
301
00:13:18,906 --> 00:13:21,560
Look, we just want to stop these
guys before someone gets killed.
302
00:13:21,604 --> 00:13:24,041
Just let us see your phone and
help us figure out who they are.
303
00:13:24,085 --> 00:13:26,391
I don't have to do that.
304
00:13:26,435 --> 00:13:28,393
You can't compel me
to give up a source.
305
00:13:28,437 --> 00:13:30,743
You knew a bank robbery
was gonna happen,
306
00:13:30,787 --> 00:13:32,745
and instead of warning
someone, you filmed it.
307
00:13:32,789 --> 00:13:34,573
So if you want us
to come after you...
308
00:13:34,617 --> 00:13:38,360
How? I'm a news-gathering
organization.
309
00:13:38,403 --> 00:13:40,666
I have rights.
310
00:13:42,146 --> 00:13:43,669
You're not getting
ahold of my phone.
311
00:13:48,326 --> 00:13:50,502
Hicks says you found something
big on this robbery crew.
312
00:13:50,546 --> 00:13:51,721
What do you got?
313
00:13:51,764 --> 00:13:53,331
Zarba may not be
one of our robbers,
314
00:13:53,375 --> 00:13:54,767
but his gun was used by them.
315
00:13:54,811 --> 00:13:55,899
Took some digging,
but Deac and I
316
00:13:55,943 --> 00:13:57,379
looked at security footage
317
00:13:57,422 --> 00:13:59,250
within a mile radius
of Zarba's pharmacy robbery
318
00:13:59,294 --> 00:14:01,296
from a year ago, found this.
319
00:14:01,339 --> 00:14:04,734
That's Zarba dumping his gun,
320
00:14:04,777 --> 00:14:08,477
and that's about
30 minutes later.
321
00:14:08,520 --> 00:14:11,001
That's Jon Hardy,
a dishwasher at the restaurant.
322
00:14:11,045 --> 00:14:14,352
He was laid off a few weeks
later due to cutbacks.
323
00:14:14,396 --> 00:14:15,832
Well, he's got no record.
324
00:14:15,876 --> 00:14:18,966
Says he lives in The Jungle,
has his whole life.
325
00:14:19,009 --> 00:14:20,793
The Jungle?
326
00:14:20,837 --> 00:14:23,535
Hardy's neighborhood used to
be a gang hot spot in the '90s.
327
00:14:23,579 --> 00:14:25,146
Cops called it The Jungle
because it's small,
328
00:14:25,189 --> 00:14:27,017
dense and dangerous.
329
00:14:27,061 --> 00:14:29,715
But the locals call it
The Jungle because of the trees.
330
00:14:29,759 --> 00:14:31,108
Name dates back
to when it was built.
331
00:14:31,152 --> 00:14:32,196
Jungle may have had
its rough days
332
00:14:32,240 --> 00:14:33,632
in the past, but it's mostly
333
00:14:33,676 --> 00:14:35,721
working-class families now,
just trying to get by.
334
00:14:35,765 --> 00:14:37,288
In their videos, the
crew promised to deliver
335
00:14:37,332 --> 00:14:39,508
the bank's money back
to working people.
336
00:14:39,551 --> 00:14:41,858
Maybe The Jungle's
where they were talking about.
337
00:14:41,902 --> 00:14:43,773
Let's call the team.
338
00:14:54,479 --> 00:14:57,091
All right, listen,
Hardy lives on the second floor.
339
00:14:57,134 --> 00:14:59,789
Deac and Street, take point.
Chris, cover the stairs.
340
00:14:59,832 --> 00:15:01,530
Tan and I will take
the courtyard.
341
00:15:03,010 --> 00:15:04,750
-What's going on?
-Sir, I need you to go
back inside.
342
00:15:04,794 --> 00:15:07,014
Has this got something to do
with the bank robberies?
343
00:15:07,057 --> 00:15:08,972
-Why? You know something?
-Nah.
344
00:15:09,016 --> 00:15:10,800
Yo, you see that?
345
00:15:10,843 --> 00:15:12,758
Hey, what y'all doing
up in here?
346
00:15:15,544 --> 00:15:17,415
It's time to move, now.
347
00:15:17,459 --> 00:15:18,634
Do not engage
with the residents.
348
00:15:18,677 --> 00:15:19,765
We're here for Hardy.
349
00:15:20,810 --> 00:15:22,594
Hondo.
350
00:15:22,638 --> 00:15:24,988
Get out of here.
Hell no!
351
00:15:25,032 --> 00:15:28,078
You have no business here!
352
00:15:28,122 --> 00:15:29,993
Those are good boys
you're after!
353
00:15:30,037 --> 00:15:31,125
How do you know
who we're looking for?
354
00:15:31,168 --> 00:15:33,083
I'm not saying anything to you.
355
00:15:34,563 --> 00:15:35,912
LAPD!
356
00:15:35,956 --> 00:15:38,132
We got eyes on Hardy.
357
00:15:39,960 --> 00:15:42,136
Someone just let Hardy
into their unit!
358
00:15:42,179 --> 00:15:44,181
Complex knows we're here
for Hardy.
359
00:15:44,225 --> 00:15:45,835
Tan! Don't fire, don't fire.
360
00:15:47,968 --> 00:15:49,491
-Is that gunfire?
-That's a negative, Street.
361
00:15:49,534 --> 00:15:51,058
It's just the neighborhood,
they're covering for Hardy.
362
00:15:51,101 --> 00:15:52,581
Don't lose him.
363
00:15:54,670 --> 00:15:55,888
Hardy's not in here.
364
00:15:55,932 --> 00:15:57,281
There's a window
to the back alley.
365
00:15:57,325 --> 00:15:58,500
Pursue on foot.
366
00:15:58,543 --> 00:16:00,284
Tan and I will cut Hardy off
in the A.V.
367
00:16:00,328 --> 00:16:01,503
Move, Tan, move.
368
00:16:01,546 --> 00:16:03,505
Get out of the way!
369
00:16:03,548 --> 00:16:04,854
-Move!
Don't escalate.
370
00:16:04,897 --> 00:16:05,855
Hold up, hold up.
371
00:16:05,898 --> 00:16:07,509
Look around, man.
372
00:16:09,685 --> 00:16:11,121
There's nothing
but trees back here.
373
00:16:11,165 --> 00:16:12,862
I've got no sign of Hardy.
374
00:16:12,905 --> 00:16:13,689
He's gone, Hondo.
375
00:16:24,656 --> 00:16:27,181
Whole block helped Hardy
escape yesterday.
376
00:16:27,224 --> 00:16:30,227
As far as I'm concerned,
that makes them accomplices.
377
00:16:30,271 --> 00:16:33,056
What do you want to do, arrest
the entire neighborhood?
378
00:16:33,100 --> 00:16:34,753
Just because they knew
what was going on
379
00:16:34,797 --> 00:16:36,059
doesn't mean they were
involved in the robberies.
380
00:16:36,103 --> 00:16:37,452
If they're taking money
they know was stolen?
381
00:16:37,495 --> 00:16:38,801
Might as well be.
382
00:16:38,844 --> 00:16:40,672
This ain't a block full
of criminals, Tan.
383
00:16:40,716 --> 00:16:42,500
Things are a lot
more complicated than that.
384
00:16:46,852 --> 00:16:49,159
Ma'am, listen,
we're not here to hassle you.
385
00:16:51,205 --> 00:16:52,945
We just want to find Hardy
before he hurts anyone else
386
00:16:52,989 --> 00:16:54,469
worse than he already has.
387
00:16:54,512 --> 00:16:56,601
Those boys haven't hurt anyone
who hasn't had it coming.
388
00:16:56,645 --> 00:16:58,647
Besides, plenty of people here
getting hurt every day
389
00:16:58,690 --> 00:17:00,214
and no one's doing
nothing about it.
390
00:17:00,257 --> 00:17:01,824
Just tell us what's
going on, then.
391
00:17:01,867 --> 00:17:05,001
Rest of the world
might be getting back to normal,
392
00:17:05,045 --> 00:17:07,351
but here, we're still suffering.
393
00:17:07,395 --> 00:17:09,701
Most of us haven't
got our jobs back.
394
00:17:09,745 --> 00:17:11,921
Doesn't matter that we're
trying, system doesn't care.
395
00:17:11,964 --> 00:17:14,315
They're done waiting,
so they're throwing people
396
00:17:14,358 --> 00:17:15,664
out of their own homes,
397
00:17:15,707 --> 00:17:18,014
replacing them
with people who can pay.
398
00:17:18,058 --> 00:17:19,494
Hold up. No one can
evict you right now.
399
00:17:19,537 --> 00:17:21,148
The city put a hold in place
last year
400
00:17:21,191 --> 00:17:22,453
that's still in effect.
401
00:17:22,497 --> 00:17:24,020
Can't evict you, no,
402
00:17:24,064 --> 00:17:26,109
but they can figure out
other ways to get you out.
403
00:17:26,153 --> 00:17:28,720
They can turn off your power,
your plumbing.
404
00:17:28,764 --> 00:17:31,288
I was only two months behind
when they did it to me.
405
00:17:31,332 --> 00:17:32,724
When I called the police,
406
00:17:32,768 --> 00:17:35,118
they asked if I was sure
I had paid my utility bill.
407
00:17:36,859 --> 00:17:38,730
What's happening
with you isn't right.
408
00:17:38,774 --> 00:17:40,602
Call me if it happens again.
409
00:17:40,645 --> 00:17:42,952
But you're still here.
410
00:17:42,995 --> 00:17:45,041
So, guess
you sorted it out somehow?
411
00:17:45,085 --> 00:17:47,783
The neighborhood pitched in.
412
00:17:50,786 --> 00:17:53,832
The greedy bastard who owns
this place-- Bosowski--
413
00:17:53,876 --> 00:17:55,834
he's the one trying
to drive us out.
414
00:17:55,878 --> 00:17:57,445
He owns half the buildings
on this block.
415
00:17:57,488 --> 00:18:00,535
That's the real criminal
you should be going after.
416
00:18:00,578 --> 00:18:01,797
You're wasting your time
417
00:18:01,840 --> 00:18:04,756
chasing after good men
trying to help here.
418
00:18:08,238 --> 00:18:10,066
These guys are playing
Robin Hood.
419
00:18:10,110 --> 00:18:11,807
They're stealing money to pay
the rent for their neighbors.
420
00:18:11,850 --> 00:18:13,156
Which means I doubt
we'll find anyone else
421
00:18:13,200 --> 00:18:14,375
willing to talk here.
422
00:18:14,418 --> 00:18:15,724
Then we follow the money.
423
00:18:15,767 --> 00:18:18,727
If the stolen cash is in
the hands of the landlord,
424
00:18:18,770 --> 00:18:20,859
then he's who we need
to be talking to.
425
00:18:28,258 --> 00:18:29,259
Hey, what's up?
426
00:18:29,303 --> 00:18:30,565
Hey, buddy. I heard things
427
00:18:30,608 --> 00:18:32,219
didn't go so well
for you guys with Lindsey.
428
00:18:32,262 --> 00:18:33,568
She's been running her mouth
in our circles
429
00:18:33,611 --> 00:18:36,745
saying that she stood up
to SWAT.
430
00:18:36,788 --> 00:18:38,355
You really called
to tell me that?
431
00:18:38,399 --> 00:18:40,836
No, I called you
because I'm staring
432
00:18:40,879 --> 00:18:42,098
right at her.
433
00:18:42,142 --> 00:18:43,621
I didn't like hearing
your name in her mouth,
434
00:18:43,665 --> 00:18:46,058
so I went by a few of her
old haunts, trying to see if
435
00:18:46,102 --> 00:18:47,364
I could see anything suspicious.
436
00:18:47,408 --> 00:18:49,236
Found her instead.
437
00:18:49,279 --> 00:18:50,802
Terry, don't get involved
in this.
438
00:18:50,846 --> 00:18:52,282
-I'm serious, man.
-You sure?
439
00:18:52,326 --> 00:18:53,849
I mean, she kind of digs me.
440
00:18:53,892 --> 00:18:55,503
Now is the wrong time
to try playing cop.
441
00:18:55,546 --> 00:18:57,157
I get you got nothing
going on in your life,
442
00:18:57,200 --> 00:18:59,202
but please,
don't make mine harder.
443
00:18:59,246 --> 00:19:00,595
Go home now.
444
00:19:00,638 --> 00:19:01,987
All right, enough, tough guy.
445
00:19:02,031 --> 00:19:03,293
I was just trying
to help you out.
446
00:19:03,337 --> 00:19:04,990
Talk to you later, Dom.
447
00:19:06,905 --> 00:19:09,647
Terry's trying to tail
Lindsey on the down-low.
448
00:19:09,691 --> 00:19:11,519
Down-low? Your brother's
the size of a mountain.
449
00:19:11,562 --> 00:19:13,129
There is no down-low with him.
450
00:19:13,173 --> 00:19:14,870
If he wanted to keep chasing
folks, he shouldn't have quit
451
00:19:14,913 --> 00:19:16,524
being a stringer
for no good reason.
452
00:19:16,567 --> 00:19:18,352
Well, he said that he quit
'cause he couldn't
453
00:19:18,395 --> 00:19:19,875
keep up anymore.
You don't believe him?
454
00:19:19,918 --> 00:19:21,659
Terry's never stuck
with a job in his life.
455
00:19:21,703 --> 00:19:23,922
Okay? He does what he loves
till he doesn't anymore.
456
00:19:23,966 --> 00:19:26,055
Then it's on to the next thing,
like a new toy.
457
00:19:26,098 --> 00:19:28,144
-Lot of people are like that.
-Yeah, well,
458
00:19:28,188 --> 00:19:30,015
I don't have to look out
for a lot of other people.
459
00:19:30,059 --> 00:19:31,234
Who do you think's
gonna cover the rent
460
00:19:31,278 --> 00:19:32,627
when he's in between paychecks?
461
00:19:32,670 --> 00:19:34,194
I'm the one who keeps him
from hitting rock bottom.
462
00:19:34,237 --> 00:19:35,369
I wouldn't even mind
doing it so much
463
00:19:35,412 --> 00:19:36,979
if he took things
more seriously.
464
00:19:37,022 --> 00:19:40,243
But right now he's jobless,
he's living off leftovers,
465
00:19:40,287 --> 00:19:42,245
and instead of figuring out
his next steps,
466
00:19:42,289 --> 00:19:44,073
he's running around playing P.I.
467
00:19:44,116 --> 00:19:45,640
Feels like he knows
468
00:19:45,683 --> 00:19:48,860
I'm always gonna be there
to catch him when he falls,
469
00:19:48,904 --> 00:19:51,472
so he just keeps jumping.
470
00:19:57,739 --> 00:19:58,914
Talk to them up there.
471
00:19:58,957 --> 00:20:00,263
-All right?
-Okay, boss.
472
00:20:00,307 --> 00:20:01,786
Ah, it's gonna be a beauty.
473
00:20:01,830 --> 00:20:03,397
Either of you
looking for a place?
474
00:20:03,440 --> 00:20:05,399
Mr. Bosowski, we believe
tenants in your buildings
475
00:20:05,442 --> 00:20:07,575
have been robbing banks
and using the stolen money
476
00:20:07,618 --> 00:20:09,403
to pay off rents in
their neighborhood.
477
00:20:09,446 --> 00:20:10,752
Recognize this guy?
Lives in The Jungle.
478
00:20:10,795 --> 00:20:12,362
He's working with two others
we need to find.
479
00:20:12,406 --> 00:20:14,669
Look, a lot of people,
especially in that area,
480
00:20:14,712 --> 00:20:15,800
do all kinds of things
to make rent.
481
00:20:15,844 --> 00:20:17,324
It's not my responsibility.
482
00:20:17,367 --> 00:20:18,629
Well, if we can get
a look at your books...
483
00:20:18,673 --> 00:20:20,283
Not without a warrant. Sorry.
484
00:20:20,327 --> 00:20:21,806
I got a business to protect.
485
00:20:21,850 --> 00:20:23,982
Even if you have to shut off
some lady's power, right?
486
00:20:24,026 --> 00:20:25,419
Long as you get your
money in the end?
487
00:20:25,462 --> 00:20:27,159
You know,
when the city froze evictions,
488
00:20:27,203 --> 00:20:28,813
they gave a green light
for every cheat in the city
489
00:20:28,857 --> 00:20:29,945
to just stop paying rent.
490
00:20:29,988 --> 00:20:31,033
A lot of those people
can't control
491
00:20:31,076 --> 00:20:32,469
what's happening
with their jobs.
492
00:20:32,513 --> 00:20:33,818
I have bills to pay, too.
493
00:20:33,862 --> 00:20:35,298
I can't just stop paying them.
494
00:20:36,821 --> 00:20:39,824
Y-You know what?
I do recognize that guy.
495
00:20:39,868 --> 00:20:43,001
Yeah, he came to an eviction
protest last spring.
496
00:20:43,045 --> 00:20:44,264
Two of his buddies
497
00:20:44,307 --> 00:20:46,135
chained themselves
to my building.
498
00:20:46,178 --> 00:20:49,051
One of them spit on me, so
I took a picture for my lawyers.
499
00:20:50,357 --> 00:20:52,315
See what I'm dealing with?
500
00:20:52,359 --> 00:20:53,664
I saw that guy in
The Jungle yesterday.
501
00:20:53,708 --> 00:20:56,014
Maybe just found our crew.
502
00:20:58,626 --> 00:21:00,715
We got to get out
of town, lay low.
503
00:21:00,758 --> 00:21:02,151
What?
504
00:21:02,194 --> 00:21:04,327
Yo, you saw how the block
rallied around us yesterday.
505
00:21:04,371 --> 00:21:07,374
We're heroes. I want
to hit another bank today.
506
00:21:07,417 --> 00:21:08,766
We still got a little cash left
507
00:21:08,810 --> 00:21:10,855
from the last time
we can give out.
508
00:21:10,899 --> 00:21:12,727
I had three more families
reach out to me this morning.
509
00:21:12,770 --> 00:21:15,730
We swore we would try
to save everyone.
510
00:21:15,773 --> 00:21:16,992
We've done a lot of good.
511
00:21:17,035 --> 00:21:19,560
We've helped a lot of people.
512
00:21:20,865 --> 00:21:22,127
But I'm quitting now,
513
00:21:22,171 --> 00:21:23,520
while we're still ahead.
514
00:21:23,564 --> 00:21:25,348
You can't quit.
515
00:21:25,392 --> 00:21:28,133
-The job takes three.
-Right.
516
00:21:28,177 --> 00:21:30,179
One on the cash,
one on the customers,
517
00:21:30,222 --> 00:21:32,877
while, uh, you beat the hell
out of the manager for fun?
518
00:21:32,921 --> 00:21:36,272
The message is as important
as the cause.
519
00:21:37,621 --> 00:21:38,970
Yeah.
520
00:21:39,014 --> 00:21:42,365
Or maybe you just like
hurting people.
521
00:21:42,409 --> 00:21:44,759
Or being on TV.
522
00:21:44,802 --> 00:21:48,110
Fine. Go.
523
00:21:51,461 --> 00:21:52,723
We can do it ourselves.
524
00:21:53,811 --> 00:21:56,553
I'll have to watch
the customers, so...
525
00:21:56,597 --> 00:21:59,904
maybe I'll shoot the bank
manager in the head.
526
00:21:59,948 --> 00:22:01,993
Could shoot the tellers, too.
527
00:22:02,037 --> 00:22:04,605
Much more efficient. Hmm?
528
00:22:07,521 --> 00:22:09,174
Or...
529
00:22:10,915 --> 00:22:13,918
...we do it the way
we always do.
530
00:22:13,962 --> 00:22:16,312
The three of us.
531
00:22:25,147 --> 00:22:27,105
Hey, Sarge, wait up.
532
00:22:27,149 --> 00:22:28,846
Hey, Lee, how's it going?
533
00:22:28,890 --> 00:22:30,761
I'm bored out of my mind.
Hicks got me on Armory duty
534
00:22:30,805 --> 00:22:32,241
all week, and it's not
even my turn.
535
00:22:32,284 --> 00:22:33,677
Rocker says it's
"haze the new guy,"
536
00:22:33,721 --> 00:22:35,940
but Malhotra's new, too,
and he's in the field, so...
537
00:22:35,984 --> 00:22:38,029
maybe it's just
"haze the white guy."
538
00:22:38,073 --> 00:22:40,118
We all have to pay our dues.
539
00:22:40,162 --> 00:22:42,773
Yeah, right.
Well, almost all of us.
540
00:22:42,817 --> 00:22:44,340
Hey, the guys and I are
gonna grab a drink
541
00:22:44,384 --> 00:22:46,864
-after the shift tomorrow.
-Ah, you know what, uh, I can't.
542
00:22:46,908 --> 00:22:48,039
Oh, come on, man,
they want to hear
543
00:22:48,083 --> 00:22:49,258
some real SWAT war stories.
544
00:22:49,301 --> 00:22:50,520
I've been on a leash
ever since I joined.
545
00:22:50,564 --> 00:22:52,392
We're still working
that robbery crew, so, uh...
546
00:22:52,435 --> 00:22:54,089
Oh.
But you know what,
I'll-I'll think about it.
547
00:22:54,132 --> 00:22:55,960
Sounds good. Hey.
548
00:22:56,004 --> 00:22:58,180
Don't get too caught up
doing Harrelson's job for him.
549
00:23:04,012 --> 00:23:06,449
Using this photo from
an eviction protest a year ago,
550
00:23:06,493 --> 00:23:08,146
we were able to I.D.
the rest of our crew.
551
00:23:08,190 --> 00:23:09,626
We already knew Hardy.
552
00:23:09,670 --> 00:23:12,150
No record, using a gun
he found by chance.
553
00:23:12,194 --> 00:23:14,979
Not the hardened criminal type.
What about these two?
554
00:23:15,023 --> 00:23:16,546
Aaron Landolt falls
in the same boat.
555
00:23:16,590 --> 00:23:18,548
Still lives in the same
apartment where he grew up.
556
00:23:18,592 --> 00:23:20,724
Bounces between minimum-wage
work to pitch with the rent.
557
00:23:20,768 --> 00:23:22,726
-No record either.
-Ben Bartis, on the other hand,
558
00:23:22,770 --> 00:23:23,988
he's been brought in
for trespassing,
559
00:23:24,032 --> 00:23:25,686
vandalism and disturbing the peace.
560
00:23:25,729 --> 00:23:27,427
All charges you might get
for expressing
561
00:23:27,470 --> 00:23:29,603
your First Amendment right
a little too loudly.
562
00:23:29,646 --> 00:23:31,518
Hardy and Landolt
lost their jobs last year.
563
00:23:31,561 --> 00:23:32,910
We think Bartis
recruited them
564
00:23:32,954 --> 00:23:34,738
when their landlords began
looking for creative ways
565
00:23:34,782 --> 00:23:36,000
to evict people.
566
00:23:36,044 --> 00:23:37,741
Screwed-up solution
to a screwed-up problem.
567
00:23:37,785 --> 00:23:39,090
If it were just about the money,
568
00:23:39,134 --> 00:23:41,571
Bartis wouldn't need
to assault a bank employee
569
00:23:41,615 --> 00:23:43,747
or tip off a camera crew;
it's about something more.
570
00:23:43,791 --> 00:23:45,096
When I saw him at the bank,
571
00:23:45,140 --> 00:23:47,316
I didn't see empathy
in his eyes, only anger.
572
00:23:47,359 --> 00:23:49,100
Hey, I just got a call
from Terry.
573
00:23:49,144 --> 00:23:51,407
He's been following
that stringer Lindsey all day.
574
00:23:51,451 --> 00:23:53,540
Lindsey just set up her camera
outside a bank in Brentwood.
575
00:23:57,500 --> 00:23:59,502
This institution is a sickness!
576
00:23:59,546 --> 00:24:01,069
You should be ashamed
of yourself.
577
00:24:01,112 --> 00:24:02,287
We're good!
578
00:24:02,331 --> 00:24:03,593
Time's up. We gotta go.
579
00:24:05,595 --> 00:24:07,771
You're the sick one!
580
00:24:09,860 --> 00:24:11,296
Let's go!
581
00:24:21,959 --> 00:24:23,961
-LAPD. Drop your weapon!
-Weapons on the ground!
582
00:24:27,965 --> 00:24:29,489
Come on, let's go.
Let's go!
583
00:24:35,277 --> 00:24:37,148
What the hell was that?
584
00:24:37,192 --> 00:24:38,454
We had to get away.
585
00:24:38,498 --> 00:24:40,064
We shot at cops.
586
00:24:42,066 --> 00:24:43,807
I'm done.
587
00:24:43,851 --> 00:24:45,896
He's right, man. This is crazy.
588
00:24:52,990 --> 00:24:54,383
They went that way.
589
00:24:54,426 --> 00:24:56,037
Street and I
will stay with them,
590
00:24:56,080 --> 00:24:57,212
check the bank.
591
00:24:57,255 --> 00:24:58,866
30-David. We got
an officer down.
592
00:24:58,909 --> 00:25:00,563
-Need an R/
-A to our location.
593
00:25:00,607 --> 00:25:01,782
Street, grab
the med kit.
594
00:25:01,825 --> 00:25:03,000
Chris, Tan, with me.
595
00:25:04,306 --> 00:25:07,135
Hey, she knew about the robbery.
Grab her up.
596
00:25:07,178 --> 00:25:08,528
Hey, turn that off now.
597
00:25:14,577 --> 00:25:16,144
Chris, go.
598
00:25:18,059 --> 00:25:19,103
-Clear!
599
00:25:20,714 --> 00:25:22,193
Hardy and Landolt.
600
00:25:22,237 --> 00:25:24,674
Had to have been Bartis
who did this.
601
00:25:24,718 --> 00:25:26,328
Kill his own partners? Why?
602
00:25:26,371 --> 00:25:27,721
Maybe his mission
wasn't their mission.
603
00:25:27,764 --> 00:25:29,026
If Bartis didn't hesitate
604
00:25:29,070 --> 00:25:30,201
to shoot his own crew
in the back...
605
00:25:30,245 --> 00:25:31,681
What else is he willing to do?
606
00:25:38,079 --> 00:25:40,342
Just heard from Rocker.
50-Squad searched
607
00:25:40,385 --> 00:25:42,344
Bartis's apartment,
no sign of him.
608
00:25:42,387 --> 00:25:44,433
I doubt he's coming back.
Said the place was bare,
609
00:25:44,476 --> 00:25:46,000
no personal effects.
610
00:25:46,043 --> 00:25:48,263
He really never spent a cent
of that stolen cash on himself.
611
00:25:48,306 --> 00:25:50,004
RHD's scouring
all known associates.
612
00:25:50,047 --> 00:25:52,267
-He can't hide forever.
-No, Bartis won't be hiding.
613
00:25:52,310 --> 00:25:53,616
The situation in The Jungle
hasn't changed,
614
00:25:53,660 --> 00:25:54,922
and that's what it's always
been about.
615
00:25:54,965 --> 00:25:56,314
So many people have wronged
that neighborhood
616
00:25:56,358 --> 00:25:58,447
over the years, he could be
going after anyone.
617
00:25:58,490 --> 00:25:59,666
All the more reason
to find him before
618
00:25:59,709 --> 00:26:02,320
someone else gets hurt.
619
00:26:02,364 --> 00:26:03,670
I don't know what gets me more,
620
00:26:03,713 --> 00:26:05,497
that The Jungle turned to Bartis
instead of us,
621
00:26:05,541 --> 00:26:07,630
or that we let 'em down
in the first place.
622
00:26:07,674 --> 00:26:11,591
Building trust in the police is
never easy, especially in L.A.
623
00:26:13,288 --> 00:26:14,332
We're gonna find him, Tan.
624
00:26:18,380 --> 00:26:20,425
Durham said he's
on Armory duty.
625
00:26:21,644 --> 00:26:23,951
-You told Hicks, didn't you?
-I didn't use your name.
626
00:26:32,742 --> 00:26:34,483
-Hey.
Hey.
627
00:26:36,311 --> 00:26:38,052
You all right?
628
00:26:42,056 --> 00:26:43,927
No.
629
00:26:45,407 --> 00:26:47,801
No. It's uh...
630
00:26:47,844 --> 00:26:49,237
It's been a hell of a few days.
631
00:26:49,280 --> 00:26:51,413
Talk to me.
632
00:26:51,456 --> 00:26:53,502
You always find time
for my drama,
633
00:26:53,545 --> 00:26:55,025
now it's my turn to listen.
634
00:26:55,069 --> 00:26:58,159
Have a seat.
635
00:26:58,202 --> 00:26:59,377
Sit.
636
00:26:59,421 --> 00:27:02,554
Yes, ma'am.
637
00:27:09,779 --> 00:27:13,348
One of my guys...
638
00:27:13,391 --> 00:27:16,177
he uncovered a group of racist
cops in the department.
639
00:27:16,220 --> 00:27:18,135
Yeah.
640
00:27:18,179 --> 00:27:21,573
So we had some words on how
we were gonna deal with them.
641
00:27:24,838 --> 00:27:27,362
Long story short,
642
00:27:27,405 --> 00:27:29,712
he'd rather sit this fight out.
643
00:27:29,756 --> 00:27:33,716
Damn. I mean, you'd think
after years of
644
00:27:33,760 --> 00:27:37,024
working side by side with you,
he'd see the struggle.
645
00:27:37,067 --> 00:27:40,375
The cop in me gets it.
646
00:27:40,418 --> 00:27:42,464
He'd be putting his entire
career on the line,
647
00:27:42,507 --> 00:27:44,596
and if other cops found out...
648
00:27:46,381 --> 00:27:47,556
...there's no coming back
from that.
649
00:27:47,599 --> 00:27:51,081
And that's just how
the PD is, everywhere.
650
00:27:52,256 --> 00:27:54,781
But there's another part of me
that's just so angry at myself
651
00:27:54,824 --> 00:27:57,609
for not pushing him harder.
652
00:27:57,653 --> 00:28:00,090
He's a good man.
653
00:28:00,134 --> 00:28:03,746
I mean, hell, he's,
he's a great man.
654
00:28:05,487 --> 00:28:08,751
I just don't understand
the compromise here.
655
00:28:08,795 --> 00:28:11,449
He's had his own experience,
656
00:28:11,493 --> 00:28:13,451
probably very different
from yours.
657
00:28:13,495 --> 00:28:17,412
I've been working
so hard to do good.
658
00:28:17,455 --> 00:28:18,805
I tell the people
in this community
659
00:28:18,848 --> 00:28:22,025
the police can do better,
that we will do better.
660
00:28:23,113 --> 00:28:27,248
But if I can't get
a good cop like him on board,
661
00:28:27,291 --> 00:28:28,553
how is it ever gonna work?
662
00:28:28,597 --> 00:28:31,252
It's gonna work because
663
00:28:31,295 --> 00:28:33,907
it's the right thing to do,
period.
664
00:28:33,950 --> 00:28:36,300
It's not your job
to convince your friend
665
00:28:36,344 --> 00:28:37,780
of what your struggle is.
666
00:28:37,824 --> 00:28:40,000
You're not his tutor on racism.
667
00:28:45,614 --> 00:28:48,008
You know, your guy really is
a lucky man to have you
668
00:28:48,051 --> 00:28:49,444
to keep him in check.
669
00:28:53,274 --> 00:28:56,407
Um...
670
00:28:56,451 --> 00:28:58,148
I need to tell you something.
671
00:29:01,325 --> 00:29:02,979
We ended things.
672
00:29:03,023 --> 00:29:07,070
Last month, actually.
673
00:29:07,114 --> 00:29:09,072
Why didn't you say anything?
674
00:29:09,116 --> 00:29:13,773
These talks, I didn't
want them to stop.
675
00:29:13,816 --> 00:29:15,731
I didn't want to mess that up.
676
00:29:17,951 --> 00:29:20,605
Nichelle...
677
00:29:20,649 --> 00:29:24,653
this has been one of the
roughest years of my life.
678
00:29:24,696 --> 00:29:28,613
You've been there for me.
679
00:29:28,657 --> 00:29:30,180
The last thing
that I would want to do
680
00:29:30,224 --> 00:29:31,312
is mess that up.
681
00:29:36,056 --> 00:29:39,233
You need to take the burden
off yourself, Hondo.
682
00:29:39,276 --> 00:29:42,018
Your friend, if he is
truly a good man,
683
00:29:42,062 --> 00:29:44,804
he'll find his way.
684
00:29:49,765 --> 00:29:51,723
So you got a call
685
00:29:51,767 --> 00:29:52,768
from that woman you gave
your car to yesterday?
686
00:29:52,812 --> 00:29:54,074
She was crying.
687
00:29:54,117 --> 00:29:55,510
I could barely
understand her.
688
00:29:55,553 --> 00:29:57,251
I think her landlord is
pulling another fast one.
689
00:29:58,948 --> 00:30:01,864
They're throwing us out.
All of us.
690
00:30:04,998 --> 00:30:06,260
Bosowski is saying
because she paid rent
691
00:30:06,303 --> 00:30:08,349
with stolen bank money,
it's a felony.
692
00:30:08,392 --> 00:30:10,351
The city's eviction ban
doesn't protect her anymore.
693
00:30:10,394 --> 00:30:11,918
He can legally evict anyone
694
00:30:11,961 --> 00:30:13,310
who took cash
from the robberies.
695
00:30:13,354 --> 00:30:15,051
I mean, that's practically
the, the entire block.
696
00:30:15,095 --> 00:30:16,879
You think Bartis
knows about this?
697
00:30:16,923 --> 00:30:18,750
Loretta, have you seen
Ben Bartis since yesterday?
698
00:30:18,794 --> 00:30:22,232
Is it true what they're saying
he did to Jon and Aaron?
699
00:30:22,276 --> 00:30:23,581
Yeah, it is.
700
00:30:23,625 --> 00:30:27,368
He was here this morning.
701
00:30:27,411 --> 00:30:31,459
When he saw the notices,
he started yelling.
702
00:30:31,502 --> 00:30:33,853
Said this had all been
for nothing.
703
00:30:40,120 --> 00:30:42,078
Bartis was trying
to help these people,
704
00:30:42,122 --> 00:30:43,471
now they're all gonna be
evicted because of him.
705
00:30:43,514 --> 00:30:44,951
There's nothing
holding him back.
706
00:30:44,994 --> 00:30:46,169
He's going after Bosowski.
707
00:31:12,630 --> 00:31:14,545
Gunfire from the trailer.
708
00:31:20,769 --> 00:31:23,163
-Bartis is on the move!
-Deac and Street,
check the trailer.
709
00:31:23,206 --> 00:31:25,730
Tan, Chris, you're with me.
We got Bartis.
710
00:31:33,782 --> 00:31:35,262
Go!
711
00:31:39,614 --> 00:31:42,138
Chris, count the floors. Move.
712
00:31:44,097 --> 00:31:45,402
Tan.
713
00:31:51,191 --> 00:31:52,670
Fourth floor.
714
00:31:58,024 --> 00:31:59,286
Tan, go right, I got left.
715
00:32:01,549 --> 00:32:03,638
Bartis, stop!
716
00:32:13,953 --> 00:32:15,476
No way out of this, Bartis!
717
00:32:15,519 --> 00:32:16,781
Your neighborhood's
still gonna grieve
718
00:32:16,825 --> 00:32:18,392
if you end up in a body bag!
719
00:32:20,089 --> 00:32:21,612
I already fixed everything!
720
00:32:43,417 --> 00:32:44,984
What do you mean
you fixed everything?
721
00:32:45,027 --> 00:32:47,377
30-David.
We found Bosowski inside.
722
00:32:47,421 --> 00:32:48,857
Shot in the chest.
723
00:32:48,900 --> 00:32:50,598
We couldn't save him.
724
00:32:50,641 --> 00:32:54,036
Congratulations.
You solved absolutely nothing.
725
00:33:03,002 --> 00:33:04,873
And I'm just thinking,
"Why are you crying?
726
00:33:04,916 --> 00:33:06,396
Your son was a thug."
727
00:33:06,440 --> 00:33:07,571
It was a double homicide.
728
00:33:07,615 --> 00:33:09,051
Those animals killed each other.
729
00:33:09,095 --> 00:33:11,532
There's no civility down there.
730
00:33:11,575 --> 00:33:13,490
Look, I can't wait
for my first raid.
731
00:33:13,534 --> 00:33:16,276
Every bullet is justified,
if you ask me.
732
00:33:18,495 --> 00:33:21,455
Hey. How was
your night?
733
00:33:21,498 --> 00:33:24,501
Was that Lee's voice?
734
00:33:24,545 --> 00:33:27,069
Yeah, um, him
and some of his friends.
735
00:33:29,028 --> 00:33:31,639
That's who I was
with tonight.
736
00:33:31,682 --> 00:33:33,510
Why were you recording them?
737
00:33:35,469 --> 00:33:37,123
It's complicated.
738
00:33:41,605 --> 00:33:43,477
Actually, no. It's not.
739
00:33:55,054 --> 00:33:57,404
They're racists, Annie.
740
00:33:57,447 --> 00:34:01,625
They crack jokes, brag
about breaking the rules,
741
00:34:01,669 --> 00:34:04,498
targeting minorities.
742
00:34:04,541 --> 00:34:07,501
And, uh, tonight, they, uh...
743
00:34:07,544 --> 00:34:09,459
they invited me to join.
744
00:34:11,853 --> 00:34:14,160
What does this kid see in me?
745
00:34:14,203 --> 00:34:16,379
I mean, he could've--
he could've asked anybody.
746
00:34:16,423 --> 00:34:19,034
Lee sees you
as a SWAT leader,
747
00:34:19,078 --> 00:34:22,211
a mentor, fellow father.
748
00:34:22,255 --> 00:34:24,474
No, it's not just that.
749
00:34:24,518 --> 00:34:28,696
W-We've talked a lot
about the job...
750
00:34:28,739 --> 00:34:32,178
a-and I've agreed with some
of the things he said.
751
00:34:32,221 --> 00:34:35,790
I still do. Uh, cops are
being unfairly vilified.
752
00:34:35,833 --> 00:34:39,750
The only way that you should
get ahead is your merit.
753
00:34:39,794 --> 00:34:42,449
No, David, thinking that
doesn't make you a racist.
754
00:34:42,492 --> 00:34:44,886
No.
755
00:34:44,929 --> 00:34:47,410
But the stuff on here?
756
00:34:47,454 --> 00:34:51,414
I mean, if-if you
really believe those things,
757
00:34:51,458 --> 00:34:54,287
there's no way that you can
police in an unbiased way.
758
00:34:55,940 --> 00:35:00,249
Hondo tried to tell me, and I...
759
00:35:00,293 --> 00:35:01,511
I didn't want to believe him.
760
00:35:01,555 --> 00:35:03,252
Yeah, but in the end,
you did.
761
00:35:03,296 --> 00:35:04,906
This time.
762
00:35:04,949 --> 00:35:08,692
But, what, 20 years,
763
00:35:08,736 --> 00:35:11,391
I've-I've laughed off
remarks like that?
764
00:35:17,614 --> 00:35:22,184
Is that who Lee saw?
765
00:35:22,228 --> 00:35:23,794
What kind of person
does that make me?
766
00:35:23,838 --> 00:35:27,189
You are not like those men.
767
00:35:29,278 --> 00:35:31,541
Okay, let's say
that that's true.
768
00:35:38,069 --> 00:35:40,463
Maybe that's not enough anymore.
769
00:35:49,472 --> 00:35:52,388
Every bullet is justified,
if you ask me. Bam, bam.
770
00:35:52,432 --> 00:35:54,825
Just freed up a prison cot
for someone
771
00:35:54,869 --> 00:35:57,654
who can actually be
rehabilitated.
772
00:35:57,698 --> 00:35:59,308
I don't need
to hear anymore.
773
00:36:02,833 --> 00:36:04,792
You're gonna need
to watch your back.
774
00:36:04,835 --> 00:36:06,881
And not just
for Durham.
775
00:36:06,924 --> 00:36:08,709
All three of the officers
you named
776
00:36:08,752 --> 00:36:11,102
will be removed
from the field immediately.
777
00:36:12,147 --> 00:36:14,236
Are you sure
you want to do this?
778
00:36:15,281 --> 00:36:16,456
No.
779
00:36:18,414 --> 00:36:20,286
But I can't do nothing.
780
00:36:22,288 --> 00:36:23,550
In that case,
781
00:36:23,593 --> 00:36:25,029
I'll need
to show Durham the desk
782
00:36:25,073 --> 00:36:27,989
he'll be watching collect dust
until this is settled.
783
00:36:28,032 --> 00:36:29,425
Thank you, Sergeant.
784
00:36:38,956 --> 00:36:40,741
You two again?
785
00:36:40,784 --> 00:36:42,917
Look, I already
told you everything I saw.
786
00:36:42,960 --> 00:36:45,441
Bartis has been arrested.
It's all over.
787
00:36:47,138 --> 00:36:49,402
Wish I could say that changes
anything around here.
788
00:36:49,445 --> 00:36:51,360
Yeah, we know. That's why
we wanted to ask for a favor.
789
00:36:51,404 --> 00:36:53,884
Do you mind introducing us
to some of your neighbors?
790
00:36:55,582 --> 00:36:57,584
We know the police
have let this neighborhood down
791
00:36:57,627 --> 00:37:00,587
in the past. We want
to change that.
792
00:37:00,630 --> 00:37:01,936
I've done a lot of work
with a nonprofit law firm
793
00:37:01,979 --> 00:37:04,460
that helps communities
in situations like yours.
794
00:37:04,504 --> 00:37:06,680
They might be able to help.
We would love
795
00:37:06,723 --> 00:37:08,421
to talk to as many people
as we can about it.
796
00:37:08,464 --> 00:37:11,511
We wish we could do more,
but we wanted to do something.
797
00:37:13,643 --> 00:37:15,950
Not sure
you'll find many folks
798
00:37:15,993 --> 00:37:17,778
interested in talking
to police today.
799
00:37:19,997 --> 00:37:22,609
But I'll ask. Wait right here.
800
00:37:25,916 --> 00:37:28,223
Thank you, Officers.
801
00:37:30,007 --> 00:37:32,053
-Hey.
Mm.
802
00:37:34,360 --> 00:37:36,623
You hear to chew me out
for tailing Lindsey?
803
00:37:36,666 --> 00:37:39,800
Nah. We wouldn't have... got
that robbery crew without you.
804
00:37:39,843 --> 00:37:41,758
Was still incredibly stupid,
805
00:37:41,802 --> 00:37:43,630
but when has that
ever stopped you before?
806
00:37:43,673 --> 00:37:45,327
I'm actually pretty impressed.
807
00:37:45,371 --> 00:37:46,894
I mean, look,
you knew where to look,
808
00:37:46,937 --> 00:37:48,722
followed your subject,
kept a low profile.
809
00:37:48,765 --> 00:37:51,290
I see why you were
such a great stringer, man.
810
00:37:51,333 --> 00:37:54,118
Look, dude, I told you,
I'll find a new thing.
811
00:37:54,162 --> 00:37:56,469
I'll figure out a way to pay
the bills. Not a big deal.
812
00:37:56,512 --> 00:37:58,253
You're too old
to keep doing this.
813
00:37:58,297 --> 00:37:59,515
If I have a rough
couple of weeks
814
00:37:59,559 --> 00:38:00,864
or months,
I'll handle it.
815
00:38:00,908 --> 00:38:02,605
You just got to let me be, bro.
816
00:38:02,649 --> 00:38:04,607
Just looking out for you. I'm...
817
00:38:04,651 --> 00:38:06,696
It's what a big brother's
supposed to do.
818
00:38:08,568 --> 00:38:11,179
You don't even know what you've
done for me already, do you?
819
00:38:12,398 --> 00:38:14,008
We're Lucas.
820
00:38:14,051 --> 00:38:16,532
Grandpa was O.G. SWAT.
821
00:38:16,576 --> 00:38:19,361
Dad was gonna make sure that one
of us kept that legacy alive.
822
00:38:19,405 --> 00:38:22,973
You were the go-to kid.
The oldest. I...
823
00:38:23,017 --> 00:38:25,628
You took that burden, shouldered
it, went down that track.
824
00:38:25,672 --> 00:38:27,935
I...
825
00:38:27,978 --> 00:38:31,504
I got to grow up just being me.
826
00:38:33,157 --> 00:38:34,985
Thank you for that.
827
00:38:44,821 --> 00:38:47,737
Hey, you remember where Dad
took me on my 21st birthday?
828
00:38:47,781 --> 00:38:52,002
Not a bar for my first beer,
829
00:38:52,046 --> 00:38:55,832
he took me to enroll
in the police academy.
830
00:38:55,876 --> 00:38:57,791
Yeah. But, I mean, it
paid off, though, right?
831
00:38:57,834 --> 00:39:00,489
Look at you. You're rolling
with the best of the best.
832
00:39:00,533 --> 00:39:03,362
Look, I love it. I really do.
833
00:39:03,405 --> 00:39:05,189
But sometimes it feels
834
00:39:05,233 --> 00:39:09,542
like I was cast in this role
without having a choice.
835
00:39:09,585 --> 00:39:12,022
Never thought about
what else I could be.
836
00:39:12,066 --> 00:39:13,676
Maybe that's why
I get on your case
837
00:39:13,720 --> 00:39:15,722
every time
you switch careers,
838
00:39:15,765 --> 00:39:17,550
'cause I'm a little jealous.
839
00:39:19,552 --> 00:39:21,205
I never had that choice.
840
00:39:21,249 --> 00:39:25,079
You're a grown-ass man.
You can do whatever you want.
841
00:39:26,515 --> 00:39:27,734
You got nothing
to prove to anybody.
842
00:39:28,865 --> 00:39:30,650
You got a nest egg, right?
843
00:39:30,693 --> 00:39:34,349
You and I, take the food truck,
tour the country.
844
00:39:34,393 --> 00:39:37,439
Filling bellies, solving crime.
845
00:39:40,311 --> 00:39:42,705
I can't...
846
00:39:42,749 --> 00:39:45,186
talk to the team
about stuff like this.
847
00:39:46,666 --> 00:39:48,798
Thanks.
848
00:39:48,842 --> 00:39:50,539
That's what brothers are for.
849
00:39:53,324 --> 00:39:54,587
Hey, Kay!
850
00:39:54,630 --> 00:39:56,589
Where do you think
you're going, huh?
851
00:39:56,632 --> 00:39:58,765
An I.A. investigation? Really?
852
00:39:58,808 --> 00:40:00,331
For some words? Is this
some kind of a joke?
853
00:40:00,375 --> 00:40:02,899
Hey. Watch yourself. You're
talking to a commanding officer.
854
00:40:02,943 --> 00:40:04,118
Oh, are you scared
everyone's gonna hear
855
00:40:04,161 --> 00:40:05,772
how you spied on
another officer?
856
00:40:05,815 --> 00:40:08,252
Recorded me
without my consent?
857
00:40:08,296 --> 00:40:10,167
Lee, why don't we go outside?
858
00:40:10,211 --> 00:40:12,082
I've got no respect left
for your rank.
859
00:40:12,126 --> 00:40:15,303
You know they pulled me off the
streets and put me on a desk?
860
00:40:15,346 --> 00:40:17,523
What am I supposed
to tell my wife, huh?
861
00:40:17,566 --> 00:40:19,568
Why don't you tell her
some of the things you told me?
862
00:40:19,612 --> 00:40:21,048
I'm not ashamed
of anything on that tape.
863
00:40:21,091 --> 00:40:22,397
Those are just truths
of the job.
864
00:40:22,441 --> 00:40:24,573
It's the way it is.
We all think those things.
865
00:40:24,617 --> 00:40:27,271
And if you tell me that
you don't, then you're a liar.
866
00:40:27,315 --> 00:40:31,275
If you truly believe that
that's what this job is about,
867
00:40:31,319 --> 00:40:33,930
you never deserved it
in the first place.
868
00:40:33,974 --> 00:40:36,455
My PBA reps are gonna tear
this case to shreds,
869
00:40:36,498 --> 00:40:37,586
and you're gonna be
the only person
870
00:40:37,630 --> 00:40:39,066
hurt by it.
871
00:40:39,109 --> 00:40:41,460
Yeah, they'll put me
back on the street.
872
00:40:41,503 --> 00:40:43,940
But you have to watch your
back the rest of your career.
873
00:40:43,984 --> 00:40:45,159
Whatever's left of it.
874
00:40:45,202 --> 00:40:46,290
At least I won't have to worry
875
00:40:46,334 --> 00:40:47,770
about seeing my face on TV
876
00:40:47,814 --> 00:40:49,946
because something I did
caused this city or this country
877
00:40:49,990 --> 00:40:51,644
to tear itself apart again.
878
00:40:58,651 --> 00:41:00,653
Good luck with everything.
879
00:41:20,455 --> 00:41:21,587
Sorry it took me a while
to figure out
880
00:41:21,630 --> 00:41:23,327
the right thing to do.
881
00:41:24,328 --> 00:41:25,852
It's all right.
882
00:41:27,462 --> 00:41:29,029
We good?
883
00:41:29,072 --> 00:41:30,291
We're good.
