00:00:07,964 --> 00:00:11,054
Dear fellow Angelenos.
This week, Abigail Thomas

2
00:00:11,098 --> 00:00:13,404
took office as the first woman
to be named chief of police

3
00:00:13,448 --> 00:00:15,189
in the history of our city.

4
00:00:15,232 --> 00:00:17,017
To be clear, I didn't
hire Chief Thomas

5
00:00:17,060 --> 00:00:18,409
only because she is a woman.

6
00:00:18,453 --> 00:00:20,411
There was a prostitution scandal

7
00:00:20,455 --> 00:00:22,805
involving several police
officers and an underage girl

8
00:00:22,848 --> 00:00:24,285
with a learning disability,

9
00:00:24,328 --> 00:00:26,678
the previous chief was accused
by eight different women

10
00:00:26,722 --> 00:00:30,334
of sexual harassment and there
is a pending federal lawsuit,

11
00:00:30,378 --> 00:00:32,815
but I would never make
a decision like this

12
00:00:32,858 --> 00:00:34,904
out of political expediency.

13
00:00:34,947 --> 00:00:38,038
Public safety is more than my
most important responsibility.

14
00:00:38,081 --> 00:00:40,083
It is a sacred... Battery's dead.

15
00:00:40,127 --> 00:00:42,235
- Why can't I say that I hired her because she's a woman?
- It's not good.

16
00:00:42,259 --> 00:00:43,584
I just hired the first
female police chief

17
00:00:43,608 --> 00:00:45,349
in the history of Los Angeles,

18
00:00:45,393 --> 00:00:46,587
not to mention
Chicago and New York.

19
00:00:46,611 --> 00:00:47,719
Why is that not a good thing?

20
00:00:47,743 --> 00:00:48,918
You dropped a line.

21
00:00:48,961 --> 00:00:50,113
I'm not saying that line."There are a few

22
00:00:50,137 --> 00:00:51,399
bad apples in every barrel."

23
00:00:51,442 --> 00:00:52,704
A federal judge made me

24
00:00:52,748 --> 00:00:54,552
hire a woman...
That's known to everyone, right?

25
00:00:54,576 --> 00:00:57,100
Police union asked
if you could say it. There are no apples

26
00:00:57,144 --> 00:00:59,363
in Los Angeles.
It never gets cold enough.

27
00:00:59,407 --> 00:01:00,930
It's a proverb. A cop

28
00:01:00,973 --> 00:01:02,932
who pimps out a 15-year-old girl
with an 80 IQ

29
00:01:02,975 --> 00:01:04,412
is not an apple,
he is not a quince,

30
00:01:04,455 --> 00:01:07,154
he is not a loquat,
he is a scumbag.

31
00:01:07,197 --> 00:01:08,696
It will look like you submitted
to political pressure,

32
00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:11,201
not to your voters,
to swing voters.

33
00:01:11,245 --> 00:01:13,943
These are the pleasures
of term limits,

34
00:01:13,986 --> 00:01:16,467
my friend. You've got to think
about what's next.

35
00:01:18,513 --> 00:01:20,819
Apples.

36
00:01:20,863 --> 00:01:23,257
What am I, the mayor
of Burlington, Vermont?

37
00:01:23,300 --> 00:01:24,736
♪

38
00:01:34,616 --> 00:01:38,098
♪ This feeling any longer...

39
00:01:39,142 --> 00:01:41,188
♪ In my heart

40
00:01:41,231 --> 00:01:42,972
♪ I thought that...

41
00:02:06,648 --> 00:02:09,085
♪

42
00:02:37,679 --> 00:02:38,767
Madison!

43
00:03:00,136 --> 00:03:02,269
You cannot detain this woman.

44
00:03:02,312 --> 00:03:04,445
She is under arrest
and in my custody.

45
00:03:04,488 --> 00:03:05,794
Arrest for what?

46
00:03:05,837 --> 00:03:07,970
Broken taillight.

47
00:03:11,321 --> 00:03:12,975
Attention.

48
00:03:13,018 --> 00:03:15,499
Okay, guys.
We're not gonna do that

49
00:03:15,543 --> 00:03:17,980
all the time or you're all gonna
need knee replacements.

50
00:03:18,023 --> 00:03:19,982
Dale, what's going on
down there?

51
00:03:20,025 --> 00:03:22,419
ICE went to detain
an illegal alien,

52
00:03:22,463 --> 00:03:24,900
Maria de la Puerta,
with her daughter.

53
00:03:24,943 --> 00:03:27,729
An LAPD officer got there first,
took her into custody.

54
00:03:27,772 --> 00:03:29,687
He says he made a lawful arrest.

55
00:03:29,731 --> 00:03:31,733
The ICE people
say he got in their way.

56
00:03:31,776 --> 00:03:33,735
Now they won't let him leave.

57
00:03:33,778 --> 00:03:37,217
So, uh, the four cars around
our patrol car are all ICE?

58
00:03:37,260 --> 00:03:38,566
They won't budge.

59
00:03:38,609 --> 00:03:40,370
Yeah, nobody ever budges.
I mean, people budge.

60
00:03:40,394 --> 00:03:42,570
No, they don't. They
just stop not budging.

61
00:03:42,613 --> 00:03:43,634
Who's giving them their orders?

62
00:03:43,658 --> 00:03:44,809
A guy named Weathers.

63
00:03:44,833 --> 00:03:46,791
Decent enough guy.

64
00:03:46,835 --> 00:03:48,010
He runs ICE out here.

65
00:03:49,620 --> 00:03:51,020
You thinking about
going down there?

66
00:03:51,056 --> 00:03:53,233
Chief, right now
it's one rogue cop.

67
00:03:53,276 --> 00:03:56,279
If you get involved,
it's the LAPD versus ICE.

68
00:03:56,323 --> 00:03:58,455
So if it spins out of control,
you're gonna wear it.

69
00:03:58,499 --> 00:03:59,737
All right, look,
I-I know you all think

70
00:03:59,761 --> 00:04:01,217
that you're auditioning
for your jobs,

71
00:04:01,241 --> 00:04:02,783
but I-I didn't come out here
to go to golf tournaments.

72
00:04:02,807 --> 00:04:05,027
I'm a cop.
I got to see for myself.

73
00:04:05,070 --> 00:04:07,725
Oh, and see if you can get
this, uh, Mr. Weathers to budge

74
00:04:07,769 --> 00:04:10,250
down there, too.

75
00:04:10,293 --> 00:04:12,140
Who wants to go downtown and get
hit in the head with a bottle?

76
00:04:12,164 --> 00:04:13,620
Oh, I don't think it's safe for
you to go out there, Chief.

77
00:04:13,644 --> 00:04:15,298
I'll take this guy.

78
00:04:15,342 --> 00:04:16,623
The last thing I need
is security detail

79
00:04:16,647 --> 00:04:18,190
who's worried about hurting
his drinking hand.

80
00:04:18,214 --> 00:04:19,409
Well, I'm not afraid of nothing.

81
00:04:19,433 --> 00:04:20,782
Not in that suit.

82
00:04:20,825 --> 00:04:22,629
I have the same tailor in
New York as Al Sharpton.

83
00:04:22,653 --> 00:04:24,307
What's your name, Flash? Abnar Diaz.

84
00:04:24,351 --> 00:04:25,482
Bronx? Mott Haven.

85
00:04:25,526 --> 00:04:26,657
Hicksville. Hicksville?

86
00:04:26,701 --> 00:04:27,963
Long Island. Hicksville?

87
00:04:28,006 --> 00:04:29,486
H-Hicksville's not Hicksville.

88
00:04:29,530 --> 00:04:30,792
Hicksville is Hicksville.

89
00:04:30,835 --> 00:04:32,715
No, Hicksville is not being
able to get a bagel.

90
00:04:32,750 --> 00:04:33,988
I see where
you're going with this.

91
00:04:34,012 --> 00:04:35,927
Hicksville is not being able
to get a slice.

92
00:04:35,971 --> 00:04:37,102
Youcan't.

93
00:04:37,146 --> 00:04:39,061
Here. I got a guy.

94
00:04:39,104 --> 00:04:40,541
A real New York slice?

95
00:04:42,717 --> 00:04:45,720
Diaz, these are
invaluable skills.

96
00:05:13,095 --> 00:05:14,942
Uh, Chief, the mayor's office
asked that you hold off

97
00:05:14,966 --> 00:05:16,359
making any kind of statement.

98
00:05:16,403 --> 00:05:18,361
The office asked?
What, it was like,

99
00:05:18,405 --> 00:05:20,363
Beauty and the Beast,
where the furniture talks?

100
00:05:20,407 --> 00:05:24,149
Uh, the deputy mayor
for Homeland Security...

101
00:05:24,193 --> 00:05:25,716
Are we being invaded?

102
00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:27,805
...and Public Safety.

103
00:05:27,849 --> 00:05:29,372
Um... You tell the
deputy mayor

104
00:05:29,416 --> 00:05:31,722
that, uh, public safety
is the job of the police.

105
00:05:31,766 --> 00:05:33,724
And I'm sure he can find
something else to do.

106
00:05:33,768 --> 00:05:34,986
Mr. Weathers.

107
00:05:35,030 --> 00:05:37,293
Uh, can we, uh,
have the room cleared, please,

108
00:05:37,337 --> 00:05:40,383
so, uh, Mr. Weathers and I
can talk in private?

109
00:05:44,518 --> 00:05:46,389
We are law enforcement officers,

110
00:05:46,433 --> 00:05:48,739
just like you.
Just like yo...

111
00:05:48,783 --> 00:05:50,703
Guy, I'm sorry, I think
we-we skipped the intros.

112
00:05:50,741 --> 00:05:53,527
I'm Abigail Thomas.
Usually just Tommy.

113
00:05:53,570 --> 00:05:55,529
Last person who called me
Abigail was my father,

114
00:05:55,572 --> 00:05:56,878
and he died when I was five.

115
00:05:56,921 --> 00:05:58,183
That woman...

116
00:05:58,227 --> 00:06:00,664
Maria whatever...
She may be a very nice person,

117
00:06:00,708 --> 00:06:03,319
she could be Mother Teresa
for all I care.

118
00:06:03,363 --> 00:06:05,408
She still entered
this country illegally.

119
00:06:05,452 --> 00:06:08,169
I agree with you. No, I-no, I agree
with you. And under the law... Under...

120
00:06:08,193 --> 00:06:09,847
Under... I-I agree with you.

121
00:06:09,891 --> 00:06:12,372
I'm a cop, you're a cop,
my father was a cop.

122
00:06:12,415 --> 00:06:15,940
We enforce the law because
that's how we can best serve

123
00:06:15,984 --> 00:06:17,855
the people who need
our protection most.

124
00:06:17,899 --> 00:06:19,790
That patrolman deliberately
interfered with our arrest.

125
00:06:19,814 --> 00:06:21,816
Yeah, which we will
properly investigate.

126
00:06:21,859 --> 00:06:24,122
W-Which is not gonna
happen tonight.

127
00:06:24,166 --> 00:06:26,734
What will happen tonight...
Because we're cops...

128
00:06:26,777 --> 00:06:28,692
Is we're gonna defuse
that bomb out there

129
00:06:28,736 --> 00:06:30,607
so everybody gets home safe.

130
00:06:30,651 --> 00:06:34,002
And if I determine that that
officer exceeded his authority,

131
00:06:34,045 --> 00:06:35,830
he will be, uh, disciplined.

132
00:06:35,873 --> 00:06:37,614
You have my word on that.

133
00:06:41,575 --> 00:06:43,751
All right.

134
00:07:05,250 --> 00:07:07,470
Hi.
I'm Abigail Thomas.

135
00:07:07,514 --> 00:07:08,950
Uh, you can call me Tommy.

136
00:07:08,993 --> 00:07:10,865
Hablo español

137
00:07:10,908 --> 00:07:12,649
solamente un poco.
¿Hablas inglés?

138
00:07:12,693 --> 00:07:14,477
What's going to happen
to Madison?

139
00:07:14,521 --> 00:07:15,870
You understand

140
00:07:15,913 --> 00:07:16,871
that you're under arrest,
that your daughter

141
00:07:16,914 --> 00:07:18,307
can't come with you.

142
00:07:18,350 --> 00:07:20,527
Do you have a relative
who can pick her up?

143
00:07:20,570 --> 00:07:21,789
If I'm sent home to Mexico...

144
00:07:21,832 --> 00:07:23,747
Oh, oh, slow down.
First of all,

145
00:07:23,791 --> 00:07:26,881
we need to get you away
from here, where it's dangerous,

146
00:07:26,924 --> 00:07:29,449
and take you and your daughter
to police headquarters

147
00:07:29,492 --> 00:07:30,754
where it's safe.

148
00:07:30,798 --> 00:07:32,495
I understand.

149
00:07:32,539 --> 00:07:33,777
And if you don't have a relative

150
00:07:33,801 --> 00:07:36,238
who can pick her up,
I am the chief of police

151
00:07:36,281 --> 00:07:38,980
and I promise you
she will be safe.

152
00:07:39,023 --> 00:07:41,025
Madison, you want to take a ride
in my police car?

153
00:07:42,940 --> 00:07:45,116
Okay, come on.

154
00:07:58,695 --> 00:08:00,828
You're the chief of police?

155
00:08:00,871 --> 00:08:03,700
Yeah.
Think somebody made a mistake.

156
00:08:05,746 --> 00:08:08,183
I thought she wasn't
gonna make a statement.

157
00:08:08,226 --> 00:08:10,968
Technically,
it's not a statement.

158
00:08:11,012 --> 00:08:14,189
She walks fearlessly through
a violent crowd of protestors

159
00:08:14,232 --> 00:08:16,234
and lifts the little girl
up into her arms,

160
00:08:16,278 --> 00:08:19,673
having defused the crisis, and
that's not making a statement?

161
00:08:19,716 --> 00:08:21,675
It's a compelling image. You admit

162
00:08:21,718 --> 00:08:22,893
that's making a statement.

163
00:08:22,937 --> 00:08:24,286
You're the mayor.

164
00:08:24,329 --> 00:08:25,940
Didn't we talk about this?

165
00:08:25,983 --> 00:08:27,376
Sure. It's making
a statement.

166
00:08:27,419 --> 00:08:29,683
And you told them no statement.
Didn't you?

167
00:08:29,726 --> 00:08:31,380
We heard she had sharp elbows.

168
00:08:31,423 --> 00:08:33,817
Doug, I really want you
to think before you speak.

169
00:08:33,861 --> 00:08:36,516
For your own good, because when
you make these stupid excuses,

170
00:08:36,559 --> 00:08:38,256
it hurts you and me
because we're trying

171
00:08:38,300 --> 00:08:40,868
to make people think you're
smarter than you actually are.

172
00:08:43,218 --> 00:08:45,568
Did you ask her
about her sexuality?

173
00:08:45,612 --> 00:08:47,178
When?

174
00:08:47,222 --> 00:08:49,833
In the interview.

175
00:08:49,877 --> 00:08:51,835
What does her sexuality
have to do with this?

176
00:08:51,879 --> 00:08:54,272
Well, gay people are
more independent-minded,

177
00:08:54,316 --> 00:08:55,839
by definition,

178
00:08:55,883 --> 00:08:59,321
'cause they're diverging
from the majority view.

179
00:09:00,627 --> 00:09:03,412
So I just fired
the previous chief of police

180
00:09:03,455 --> 00:09:06,328
for texting penis pics to his
chief of traffic enforcement,

181
00:09:06,371 --> 00:09:09,244
police officers were caught
running a prostitution ring

182
00:09:09,287 --> 00:09:11,463
with an underage girl
with a learning disability,

183
00:09:11,507 --> 00:09:13,988
a consent decree placed
the entire department

184
00:09:14,031 --> 00:09:15,772
under the control
of a federal judge

185
00:09:15,816 --> 00:09:17,992
who made me hire
a qualified woman,

186
00:09:18,035 --> 00:09:20,603
of which there are about
three in the entire country,

187
00:09:20,647 --> 00:09:22,997
and you think that it would have
been a good idea for me

188
00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:25,260
to ask her in the interview
if she's a lesbian?

189
00:09:27,001 --> 00:09:28,350
It explains a lot.

190
00:09:28,393 --> 00:09:30,047
It explains a lot about you.

191
00:09:31,527 --> 00:09:33,616
If the girl that got arrested

192
00:09:33,660 --> 00:09:35,096
was a gang member

193
00:09:35,139 --> 00:09:38,012
or a prostitute instead
of Our Lady of Guadalupe...

194
00:09:38,055 --> 00:09:41,363
Which we're all
supposed to think...

195
00:09:41,406 --> 00:09:43,887
Then it's no longer compassion.

196
00:09:45,106 --> 00:09:46,803
It's incompetence.

197
00:09:48,326 --> 00:09:50,328
Do you know something?

198
00:09:52,766 --> 00:09:54,376
Can we call this a win for us?

199
00:09:55,420 --> 00:09:56,857
Well, uh, you understand
that's not

200
00:09:56,900 --> 00:09:58,380
why I did it.
But, uh, yeah.

201
00:09:58,423 --> 00:10:00,077
I'll take it.

202
00:10:00,121 --> 00:10:01,446
We're not finding any relatives

203
00:10:01,470 --> 00:10:04,081
for Madison. All right, well,
keep looking.

204
00:10:04,125 --> 00:10:05,929
Worse come to worst,
I'll just take her home with me. Chief,

205
00:10:05,953 --> 00:10:07,432
you take a look at this?

206
00:10:08,738 --> 00:10:10,150
The social worker
won't let you take her home.

207
00:10:10,174 --> 00:10:11,349
It's the law.

208
00:10:11,393 --> 00:10:13,351
Tell the social worker
I want to talk to her.

209
00:10:14,701 --> 00:10:16,616
ICE agents
followed the little girl,

210
00:10:16,659 --> 00:10:18,443
knowing she would
lead them to her mother.

211
00:10:18,487 --> 00:10:20,445
And then Officer Reed
got in the mix.

212
00:10:20,489 --> 00:10:23,448
Who runs someone in
for a broken tail light?

213
00:10:23,492 --> 00:10:25,842
Which he broke. That's why
ICE was so ticked off.

214
00:10:25,886 --> 00:10:28,192
Then there's this.

215
00:10:28,236 --> 00:10:30,412
Uh, Reed's location history.

216
00:10:30,455 --> 00:10:33,110
This is his regular patrol area.

217
00:10:33,154 --> 00:10:35,112
Then...

218
00:10:35,156 --> 00:10:38,028
he goes all the way over here.

219
00:10:43,164 --> 00:10:45,209
What was he doing
out of his area?

220
00:10:52,652 --> 00:10:54,088
I'm sorry I'm late.

221
00:10:54,131 --> 00:10:55,872
No, sit down, gentlemen.

222
00:10:57,700 --> 00:11:00,050
Officer Reed,
what were you thinking?

223
00:11:00,094 --> 00:11:01,811
You mean did I arrest her
so that ICE couldn't?

224
00:11:01,835 --> 00:11:02,792
Did you?

225
00:11:02,836 --> 00:11:03,793
ICE stakes out little girls

226
00:11:03,837 --> 00:11:05,665
at school
to arrest their mothers.

227
00:11:05,708 --> 00:11:08,537
Nobody thinks I did anything
wrong here except the LAPD.

228
00:11:08,580 --> 00:11:10,670
Which I think is
a very interesting commentary

229
00:11:10,713 --> 00:11:12,672
on the state of affairs.

230
00:11:12,715 --> 00:11:14,978
Why was your car
outside your area?

231
00:11:17,720 --> 00:11:19,156
It's my old area. And?

232
00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:20,767
And I don't always

233
00:11:20,810 --> 00:11:21,855
stick to my area.

234
00:11:21,898 --> 00:11:23,987
So, no special reason?

235
00:11:24,031 --> 00:11:25,704
Look, if you guys
want to suspend me, go ahead.

236
00:11:25,728 --> 00:11:27,817
The union will back me up.

237
00:11:27,861 --> 00:11:29,558
I got nothing else to say.

238
00:11:29,601 --> 00:11:33,344
Mr. Reed, I would say
you're an unpersuasive idealist.

239
00:11:34,650 --> 00:11:36,391
You're dismissed.

240
00:11:48,577 --> 00:11:50,753
You trust him?

241
00:11:50,797 --> 00:11:51,885
Can I trust you?

242
00:11:55,540 --> 00:11:57,804
When I was chief of staff
for your predecessor,

243
00:11:57,847 --> 00:12:01,242
I, uh, I found out about
an affair he was having

244
00:12:01,285 --> 00:12:03,897
with a subordinate...
O-one of many.

245
00:12:03,940 --> 00:12:07,988
I, uh, knew about it because

246
00:12:08,031 --> 00:12:10,773
the woman involved asked me
to keep it a secret.

247
00:12:10,817 --> 00:12:12,819
So I did.

248
00:12:12,862 --> 00:12:14,472
I did not

249
00:12:14,516 --> 00:12:16,823
report it.
In fact,

250
00:12:16,866 --> 00:12:18,781
I tried to hide it.

251
00:12:18,825 --> 00:12:20,870
Who else knew?

252
00:12:20,914 --> 00:12:22,872
My wife.

253
00:12:22,916 --> 00:12:25,614
I'm not a talker.

254
00:12:29,444 --> 00:12:31,315
There was a bomb
down there tonight.

255
00:12:31,359 --> 00:12:33,840
I had to defuse that bomb.

256
00:12:33,883 --> 00:12:35,667
And you did it.

257
00:12:35,711 --> 00:12:37,278
So you think it's over?

258
00:12:40,150 --> 00:12:42,370
You're on the front page
of the newspaper

259
00:12:42,413 --> 00:12:44,894
rescuing that woman from ICE.

260
00:12:44,938 --> 00:12:47,723
And-and all we know about her
is that she broke the law

261
00:12:47,767 --> 00:12:49,420
at least once
to come into the country

262
00:12:49,464 --> 00:12:50,857
when she was 12 years old.

263
00:12:50,900 --> 00:12:54,251
And yet, somehow,
has no relatives in Los Angeles?

264
00:12:54,295 --> 00:12:55,818
That's a lie.

265
00:12:55,862 --> 00:12:57,559
And ICE is so gung-ho
to get her

266
00:12:57,602 --> 00:13:00,823
that they wound up in a standoff
with LAPD, but they say

267
00:13:00,867 --> 00:13:03,173
it was just routine.
That's a lie.

268
00:13:03,217 --> 00:13:05,828
Reed says it was
a traffic stop he made

269
00:13:05,872 --> 00:13:08,352
while nostalgically
wandering the old area.

270
00:13:08,396 --> 00:13:09,745
That's a lie.

271
00:13:09,789 --> 00:13:12,748
So, did you defuse the bomb?

272
00:13:12,792 --> 00:13:14,924
I would say you threw your body

273
00:13:14,968 --> 00:13:16,143
on top of it.

274
00:13:18,319 --> 00:13:20,669
If I fail,

275
00:13:20,712 --> 00:13:22,671
it will be 20 years
before they give

276
00:13:22,714 --> 00:13:24,325
another woman this job.

277
00:13:29,069 --> 00:13:31,332
Thanks for being straight.

278
00:13:31,375 --> 00:13:33,377
Goes a long way with me.

279
00:13:37,338 --> 00:13:38,861
Children's shelters are full.

280
00:13:38,905 --> 00:13:40,950
You're sure? We have

281
00:13:40,994 --> 00:13:43,474
63,000 kids living
on the street in this city.

282
00:13:43,518 --> 00:13:46,956
I am the chief of police
of the city of Los Angeles.

283
00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:49,176
I don't care
if you're Angelina Jolie.

284
00:13:49,219 --> 00:13:51,961
Okay, I will take her myself.

285
00:13:52,005 --> 00:13:54,703
You? Yes, I will take
her home with me.

286
00:13:55,965 --> 00:13:57,880
Are you a relative?

287
00:13:57,924 --> 00:13:58,968
No.

288
00:13:59,012 --> 00:14:00,013
Married?

289
00:14:00,056 --> 00:14:01,057
Divorced.

290
00:14:02,232 --> 00:14:04,887
Address?

291
00:14:04,931 --> 00:14:06,976
I am staying
at the Airport Westin.

292
00:14:08,717 --> 00:14:10,588
Just until I find a place.

293
00:14:10,632 --> 00:14:12,677
Little girl...

294
00:14:12,721 --> 00:14:13,896
I am putting you on a bus.

295
00:14:13,940 --> 00:14:15,419
A social worker will meet you

296
00:14:15,463 --> 00:14:16,464
at the other end.

297
00:14:16,507 --> 00:14:17,682
There's room in a shelter

298
00:14:17,726 --> 00:14:18,727
in Sacramento.

299
00:14:18,770 --> 00:14:20,033
What just happened?

300
00:14:20,076 --> 00:14:21,948
You expect me to release
this little girl into

301
00:14:21,991 --> 00:14:24,907
your custody when you are
not a relative, not married

302
00:14:24,951 --> 00:14:26,996
and living in a hotel?

303
00:14:27,040 --> 00:14:30,521
And that is the reason why
Brad Pitt left Angelina Jolie.

304
00:14:30,565 --> 00:14:33,263
Because she thought the whole
world revolved around her.

305
00:14:33,307 --> 00:14:35,918
I promised her mother that

306
00:14:35,962 --> 00:14:38,051
I would take responsibility
for her. I promised.

307
00:14:40,923 --> 00:14:43,665
All right,
I will call my daughter.

308
00:14:43,708 --> 00:14:45,623
She is a school psychologist.

309
00:14:45,667 --> 00:14:47,887
Uh, married, owns her house.

310
00:14:47,930 --> 00:14:49,976
Her husband is an engineer.

311
00:14:50,019 --> 00:14:51,586
He makes an excellent living.

312
00:14:51,629 --> 00:14:54,719
They have an eight-year-old
child and a golden retriever.

313
00:14:57,722 --> 00:14:59,202
Her name?

314
00:14:59,246 --> 00:15:00,508
When were you gonna call me?

315
00:15:00,551 --> 00:15:02,292
I wasn't gonna call you.

316
00:15:02,336 --> 00:15:04,164
Mm. So you only called
'cause you needed help.

317
00:15:04,207 --> 00:15:05,532
No, Kate, you asked me
not to call you.

318
00:15:05,556 --> 00:15:07,471
"This was a win
for mothers."

319
00:15:07,515 --> 00:15:09,473
Is that really what you said?

320
00:15:09,517 --> 00:15:12,215
L-Look, they stuck a
microphone in my face.

321
00:15:12,259 --> 00:15:13,434
Hey, Henry.

322
00:15:13,477 --> 00:15:15,001
Hi, Tommy.

323
00:15:15,044 --> 00:15:17,220
It's funny, I don't remember
you ever being a mother.

324
00:15:20,615 --> 00:15:22,008
Can we go?

325
00:15:52,734 --> 00:15:54,562
Door's open.

326
00:15:58,827 --> 00:16:01,221
One bottle of Sauvignon Blanc
and a side

327
00:16:01,264 --> 00:16:03,266
of mashed potatoes.

328
00:16:10,143 --> 00:16:11,883
Are you the new security detail?

329
00:16:11,927 --> 00:16:13,624
Abnar Diaz. Who are you? Ken Rosey.

330
00:16:13,668 --> 00:16:15,124
The chief said I could ride
with her this morning.

331
00:16:15,148 --> 00:16:16,105
She told me.

332
00:16:16,149 --> 00:16:17,585
Then why did you act surprised?

333
00:16:17,628 --> 00:16:19,065
Just messing with you.

334
00:16:19,108 --> 00:16:20,283
I'm the speechwriter.

335
00:16:20,327 --> 00:16:22,000
I thought you were
the SWAT team commander.

336
00:16:22,024 --> 00:16:23,175
Oh, I thought you were
the new shortstop.

337
00:16:23,199 --> 00:16:24,896
Are you here
for the poetry reading?

338
00:16:24,940 --> 00:16:26,811
Keep my car up front,
I'll give you a nice tip.

339
00:16:37,083 --> 00:16:38,823
'Cause it's nobody's business.

340
00:16:38,867 --> 00:16:41,087
You and the mayor are
the twin faces of the city.

341
00:16:41,130 --> 00:16:43,170
I don't want to know
what Buddy does in bed, either.

342
00:16:47,093 --> 00:16:49,443
The youngest
in the history of the NYPD

343
00:16:49,486 --> 00:16:51,053
to pass the captain's exam.

344
00:16:51,097 --> 00:16:53,055
The youngest
to get a precinct command.

345
00:16:53,099 --> 00:16:55,971
In 2008, you accused a deputy
chief of sexual harassment...

346
00:16:56,015 --> 00:16:57,973
I thought this was
a speech about Title IX.

347
00:16:58,017 --> 00:16:59,496
...and your career stalled.

348
00:16:59,540 --> 00:17:01,759
You don't think your sexuality
is relevant to that?

349
00:17:01,803 --> 00:17:03,544
I'm gay, Ken...
It's not a secret.

350
00:17:03,587 --> 00:17:05,198
But if you don't
talk about it...

351
00:17:05,241 --> 00:17:06,938
Announce it to the universe?

352
00:17:06,982 --> 00:17:08,114
It's a missed opportunity.

353
00:17:08,157 --> 00:17:10,246
You got a mint?

354
00:17:15,730 --> 00:17:17,427
Ah.

355
00:17:19,864 --> 00:17:21,257
What am I missing?

356
00:17:22,737 --> 00:17:25,653
He tried to rape me
in my hotel room.

357
00:17:25,696 --> 00:17:27,394
I broke his nose.

358
00:17:27,437 --> 00:17:30,527
They talked me into calling it
sexual harassment.

359
00:17:30,571 --> 00:17:32,094
Nothing happened to him.

360
00:17:32,138 --> 00:17:33,965
I lost ten years of my career

361
00:17:34,009 --> 00:17:36,055
and became a feminist icon.

362
00:17:36,098 --> 00:17:39,406
Frankly, I would rather
have the ten years back.

363
00:17:39,449 --> 00:17:41,451
Got something
I can wash my hands?

364
00:17:47,240 --> 00:17:48,328
I know it's hard.

365
00:17:50,156 --> 00:17:52,810
I just think some things
should be private. It's also

366
00:17:52,854 --> 00:17:56,031
the way you transform
the soul of the department.

367
00:17:56,075 --> 00:17:58,294
One hard thing at a time.

368
00:18:04,170 --> 00:18:05,736
He fired me. I was there.

369
00:18:05,780 --> 00:18:07,192
Maybe it looks different
when you're the one

370
00:18:07,216 --> 00:18:08,652
whose ass is getting fired.

371
00:18:08,696 --> 00:18:10,108
He did not fire you.
Buddy loves you.

372
00:18:10,132 --> 00:18:13,222
Don't talk to me like
I'm one of your girlfriends.

373
00:18:13,266 --> 00:18:15,485
Hey, Chief Leakey, looking good.

374
00:18:15,529 --> 00:18:17,270
Oh, I still got it, baby.

375
00:18:17,313 --> 00:18:19,924
Oh, well, we miss you, man.

376
00:18:19,968 --> 00:18:23,102
He let you retire
at full pension.

377
00:18:23,145 --> 00:18:24,581
Yeah, Buddy's
a good dude, but...

378
00:18:24,625 --> 00:18:26,192
Anyway, what's a girlfriend?

379
00:18:26,235 --> 00:18:28,977
I was gonna say
you're out of bed early.

380
00:18:29,020 --> 00:18:30,172
Well, you don't pay 'em
to come over, Milton.

381
00:18:30,196 --> 00:18:32,198
You pay 'em to leave.

382
00:18:32,241 --> 00:18:34,113
Um...

383
00:18:34,156 --> 00:18:36,811
Are you saying the door's open?

384
00:18:36,854 --> 00:18:38,073
Not entirely open.

385
00:18:38,117 --> 00:18:39,205
I mean...

386
00:18:39,248 --> 00:18:40,858
I love my new job.

387
00:18:40,902 --> 00:18:42,904
You're great on TV.

388
00:18:46,473 --> 00:18:48,127
The door's still open...

389
00:18:48,170 --> 00:18:50,129
Buddy said that?

390
00:18:50,172 --> 00:18:51,280
You're still beloved
by the rank-and-file.

391
00:18:51,304 --> 00:18:53,741
Butch Cassidy
has been here a week.

392
00:18:53,784 --> 00:18:55,177
Who knows what could happen.

393
00:18:55,221 --> 00:18:56,981
Yeah, I know she's only
a week in the job, but...

394
00:18:57,005 --> 00:18:58,789
Tommy.Tommy.

395
00:18:58,833 --> 00:18:59,921
We agree.

396
00:18:59,964 --> 00:19:01,618
She let her emotions take over.

397
00:19:01,662 --> 00:19:03,185
Who gets blamed?

398
00:19:03,229 --> 00:19:05,013
Let me tell you something.

399
00:19:05,056 --> 00:19:07,276
Those ICE guys, they're lazy.

400
00:19:07,320 --> 00:19:10,192
Takes a lot to get them
off their ass.

401
00:19:10,236 --> 00:19:12,325
That little señorita
is guilty of something.

402
00:19:26,904 --> 00:19:28,689
Bank records from
my police sources

403
00:19:28,732 --> 00:19:32,606
show cash deposits...
$5,000 a month.

404
00:19:32,649 --> 00:19:34,521
For an illegal immigrant?

405
00:19:34,564 --> 00:19:36,740
With a sixth-grade education
and no job?

406
00:19:36,784 --> 00:19:38,786
Where's that money coming from?

407
00:19:38,829 --> 00:19:41,354
If she's a gang
member or a prostitute, uh...

408
00:19:41,397 --> 00:19:44,922
I'm sorry, Chief Thomas, then
it's not compassion anymore.

409
00:19:46,272 --> 00:19:47,969
It's incompetence.

410
00:19:48,012 --> 00:19:51,320
Video from the ATM confirms
the payments were made in cash.

411
00:19:51,364 --> 00:19:52,843
Aren't we just doing

412
00:19:52,887 --> 00:19:54,193
ICE's dirty work for them?

413
00:19:54,236 --> 00:19:55,257
ICE is under pressure
from Washington

414
00:19:55,281 --> 00:19:57,239
to detain more people.

415
00:19:57,283 --> 00:19:58,240
Oh, you mean like
a little girl's mother?

416
00:19:58,284 --> 00:20:00,634
Now we're the ones
investigating her?

417
00:20:00,677 --> 00:20:02,177
You're a speechwriter. I'm also a lawyer.

418
00:20:02,201 --> 00:20:03,767
An overqualified speechwriter.

419
00:20:03,811 --> 00:20:05,441
We shouldn't cooperate
with ICE on any of this.

420
00:20:05,465 --> 00:20:07,249
We also found this

421
00:20:07,293 --> 00:20:08,511
in the gang database.

422
00:20:08,555 --> 00:20:11,210
José Hernández
of the 13th Street Rollers.

423
00:20:11,253 --> 00:20:12,950
He's Maria's cousin.

424
00:20:12,994 --> 00:20:15,257
The girls in these gangs
buy guns, run drugs.

425
00:20:15,301 --> 00:20:17,085
Sometimes more.

426
00:20:17,128 --> 00:20:19,043
You sound like Milt Leakey. Milt Leakey

427
00:20:19,087 --> 00:20:21,394
had a lot of friends
in LAPD, and still does.

428
00:20:21,437 --> 00:20:23,700
Are you one
of those friends, Chuck? Leakey had nothing

429
00:20:23,744 --> 00:20:25,789
to do with the minor
who was prostituted.

430
00:20:25,833 --> 00:20:27,071
All the women
he had affairs with

431
00:20:27,095 --> 00:20:29,053
were consenting adults.

432
00:20:29,097 --> 00:20:31,447
His wife might have a beef,
but I don't.

433
00:20:32,927 --> 00:20:35,364
Maybe talk to Maria, Chief.

434
00:20:35,408 --> 00:20:37,279
Ask her where she got the money.

435
00:20:37,323 --> 00:20:38,778
You get as far away
from Maria as you can.

436
00:20:38,802 --> 00:20:41,283
It'll look like you're
meddling in an investigation.

437
00:20:41,327 --> 00:20:43,764
And with everyone watching you,

438
00:20:43,807 --> 00:20:45,200
including everyone
around here...

439
00:20:46,636 --> 00:20:48,310
You were a hero when you
walked into that riot.

440
00:20:48,334 --> 00:20:49,770
That's still our story.

441
00:20:51,424 --> 00:20:54,078
Wait a minute.
Is-is this a head shot?

442
00:20:54,122 --> 00:20:56,342
Apparently, he's also an actor.

443
00:20:59,823 --> 00:21:02,870
You seemed like you wanted
to say something in there.

444
00:21:02,913 --> 00:21:04,785
I'd like to know
what Chuck would say

445
00:21:04,828 --> 00:21:06,656
if his old boss asked him
to sit on his desk.

446
00:21:06,700 --> 00:21:09,311
Did you?

447
00:21:09,355 --> 00:21:11,400
Did you? Um...

448
00:21:11,444 --> 00:21:14,316
before or after I became
a feminist icon?

449
00:21:16,013 --> 00:21:18,451
I-It's a game with these guys.

450
00:21:18,494 --> 00:21:20,279
You're-you're friendly,

451
00:21:20,322 --> 00:21:21,995
but not in a way
that could be misconstrued.

452
00:21:22,019 --> 00:21:23,339
You stay between
him and the door.

453
00:21:23,369 --> 00:21:24,848
And then,
if something happens...

454
00:21:24,892 --> 00:21:27,764
Then you lost the game that day.
If Chuck loses his job,

455
00:21:27,808 --> 00:21:30,332
then some other guy like Chuck...
Maybe even named Chuck...

456
00:21:30,376 --> 00:21:31,855
Will give Chuck a job

457
00:21:31,899 --> 00:21:34,728
as head of security at
Chuck Corp. I-If I lose my job,

458
00:21:34,771 --> 00:21:37,600
I'm-I'm sleeping on my mother's
boyfriend's couch in Pacoima.

459
00:21:39,210 --> 00:21:41,082
Blake...

460
00:21:41,125 --> 00:21:43,693
I don't want you
to play that game anymore.

461
00:21:43,737 --> 00:21:44,868
Understood?

462
00:21:46,740 --> 00:21:48,611
I don't lose.

463
00:21:48,655 --> 00:21:51,266
Listen...

464
00:21:51,310 --> 00:21:52,920
the mayor wants me
to meet in his office

465
00:21:52,963 --> 00:21:54,487
with community leaders

466
00:21:54,530 --> 00:21:56,358
to discuss the situation
with Maria.

467
00:21:59,709 --> 00:22:01,058
Should I go?

468
00:22:02,103 --> 00:22:03,496
It's an ambush.

469
00:22:03,539 --> 00:22:05,541
But I think
you can handle yourself.

470
00:22:13,419 --> 00:22:15,377
You wanted to see me, boss?

471
00:22:15,421 --> 00:22:18,075
You used to be
a detective, right?

472
00:22:18,119 --> 00:22:19,816
The best.

473
00:22:20,904 --> 00:22:23,167
I'll be the judge of that.

474
00:22:23,211 --> 00:22:25,169
Anything for me to go on?

475
00:22:25,213 --> 00:22:27,433
You know anything about acting?

476
00:22:27,476 --> 00:22:29,130
How do I look?

477
00:22:29,173 --> 00:22:31,132
You look like
the chief of police.

478
00:22:42,448 --> 00:22:43,971
You're doing
the dirty work of ICE.

479
00:22:44,014 --> 00:22:45,427
What happens
when you release her?

480
00:22:45,451 --> 00:22:46,732
You can't answer! MAN: I'll
tell you what happens:

481
00:22:46,756 --> 00:22:48,081
ICE comes and grabs her. Those ICE people

482
00:22:48,105 --> 00:22:51,413
wait outside the courthouse.
Even a woman

483
00:22:51,457 --> 00:22:54,297
who goes to court for a restraining order?
Nothing has changed, nothing.

484
00:22:54,329 --> 00:22:56,655
No, it was our officer who protected
her from ICE.That officer is a hero.

485
00:22:56,679 --> 00:22:59,682
Okay, okay.
Tommy, Arturo Lopez.

486
00:22:59,726 --> 00:23:01,423
He's a great supporter
of the mayor,

487
00:23:01,467 --> 00:23:03,382
and not only just for Latinos,

488
00:23:03,425 --> 00:23:04,557
also, for example,

489
00:23:04,600 --> 00:23:06,297
the Year of the Woman
initiative.

490
00:23:06,341 --> 00:23:08,517
Mm-hmm. Arturo, would you
like to say something?

491
00:23:08,561 --> 00:23:11,390
Yes, thank you, Doug. Look,
my people didn't go to Oxford

492
00:23:11,433 --> 00:23:12,608
like my friend the mayor.

493
00:23:12,652 --> 00:23:14,654
They don't know about
"sanctuary city."

494
00:23:14,697 --> 00:23:17,004
All they see is this
beautiful Latina girl

495
00:23:17,047 --> 00:23:18,614
is still in jail.
Why?

496
00:23:18,658 --> 00:23:21,008
And her daughter living with,
who, some Anglos?

497
00:23:21,051 --> 00:23:23,445
She's living with my daughter
and her family.

498
00:23:23,489 --> 00:23:24,944
Instead of living
with her own mother.

499
00:23:24,968 --> 00:23:27,449
The only way I can
protect Maria right now

500
00:23:27,493 --> 00:23:28,798
is by keeping her in jail.

501
00:23:28,842 --> 00:23:31,279
By law, you can only
hold her for 48 hours.

502
00:23:31,322 --> 00:23:33,150
Or you can petition
a judge to extend that,

503
00:23:33,194 --> 00:23:36,850
and we have, starting with
bank records that gave the judge

504
00:23:36,893 --> 00:23:38,852
reason to believe
that Maria de la Puerta

505
00:23:38,895 --> 00:23:40,767
is guilty of a serious crime.

506
00:23:40,810 --> 00:23:43,465
So whoever leaked those

507
00:23:43,509 --> 00:23:45,424
bank records to make me
look bad...

508
00:23:45,467 --> 00:23:47,469
I guess it backfired.

509
00:23:49,602 --> 00:23:53,127
Who wants to go see Grandma?

510
00:23:53,170 --> 00:23:54,345
Grandma's not here.

511
00:23:54,389 --> 00:23:55,869
Where's your Grandma live?

512
00:23:55,912 --> 00:23:57,523
Oregon. No, other Grandma.

513
00:23:57,566 --> 00:23:59,568
She's in her office.
We can walk.

514
00:24:05,313 --> 00:24:07,141
Does Grandma like dogs?

515
00:24:07,184 --> 00:24:09,448
Grandma loves dogs.

516
00:24:11,972 --> 00:24:14,453
Will you just tell me the next
time you're coming downtown?

517
00:24:14,496 --> 00:24:16,846
I tried to call you. I've just been...

518
00:24:16,890 --> 00:24:18,476
You know what?
I'm not even gonna say it.

519
00:24:18,500 --> 00:24:19,936
I know you're busy.

520
00:24:19,980 --> 00:24:22,809
Can we just stipulate
that, uh, I'm a terrible mother,

521
00:24:22,852 --> 00:24:25,420
I've always been a terrible mother.
You were a terrible mother.

522
00:24:25,464 --> 00:24:27,248
I was not a terrible mother.

523
00:24:28,771 --> 00:24:31,426
I was a B. B-minus.

524
00:24:31,470 --> 00:24:34,211
I don't even know why
I even keep trying. Look,

525
00:24:34,255 --> 00:24:36,605
Kate, you left home for reasons

526
00:24:36,649 --> 00:24:38,172
that had nothing
to do with me...

527
00:24:38,215 --> 00:24:39,739
I left to live with Dad.

528
00:24:39,782 --> 00:24:42,437
...or your dad.
How is Madison doing?

529
00:24:42,481 --> 00:24:45,484
You can't just
change the subject like that.

530
00:24:45,527 --> 00:24:48,530
This is police headquarters.
I can do whatever I want to do.

531
00:24:48,574 --> 00:24:50,793
You want to yell at me,
invite me to dinner.

532
00:24:52,273 --> 00:24:53,666
She sucks her thumb.

533
00:24:53,709 --> 00:24:56,016
Well, you sucked your thumb. Not at age 12.

534
00:24:56,059 --> 00:24:58,801
I brought her downtown
to go shopping

535
00:24:58,845 --> 00:25:01,674
and I thought since I was in the
neighborhood maybe you'd want

536
00:25:01,717 --> 00:25:04,546
to see your granddaughter
more than once a year.

537
00:25:04,590 --> 00:25:06,809
You left, Kate.
You left.

538
00:25:06,853 --> 00:25:09,159
This is the relationship
you wanted.

539
00:25:09,203 --> 00:25:12,598
My mother didn't get out of bed
after my father died.

540
00:25:12,641 --> 00:25:16,253
I was five. You have no idea
how hard life can be.

541
00:25:17,646 --> 00:25:20,301
And I'm stuck in my pants.

542
00:25:23,565 --> 00:25:26,263
Come to dinner.

543
00:25:26,307 --> 00:25:29,049
I'm sorry, Kate, I just... Tomorrow night.

544
00:25:32,095 --> 00:25:35,011
Come on, kids.

545
00:25:39,625 --> 00:25:40,930
"Let me get this straight.

546
00:25:40,974 --> 00:25:44,891
I steal your dope,
beat the crap out of your..."

547
00:25:44,934 --> 00:25:47,502
"Mealboy."

548
00:25:47,546 --> 00:25:48,634
"Mealboy."

549
00:25:48,677 --> 00:25:52,246
José Hernández? You're up, bro.

550
00:25:58,861 --> 00:26:01,037
Wait a minute,
are you José Hernández?

551
00:26:01,081 --> 00:26:03,562
That movie you did
with Steven Seagal...

552
00:26:03,605 --> 00:26:06,129
I had seen a lot of people
who were killed at the time,

553
00:26:06,173 --> 00:26:07,348
so I used that.

554
00:26:07,391 --> 00:26:09,480
I had the worst audition
of my life today.

555
00:26:09,524 --> 00:26:10,525
You want to get a drink?

556
00:26:10,569 --> 00:26:13,180
Yeah.

557
00:26:14,964 --> 00:26:16,618
He's not in his gang anymore.

558
00:26:16,662 --> 00:26:19,012
He's in his gang the way
Derek Jeter's still a Yankee.

559
00:26:19,055 --> 00:26:20,796
But he's still in the database?

560
00:26:20,840 --> 00:26:22,319
The database is forever.

561
00:26:22,363 --> 00:26:23,625
So what's the story?

562
00:26:23,669 --> 00:26:25,192
ICE has to show results, right?

563
00:26:25,235 --> 00:26:27,629
José Hernández looks like
he'll rape your grandmother.

564
00:26:27,673 --> 00:26:29,413
They arrest him,
that looks like results.

565
00:26:29,457 --> 00:26:32,808
Is this a story or a theory?
A cop told him that.

566
00:26:32,852 --> 00:26:34,636
Put that face on TV,
that's all they see.

567
00:26:34,680 --> 00:26:36,309
Looks like he's involved
in something bad,

568
00:26:36,333 --> 00:26:38,181
it looks like Maria's
involved in something bad,

569
00:26:38,205 --> 00:26:39,835
while what José Hernández
is mostly involved in

570
00:26:39,859 --> 00:26:41,469
is bad TV shows.

571
00:26:41,512 --> 00:26:44,646
So what was Reed doing there? I don't know.

572
00:26:44,690 --> 00:26:46,517
And where did
the money come from?

573
00:26:46,561 --> 00:26:47,518
You sitting down?

574
00:26:47,562 --> 00:26:49,216
Si... Where am I going?

575
00:26:49,259 --> 00:26:53,046
The mayor's friend
from the meeting, Arturo Lopez,

576
00:26:53,089 --> 00:26:54,482
he's the little girl's father.

577
00:26:54,525 --> 00:26:56,658
Let me get around this traffic.

578
00:26:56,702 --> 00:26:58,529
What?

579
00:27:15,372 --> 00:27:16,591
How do I look?

580
00:27:16,635 --> 00:27:19,507
Impressive.

581
00:27:19,550 --> 00:27:21,030
Not tired? I like it when people say

582
00:27:21,074 --> 00:27:22,597
I look great for how tired
I must feel.

583
00:27:23,685 --> 00:27:25,600
I'll take it.

584
00:27:25,644 --> 00:27:26,645
You like the Glock?

585
00:27:26,688 --> 00:27:29,299
Y-You like to shoot?

586
00:27:29,343 --> 00:27:31,345
I'm from Michigan.

587
00:27:32,781 --> 00:27:34,696
How do you like L.A.?

588
00:27:34,740 --> 00:27:37,351
We're not like this in Michigan.

589
00:27:48,362 --> 00:27:50,146
Old habits die hard.

590
00:27:50,190 --> 00:27:52,453
I was in and out of
this office all the time

591
00:27:52,496 --> 00:27:53,933
with the old chief.

592
00:27:53,976 --> 00:27:55,674
How can I help you?

593
00:27:55,717 --> 00:27:58,198
Oh, no, no, uh,
how can I help you?

594
00:27:58,241 --> 00:28:00,461
Knock next time?

595
00:28:03,943 --> 00:28:06,032
Can I speak off the record?

596
00:28:06,075 --> 00:28:08,425
Well, why don't we
start on the record.

597
00:28:08,469 --> 00:28:10,776
Do you have a relationship
with Maria de la Puerta?

598
00:28:10,819 --> 00:28:12,429
Maria de la Puerta and I

599
00:28:12,473 --> 00:28:15,084
have been in a romantic
relationship for years.

600
00:28:15,128 --> 00:28:16,738
I helped her get
into this country...

601
00:28:16,782 --> 00:28:18,305
And this is off the record...

602
00:28:18,348 --> 00:28:20,699
Illegally, which is not unusual,

603
00:28:20,742 --> 00:28:22,744
as we are all very aware.

604
00:28:22,788 --> 00:28:25,225
And, yes, I am the father
of her child.

605
00:28:25,268 --> 00:28:27,706
And I can see you
doing the math already.

606
00:28:27,749 --> 00:28:29,185
She was 15 when
she became pregnant,

607
00:28:29,229 --> 00:28:30,926
and I was in my 30s.

608
00:28:30,970 --> 00:28:34,364
Hey, in my country,
it's not that uncommon.

609
00:28:34,408 --> 00:28:36,410
I've always taken care of them.

610
00:28:37,498 --> 00:28:38,891
Look, um...

611
00:28:38,934 --> 00:28:41,676
I knew your investigation
would ultimately find

612
00:28:41,720 --> 00:28:44,984
the connection
between me and Maria.

613
00:28:45,027 --> 00:28:48,117
Maria and I,
we-we had a quarrel.

614
00:28:48,161 --> 00:28:51,077
She wants to spread her wings.
Hey, I understand it,

615
00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:52,339
but I got jealous.

616
00:28:52,382 --> 00:28:54,776
I-I was sure
there was another man.

617
00:28:54,820 --> 00:28:56,735
I knew Reed
from police charities,

618
00:28:56,778 --> 00:28:58,824
to which I always give,

619
00:28:58,867 --> 00:29:01,130
and just asked him
to keep an eye on her.

620
00:29:01,174 --> 00:29:04,438
Which is why he was on the scene
when ICE tried to detain her.

621
00:29:04,481 --> 00:29:07,789
If my situation
with Maria comes to light...

622
00:29:07,833 --> 00:29:10,313
it will be very hurtful
for my wife

623
00:29:10,357 --> 00:29:12,446
and-and personally
embarrassing to me.

624
00:29:12,489 --> 00:29:14,317
What... To-to what purpose?

625
00:29:14,361 --> 00:29:16,406
Well, if we weren't
off the record,

626
00:29:16,450 --> 00:29:17,799
I would say you just confessed

627
00:29:17,843 --> 00:29:19,932
to the international
sex trafficking of a minor.

628
00:29:19,975 --> 00:29:22,935
Maria's had a great life,
the life she wanted,

629
00:29:22,978 --> 00:29:25,807
a beautiful daughter.
Where's the harm?

630
00:29:25,851 --> 00:29:28,288
Why do I feel like
this isn't the whole story?

631
00:29:29,680 --> 00:29:32,205
You, uh, came to Los Angeles
to do other things

632
00:29:32,248 --> 00:29:34,076
than torment Arturo Lopez.

633
00:29:34,120 --> 00:29:36,252
If you do me this favor
I can help you

634
00:29:36,296 --> 00:29:37,776
in many, many ways

635
00:29:37,819 --> 00:29:40,866
as diverse and, uh, magical

636
00:29:40,909 --> 00:29:43,738
as this city
you now call your own.

637
00:29:43,782 --> 00:29:46,697
Just as, uh, I have helped

638
00:29:46,741 --> 00:29:48,569
many, many others

639
00:29:48,612 --> 00:29:50,179
who you will have to work with.

640
00:29:54,357 --> 00:29:55,706
I just think

641
00:29:55,750 --> 00:29:57,926
that it was imprudent
to talk to him about it.

642
00:29:57,970 --> 00:30:00,233
He showed up in my office.

643
00:30:00,276 --> 00:30:01,843
Out of the blue? Mr. Mayor,

644
00:30:01,887 --> 00:30:03,889
what about the substance
of these allegations?

645
00:30:03,932 --> 00:30:05,823
Might I interject? BUDDY:
No, Mr. District Attorney,

646
00:30:05,847 --> 00:30:07,718
you may not interject.
If you're suggesting

647
00:30:07,762 --> 00:30:09,218
that I had any knowledge
that Arturo Lopez

648
00:30:09,242 --> 00:30:11,722
smuggled an underage girl
into this country and had

649
00:30:11,766 --> 00:30:13,483
gotten her pregnant... He's
not a friend of yours?

650
00:30:13,507 --> 00:30:15,291
Oh, what's a friend?

651
00:30:15,335 --> 00:30:17,008
Might I interject? I barely knew him.

652
00:30:17,032 --> 00:30:20,340
I put him on the Ethics
Commission as a favor to...

653
00:30:20,383 --> 00:30:22,908
- I don't remember, somebody.
- The daughter

654
00:30:22,951 --> 00:30:25,867
is 12. That means Maria was 15
when she got pregnant.

655
00:30:25,911 --> 00:30:28,087
I know.

656
00:30:29,479 --> 00:30:31,177
The optics are terrible.

657
00:30:31,220 --> 00:30:33,875
No, it's not just
the optics, Buddy.

658
00:30:33,919 --> 00:30:35,921
I think what
Blake is trying to say

659
00:30:35,964 --> 00:30:39,098
is it's Kremlin time.
Airbrush him from the picture,

660
00:30:39,141 --> 00:30:40,534
don't return his calls.

661
00:30:40,577 --> 00:30:42,666
He never existed. TOMMY: If I don't

662
00:30:42,710 --> 00:30:44,668
arrest him, it's a cover-up.

663
00:30:44,712 --> 00:30:46,366
Might I interject? Sure, Bob,

664
00:30:46,409 --> 00:30:48,847
interject at will. Would I want
Arturo Lopez

665
00:30:48,890 --> 00:30:51,197
for my son-in-law?
No.

666
00:30:51,240 --> 00:30:53,068
Unless she testifies

667
00:30:53,112 --> 00:30:56,115
against him, which I doubt,
what's the case?

668
00:30:57,681 --> 00:31:00,859
That's not a cover-up, Tommy,
that's real life.

669
00:31:09,606 --> 00:31:10,912
Tommy.

670
00:31:10,956 --> 00:31:12,348
Stick around for a minute.

671
00:31:23,011 --> 00:31:24,839
Clif Bar?

672
00:31:25,971 --> 00:31:27,891
I've been doing this a
very long time, Mr. Mayor.

673
00:31:27,929 --> 00:31:30,932
Do I have a case?
I have a crime.

674
00:31:30,976 --> 00:31:34,718
Bob Flake was elected
years ago by promising

675
00:31:34,762 --> 00:31:36,895
to decriminalize marijuana,
which he actually told me

676
00:31:36,938 --> 00:31:38,984
at one point makes him
a better lawyer.

677
00:31:39,027 --> 00:31:41,682
There are no term limits
on the D.A., okay?

678
00:31:41,725 --> 00:31:42,944
Bob Flake is, like,

679
00:31:42,988 --> 00:31:44,728
the furniture, he's here
until he dies of...

680
00:31:44,772 --> 00:31:46,774
whatever, weed cancer.

681
00:31:47,818 --> 00:31:50,125
But I'm the one
that runs this city.

682
00:31:50,169 --> 00:31:52,867
Can we say we run it together?

683
00:31:52,911 --> 00:31:55,304
I have two years left until,
as the kids say,

684
00:31:55,348 --> 00:31:57,916
I have to figure out
what I'm gonna do with my life,

685
00:31:57,959 --> 00:32:01,049
and after that,
city's all yours.

686
00:32:01,093 --> 00:32:03,399
Well, then you
had better tell me

687
00:32:03,443 --> 00:32:05,445
what you are looking for here.

688
00:32:06,881 --> 00:32:08,883
You do what you need to do.

689
00:32:10,276 --> 00:32:11,712
Clear?

690
00:32:13,496 --> 00:32:15,107
Okay, Mr. Mayor...

691
00:32:15,150 --> 00:32:16,891
Buddy.Ah.

692
00:32:16,935 --> 00:32:19,198
Mr. Mayor, thank
you for your time.

693
00:32:19,241 --> 00:32:21,983
Next time, if you got a problem,
call me on my cell.

694
00:32:22,027 --> 00:32:23,898
Okay? Leaks,

695
00:32:23,942 --> 00:32:25,204
disloyalty.Ah.

696
00:32:25,247 --> 00:32:26,921
Your office sounds
very much like my office.

697
00:32:26,945 --> 00:32:28,555
I had a mentor
when I first started out.

698
00:32:28,598 --> 00:32:30,054
I asked him,
"What's the secret to politics?"

699
00:32:30,078 --> 00:32:31,993
He told me to watch The Godfather.

700
00:32:41,046 --> 00:32:42,743
I'm sorry I'm late for dinner.

701
00:32:42,786 --> 00:32:45,572
I'll just put it
in the microwave.

702
00:32:49,402 --> 00:32:51,143
Is Henry at work?

703
00:32:51,186 --> 00:32:52,903
Well, they don't pay you
all that money for nothing.

704
00:32:52,927 --> 00:32:54,207
Is that what you were gonna say?

705
00:32:58,802 --> 00:33:02,328
Henry maximizes the addictive
power of a search algorithm,

706
00:33:02,371 --> 00:33:06,027
and he makes 20
times what I make.

707
00:33:06,941 --> 00:33:09,248
You don't think
that's a problem?

708
00:33:09,291 --> 00:33:12,903
Well, there does seem to be
some kind of a problem.

709
00:33:14,079 --> 00:33:15,950
I have to get the kids to bed.

710
00:33:15,994 --> 00:33:17,101
They want to sleep
in sleeping bags.

711
00:33:17,125 --> 00:33:18,300
Uh, you still gonna be here?

712
00:33:23,088 --> 00:33:25,046
It's Madison.

713
00:33:25,090 --> 00:33:28,093
Not just the thumb sucking.

714
00:33:29,094 --> 00:33:31,009
She's fearful.

715
00:33:31,052 --> 00:33:32,445
She wets the bed.

716
00:33:32,488 --> 00:33:34,447
She won't take her clothes
off in front of me.

717
00:33:34,490 --> 00:33:36,101
Just a lot of warning signs.

718
00:33:36,144 --> 00:33:38,059
All right, tell me.

719
00:33:38,103 --> 00:33:40,583
I think she was
being sexually abused.

720
00:33:40,627 --> 00:33:42,020
God.

721
00:33:42,063 --> 00:33:44,326
What is wrong with people?

722
00:33:49,505 --> 00:33:51,116
Use a mitt.

723
00:33:51,159 --> 00:33:53,944
Sometimes the plate gets hot.

724
00:33:59,602 --> 00:34:03,041
Girls, did you brush your teeth?

725
00:34:27,848 --> 00:34:29,850
I'll take care of it.

726
00:34:52,351 --> 00:34:54,440
This is my granddaughter, Luna.

727
00:34:54,483 --> 00:34:55,615
This is my daughter, Kate.

728
00:34:55,658 --> 00:34:57,443
What a smile.

729
00:34:57,486 --> 00:34:58,705
Like her father.

730
00:34:58,748 --> 00:35:01,708
Madison looks so happy.

731
00:35:01,751 --> 00:35:04,493
So, uh, who
was Madison's father?

732
00:35:05,538 --> 00:35:06,843
I don't know.

733
00:35:06,887 --> 00:35:08,236
You were 15 years old

734
00:35:08,280 --> 00:35:10,586
when Madison was born.
You don't remember?

735
00:35:11,544 --> 00:35:12,849
Is it the same man

736
00:35:12,893 --> 00:35:14,547
who brought you
into the country?

737
00:35:14,590 --> 00:35:17,376
Yes, he takes...

738
00:35:17,419 --> 00:35:19,552
He took care of us.

739
00:35:19,595 --> 00:35:21,510
You mean he sent you money.

740
00:35:22,946 --> 00:35:24,968
If you're under arrest and
you don't want to talk to me,

741
00:35:24,992 --> 00:35:26,124
I have to respect that.

742
00:35:26,167 --> 00:35:27,342
It's called Miranda rights,

743
00:35:27,386 --> 00:35:29,518
the right to remain silent.

744
00:35:29,562 --> 00:35:31,955
So, you are no longer
under arrest.

745
00:35:31,999 --> 00:35:33,827
I don't understand.

746
00:35:33,870 --> 00:35:35,239
I am the chief of police.
You're free to go.

747
00:35:35,263 --> 00:35:38,527
Go. They just have
to process you out.

748
00:35:43,532 --> 00:35:46,622
And then what?

749
00:35:48,015 --> 00:35:51,192
The money stopped a month ago
because you tried to leave.

750
00:35:51,236 --> 00:35:53,673
Am I right?

751
00:35:56,632 --> 00:35:57,938
He's a powerful man.

752
00:35:57,981 --> 00:36:00,201
Even the police obey him.

753
00:36:01,855 --> 00:36:04,814
I can tell by the way
he looks at my daughter,

754
00:36:04,858 --> 00:36:06,555
the way he touches her...

755
00:36:06,599 --> 00:36:07,774
Is that why you left?

756
00:36:07,817 --> 00:36:10,516
She's almost the same age I was.

757
00:36:10,559 --> 00:36:13,910
I know when she comes into her
time, he will do the same thing.

758
00:36:13,954 --> 00:36:16,391
Maria, it is possible

759
00:36:16,435 --> 00:36:18,785
that he already has.

760
00:36:22,267 --> 00:36:25,966
You don't owe him your place
in this country.

761
00:36:26,009 --> 00:36:28,142
You don't owe him your daughter.

762
00:36:28,186 --> 00:36:30,927
You don't owe him your silence.

763
00:36:31,928 --> 00:36:33,626
I know who did this to you,

764
00:36:33,669 --> 00:36:34,540
but I want you to be able

765
00:36:34,583 --> 00:36:36,585
to say his name.

766
00:36:56,953 --> 00:36:58,955
Turn around!
Put your hands behind your back!

767
00:37:00,566 --> 00:37:02,394
We got him.

768
00:37:02,437 --> 00:37:04,352
Suspect coming out.

769
00:37:23,806 --> 00:37:25,591
Mommy! Mommy!

770
00:37:25,634 --> 00:37:28,028
Mommy! Mommy!

771
00:37:29,464 --> 00:37:31,597
Hola.Hola.

772
00:37:43,696 --> 00:37:45,480
Thank you.

773
00:37:52,095 --> 00:37:54,359
I'm late. Walk with me.

774
00:37:54,402 --> 00:37:55,795
Okay.
Couple of things.

775
00:37:55,838 --> 00:37:57,362
Uh, Maria's now
in witness protection,

776
00:37:57,405 --> 00:37:59,973
since she's testifying against
a politically powerful man.

777
00:38:00,016 --> 00:38:01,888
Good.
Now ICE can't touch her.

778
00:38:01,931 --> 00:38:03,368
And then there's Reed.

779
00:38:03,411 --> 00:38:04,630
Should we suspend him?

780
00:38:04,673 --> 00:38:06,240
I don't know.
What do you think?

781
00:38:06,284 --> 00:38:07,807
He lives up in Santa Clarita.

782
00:38:07,850 --> 00:38:10,810
Transfer him to Harbor,
admin detail, nine-to-five.

783
00:38:10,853 --> 00:38:13,378
He'll have four hours a day
in rush hour to contemplate

784
00:38:13,421 --> 00:38:15,554
the privilege
of wearing the uniform.

785
00:38:17,469 --> 00:38:19,209
Go ahead.
Say it.

786
00:38:19,253 --> 00:38:20,689
What? I launched

787
00:38:20,733 --> 00:38:22,822
an investigation
into a friend of the mayor's.

788
00:38:22,865 --> 00:38:25,085
In my otherwise forgettable
30-year career,

789
00:38:25,128 --> 00:38:28,175
there have been six chiefs
of police, and I'm still here.

790
00:38:28,218 --> 00:38:30,656
Mostly 'cause I never
do anything like that.

791
00:38:30,699 --> 00:38:32,658
So you think it was dumb?

792
00:38:32,701 --> 00:38:35,661
No.
I get a kick out of it.

793
00:38:35,704 --> 00:38:38,446
Good first week, Chief.

794
00:38:48,761 --> 00:38:52,068
So, my topic tonight
is Title IX,

795
00:38:52,112 --> 00:38:55,376
which introduced
into American law

796
00:38:55,420 --> 00:38:57,944
the gender equality
so many of us

797
00:38:57,987 --> 00:38:59,815
have benefited from.

798
00:39:08,911 --> 00:39:11,740
Okay. You know what,
I'm gonna, uh...

799
00:39:14,439 --> 00:39:16,397
I'm a cop.

800
00:39:16,441 --> 00:39:18,834
Uh, I'm a woman.

801
00:39:20,009 --> 00:39:22,098
I am a gay woman.

802
00:39:23,186 --> 00:39:25,145
And...

803
00:39:25,188 --> 00:39:27,974
So, I'm gonna
put my speech over here.

804
00:39:28,017 --> 00:39:29,236
Uh...

805
00:39:30,759 --> 00:39:33,588
All right, so, let's
talk about how it feels

806
00:39:33,632 --> 00:39:35,851
to be not only

807
00:39:35,895 --> 00:39:38,941
the first female chief of police
in Los Angeles,

808
00:39:38,985 --> 00:39:42,162
but also how it feels
to be a gay woman

809
00:39:42,205 --> 00:39:45,731
in America in the year 2020

810
00:39:45,774 --> 00:39:48,386
who also happens to be
the chief of police.

811
00:40:00,441 --> 00:40:03,401
These were the calls we used
to get at the nurses' station.

812
00:40:03,444 --> 00:40:05,446
Oh, people are funny.

813
00:40:05,490 --> 00:40:07,230
You think that's funny?

814
00:40:07,274 --> 00:40:08,797
Don't you?

815
00:40:08,841 --> 00:40:12,322
That's when I decided
to go back to graduate school.

816
00:40:12,366 --> 00:40:15,238
I don't know why I ever
left graduate school.

817
00:40:17,415 --> 00:40:21,201
I'm gonna have my second glass
of wine in my pajamas.

818
00:40:21,244 --> 00:40:22,811
Interested?

819
00:40:24,857 --> 00:40:27,990
That's the nicest offer
I've had in a long time.

820
00:40:28,034 --> 00:40:30,079
Then take it.

821
00:40:30,123 --> 00:40:33,474
Mm. I'm just not very good
at this.

822
00:40:33,518 --> 00:40:34,867
It's not an exam.

823
00:40:34,910 --> 00:40:36,608
Well, the sad truth is

824
00:40:36,651 --> 00:40:38,479
I am at a point in my life

825
00:40:38,523 --> 00:40:41,961
where I'd rather have
the extra hour's sleep.

826
00:40:45,921 --> 00:40:48,010
It was really nice
meeting you, Tommy.

827
00:41:03,548 --> 00:41:05,898
My marriage is falling apart.

828
00:41:07,203 --> 00:41:09,467
What, did you have a fight?

829
00:41:11,991 --> 00:41:13,819
I want you to come stay with us.

830
00:41:15,864 --> 00:41:17,866
Are you sure?

831
00:41:23,698 --> 00:41:24,743
You never...

832
00:41:24,786 --> 00:41:26,005
Oh, it's okay.

833
00:41:26,048 --> 00:41:27,572
It's okay.

834
00:41:27,615 --> 00:41:30,444
It's okay.

835
00:41:32,577 --> 00:41:35,449
How can I forgive someone
I don't even know?

836
00:41:41,237 --> 00:41:43,239
Who I was...

837
00:41:44,327 --> 00:41:46,286
...I didn't know either.

838
00:41:47,722 --> 00:41:49,942
I didn't know who I was.

839
00:41:51,639 --> 00:41:55,121
I wish I could have saved you
and your father all that pain.

840
00:41:55,164 --> 00:41:57,166
Is that what love is?

841
00:41:59,517 --> 00:42:01,519
What?

842
00:42:03,085 --> 00:42:04,870
Like a wish,

843
00:42:04,913 --> 00:42:07,655
more than a real thing.

844
00:42:15,010 --> 00:42:17,012
Let me go pack.
