Rookie Blue s03e04 Episode Script

Girls' Night Out

I'm telling you, it's the eyes.
They're the windows to the soul.
Eyes can't lie.
You know they say that 60% of men look at your eyes first? Yeah, well, 60% of men are lying with their mouths.
It's all about lips, McNally Big, red lips.
It's primal.
It's kind of like a It's like a monkey's butt.
Oh, that's really nice.
That's very appealing.
Just trying to be honest.
You want to be honest, be honest.
Boobs.
All that other stuff is window dressing.
- The Detective speaks.
- Detective in training.
Not till tomorrow.
- What are you doing? - Nothing.
That's not for me.
That is not happening.
No.
I'm not going dancing.
Tomorrow's my first day.
I have to work in the morning.
- So do we.
- So what? She doesn't want to celebrate, that's her problem.
Come on.
You have worked your ass off to get this.
Look, it's Saturday night.
We're young, we have bras, and you have a promotion.
Okay? All right? We're not going out to try to pick up guys.
We're going out to take you for one drink.
- One drink one drink.
- Just one drink, just one drink.
- No, I can't! - Yes, you can! Fine.
One drink to shut you up.
Man, last night was crazy.
Yeah.
Those E.
T.
F.
guys sure know how to party, huh? No doubt.
I wish I'd known we were gonna have people over.
I would have invited Traci and Andy maybe even, you know, Gail.
Yeah, me, too.
Thing is, last night wasn't really my idea, you know? Sue and the E.
T.
F.
guys just wanted to take my mind off things.
Oh, okay.
Well, maybe next time.
Morning.
Don't do that.
I'll clean up after I get back from shift.
I got it.
All right, well, I gotta go.
See you guys later.
- Later.
- Bye.
You gonna go to your appointment today? I don't know.
I tried therapy when my brother died.
Talking doesn't really help.
Look, if going to see the shrink gets you back on the job faster, I say you do it And once you're back on the street, making a difference, you'll feel better.
Maybe.
Gonna see you after work? Yeah.
Go to that appointment.
- Thanks for the ride.
- No problem.
We're here.
I've never seen you guys like this before.
Why didn't you just call in sick? 'Cause Traci's first day.
She needs us.
Yeah, and I need a mint.
Rough night? Let's just say we kept the party going in your honor.
Looking good, Trace I mean, Detective.
I'm not there yet.
- How's Dov? - Oh, the same.
I can't figure out what to do to make him feel better.
Oh, it sucks that we can't help him out.
Why can't we just come over, cook some food, and rent some Batman movies? You know, I don't think he wants to hang out with us anyways.
Why not? We're fun.
Well, maybe he just needs a little time to himself, sort some things out.
Please.
Hey, you.
If you ever cared about me at all, you'd find me some coffee.
Let's go.
Call me, let me know what happens.
So? You ready to do this? Already helped C.
I.
B.
process three bodies.
Now I'm going over reports from last night, see if there's anything I should carry over.
Wow, way to work it.
Well, I just don't want people thinking I got this promotion because I'm sleeping with Jerry.
No one's gonna think that.
I would.
You gotta shake off that negativity.
Okay? Come out of the gate running.
You are Traci Nash, and you are here because you deserve to be here, and that's what everybody's gonna know.
Okay.
That's a good pep talk, coach.
- Got your back, Traci.
- All right.
All right.
Go break a leg.
Did you have a nice time with the girls last night? I'm not in the mood for you.
You know, it's a scientific fact that the oxygen above a bar top is the thinnest, so it's no wonder your head hurts.
- I got your texts.
- Oh, my God.
Now the really good stuff that started coming around 2:00 or 3:00.
No.
You you have to e Erase the evidence that the fun, carefree Gail I once knew still exists? Not a chance.
Nick, I'm actually not joking.
Okay, let's have a round of applause for Nash, who will be starting her 6-month rotation with the D's today.
Now I finally get what you saw in Jerry.
All right, it's Sunday morning.
Lots of people moving in and out of the city, so let's keep the roads moving, and we'll have a nice, quiet morning.
Car assignments are on the board.
I, of course, will be on desk duty.
Oh, what's the matter, Williams? Can't cut it on the street anymore? All right.
Okay.
Let's go.
Go.
Nash.
Do you know where Jerry is? Headquarters been calling him, voice mail what's going on? He got a new smartphone.
He can't figure out how it works.
Why are you wearing a sweater? It's, like, a million degrees in here.
Yeah, well, you'll have to pick up the case file for him, then.
So my first assignment is picking up Detective Barber's paperwork? Yeah, you make your bed, you lie in it even if your bed is a desk, and you hate it.
Just think of it as a display of gratitude for Jerry getting you this gig.
Epstein, what are you doing here? I gotta get back to work.
I mean, I'll I'll do anything I'll wash squad cars, I'll inventory the evidence room I can't bring you back until the police shrink clears you, and Dr.
Mansfield won't clear you unless you actually go to your appointments.
I went once.
It was stupid.
We both just sat there.
I don't need a shrink.
I gotta get back on the job.
Not till you're cleared.
You need to deal with what happened here.
I know what happened.
Kid had a gun.
He fired it at me.
I shot him.
Sorry, Epstein.
My hands are tied.
How's it going? Are you leaving without saying "hi" to your favorite training officer? Noelle's busy, so Nice.
Epstein, you haven't lost your sense of humor.
- Have a good shift.
- Oh, hold on, hold on.
- Come here.
How are you? - Good.
Okay, question when you got shot and you were off the job, what did you do? I, uh I I helped out with Izzy and Maddie's soccer teams, which mostly meant that I I brought the sliced oranges and I, uh, I cheered my head off.
Kind of reminded me that I'm not just a uniform and a gun and a badge, that I can help without chasing bad guys.
You're a good dad.
Your girls are lucky to have you.
Good morning, McNally.
You look absolutely ravishing.
Nash's first day, and you're going out there hungover.
Nice work.
Real rookie move.
Okay, I've been doing this job for two years now, I know exactly what I'm doing, and I'm not hungover.
You got sparkles in your hair.
Do not.
Stop.
You know, you could have come with us.
I had your skinny jeans and bandanna all picked out.
Not even if you make chief.
All right.
Let me do that.
Can I do it now? Let me do it.
You know what? You just you just can't turn it off, can you? You need to turn it on to get the coffee to come out.
I'm not talking about the machine.
I'm talking about you.
You're constantly a training officer.
You can't turn it off.
Are you calling me a control freak? How many times have you let a rookie drive, while you've been a training officer? Freak.
Come on.
You gotta let us fumble around, you know, figure it out for ourselves.
That's how we learn.
Exhibit "A".
See you on the road, McNally.
Feels pretty good getting behind the wheel.
That, uh, blue Sedan just drove by what was the marker? Alpha-yankee-yankee-foxtrot-6-7-niner.
Driver was a clean-shaven, fighting-age male.
Currently 50 meters to your 6:00.
Army hotshot.
I'm just used to keeping my eyes open.
Well, let's keep our eyes open and our mouths shut.
We've got a 9-1-1 call for a 2-car MVA on Villiers, east of Cherry.
Dispatch, this is Shaw.
Can we get some units to lock up the street? - 1522,can you attend? - 10-4.
On our way.
Do you need any more cars there? people at least, in need of medical attention.
- Copy.
- Is anybody hurt? - Ems is en route - Did we order girl strippers? - Perfect.
- Come here.
You need to tell me what happened, okay? Okay.
We were driving, and then blamo! Yeah, your mom must be real proud.
You've gotta be more specific.
Stand up.
The car was parked on the shoulder, and we hit it.
All right.
Who was driving? - Yeah - okay.
- I'm gonna check the other car.
- Okay.
You all right? All right, look at me.
Right over here.
No, don't look at her.
Look at me.
- Shaw.
- What? What's the sitrep? Rookie speaks G.
I.
Joe.
I'm trying to translate.
Well, these enchanting beings hit that car, pushed it onto the train tracks.
I'm getting married in seven hours.
Good for you.
Look at me.
Better call the D's.
Looks like Traci just got her first case.
That's okay.
Call everyone.
Tell 'em to meet you here.
So I heard the action on the way over.
Do we know who was driving? Well, Detective, these three are playing "I am Spartacus.
" Each one of them say that they were driving, so we can't arrest any of them.
Where's the body? - Over there? - Okay.
All right.
Take it from the top.
Got here as fast as I could.
- Hey, where's Jerry? - Left him a message.
Should be on his way over.
All right.
Well, until then Welcome to your crime scene.
Where do we start? Okay.
Okay, it looks like the victim has a large laceration a large laceration in his forehead consistent with blood spatter on the windshield.
No seat belt.
There's no s Looks like he, uh, hit his head, probably died instantly.
So what's the charge? Impaired operation causing death.
That's if we can figure out who was driving the car that hit him.
Yeah.
Excuse me, who's in charge here? Uh, I am.
Officer Nash.
I'm Ken White.
I'm with the city transportation office.
Look, folks, we got trains backed up all the way to Burlington and Ajax.
Well, you want to tell that to this guy? Okay, well, the whole region is at a standstill because of this one car.
Can't you just move it? Not until I get the go-ahead from Detective Barber.
Wait.
You just told me that you were in charge.
Uh, Sarge, you got a second? Okay, Nash.
If you're comfortable making the call, go for it.
Ten minutes.
Give 'em ten more minutes, please.
They're blocking major arteries all across the G.
T.
A.
! What's up, Trace? Well, traffic recon team is done, and I mean, it looks like I.
D.
E.
N.
T.
has what they need.
Look, it's not just a matter of of traffic.
It's a matter of public safety.
What if an ambulance were to get stalled on its way to a call b Enough! We get it.
Okay.
Nash.
What's it gonna be? Move the car.
Okay.
All right.
On three? One, two, three.
The girl with the green dress was in the back.
The lady with that "bride" thing across her chest she was driving.
I saw her get out of the driver's seat.
So the bride was driving.
You sure? 'Course I'm sure.
I'm an ironman.
I'm in peak mental and physical condition.
Get the hell off the bike.
All right.
I'm gonna tell Oliver.
Sadly, this heartwarming display of sisterhood has come to an end.
We have an eyewitness.
Get up.
Angela Kehoe you're under arrest for impaired operation causing death.
"Death"? What are you talking about? "What am I talking about"? There's a dead man in that "parked car" that you hit.
The car wasn't even Don't.
I will hit a girl.
Nash.
Okay, so here's your driver.
And what about these two? Oh, those are your parting gifts for assaulting an officer, both of them.
All right, well, get everyone back to the station, and give the driver a breathalyzer test.
Rookie's all growed up.
John, 1408 find out where they are, will you? Harry? You're the cop who shot my brother.
We don't need your charity.
I just wanted to I don't care what you want.
Okay.
Look, I'm sorry, I'm sorry You don't get to use this to make yourself feel better.
Okay, then please just tell me what I can do.
I'll do anything.
Just please.
Fine.
I need a ride.
Make sure that's when we Who said this car could be moved? I did, but I checked with I.
D.
E.
N.
T.
I checked with traffic recon.
They all got what they needed before the car was moved.
What about the coroner? Or did you get your medical degree while I wasn't looking? No, of course not, but I Frank.
Frank.
I ordered Nash to move the car.
Where the hell have you been? I've been calling you all morning.
It's my new phone.
Uh, I don't well, I don't really know what it is.
It's just it's not, uh, it's not receiving calls.
This case better be as solid as you think it is, or heads will roll Your head, Detective Barber.
You didn't have to do that.
No, y y yeah, I did.
I should have been here.
- It's gonna be okay.
- Detective Barber.
How's it going, Tedd? I'm just peachy, Jerry.
Thanks for asking.
You two, however you've had better days.
Really? Why's that? See this? Have a look.
Intercostal laceration.
- Kind of looks like a knife wound.
- Yeah, it does.
Mm, yeah, I can't be certain, but, uh, I'd bet my nine iron on it.
He was stabbed? Yeah, and long dead by the time those women hit him.
So I compromised the scene of a homicide? Yeah.
Like I said, you've had better days.
- No.
- Come on.
Traci, you need to stay as far away from this investigation as possible.
This is my mess.
I need to fix it.
No, I'm not gonna let you get yanked off your detective rotation because of something I should have been on top of.
Hey, the victim's named Jesse Salenko, um, he's 28 years old, and priors include possession with the intent to traffic.
Okay.
Uh, Sammy, can you take Collins and give notification? You got a next of kin? Yeah, his brother Paul.
Uh, no record, but same address.
All right, um the rest of you, process the bride and release her friends.
I'm gonna talk to the drug squad and see if they got any more information on our victim.
- Jerry.
- No.
If she knows what's good for her, she'll back off.
It was just a rookie mistake.
Yeah, and I let her make it.
Uh, death notifications are, uh complicated, so just follow my lead, you know? - Hello? - Mr.
Salenko? Yeah? Who's this? Uh, this is Officer Sam Swarek.
Can my partner and I come up and talk to you for a few minutes? Yeah, sure.
You're gonna love this part of the job.
- Paul Salenko? - Yeah.
Can we step inside for a minute? Why? What do you want? Sir, please? So is this about my brother? Mr.
Salenko, I'm very sorry to tell you this, but your brother is dead.
W what do you mean? What what happened to Jesse? We've just started the investigation, and we'll let you know as soon as we can, okay? Did someone hurt him? Please just tell me the truth.
- It looks that way, yeah.
- Oh, jeez.
You're all right.
I got you.
I think I'm gonna be sick.
Hey, just breathe in through your mouth, out through your nose.
Okay? That'll help with your stomach.
Please.
You have to let her go.
Her wedding is in, like, four hours.
Yeah, well, maybe you should have thought about that before you went out and got hammered.
It was her brilliant idea.
Yeah, and if we had it your way, we would have gone to the ballet and been in bed by 10:00.
Yes, and been properly rested for the wedding.
Oh, and also? Not in jail.
Is it weird that I find the sound of their bickering comforting? Like waves lapping against the shore.
Sounds like dinner at your ma's house.
I'd like to call my brother Cole.
He's the groom and a lawyer.
Okay.
Here you go.
Where'd you get that? Uh, club 191,the after-hours bar we were at.
- Where are we headed? - Just drive.
I'm I'm I'm happy to take you anywhere you need to go.
I just I have an appoint I want you to tell me what happened the day you killed my brother, and it'll be easier if you drive while we talk.
That way, we don't have to look at each other.
The bridal party was at the exact same after-hours club as the victim.
Okay, didn't Jerry tell you to back off? New plan we keep the girls here a little longer, and then we interview them as potential witnesses.
They remember Jesse Salenko from the club, then maybe they'll remember something to help us catch his killer.
Um, shouldn't we just take this one on the chin and, you know, catch 'em next time? No, because half the division thinks I only got this promotion 'cause I'm sleeping with Jerry.
Yeah, and I got her into this mess because I went all Tony Robbins on her.
Wait, you want us to get fired so you can keep your promotion? Gail, I have worked harder than you have in your entire life to get here, so you're gonna help me stay here.
- That's not a request.
Yes, ma'am.
Where do you want us to go? Andy and I take the bride.
You two take the harpies.
- Okay.
- Okay.
I needed some fresh air, so I went out back.
There was a guy out there, he told me his name was Jesse and asked me if I wanted to party, I said "no" and I went back inside.
Was that the only contact you had with the victim? Yes.
Did Jesse seem agitated or scared like someone was after him? No.
He was having a good time.
He kept buying Angie and me drinks.
What about you? Brooke was too much of a snob to even give him the time of day.
Well, now that we know he was a drug dealer, I'd say my judgment is pretty good.
Congratulations on your judgment.
Congratulations on being a whore.
That's enough.
Stop! Go to your corner.
What's that on your shoulder? Looks like a seat belt burn, Officer Diaz.
Consistent with someone who was in the driver's seat when the accident happened.
So our ironman was wrong.
Well, he said he read "bride" on the driver's sash.
Maybe he stopped reading before he got to the "maid" part.
I think you'd better call that lawyer.
Come on.
Let's go.
Come on.
What's wrong with you? You take your best girlfriend clubbing the night before her wedding, you let her get in a car with a drunk driver, and then you let her take the rap for a crime that she didn't even commit.
That's nice work.
I don't even remember getting in the car.
I was completely out of it by then.
I don't think you get how this whole maid of honor thing works.
I mean, the bride is supposed to get wasted while you look after her.
I wanted to talk to Angie last night, but I didn't have the nerve, so I drank a lot.
Let me guess.
You slept with her fiancée? I think she's making a mistake, marrying Cole.
I wanted to tell her that before it was too late, but then she took off with that Jesse guy.
Does that sound like someone who should be getting married? Your maid of honor just told my colleague something very interesting.
She said that you were with the victim for most of the night.
I don't know why she'd say that.
Angela.
Okay, yes, we talked.
We did a rail together and then this other guy showed up, totally freaked out, and said he needed to talk to Jesse.
Talk about what? I don't know he dragged Jesse off towards the parking lot, and that was the last that I saw of either of them.
Well, did you catch the other guy's name? I assumed it was Jesse's brother because Jesse kept calling him "little bro.
" Like, "relax, little bro.
" "I'll deal with it, little bro.
" Let's get a sketch artist in here, and if the guy Angela saw is a match for the victim's little brother, bring him in.
Feel like solving a murder on your first shift? Well, we'll sit on Paul Salenko until you send the composite sketch.
Thanks.
We got a possible suspect for our homicide, and it's the victim's brother.
Imagine that.
Guy was so broken up, I never would have guessed he was involved.
Yeah, well, you got a lot to learn.
Okay, so theories what do you got? Uh, well, usual motives are love and money, so maybe Paul killed his brother 'cause they were in love with the same girl.
Right, well, our victim's got a rap sheet for cocaine possession and trafficking.
Okay.
Okay.
So he was an entrepreneur.
Maybe his little brother wanted in on the business.
Think that's better.
Tell me again from the beginning.
Yeah, I I I already told you I Not the version I read in the police report.
The truth.
Your brother was behind the counter.
I thought he worked there, but something was off.
I asked him to step out behind the counter and show me his hands, but he didn't.
He ducked, and when he stood back up he had a gun.
Why did you go into the store? I needed licorice.
I know it sounds stupid, but that's the truth.
- Did he die right away? - What? When the bullet from your gun put a hole in my brother's chest, did he die right away? Your brother was bleeding out, but he was still breathing.
I tried to keep him alive until the medics got there.
How hard did you try? I don't want to talk about this anymore.
You're gonna tell me what I want to know.
That's how this works.
Your brother had a gun.
He shot at me.
I had no choice but to shoot him.
You don't know anything about my brother.
I know I was having a perfectly good life until he came along.
All he had to do was show me his hands.
I'm sorry.
First the bride was driving.
Now the bridesmaid's driving.
Next, it'll be the bride's third cousin with the wonky eye.
Hey, you been getting any photos by accident from Jerry? He's been sending 'em to all of us since he got that new phone.
Last week, he sent me one where he's in shorts.
It was awkward.
Chris, when we were together, was I inconsistent? W what do you mean? Hot one minute, then cold the next? Uh, yeah, you know? A little, maybe, but hey, that was half the fun of dating you, you know? Always kept me on my toes.
I think I'm a sociopath.
Gail, you're not a sociopath.
Well, then why can't I express myself in a way that is not dripping with sarcasm or contempt unless I'm drunk, apparently? Okay, you got a hard shell, but you know, once you crack it Don't say "ooey gooey center.
" That's really gross.
It's not a bad quality.
It's just who you are, and it was worth it to be with you.
You are such a sap.
Thank you.
McNally sent the police sketch.
It's Paul Salenko.
Yep.
He fooled us once.
This time, we're bringing him in no matter what.
Police! - Clearing upstairs.
- Copy that.
Police! I didn't take it.
I don't have it! - Okay, okay.
- Swarek! He's out back and he's got company.
Just let me go, man.
I didn't take your money, man.
Lt wasn't me.
- It wasn't me! - Get in the car! Police! Stop the car now! Holster that weapon! Collins! Holster that weapon! - I can shoot the tire out! - Yeah.
Put it away! Do you know what happens if you shoot out the tire of a car going that fast? Huh? Tags are from New York state.
Alpha-Oscar-Charlie-8-9-6-3.
Least you did something right.
Nine times out of ten, I make that shot.
Is that right? You just missed twice.
If you hadn't chased after him in the first place, we'd be tailing him in our car instead of shooting off rounds in the street.
Jerry, it's Sam.
We just lost Salenko.
Drug trafficker from Rochester.
Our murder victim, Jesse Salenko, and his younger brother, work for this guy, running cocaine across the border.
Drug squad found out that they didn't pay up after the shipment.
They owed him 50 grand.
So what, he comes to collect, they don't pay, and then this Jesse kid gets a knife in the ribs? And then they grab his kid brother right out from under us.
Okay, so if we find the kid within the next hour, we got Bobas.
If not, we're gonna be fishing the kid out of Ashbridges Bay Bobas is long gone.
All right.
Well, let's get 'em.
I will go back to the desk.
All right.
Call Guns & Gangs.
Get local addresses for known associates.
Yeah, I'll get Nash to call border services in case they head to New York.
Very good.
- What can I do? - Okay I will prosecute this entire division if my fiancée is not released immediately.
I can make the call.
I'm an attorney with Shephard & Blake.
And I am an officer with calm your ass down.
So you lower voice and you speak to me like I'm a human being.
My fiancée is being unduly detained despite the fact that she has already provided witness testimony.
What's he talking about? I need to hold on to the bride a little longer.
No, no.
I can't deal with this right now.
Just make him go away.
Just Jerry, just give me ten more minutes.
I have a feeling the bride's still hiding something, so if I can get her to t Okay, unless she's hiding Paul Salenko in her purse, I need you to put those feelings aside and just release her, please.
Is there somebody here who actually knows what the law says? Trace.
Bride's breathalyzer test results.
Um, there were drugs in the car, so we gave her a drug test, too.
Test came back negative? Yeah, I mean, must have belonged to one of the other girls.
But she told us that she was doing cocaine with the victim behind the club.
Okay, but why would she lie to a police officer about taking illegal drugs, if she was clean? Okay, c just can you help Noelle with the with the groom? I'm just gonna take another crack at Angela.
All right.
What about Jerry? Screw Jerry.
Test says you weren't on any drugs last night.
What were you doing behind the club with Jesse? I don't know what you're talking about.
Angela I'm trying to solve a murder.
You're one of the last people who had contact with the victim.
Just tell me what happened.
Jesse bought me a few drinks.
He was cute and funny, and he could tell I was stressed out, so he Asked me if I wanted to go back to his place and blow off some steam.
So you did? You didn't? - Did you go back with him? - I was going to.
Yeah, I thought, "what's one little transgression before a lifetime of commitment?" Uh, but then his brother showed up, and they both disappeared.
Cole wanted to get married so badly, and I didn't want him to think that I wasn't ready, and I thought that if I pretended long enough, it would start to feel real.
Yeah, fake it till you make it.
Trust me, I've been there.
I'm sorry I can't help you.
We've searched his car, we've talked to his known associates, we've Checked his apartment on Dundas, and all of our leads are coming up empty, so If you can think of anything else Jesse didn't live on Dundas.
He lived at 418 Hastings.
He texted me his address so I could meet up with him later.
Hello? Hello yeah, I hate this phone.
Jesse Salenko has a loft at queen and Hastings.
I thought he lived with his brother.
He does.
Okay, yeah, that's worth a shot.
Collins.
- Perimeter.
- But this is the part I'm good at.
Guys, you ready? Stay close.
- Nash, we're good.
- Take down.
Police! Don't move! Don't move! Get down! Do not move! Stop struggling, it'll stop hurting.
Thanks.
This is McNally.
The room is secure.
Come on.
Let's go.
Found it under the bottom dresser drawer.
It's where I used to keep my contraband at the base.
No, no, that's Nash's win.
See them put you back in uniform after this.
Jesse the victim he wanted to sell the shipment at a markup, pay Bobas back his money, and keep the difference.
So how'd he end up with a knife in his ribs? Well, Bobas showed up at their loft, demanding his money, and Jesse wasn't there, so his little brother went to the club to warn him Bobas must have followed him.
He found Jesse in the car, and he stabbed him.
Anything else? Well, you know, according to his little brother, Jesse didn't want to be a runner his whole life.
He wanted respect, he wanted people to take him seriously, and He got too big too fast.
So I got in contact with the Rochester P.
D.
, and they will be shutting down Bobas' operation in the morning.
Well done.
You, too.
Stick with this guy, you'll be permanent, no time.
Thank you, sir.
I'm so glad we can still be friends, you know, after everything.
Me, too.
So I'll meet you in the parking lot? Actually, I'm probably gonna go straight home.
I'll just catch a ride with someone else.
- You're not coming to The Penny? - No way.
Well, we're celebrating Traci's first day.
I mean, drinks are on Andy.
- What the hell was - Did you feel that? Because that's how my head feels after last night.
I'm going home.
And by the way, I may or may not have puked in the backseat of your car on the ride in this morning.
- What? - Still friends? You and me? To the end of time? Hey, Trace, let me do that.
Don't.
We're partners, right? So your mess is my mess.
Yeah.
That's why I took the hit with Frank.
You also gave up on me today.
I made a mistake and I needed you to let me fix it, not dismiss me.
Trace, I I don't want you taking a fall for making a decision that wasn't yours in the first place.
- I can handle myself.
- Yeah, absolutely.

Trace, you are a dynamite detective.
Look, I'm, uh I haven't been handling things well And I'm sorry.
Okay? I love having you as a partner.
Hey, honey? How was your day? I almost pepper-sprayed a lawyer in a tuxedo.
All right.
See? That's all the more reason to be back on the beat with us.
I can't.
Look, just talk to Frank, okay? He'll be powerless against those dimples.
I'm pregnant.
I'm giving you all those cracks, razzing you about not being able to hack it on the street.
Yeah.
Thank you.
That is the best news come here ever.
Aw, man! So? You working on names? Ollie? Ollie Williams? Oliver Williams? It's a name of power.
Actually, the baby's gonna have Frank's last name.
That son of a bitch.
- Let me buy you a drink.
- Yes.
Yes, do.
Have fun babysitting? He's not the worst rookie I've ever had.
Watch it.
Sometimes, uh I hold on a little tight because I don't want you guys to get hurt or screw up.
I don't know.
Traci messed up.
You know? The world didn't end.
She's gonna make a hell of a detective.
