NOLAN: All right. Now turn right.
[BEEP, CAMERA SHUTTER CLICKS]
Are you sure you were born in March?
Oh, I think she knows what month
she was born in.
[SLURRING] Who are you, little one?
Are you here of your own free will,
or are you a droid locked in servitude?
She doesn't even know
what planet she's on.
Okay, that's fair.
But the state of California
did require her to show
her birth certificate
when she got that driver's license.
Yeah, yeah. I'm just saying
You know, Pisces are normally
way too gentle
to go on a drunken vandalism spree.
There's nothing normal about
the people we interact with.
You are destined for more
than this, little one.
Do you want to know a secret?
I'm not really Danielle Vonderclomp.
My parents adopted me
from a Lithuanian orphanage
when I was 2.
My history, shrouded in darkness.
I believe that I am secretly a princess
destined to go back home
one day to rule.
Okay, I'm sorry.
Your Highness, are you saying your
parents just made up a birthday for you?
Well, duh.
Don't.
- I told you so.
- Please don't.
- She's a Leo, for sure.
- I said don't.
Have you seen my hair tie?
Nightstand.
[SCOFFS] I swear I looked here.
[SIGHS] So, today's the day?
It is. And?
And great.
You think I'm going
back to work too soon?
I voiced my opinion,
and I respect your decision.
Right. It's just that
Well, technically, you were dead.
I mean, you were gone,
and they brought you back.
I just think maybe it might
take you more than a week
to get past that.
Yeah, but it's not like
that's the first time.
Sure, but Whoa, wait. What?
You've been dead before?
LOPEZ: I knew this was a bad idea.
We should've used a service
to cover Justine's vacation.
Your mom just wants
to spend more time with Jack.
Why hire a temp nanny
when he's got family?
Because a nanny would be on time.
[SIGHS] I have to go.
Can you stay until she shows?
Yeah. Go.
[GASPS]
Mami!
Huh?
Call 911!
We should let Marshall
pick every restaurant
for all the sergeant's meetings.
Did you try that breakfast sandwich?
No. Ashley's got me on
this Whole30 thing.
No bread.
Oh, you're missing out. Hey, Smitty.
Yeah, Sarge?
You can't park your
personal vehicle in spots
designated for marked units.
The RV isn't my vehicle, it's my house.
#VanLife.
You can't park your house
in marked spots either.

Any chance he retires soon?
You aren't that lucky.
[INDISTINCT PAGE OVER INTERCOM]
DR. GREEN: Okay.
She needs a couple stitches,
and I'd like to admit her,
get a CAT scan to make sure
nothing more serious presents.
Of course.
Thank you, Doctor.
Are you single?
- Mom!
- Because I have four sons.
One's a priest,
but the others could use
a successful, young,
beautiful woman like yourself.
That's sweet, but I'm engaged.
Oh, congratulations.
You let me know if it doesn't work out.
Sure thing. [CHUCKLES]
Mom.
- I need you to tell me what happened.
- I'm fine.
- Where's my grandbaby?
- At home with Wesley.
Well, let's go see them.
The doctors are overreacting.
You're not leaving until they clear you.
I once worked an eight-hour
shift with a broken wrist.
Last time I heard that story,
it was a six-hour shift with a sprain.
Point is, I'm tougher than I look.
I know how tough you are,
but I need you to tell me what happened.
Nothing.
I don't want to freak you out.
I'm a cop. Nothing
freaks me out. [SIGHS]
I was on my way to see you
when a big man grabbed me.
I whacked him with my purse.
He threw me down.
What aren't you telling me?
Nothing.
- I'm sure it's a misunderstanding.
- Mom.
"Tell your son he's out of time."
Out of time for what?
I don't know. That's all he said.
- Which son?
- I don't know!
It has to be a misunderstanding.
Your brothers are all such good boys.
My brothers used to
stuff me in a pillowcase
and drag me around the neighborhood.
And look how tough it made you.
They did you a favor.
What's with all these diets
Ashley has you on?
Her dad's having heart trouble.
[GLASS SHATTERS, ALARM BLARING]
Burglary. 10:00.
[TIRES SCREECH]
Control, 7-Adam-100,
we got a burglary in progress.

I guess I'm just some Play-Doh ♪
AARON: Hey! Show me your hands!
Foot pursuit. White adult male.
Black hoodie, jeans, headed south.
You told me I was pretty, but
that you could never touch me ♪
'Cause to touch me would mean
you would have to feel ♪
Get off of me!
Aah! Oh!
It's okay. I got it, I got it.
- Are you all right?
- Yeah. Yeah, I'm fine.
Just, uh, tweaked my back
on the takedown.
[HANDCUFFS CLICK]
Oh! [GROANS]
- You're not fine. You're in agony.
- Oh!
We're taking you to the hospital.
[GROANING]
[SIREN WAILING]
[TIRES SCREECH]
What happened?
He must have been going at least 70.
Lost control, hit a couple
parked cars, flipped.
Several deep lacerations.
Possible internal bleeding.
Uh, don't move.
GREG: It's stuck again.
Here. I'll pinch.
You lift.
[GURNEY CREAKS] Got it.
three, up!
All right.
Headed to Saint Stephen.
All right.
And what do we do next?
We, uh, wait for backup
to secure the scene,
- then head to the hospital.
- Why?
Well, a death investigation
triggers different protocols.
We go with the victim in case he dies.
Nicely done.
HARPER: How's your mom?
Okay, I think.
She keeps going on about
how it was a misunderstanding.
Uh, you think one of
your brothers is in trouble?
It wouldn't be the first time.
If one of them is a reason
for Mom's attack,
I will rain down hell's own fury.
Okay. So, technically,
this can't be your case.
I know. It's your case.
I'm not even here.
Good, because it's
a major conflict of interest
for you to investigate
your own brothers.
I know. Plus, if I do it,
I might end up killing one of them.
Huh.
And here they come now.
That's Damian, my oldest brother.
Also known as Father Lopez or Father D.
Amen to that.
He started a nonprofit teaching
job skills to former gang members,
so he's got just as many friends
as he does enemies.
And that's Benjamin "Benny" Lopez.
Second oldest.
He was Gordon Gekko for
Halloween from the time he was 3.
When he was 12,
he opened an investment account
using lawnmower earnings and
our abuelita's Social Security number.
Her portfolio is better than mine.
And that's Cruz. Middle child.
In and out of rehab since he was 18.
Just can't seem to get it together.
When I became a cop, my mom made
me promise to never arrest him.
I thought you had four brothers.
Bruno's the youngest,
but he's been in New York since college.
I really don't think he's involved.
Angela, what's going on?
Mom's in the hospital.
- She okay?
- Wait. What happened?
Well, why didn't you have us meet there?
Your mother was attacked this morning
on her way to Angela's house.
She suffered a blow to the head.
The doctors are running some tests.
Who would attack Mom?
Hold on. Is that why we're here?
What, you think it's our fault?
The assailant said, "Tell your
son he's running out of time."
So, yeah, I think one of you
is at fault,
and no one's leaving
until I get answers.
All right, if one of you
wants to make this easy
and just confess, that would be awesome.
All right, then. Hard way it is.
Come on.
Really?

What is this?

- Our patient must've attacked him.
- Why?
I found a gunshot wound
when I was cleaning him up.
He would know the hospital
would have to report
that gunshot to the police.
He's gone inside the hospital.
We need to lock it down now.
[INDISTINCT ANNOUNCEMENTS OVER INTERCOM]
Security guard.
Hi. John Nolan.
Jasper Lee. Hospital's locked down.
All incoming calls are being rerouted.
Okay, we're gonna have to
post up at all the exits,
check everyone's I.D. before they leave.
Does that mean you've got
an I.D. on this guy?
Rob Lukasey.
He left his wallet in the car.
A laundry list of priors.
Uh, Celina, can you get
him a photo to distribute?
Will do.
He's in bad shape.
His first priority will be
patching himself up.
Well, we can put extra security
on the pharmacy and storage rooms.
But the truth is,
there's medical supplies
everywhere in here.
I got more officers coming to help,
but I'm sure I don't have to tell
you what a big job this is gonna be.
8 floors, 600 beds, 34 operating rooms.
In our simulations, a thorough search
takes five hours.
- Hmm.
- Well, let's get to it. Let's do it.
CELINA: Okay.
TIM: Agh. Nolan. [GRUNTS]
You all right?
Yeah, uh, fine.
What What's the lockdown status?
Uh, we got, uh, everything
checked off the list, but
No, call Grey and tell him
Tim is not here as a supervisor.
He's here as a patient.
- I told you, I'm fine. Agh!
- Oh, my God.
Ohh, okay.
Okay, I'm not fine.
Get me a doctor.
"Tell your son he's out of time."
Any idea what that means?
No. No. If I did, I would tell you.
Ask him about his record.
I was getting to that.
So, you got a couple arrests
for public intoxication
- and multiple DUIs.
- Ancient history.
I've been sober for one year
and 47 days today.
[DOOR OPENS]
Whoa. What are you doing here?
I'm representing my client.
What?
Hey, Ange.
You're not even a
defense attorney anymore.
Look, I know.
This is my chance to get one
of your brothers to like me.
They're never gonna like you.
Objection Argumentative.
Your mother-in-law is
in the hospital right now
- because of him.
- Objection speculation.
All right. Enough.
- You, sit down.
- Yeah.
You, go back inside.
All right.
♪♪
That was dope. Yeah.
Can we get back on track?
- Mm-hmm.
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Look, I've been trying to tell you,
that last DUI was the best thing
to happen to me.
I've been clean and sober ever since.
I understand you work with
a lot of ex-cons.
Guilt by association. Really, Detective?
[CHUCKLES] It's all right.
My mission is to help people
get out of the gang life.
What if one of the gangs
got tired of you interfering
and decided to send a message?
By attacking my mother?
No.
The people that I work with,
they might not always agree with me,
but they respect the collar.
Even if they didn't,
they know my sister's a cop.
So if it's not because of you,
which brother do you think
I should be focused on?
Cruz, Clearly. [CELLPHONE CHIMES]
Uh, sorry.

I know you're not Catholic.

Protestant?
I don't know. Is that even an option?
No.
Oh.
- I'm gonna go with Episcopalian.
- Sure.
Look, I get it. Your line of work,
there is a lot of money at stake.
Might drive a person to violence.
The guys I work with, they're not
gonna beat up someone's mom.
That's too kind.
They'll just sue you to death.
[CELLPHONE CHIMES]
- Can I just answer that one
- Mnh-mnh.
Ask him about his credit report.
I was getting to that.
So, we ran your credit report,
and we saw that
you took out a $15,000 loan.
You wanna tell us about that?
You don't have to answer that.
Yes, he does.
The loan is for college classes.
I'm getting my bachelor's in accounting.
I didn't want to say anything in case
I couldn't hack it
because I know what you think of me.
And I know I screwed up a lot.
I know you have no reason to trust me.
But whatever's going on, it's not me.
[INDISTINCT CONVERSATIONS]
MAN: [OVER RADIO] Clear on floor two.
Floor three clear. Heading to four.
Okay. Thank you.
Well, our suspect
killed a woman this morning.
Home invasion in West Hollywood.
The victim's husband
managed to get the gun
away from the suspect
and shoot him as he escaped.
Okay, so he's looking at
life in prison if we catch him.
When we catch him.
God, I hate hospitals.
Doesn't everyone?
Yeah, I guess.
Hey. How's your partner?
Shattered cheekbone.
Plastic surgeon's on his way in.
You're going back to work?
- I'll wait until he's out of surgery.
- Right.
I just found out this morning
Bailey has been dead more than once.
I know.
I felt it when I first met her.
One had something to do with,
uh, flying?
Wow. Yeah.
A-A-A halo jump went sideways.
♪♪
This is Nolan, fourth floor west.
We just found
the suspect's bloody clothes.
Looks like he tried to patch
himself up best he could.
Right, and then changed
into some scrubs.
He'll still need an I.D.
in order to exit the building.
Well, if he can break into a house,
he can steal a staff I.D.
I'll run down all the gang members
who work for Father Lopez.
Cruz agreed to a drug test,
so we should have those results
in a couple hours.
For the first time in his life,
I actually think he's innocent.
I've always been so hard on him.
Maybe if I had been more supportive,
- he would have gotten clean sooner.
- You know better.
Addicts only get clean
when they are ready.
[DOOR OPENS]
Oh. There you are.
Uh, you okay?
- You're looking a little shiny.
- Yeah.
Yeah, I'm I'm fine.
I just feel a little warm.
Look, I thought you should know,
hospital's locked down
while they search
for a homicide suspect.
I'm heading over to supervise.
There's a killer in the hospital
with my mother?
Relax. She's fine.
I assigned Thorsen to watch her door.
- Hi, ma'am. I'm Officer Aaron Thorsen.
- Hm?
I've been assigned to keep you safe,
and I just want to let you know
that there's nothing to worry about.
You are handsome.
Thank you.
Do you have any sisters?
- No, I'm an only child.
- Cousins?
My second eldest son, Benny,
he is successful, sweet,
- goes to church on Sundays.
- Mm.
But he needs a woman
to settle down with.
Are you asking me to set up one
of my cousins with your son?
And in return, I will set you up
with my niece, Isabella.
She's a professional dancer.
- You got a picture?
- Mm-hmm.
Oh, yeah. Mm-hmm. [LAUGHS]
It's probably just a muscle spasm.
You didn't have to clock out.
Of course I did.
Oh, hey. I'm just
searching for bad guys.
All clear here.
Wait, so Nolan's leaving
someone on every floor?
Yes. We've been cops
for more than 10 seconds.
We can handle this.
Hey, Doc, what's the word?
When we took that bullet out
a few years back,
there was a-a fragment that was
too complicated to remove.
- I remember.
- Bullet?
I was shot. It wasn't a big deal.
I saved his life first day on the job.
It was a huge deal.
Back to the fragment.
The pain you're experiencing
is because the fragment
has migrated closer
to your spinal column
and is pressing up against a nerve.
We'll need to do surgery to remove it.
Okay. Uh, when?
Well, I mean, hold on.
Wh-What are the risks?
Well, we are talking about
the spine, so
yes, it's risky.
But it's laparoscopic.
So if all goes well,
he'll be home by dinner.
If?
I know it's scary,
but leaving the fragment
in place is much riskier.
Well, then we do surgery.
Thank you.
Uh
I'm gonna get back to the search.
South wing is clear. Headed to north.
[ELEVATOR BELL DINGS]
Sir. Are you?
Oh, my Oh!
I I need help over here!
Ah, good thing I was
on the Whole30 diet.
That food poisoning is no joke.

Marshall can never pick
the breakfast place again.
Never.
[GROANS] Oh, no.
This is kind of fun.
It's like a sleepover.
[GROANS] Oh, God.
Should I call the nurse?
No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
You need to get back
to the station immediately.
What? Why?
Because if we're both
out of commission
Based on seniority

- Go.
- Yeah.
Hey, man. All right, bro.

Smitty. Smitty!
Hey! Wha What's going on?
Acting Sergeant Smitty.
Right. Why is Casey Curtis
leaving the station?
End of shift time off.
When you're in charge,
you can let all your friends
go home early.
But we're short today.
You know how many units are attached
to the hospital event, right?
Self-care is important.
Smitty [TIRES SCREECH]
[CAR BASS THUMPING]
- Get out!
- All right!
LUCY: What the hell is going on?
We caught the guy who beat up
Father Lopez's mother.
We heard what happened
to your mom and wanted to help.
So you abducted a man?
It was a citizen's arrest.
On what evidence?
He's been talkin' smack about
Father Lopez for weeks!
The whole hood heard him.
He's lucky that's all I did.
Hypocrite's sleeping with my wife.
With me, now.
[CELL DOOR SLAMS]
You're sleeping with his wife?
You're a priest.
I know.
I know.
Been struggling with my vows recently.
Are you kidding me?
Jumping to adultery
is more than just struggling.
We all fall short of the glory of God.
But I really don't think Carmody
had anything to do with Mom.
[SIGHS]
I have to look into it.
You never know
what people are capable of.
I didn't know you were capable of this.
[BUZZER SOUNDS]
ASHLEY: You know, with your injury,
you could retire right now
if you wanted.
She's right.
Are you trying to get rid of me?
It's not a crazy idea.
My dad waited too long to call it quits.
He can't do any of
the things he planned on.
It's a good deal.
Disability pay is the average of
your last three years of income,
50% salary plus overtime.
That's about 60%
of your current take home.
And that's tax free, right?
Yes, it is.
Plus, my dad gets
a cost-of-living adjustment.
That's a 3% raise every year, for life.
I never really did the math before.
Just think. We both love to travel.
I always did want to see a game
at every Major League stadium.
W-We could even move out of L.A.
I mean, I can be a lifeguard anywhere.
Right? So long as there's a beach.
I hear Bali has a bunch of those.
That's true.
This is so exciting.
No, I haven't decided anything.
No, I know, but
Free money?
You'd be crazy not to, right?
Hm.
Anybody else hungry?
Probably not the best time, right?
I'll pass.
