- Previously on SWAT... - I got an emergency.
Hell you do. What am I supposed to tell Hondo?
Hondo, listen, I got to make a quick detour.
I didn't mean to ruin your day at work.
I know how important work is for you.
Where the hell is he, Chris?
I think there's some kind of drama going on with his mom.
You probably already know,
- but I lied. - You're off SWAT.
You report to patrol duty tomorrow.
Hondo, this is not how this ends.
You don't kick people out of a family!
You want to stop being a cop, you keep pushing it.
I don't need you or anybody else.
- Let's go, baby! - There it is!
Yeah, come on!
Yeah!
Two grand.
Yeah.
What's up?
Anyone else want a piece?
Still the king.
I'll take a shot at that crown.
Whoo! Careful, man.
You don't want it, buddy!
How much you want to put up?
- Much as you want. - Two racks?
- Make it three. - Done.
You almost had him.
Yeah, I was there.
What's this? Where's the rest?
I only got $200.
Truth is,
I really thought I was gonna win.
Strip his bike!
Thanks, guys. Bright and early.
Thanks, man.
Can I settle up, please?
Room 1901.
Business or pleasure?
Sorry?
Just want to make sure the fella
sitting alone with a strap on his right hip
isn't working for anyone connected
- to the case that I'm prosecuting. - Just a cop
taking a break, watching the game.
Well, then, my apologies, Officer.
That's one hell of an eye you got there though, spotting my piece.
Blessing and a curse.
You're a prosecutor, huh?
Deputy D.A.
Wow, that's a tough gig.
Says the brother in blue.
Nia Wells.
Daniel Harrelson.
- They call me Hondo though. - Hondo.
How is it we've never met before?
Maybe we have.
No... we haven't.
Your TV at home busted?
No, no.
I, uh... Just in the neighborhood.
It's a good spot to be alone among strangers.
Sometimes it's nice to be anonymous.
What's this case you're working on?
Embezzlement and bribery.
Guy funneling money to city council members
- to get his way with zoning. - I heard about that.
- That's a big trial. - Big enough for the city
to have me and my team up here for the next month.
How's it coming?
Probably get fired if I lose.
That plus the stress of a divorce,
I'd put my life on pause
just to breathe for a minute, if I could.
So, pause.
Watch the game. I'll buy you a drink.
I don't want to interrupt your brooding.
I wasn't aware that I was, uh, I was brooding.
You hide it well. Most people wouldn't notice.
Why not?
- I owe myself a little downtime. - Hmm.
What are you having?
Double soda on the rocks.
Morning raid. I got to stay sharp.
Well, I'm gonna need something a little stronger.
Whatever you like.
How bad is it?
Oh, you know, embrace the pain, right?
Damn, they stripped, like, ten grand in gear.
How much you owe them?
- More than I had. - You that hard up for cash?
Not till I lost.
Then what the hell are you doing here?
I thought it was easy money. It's not a big deal.
When are you gonna learn how to check that ego?
Getting kicked off of SWAT wasn't enough?
Please, please, can we not go there?
No, no, no, no. You hauled me out of bed
to come help your sorry ass.
You really gonna tell me what I can or cannot talk about?
Okay.
You know, I really appreciate this.
You need to make things right with Hondo
- before he finds someone permanent. - Talking with Hondo's
not gonna change anything. You know how he is with me.
And, honestly, I'm in a good place.
Yeah. I can tell.
- Hey. - Hey.
My crew downstairs, but I figured you could use a cup.
Guessed no cream, no sugar?
Nailed it, didn't I?
Actually, uh...
you did.
I appreciate that.
Won't fix all your problems, but a cup of joe and great sex
might knock a bit of that edge off.
Where I come from, knockin' that edge off goes both ways.
Mmm.
Mmm. Woman,
what time do you free up tonight?
Mm...
As much as I like the sound of that,
already juggling a divorce and the biggest case
of my career.
Not sure a SWAT hotshot with baggage
is a smart choice for me
right now. Okay, wait a minute.
Baggage?
You really are a prosecutor, aren't you?
I'm sorry. Maybe I'm projecting.
But you spend a night like we just had,
and you pick up on a few tells.
Couple that
with six years married to a marshal.
- Your ex is a marshal? - Still a couple pen strokes
from being my ex, unfortunately.
But he's already got a new girlfriend.
Beach blonde Barbie.
All boobs, no ass.
I think maybe he's the one with baggage.
Don't all cops have some?
You keep pushing that rock,
it keeps rolling back down.
Add to that being a black man in this America.
At some point, you start shutting down inside
'cause the truth gets too hard to face.
Start freezing people out.
Freezing people out?
Okay, I think you just used a bunch of fancy words
- to call me an angry black man. - Oh,
- is that all you got from that? - Oh, no, I heard you.
It's my turn.
Who am I looking at standing in front of me?
Let me see.
An overachiever who probably calculates her conviction rate
down to the decimal point,
insists on staying an hour longer than anyone else,
and never leaves the courtroom without asking herself
what she could have done better.
And that right there is probably the first of, what,
six...
cups of coffee you'll probably have today?
Am I in the zone?
See, this is why two folks
good at reading other people
- should never hook up. - You just think
you can read me.
I'm not hiding any baggage.
Right.
I got to go.
This case is gonna be kicking my ass for the next month or more.
And thanks for helping me press pause.
See ya.
You say it's coming from under the kitchen area?
Yes, that's right.
Ought to do it.
Scared him good.
For how long, do you think?
Oh, shouldn't be back for five, six months, at least.
Oh, thank you, thank you. Oh,
you're so lucky to have this man as your partner.
He's the best cop in the city.
So I'm learning.
Wow.
About ten years back,
some tweaker busts into her RV and assaults her.
We arrive and my partner had to take him out
right in the living room.
I can see how that'd rattle her.
Ever since, she's convinced the guy's ghost is out to get her.
So you've been scaring off the same ghost for ten years?
It might not be as sexy
as hanging out a helicopter and scaling buildings,
but real policing gets done with your gun in your holster.
You all right?
Yeah, I'm just sore from a workout.
Thought you SWAT boys were tougher than that.
This isn't personal.
It's city-wide.
I need to trim $200 million off LAPD's budget.
You saying that money should come out of every department
except yours?
We're the city's last line of defense.
When other cops are in trouble, we're the ones they call.
I'm not looking to change that.
But I come from corporate America,
and I've seen how companies find ways
to be more efficient when forced to.
Look, I get how, studying line items and bar graphs,
you might think there's fat to trim here,
but we're running as lean as we can without risking lives.
And I get how you think that's true,
but my experience says different.
You say this isn't personal,
but I can't help feeling like we're being targeted
by the new commissioner.
You're not being targeted.
You're just not being favored anymore.
You were the darlings under Michael Plank.
Now it's a level field.
We need more, because we do more.
It's unpleasant,
but things change and you need to change with 'em.
By 15%.
Number five today.
We haul his ass in,
we're halfway through Metro's Most Wanted.
Well, there's a reason today's target has been so tough
to grab. Dude's smart and crafty as hell.
Nothing's gonna beat number two.
The little guy with the Gatling?
Yeah, that gun was as big as he was.
He shot the hell out of it though.
Hey, Beni, I appreciate you
riding with us while we're a man down.
Long as Metro's crazy enough to give you a team,
I'll pinch-hit anytime.
Street says hello.
Oh, yeah? How's he doing?
About how you'd expect. You should ask him yourself,
if you're curious.
Let's roll, people.
Our primary target is Mack Drummond.
Chances are he'll have a Haitian wingman
named Sal Desir with him.
He's the guy who brings the kids over
before they auction 'em off.
After he buys 'em off their parents.
What kind of lowlife sells children as servants?
The kind about to get served a smackdown.
Poor kids.
I mean, the lucky ones end up
- as only servants. - Well, these guys
are as low as they come.
They could be holding up to a dozen child hostages,
waiting to auction 'em off.
So be sure of your targets.
Watch your backstops and beyond.
We're gonna run a covert clearing off of me.
I want to be right on top of these guys
before they even know we're there.
Hands!
Hands where I can see 'em.
I got kids and a gun.
Back off!
Let's take a minute and talk this through.
Go. Code 4.
Get on your stomach.
Hands wide.
Earthquake!
Come on, man.
Just let us get the kids out of here.

Is everyone okay?
You okay?
Tan, Deac.
- You good? - I'm fine. Deacon, you okay?
Tan, he's not with you? Deacon.
Deacon, do you copy?
Go, go, go.
Deac! You hear me in there?
Deacon!
Deac.
Yeah, I hear you.
My radio's busted.
My leg's pinned.
- But I'm good. - What about your suspect?
He's pinned down under some rubble. He's not a threat.
Get those kids out.
You come back for me later. I'll be all right.
Roger that.
I'll be here.
- Hey, he's okay, though? - Says he is.
You hear anything from Drummond or those kids?
Nothing. Either he can't hear us
or Drummond's keeping the kids quiet.
We can punch through,
but we might bring down more structure if we do.
Nobody's getting in or out this way.
We circle around outside, we see
if we can find a safer point of entry.
- Sir. - Let's go.
- You going to shoot me? - Hoping I don't have to.
Point that gun down so I can see how we can get out of here.
How about you start by helping me free my leg?
I'm not sure why I would do that.
Well, it looks like we're gonna be here for a long time
until you change your mind.
Listen up!
Power and cell services are down across the city,
so remember your EPU disaster protocols.
Our comms are gonna run through FirstNet,
but for the general public,
we've got ten million panicked Angelenos
with no phone, Internet or traffic signals.
Hospitals are already being flooded.
Emergency Management is asking us to take the overflow
of minor injuries from St. Vincent and Gateways.
I'll round up all our medics
and set up a triage center in the gym.
All right. Next up,
Metro Detention took some damage.
With no cameras and alarms, inmates are making a move.
I'll grab my team and keep the bad guys inside
- where they belong. - All right. Watch your backs.
- Always do. - All right, the rest of you
hit the streets and assist where needed.
Retirement homes and schools are requesting help.
Also, dispatch has a list of jewelry and gun dealers.
Weapons and gold are prime looter targets.
Let's keep 'em out of the wrong hands.
Everything all right?
It's my daughter. She's a freshman at Occidental.
Right next to the epicenter.
Cell service must be out.
I need to go find her.
Wait. The roads are a mess.
It'll take you hours to get there.
Give me her name. I'll make a few calls
and see if we can locate her.
Thank you. Really.
- Biggest quake in a while. - Had to be, like, a 7.0, right?
- Maybe higher. - Northridge was massive,
and it was only a 6.7. This was close, though.
Maybe 6.5, 6.6. Felt shallow.
Maybe ten miles down.
The shallow ones, they shake harder,
- but they don't travel as far. - Damn, Luca.
That's serious tremor knowledge.
Well, it was kind of my thing growing up.
All right, listen up. Looks like we can breach
on the third floor. Tan, see if you can find
a pathway to the kids. Beni, Chris, cover him. Go, Tan.
All right, Luca, you got right side, I got left.
Hey, I got a handprint here.
Fresh blood. Looks like Drummond may have taken off.
Roger that. Tan, make entry.
Get to the kids. Keep them there
- until we contain the threat. - Roger that.
- All right, Chris, Luca, you go right. - Yeah.
Beni, you're with me. Let's move.
Let's go.
The rest of my team's gonna have your partner
in custody soon if they don't have him already.
What are the chances he tries to pin this whole operation on you?
He's not my partner.
All the more reason to let you take the fall.
You help me get out of here, you testify against him,
I promise things will go a lot smoother for you.
Can you get me to go back to Haiti?
I can make sure you don't die an old man in prison.
- Have you been to Haiti? - My church did some aid work
down there after the earthquake in 2010.
I didn't make it down.
Yeah. My wife died in that earthquake.
I'm sorry to hear that.
My sons were two and three.
It must have been incredibly hard for them.
And you.
Have you heard of the word "restavek"?
There are 300,000 restavek in Haiti.
One out of 15 children.
- You mean, like, orphans? - No.
They have no word in English for that.
They're servants.
They come from families too poor to feed them,
so they live with the rich,
who feed them in exchange for labor.
We do have a word for that. It's slavery.
That's not slavery.
They are families who do whatever they must to survive.
They are not slaves.
After my wife died, my kids were starving.
I knew if they stayed with me, they would die.
So, a man came and offered to place them for me.
But I couldn't let them go.
I told him that I would find other children for him
if he helped me feed my own.
First, it was just the restavek in Haiti.
And then Drummond came.
And he wanted you to smuggle the kids out for him.
That meant I could feed and educate my kids.
You didn't have a choice.
But you do now.
Look around. You-You're like Jonah
in the belly of the whale. You got no way out.
Don't you think that maybe...
maybe this is God giving you a shot to repent?
You smell that?
One of the gas lines must be busted.
All right, we got to get out of here
before something sparks it and this whole place goes up.
You pull that trigger now,
you kill us both. And all those kids.
Don't do this.
Don't make this mistake. You're not going back
to Haiti.
Tan! Tan, you still out there?!
Is everybody okay?
_
You're James?
_
I think Drummond's got a hostage.
- Kid named James. - Roger.
Watch your backstops and beyond, people.
Dog only. Dog only.
Come on.
Hey!
Stop the car!
- Get out! - Okay.
Okay. Okay.
Get out!
_
Leave the boy. No, no!
Help!
- Beni, Beni. - Help!
Help! Help! Help!
Help!
He's gonna kill that kid!
Let's get a car. Get a car.
- It's okay. - I'll call for air support.
- Tell me what happened. - Uh, he was gonna shoot me,
and the kid stabbed him, and he saved my life. Stabbed him where?
- Stabbed him where? With what? - I don't know. In the side.
I don't know...
Captain, I have an armed suspect
with a child hostage in a stolen vehicle.
I need eyes in the sky ASAP.
I'm not sure how long this kid's got.
Help! Help!
Someone help her.
Please help me.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
I'll radio Fire,
- see if we can get a ladder truck. - There's no time.
You got a better idea?
Please.
Hang on. I'm coming for you!
I need you to clear the squad cars
from the motor pool to make room for the incoming victims.
And, Kevin, make sure there's enough juice in the generator
to get us through the day.
All of our resources are overloaded right now.
I-I'll see what I can do. Everyone's spread thin.
Kevin, find me an airship
to assist a vehicle pursuit in Highland Park.
How bad is it out there?
So far, we've got three overpasses down
and five collapsed structures,
including the Tinsley hotel downtown.
Eight dead, dozens injured.
Still pulling people out.
I have a friend staying at the Tinsley.
Any IDs on the victims?
No, not yet. You think they were still there when the quake hit?
I don't know. I don't know. I'm not sure.
- I hope not. - Got us a ride, boss. Come on, let's go.
Hondo, I got you a news chopper.
- They're willing to help. - All right, roger that.
Suspect is driving a red vintage-model Buick Apollo.
We're in pursuit.
Chris, you and Beni help Tan
get those kids out, then go check on Deac.
Just hang tight. My partner's gonna get you
out of there. I'm coming for you.
You just stay calm. Let me do the work.
What's your name?
My name's Jan.
- Have you been rock climbing, Jan? - No.
I'm afraid of heights.
Okay.
Well, good news is, this is nothing like that.
All right, Jan, I'm gonna lower myself down to come get you.
- Okay. - You just got to hang tight,
and I'll pull us back up, okay?
Aftershock!
- Ah. - You guys all right in there?
A couple scratches.
Nice work, Tarzan.
Best first date ever, right?
Yeah.
Anybody copy? CHRIS: Loud and clear.
- Beni and I are heading your way. - We got to get
these kids out now.
Think there's a gas leak.
Roger that.
You know, the two of us
could move that thing, no problem.
Or we just wait for another aftershock
and hope that this whole building doesn't explode.
I will die trying.
- I need to get back to my boys. - Yeah?
Wouldn't it be better to live
so you can tell 'em how you saved another man's life?
Wouldn't that set a better example?
I got three kids.
I got a fourth on the way.
I know how deep that love runs for them,
and I know how hard... you want to get back to them.
You know that they'd be better off with you alive.
Knowing that you... you did the right thing?
All I've done has been for my kids.
Everything I've done has been for my boys.
I don't doubt that...
but if they were here right now...
if they were here to see you,
what would they tell you to do?
SKY2 says he's a half mile up, going
- south on Huntington Drive. - He's headed to the 10.
Probably figures with the earthquake chaos,
we won't have the manpower to shut down the freeway.
Yeah, well, he figures right. If he makes it that far,
we're gonna be chasing this guy out of town.
And if he has enough gas, he'll outrun us.
Hey, Luca, gun it down Eastern. Try to get
- in front of him and cut him off. - All over it.
I see your team rerouting.
Should be in position to intercept before the freeway ramp.
Roger that, SKY2.
Scratch that.
Suspect now turning west on Valley Boulevard.
Reroute. Drummond's now westbound on Valley.
Repeat, westbound.
That takes him away from the freeway. Where the hell is this guy going?
Ah, it's gonna be a bitch catching up to him now.
Sorry, Captain. We just had a third hospital start diverting
to us, and we're out of space in the gym.
Use the locker room.
Kitchen if you need to.
Commander, I got a freeway collapse across town.
Needs visual support for rescue ops.
Gonna have to abort.
All right, roger that, SKY2.
Looks like your suspect
is turning south on Mission Road.
I'll give another 20 before I lose visual.
- Apologies, Commander. - Sorry, Hondo.
- We just lost our eyes. - Captain, we're gonna
be on this guy in three minutes.
- Can you buys us some more time? - Negative.
They got pulled for a rescue.
Drummond's still heading toward downtown.
- Now going south on Mission. - It's gonna be like trying
to find a needle in a haystack down there.
Hey, sorry.
- Gas smell's getting stronger. - I'll bring the last one.
Come on.
Hey...
Hey, I'm not gonna hurt you, okay?
I promise. I just want to help you out here.
No, no, no.
No, no. I got you.
Come on. Shh, shh, shh.
I got you. I got you, all right?
Okay. Let's go.
Get these kids out on the fire escape.
All right.
After you.
Nice try.
Now, now, get down. Down, down, down, down, down. Get down.
Shouldn't have run.
- I heard the bang. You all right? - Better now.
Did you get the kids out?
I'm working on it.
Let's go, let's go. All your friends are down here.
Come on. Let's go. Come on, buddy.
Come on, buddy. You can do this.
All right, it's okay.
It's okay. We got him.
Deacon! I thought he was out of commission.
Good thing he wasn't. You smell gas?
Yeah. I got the rest of 'em down,
- but this one won't let me touch him. - Hey.
- Let's move this way. Come on. - Move, move!
- Come on. Keep walking. - Come on, please.
- No. - We have to go now.
- No, no. - It's okay. It's okay.
_
Stanley.
_
Let's go.
Speak French?
You don't?
- So, that's all the kids? - All but one.
Drummond got away with a hostage.
All our intel tells us this guy doesn't have anyone
who wants to help him here in L.A.
Yeah, and with cops spread thin, there's no better time to run.
He should be heading out of town, not into it.
So what's his plan?
It doesn't make sense, man.
That quake hits two minutes later, we would have
had him back at that raid.
Yeah, he's probably the only guy in L.A.
the shaking actually helped.
Look, I hope your friend made it out of that hotel okay.
Yeah. Yeah, so do I.
I can't think about that right now.
Wait a minute.
Wait a minute, Luca, what if Drummond's not okay?
The witness said
the kid shanked him pretty good.
What if he needs to get patched up before he can run?
And with all the injuries,
an ER downtown won't think twice about how he got stuck.
Hey, Captain! Captain, track Drummond's route
from the carjacking to where we lost him.
See if any of it points to hospitals or ERs.
Looking now.
SKY2 had Drummond heading south on Hill
just before they lost visual.
Which leads him
- through downtown... to here. - Mm-hmm.
If he stays on Hill, it would take him
- right by Kinney Memorial. - Roger that.
Show us en route. Go, go, go. Go.
I'm sorry, Captain.
I know you're incredibly busy.
I'm just wondering if you've heard anything.
I have, actually. Good news.
I spoke with campus police personally, and
they assured me they only had a few minor injuries.
No one seriously hurt.
But you don't know about Stacey specifically?
- They haven't found her yet? - We're still working on it.
Now, I apologize, but we need to assist our people
in the field.
Of course. Do what you need to do.
You might have a case
against that contractor
if that scaffolding wasn't secured right.
Yeah, I'll talk to my union rep.
Lucky that rebar wasn't longer,
or it would have punctured your lung.
Is that a flight medic?
Oh, they've been in and out all day.
Just medevac'd in a couple
of construction guys who took a tumble when the quake hit.
You guys got a helipad here?
We did. Got damaged in the earthquake.
We're using one on the bank building next door.
Metro SWAT. Out of the way!
You Nick? Charge nurse says you were treating a guy with
a puncture wound to his left abdomen.
- Construction accident. Piece of rebar? - Where can I find him?
I finished up with him. He's over there.
Well, he was just there. We were talking
about the construction guys that just medevac'd in.
- Did he have a kid with him? - No, he was alone.
Okay, what was he asking, exactly?
Wanted to know where they land the helicopter.
- And? - I told him we're using the helipad
on the bank building next door.
- Luca. - Go.
- Out of the way. Excuse me. - Excuse me.
Nothing.
Don't come up here!
This is 20-David.
I have a fatality in the north stairwell.
I need someone to patch through to
the medevac bird on the roof.
Tell the pilot to take off immediately.
Luca, let's move.
Luca, right side!
Hey! Hey!
Don't you move! Don't you move.
Cover me. Go!
Go! Now!
Hondo!
No!
Where's the boy?
Hey. Hey, you're okay.
You're okay. We got you.
Here we go. Got it.
Hey.
You okay?
You're all right. All right, you're good.
You all right?
Are you hurt? Are you hurt?
Do you speak English?
All right, it's all right.
You're safe, okay?
Look at me, you're safe.
I have the contacts at both ports.
And the buyers in New York and Atlanta.
I will give you everything.
I never wanted to hurt other children.
Only to protect my own.
You're doing the right thing.
Do you think I will see them again?
You play ball with the D.A.
You testify to everything you know.
Guarantee it.
They'll be older, but you'll see 'em.
If they survive.
They will.
Mom,
you didn't have to send the cops for me.
I was totally fine.
I didn't know that.
A mother's allowed to worry.
All the good ones do.
I can't thank you enough for this.
Wasn't a typical day, but hopefully you got a sense
of all the work we do here at Metro.
SWAT's not the prima donna that some members
of the commission would have you believe.
LAPD's lucky to have you setting the bar.
So you can see now
how our division requires extra resources.
I do... but unfortunately
the math is still the math, and our budget is only going
to get tighter with all the earthquake damage.
15% is gonna be impossible
without seriously reducing personnel.
"Power and cell service
"is 90% restored after the largest tremor in over 20 years.
"The quake measures 6.6 on the Richter scale
with an estimated depth of 12 miles."
Damn, Luca, you nailed it.
- Yup. - Yup.
Duke! What are you doing here, boy?
- Come on up, up, up. - We were by your place,
- just figured I'd just check in on him. - Aw.
It's pretty trashed, Luca.
There's a broken window, and... I thought he might try
to get out; it didn't feel right to leave him.
Appreciate it, man.
That was good of you, Street.
Did you, uh, catch Hondo out there?
No, I didn't-didn't see him.
Well, maybe you should talk to him before you go.
And say what?
Come on. That you want another shot.
We both know you do.
So how was it out there for you guys?
- Got pretty hairy. - Yeah.
But this guy? He earned his paycheck today.
What'd you do out there, Street?
- Nah, it was nothing, it was nothing. - You kidding?
He risked his ass saving this woman from getting electrocuted.
She was stuck on top of this
- newspaper dispenser, right? - All right.
He hit me like I stole something.
Hey, what's up, Street?
Hey, Hondo.
Tony was just telling us
how Street saved the day out there.
It was no big deal, just a lady in a tight spot.
About to get fried like a chicken.
Kind of an important part.
Well, I'm not surprised.
You got one hell of a cop riding shotgun.
So you're all good?
Yeah. All good.
It's great riding with Tony.
Sometimes he even lets me drive.
Yeah, that's a mistake.
All right, look, I got to get this boy some water.
Thanks again, man.
Come on.
Glad to see you're doing well.
Thanks... you, too.
Anyway, better get going.
There's probably dishes all over the kitchen floor and...
It's great to see you guys.
Hey, Father Ben.
Thanks for getting back to me.
Yeah, family's safe, thanks.
Everything good on your end? Good, good.
Hey, you remember that priest that we were sending aid to
down in Haiti back in 2010?
Yeah, I need him to check on a couple kids down there for me.
Excuse me.
How can I help you, Officer?
That was one hell of a day we had, huh?
Think we're getting through the thick of it.
Listen, a friend of mine
was in that hotel that came down today,
and I know they were sending folks your way.
I was hoping you could tell me if she came through okay.
- What's her name? - Nia Wells.
Oh, here she is.
Nia Wells, admitted with a concussion. Room 2723.
Thank you so much.
Yeah, I was in Phoenix this morning when I got the call.
I dropped everything.
Good news is, she'll be just fine.
How long you two been married?
Uh, about six years.
Well, we're getting divorced, actually.
Funny how something like this happens, and...
I don't know, it changes how you look at things.
Damn, boss.
Sorry.
I actually thought it was gonna be a hell of a lot worse.
So, what's so important, you were parked on my porch?
It's about Street.
- What about him? - Funny.
He's as fearless as they come in the field,
but you ask him to talk to you, he shakes like a leaf.
Street's got nothing to fear from me.
Except you're his only shot at getting his job back.
I haven't seen anything that makes me think he wants it
or that he's earned it yet.
I think Street was trying to connect back there
in the locker room, you know?
I'm worried about him.
I think Street's lost without SWAT.
I'm worried about him, too.
But if he wants his job back,
he's gonna have to prove it to me using more
- than just words. - Then let him know that.
That there's a chance that
the door is still open, so he can walk through it.
The door was never closed.
But if he wants to earn his way back,
he's gonna have to show me that he's willing to be accountable
and own his mistakes.
I cannot afford to have a member of this team
who shuts down inside and freezes me out.
Chris.
Sometimes this job...
it closes you off and it makes it really hard to trust people.
But we hold each other's lives out there.
And that is a hell of a duty.
And I need to see that Street gets that.
I can't force the man to change until he's ready.
Yeah.
