S.W.A.T.

Previously onSWAT...I've been looking around for a new place.

Might be able to lock down something swanky with a roommate

to share costs.Are you kidding?

Hell yeah!All right!

So, housewarming.

I'll handle the margaritas,

you handle themusic. Sure.

Hey, Hondo, you got someone to cover for me tomorrow?

Erika could cover for you. Rocker's team has tomorrow off.

She'd be down for it.HONDO: You think this is the

white supremacist group the Imperial Dukes?

That's my worry.

These aren't just smash-and-grabs.

They're coordinated hate crimes.

The guy I arrested yesterday was wearing

the same kind of bandana.HICKS: Abel McConnell

was spotted entering the compound about 40 minutes ago.

Give me two!

Shots fired!

Coming from the attic.

Guten Tag, Chris. What's up?

Hey. Areyou okay?

She'sdead. Whoa,

what are you talking about? Who's dead?

Erika.

Erika Rogers? What happened, Chris?

It all went down so fast. During the raid...

...a bullet winged Tan.

I'm hit!

I'll cover you. Go, go!

Erika and I brought him out safe.

He's okay.

Suspect down. Clear for entry.

Youokay? Hey.

I think I was hit, too.

We didn't know Erika got hit until just after.

It was an armor-piercing round from the shooter.

All units...

58-David is down.

I repeat, 58-David is down.

We've lost Erika Rogers.

Over.

Dear God. Hondo,

call FID, tell 'em we have an officer down.

I'll call Chief Rivera.

I have to notify Officer Rogers's next of kin

before the press leaks it.

Roger that, Commander.

Commander.

Alonso, what are you doing?

You're gonna tell Erika's sister.

I want to come with you.

You need to go back to the scene.

This is an officer-involved shooting.

You and the team have to talk to FID before anyone else.

Please, Commander.

I'm sorry. Go back.

That's an order.

I'm sorry to lay this on you, but they got us separated.

There's no one here for me to talk to.

I think I'm freaking out.

No, I'm glad you called me.

Did you tell Deac yet?

Hondo called him right after we finished with FID.

I don't know what to do.

We've never lost a teammate before.

SWAT doesn't lose officers.

Man, I wish I could be there for you right now.

Please stay on the phone with me.

I'm here as long as you need me.

I'm not going anywhere.

The chief and I extend our deepest sympathies

to you and your family.

An assistance officer will be here shortly

to help you make arrangements.

What's her sister's name?

Latasha. She's Officer Rogers's

only next of kin in the city.

Chief Rivera, it should be me. I should tell her.

Are you sure, Commander?

Yes, sir.

Okay. I'll follow your lead.

All right.

Ms. Rogers...

Oh, my God. No.

Ma'am... No.

I regret to inform you that your sister died

in the line of duty earliertoday. No, please.

: No!

I'm so sorry, Latasha.

Please... The chiefand I extend our deepest sympathies

to you and your family.

No...

I've gone on record before saying that money's going

to all the wrong places in this city.

In all herinfinite wisdom...

That was quite a service this morning, Commander.

Glad to see Officer Rogers's extended family

came in from Houston.

They could see cops from

as far as New York to Maryland attended.

We're gonna have a plaque in honor of her memory

and service here atHQ. That's a great gesture.

I came to tell you that FID's finished its investigation

of 20-Squad's raid.

Our union rep's delivering their report by the end of today.

Any sense how it's looking for us?

I haven't heard either way.

City Councilman Dudley's

been criticizing SWAT pretty hard

the past few days.

A civilian and a Black female officer killed.

It's horribleoptics. I get that.

And we're examining everything on our end.

It's a tragedy we all feel personally.

In politics, tragedies provide opportunity.

Dudley's running for mayor.

And after the past summer's unrest,

the mayor is in the hot seat.

People want reform. That includes LAPD

and city hall.Some people want sincere reform,

others just want a powergrab. Either way,

the public may demand a pound of flesh.

We train the right way.

We do things the right way.

Let's hope the FID report clears your officers.

Nichelle, hey.

Hey. You working today?

They got us on desk duty until the FID report comes back.

Well, I won't keep you.

We really don't get to speak much these days.

I haven't seen you stop by the community center lately.

Just wanted to check in,

see how the funeral went.

The team's taking it pretty hard,

but we're all showing up.

And how about you?

I don't know, I'm, uh...

still processing.

Well, I know you're trying to get better at opening up.

If you want to talk, you know where to find me.

I do. Thank you, Nichelle.

Heard the FID report's coming out today.

Keep your head up.

Thanks, man.

Rocker... I am so sorry about Erika.

She was a great team member.

You know, curious, great spirit.

Constantly asking questions.

She admired you, Hondo.

Looks like you're retracing your steps fromthe raid? I'm doing what I can.

I have no idea what that report's gonna say, so...

I just want to make sure that I remember

how everything went down...

in case I got to defend my decisions.

: Here.

David, I know it's not the best time to ask, but...

do you need to goback? Yeah.

I'm the only member of the squad that's cleared for field duty,

so I have to go back if we get a call.

I mean, to SWAT. Period.

Are you open to leaving?

You mean retiring?

Annie, I'm a year away from collecting my pension.

Yeah, but private security's going so well.

You've got great benefits.

And if you did that full-time, you'd still have a great job

that you love, and you wouldn't be

in this kind of danger all the time.

Can we talk about this later?

What if later is too late?

If you were there three days ago,

that might have been your funeral instead of Erika's.

You don't know that.

Where does that put me and the kids?

I can't do all this without you.

I don't ever want to.

I'm sorry, this morning at the service,

it's just, things got too real.

Just quit while you're ahead.

We'll talk tonight.

Unless you get too busy with work.

I got to go. I'm sorry.

Okay.

Jim, your backpack.

Thank you.

You didn't say a word the whole drive in.

Sorry, I'm just not feeling very talkative.

We all knew Erika, worked with her...

She meant a lot to all of us.

Especially Chris. Iunderstand all that.

But there's something else.

You've been tossing in your sleep.

Normally, that means you're nervous about something.

Look, don't worry about me.

Okay?

See you later?

Okay. I love you.

Love you, too.

Alonso. Need a word with you.
