Deputy

I'm running for sheriff.

You okay with that?

Ah, it's a free world.

If he wants to...

I've lost my purpose here.

Especially since the accident.

So what are you gonna do about it?

I know what I want. Intelligence Analyst.

Thinking about getting a drink at the bar,

if you wanna join me.

Did you just flirt with me?

No.

Now that Undersheriff London

has announced his candidacy,

you should begin to coordinate with him...

No.

You gonna run? 'Cause I think you should.

It's not that simple.

You want me to spy.

If that means looking out for yourself

and that promotion you worked so hard for,

yes.

Sheriff's Department!

Keep moving.

Damn it!

Well, I'm dead.

Shot a hostage. Destroyed a family.

They'll sue you, the department, and the county.

You'll be put on leave, then fired.

Start a new career working the drive-through.

I didn't know he had a hostage.

You were anticipating, boot.

The whole point of this exercise

is to enhance your decision making,

cut down reaction time.

You're out here trying to set a new record

for murdering civilians.

Think before you shoot.

How about you give me some tips

instead of telling me how bad I'm doing?

I just did.

Now watch your tone and try to listen.

It might save your life one day.

Reset the course.

Let's go again.

OPERATOR (OVER PHONE): 911. Please state the nature of your emergency.

WOMAN (SOFTLY): There's someone in my house.

Please help me.

Stay calm, ma'am. I'm here with you.

I see you're calling from 2416 Wonderland,

is that correct?

Yes. Please hurry.

Dispatching units now.

Two minutes!

We gotta go!

There's two of them.

Smile for the camera.

Oh, where did you get that?

Spoils of war.

Let's bounce.

It's quiet tonight.

I was just thinking the same thing.

I wonder which kind it is.

What do you mean?

If it's this the quiet that comes after the storm or...

or the one before it.

Isn't your Mom coming tomorrow?

Could be both.

I think we better assume

that the storm isn't gonna pass.

Now, the only quiet we can rightfully expect

is up to us.

And the moments we choose.

Like right now?

Like this very second.

Ohh. (SIGHS)

- London. - Yeah.

- Yeah. Bill?

I'm at the West Hollywood home that was burglarized tonight

and I'm calling in my favor.

BILL (OVER PHONE): You sure about that?

There's plenty more days till the ballot box.

You might wanna keep that powder dry.

I was under the impression that Sheriff Hollister never rested

when the safety of LA County was at stake.

Don't get all sanctimonious on me, Jerry.

Your face might get stuck that way.

West Hollywood City Council is up in arms.

Third break-in this week.

This time... someone was inside.

So, you're gonna help me out or not?

Yeah, I hear you, all right?

I'll meet you at the hall, first thing tomorrow.

My, you better get your slicker, cowboy.

I sense a storm coming.

Let's get back to that quiet moment.

Why'd you send home the responding deputies?

I thought this was a pressing issue.

They filed their report.

I was hoping we could handle the rest discreetly.

And why would we do that?

Bill, these people are influential,

not just in the community.

We need to be respectful of their privacy.

And I'm sure it has nothing to do

with lining your campaign pockets, right?

Not my pockets. Ours.

West Hollywood is one of the department's most lucrative contracts

and, between you and I,

they're considering a change.

We're not the damn Pinkertons, Jerry.

We go where we're needed, not to the highest bidder.

Look, I'll keep my word,

but I'm not helping you get elected.

Remember, this is a favor.

- Who are you calling? - Cavalry.

Oh...

Genevieve?

What do you want?

My clothes.

First day of Majors. I can't be late.

- Can we please talk? - (SIGHS)

Every time we talk, we fight.

I don't wanna fight.

I love you.

You're my partner. I need to be able to talk to you.

Then you shouldn't have lied to me.

- I didn't lie! - You told me you were a woman.

And now I hear that's not the whole truth.

Actually you assumed I was a woman,

and in what should come as no surprise,

I'm a little more complicated than that.

Look, Gen...

this is me finally living my truth.

Being the most authentic version of myself.

And I need you to understand that.

I do.

I just...

I just feel like I don't know who you are anymore.

I'm the same person you fell in love with.

I haven't changed.

I'm still me. I'm just a clearer version of me.

I need time to process this.

...so residents needs to be vigilant.

Keep your doors locked,

report any strange cars parked outside,

and don't walk alone at night.

This goes for the whole county.

Just because they stuck to West Hollywood

doesn't mean they won't try new territory.

So everyone needs to be on alert.

We can end this before it gets worse.

- Thank you. - (REPORTERS CLAMORING)

That was about as unquiet as you can make something.

Quiet is not the right strategy.

It's gonna be a lot harder for these guys

to hit another house

now that everyone knows they're out there.

You got a real talent for missing the big picture, Jerry.

Hey, man, how'd it go this morning?

Hey. It went.

"It went"? What does that mean?

You do what I told you to do? You anticipate the corners?

Yeah. Yeah, I did.

And I shot the damn hostage.

Oh, man.

What are we gonna do with you?

Look, when I say anticipate the corners,

I don't mean "come out guns blazing."

What I mean is you gotta have a picture in your head.

You gotta have the worst-case scenario.

And you need to be prepared for it.

- Does that make sense? - Yeah. Yeah, I got it.

How'd Minnick react?

About how you'd expect.

I have a feeling she's gonna be on me today.

Well, it sounds like you're gonna have

plenty to vent about tonight then.

You still wanna go shooting?

Yeah, but isn't the range gonna be closed?

Who needs a range when we got

the back of a pickup and a good arm?

If the badge doesn't work for us, who does it work for, man?

See you tonight.

Grandma, I love these old pictures of Mom.

Mom, you were so pretty.

"Were"?

Your mom's never not had it going on.

_

It's my favorite!

Ah, gracias, mama.

Have you two found inspiration?

Oh. This quinceañera's gonna be awesome.

- Aw. Maggie.

You're in good hands, baby.

Tu abuela, she knows how to throw a party.

Yeah. And if you need proof, just look at those pictures

'cause that was a fun party.

And you, you're in good hands, too, mi vida.
