S.W.A.T.

Previously on Swat... I look for every opportunity,

like the T.L.I. liaison thing.

Chris, Street and Tan all competing against each other.

It sounds like

things are already getting kind of frosty.

Why did you both sign up for T.L.I.? Is it a big deal?

Keep an eye on the three young'uns. Will do.

38th annual master gunner is

Jim Street.

Good job.

You passed.

Two cadres in two months.

That's bad ass. I'm starting to smell victory.

It's my mom again. She hasn't checked in

with her P.O., and if she misses one more meeting...

They'll put out a warrant and revoke her.

So you leave the apartment and disappear for weeks,

without a word, and start using again?

What's she on?

Took a mix. A little of a lot of things.

You missed several check-in appointments

and were found under the influence

of narcotics. You reported me.

So that you can get treatment and get better.

What kind of son would do this to his mother?

The kind that doesn't want you to die.

Well, look at you, all domesticated.

Smells good.

Maybe not as tasty as Luca's special breakfast burritos,

but, as long as he's in Germany,

it's gonna have to do.

Man, I'm running late.

Hey, would you mind plating these real quick?

I'll be right back. "Plating"? Really?

Think maybe we need to stop bingeing those cooking shows.

Babe, your phone.

I think it's your mom.

Jim Street's phone.

This is a collect call from state prison inmate

Karen Street.

Will you accept the charges?

Yes.

Mrs. Street, my name is Molly.

I'm Jim's girlfriend.

Is that my phone?

It's your mother.

Just a sec, Mrs. Street. Here's Jim.

Jim, what are you doing? That was your mom.

Yeah, I know.

Why in the world would you answer that?

What if it was an emergency?

Which it was.

Apparently, she's really sick.

Says they've got her at the prison infirmary. She's fine.

She didn't sound fine.

I promise you it's just another one of her scams

to suck me back into her life.

Well, if you'd talked to her, we'd know for sure, wouldn't we?

You know, there's a reason

that I never mention my mother to you.

I'm done with her. She's out of my life.

I don't want her anywhere near me,

and I definitely don't want you anywhere near her.

Believe me, it's for your own good.

You know, I'm gonna be late.

I'll grab breakfast at work.

Molly.

Just wait a second.

Molly.

Thought I was gonna be first in.

Why are you two here so early?

Wanted to get an extra workout,

in case Hicks throws another fitness test

into the T.L.I. competition. You're really going all in.

I have to if I'm gonna win it.

Come on, Tan, tell me you're not hoping it's you.

Chance to spend a whole month in Europe with Luca,

sharing all your SWAT knowledge.

Yeah, of course I want it to be me.

Just hoping there's still time to catch up to Street.

You think he's that far out front?

You got to figure, after winning the Master Gunner title.

Doesn't seem right.

I mean, the guy showed almost no interest in the competition

when it started. Now he's in the lead? I wouldn't count Chris out.

You bagged the climbing competition.

You already completed the sniper cadre,

the defensive tactics cadre.

I mean, I'm not putting money on it like some guys, but...

Wait. People are betting on this now?

Yeah, Rocker's running a pool.

He's getting a lot of action, I hear.

Anyway, the point is, Chris is still in it.

It's probably gonna come down to her and Street.

No offense.

Yeah, right. None taken.

Dispatch, this is Engine 127. We are en route.

Do we have any further information

- on our structure fire? - Negative, 127.

911 caller only reported the fire.

Hung up without giving any details.

All right, let's go.

Dispatch, Engine 127. We are on scene.

It's just a dumpster fire.

You can cancel any further response to our location.

Look on the bright side, Cap.

We knock this down and get back to the station,

still get your morning run in.

What do you say, Bradley?

We let the rookie man the nozzle on this one?

Who, me?

You up for it? Hell yeah. Why not?

All right, now, don't get greedy.

Just ease into it, okay?

Slow and gradual.

Whoa.

You guys hear that?

What the hell was that? Hey. No idea.

Shooter! Get down! Take cover!

Cooper!

- Captain! Cooper's hit! - Somebody call it in!

Dispatch, we're under fire!

Someone's shooting at us! We got a man down!

Need help now! Cooper!

Coop!

Active shooter's got firefighters pinned down.

One's been hit. Any word on their condition?

No. The others can't get to him. We know who it is?

Don't know that, either.

The sooner we get there, the sooner we'll find out.

Hey.

Everything all right? Yeah.

It's just more crap with my mom.

Thought I was done with all this.Hey.

I need you with us, Street.

I'm here, Hondo, 100%.

I'm gonna put us between him and the shooter.

Damn, it's Kyle Cooper.

Cooper. Can you hear me?

Yeah.

Hey, hey!

Stay where you are! Get back!

We have Cooper. Deac.

Deacon, do what you can for him.

The rest of us will take care of the shooter. Street, Tan,

see if you can access the building from the north.

Chris and I'll try the east. Chris, move.

You're the best LAPD could send?

All right.

You cops really do hate us real heroes, don't you?

Real heroes?

Think your blood loss is making you

a little bit delusional there, Cooper.

Hey, stay with me. Cooper!

20-David. We're on the roof, south side.

Roger that, Hondo. We're on the east.

He's gone.

Probably bolted as soon as he saw us.

Access ladder back there must've been his escape route.

This is 20-David to Command.

Shooter has left the rooftop. We've lost sight of him.

Hey. Keep me posted?

I'll want to know how he's doing.

You got it, Deacon.

Captain.

Commander. Anything?

Shooter was gone by the time we got up to the roof.

We already got a perimeter search going.

RHD's stepping in.

How's your guy doing?

I don't know.

It's bad. Just trying to stay positive.

What the hell happened?

Dumpster fire, deliberately set.

911 call came from a burner.

And it's no accident you were lured into a box canyon

between these buildings.

What, you saying that we were... It was a trap.

Someone's hunting the LAFD.

Just heard from Ballistics on the shell casings you collected.

No match in the system.

What about RHD? They turn up anything on their sweep?

They uncovered an illegal grow operation

in one of the neighboring warehouses.

Think maybe our shooter could've been the lookout for that,

just freaked out at the lights and sirens.

But you're not buying it. Do you?

Burner phone, fire set intentionally...

This was specifically designed to lure and target firemen.

Why?

If the LAFD is under attack, that throws

the city's whole emergency response system into chaos.

I already talked to Central.

They're gonna try to roll patrol units with every LAFD call,

but with funding being squeezed, that's a big ask.

We've always had our rivalries with the smoke eaters,

but at the end of the day, it's our job to protect them.

Any word on the injured firefighter?

Nothing good.

He, he flat lined twice on the ride in.
