The first 200 lines.
All those times I brought him coffee without him even asking.
Who?
Oliver. What do you mean, who?
Look, it's more than a boss thing.
Okay? I trusted him.
I would even go so far as to say I loved him.
And what does he do? He just stabbed me in the back.
Backstabbing is not really Oliver's thing.
I mean, all that thought that I put into his secret Santa gift.
Do you even understand how hard it is
to find something creative and... and... and thoughtful...
... For under $30?
I think maybe you're good on the coffee front.
I'm genuinely mad right now.
Well, why don't you talk to him?
No?
No, I'm gonna pretend everything's fine.
- Okay, that's... that'll work. - It will work,
because I'm just gonna put a smile on my face
until I'm actually happy.
But you're not known for your poker face.
Really?
What am I thinking right now?
Probably that if I don't tell you you look happy,
you'll kill me in my sleep.
Ha! That is what I wanted you to think.
I was actually thinking something completely different.
Okay, dear, whatever gets you through the night.
You get me through the night.
What I need is something to get me through the day.
Really?
I'm still mad.
I'd like to open up things to the room.
Is there anybody with us here today
that is here for the first time?
Um... Dave... you mentioned on your way in
that this was your first meeting.
It is Dave, right?
Yeah, uh, my name's Dave.
Hi, Dave.
Not really sure what to say.
I'm not that good at... sharing.
You know, unless you've had a few.
Right?
Um, I guess I'm here because my roommate suggested it.
He thought it might slow things down a little...
Maybe help me gain some balance.
Got a pretty stressful job,
and I lost custody of my... son
Who turned out to actually not be my son.
It's not that I'm an addict per se.
It's just that I'm just feeling a little lost.
So... yeah... that's... that's it. That's it.
Thanks, Dave.
Thanks.
Hey, man. Thanks for waiting.
No problem. How was it?
It was great.
- Seriously? - Yeah.
I mean, I know I didn't want to go at first,
but now that I did, I think it was a good idea.
Uh, it's nice just to talk.
You know, I feel lighter.
Seriously. It was awesome.
"Supersede" ... c-e-d-e?
S-e-d-e.
It's Latin for "seat."
I watch a lot of "Jeopardy!" when I can't sleep.
How's the warrant coming?
Well, it'd be going a lot faster if the spellcheck was working.
Well, I need it as soon
as Oliver gives me a team of uniforms. Yeah.
Detective, if possible,
I'd like to be a part of this raid you're doing.
Why do you think I'm letting you write the warrant?
You're gonna lead the team from 15.
You cannot be serious.
What? I've done entries.
I'm good at tactical. I...
Oh.
What is that?
It's from Dex's lawyer.
Yeah?
He's going for full spousal support,
child support,
and he wants Leo five nights a week.
No, no, no.
No, there's no way he can ask that.
Well, he's got the best family lawyer in the city repping him,
which I don't even know how he can afford her.
If I don't agree to this, they're taking me to court.
He's going for sole custody.
T... t... they're just trying to scare you.
It's working.
Good morning, John.
In Detective Peck's raid,
I see you've allocated units to assist.
I have.
Underground gambling operation, funding gang activity.
That's petty criminals playing poker in a dive bar.
In our own backyard.
Yeah, we shut it down, another one pops up a block away.
It's a waste of resources.
Inspector?
I'd like you to double up patrols in swansea for the week.
I don't have the uniforms for both.
This swansea issue is a delicate one,
and it's important to me.
It's a middle-class neighborhood
- with a crime rate that's below... - Is that a "no"?
If I pull the plug on this raid,
I... I got to give Peck a reason.
And I'm sure you'll come up with one.
Thank you, Staff.
Truly appreciate your cooperation.
Screw you, Wednesday.
Hey, good morning, Sir.
Hey, I just wanted to give you a heads-up
that Detective Peck asked
that I be a point man on the raid team.
Forget about that raid. It's not happening... not today.
Sit down.
Welcome to Wednesday!
Today our focus is on community policing,
visibility, and optics.
Hold on to your hats, folks.
Today we're doubling our patrols in Swansea.
Ooh, emergency.
Bust a bunch of hipsters
drinking Blue Ribbon in high park. Ooh.
McNally, you can be late or you can be mouthy.
You choose one.
So...
Now that I'm publicly shaming you,
Epstein, thank you. You blew off the breakfast meeting
that I set up for you with Sergeant Rollins
in the Intelligence Unit.
I'm sorry, Sir. I... I... I completely forgot.
Well, so much for intelligence.
But, Diaz, you're here.
I'm so happy you bothered to show up at all.
I've been letting this slide, all of it, for way too long.
I've been your sounding board, your friend.
What does it get me? More problems.
What you do isn't just about you.
It affects all of us. Get it together.
Assignments are on the board. Dismissed.
I don't even know where Oliver went.
It's like he's been deleted...
you know, replaced by a company robot man.
What?
You said something bad about another person.
We finally have something in common, McNally.
Oh, no, we'll always have Nick.
Mm.
We both know this detail's a joke.
What has happened to you?
Hey, did you lose your magical girl guide sash?
You know, the one that bestows all your extra-nice superpowers?
- That is funny. - You loved that sash.
That's funny. That's really funny.
All I'm saying is that this shift is gonna be full of the stupidest calls...
noise complaints and stolen garden gnomes.
1519, we've got an animal complaint in your zone.
A man reports his hostile cat has trapped him in his closet.
See?! How?! See?!
- Okay, then let somebody else take the call. - Fine.
You're gonna dodge a call? Really?
1519, are you 10-8?
Okay. Uh, 1519. We're on our way.
Shut up.
Hey.
Hey. Sorry about the raid.
Did Oliver say why he's calling it off?
Oh, political situation, manpower allocation,
a few other buzzwords, you know, but it's fine.
These guys play every Wednesday, so... which is why I'm here.
Can I talk to you for a second?
Okay, this can't go further than us.
I know where Dex is getting his money for his lawyer.
We caught him on surveillance at the gambling club.
He's a regular.
Dex isn't in a gang.
No, he's at their poker game every Wednesday.
He said he had therapy on Wednesdays.
You know, okay, when we do this raid,
if he's in there,
he'll be charged with being in an illegal gaming house.
He can serve up to two years.
You're gonna arrest him?
Traci, you're not responsible for this guy.
You're responsible for Leo and yourself.
Okay? That's it.
And as soon as this raid happens... okay?...
which it will, eventually,
he won't have a case against you.
Unbelievable.
Chloe knows something's up.
She keeps asking me what's going on.
She knows I've been avoiding her.
