Short filmTranscript
00:07You didn't nap, did you?
00:09I didn't have time.
00:10I gotta find a new place to live.
00:12No excuse, Boot.
00:13Napping is the key to midnight shift.
00:15No shorter than 20 minutes or longer than 40.
00:18But hey, if you're comfortable ignoring my institutional wisdom...
00:21I'm getting evicted.
00:22Whose fault is that?
00:23Not mine.
00:24I'm turning my building into condos.
00:26That's what happens when you gentrify working-class neighborhoods?
00:39What the hell is that?
00:41What?
00:43That.
00:49There was a guy standing there with a mask on.
00:52He was like seven feet tall.
00:54Mm-hmm.
00:56I saw him.
00:57He was right there.
00:59Oh, did you make me get out of this car for a hallucination?
01:18What?
01:22He was right here.
01:26Make believe time is over.
01:41Stop!
01:42Police!
01:57Tim?
01:59Tim?
02:12Step out.
02:16Step out!
02:22Hands where I can see them.
02:26Peel the mask off slowly.
02:28Slowly.
02:39Step out.
02:40Welcome to midnight, Dr. Jen.
02:48No.
02:50No!
03:02Hey, happy to be back on days?
03:05God, yes.
03:05I don't know if you heard, but it was a bit...
03:09Did you make sure it's made?
03:10Of course he did.
03:12Well, you know, just wait until it's your turn, officer in bed by 10.
03:16What can I say?
03:17I'm a morning person.
03:18Mm-hmm.
03:22Good morning.
03:23You're here bright and early.
03:24Hey, if you're not early, you're late.
03:25That's a stupid sign.
03:27What's your problem?
03:28Bad.
03:28I wore my name, too.
03:30It's not the T-shirt, although it is annoying.
03:32I can't find a place to live.
03:34You could always move back home.
03:35No, I really can't.
03:36Or you can bunk up with Nolan.
03:38He lives in a mansion.
03:38Hey, it's not a mansion.
03:39It's a guest house of a mansion.
03:42But you're welcome to crash on the couch if you need to.
03:45Yeah, thanks.
03:46But I am determined to find a nice, clean, affordable place to live, even if it kills me.
03:51Not a mansion.
04:01Oh, no, officer Nolan.
04:03You will be leading roll call this morning.
04:07Sir?
04:07I didn't stutter.
04:09Get up there.
04:19What now?
04:20The clipboard.
04:23Uh, memo to all divisions from the chief of police.
04:27Complaints about police officer entitlement have risen sharply during the last few months.
04:32Sir?
04:33Do you know what that means?
04:34Police officer entitlement.
04:36I assume it has to do with unauthorized perks, free food, things of that nature.
04:41And what is LAPD's policy on gratuities?
04:46No officer shall receive any gratuity, gift, favor, or promise thereof as it may result in or be perceived as
04:54payment in exchange for influence, bias, or direction of an investigation or enforcement of punishable offenses.
05:02Nicely done.
05:04Chin West.
05:06Chin West, will you please join Officer Nolan up front?
05:15Have your training officers discuss this policy with you?
05:18Yes, sir.
05:19And what was your takeaway?
05:20Sir, if I may?
05:21Oh.
05:23Sounds like a little CYA.
05:24No, sir.
05:25Boot and I walk the straight and narrow.
05:27But businesses like having cops around.
05:30Half-priced mail every once in a while is just community relations.
05:33Doesn't mean we show them favoritism.
05:34You agree with this, Officer Bishop?
05:36I'm not saying I've never accepted a free cup of coffee, but it's usually the exception, not the norm.
05:42What about you, Officer Nolan?
05:44I got into this job to help people, not to help myself to free stuff.
05:49Cute line.
05:50It's a bunch of bull, but...
05:52It's not.
05:53Really?
05:54Do you pay fair market value for that beach house you live in?
05:58No, sir, but I act as caretaker for the main house when Ben is away, so technically I'm exchanging services
06:03for my rent.
06:04And what happens when that exchange isn't enough and your buddy gets a ticket or worse?
06:10Then he'll have to pay for his actions.
06:12Okay.
06:14Favors are a slippery slope, people.
06:15And so are freebies.
06:17Look, I like to keep it real in here.
06:20There is the letter of the law and there is the spirit.
06:23It is your job to know the difference.
06:26But make no mistake, as police officers, you have power.
06:32Usually we like to focus on the kind that you holster on your side.
06:35But the power that lives within your badge can be equally as dangerous.
06:41That's it.
06:42All right, guys, be safe out there.
06:47Seven Adam 19, break in at Westside Fertility Clinic.
06:50We haven't received a single freebie since I've been with you, so why did you defend that degree?
06:54Because hard rules like that are stupid.
06:56What we do doesn't exist in a vacuum.
06:59Circumstances dictate actions, not the other way around.
07:02Police?
07:04Anyone here?
07:05Yes.
07:06We had a break in.
07:08Yeah, I can see that.
07:09There's been a rash of burglaries in the neighborhood recently.
07:11Mostly addicts looking for stuff to sell.
07:14This wasn't an addict.
07:15They took embryos.
07:17That's a new one on me.
07:18Do I write this up as a burglary or an abduction?
07:22You want to put out 50 amber alerts?
07:24It's a burglary.
07:25Officer, there's a crucial time element here.
07:28Without proper temperature control, those embryos will be compromised.
07:31Any idea who took them?
07:32They're part of an ugly custody dispute.
07:35A lesbian couple.
07:36The eggs we harvested were from only one of the women, Marilyn Tinney.
07:40Her ex is suing for custody rights, even though she doesn't have a biological connection.
07:44Okay.
07:45We're going to need names and addresses for both women.
07:47Of course.
07:47But you should know, when I called Marilyn to tell her, she got very upset.
07:53Said she was going to kill her.
07:59License and registration, please.
08:00Look, I don't have time for this.
08:01Look, no one does, but you blew through that stop sign soon.
08:03Because Prince Charles is going to die.
08:06Excuse me?
08:06My dog.
08:08He's a King Charles Cavalier, and he just ate a whole bag of macadamia nuts.
08:11Look, I'm sorry, but I still have to write you up.
08:13You're kidding.
08:14I'm racing him to the vet.
08:15They have to pump his stomach.
08:16Those nuts are toxic for dogs.
08:18Look, I understand, but this will only take a minute.
08:19License and registration, please.
08:25If he dies.
08:30Hope your dog's okay.
08:31Have a nice day.
08:33Go to hell.
08:39Do you think a ticket was the best resolution, Officer West?
08:42You heard Sergeant Gray this morning?
08:44We have to remain vigilant.
08:46If we let everyone who's in a rush off the hook, the city would be undriveable.
08:49Her dog is dying.
08:50A warning would have been sufficient.
08:51Okay, a dog that size would have to eat a pound of nuts to induce ataxia.
08:54She drove to the stop sign in the school zone.
08:57It's a pretty serious infraction.
08:58We blow stop signs all the time.
09:00And park on lawns and drive on the wrong side of the road.
09:02Okay, that's different.
09:03We're cops.
09:04We only do it when necessary.
09:05Exactly.
09:06Discretion is an important part of this job.
09:07Even if the outcome is different than following the letter of the law.
09:10With all due respect, I was raised differently.
09:13The law is a law.
09:16I can't believe you took them.
09:17Those are mine!
09:18They are not yours!
09:19They're mine!
09:19Give them to me!
09:20Give them to me right now!
09:21Don't stare at me again!
09:23Listen, I said give them to me!
09:25LAPD!
09:25We're coming in!
09:26Listen to me!
09:26They're mine too!
09:28They are not!
09:28Hey, put down the weapon!
09:29Those are my embryos!
09:30She stole them from the clinic!
09:31No!
09:32They are your eggs!
09:33And we had them fertilized by a sperm donor together!
09:36You remember?
09:36Yeah!
09:37And the judge ruled that I get to use them!
09:39Do you remember that?
09:39Not if they're gone!
09:41Mr. Chip, secure her.
09:43Yeah.
09:44Give me the tubes.
09:45Please!
09:46No!
09:46Please!
09:49Those...
09:50Those are my last chance to carry my own baby!
09:54Please!
09:56Don't take that from me!
09:58Please!
10:01We're supposed to have kids together!
10:05I saw you through your whole cancer treatment!
10:08And then you dumped me for a yoga instructor?!
10:11Wait, wait, wait, wait!
10:13Listen to me!
10:14You're angry!
10:15You're angry!
10:16You have every right to be!
10:18But doing this, it won't put your marriage back together!
10:22Okay?
10:23Nothing will!
10:26But you will come to hate yourself if you go through with this!
10:29So put the tubes back in that container!
10:447 Adam 15 responds to single car accident, 4th Street overpass.
10:48You think I'm compromised living at Ben's house?
10:50Probably.
10:51You asked.
10:52Yeah, but I meant what I said to Sergeant Gray.
10:55If he asked me for a favor, I'd say no.
10:56Why even put yourself in that position?
10:58If it were me, I'd have to pay my own way.
11:00Like a grown-up.
11:02Driver okay?
11:03He's been stabbed.
11:04Left side.
11:05Looks like he passed out then hit his head in the crash.
11:07Any ID?
11:08Not that I can find.
11:09Control, I need you to run the following plates.
11:115 Frank Victor Alpha 2-7.
11:14Call register to Matthew Rodriguez.
11:16Date of birth, 7-7-1990.
11:19Copy that.
11:19Send another unit to our location for an accident report.
11:22It appears Mr. Rodriguez has been the victim of an assault.
11:24We're accompanying RA to the hospital.
11:26We'll follow you.
11:27Got it.
11:28My dad didn't get stabbed driving alone, so either it happened before he got in the car,
11:32or his attacker bolted after the accident.
11:37I gotta admit, I thought there'd be more mysteries on this job.
11:40We'll be happy there aren't.
11:41The unknown is a pain in the butt.
11:43Sure, but still, every once in a while you want a puzzle to solve.
11:517-1-10-15.
11:52Suspect-the-victim.
11:54On foot, force to the Chavez.
11:56Stop them.
12:04Okay.
12:06Now I really want to know what happened.
12:14so our vehicle is registered to matthew rodriguez but our stabbing victim is not matthew rodriguez
12:21looks like mr rodriguez has a rap sheet with gang orders you know what those are it means a judge
12:26ordered him not to associate with gang members wear their colors or go to their neighborhood
12:30odds are a guy like that is connected to our john doe stabbing i thought officers were supposed to
12:34avoid making assumptions there's a big difference between making an assumption and a likely scenario
12:39which is oh let me guess when it comes from you it's a likely scenario there's hope for you yet
12:44officer now let's pay mr rodriguez visit and see if he can shine some light on our stabbing system

24:01our feet
24:01i've been there there have been days where i would have killed to be sitting across from this much money
24:08there for the taking hey don't even joke about that i've heard too many stories from my dad about
24:13cops who started filling their pockets convincing themselves that it was a victimless crime that they were
24:18entitled to a little extra compensation for their troubles okay well relax that's not us yeah
24:24that's what they thought at first too but then you take a body of the creme brulee and the next
24:27thing
24:27you know you're doing three to five for felony theft i'm sorry creme brulee never mind oh man what
24:36i just i still have to pee with all this well done just finished bad guys on the way to
24:48jail
24:48ortiz on his way to the hospital so we're headed out you're not waiting for us nope but we're leaving
24:53a
24:53shot behind remember shift starts tomorrow at noon but you want to get in early to do tonight's paperwork
24:57copy that are the money counters gonna get yourself i'd get comfortable if i were you
25:02those guys work at their own pace oh where's the
25:15i'd still do the job even if i came into money that's not a shock you know i would too
25:26you've known what you've wanted to do since birth but i just figured out there's no way i would
25:31down now what about you having money makes things easier not better that's not an answer
25:41would you quit the job and passed up on being hazed on a daily basis
25:45by training officers ten years of my junior come
25:56all right officers grazer and williams arriving on the scene 117 a.m we're leaving three uniformed
26:03officers what are your names nolan chen west anyone else come in or out no ma'am great
26:10get the road we got it from here you coming we might never see this much money again if there's
26:23ever another raid and they need someone to sit and wait until the wee hours i have a feeling it'll
26:27be us
26:49do i oversleep shift starts at noon captain called me to bring you in early why she didn't say
26:53that sounds bad it's not good do i have time to get dressed
27:01what's going on i told us to gather our boots same as you
27:05we have a situation money counters are telling us that we're missing 250 000
27:10and you three were the only ones left alone with the money
27:21well the money counters must have made a mistake there's video of them entering the
27:24garage and relieving you and then they counted the money and got 750 and not a million let me
27:30remind you an officer was recently convicted of third degree official misconduct for taking 70
27:35dollars from a crime scene he served in two years behind bars what do you think would happen to a
27:39cop
27:39who steals a quarter million dollars but we didn't take it maybe the assumption was wrong maybe it was
27:45always 750 that's not what the intel shows guys on the bar are saying it's a million okay well we
27:50can all
27:50vouch for each other not good enough the only thing that will clear you is passing the polygraph
27:55no i can't by law make you take one it would have to be strictly voluntary what if we decline
28:00there's grounds for suspension pending investigation and it possibly could lead to your termination
28:06well that's not much of a choice but yeah we'll do it okay let's go what now now
28:24you think one of them really could have done it not by themselves no one came back into the house
28:28to use bathroom one of the other two could have hidden some of the money then came back picked it
28:33up
28:33later there's no way west participated that kid is squeaky clean off of chen she wouldn't get
28:38caught like this sounds like a compliment i'm just saying she's smarter than that it doesn't matter
28:43if they did it or not if they don't walk out of there with a flawless polygraph they're done
28:52what am i saying the pressure pad that registers if you attempt to try to cheat the polygraph by
28:58clenching your buttocks well that can't be a real thing you just clenched really what am i doing now
29:08officer west you seem uncomfortable something you'd like to get off your chest before we begin
29:16yes i um i had to buy the creme brulee okay and yes it was delicious like i i know
29:23it was wrong but now
29:24that taste is in my mouth that sweet flavor of corruption it's just but i want to let you guys
29:30know that i've learned my lesson and it will never happen again okay let's begin with a few controlled
