[Music]



[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

[Music]

merit its medical emergency response

interlink team cooperative venture

between the Santa Monica PD the fire

department and the LA County lifeguards

lieutenant Flair MO and I had the

privilege of launching this new project

which includes paramedic level care and

life support equipment up and down the

boardwalk on bikes ready to go and we

made sure to get the two best people on

the planet to kick it off dan foster it

elects to show lack protecting the

future

you guys need to recertify for EMS dan

and Alexa check out on the bikes you'll

train each other can I get a flu shot

out of it expects a certain level of

professionalism once not trying to have

too much fun huh all right good Victor a

volunteer you and Cory you're up first

that's fine I'm gonna get you some

training wheels there all right Daniel

just lead on hotshot let's go hey Lonny

I feel some time later on we could talk

about yesterday's pier driver all right

I'll be at the substation all day right

and how much work you put into this I

just wanted to say thanks well I heard

you were coming on board I made it all

worthwhile

no you could I tell your old girlfriends

how do you even close I just hope your

husband's okay with this Tony my husband

isn't my husband anymore see you later

[Music]

I don't know not bad I guess

do I look stressed no more than usual

that bad huh actually this is a worse

that's ever been found so trickle of

water can erode even the strongest Rock

interesting choice of words do you view

yourself as a rock I used to

and what's eroding you but some of those

people I couldn't save um that woman who

died when I turned my back so how do you

know Dennis Morel Lonnie when he isn't

spray-painting walls or jumping off the

pier he's president of green earth

bonnie was one of the founders of green

earth in the late 80s we were all about

peace love and Mother Nature Dennis

joined when he was a teenager he was

radical even then we know he got busted

for tree spiking and reading bloggers

lost his hand but they couldn't prove

the connection tip of the iceberg this

guy's extreme how extreme sabotage

violence bombing he chained himself to a

petramco tanker it's not extreme it's

nuts which is why I left green earth

when this faction took over knowing you

I'm sure you've made some calls where it

is then this is about to launch total

war against petramco

I'm not sure how it's gonna shake down

but I am sure well I'll be wishing he

was still spray-painting graffiti

[Music]

it's better already

yeah I think it looked sick don't start

those I've not begun to start

well that sounds vaguely like a threat I

didn't mean it to be vague let it go

let him talk we're very interested don't

patronize me lady

hey remember it don't take that tone

with my partner you don't get it I'm one

of the good guys could have fooled us

petramco they're the enemy

groundwater contamination you know what

that means

innocent children getting cancer kidney

failure blood diseases and how does your

little paint job change any of that it

lets the people know what criminals like

petramco are doing it just for the

record I don't totally disagree with you

but there's a right way and a wrong way

to fight they hide behind lawyers bend

the letter of the law pay bribes to

politicians how right is that out of our

jurisdiction if they spray paint the

side of your house who take him into the

paint's just a warning officer it's

gonna get a lot uglier than that before

it's over

[Music]

right now I like the way you blow that

whistle pretty lady this is Mackenzie

1033 tower 12 I repeat 1033 that's right

up ahead nobody's gonna get hurt okay

put the knife away and just move on well

nobody's gonna get hurt

you and I are just gonna play a little

bit huh

[Music]

you're gonna pay for that

[Music]

let's be like a toothpick in here call

huh dad

down

[Music]

it's a clean incision so in a couple

weeks you won't even have a scar

get over here what's up you don't ever

ever insert yourself in police action

again they attacked a friend of mine

that's not the point damn first time I

saw a dead person was on this job I

couldn't sleep for a week afterwards

well I want you to know that is a normal

reaction yeah you see that's the problem

I sleep like a baby now that is also a

normal reaction you're gonna tell me

that I'm insulating myself against the

pain finding a way of dealing with the

pressure there's nothing wrong with

protecting yourself after such a

traumatic event yeah there is because it

means that death doesn't affect me

anymore

I don't to become that person

what I just realized something I want to

kiss you so bad my lips say suck on ice

TC come on remember we made a promise

not on the job that's poor over here

alone hold that but this is one p v7

responding elective

Denis hurry up I've almost got it

back away for the pipe now Dennis I

don't think you want me to just do it

and slowly let me see your hands

whatever you say put it down it back

away bad idea

[Applause]

hearing a light explosive device

No

wait a minute you got it wrong you know

your right to remain silent using grass

okay does anybody hurt have you lost it

completely what were you thinking

it wasn't my bomb you lying sack you all

right yeah I'm okay how are you okay I

guess you don't sound sure what do you

wanna hear that it's a miracle more cops

aren't killed in the line of duty

you ever think about it being you of

course I do

but only afterwards when something's

going down you just let it drizzle and

carry you through like when the bomb

went off

yeah later I realize it could have been

spread all over that Beach like meat

sauce but at the time you enjoyed the

intimacy with danger I don't know if I

want to admit that hey we agreed to talk

to you without our attorney at least

give us the benefit of the doubt so why

don't you tell us the truth we did

petramco uses that drainpipe we got a

tip to test the runoff for high

concentrations of chromium but you can't

tell us who called you we get anonymous

tips all the time so you went to go test

the water and that's when you found the

bomb correct

Dennis saved everyone on the beach why

are you treating him like a criminal

because as far as we're concerned you

are criminals you've made terrorist

threats in the past and you've been

known to carry the mouth if I was gonna

bomb for tram Co you think I'd waste my

time with a runoff pipe it's obviously a

setup multinational corporation with

billions and revenues is so concerned

about you they're willing to bomb their

own facilities this is a war a stunt

like this is cheap to fix highly visible

and easy to blame on green earth they

probably meant to take us out with the

explosion and they damn near did

greenhouse lawyers just bambam try to

look past your uniforms maybe you'll see

what's really going on

ask yourself this what if we're telling

the truth

[Music]

what are you - thank you guilty as hell

Chris I'm the one who's guilty I've made

this job much harder than it needs to be

officer Kelly stress debriefings are

strictly confidential nothing that said

here can be repeated or accessed by

anyone else there for your benefit only

I'm seeing a fellow officer and it's

affecting you I'm worried that he's

gonna get hurt he's worried that I'm

gonna get hurt

now I know why they discouraged these

things what do you plan on doing to ease

the additional stress I don't know I

mean I love the job and I'm falling in

love with him

those are good things

I've always loved this place when things

started to go sour between Radha me I

used to come here just to think I have a

place you're [ __ ] right up the beach

it feels weird to be here with someone

that I actually trust I guess I just

guess they're used to being alone yeah

alone is an almost grand

[Music]

so many times I wish things had turned

out differently

I have a lot of other issues in my life

but make things more complicated than

that I understand

when you're ready I won't be too hard to

find

okay what is start and when we use it

standard triage and rapid assessment

it's the protocol for prioritizing

victims and in multiple casualty

incident good what constitutes an MCL

anytime victims outnumber rescuers okay

you're the first rescuer on scene in a

bus crash take me through the steps Tony

first I separate any people who aren't

heard then I go right to assessment

which is ABCs airway breathing

circulation I would do a head tilt chin

lift and make sure the air passage is

clear and then check for breathing and

pulse and if either one is absent I

would tag them black and move on so you

never do CPR during triage not as long

as their victims still waiting to be

triaged wow that's not so mercenary I

mean you could save somebody's life true

but you'll do more good in the long run

if you help the victims that's and the

greatest chance of survival initial

triage is very quick you might have some

time to come back and help the others

but remember in MC is utter chaos triage

is the eye of the storm

[Music]

I got that new gasket for the pressure

gauge should be okay now how do we got

here

so you guys go ahead you can probably

service that and then check back in a

half hour

make Callie you got him

sergeant Calloway it's officer Kelly

pleasure what's on your mind

dunno gay I mean Dennis Mauro if I

didn't you wouldn't be here but you got

a complaint you want me to sign that

won't be necessary

what is it exactly [ __ ] Co filed seven

complaints against green earth in the

last year saw the legal and

administrative people you have your

company just wondering why your name is

on the bottom of each form chief

security plays your falls on me

so it's nothing personal on every met

little sob mr. Morrow's claiming the

petramco is allowing toxic chemicals to

slip through its water runoff mr. Morrow

is a cue desk of everything except

covering up the alien crash of Roswell

with that aside sir

he went to test the runoff water for the

storm pipe and found a bomb he said you

planted it oh he did Dennis morrow he's

he's kind of a fanatic you know what I

mean a saboteur

he likes to point the finger at us

because that way it makes us look like

the bad guy that's his deal well just

the same we'd like to know that you're

available just in case we have any more

questions oh yeah I'm not going anywhere

but I got a question for you I mean

what's gonna take a dead body for you to

see that man for what he is

thank you very much

lady after tomorrow shift I want you two

to resume regular patrols did Chris and

TC - Jokke our friends and read for a

few days huh the hell was that it

Jim a couple breaths

Oh one two three all right

well

well come on lieutenant hey no you can't

do something something's wrong

oh damn come on Tony

what does that mean Karen

everything was happening so fast it was

people were screaming there was blood

everywhere and it's hard to imagine that

it would get worse but then dead body

seems to weigh less than a live one like

something's gotten out of it

I'm so scared bringing out the

lieutenant it's it was weird but it's he

was like as light as a feather when

Victor put the lieutenant down I

actually got lightheaded I just I wanted

to throw up I never felt more helpless

in my life thank God for Alexa

lieutenant Palermo everyone Man of Steel

damage stuff like fried my favorite pair

of tennis shoes pretty good for a guy

who was clinically dead hey thanks for

those kisses you brought me back I know

things never change

instead of Blair mo this is Frank Todd I

guess I'm glad to see you all right I

know I speak for everyone when I say how

sorry we are for your loss

yeah save it lieutenant the last thing I

want is your sympathy then what can I do

for you well I guess I just wanted to

look into the eyes of the man whose life

meant more to miss show luck here than

my girlfriends mr. Todd Karin Jacobs

died of a ruptured abdominal aorta only

a miracle could have saved her life she

didn't know that then she abandoned her

to perform CPR during triage that's a

clear violation of protocol I'm a lawyer

this morning I filed a wrongful death

action against Michelle like in the

Maritim on behalf of the family of Karin

Jacobs

see you on Courtney

Thanks

[Music]

no long tunnel no bright light no Becca

mean loved ones I think it would have

like that just blackness and cold it was

very cold and what I was just a visitor

how is the experience changed your

perspective I don't think I fully

absorbed it yet but I feel appreciation

for what to the taste of the stamp when

I made my mortgage payments

the Bertha Spyder my bicycle seat this

morning my life hmm

any downside my friend Alexa she could

lose everything for saying than that are

you feeling survivor's guilt why should

i why should anyone feel guilty what

kind of system puts you on the life and

death line and then punishes if you make

a wrong decision do you think Alexa made

the wrong decision not for me

the weapon dents only the ones who

knocked my door down what the hell's

going on

search warrant arrest warrant what let

me refresh your memory

office building dynamite two people dead

whoa back up a second

do you miss something a woman named

Karen Jacobs stopped by to have lunch

with her boyfriend a man named Roscoe

Sherman 20 year petramco geologist left

three kids behind

Roscoe Sherman yeah sound familiar

witness saw you follow him through a

parking lot a few hours earlier Roscoe

was my friend he was greener small

inside petramco the guy who gave me all

my tips that's an interesting story

that's the truth you always keep

dynamite in your kitchen desk it's not

mine I swear they're setting me up come

on

Hey

I thought I'd find you here I'm glad you

did

you want to talk about it

[Music]

you just keep going through this loop we

could I have done anything else if I

spent a little more time would I have

found the internal bleeding and if I had

could we've saved her doctor saying now

[Music]

come on

[Music]

stop protecting me I already know my

officers have been subpoenaed to testify

before a wrongful death hearing how they

have to tell the truth even if it

intimate the panel's no no you acted in

the best possible way that depends and

if they look at the rules or the results

because I definitely broke the rule to

save your life

[Music]

for that

I'll never be able thank you

[Music]

laughs Tony

[Music]

I don't know what I'm doing I don't know

where I'm going

I know I care about you so much

but I can't bring you down

yeah

[Music]

[Music]

that's it hey Dan Dan I got nothing to

say to you guys

hey we had no choice about testifying

maybe but you didn't have to submarine

Alexa come on pull over would you tell

them we've told them when I brought out

to lieutenant there was enough personnel

to handle Chee eyes and that you managed

the situation perfectly even the lawyers

that Karen Jacobs death was unavoidable

and Tony Palermo was Alexa his life Dan

we backed her up all the way they're

gonna jerk her ticket I know it not

because of us that's great

no listen keep me posted thanks so much

they put you back in the saddle on your

Sabbath Tony what are you saying

I'm sure Mara it's gonna be a big

success but I can't do it anymore I've

hit the ball the wall doesn't beat us I

beat ourselves I've been taking care of

everyone else for years now it's time to

take care of me it's valid it's not a

reason to quit please Tony don't make

this harder than it already is

yeah I won't I can't make it any easier

either

[Music]

[Music]

hey guys hey I heard they filed murder

charges against Dennis which it turns

out he may not deserve surprised to hear

you say that TC I'm more surprised than

me

investigators found this in Roscoe

Sherman's pocket

it's a post-office receipt for a package

he sent Dennis the day he died right

it's proof that they knew each other

Roscoe's wife let us go through his

personal effects and we found a half a

dozen others dating back three years so

Dennis wasn't lying Roscoe was a mole

for greener

books that way the package was sent to a

post-office box

Dennis owns if we can recover the

contents might help clear him but Dennis

had motive he had opportunity and II had

dynamite in his possession

but if he's innocent then we'll have to

clear him he's the only one willing to

stand up with the rest of us

Cindy Cindy wait a second I don't have

to talk to you you want to help so far

your track record sucks please leave me

alone

give us the envelope Cindy there's this

lawyer says I don't have to give it to

you there's evidence in there that might

help him you put him in jail charged him

with murder look Cindy we know you're

scared and confused but think about it

if they killed Roscoe to try and keep

whatever's in that envelope a secret

what do you think will happen when they

learned you have you believe dennis is

innocent we're open to the possibility

you know what's in that envelope

Roscoe said it was a smoking gun we

needed it proves that petramco knowingly

diverts contaminated runoff into the

ocean

please

don't let Dennis go to prison he didn't

kill anyone

chromium arsenic benzene all known

carcinogens all being dumped illegally

by petramco periodic run off to the pico

storm draining this is what a billion

dollar class action lawsuit looks like

not to mention evidence in a double

murder these are all stamped

confidential eyes only above make cali

signature petramco security chief your

interview yeah and if we're right

lieutenant all these out pretty simply

Nate Cali wanted to stop the leak of

damaging information from inside

petramco so he killed Roscoe Sherman and

then set up green earth to take the hit

Matt and a confession we'll get your

conviction well you got here's

speculation and circumstantial evidence

which brings us to the part of our

program where we need your approval this

is the eagle the pigeon has landed he's

heading into the amusement park ten-four

just past our position

not bad Dennis taught me everything as a

weak spot we can attack

pretty hungry aren't you

just were living in cynical times you

oughta know is that the money yeah no

first victim

who are you he's the reason why we're

making this deal I would have turned

this over to the cops and let them fry

your miserable what names Victor the new

president at Green Earth for the moment

for the very brief moment I mean I

didn't read being your friend okay

that's a two-way street pal right now we

been a smart class action lawyer will

give us children for these files

decision before you turn your back on me

shoot me right here right now in front

to get away from me well there's a new

era at Green Earth and we just don't

turn the other cheek anymore your

predecessors in jail for murder the guy

I'm a police officer and you're under

arrest

[Music]

children

[Music]

it's called death by cop Callie this is

where a perp was to die but you know

when he takes a shot at three police

officers and he has then threw the dirty

work for me

Oh for an a jump the fall doesn't kill

you

the oceans will

viewing it as cross-training I need more

bike work anyway I feel like I'm letting

you down we've all been where you are

doesn't understand

[Music]

beach

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

vorse death in the line of duty

suicide burnout sooner or later we all

confront the black hole try to find

creative ways to deny it that's always

there just talking he like some kind of

demon in the night no one's immune

felons immortal will succumb eventually

it sounds pretty defeatist I prefer a

realistic any upside

funny I'm satisfied to know that when my

time comes I'll be replaced by some of

the finally selling peoples from my

pleasure to serve worth and trying is

that enough for you

makes it all worthwhile

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]
