Rookie Blue (2010–2015): Season 2, Episode 10 - Best Laid Plans - full transcript

(siren wailing)

This is 1504, en route to intercept.

(dispatcher on radio) Copy, 1504.

- Hope you're enjoying this.
- Yeah. Why is that?

Oh, me and you, driving fast,
chasing bad guys.

This really might be the last time
we do this together.

Oh, you miss me already.
That's sweet.

You're probably not even gonna go.

All talk and no action.

You want action?

Okay, no, what I want
is to catch this guy.



And you know what?
If he's supposed to be on Route 9,

we should've seen him by now.

Unless he changed his plan.

That does happen, just not to you.

Huh.

(tires skid)

(siren whoops)

(steam hissing)

This is 1504. We got an 11-80,

Route 9, north of Exit 56.

(Andy) Looks like it rolled, but--

- (gunshots)
- (gasps)

Down! Down! Down! Down!

- (panting)
- You all right?



Yeah.

Well, you said you wanted action.

1504, shots fired. Repeat--shots fired.

Route 9, north of Exit 56.

Request immediate backup.

(dispatcher) 10-4. All units...

- Sam, somebody's in the car.
- 1504 heard shots fired.

Route 9, north of Exit 56.

Available units, please respond.

(woman) Oh, my God.

(groans)

Ma'am, are you okay?

Yeah, I'm okay. I'm okay.

It's just--I don't know
what happened. I just--

You've been in a car accident.
Do you remember getting hit?

No, not really.

I was--I was driving,
and a car came flying around--

around the bend,
and into my lane and--

Okay. Do you know your name?

Yeah.

Leslie Atkins.

I'm--I'm fine, though.
I'm fine. I'm just--

So we gotta get her out of there,
all right?

- Okay.
- Okay, I just--um, I need help,

'cause, um, I'm pinned under this...

Okay, yep.

Okay.

Uh, Sam?

Oh, my God. Oh, my God.

It's okay. Just relax. Don't worry.
It's gonna be fine.

Dispatch, we need EMS.

Got one victim,
conscious and breathing,

pinned inside her car,

serious laceration on her right leg.

(trunk latch clanks)

(dispatcher) Copy that, 1504.

Working on getting you EMS and Fire.

What do you mean, "working on it"?

(Andy) How bad is it?

Uh, you know, it's pretty--
it's pretty, um--

It's--It's not that bad.

Wow. You're a really terrible liar.

Uh, let's just say it's definitely
gonna leave a mark.

Step one--examine the wound,

make sure there's
no obvious dirt or debris.

Ow! My--Sorry. Okay?

Leslie, here's what's gonna happen.

I'm gonna wait until my partner shows up,
we're gonna wrap this up,

and then the medics
from the Fire Department

are gonna come here
and get you out of here.

Does that sound good?

Yeah, that sounds great.

McNally.

Great.

How's she doing?

Okay, laceration's deep.

I think her leg might be broken,
but it's fairly clean.

We got another problem.

They got a high-rise fire
on East Lakeshore.

All fire and medics
in the zone are there.

What about us?

They're sending units from District 3.

That's over 20 minutes away.

I mean, the girl's leg
is bleeding like crazy.

McNally, you've been trained.

You know what to do.
Get pressure on the wound,

patch it up to stem the bleeding,

and do what you gotta do
to keep her calm and conscious

until the medics get here.
Okay? All right?

Yes.

Where are you going?

The debris goes
about a hundred yards up.

That's where the shots came from.

I'm gonna have a look.

Here's the bag.

Okay.

Change of plans.

What are you talking about?
(panting)

Don't worry.

It's gonna be fine.

(police radio chatter)

(Andy) This is all wrong.
What are we even doing here?

What is wrong with it?

It's a studio, great neighborhood.

It's, most importantly,
in your price range.

Yeah, it's facing north.
It's not bright enough.

You know, this isn't just a condo
I'm buying, Traci, it's my future,

and my future needs
a lot of natural light.

(scoffs) It doesn't even have parking.

- You don't even have a car.
- Future me does.

Is future you hooking up
with Sam Swarek?

Inappropriate.

You knew it was
gonna come up eventually.

Luke and I just broke up.

Yeah, over a month ago,

and I know you're still in mourning,

but sometimes the best way
to get over somebody

is to get under somebody else.

Again, completely inappropriate.

He's not your training officer anymore.

No way.

Okay, those are not in my plans,

and I'm still a rookie.

And, you know, just getting out
of this relationship, I...

gotta lie low
and get my act together.

How long's that gonna take?

I promise if anything happens,

- you'll be the first to know.
- Good,

especially if you want to see
that bright future of yours.

(laughs) Okay,
we gotta get outta here.

We have three more places
to look at before shift starts.

They're all facing south.

One of those places is
gonna be my new home.

- Really?
- Mm-hmm.

What makes you so sure?

Just have a feeling
this is gonna be a good day.

(inhales sharply)

2 minutes, 30 seconds.

I can see the time. Don't need
you to keep reminding me.

Is that our game console?

It's my game console.

Well, you're erasing
all my high scores.

We're just using it as a prop.

I'm teaching Dov to defuse an IED
using a controlled blast.

Oh. Fun.

Sue doesn't think I can do it,

but I've already grounded,
the C-4 is in place,

and I got the detonator.

Good. Now you just have to secure
the det before you're timed out.

Oh, boom. You're done.

(mouth full) But I still
have two minutes.

You put the detonator
in your mouth.

If it sparks, it's got enough charge
to blow off your face.

And I would hate it if something
happened to this face.

(chuckles)

(console beeps)

Oh, it's the remote detonator.

I guess you're both dead.

(chuckles)

(Sam humming a tune)

Can't say I miss wearing one of those.

Well, that's 'cause you never
made it look as good as I do.

Oh.

Flattered as I am, uh, tell me
you didn't come down here

just to watch me suit up.

What do you know
about James Brennan?

- Jamie Brennan?
- Mm-hmm.

Forget it, man.
He's out of the life,

has been for years.

It's all about the wife and the kid

and the two-car garage in Brampton.

Not anymore.

Wife and daughter were killed
in a car accident two months ago.

Intel says Jamie's not doing so well.

And you think now might be
a good time to try to work him?

Sammy, this guy is an enforcer.
He's a serious player.

This might be our only chance.

I'm, uh, putting together a team of guys
who know the case.

(clears throat) When?

- Couple weeks.
- A couple weeks?

Got a guy who can make an introduction,

get you in the inside, working for him.

We'll take it from there.

And here's me just getting used
to sleeping in my own bed again.

As good as you think
it makes you look,

uniform's a straitjacket for you.

Okay, well, I'm gonna
let you think about it.

(overlapping conversations)

Officer Nash.

Detective Barber.

Didn't see your car
in the parking lot.

Thought you called in sick
after your big game last night.

What, me? Never.
No, I just dropped it off in the shop

for a little--little tuneup.

What? Stella's feeling
a little under the weather?

No, I just thought
I'd get her shipshape

in case I, you know, sell her.

What are you talking about?
That car's your baby.

It's just a car.

Besides, why drive a chick magnet

when you already have
the woman of your dreams?

Very smooth, Detective.

Oh, you see that? I just exude cool.

I don't need a hot sports car.

You know, if you have to point it out,
it's a lot less cool.

Y-You're right.

(laughs)

- Hey.
- Hey.

So you and Sue seem pretty happy.

Yeah, we are.
She's, uh--She's great.

It's good. It's good,

you know, the fact that she's ETF
doesn't make you feel uncomfortable.

I mean, that's--that's
something, you know.

Nope. Like I said,
she's great.

Dov.

Look, about what happened,

I just want to be clear.

What do you mean?

You don't remember?

Why am I not surprised?
You were totally high,

and it's not like you meant
what you said.

Of course not.

Let's just forget it happened.

Okay.

That's a good plan.

She's lifted six purses
in the last two weeks,

so when you bring her in,
keep your hands on your wallets.

Moving on.

I spoke to headquarters this morning
about the new squad cars.

(Noelle) Yes!
Bring on the equalizers.

Forget about the, uh, equalizers.

They say it's not
in the budget this year.

- What?
- I know.

It means that we're gonna be driving
the same smelly, broke-ass cars

for the next year or two.

So serve, protect, and drive careful.

They gotta last.

(overlapping conversations)

Hey, uh...

Looks like I'm with Oliver,
and you have 1507 with Dov.

Yeah, can you switch with me?
I want to--

- I want to ride with Oliver.
- Are you sure?

You know you're gonna have
to buy him lunch, right?

Yeah, I know. I know.

And listen to those CDs
of his cousin's blues band?

Yeah? So? I like them.
They're bluesy.

All right. Hey, I'm riding with you.
Gail wants to switch.

Ah, great. We can go to that restaurant
with the bacon-flavored curly fries.

Dude, yes.

(Oliver) Dude.

(helicopter hovering)

That your new place?

Yeah. I'm trying to decide
between these two.

I still think this one
feels way more me, though.

I know that building.
It used to be a toilet factory.

Well, it's not anymore.
It's actually very nice.

- It's comfortable, quiet--
- If you got any problems,

just take the back off
and rattle the chain.

Anyways, I'm going to the bank
tomorrow morning.

- Mm-hmm.
- First-time buyer,

so I get a 4.5% fixed rate
on a 20-year mortgage.

20 years?

What, you think I should do 25?

No, it's just a hell of a commitment.

Well, I'm obviously not
gonna stay there for 20 years.

You know, stay for five,
wait till it appreciates,

flip it, then move to another
neighborhood, do the same thing,

and eventually I'll have my great place
in The Beaches.

- Ah, The Beaches.
- Or Bloor West.

You know, I'm flexible.

5-year plan, 10-year plan.

You got it all figured out.

Yeah. Plan's good.

I bet you were one of those kids
that saved her Halloween candy

and made it last all year, huh?

What, and you were the kid
that ate all his candy in one night?

No, just the good stuff.
Then I threw the rest out.

See, you can't do that.
You gotta save the good stuff.

Save it? What for?

- For what?
- I don't know. Later.

(police radio chatter)

(crow caws)

(exhales deeply)

Okay, so I just need you to look up.

What are you doing?

Listen, you might have a concussion,

so I just need to make sure
that your pupils are equal

and reacting to light.

I just have a couple questions, okay?

- Okay.
- Okay.

What do you do for a living?

I'm a musician.
I'm a songwriter.

Really? Like on the radio?

Not all songwriters
are on the radio.

Oh. I guess.

I have a bunch of demos.

Nothing's 100% finished yet.

I don't want to put anything out
until it's ready, you know?

Yeah, that's totally understandable.

Okay, I'm gonna try
to clean this up.

It might hurt a little bit.
Gotta get the glass out, okay?

Okay.

All right, so, um,
what else do you have to do?

You know, what's left?

I just have to do
a couple more tracks...

- Mm-hmm.
- and then I'm finished

probably, like,
in the next two months or so.

Really? That's right
around the corner.

I know.

Yeah.

I have this really amazing
bottle of champagne

just sitting in my apartment,
waiting for me,

to celebrate when I'm done.

Well, that's gonna taste great.

Yeah.

Why is it bleeding through?

Uh...I don't know.

- Wasn't it supposed to stop?
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.

No, I have to wrap it
a little bit tighter.

Oh, my--Oh, my God.

Okay, okay, okay,
here's what's gonna happen--

Just relax, okay?
I'm gonna wrap a little bit tighter,

and then if that doesn't work, uh...

I'm gonna put a tourniquet on it
and cut the blood flow, okay?

- No, I don't--I don't want--
- No, no, no, it's okay...

I don't want you
to touch it anymore.

I just want you to leave it.

It's not gonna be long now.

I promise. It's okay.

(children shouting indistinctly)

(woman) Thank God you're here.

He shot Ricky.

This is Partytown.
This isn't supposed to happen.

Just, uh, start at the beginning,

and tell us what happened.

Well, I was getting changed
out back, you know,

trying to keep the magic alive,

when, uh,
I saw the office door was open,

and I poked my head in,

and there was a guy
digging through the desk.

He took the cash box--
over $4,000--

- and then he shot Ricky.
- I guess I surprised him.

I'd be surprised,
big chicken coming at me.

Before I could say anything,

he took a shot at me, I fell back,
and he ran out the back door.

Did you see what he looked like?

Hard to tell.

I had the chicken head on.

Uh, white, 30s maybe.

It happened pretty fast.

I'm used to getting kicked,
and I'm used to getting punched,

but this one...

kinda took me by surprise.

All right, all right,
everybody follow me.

It's okay. We just need to close
things down for a little while.

Keep going.
All the--All right.

Why would somebody shoot
the mascot at a kids' playland?

That's like shooting your nana.

Your nana dressed up
in a giant chicken suit?

You know what? Never mind.
I don't want to know.

Oh, excuse me, ma'am?
Are these your kids?

We'll need you
to take them outside.

What the hell is going on?

There's been an incident.
We need to clear everybody out.

I would love to, believe me.

It's my son's sixth birthday party.

We have 18 kids here
eating and puking

and hiding and screaming.

This place is pretty awesome.

I mean--(clears throat)
You know, for kids.

Yeah, it's chaos.
People started screaming.

The kids all took off.
We're still missing two.

What are the boys' names?

- Elliot and...Nathan.
- Good.

They're little jackasses,
the both of them.

I should never have let them come.

I mean, they don't listen to anybody,

not even their own mothers.
It's not just me.

Okay, look, I'm a dad.
I--I get this.

All right, kids come
into a place like this,

and their brains turn
to cotton candy, right?

I'm sure that they're
just hiding somewhere.

- Okay.
- And what I want you to do

is take Maria out to the van

- and wait with the other kids.
- Okay.

Okay, we will find the boys.

- Okay.
- Okay?

- Thank you.
- Yes. Okay.

Okay, pain-in-the-ass little kids aside,

we gotta remember
what we're doing here,

and we've gotta talk to witnesses,

take statements.

All right, see if somebody saw
who shot the bird man

right...in the pecker.

There's video surveillance.

It's ancient,
but it might have something.

Good. Start there.

See if there's cameras
outside the office.

What about the two kids?

You and me, we'll fan out, okay,
see if we can flush 'em loose.

Okay, Peck, you're gonna
pull video with Epstein.

Uh, actually, sir, if you don't mind,

I'd like to help find those boys.

I mean, after all,
they are just children,

and they are our future.

Okay. Whatever. Go. Go.

Okay.

Go.

(police radio chatter)

Well, it looks to me
like our guy came in

though the back door
by the office,

but Janice the manager claims that
that door is permanently locked.

Yeah, well, I just spoke
to three different people

who all said that they saw
a red hatchback peel out

of the parking lot right after
the shots were fired.

Getaway car. Good enough for me.
Let's get a BOLO out,

sweep the neighborhood,
see what we see.

What, you think
he's still in the area?

Well, remember,
most armed robberies happen

within 10 blocks
of the bad guy's house.

- They hit places they know.
- That's very stupid.

Or they haven't heard
the expression

"Don't shoot where you eat."

(woman) Elliot?

Yoo-hoo! Children?

- Nathan?
- We're the police.

Get your damn asses out here.

Hard to believe that didn't work.

What's up with you and Dov?

What? Nothing's up.

What do you mean?

I don't know. I mean...

ever since you guys
worked the gang case,

you've barely spoken
to each other.

I mean, you've been weird
with each other all week.

Yeah, Dov's weird with everybody.

It's genetic.

All right, fine. I'll just ask him.

Chris, it's--(sighs)

It's fine.

Well, no, I mean, it's not fine.

You're his roommate, too.
You pay rent.

He's not allowed
to be a jerk to you.

Well, he's not being a jerk.
He's just...

(sighs) He's--
Don't ask him, okay?

He's just feeling a little stupid.
It was nothing.

Stupid about what?

Stupid about taking a bunch
of painkillers on the stakeout,

saying a bunch of stupid things.

It's not a big deal.

What are you talking about?

It was funny, all right?

He said some stuff.
He pledged his love.

- It was ridiculous.
- His love?

For you?

It--It didn't mean anything.

- (thumping)
- (woman) Come on, kids.

(police radio chatter)

Peck here.

We found one of those
sticky little sweethearts.

Saw an old pal of yours this morning.

- Who?
- Donovan Boyd.

(scoffs) What'd I do wrong this time?

He's setting up a UC operation--

cover apartment, new identity,
whole nine yards.

Cover apartment, huh?

This one is off the grid.

Only contact is with Boyd
and the team.

Yeah, for how long?

Weeks, months, maybe longer.

I go in three weeks.

Wh--That's it? I mean,

You're not even gonna think about it?

What is there to think about?

(Sam) Oh! Looks like
Christmas came early.

Still warm.

What, you think he ran out of gas?

Uh, no. I just think
he's your type of guy,

man with a plan.

Ha.

There's only one camera out back,

but it's wide-angle,

so even though he parked
in a corner of the lot...

we got him.

Hey, Epstein, that's great.
Good work.

So can you do that thingy
where you zoom in

and you clean up the image?

You know that doesn't
actually work, right?

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Here. Best I can do.

Whitish-gray guy, medium build,

with a blurry complexion.

- (cell phone rings)
- Okay.

(ring, beep)

Sammy, Sammy, brother,
what's going on?

Uh, well, we found the car.

He ditched it over on Whitestone.

Glove box is empty,
and the plates are gone.

So no way to ID him.
That's smart.

Yeah, my guess is either
he had a partner or a second car,

- and he made the switch.
- Great. So we're back to zero.

Sir, you should see this.

Sammy, we got a bigger problem.

Shooter's got a kid with him.

(siren wailing)

His name's Elliot Walker,
6 years old.

He was at a birthday party
at Partytown Amusements.

The short answer is, no,
we don't have a better picture.

We're getting one
from the school database.

The mother for the child
is on her way down here right now.

Elliot was taken at 1447.
That's less than an hour ago.

The bad news is
it's gonna get dark soon,

so we gotta work fast.

Worse, the bad guy ditched the car,
stripped the plates, the VIN,

so we do not know who or what
we're looking for yet.

Detective Barber is running with this.

Any help he needs,
you give it to him.

Mom's here.
She knows who took the kid.

It's my ex, Vince.
It's--It's Elliot's father.

He's been fighting me for custody
for the last year,

but he is a drug addict.

God, I don't want him
anywhere near my son.

Elliot and I, we started again,
you know?

And I have it all planned out.

I just needed
a little bit more money.

We're moving out east.
We're going to my--

Any idea where
he might take your son?

He was staying at a halfway house
in the East End.

Um...Sunrise?

He wouldn't have taken him there.
No, there's no way.

- Not even Vince is that stupid.
- What about family?

All of his family's still
in Collingwood, I think.

Okay, Tammy,
does Vince have a record?

Assault, possession.

(Tammy) The court told me
it was safe to let him see my son.

Robbery makes sense now.

Yeah, parental abduction,

and dad's taking off with the kid,

needed cash for the trip.

When the dad's got a record and he's armed,

is that enough for an AMBER Alert?

You know, let me get on the horn

with, uh, Collingwood PD
and the OPP to cover the freeways.

Yeah, I'll get our people to do spot checks
on all the other routes out of the city.

Very good.

One chicken suit, returned.

Now you know what to wear
Saturday night.

Afraid we have to keep the head
for evidence. Sign here.

It true the same guy that shot me
is the one who took the kid?

Looks like.

But it's his father, right?

So the kid's not in danger or anything?

We hope not, but he does
have a history of violence.

And he did shoot you.

You remember that, bird boy?

That's the kid's mom over there?

Yeah, that's her.

She's terrified she's never
gonna see her son again...

unless we get a lead.

(Tammy) So what--
what happened...

Traci...

This is form B11.

You were supposed
to fill out form B14.

- (mouths words)
- B14?

- Yeah.
- Right. That one is much longer.

I'm sorry, Ricky, but we're gonna have
to ask you a few more questions,

a lot more.

(Sam) As far as anyone's concerned,
it's a standard seat belt check.

Wave 'em in.
Get an eyeball on the driver.

We don't know what he's driving,
so we gotta check everybody.

(Andy) All right.

- Hi.
- (man) Hello.

Okay, go ahead. Thank you.

So this undercover operation with Boyd,

I mean, is it dangerous?

Well, they don't usually do deep cover
on people with parking tickets,

unless you got a lot of 'em.

Then it's a joint meter maid/ETF thing.

Why? You want to come with me?

Just thought maybe
you could use the backup.

I heard last time
you were in deep cover,

you got chased down
and tackled by a girl.

Overeager rookie.

Didn't want to make her look bad
on her first day.

- Hi.
- (woman) What happened?

- All right, you can go.
- Folks, how you doing?

Got your seat belt on there?
Seat belt?

So what's Frank think about this?

I haven't told him yet.

Oh, really are a team player.

What, was I supposed to check
with you before I said yes?

You got your 5-, 10-, 20-, 50-year plan.

That works for you.
I'm the opposite.

Opportunity comes along--
I want it, I take it.

Simple as that.

Oh, well, congratulations
on being so simple.

Thank you.

- Hi.
- Hi. Something wrong, officer?

Not for you.
Have a good day.

Okay, thanks.

Okay, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
No, no, no, no.

It was just supposed to be a sip.

It's water.

Water's good for you.
I don't drink enough water.

You're not even supposed to have
anything to drink.

You're not supposed to have
liquids before surgery.

And how long have I--am I gonna
be in the hospital for?

I don't know.

Banjo.

- What?
- My stupid cat.

If I'm gonna be in the hospital,
I need someone to feed him.

Okay. You want me
to call someone?

My family's all out west.

1754 Boswell.
I'm in the annex.

There's a cupboard
to the right of the fridge.

- His food's in there.
- Okay.

Careful, okay?

He's kind of a jerk sometimes.

That's okay. I'm used to those.

(siren wailing)

I don't want to lose my job.

You're a giant chicken
that germy kids punch for fun.

Believe me, the fall from grace
will not be very far.

If you know anything about
Elliot Walker being taken,

- you have to tell us.
- No, I swear,

I didn't know
that was gonna happen.

But you knew something
was gonna happen, right?

Look, if you tell us now,
we might be able to help you.

Otherwise, it looks really bad for you.

(sighs)

This guy came in a few days ago,

said his kid was gonna be
at a birthday party

and his ex wouldn't let him talk to him.

I mean, he just wanted to talk to him
for a couple of minutes.

He showed me a family photo,
so I knew he wasn't a perv.

Oh, you think you could just
tell everything you need to know

by looking at a photo?

What did he need you for?

To leave the back door open
so no one would see him coming in.

He--He paid me 100 bucks.

And then he robbed the office.
He shot you.

Well, that's sounds like
a terrific plan, Ricky.

He wasn't supposed to rob anything.

I saw a guy in the office.

I thought maybe someone got in
'cause I left the door unlocked.

Guess I surprised him.

But you didn't recognize him?

I can't see anything
in that damn chicken head.

Besides, you guys said
he took off in a red hatchback.

Dude who came to see me
wasn't driving one of those.

What was he driving?

(police radio chatter)

(Oliver) Okay.

(Chris) Bye, sir.

(Dov) That was Traci.
They got a lead on the car.

They think he's driving a maroon SUV.

All right. Okay.
Well, we're gettin' somewhere.

SUV's one of the most common
cars on the road.

Don't be a buzz-kill.
It's a lead.

Now you ladies keep an eye out.

I'm gonna go see if I can find
some bushes need watering.

Um, pretty sure everything's
frozen this time of year.

I'm going pee, Diaz.

I'm gonna go pee in the bushes.
(chuckles)

(sniffs)

Do you like Gail?

What?

What happened on the stakeout?

What did she say?

Is it true?
You said you're in love with her.

I don't know.
I was totally high.

- Did you kiss her?
- No.

Yes. I--

Shut up, man.
Don't try and talk this thing down

and laugh like everything's okay.

I thought you two were
just finally gettin' along,

with the frozen drinks
and the video games.

But it makes sense now.
You were waiting for your opportunity.

No, Chris,
I wouldn't do that to--

Just shut up, Dov.
Just shut the hell up.

(brakes squeal)

(Chris) SUV, fits the description.

1504, we got a maroon SUV
avoiding the checkpoint.

(Dov) He just turned down Route 9,
headed in your direction.

Copy that.

Hold you position
in case he doubles back.

We're on our way.

We can't get more units.

The fire on Lakeshore's got priority.

They found him,

Walker's SUV--
avoiding a checkpoint, Route 9.

They're boxing him in.

(siren wailing)

(tires skid)

(Sam) This is 1504.

We got an 11-80.
Route 9, north of Exit 56.

It's a car accident, major damage.

Yeah, I know. I'll check it out.
You guys stay here.

(Sam) 1504, shots fired.
Repeat, shots fired.

Route 9, north of Exit 56.
Request immediate backup.

What are you guys waiting for?
Let's go. Let's go.

(dispatcher on radio)
...1504 has shots fired.

Route 9, north of Exit 56.
Available units, please respond.

(Leslie groaning)

Oh, my God.

Ma'am, you okay?

I'm okay.

(sirens wailing)

(sirens stop)

Walker's gone.

Clipped another car
about a hundred yards back,

blew his tires, and ditched it here.

He shot at you?

Cover fire when we pulled up.

Gave himself a head start.

Best I can tell,

he and the kid went that-a-way
towards those woods.

That was less than 10 minutes ago.
They can't be far.

What about Andy?

She's down the road
with a vic in the other car,

keeping her stable
until medics arrive.

(Sam) McNally, are you good?

Copy. Yeah,
everything's under control.

All right, let's go.

(guns unholster)

(birds squawking)

Should we call ETF, wait for backup?

We are backup.

Walker probably just wants
to get away with his son,

but he might be trying
to punish his ex.

You think he could hurt the kid?

It happens.

Fresh tracks. Two sets.

They're, uh--They're going
in different directions.

Maybe they got separated.

Maybe. All right, Diaz, Epstein,
you go that way.

- Stay in radio contact.
- (Chris) Yes, sir.

Chris...

Trail splits. I'm going this way.

(dispatcher on radio)
1504, Rig 16

is five minutes out
from your location.

Okay, that's the Fire Department.

Okay? They're gonna
get you out of here.

It's all right.
It's gonna be okay.

Come on, Leslie.
Just stay with me, all right?

Just, like, one more minute.
You're gonna be home soon,

and I'm gonna be listening
to your songs on the radio.

No, you won't. (sighs)

I'm a waiter...

waitress...

server,
whatever you want to call it.

Really? I mean...

you've been writing music
and recording demos.

Just a couple more months, right?

(crying) Do you know how long
I've been saying that?

"Not now. I just have to wait
until the plan's just right.

Just a couple more songs.
Just a couple more tracks."

That bottle of champagne
I told you about?

I bought it six years ago.

I mean, what the hell
have I been saving it for?

Later.

You'll drink it later.

(sighs) Right.

Um, no liquids before surgery, right?

Come on, stay awake. Okay?

There's no way Walker's getting
very far without a vehicle.

Another two or three miles,
these woods meet the highway.

He could carjack somebody.

He's already
shot one person today.

(birds chirping,
helicopter approaching)

Epstein.
I think I found something.

(Sam) 10-4.
We'll be right there.

Epstein, what's your 20?

You should've left me alone.

Epstein, what's your 20?

You don't want to do this.

- (Chris) Don't move, Walker!
- This is not gonna go your way.

Put it down!
Put the gun down now!

- (Dov) Put the gun down.
- This is Diaz. We found Walker.

- We have a 10-33.
- Shut up! Put the gun down!

He can't do that, not as long as
you're pointing your gun at me.

I just want to be with my son, okay?
I love him.

I just want some time alone with him,
just the two of us.

I'm only gonna ask you
one more time.

Put the gun down,
or I will shoot you!

(Oliver) Walker, it's over, all right?
Just put it down.

Walker! We found Elliot!

- Daddy! I want to go home!
- Elliot? Are you okay, buddy?

He's fine. He just didn't want
to play the game anymore.

Vincent, do your son a favor

and show him you know how
to do the right thing.

(Oliver) Put the gun down now,
and get on your knees!

Slowly.

(Chris) Down. Down.
Give me your hands.

Elliot, I'm sorry! Okay, buddy?
Daddy loves you!

(Oliver) You're good. Let's get
this kid into the warm.

Epstein.

(engine crackling,
hissing and popping)

Why does it smell
like a campfire in here?

(Leslie coughing)

We can't wait anymore.
I gotta get you out of here.

I'm gonna get this
underneath you, okay,

so we can make enough room

so you can pull yourself
out of there.

Leslie, I'm gonna need your help.

(fire crackling)

Just hold on. Just hold on.

- (coughing) I can't breathe.
- It's okay. It's okay.

- I can't breathe.
- Okay, Leslie.

(Andy panting)
Come on. Okay.

When I say, "Go,"
you have to pull yourself up

no matter how much it hurts, okay?
All right. Okay.

- (Leslie coughing)
- Okay.

Hold on!

- Aah!
- All right, go!

- Go! Go, go, go!
- (gasps)

(panting) Okay. Come on.
Come on. Ready?

Just grab--grab...

Aah! (groaning)

- Go!
- Aah!

(panting)

All right. Okay?

- (groaning)
- Okay. Okay.

(both panting)

Like I said...

no problem.

- (Sam) Shaw.
- What?

- Take Elliot.
- All right, come here, Elliot.

Go on.

(Oliver) Hi, Elliot.
This is my friend Casey.

(radio chatter)

Andy!

Andy!

Sam!

I'm okay.

I got her out, like,
just before it went up.

If I had known the car
was gonna catch on fire--

Ah, it's okay.

Even the medic
said she's gonna be fine.

- You should've radioed.
- You were miles out.

And, you know, car was on fire.

I had that whole thing to deal with.

- Uh-huh.
- Did you get the boy?

They found him, yeah.

Good.

Pretty intense out there, huh?

Just glad it worked out.

Chris...

I'm sorry.

Look, I don't want to talk right now.

And I'm not gonna say
everything's okay

just 'cause you almost died...
again.

So it's that last button
right there, Elliot.

- (click)
- And look.

Isn't that cool? Watch this.

(siren whooping)

(laughs) Okay. Is that amazing?

Now if you wanted it to--
Oh, here we go, little man.

- (gasps) Hey, baby!
- Mommy!

Hi, sweetheart!
Come here! Come here!

Hi, baby! Hi, baby! Oh!

Ohh! (sniffles)

- (kisses) You okay?
- (Elliot) Yeah, I'm okay.

You're okay. Okay.
You want to go home, baby?

- Yes.
- Yeah?

Let's go home, buddy. Oh!

(Jerry) All right, let's get you home.

Chris, wait up!

What's wrong?

You kissed my best friend.

Whoa, Chris,
it was not even like that.

What--You know what? Save it.

'Cause I don't care
how high Dov was.

I know you, Gail,
and I know there is no way

you would let anyone
get close enough to do anything

unless you wanted them to.

I gotta go.

(sighs)

- (zips up bag)
- McNally.

Hey. How's it goin'?
Hell of a day, huh?

Hey, the hospital called.
They need your notes

for the postmortem
on the woman in the car.

What?

Atkins? Leslie Atkins.

Yeah. Leslie's alive.

Seriously, she's fine.
I got her out in time.

The medic said she'd be fine.

She passed about 20 minutes ago.

She had an embolism, got into
her bloodstream on impact,

hit her lungs, and that was it.

I got her out.

I mean, she--she was fine.

Uh...

Hey, I'm sure that you did
everything you could.

You couldn't have known.
It happens sometimes.

You do what you can,
and it looks like you got 'em,

and...then you don't.

(whispers) Yeah.

Um...

Yeah.

I--Can you tell Traci
I'll catch up with her later?

Uh, where you going?

I gotta go feed a jerky cat.

(Banjo meows)

Aw. Somebody's hungry.

(continues meowing)

(lock turns)

Hi. Come here.
