The Rookie

Yeah! Come on!

Oh, hi. Hi.

Hey.

Oh. I love your music.

Thank... Thank you.

H-How are you...

Detectives.

Oh.

You're here.

I live here.

I went to bed at 1:00, and you still weren't home.

Oh, I came home around then.

I must have just missed you.

Trivia went late.

And how was trivia?

Amazing.

I came up with this obscure fact about Josephine Baker,

so I'm feeling pretty good about myself.

You are such a smooth liar.

And I guess I shouldn't be surprised.

All that undercover training.

I'm not lying.

I saw Tim drop you off.

Thank God.

I am so over coming up with cover stories.

Okay. Why the big secret?

You're both single.

I mean, we're just keeping it under wraps

until we figure things out.

Well, if you ever need me to, uh, clear out for the night,

you know, play my music real loud, just let me know.

We're not sleeping together.

Why not?

We're taking it slow.

We want to do this right.

So you're not sure how you feel?

No. I know exactly how I feel.

I mean, this is the most amazing relationship

I've been in since ever.

Okay. And you're waiting why, again?

Morning.

Morning.

Um... tonight is the night.

Oh. Really?

Yes, really.

My place or yours?

Jealous dog or nosy roommate?

Tamara knows.

What? You told her?

No, she has eyes. I didn't have to.

But she is staying at her friend's tonight, so...

Sgt. Grey: Hey. Coincidence. I was just gonna call you.

Lopez needs Aaron's help on a surveillance,

so I was thinking,

why don't you two ride together today?

- Great. - Yeah, whatever you need, sir.

Great.

Mm, this is gonna be awkward.

It doesn't have to be.

We've ridden together hundreds of times.

Never as a couple.

On the streets, we won't be.

So are you telling me you're not gonna be

thinking about tonight?

Not at all.

Thank you. Me neither.

I can't tell you about the Elijah investigation.

I know.

I just need to make sure someone is on it.

Wesley, a major drug kingpin just used the LAPD

to take out two of his rivals.

Quite a few someones are on it.

He's not done with me or Angela.

I know. The lawsuits made that very clear.

The lawsuits were a game.

He doesn't care about her badge or my family's money.

He wants to torture us.

And then quite possibly kill us.

That does not change the fact

that we cannot have this conversation.

Are you hassling Harper about Elijah?

No, I'm trusting the process.

I said nothing. I was never here.

Good.

Remember, the nanny's staying late.

Date night.

How could I forget?

So, who are we surveilling?

His name's Serrano Rivers.

I got a tip from a CI that he's running guns.

It's not enough for a warrant, but...

But maybe he'll screw up and we can catch it.

It's weak, but it's all I got.

- Let's do it. - All right.

I could tell Grey that I got food poisoning.

Just to get out of riding with me?

Yeah, I mean, I get the day off,

we avoid all this weirdness.

Wins all around.

You're overthinking this.

We leave our personal life at the door, just like always.

Oh.

And you can just shut it off?

At 7:59, I'm your girlfriend.

At 8:01, I'm... I'm your what? Your subordinate?

Yeah. Really? Hmm.

What?

My duty belt. My Taser is on the wrong side.

Normally, you would be all over me for something like this.

- You did that on purpose? - Mm-hmm.

You don't do Tim Tests. I do Tim Tests.

Well, that's 'cause this isn't a Tim Test.

It's a Lucy Lesson.

And admit it, you are taking it easy on me.

We're not even on duty yet, and our dynamic has changed.

Get in the car.

It's called a shop.

You wanted to see us?

A prisoner's en route to St. Stephen Hospital.

He's donating a kidney.

And you want us to help stand guard?

The guy must be pretty bad

if the sheriffs can't handle it themselves.

It's Oscar Hutchinson.

You got to be kidding me!

Wait, who's Oscar Hutchinson?

He is the worst person in the world.

I'm sorry. My... My brain broke a little.

Did you say he's donating a kidney?

Yes, his daughter, Ashley, had a kidney infection

which resulted in end-state renal disease.

So our Oscar Hutchinson is donating a kidney

just out of the kindness of his heart?

I don't buy it either. He has some play here.

Hospital does have lower security than the prison does.

And all the drugs and sharp objects he could want.

So round up whoever you need, okay?

Don't let your guard down for a second.

All right. Let's split up.

Greg, Emma, you guys set up at the nurses' station.

I want three of you on the north hallway,

three of you on the south hallway.

Hospital security already has the staircases covered.

Thanks.

All of this for one man?

Yes.

One man convicted of murder and multiple violent felonies.

One man who has escaped a prison convoy,

stabbed our friend Wesley, and escaped federal agents.

Now, he is selfish, amoral, brutal, unethical,

ruthless, unconscionable, and selfish.

Already said selfish.

Yes, I did, because he really, really is.

Lambert, Juarez. Anything we need to know?

Nothing out of the ordinary for Oscar.

He already hit on three nurses

and picked his handcuffs with a pen he stole.

I hear you got a history.

That's an understatement.

Hi, John. Uh, what, no get-well gift?

I was hoping for chocolates.

You can't eat them anyway... too close to surgery.

Well, there's teddy bears, balloons.

You are aware of my heroic and unselfish act here, yes?

The last thing you are is selfless.

This is all a ploy.

We're simply here to make sure you don't succeed.

He only sees the bad in people.

Whereas I, on the other hand, only see the good.

And you are looking very good to me.

You didn't tell me you had such a sexy rookie, John.

Bailey must be jealous.

Okay. Maybe quit staring.

You're freaking me out.

She's freaking me out.

You're gonna die.

Nice. Nice try.

I've been threatened by girls a lot tougher than you

- and taller. - I-It is not a threat.

Death is coming for him.

All right. Okay, she's for real?

When it comes to Officer Juarez,

I've come to trust her instincts.

If she says you're gonna die, I-I'd be worried.

Well, hell, we're all gonna die, right?

Yeah, some of us sooner than others.

Okay. Can we swap Harper back in?

'Cause she's a lot less creepy.

We're not here for your comfort, Oscar.

We're here to arrest you when you try to escape.
