- John Nolan: I know we said we'd go this weekend together and get your stuff. I thought I''d surprise you.
- Bailey Nune: Oh, thank you. Now, let's put it back in storage.
- John Nolan: Yeah. Whoa, what? I got your big hug chair.
- Bailey Nune: I don't want that thing hugging me, it's hideous.
- John Nolan: oh, it's not... .*that* hideous.
- Bailey Nune: No, really, it is. Especially next to all your furniture. You have such good taste.
- John Nolan: Yeah, especially in fiancés.
- John Nolan: Oh.
- [kisses Nolan]
- Bailey Nune: Well, it can go back. But *this* has to stay.
- [pulls a small statue out of a box]
- Bailey Nune: [Nolan takes in a sharp breath]
- Bailey Nune: I mean it.
- John Nolan: [In a slightly sarcastic tone] You don't say.
- Bailey Nune: [breathy laugh] It spent an hour too long in the kiln.
- John Nolan: No, no, it's perfect. This is excellent. It'll live right here. And he will bring us luck.
- [puts the statue on a shelf]
- John Nolan: There. Now, it's our home.
- [a small earthquake shakes the house, but the only thing to fall and break is the statue]
- John Nolan: I'm sure that doesn't mean *anything*. But you never gnome.
- Wesley Evers: The City Attorney's offering to pay you a settlement. You should take it.
- Elijah Stone: You know, I lost everything when I decided to help you get your wife back from La Fiera. You turned me into a pariah. Now I have to start from the bottom. But it's all good. I will win, and the damages will be paid out from everyone's personal accounts. Now, that may not hurt you, Richie Rich. But it most certainly will hurt Nolan and Harper and Grey. Where they gonna find a half a million dollars each, huh? I'll keep coming, adding more of your little friends to my suit. I'll take everything away from you until you say sorry for taking everything away from me.
- Wesley Evers: You want me to apologize? To you?
- Wesley Evers: Something along these lines. In public. And, Counselor, make me believe it.
- Elijah Stone: Hello, Wesley.
- Wesley Evers: Elijah. What, you following me?
- Elijah Stone: Well, I heard you come here every morning.
- Wesley Evers: Well, the best scone in town.
- Elijah Stone: You know, I never would have guessed from your sad, little office or that beater that you drive that you're old-money rich. What's it like having generational wealth?
- Wesley Evers: I don't care about money .I care about justice, the rule of law.
- Elijah Stone: Spoken like someone with a ton of money. Hmm. Well, don't worry. I'll be relieving you of your burden.
- Wesley Evers: It's been nice, but you need to leave. Your lawsuit's malicious. I'm not leaving. This is my spot.
- Elijah Stone: Well, not anymore. Given the fact that you planted evidence on me, are married to a police detective, and have the full force of the D.A.'s office behind you, it's easy to see how you kept your job. My only choice was to file a restraining order against you. The judge granted it. This gentleman here just served you. I'mma be here every day, which means you'd better not be. Wesley.
- Wesley Evers: Take the scone. That's all you're gonna get.
- Celina Juarez: What's a Pitchess motion?
- John Nolan: It's a request to see a cop's personnel file. Everything... IA complaints, even the bogus ones. It's a great way to, uh, block energy. Why don't you go set up the shop. I'll meet you out there.
- Angela Lopez: Hey, union rep. Anything you can do to help?
- John Nolan: Not much I can do about the lawsuit. As far as the Pitchess motion goes, I can call the City Attorney's office right now and make sure they're following POBR on that.
- Angela Lopez: Thanks.
- Nyla Harper: I've been hit with 20 Pitchess motions and never had a judge grant one.
- Angela Lopez: Yeah, but if it is granted, Elijah can use it to support his claims of "violation of civil rights, false arrest by a peace officer with a warrant, racial profiling, civil conspiracy."
- Nyla Harper: This is unbelievable. I mean, the guy is a major drug trafficker
- Angela Lopez: If he thinks he can sue a defense attorney turned prosecutor and win, he doesn't know how badass my husband is in the courtroom.
- Nyla Harper: Damn straight.
- Nyla Harper: We caught a D.B. this morning, a shopkeeper who refused to pay protection money to a street gang called Double R.
- Lucy Chen: Rowena Razors out of Rowena Gardens?
- Angela Lopez: Gang task force doesn't have much on them except their leader, Shana Quelli. She was released from Valley State Prison three months ago. She's been extorting store owners on her turf.
- Nyla Harper: Our victim took a stand, and the Razors made an example out of him.
- Wade Grey: Harper and Lopez need you to infiltrate the gang to get some evidence, murder weapon.
- Angela Lopez: A confession would be best.
- Lucy Chen: Uh... they're not going to let me anywhere near them.
- Nyla Harper: You're U.C. now, right? Gaining access and building trust is the name of the game.
- Lucy Chen: You got it. I'll figure it out.
- Tabin Cordon: She did not call the cops on me. Ma!
- Aaron Thorsen: Hey, hold on. It's... It's alright. Tabin, right? Officer Thorsen. Call me Aaron.
- Tabin Cordon: She's crazy, okay?
- Aaron Thorsen: Your mom didn't call us, okay? But she is worried about you.
- Tabin Cordon: What am I supposed to do? Stay cooped up in here? I-I want to live my life.
- Aaron Thorsen: Right, and she wants you to live a long and good life, too. All moms do. You know, it's just, sometimes, they can trip about everything. Listen. I know how you feel, okay? My mom, she's a piece of work, too. Sometimes I feel like she's the kid and I'm the adult.
- Tabin Cordon: Yeah. Yeah. You know.
- Aaron Thorsen: Right. But you still got to show her respect, okay? No matter how angry you get. When I was your age, I was angry, too. Listen to her, right? If you get upset or whatever, just take a beat before answering. I mean, she changed your diapers, man, okay? You owe her that.
- Tabin Cordon: I hear you.
- Tim Bradford: Anything else bothering you? Kids at school?
- Tabin Cordon: Nah.
- Tim Bradford: You use?
- Tabin Cordon: No, sir.
- Tim Bradford: Good. Any gangs pressuring you to join?
- Tabin Cordon: No, no.
- Aaron Thorsen: Here's my card, alright? It's got my cell on it. Anything stresses you out, you give me a call, okay? But no more slamming these doors. You feel me?
- Tim Bradford: Hello, ma'am. We had a noise complaint. Yelling. Everything okay?
- Althea Cordon: I was just arguing with my son. Ain't no need for the police.
- Aaron Thorsen: Okay, so what's the problem, ma'am?
- Althea Cordon: My son, Tabin.
- Aaron Thorsen: Mm-hmm.
- Althea Cordon: He won't listen. He cuts school. He won't pick up after himself. And the mouth on that boy.
- Aaron Thorsen: And how old's your son?
- Althea Cordon: 15.
- Tim Bradford: He threaten you?
- Althea Cordon: He knows he better not!
- Tim Bradford: Okay. Any drugs, weapons, other criminal behavior?
- Althea Cordon: Tabin? Absolutely not. I see him drifting. He's running the streets instead of doing schoolwork. Told him he's gonna end up like his sister. I already lost one child. I'm not gonna lose another.
- Aaron Thorsen: And let me guess... He didn't want to hear that, huh?
- Althea Cordon: He says I don't know what I'm talking about. Starts yelling and... and slamming doors. I told him, "You break my house, I'mma break your head."
- Tim Bradford: Okay. Well, we can't arrest him if he hasn't committed a crime.
- Althea Cordon: Ain't nobody asking you to do all that. You can't talk to him, put the fear of Jesus in him, help keep him out of trouble? I pay your salaries. You know what? We should defund y'all ass.
- Aaron Thorsen: Look, um, I-I'll talk to him, okay? Is he inside?
- Althea Cordon: Mm-hmm.
- Celina Juarez: What'd they say about the Pitchess motion?
- John Nolan: That Lopez's and Wesley's marriage is going to complicate things. Elijah's gonna try to prove prejudice. He may actually have a case.
- Officer Jan: A C.I. of mine says Double R did it because our victim wouldn't pay up.
- Nyla Harper: Double R?
- Officer Jan: Some new girl gang.
- Angela Lopez: I'm sorry, did he just act like girls aren't dangerous?
