02x16 - The Overnight

[ Man vocalizing in distance ]
I just wanted to give
the judges some happy juice

before we got started.

The world needs
more love, man.

I agree, but meth smoothies
are a felony.

My backpack.
I left it in the green room.

It has my ID in it.

Go get it, Boot.
Meet me down at the shop.

It's the fluffy one.

I'm sorry.

Oh.
Sorry.

Uh, so sorry.

There you are.

Oh, no, I --

No, look, I understand.

Everybody is.
[ Chuckling ] No.

Just before you get in there,
take a deep breath.

No, I'm not --

What?
Sing your heart out,

I'm from Los Angeles.

Are you

There was a very, uh,
sweet woman that [Exhales]

put a sticker on me,

going to sing for us today?

Oh. Uh...

-Yeah.

I'll sing, um, "I-I Never Loved

Good.

Donating blood is bringing back
some complicated memories

of when Henry was born.

He had TOF.

I spent a lot of time
in the hospital banking blood.

I had no idea.

What's TOF?
Tetralogy of Fallot.

It's a heart defect.

Four defects, actually.

It's corrected
by surgery.

Three of them he had
before he was a year old.

Since we share the same
rare blood type,

I donated approximately
16 gallons.

But everything's okay
right now, right?

Oh, yeah. All his checkups
have been fantastic.

Thank God.

[ Whispering ] So,
when are we going out again?

[ Whispering ]
How about this weekend?
[ Normal voice ] I can't.

Um, Oliver's coming, and I'm
gonna take him to Disneyland.

Oh, I could tag along.

Um...
Or not.

It's just -- I only have him
every other weekend, so I...

No need to explain.
How about dinner tonight?

Great.
Yeah, that sounds good.

Make sure you drink

Wait.

Don't freak out.

She's having nightmares
again.

Three nights this week,

she woke me up
saying she heard screaming.

Then last night, she said she
saw a ghost outside her window.

A ghost?
I could
barely console her.

She wanted you.
She said only Mommy can help.

Did you look
outside her window?

For a ghost? No.

She was
having a nightmare.

It has nothing to do
with ghosts.

You think it's about
what happened?

Of course.

Okay, um, thank you
for telling me.

Hi.
I'm Valerie Castillo.

I work for
the Los Angeles Herald.

I'm here to see
yesterday's case reports.

Okay.

You a crime reporter?

Um, not yet.

I write for the Style Section,
going on 15 years.

Oh.
But I'm over it.
[ Chuckles ]

It's all been reduced to
sex tips and celebrity gossip.

You know, the clickbait.

Mm, so you're fishing
for a real story?

Actually,
I've already got one.

Do you know
anything about

a bunch of robberies
at five-star hotels?

Mm, first I've heard
of it.

Well, a concierge
at the Borden

told me that two guests
were beaten and robbed there

in the last few weeks.

Now, neither victim
want her to contact the police.

When I went to
other stations

to look through
the crime reports,

I found three similar incidents
in hotels around town.

Is there a description
of the attacker?

No, because
none of the men gave one.

But the cases
have to be connected.

Yeah, I mean,
it sure seems like it.
Right?

You know, you don't want
the case reports.

There's actually
a lot more information

in the CAD printouts.

What are those?

Computer Aided Dispatch
reports.

Why are you volunteering
to show her those?

This is a reporter
from the Herald,

and these are
public-facing documents.

Valerie Castillo.

They're only public-facing
when asked for.

Can I see the CAD reports,
please?

Fine.
Give 'em to her.

Thank you.
Not a fan of the press?

Eh, Herald's got
a bias against the police.

No, we don't.
It's implicit.

Unlike your bias
against me.
Cute.

You know, the media
will say or do anything

to get you
to back up their headline.

And make sure she gives you
those printouts back.

And get ready to roll.

We're gonna hit the streets
as soon as I change.

Yes, sir.

You shouldn't let him
talk to you like that.

He's my training officer.
That's just kind of his style.

Well, being an ass
isn't style.

[ Chuckles ]

But he sure can
wear a suit.

I thought that only happened
in Road Runner cartoons.

It's the Santa Ana winds.

Is that you?

It's been too long!

Yeah, no, yeah.
It sure has.

Sorry about

Benjamin and I are in a bit of
a rough patch right now, too.

Because most people suck.

it's not the first time.

She's been having nightmares
on and off for over a year,

ever since...

it happened.
[ Sighs ]

Ever since what happened?

So [Sighs] Daddy tells me

that you are not
sleeping so good.

Mnh-mnh.
I keep getting woken up.

By the nightmares?
They're not nightmares.

I hear
somebody screaming.

Honey, it's probably
just the wind.

I mean, the Santa Anas
are really blowing.

No, but it started
before them.

Okay.

And then last night, did you
tell Daddy you saw a ghost?

I said it looked
like a ghost.

Ghosts aren't real.

Okay, so,
what did you see, then?

Well, I saw a woman...

walking down the street.

In a nightgown.

She had blood
on her hands.

[ Wind blowing ]

Donovan: It was right before
we split.

[ Sighs ] Nyla had been
working undercover

for almost a year,

had barely come home.

We were in a bad place,

but we were trying to
make it work.

And then she took Lila
to the supermarket.

You know why we moved
out here?

'Cause it's
a nice neighborhood?

[ Scoffs ] 'Cause it was
nowhere near where Nyla worked.

She couldn't run the risk of
running into a criminal

who knew her
as someone else on the street.

And that's what happened
at the store.

A drug dealer
she'd put away.

He recognized her.

And tried to k*ll her
in front of my daughter.

Lila:
Do you believe me?

Honey, I-I --

No lies. You promised.

Yes.

I believe you.

And I'm glad
you wanted to tell me.

You're a police officer,
and someone needs help.

Donovan: I'm sorry.
I shouldn't have said anything.

No, no, it's, um...

[ Sighs ]

What?
What's going on?

Just waiting on you.
How'd it go?

Uh, Lila says it wasn't a ghost
and it wasn't a nightmare.

And I believe her.

Then what was it?
I don't know.

But, um, I would like
to stay here tonight,

maybe do some surveillance,
if that's okay.

You really think
that's necessary?

Well, Lila needs to see that
we're taking her seriously.

Oh, and I don't?

I-I am sure
that's not what she meant.

It's not.
I ju-- [Chuckles nervously]

I just want to be here
for her.

Okay. Sure.

Come back tonight.

Okay.

[ Wind blowing ]
Don told you
about what happened.

It sounded awful.

Yeah, it was, and he used it
against me in court.

He convinced the judge

that Lila wasn't safe
around me unsupervised.

That was also awful.

♪♪

What is it?

Uh, Lila's room
is right there.

She said the woman
with the blood on her hands

was right about here.

Does that look like blood
to you?

Could be.

Or oil
or transmission fluid.

Want me to call in
a forensics team?

For a ghost hunt? No,
they'd laugh me off the radio.

I could call it in.

Rookies get laughed at
all the time.

I appreciate that,
but odds are it's nothing.

Alright, uh,
