Where are you?
On the lam.Stop it.
No, I'm on a mini road trip with a friend.
A chance to clear my head.
I should be home tonight.
Good. Spoke to your union reps this morning.
Long story short, they've agreed to let your colleagues
testify as character witnesses at trial,
which is a huge win, all things considered.
Hm.
We have two very different perspectives on huge wins.
I'm on trial for defending myself
against a sexual predator,
and my friends are allowed to say I'm a good person?
That's a hell of a prize.
A predator who was also a fellow a firefighter
who can't stand trial for what he did to you,
because he's dead.
And whose fault is that?
This is very good for your case.
The union could have followed the department's lead on this
and stayed on the sidelines,
but they're supporting you out loud.
We'll talk later.

I wonder if my soon-to-be brother likes pork rinds.

What list?
I made a list
of, you know, fun facts about myself,
so that we can compare things we like.
You know, like food or music. Oh.

Have you seen the rest of the field?
He could very easily win, and nothing terrifies me more.
I'm a first responder.
I'm great at problem solving, but on this, I got nothing.
Well, I mean, youcould run for mayor.
I can't do that.
Why not? Scared you're gonna lose?
No, because I think I could win.
Okay, yeah. Maybe thatterrifies me more.
I think you should do it, Travis.
I'll vote for you.
I mean, I don't even have my green card yet,
but you know what I mean.
Wait, are we actually talking about
you running for mayor of Seattle?
Yeah. No. No. I don't know.
Not to actually be mayor,
but to just, you know, make sure Dixon isn't.
I think you would win.
Yeah? Yeah.
But that's crazy, right?
-Yes. -Yeah.
Like you said, the world is crazy.

I had a friend when I was a kid named Angel.
Mm-hmm.
He was my favorite person.
Made me laugh so hard.
He used to do these dirty puppet shows
with puppets he would make out of empty cans.[ Chuckles ]
So funny.
When we were in high school,
his mom and dad walked in on him making out with this dude, Mike.
Mike? Yeah.
[ Chuckles ] Twist. Okay.
Yeah.
His dad beat the crap out of him.
But his mom...
She had his back?
No.
No, she kicked him out and said he could never come back.
He was so funny. He was so smart.
He was such a good friend.
And his parents,
I mean, they put love into him to make him that way, right?
They put love into him, and then this one thing that --
this one part of him that they can't accept,
that they can't understand, they...
and they just throw him out with the trash.
In Jesus's name, no less.[ Scoffs ]
Well, what happened to him?
He slept on my floor for a few weeks.
Then his dad showed up at my door with a shotgun.
Whoa. Okay. Yeah.
My parents tried to talk to him,
but his dad wanted him out of town.
It's like, if they weren't gonna love their kid,
then no one else was allowed to.
[ Scoffs ]
People are so messed up.Mm-hmm.
They're so stuck on their stupid ideas of right and wrong and...
They can't see that hating their own kid is just like...
Inarguably wrong.
Yeah.
Well, what happened to Angel after that?
I never heard him laugh again, I can tell you that.
They wrecked him.
They poured all that love into him and they just...

I could borrow some of his memories, you know?
Mm.
I hate that nobody protected you when you were a kid,
and I hate that the person who abused you got away with it.
They always do.
For every one of me,
there's a dozen other kids who probably told nobody
because they thought what happened to them was their fault.
Predators, they...
