You turn into a hipster,

all good,

but don't mess

with my daughter's life.

For the record, my daughter's

better off with me

than with a deranged addict.

Your lover friend's been

f***ing with the wrong people.

How long have you been

stalking us?

She's stealing

from a bunch of animals.

She sells a few bags on the side

so she can raise money

for a surf company, a blog;

what's the big deal?

Big deal is that next time

she gets beaten, raped,

our daughter might be around.

You make your lady friend

stop now.

- Roger that.

- Do it for our daughter.

F*** you. I have always

been there for her.

Unlike some people.

Those days are part of the past.

Good. We might even see

each other once in a while then.

I moved here.

What?

Two towns north.

Are you f***ing with me?

Are you delusional? Like,

what are you gonna do here?

Landscaping?

I'm back on the force.

They took you back?

You're a cop again?

I turned a corner in my life.

I wanna see her.

Well, no contact

until further consideration,

as per the judge.

- I deserve to see her.

- Do you?

[Babel]

Yeah.

I'll give it some thought.

[Babel]

Family Court say it's your call.

[lighter clicks]

All these papers

mean nothing to me.

It's the eyes of the man

that tell the story.

Yours are beautiful.

Clear.

Thank you.

- Means a lot.

- Now...

What you told me doesn't

surprise me one bit.

They aren't fooling me.

I understand trouble.

And is that young lady

a mess, huh?

All those tats, those rings.

Jesus, Lord!

Listen, if I was back

in Amy's life, I'd...

Let's not jump the gun.

A court order

is serious business.

And you still have

a lot to prove.

I'll watch 'em like a hawk.

In these situations, tragedy

can strike at any moment.

In my line of work, I've seen

it happen every time.

Anything else, Detective?

[Katherine on TV] After

these weeks of sunshine,

I don't know how to break

this to you.

This crazy Suzy

is slamming Jamaica

and is coming our way.

A hurricane after Thanksgiving!

Sunny side up as usual, hon.

Don't you get bored?

[Katherine] ...I had seen it all.

Let's not pack up quite yet.

Boring is good.

- We still have a few days left.

- [theme song plays]

- [knock on window]

- That's all from Katherine Buchanan...

- Oh, not that thing again.

- He's quite a charmer when he wants to be.

[Schmidt] The latest forecast is

up on the board, check it out.

Does not look good.

All right, and we're gonna post

any updates as they come along.

[Sheehan] My bad, chief. Sorry,

I had to stop for a latte.

[officers chuckle]

Oh, no coffee

for your new homeboys?

[Schmidt]

All right, as I was saying,

we have never, ever been hit by a
