The series follows John Nolan, a 45-year-old newly divorced man from Pennsylvania, who, nine months after helping police officers during a bank robbery in his hometown, Foxburg, moves to Los Angeles to pursue a new career as a police officer in the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD). After graduating from the Police Academy as the oldest rookie on the force, Nolan must navigate the dangerous, unpredictable nature of his job and is determined to make it in his new career despite the challenges.

"Clean Cut"

Nolan kicks off his birthday by babysitting a crime scene at a law office. He meets Ellroy Basso, a professional cleaner, and they have to evade two criminals when they return to the scene looking for a hidden stash of money. Meanwhile, Tim is involved in an accident when he rear-ends a woman while on patrol. Jackson is also exposed to a substance during a traffic stop and begins to act like he is on drugs. Sgt. Grey also rides patrol with Officer Harper after she requests an early annual evaluation to better her chances of getting custody of her daughter, and Grey observes her compassion in dealing with a near-drunk driver who was depressed after a cancer diagnosis. In the end, it is revealed the boyfriend of the woman Tim hit is intentionally scamming people to earn money by disconnecting the brake lights on the woman's car. Tim and Lucy also thwart a potential murder that the woman's boyfriend is trying to commit. Jackson is evaluated at the hospital but his exposure to the substance is not as serious as initially feared, allowing both Tim and Jackson to receive a special award from the deputy chief.
