The Roundup

We were all in the briefing room happy about what today is.

"All right, settle down. Settle down. Listen. Everyone knows what today is, and I just want to say that Team Bradford is gonna dominate once again." Tim tells everyone

"Yeah, not this year, Blondie." I tell him

"You're going down, man. - Yeah!" Multiple cops say to him

I can tell the boots are talking about what today is but I can't hear there conversation and soon Grey is finally in here.

"All right, settle down. Don't think I didn't see you up in my spot, Bradford. So, I am aware that today is the day where our T.O. units compete for most arrests. Under no circumstance does the department endorse this. Meaning I don't want to hear about your points or strategy. Am I clear, Officer Bradford?" Grey asks Tim

"Yes, sir. This job isn't about winning. It's about good policing and teamwork." Tim says and we leave since roll call is over and we all go out into the hallway

Me and West were walking to the garage to get prepped and ready for the day while I explain what today is about.

"Now, today scoring is like football, 7 points for a felony arrest, 3 points for a misdemeanor. And we focus on quality over quantity." I tell him

"Okay. So what's our strategy?" West asks

"Get more felony arrest than misdemeanors." I tell him and we went patrolling and arrested two people and took then back to the station to the booking area where Tim and Lucy were

"Oh, you gotta be kidding me." Tim says

"Oh, hey! Look what we found just two blocks away. A burglary and a conspiracy lookout." West tells Tim

"Are you here booking someone?" I ask Tim

"No." Tim says

"Oh. Then I guess we're first on the boards. 14 points." I tell him knowing it will make him salty to win and me and Jackson fist bump

"Hey!" Jackson says

"Aah!" I say and me and Jackson leave going back out for more points

Me and Jackson get out of their patrol car in a residential neighborhood.

"7-Adam-07, wellness check, 552 Oakwood. ER nurse reports patient with suspected stroke disappeared from the hospital." Dispatch says

"7-Adam-7, show us Code 6 on the wellness check." I say to dispatch

"14 points out the gate. You ever done that before?" West asks me

"No, but we got to keep the pressure on. Bradford's always got a trick or two up his sleeve." I tell him

"I hope our patient didn't come home and croak, or we'll get stuck here all day." West tells me

"Wow, less than an hour into the competition and you're already exhibiting a visible lack of compassion." I say

"I'm sorry. You're right. That was extremely insensitive of me." West apologizes and I knock on the door and the door opens to reveal an older gentleman

"Police. Mr. Walker?" I ask

"Yeah?" Walker asks

"Sir, are you okay? Your ER nurse said you left the hospital before you were discharged. She tried calling you, but you didn't answer." I say concerned

"Oh. Uh. I'm, I'm, I'm sorry. I was feeling better, and that hospital food, you know, it's just - it's just so awful. So I came home for some leftovers. Can you please tell her thank you from me for for checking up on me?" Walker asks
