Narrator: "It's another busy day for Officers Pete Malloy and Jim Reed as they patrol the streets of Los Angeles in their black and white cruiser. But as they gear up for another shift, they have no idea that they will soon be faced with a case that will put all their training and expertise to the test."

Malloy: "Alright, ma'am, have you searched the immediate area?"
Mother: "Yes, we've looked everywhere! I even asked the neighbors if they saw anything, but no one has."

Reed: "Maybe we can get a lead if we talk to some of the kids at the park?"
Malloy: "That's a good idea. Let's see if anyone knows anything."
