1"Graduation Day" David Ayer Will Beall January 2, 2020 (2020-01-02) [a] 4.75 [13]
Following the sudden death of his superior Bradford, Bill Hollister, as his longest-serving mounted deputy, is appointed as Sheriff until elections can be held. Finding himself thrust into a world where politics overlap with police priorities, Bill defies protocol by personally taking part in a raid on a gang hideout, during which a gangster is killed in front of his children. Bill encourages his friend Cade to consider adopting the children since he and his wife are having trouble conceiving. Bill's godson Joseph is attacked while on duty at the county jail; an inmate steals his uniform and escapes. Under intense scrutiny, Bill contemplates resigning, but both his wife and his subordinate Bishop persuade him otherwise. After shutting down an ICE operation he considers ethically wrong, Bill takes Bishop and Cade on a mounted assault to rescue the kidnapped daughter of a cartel money launderer using information provided by Joseph. Bishop kills the inmate, the girl is saved, and the launderer agrees to cooperate. Cade tells his newly adopted son that if he intends to take revenge for his father's death, he'll have to stay and watch him. Bill stops Joseph from quitting, but refuses to put him on the front lines.
2"10-8 Outlaws"David AyerKimberly Ann HarrisonJanuary 9, 2020 (2020-01-09)4.03 [14]
Bill continues to struggle with the responsibilities of his new office, which largely entail taking care of bureaucratic tasks he finds dull and boring and stepping away from the day-to-day grind of catching criminals. All that changes when Roman Burgin (Jack Kesy)—a man who Bill has long despised—returns to crime after getting out of jail. Bill sets up a manhunt and insists on taking part against Bishop's advice. While preparing for his first day on patrol, Joseph sees his instructor Luna sharing a kiss with fellow Deputy Minnick, a potential violation of department rules. Joseph agrees to keep silent at Luna's request. Burgin steals money and a motorbike from a cartel drop point and prepares to flee across the border; Bill orders the highways to be shut down in response. Angered by both his boss' arrogant attitude and his wife serving him divorce papers, Undersheriff London brings Minnick into a plan to undermine Bill. Burgin is intercepted and taken into custody. That night, Bill meets Bishop's girlfriend Genevieve and gives Cade advice on parenting. While picking up food and drinks with Joseph, Luna is shot and critically wounded.
3"10-8 Deputy Down" Chris Grismer John CovenyJanuary 16, 2020 (2020-01-16)3.66 [15]
In the aftermath of Luna's shooting, the entire department makes finding his assailant their highest priority. However, Bill denies Joseph's request to join in, assigning him to Luna's security detail. A heartbroken Minnick convinces him to help her arrest a man who had threatened Luna, which turns out to be one of his informants maintaining his cover. Bill and Cade utilize Bill's old friend, a barber they refer to as "The Mayor", to help them track the gun used in the shooting. This leads them to a paroled convict who admits he already sold the weapon. London tries to embarrass Bill by falsely announcing the shooter's arrest to the media. Luna dies from complications from surgery and his death is formally reported to the department. Based on the suspect's word, Bill finds the real shooter, a mentally ill man named Donald Murphy who shot Luna after mistaking him for his abusive father. Rather than let his deputies pursue and potentially shoot Murphy, Bill personally arrests him. Joseph gives Minnick a lost necklace Luna gifted to her, earning her forgiveness.

Joseph's efforts to investigate the shooting are also complicated by the hostility shown towards him as a black police officer; Minnick steps in to offer her insights about how to deal with having two separate, yet mutually exclusive identities. Paula asks to be fired when told the hospital is cutting her department's funding, but Bill tells her to stay and fight. An associate of Evans bails him out with the intention of silencing him.

Against London's advice that he's too emotionally invested, Bill takes charge and cuts a deal with Rose to trade some of the hostages for medical equipment. However, when he tries to breach the jail, he learns that Rose has anticipated this, having made extensive preparations. Bill makes the only move he has left: offering himself as a hostage, along with a promise that he'll help them escape, in return for Paula 's release. The surgery is completed, and Rose agrees to the deal. Bill instructs Cade to snipe Rose when they get to the roof, but she figures out the plan and takes him, Paula, and the rest of the hostages onto the roof in disguises.
