In her first week as Chief of Police of the LAPD, Abigail "Tommy" Thomas inserts herself into a standoff between the city and ICE over Maria de la Puerta, an undocumented woman with a mysterious past. Tommy arranges for Maria's teenage daughter Madison to stay with her daughter Kate, as she is presently living in a hotel room after a recent divorce. Kate despises her mother for putting her career before her, but agrees to help. Tommy comes under pressure from Arturo Lopez, a powerful businessman and ally to Mayor Buddy Gray, to cover up the truth: he brought Maria into the country as a 15-year old, raped her, and that Madison is his daughter. Tommy learns that Lopez will likely get away with his crimes unless Maria testifies against him, and that because she is dependent on the money he provides her with, will almost certainly return to him and allow Madison to be victimized as well. She arranges for Maria and her child to be put into witness protection and orders Lopez's arrest. Kate asks Tommy to move in with her as her marriage is in dire straits and she wants a chance for the two to reconcile.

Mayor Grey is informed that Lopez is willing to cut a deal with the U.S. attorney in exchange for lesser charges. He asks Blake to try and figure out what Lopez is offering. Tommy personally meets with a civilian who filed a complaint against Guzman; she also gives him her card and asks him to contact her office if another cop assaults him. Ken and Donn gather evidence suggesting Guzman was depressed, and that his father, retired cop Alex Guzman, was seen near the scene of his death. Tommy visits Alex and reveals the truth: his son killed himself and he faked the ambush to protect him from the disgrace of suicide. Leakey, embarrassed, agrees to help Tommy by raising funds to take care of Eddie's wife. Blake is informed by Ken that Lopez was murdered by his fellow inmates. Kate gives Tommy the chance to bond with her granddaughter Luna.

When Shaw dies from his injuries, his wife and friends put pressure on the city to have the case wrapped up quickly. Owens' lawyer goes on offense by claiming that Shaw had a history of sexual misconduct, which piques Tommy's interest. She personally sits in on an interrogation and determines that Tara is telling the truth, but is also hiding something. Mayor Grey reaches out to Blake for her advice and possibly her assistance in handling an impending separation from his wife. Tara's old boss, Walker, tells Diaz and his partner that Tara may have had a previous relationship with Shaw, but when Tommy looks into it, she discovers that he fired her after she told him that Shaw raped her. This information is turned over to the prosecution, who agree to drop all charges against Tara.

On top of that, her chief tech Decker insists that Nemesis--a system that gathers private data for the detection of threats and suspects--be used to find the bomber without first getting a warrant. Tommy has academy trainees handle the mudslide, sends Diaz and Ken to find Luna, and asks Blake to address the youths. She also requests a warrant to utilize Nemesis, but when the request is denied, she decides not to use it. By setting a trap for the bomber, the LAPD is able to neutralize the bomb in time for the summit to successfully conclude.

When he is given probation instead of jail, Tommy's decision to support him is questioned when photos of her and Kiley are released. Tommy tries to protect Kiley as best she can, but recognizes that it is simply not acceptable for her to be intimate with someone with conflicting business interests. The two mutually agree to break up after talking things over. Donn is also upset by Tommy's choices, feeling that anyone who uses a gun for criminal activity needs to be taken off the street. The teenager soon comes under suspicion for a murder, and while the LAPD determines he was not responsible, his probation is extended for another year. Mayor Grey, to protect himself, announces an ethics investigation of Tommy's actions. Blake is visited by a private investigator who threatens her with photos taken of her in bed with Mayor Grey to make her stop asking questions about Vincent.

11"This Is Not a Drill"Eric LaneuvilleCarl Capotorto & Lucy TeitlerApril 30, 2020 (2020-04-30)5.10[13]
Tommy begins a secret, informal investigation into the reporter's disappearance and the person who made a threat made to Blake. Cooper recognizes the man that threatened Blake and reaches out to a former colleague, who then brings Cooper into a meeting in which he's told if Tommy is removed Cooper will become the next police chief. During all this, the LAFD is fighting a large wildfire that began by a person disposing of a body in the woods and setting them on fire. Tommy appears before the ethics committee, and is blindsided by a subordinate who lies about that Tommy used her position to stop the investigation into her son-in-law's prostitution arrest. As a result of that, and other apparent improprieties, the ethics committee recommends removing her as police chief which it does.
12"Cause of Death"Scott EllisStory by : Chris Kappel
Teleplay by : Tom Szentgyorgyi
May 7, 2020 (2020-05-07)5.35[14]
Following Tommy's termination, her allies, including now-Acting Chief of Police Cooper try to figure out why Vice Commander Rascal Santos lied to the ethics commission. Blake and Ken tails former cop Howie Ford, but he catches onto them and steals their evidence before being killed in an accident seconds later. Looking further into Ford's activities, they discover a connection to a coroner whom, after being confronted by Tommy and Cooper, gives them the final pieces of the puzzle to tie the entire conspiracy together: years ago, real estate tycoon Jonathan Lovell paid Arturo Lopez to help get substandard construction at his Sunset Palace development approved by building inspectors. When a homeless man was subsequently killed in a collapse at the site, top detective Len Egan paid off the coroner to claim the deceased was the final victim of the Crenshaw Fireman, a serial killer he had been tracking. When Lopez was about to expose this, Lovell paid fellow inmates to kill him to silence him, and when Vincent began investigating, Lovell had Ford kill him, burn his body (causing the prior brush fire in the process), and then have the same coroner falsely ID the body as someone else, creating the appearance that Vincent had gone into hiding. To put the final nail in the coffin, Egan and Lovell then blackmailed Santos into helping get Tommy fired in exchange for not going public about his own corruption and connections to human trafficking. Egan is brought in for questioning as he is about to flee the city, and after laying out all the evidence before him, Tommy and Cooper persuade him to cooperate in order to retain some of the image of the good cop that he was throughout most of his career in the eyes of his colleagues and peers, instead of the image of another common criminal. Egan flips on Lovell, and the commission, now armed with all the facts, to reinstate Tommy as police chief. Lovell later shows up at Tommy’s office with an army of lawyers, hinting that he has made a deal in exchange for information he has given to the Department of Justice. But on his way out of HQ, Lovell is unexpectedly gunned down by a disgruntled Santos, who is in turn shot dead by Diaz. Mayor Gray fires Deputy Mayor Dudek for his role in the conspiracy and meets with Tommy in her office, hoping they can unite to run Los Angeles together. Tommy then receives a phone call from the DoJ asking for her cooperation in a new investigation into Gray.
