I mean its practically a punisher origin story. they are the one “good” cop on the force, and maybe not, maybe not perfectly so. misplaced sensibilities, class identity, etc. build them flawed. then its Uvalde. but this time its not some black or brown kid suffering as a consequence of the system you help prop up. its your wife and child, the actually good person in society, and a doe-eyed innocent child. and the cops around you, they won’t let you save her. they wont let you redeem yourself. they prevent you from being even the pretend hero society projects onto you. The shots are ringing out and you can hear their screams, and the system has you anchored to the ground to protect itself.

the phone screen background isn’t who they are, its who they will become.
