Episode Highlights:

00:55 - First, you got to assess. You can't just run in and start hitting people over the head with your nightstick. You got to assess what's going on here. You got to take a moment and pause and take a deep breath and take a look at the situation, because it's not always as you assume it is. You just rush in. That's going to get you in deeper trouble.
