And that's just one example of the ways the curriculum had been compressed.

Total teaching hours had been cut by 40%.

So have you ever seen a tree die from the inside?

Did they rot from the inside outwards?

So...

Maybe you'll see this sometime if you were going to the woods, you'll see a tree that looks completely solid on the outside.

The bark is intact, the shell is intact, but if you push it, it will just snap and you'll look inside and the whole core is gone, right?

It's just hollowed out on the inside.

That's kind of how the training academy was.

Meanwhile, Ryan still has to figure out how to deal with this memo.

Does he teach it?

So did you tell cadets when you were training them that they should go into houses without a warrant?

Or did you find a way?

No.

So what I would tell cadets, I would tell cadets this policy is out there.

First and foremost, if I could avoid the subject, I would.

But in the classes where it would come up, I would discuss the memo like this.

I would tell cadets this policy is out there.

This policy is the agency's position on it.
