[Naomi]
I didn't say yes
I didn't say I'll think about it
I can't tell you my real name, but yes
I can confirm that I did get asked to the prom
[Narrator]
The undercover officer who played Naomi is 25 years old
A new recruit at the palm beach police force
[Naomi]
My assignment: To pose as a senior and find out who's buying, who's selling
Mostly pills and weed, you would not believe how easy it is to get pills and weed
[Narrator]
What's the hardest part?
[Naomi]
Pssh—the cafeteria
Imagine hundreds of teenagers yelling and running full speed
And the lack of deodorant
Let's just say I would drink at the end of the day
Seriously, these kids need to learn there are consequences in life
If I'm doing my job and I'm doing it right, I am making life safer one school at a time
[Narrator]
So he asked you to prom?
[Naomi]
Right
I gave every excuse
I said it's too expensive, which is totally true, by the way
I told him, look, I'm just a transfer, I wouldn't feel comfortable with all your friends
And it's true you make friends on the job, then it ends
You meet kids who are sensitive, smart, and defenseless
Those are the ones you remember, the ones that you think about after you're gone
Seriously, these kids need to learn there are consequences in life
If I'm doing my job and I'm doing it right, I am making life safer one school at a time
[Narrator]
Meanwhile
[Justin]
What the heck I gotta do to be with you?
[Students]
What the heck I gotta do?
[Justin]
Tell me who I gotta be for you to be with me
[Naomi]
Do you smoke?
[Justin]
What?
[Naomi]
Do you smoke weed?
[Justin]
No, I don't
But if that's what you need, I can find some for you
I can be your supply
[Naomi]
You would do that for me?
[Justin]
I can be your guy
Oh, yes!
[Naomi]
Seriously, these kids need to learn there are consequences in life
[Justin]
I'll get whatever you need!
[Naomi]
If I'm doing my job and I'm doing it right
I am making life safer one school at a time
[Narrator]
What are you thinking as you're trying to get this pot to sell her?
[Justin]
I'm thinking, what the heck am I doing?
Cause I don't hang out with guys like that
[Narrator]
So what did you do?
