This is the heaviest drama we've seen in quite a while.

Ever, I think. This is way out-of-genre, but I like the excitement.

Faye is definitely going to warn Bubbles, but what happens next is anybody's guess. Perhaps Bubbles will go to Corpse Witch and she'll propose taking out the cop. She's good at manipulation and if she convinces Bubbles that the cop is a threat to their livelihood and her friend, Bubbles may reveal hersel as Corpse Witch's longtime enforcer. Given her military background I wouldn't fancy the police bot making it to retirement.
themacnut:
This really isn't about abuse of citizens by police. This is about Faye working in a less-than-legal enterprise and the consequences of that finally catching up with her - she's lucky she wasn't already swept up in a police raid. This may be the beginning of the process leading to that outcome.
The really smart play would be for her to get a lawyer and quit the underground robot fight club yesterday. I doubt she'll do that though.
ZMiles1:
I'm gonna predict that this isn't a cop, it's a test by Corpse Witch to evaluate Faye's loyalty. CW has shown several times that she's suspicious of Faye and doesn't think her attempts to befriend the various AIs are sincere or meaningful; she seems to dislike humans in general and wants to keep Bubbles (and possibly others) isolated from them.
My guess: Faye will very soon see something 'bigger' going on in the skate rink, robots being shaken down or seriously hurt or something, and she'll have to decide whether to report to the 'AI police' or to tell CW what's going on. If she goes to CW, CW reveals that Faye passed the test and whatever Faye saw was all staged; if she goes to the 'AI police', CW reveals it was a trick (and that she has enough influence Faye can't just go to the actual police) and sacks her. And then tells Bubbles that, when it came down to it, Faye sold out her AI companions for herself.
