This paints Bubbles in a weird light to me. The fact that she and Corpse Witch have a code phrase and SOPs for police calls makes it seem less like she's a good person in a bad place and more "willing accomplice".
Maybe she justifies it to herself the way May does, that it's illegal for the wrong reasons, but still.

Or it could be that Bubbles has told CW about the cop that has been snooping around, about how she trapped her in a garbage can and chased after a raccoon. Which makes it more of an in-joke than a code phrase.

I think its more Bubbles knowing that the cop is going make trouble, not for her but for others. May is a recent parolee, Faye is her friend and there are probably other AIs who are in need of repairs that the skate park provides. Its the lesser evil to deal with the cop via CW than to have the cop come busting in and messing something up.
Which is probably going to happen, something getting messed up.
Storel:
Finally, we know the officer's name! "Roko Basili", hmm, is that a reference to anything? Roko sounds like possibly an anime name.

Bear in mind that "Basili" isn't the full name, she got cut off by CW. Could be Basilisk, Basilica, Bastiliatcos, or Bastiliastephloccus (she's Greek, her mother was Galatea)
jheartney:
Wouldn't an EMP pulse gun take out Lilac Roko-Basili at the same time as the other AI's? EMP's are not aimable.
Bubbles is on CW's side for obvious reasons: the fighting rink is the sole livelihood for Bubbles and a whole lot of other AI's, and any attempt to implement a dragnet by Roko will inevitably draw in both Bubbles and everyone around. Plus, in comic, Roko has been transformed from a threat to a silly clown.
