SARAH: Case!

Case, wait up!

Sorry, we can't be late!

Didn't Professor Ambrose advise
you to skip class this week?

Yeah, I just can't
sit around and do nothing.

He's not gonna be found guilty.

Case, at worst,
your brother's a thief.

PJ: Hey, how you holding up?

She's not.

I was up all night,
but I've got a plan.

Look, if he's convicted
of second-degree murder,

there's only two ways
to shorten a life sentence.

Through the governor,
upon unanimous recommendation

by the board of pardons,
or an exoneration.

We can cross that bridge
if and when we get there.

PJ, after dark clouds
come rainbows.

Start talking.

In my year of being
a court intern,

precedent shows the odds
of an exoneration or a pardon

are extremely low.

But not impossible.

Casey, this is why
hypothetical bridges are bad.

Now you're sad!
- No, no, I'm not sad.

Look, thank you
for being honest.

And thank you both
for being here

and all of the support.

I could not have done it
without you.

It's much appreciated.

I'm just an intern,

standing in front of
a worried sister, asking her--

Wait, are you quoting
Notting Hill right now?

What? No.

Okay, yes.

- I love Notting Hill.
- See? Thank you!

PROFESSOR AMBROSE: The
protections of due process

can be further understood
in what two categories?

Jared?
- Procedural due process and...

- Sarah?
- Substantive due process.

Which ensures that laws
and actions are what?

Tamara?
- Fair and reasonable.

Because our rights
should not be infringed.

AMBROSE: Haven't opened the
floor to commentary, Mr. Flint,

but since you are
so eager to participate,

enlighten us
on some of the errors

that can lead to prejudice
against a defendant.

Flaws in lab procedures,

inaccurate
or miscalculated DNA testing,

and overall fraud
and human error.

Human error.

[in a whisper]
Little show-off.

AMBROSE: Yes.

Now, this is where theory
gets convoluted by practice,

which can compromise
an otherwise fair proceeding.

Now the floor is open.

ELI: What about the act
of second-degree murder?

Let's say in the case of,
I don't know, a robbery.

[scoffs]
Unreal.

How does due process
apply to that?

And what if the robbery
was committed

after the victim
was already dead?

Regardless of the nature
of the offence,

doesn't the law apply equally
to everyone involved?

For instance, isn't
the sentence life in prison

without
the possibility of parole?

And what if the defendant
was only convicted

because of human error?

I mean, I'm sure you wouldn't
want an innocent man

to go to prison
for the rest of their lives

for something they didn't do,
would you?

Or maybe you actually would.

AMBROSE: While I appreciate
a hearty debate,

we've gotten a little
ahead of ourselves.

Wrongful conviction will be
the focus in the next few weeks.

That is class.

Mr. Flint, Ms. Barlowe,
please come to the front.

We'll wait for you.

I swear...

AMBROSE: Look, I know
you both are going through

some incredibly
hard things right now.

He started it.

Wow, with an opening like that,
good luck ever winning a case.

You know, I could argue
that your brother started it

by killing my girlfriend.
- Okay--

You don't know anything
about my brother!

Or about me.

You are a spoiled brat who's had
every single thing handed to him

his whole life and has
never had a single hardship

for a single day, ever.

Now, that's a better opening.

AMBROSE: Whether her brother
did this to Devina or not,

it is not Casey's fault.

Devina was her friend,

and she could also be
losing her brother.

And he is in grief.

I know you can relate.

Look, I hate that you are both
going through this right now,

and I am here for you,
whatever you need.

But you can't
bring it into my class,

or I'll ask you to leave, okay?

- Of course.
- Fine.

Eli, you can go.
Casey, please stay.

[sighs]

"He started it"?

I'm sorry, Professor Ambrose.
I just, I...

No, it's okay.
It's okay.

- I shouldn't have engaged.
- It's okay.

- [sighs]
- How are you doing?

Bracing for the worst, and...

trying to hope for the best.

Yeah.

The jury's deliberating
right now, so, um...

Length of deliberation
isn't necessarily

a good or bad sign
for either side.

Do you think what
Theodore Parker said was right?

Does the moral arc of the
universe bend toward justice?

Well, my next class
starts in 11 minutes,

and that is not near
enough time to have

the "Do we live in
a just society" conversation.

Yeah.

But I meant
what I said earlier.

Whether you need to talk
or just miss a few classes,

I'm here.

- Okay.
- Okay.

Hey...
Hey, are you okay?

I am so sorry
that happened to you.

Someone needs to put
a muzzle on that guy,

and I would love
that someone to be me.

Hey, it's okay.
He believes

that my brother murdered
his girlfriend.

I would be mad too.

I feel like you need a hug.

Oh, okay-- oh, it's happening,
okay, we're hugging.

No, I need to hug you
for at least 30 seconds

to calm your sympathetic
nervous system.

- Uh-huh. Uh, PJ?
- [phone buzzing]

- Mm-hm?
- My phone's ringing.

- Oh.
- Yeah, sorry.

[phone buzzing]

It's the public defender.

Okay, breathe.

Hey.

Okay...

[suspenseful music]

Okay, uh, yeah, yeah.
I'll-- I'll be right there.

Um...

The jury is back,
and Marcus is not doing well,

so I need to go
to the courthouse.

Um, I'm heading there now.
I'll take you.

I'm going with you.

Seriously, I feel like
I'm gonna vomit.

It's okay,
I've got a bag in my car.

Okay, breathe.
It's okay.

Marcus, can we please sit down

I didn't do this,
and they're gonna put me away

for the rest of my life,
I know it!

No, no, we don't know
anything yet, Marcus.

Hi.

Hey, hey,

Good job.

I would never.

What am I gonna do?

I only took the necklace.

If they would just
give me another chance...

Frank, hi.

Casey, this is
District Attorney Quinnley.

Oh, I know.
I intern at his office.

I'm sorry
we're all here like this.

I am too.

Frank, may I speak to you
for a moment?

- It's not a good time.
- Frank, please.

Go ahead.
I'll meet you guys in there.

CASEY: I've been calling.

Did you get my messages?

I did.

Frank, I'm sorry.

I wish there was something
I could do to bring Devina back.

I... I don't even
know what to say.

I-I can't even imagine what sort
of pain you're in right now.

I brought you into our family
after your mom died

when you and Devina
became friends.

I treated you
like one of my own.

I told you to walk away
from your brother.

I know.
I'm sorry, I couldn't.

He's... the only family I have.

That would be the hardest thing
I could ever do.

Not harder
than burying your child.

JUDGE: Thank you.

♪

On the count of
second-degree murder,

we find the defendant,
Marcus Barlowe...

guilty.

I hereby sentence the defendant
to life in prison

without parole.

Ladies and gentlemen
of the jury,

on behalf of myself
and the city of Philadelphia,

I want to thank you
for the attention and time

spent on this case.

Your service is now concluded.

You are discharged.

All rise for the jury, please.

CASEY: Hey, hey, hey.
Come here, come here.

It's okay.
Look, I promise you.

I promise you this is
not how it's gonna end.

I got you.

Remember,
I will get you out of this.

It's gonna be okay.

I love you.

I love you.

It's gonna be fine.

[tearfully]
I love you.

♪

[in a whisper] Eli could
look a little less pleased.

CASEY: Okay, this is why
I always stay ten steps ahead.

I mean, what do we even do now?

Do we ask the public defender
to file an appeal?

Uh, if we ask the public
defender, it'll take forever.

Like, years.
We gotta do this ourselves.

You don't have to do anything.

You've done enough, okay?
This is my brother's case.

This is my fight.

SARAH: Case...
Case, I know you don't like

asking for help, but... if there
was ever a time, this is it.

Please.
Let us help you.

♪

Okay.

Okay, what are our next steps?

Alright, um...
if we're looking to exonerate,

we gotta find new evidence.

They must have
missed something.

An item of clothing
they forgot to test,

blood, hair, fingerprints...

I need to get the discovery.

It'll be released

now that Marcus has
been sentenced, right?

Right, but I can get it
faster than you.

So, text me your address,
I'll meet you there,

and we'll pore through
every page.

Thank you, you legal angel.

Alright, let's go do this.

[ambient city sounds]

CASEY: "I checked
her pulse and breath.

"Should have called the police,
but with my record,

"I was scared
they'd think I'd killed her.

"Felt sick to my stomach,
but I needed the money.

"The necklace was there
and she was already dead,

"so I took it."

How long were you and Devina
friends for?

Since, um,
first day of undergrad.

All three of us, actually.

And then Case and I
went to law school,

Devina came to a party with us,
met Eli,

and started distancing
herself after that.

Yeah.

Ah, so that explains
the tension between you three.

She left you for
the big man on campus.

Yeah, basically.

So, then, how did Marcus
not know Devina?

They never met.

My mom died a couple months
before I went to college,

and that's when Marcus started

pushing me away
and getting into trouble.

You know, breaking and entering,
shoplifting,

public intoxication.

Gotcha.

Strangulation
is a crime of passion.

It takes place between two
people in a close relationship.

Exactly.

So, besides Eli,
who was Devina hanging out with?

We don't actually know.

She folded herself
into Eli's friend group.

And we were never invited
to hang out with that group.

- Nope.
- Not that I wanted to.

In the last, what, six months,

she hasn't returned
a single call or text.

Okay, so we need to figure out
who was in Devina's circle

during that time.

Was Eli questioned?

Uh, I don't think so,
unless it was off the record.

Oh, oh, I can find that out.

- Thank you.
- Yeah.

Here's something.

So, the bodega owner,
he was the one that confirmed

he saw Marcus standing over
Devina's already-still body.

Which Marcus confirmed
in his statement.

He's the only eyewitness.

That doesn't prove murder
beyond a reasonable doubt.

Well, there's 12 jurors
that would say the opposite.

Yeah, but remember
what Ambrose said:

even the most objective jurors

will err on the side of
putting an innocent man away

rather than letting
a murderer go free.

Yeah, it's true.

Who would have
done this to her?

CASEY: Ah, Devina,
what were you doing?

SARAH: Wait...

That's odd.

What'd you find?

The only items tested
were Devina's phone,

which only had her prints,
and the necklace,

which carried Marcus's prints,

which means that the item
Marcus knowingly took

was the sole, real evidence
used to convict him.

PJ: What?

Everything on or around her
should have been tested.

If we could get our hands
on those items,

do you think you could
test them for prints?

If the CSI lab caught me,
I would lose my internship.

Right.

SARAH: But you're
my best friend.

And, you know, justice.

Well, I would do it
fast, though,

because anything
deemed extraneous

will either be disposed of

or returned
to Devina's next-of-kin.

Well, if Frank
gets a hold of it,

we'll never see it again.

Oh, if only we knew an intern
at the public defender's office

with access
to the police department

where said evidence
is being held.

- No, no, no, no...
- Yeah...

- No!
- Oh, she's right.

[Casey sighs]

Do we have to?

[ambient city sounds]

Let me guess.

You guys are
looking for a tutor.

Sorry, my schedule
is indefinitely full.

Ugh, calm down.

I know you think
my brother's guilty.

I know your brother's guilty.

What if I were to tell you
there may be evidence

to suggest the contrary?

Evidence that wasn't properly
dusted for other prints

or tested for a potential match?

And yes, we read every
syllable of discovery.

The public defender's office
is swimming in cases.

They don't have the luxury
of unlimited resources

to spend on cases
that are clear.

Marcus's was clear.

I wonder what your dad
will think when he finds out

the office his son
committed himself to

neglected to test
all the evidence.

Mm, that's a good point.

Why do you think
I would want to help you?

If you really loved Devina
the way you said you did,

wouldn't you do everything in
your power to find her killer?

♪

What do you need me to do?

Get us
the exculpatory evidence.

Possible exculpatory evidence.

Fine.
Before they give it to Frank.

I know you have the police
contacts and the access.

We'll test it at my lab,
and if we get a hit on AFIS--

I'll cross-reference
with criminal records

and police reports.

I can expedite any paperwork
through the court.

Hm.
This is quite the plan you have.

It certainly is.

Are you in?

[sighs]

ELI: Hey-hey, what's up, Green?

GREEN: Hey-hey, Flint!

I hear congrats are in order.
Making sergeant.

Next drink's on
the public defender's office.

You guys are too kind to us.

Speaking of the PD's office,
I saw the DA on the news today.

That Barlowe case,
it's crazy, huh?

Yeah, crazy.

Saw that kid in here
a few times.

Hard to believe he's capable
of something like that.

Hey, uh, listen.

I was actually hoping you could
do me a solid and release

any of the victim's remaining
personal items to me.

Technically I'm only supposed
to release that to next-of-kin.

I know, but the public defender
wanted to extend a courtesy

to the father,
get me to drop it off for him.

More of a personal touch.

Get that?

CASEY: Did you get it?

SARAH: Huh, playing games
with evidence now.

Oh, believe me,
this is no game.

I'm not giving you this until I
know what you're doing with it.

We're gonna test
every item in that bag,

and you're gonna help us.
- [Eli scoffs]

Yeah, that's funny,
'cause I'm not.

If we find any prints
on any of those items

that don't match Marcus,

you're the first person
that we're gonna look to.

CASEY: So,
you have a choice, Eli.

You can work with us, and have
a chance to defend yourself,

or you can go out on your own

and let the chips and the prints
fall where they may.

I think Choice A
is definitely the way.

Yeah.

Got that.

Thank you.

Thank you so much.

Meet us after class
at Sarah's lab?

Well done, ladies.

AMBROSE: Wrongful convictions
have increased 70%

in the last five years,
and the current rate

is as high as 10%
for indicted individuals

who are actually innocent.

But think about it:
fingerprints get lost;

detectives, short on time,
overlook leads;

faulty lab work;
and then the defence comes in

after somebody
has already been arrested--

they weren't at the scene;

they're dependent
on law enforcement

to preserve evidence
and then jurors

to check their bias at the door.

You see where
I'm going with this, right?

Look, when people
enter the system,

they do so with
the best of intentions.

They really want to
make a difference,

but at the end of the day,
the justice system

is made up of human beings.

And human beings
are not perfect.

- PJ?
- Then what's the point?

The point is
we don't stop trying.

We don't stop fighting.

Because human lives
are at stake.

And you can't stop
believing that as well.

That's class.

ELI: You failed to mention
in your plan

that you were going to test me.

Well, we're just dotting
the I's and crossing the T's.

SARAH: You'd be surprised how
many guilty people follow along

thinking they'll
never get caught.

Ego is a strange thing.

And yours
is especially considerable.

For someone that
needed my help,

you have an unusual way
of showing your gratitude.

CASEY: And there's the ego.

I'm sorry, are you
looking for a thank you?

Is that what you're waiting on?

- Yeah, that'd be nice.
- Hey, guys--

Because without me,
there'd be no evidence to test.

Let me be clear,
I'm not doing this for you,

or for Marcus.
Despite what you think,

I don't want an innocent
person in prison.

If there's a chance
that your brother didn't do it,

we need to find out who did.

- Oh, I agree.
- Guys...

Do I think you had
anything to do with this?

No, I don't.

But if it saves my brother,
I don't care if you get caught

in the crossfire if we find out
who actually killed her.

SARAH: Guys!

I got prints.

A clean set from her watch.

I'm gonna compare them
to Marcus and Eli's prints.

In about 20 minutes,
we will know if anyone else

besides Marcus
could have been there

the night Devina was murdered.

ELI: I don't know what
you think you're gonna find.

I have nothing to hide.
CASEY: Good.

Then you wouldn't mind answering
some questions while we wait.

Ugh.

So, where were you
the night Devina was murdered?

- Come on.
- Well, it's an easy question.

You were either with her
or you weren't?

- I wasn't with her.
- Great.

So, uh, did you see her
at all that day?

I will not be
interrogated by you.

You two were known for being
on-again, off-again,

so were you off... again?

My relationship with Devina
is none of your business.

- I beg to differ.
- SARAH: Hey, you done yet?

Ugh!
The results are in...

The prints from Devina's watch
are not a match to you, Eli.

[Eli exhales]

Told ya.

Now do you trust me?

I'm sorry.

Trust is tricky for me.

Um, thank you for your help.

What about Marcus?

They're not a match
for him either.

- Oh, thank goodness.
- But listen...

All this tells us right now

is that this is
a latent set of prints.

This could still
lead to nothing.

Or it could lead to the killer.

Either way,
it's gonna take some time

to match these sets
in the system.

Okay, how much time?

Three days.

Maybe more.

Okay.

What do we do in the meantime?

Hone in on a suspect
with the information we have.

BOTH: PJ.

CASEY: Go, go, go, go!

- What?
- Just get in the corner!

What?
What are you doing?

I just really don't want to see
DA Quinn right now, okay?

Why?

'Cause you got something
stuck in your teeth?

- Wait, do I?
- Yeah.

Oh...

Okay.
Okay, funny man.

Look, DA Quinn can't know
what we're doing

until we have proof
of Marcus's innocence.

Right.

So I shouldn't call out
after him, "Hey, DA Quinn, I--"

No, hey, hey, hey!
Not funny.

And not helpful, okay?

Okay, the coast is clear,
so we're just gonna...

Okay.

[laughter]

You guys are so great.
I love talking to you!

So, let me know how your
golf tournament goes, alright?

And you gotta show me pictures
of your grandbabies,

and I gotta hear about
your swim class, alright?

Uh, alright.

PJ, you're a masterpiece.

Ah, thank you.

- ELI: Question for you.
- Yeah?

Can you quickly locate
criminal records

similar to Devina's case?

- Yeah.
- Yeah, but also on the down-low.

Wait...

Something's different.

We just, uh...

came to an understanding.

Can we just go find
the documents now?

Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Come...

What's an understanding?

It's an understanding.

It's like when two people,
like, agree on a thing.

So, aside from men with
a history of female assault,

what else are we
looking for here?

Uh, strangulation
or attempted strangulation.

And add men who were released
by the time Devina was killed.

And women that were
bound with boat rope.

PJ: Ah...
[murmurs indistinctly]

I'm sorry.

The discovery said
she was bound with boat rope.

No, don't be sorry.

The details help
narrow the search.

Are you sure you're okay,
hearing all this?

Oh, now you're worried
about my feelings?

I'm just asking.

I'm fine.

PJ: Bingo bango!

Three names.

ELI: John Lucas Bronson.

Never trust a man
with two first names.

Taylor Graham, no middle name.

Must have been a middle child.

ELI: Matthew Alias Cane.

CASEY: Alias?

That's an interesting name.

So, all three fit our criteria,

except none of them
used boat rope.

Well, we are off to
a sick and scary start.

DA QUINN: Where's my
invite to the party?

CASEY: I'm sorry, sir.

I know I should have
come to you first.

I found another set of prints.

Can't tell you how I found it,

but I promise
I'll explain everything--

Won't be necessary.

For the record,
I don't condone it.

Of course not.

Uh, and I wouldn't want
to jeopardize my internship

with any conflict of interest--

I think what you should do
is just take some time off.

- I don't need time, sir.
- It's not a punishment.

It's just that you've
gone through a lot,

and you need to
take care of yourself...

and whatever else it is that
you guys are doing in there.

- Understood.
- Yeah?

Thank you.

Yeah.

Also, if my office were to
legally re-open Marcus's case,

you and your
merry band of interns

would need to produce
eyewitness testimony

placing whoever
you think did this

at the scene of Devina's crime.
Okay?

Or better yet,
a full confession.

- Understood.
- Good.

I promise we are using
the utmost discretion.

No, no, no, no, no, no.
Just shh...

Less is more, alright?

- Oh.
- Yeah.

- Yeah, okay, thank you.
- Yeah, you bet.

ELI: Sarah, did you get that?

It's John Lucas Bronson,
Matthew Alias Cane,

and Taylor Graham.

SARAH: [on phone]
Okay, got it.

This just saved us hours,
possibly days.

We'll let you know if and when
we find these guys.

Thank you, Sarah.

Okay, talk soon.

Okay, so how are we
gonna find these guys?

Well, first of all,
are we in trouble?

No, I'm pretty sure

DA Quinn just gave us
his unofficial blessing.

- Oh.
- Nice.

Okay, sweet, well...
I know an off-the-record guy.

He can track anyone down.

I'll call him
and set something up?

- Sounds great.
- Ah!

We're like the Marvel Universe
of law students.

ELI: Oh, man.

You know what that means?

We need a name.

No...

What about Justice Warriors?

- No.
- PJ...

Okay, okay, uh...

Free Marcus?

- We are not saying Free Marcus.
- Absolutely not.

Okay, okay.

We'll brainstorm
something later.

Just remember...
[phone buzzing]

There's no "I" in "team," Eli.

ELI: But there is an "I"
in "Eli."

This is Casey Barlowe.

Yes.

Okay, um...

Yeah, I'll--
I'll be right there.

Uh, are you okay?

I have to go see my brother.

[buzzer]

CASEY: Are you eating?

I know the food's
probably terrible,

secret collected content?

So sexy.

copy of a newspaper article.

"was found two days ago washed
ashore on the Delaware River."

Huh.

Local developer
and philanthropist Kurt Teller

leading to the arrest

and conviction of the person
responsible for Tammy's murder.

Wait, Monroe was an intern
at Teller Developers.

And was a recent hire.

Apparently, Kurt and Rachel
were extremely distraught

at her murder.

Yeah, check this out:
"My contractor business

"is the firm foundation for
my greater development work."

Apparently he's
"staunchly committed

"to refurbishing the city."

SARAH: Wow, quite
the paradigm of altruism.

Wait a second, zoom in
on that image right there.

That's Elmwood.

That's where Marcus lives,
where Devina's body was found.

"Urban renewal project."

Okay...

CASEY: Well, this has to be the
developer Devina was seen with.

So... whoever sent us this

is telling us if Kurt Teller
murdered Tammy Monroe, then...

maybe he killed Devina?

CASEY: And now he's
gotten away with it

not only once, but twice.

There was no real evidence

linking Teller
to Monroe's murder,

so whoever gave this to you
is probably hoping

that we can find that evidence.

I'll look into it.

From the detectives
on Tammy's murder?

Yep, you bet.

Same reason I didn't say
anything to the cops,

gonna ask next.

I didn't want to send them

The day before she died.

Why did you come back?

To help.

And to apologize.

Well, in that case...

I should've told you the truth
before you asked.

One more question...

for now.

business with him.

Okay, calm--
Sarah, calm down.

Okay, bye, bye!

Okay, we're in.

I also have to get some
semblance of studying done.

I'm gonna go,

Are you good?
- Yeah, good as gravy, baby.

I will be on stakeout

Amazing.
I'll see you at 10 am.

Great work this week.

And good work to you too.

The-- yeah.

[clears throat]
Right.

Wow, she really
does not look happy

about the scheduling mistake.

There must have
been a calendar mix-up.

Mrs. Teller will see you now.

RACHEL: My apologies.

I thought someone else
was booked at this time.

I'm Rachel Teller.

And you are...?

Michael Madison.

And this is my wife, Mia.

- How do you do?
- Oh, how cute!

M & M!
[chuckles]

Let me guess,
you had personalized M&M's

at your wedding?

You guessed it!

RACHEL: Please, have a seat.

So, how can I help you?

Well, my wife and I
recently got married.

RACHEL: Congratulations.

- Thank you.
- Thank you, thank you.

And we purchased
a spacious loft in Society Hill.

Oh!
I love that area.

I've always wanted to get
my hands on one of those lofts.

We were hoping
you'd say that.

See, I just don't know
what to do with the space!

Design isn't necessarily
my forte.

RACHEL: Oh, well, you certainly
know how to dress.

Well, actually,
he bought this for me

on our honeymoon in Paris.

He knows how to spoil me rotten.

[giggles] Okay, so tell me
a little about yourselves!

It helps me to know what kind of
aesthetic you're looking for.

Well, we met in...

College.

College, yes,
in our freshman year.

You're adorable!

We really just want
our place to remind us

of our time in Paris.

Mia is a big fan of
the drama of Jacques Garcia.

I am? I am.

I, myself, prefer the design
elements of Jean-Louis Deniot.

RACHEL: No...

Oui, oui!

RACHEL: Oh, I love Deniot!

Okay, look, normally,
I am booked out far in advance,

but I could clear some things

and slot you in
by the end of the month.

Sound good?
[phone buzzing]

Oh, that is so
incredibly kind of you.

Unfortunately,
we need someone who can

get started as soon as possible.

You see, our marketing firm,
it's a startup,

and we have a piece
in New Day Décor;

they need to shoot by the end
of the month in the space,

featuring the designer heavily.
It's a whole thing.

So, is there another designer
that you can recommend?

Someone of your calibre,
of course.

- Of course.
- Hmm...

Okay, let me just have another
look at my calendar here.

Oh, that's weird.

I was supposed to see
Mrs. Purcell this afternoon

for her big installation.

You know, I hear there's
a bug going around.

- I heard that too.
- It's so nasty.

Well, how's today at 2 pm?

- That would be just perfect.
- BOTH: Mm-hm.

RACHEL: Excellent.

Have you picked a colour scheme?

I love Deniot's ability to
mix patterns and textures,

capturing both the masculine
and feminine.

Well, I'm a big fan
of bold pops of colour.

I'm more of a neutral

find a compromise

we both find favourable.

I just want
my bride to be happy.

Aw!

See, he's still sweeping
me off my feet,

even without the acapella.

That's so sweet.
Now, let's discuss bedrooms.

I'm assuming primary,
guest, and...

nursery?

I think we want to
grow our business

for a couple of years,
and then...

I'm sure kids are in our future.

Do you have kids?

No.

Um, my husband and I
tried for years,

but after enough
unsuccessful rounds of IVF,

we decided that a family
was not in our plans.

We bought a boat instead.

- [laughter]
- Oh, nice.

We built two
successful businesses.

We can travel whenever we want.

Things have a way
of working out.

Also, kids cost a lot.

So, enjoy that purse
while you can!

- [laughter]

Oh...

Oh, I need to take this,

but I've seen enough
to get started.

So I'm gonna
leave this with you.

I will get you a mood board
by end of day tomorrow

and have this loft camera-ready
by end of month.

- Thank you so much!

Okay.

Yo, you got stakes in this?

Yeah, I mean, I got hired
to dig into Kurt Teller

on the Devina Adams murder.

I dunno, man,
maybe my intel's off.

Maybe I'm rusty.

Look, if anything pops up,
I will let you know.

Thanks.

LIAM: I swiped
both of Kurt's phones,

downloaded the data,

and then popped those
back onto the crime scene

before the cops arrived.

What does it matter?
He's already dead.

I know, we're not gonna
get a confession, okay?

But I still think
we have a chance

at a really strong case here
with physical evidence.

[phone buzzing]

- Hey, Sarah.
- Hey, talk to us.

SARAH: [phone] No one can know
I'm sharing this.

Kurt's suicide was staged.

Initial analysis from his
trailer shows he was murdered.

- Okay.
- Whoa, what?

PJ: Now I'm really confused.

SARAH: I'm not done.

Kurt's prints from his
water bottle are not a match

to the latent set
on Devina's watch.

Our techs managed to lift
prints from Kurt's neck

and several
from around the trailer.

I'm gonna stay and run them.

I gotta go.

[call hangs up]

ELI: Case, don't even go there.

Those prints could belong
to whoever killed Kurt.

We find that person,
we find Devina's killer.

Look, I'm gonna go out,
start canvassing the area,

see if there's
anything I missed.

You know, Sarah's doing her
due diligence on the prints,

and maybe you guys comb through
the discovery one more time?

Yeah.

- Yeah.
- Yeah.

Just keep your head up, okay?

I always find my guy.

ELI: First year in
the public defender's office,

this is all I did.

Hot tip for ya--
scan in spurts to stay sharp.

[phone buzzing]

Hey, Sarah.

The prints found on Kurt's neck
from the crime scene

are a perfect match to the
latent set on Devina's watch.

But hold on,
because we have still no record

of who those
matching prints belong to.

Great, so that means the person
is A) not in the system

and B)...

They could be
anywhere or anyone.

ELI: What is it?

What are you seeing?

See if you can find
the evidence list,

if your
upperclassman ring's on it.

What?

Well, it's not pictured
here in the evidence,

but she had it six hours
before she was murdered.

Eli?

What's going on?
You good?

Yeah, um...

It's...

[exhales]

It's not there,
because I have it.

SARAH: [on phone]
Are you kidding me?

Sarah, I'm gonna call you back.

- No, no, I want to--
- [call beeps off]

ELI: Can we just...

You said you didn't
see her that day.

I know I did, I know.
Please, listen.

Six hours before
she was murdered,

she was wearing that ring.

The reason it wasn't
pictured with the body

and found with the body
is because you saw her

sometime in those six hours,
and you-- you took the ring.

Can I just please
explain myself?

You lied to us, Eli.
You lied to us again.

No, but I am
telling the truth now.

Why didn't you want anyone
to know you saw her that day?

I went to her house
to confront her

and then we got
into this big fight.

About what?

Eli, answer the question.

She admitted she was
in love with someone else!

Okay?

But she wouldn't say who,
but said that everyone

would know soon and they were
gonna run away together

and there was nothing
I could do to stop her.

So I demanded that she give me
my ring back, and I left.

That was it.

You tell me.

You tell me right now that
you didn't know it was Kurt

this whole time.

No, I swear.

- I don't believe you.
- Oh, Casey.

I don't!
Did Frank know?

I don't know!

Casey, I-I'm telling
you everything...

- No.
- ...right now.

Look, look, I didn't--
I didn't say anything before

because I knew that it
would make me a suspect,

but I also knew
that I didn't kill her!

- How do I know that?
- Are you serious?

You just saw her
the night she was murdered!

Okay, you knew-- you knew
she was having an affair,

so you have a motive,
and you have been lying to us

this entire time!

No, look,
if I am guilty of anything,

it's of protecting myself.

I cannot believe that
I gave you a second chance.

Oh, Casey, come on.
Please, please...

- You need to leave, Eli.

You will never believe

who I pegged outside
just before Kurt's murder.

Wait, hold on,
I'm gonna send you a video.

I'll wait.

[phone buzzes]

[dramatic music]

LIAM: I bet those latent prints
belong to Frank!

Oh my God,
Frank killed Kurt.

So you figured it out?

Frank...

One day, you'll be a parent,
and you'll know

what it feels like
to love someone so much

that if someone hurts them,

you do anything
to make them pay.

I'm sure I would have done
the exact same thing.

Frank, how did you know
it was Kurt?

I didn't.

Until recently.

If I did, I...

I could've saved her.

Before Devina was killed,

she was acting like
a different person.

I thought I was
losing my daughter.

And so I confronted her,
and that's when she told me

that she was in love,
but she wouldn't say who.

Whoever he was,
I knew he was to blame,

so I tried to convince her
to stop seeing him,

to focus on herself, but she was
leaving to go be with him!

So I grabbed her wrist.

This was the last time
I saw her alive.

Frank, you did everything
you could to try and save her.

I wish that was true.

Even after she was murdered,

I was convinced
it was your brother too.

But then I saw you in the cafe.

I couldn't shake what you said.

So I snooped through her stuff,

and that's when
I found out about Kurt.

There was a picture of the two
of them on her bedside table,

and a few notes
that she kept from him.

So I followed him.

And when I saw that
he got into that trailer,

I realized how close he was
to where she was killed.

I paid him a visit.

You confronted Kurt?

Yeah, I didn't
want to hurt him.

I only wanted to know the truth.

But when I asked him
if he killed my daughter,

with that smug look
on his face, he said,

"Your daughter was delusional!

"She was threatening
to blow up our lives!"

And I was recording it
on my phone, and he saw it,

and he attacked me.

And before I knew it, I had
my hands around his throat.

I wanted to see his life
squeezed out of him.

Just like he had done
to my daughter.

He used her and he threw
her away like trash.

Like she was nothing.

And she was my everything.

FRANK: I'm never
gonna see her again.

It's okay.

Frank, I'm sorry.

I don't think "okay"

That actually does help.

Thank you.

Uh, not Eli.
He's out.

Well, he's gotta be back in.

I'm sorry,
I'll explain everything to you

when we get there.

LIAM: I knew there was
something kooky about Rachel,

so I went through the data
on Kurt's phones.

I didn't get a chance
to tell any of you guyses,

because, you know,
I was saving Casey's life.

You didn't save my life.

I... you know.

I was ready to.
- Yeah...

Anywho, Kurt only contacted
other women on his second phone,

but his calls and his texts from
Rachel were on his first phone.

But the night
that Devina was murdered,

Devina got texts from Kurt's
actual phone, his first phone,

asking her to come
to his trailer.

Why would Kurt contact Devina
on his actual phone

that he never used for other
women on that specific night?

Because it wasn't him.

It was Rachel.

Ding, ding, ding!
A+, Casey.

She had access,
she had motive.

Liam, do you happen to have
a copy of Kurt's confession?

CASEY: Oh, you legend.

KURT: [audio] Your daughter
was delusional.

She was threatening
to blow up our lives.

Kurt never said
he killed Devina.

He just alluded that
she got what she deserved.

And we were focused
on Kurt the entire time.

Mm-hm.

That's why I always say,
always follow the wife.

But there's still no solid
evidence connecting Rachel

to the murder, guys.

And unless we get
an eyewitness testimony

placing her at the crime,
or a confession,

Marcus still stays in prison.

Yeah, exactly.

And that's why Michael and Mia

No.
