All language subtitles for High.Potential.S01E12_[English] (SUBRIP)

Hey. Aw. It's okay, boy.

It's okay, boy. I got you. I got you. I got you.

Everything all right?

See, bud? Nothing to worry about. Yeah.

Hey. Hey, hey, hey.

Anson! Come here. Help him.

- Oh, my God. - What happened? Is he breathing?

Anson. Get a medic. Somebody get a medic.

Anson, wake up.

Somebody call for help!

Hey, where are you?

Sorry. Sorry. I'm pulling up right now.

All right. Book in bag. Let's go.

But Anna and Count Vronsky are--

Will be waiting for you. Come on, guys.

- Let's see some hustle. - Oh, yeah. Thanks, Coach.

There was only one checkout lane open in the store,

so the place was a zoo,

but I got everything on the list.

- Elliot, I got your junk cereal. - Cool.

Don't tell your mom.

Ava, I got spearmint gum

that's at the bottom of one of these two bags.

Happy fishing.

And most importantly, fresh diapers for my baby Chloe.

Whoa. Fragrance and dye free? What is it, her birthday?

Well, you make it easy for me

to do my job by paying for everything.

Speaking of which, can you do pickups this afternoon?

- Yeah. - Yeah?

Yeah, I have to move a couple of things arou... But yes. Yep.

Good? Great. I love you. Have a great day. Bye.

- Yeah, love you. - Bye. Have a good one.

Oh. Shut the backdoor when you leave.

Yes, I'm on it. Have a good one.

You thinking poison?

There's no way to know for sure

until I do an autopsy.

But seems the most likely based on what I'm seeing.

Good thing is I don't believe it's an airborne toxin.

I'll call off hazmat.

- Any scene restrictions? - Don't touch anything.

Eyes only until I get a full toxicology done at the lab,

find out exactly what we're really dealing with here.

Gillory, with two L's.

I-I'm sorry. I don't see--

Come on. Hey! Hi! Hi!

She's clear. Let her through.

Thank you. Thank you so much. Have a beautiful day.

Seriously? Airport police?

Morgan.

Yeah, I see him. Who is he?

Anson Pierce.

Founder of a company called Virgo Core Beta Systems.

Just landed from a short flight out of Orange County.

He's a big player in the tech world.

Developed a popular and controversial

social media platform called Enigmafied.

It can turn any video you have into a deepfake within minutes.

A few simple words of direction in Anson's app

can transform images of you

playing with your kids in the park

to you spanking one of your kids in the park.

Wow. Awesome. That's not terrifying at all.

Please tell me Anson wasn't traveling with a pet.

He was. His dog, Edison.

The animal's fine.

It's being evaluated now along with Anson's security team and the pilots.

Go ahead and start processing the inside of the plane.

Yeah.

Geez. Who's that?

- Adam. - Ronnie.

This is FBI Special Agent Oliver.

Respectfully, because this is an FBI investigation--

Says who?

Well, I don't wanna step on anyone's toes here,

but you and I both know that any homicide

originating in US airspace

falls under the jurisdiction of the FBI.

It's too early to determine where the homicide originated.

You know what it's not too soon to determine?

Who our dead guy got in a fight with

back in Orange County on the ground.

I don't think those busted blood vessels are from turbulence.

I'm sorry. Who is she?

I'm standing right here. You could just ask me.

Who are you?

Morgan.

She's a consultant.

I see.

It's nice to meet you, Morgan.

And you're absolutely right.

The petechiae on the victim's neck, it's highly unusual.

Our medical examiner's already arranged

to have the body transported to our morgue.

So if we need any assistance on this case, I'll reach out.

I'm gonna take a peek around the plane, do my thing.

Whoa, whoa, not so fast.

By law, that aircraft is our crime scene.

Only my team should be on the plane for the time being.

Would you kindly ask your detectives to step off, please?

Oz.

Yeah?

Now, look, my concern is

that your medical examiner is gonna quickly discover

that they are ill-equipped to crack the code

on whatever toxin killed our victim,

let alone deduce how it was administered.

- Here we go. - Based on intel and my intuition,

this is not a cyanide-in-a-soup situation.

The is far more sophisticated, okay?

The what of this case will be hard,

but I guarantee you the how will be harder.

Are you finished?

I'm gonna wanna be there for your ME's initial findings.

I'll see you at your precinct.

All right. So...

Not a fan of the feds?

Some guys are better than others.

And what kind of a guy is Ronnie Oliver?

If you like overbearing federal agents

who think they can do no wrong

and wanna call all the shots, Ronnie would be your guy.

So you guys have butted heads before.

Yeah, it's been a while.

Well, he called you Adam.

They only people I've heard call you Adam

are the lieutenant and your mom

- when she called on your birthday. - That was a private call.

- Then don't take it in the bullpen. - Morgan,

not everything is a puzzle you need to solve.

Come on. Clearly, you and this special agent have history.

I need to know what it is so I can be prepared.

Or use it to make fun of you.

He used to be my partner.

That's all I get?

That's all you get.

You really don't think your new partner deserves

to know what happened with your last partner?

You and I are not officially partners.

Not officially, but you and I are both--

Morgan, um...

I need a favor. It's kind of a big one.

- What? - No more questions about Ronnie, okay?

Focus on the case. Can we do that?

- Yes, let's focus on the case. - Thank you.

Anson Pierce has been the subject of controversy

over his social media platform.

It lets users create images and videos that look so real,

it's impossible to tell what's fake and what's not.

Or it can be used to create misinformation

that can impact our politics, destroy reputations

and put people's lives in danger.

Congress has tried to regulate his company for years,

but he has an army of lawyers and lobbyist.

No wonder he needed protection.

Where's his security detail now?

Still in the process of being cleared at the hospital.

We're getting an ETA on when they can come in for questioning.

And if Anson was poisoned on the plane,

that makes them all suspects.

Diana, it's good to see you.

Always a pleasure, Ronnie.

Hold on. They let you in the building?

Lieutenant Soto, so good to see you.

Good to see you.

Wow. It's strange to be back here.

Yeah, strange to have you back.

I hear you're helping us out on one of our cases.

Something like that.

We're waiting on the ME to determine

where the murder took place.

That'll determine jurisdiction.

Shouldn't you have a visitor badge or something if you wanna be up here?

I won't stay long.

I just figured while we wait on your ME's findings,

I'll join you while you question Anson's family and witnesses.

And I'll need the transcripts before I leave.

If it's not too much trouble.

Detective, you mind some company?

Why not?

Gloria, we're very sorry for your loss.

Right now, we're trying to gather as much information as we can.

What can you tell us about your son?

When most kids were out kicking a ball or riding bikes,

Anson wanted to change the world.

He was nine when I realized his brain works

in ways most of ours don't.

- How long ago were they partners? - Sorry.

A few years before you got here.

- It's okay. - Those two set a record

for closing the most cases in a single year.

Take your time.

They were quite the team.

Until they weren't.

It was a rough year for all of us.

Every parent hopes their kid will find something

that they're passionate about.

But you never think for a moment...

that it might make your child a target.

Did Anson ever mention anyone he was concerned about?

All the time.

Jealous competitors, stalkers, every other tech blogger.

I didn't agree with everything Anson did.

What parent does?

But his heart was in the right place.

Mmm.

We're gonna check Anson's calendar and see if we can...

ME just called up. Preliminary autopsy on Anson is finished.

His toxicology screen won't come back for a day or two.

So we can't be totally sure he was poisoned?

Or how.

It could be inhaled, ingested or injected.

And I did find this.

Injection site? That's possible.

But not likely.

- She always like this? - Yes.

Based on how he died,

my guess would be a poison in the anthrax family,

but modified.

Okay, we need to know the makeup of the poison,

so we can determine who might've created it.

Whoever made the poison may not be the person who killed Anson.

Right, but they'll probably remember who they sold it to.

All due respect, we gotta get this body to my people

as soon as possible.

Former navy SEAL, coast guard

and we've got Parker.

SWAT team out of Ventura.

I see you're still carrying your handcuff key, huh?

Yeah, for, uh, good luck.

Guess it wasn't good enough today.

So you have no idea how the guy

you were hired to protect was killed?

Believe me, I wish we did.

You don't know or you're not telling us?

You think we had something to do with it?

Do you know how hard it'll be for any of us to find a job now?

Mr. Pierce died on our watch.

What's more upsetting to you: His life ending or your career?

Hey, I liked Mr. Pierce, but we weren't with him 24/7.

If we knew anything, we'd tell you.

Your boss was a very busy man.

Looks like almost every hour of his last week

is accounted for here on his schedule.

The thing that bothers me is that

every meeting here is so detailed except for this one: Orange County.

Two hours, no location, no name. What's that about?

We don't know.

He had us drive him to an office building downtown.

He asked us to wait in the car.

We're gonna need that address.

- Morgan, you got anything? - Not yet.

What about you? None of those security guards confessed?

No, but there's a two-hour window

before Anson got on his plane

where they claim to have no idea where he was.

Well, that's not nothing.

I'm heading back to the bureau.

I'll have my team look into the backgrounds

of Anson's security team.

As will we.

Okay. And please expedite the body transfer.

Ronnie, I think you should reconsider.

Adam, it's not personal, all right?

I think it's best for my team to handle this investigation without interference.

Things will move a lot faster. Trust me.

Trust you? Really?

Where'd we get this flash drive?

Found it in Anson's jacket pocket.

I had it processed this morning.

- It's not his. - What do you mean?

Anson's first breakthrough in tech was designing

a higher capacity flash drive

his sophomore year at Taft High School.

His company still makes them today.

So, why would he have a flash drive

from one of his competitors in his coat pocket?

- He wouldn't. - Let's see what's on that drive.

Wait. What happened? Is your computer down too?

- I don't know. It just went blank. - What's happened?

What's going on?

What the hell happened?

The hard drive we found on Anson must've had malware

that breached our fire wall.

I'm running every antivirus program I can.

Keep trying till something works.

Someone wanted what this malware's doing to us

to happen to Anson.

And if someone was able to give a hard drive to Anson,

then they were close enough to poison him too.

- Oz, pull any and all CCTV... - Hmm?

...on Anson's whereabouts in Orange County

before he boarded his plane to la.

Whoever gave that flash drive to Anson is our prime suspect.

- Got it. - I'll head to the field office

and get a tech team to do a sweep for satellite video.

Great. We can use all the help we can get.

Until we're back online, there's nothing else we can do here.

You two, go with him.

So, do we need to go over the rules?

- Rules? - Let's just get in, get out,

mine the FBI for any information

we can use on the case, then get back home.

- You worried I'm gonna embarrass you? - Not at all.

I'm just saying let's both be on our best behavior, okay?

Always.

Ma'am, I'm gonna have to ask you to empty your bag.

You got it.

Applesauce.

Agent Oliver.

Everyone, this is Detective Karadec from the LAPD.

- And his consultant... - Gillory. Nice to meet you all.

All right. Rina's one of top profilers

and was about to take us through.

Yeah, great.

Okay. Now, based upon what we know

about Anson Pierce's murder,

and data from a wide range of crimes like this,

I believe the killer was likely a single white male.

Educated but unemployed. Someone in his orbit.

Likely, a professional contact

who had the ability to get close.

Do you have something you wanna add?

Uh...

Just... Yeah, that's definitely a possibility.

You got another one?

Well, I don't have any formal training in profiling--

We know.

Yeah, of course you do.

Let's see.

Based on my own data called "gut instinct,"

given Anson's polarizing views on technology...

I think it is possible that the killer could

be a shut-in who hated Anson.

A Luddite who disliked technology.

Somebody who was pissed off at what the company was doing. Right?

'Cause this just feels like a personal thing to me.

You think my profile's off?

Didn't... Didn't I just explain that?

Tech team just found this.

Enhance that image.

That must be the flash drive we found in Anson's pocket.

Apply facial recognition and run it through the system.

- How long is that gonna take? - Not long.

Already found him.

Simon Keating. Looks like he's unemployed and single.

Nice work, Rina. All right, let's bring this guy in.

When did this happen?

Shortly after you slipped that flash drive into his pocket.

So, did you kill him?

Are you serious?

Yeah, I am. He's dead. And you got real close.

I was just trying to get his attention.

Okay? He didn't understand how much we had in common,

how much I could help him.

I needed Anson to realize that his cybersecurity infrastructure

was being spearheaded by maladroit morons.

I wanted to protect him from the white hats.

They're ethical-minded super hackers

that are not to be trifled with.

So you want me to believe that you're a hacker

who tried to protect Anson from other hackers by hacking him?

Not quite that simple, but close enough.

You know what else is not so simple?

The poison that killed Anson.

The good news is his body's landing

at our toxicology lab within the hour.

Which means we'll get to the bottom of what toxin was used

and who used it real soon.

We'll keep you in holding until then.

Plenty of sunshine and blue skies on tap for you...

Don't shoot.

Okay, okay. All right.

What's happening?

I don't think Rina the profiler and I are gonna be friends.

Yeah, well, you know, Morgan,

I think the fact that Anson's body just got blown up

might take precedence.

That's fair.

Guys, please, tell me we got a lead

on whoever attacked our coroner.

CSI is processing the scene. So far, nothing.

Not a single witness? Nothing?

Anson's body should've never come here in the first place.

No one could've anticipated this would happen, Ronnie.

It's becoming painfully clear that some things never change.

- What's that supposed to mean? - It means stop being so stubborn

and admit you made the wrong call.

The wrong call about what?

Staying on this case. My team doesn't need assistance!

It's causing too many problems!

We don't gotta turn this into some kinda contest.

Contest? We're doing our jobs same as you.

- Oz, right? - Yeah.

Do me a favor. Stay in your lane.

And you do me a favor.

Show us some respect in our house.

You don't live here anymore.

- Daphne-- - No. That is my partner you're talking to.

Choose your words carefully.

That sounds like a warning, Detective.

- How perceptive. - Lieutenant, you gonna step in here?

No.

Maybe we should all just get back to work.

Oh. Good idea.

Let me hit somebody at the bureau to see if they can help

put Anson's body back together piece by piece.

I don't know if I ever mentioned it to you guys,

but I was in labor for two hours

with my third baby before she popped out.

There she was, brand-new person in the world.

The point is, a lot can happen in 120 minutes.

So instead of doing whatever this is that you guys are doing,

maybe we circle back to that mystery meeting

that Anson had the day before he died.

Yeah, because poisoning Anson

and orchestrating an attack to destroy evidence

feels like a lot for one person to pull off.

And Simon's been in holding all day and couldn't have done it.

You think our killer was working with a partner?

I do. So maybe whoever Anson met in that two-hour time window

is the one who poisoned him.

Okay, so are we compiling a list of experts

who could make a poison like the one that killed Anson?

Do you really think I don't already have a digital dossier

with multiple suspects waiting for me back at the field office?

Keeping things from us is not going to help solve this case.

Oh, and you think sharing confidential files with,

I don't know, a consultant, will?

Yes, it will. So, tag her in and let her show you what she can do.

You know, It's starting to feel like when I left this place,

you lost your mind.

You know what, Ronnie? I'll make you a deal.

You show us all your intel,

and if we come up empty, we'll back off the case.

What do you say?

Meet me in my office.

You come up short, you're out.

Look, I don't care who gets credit for solving this case,

I just want it solved.

Don't let personal feelings get in the way

of figuring out who killed Anson.

- I hear you, but-- - But what?

The FBI has information that we need to see, Selena.

That Morgan needs to see.

How else are we gonna get our hands on it

unless I offered up something in return?

Fine. I know your history.

If you have something to prove,

you better not let it get in the way of this case.

I will never let that happen.

But right now, we're just a distraction for him,

especially Morgan.

He sees her exactly the same way I used to

before I realized how valuable she really is.

And I know it's a big risk, but it's one I'm willing to take.

Let's hope it pays off.

All right, Morgan.

Here's a handful of terabytes of information to sift through.

Terabytes. Of course.

You sure you wanna do this?

Oh, yeah. Piece of cake.

What else can you tell her about the intel before she dives in?

There are roughly a dozen toxicologists

on our radar for various reasons.

My team is still in the process of discovering

which one might've had motive to kill Anson.

- Hopefully I can help. - All right. Have at it.

All right. I think I've seen enough.

It's already morning. Maybe we should get some rest.

You know, there is such a thing as too much information.

I just wish I had something a little more concrete.

Well, What about him? You keep circling back

to this guy over and over again. Why?

Kenneth Sutton was a board-certified medical toxicologist

at California Poison Control for a decade.

He quit three years ago and went off the grid after his daughter died.

Her name was Julie.

- What happened to her? - She took her own life

when misinformation was spread

about her on Anson's AI platform.

- he was 24. - Okay, well, there's motive.

Yeah, and the FBI went and visited Kenneth

right after Anson's murder.

Did they? It would've been nice if they'd shared that information with us.

Yeah. And here's the weird thing.

According to their files,

Kenneth only left his apartment on Wednesdays

to go put flowers on his daughter's grave.

You mean no other contact with the outside world?

It doesn't look like it.

And Ronnie's team pulled these photos

from the surveillance cameras at the Verdugo Hills Cemetery.

That's it. There's no other record of him going anywhere

on any other day.

Why would you wear gloves to put flowers on a grave?

- You wouldn't. - He's not wearing gloves

at any of these other cemetery visits.

Only this one.

And look at the date.

That's two days before Anson's murder.

I think he was wearing gloves to protect himself from the poison

that he hid in the flowers.

Poison he put there so somebody else could come and pick it up

and kill Anson with it.

I don't know how, but I think you did it.

- Let's go talk to Kenneth. - Yeah.

Good morning.

Hey. How's everyone doing over there?

Uh... We're all good here.

Just, uh, trying to feed our little lady before I do drop-off.

Be right there.

Um... Bet you can imagine why I'm calling.

How late are you gonna be?

It's tough to say.

Are you kidding me?

Are you sure everything's all right?

Yeah, yeah. Uh...

Just, um...

I don't think I can stay over again tonight.

That's okay. I should be home by dinner at the latest.

I... I can't clear my whole schedule.

Ludo, I know this is a lot,

but it's kinda what we both signed up for.

No, I know, I know. You're right.

I got it.

Okay. All right, I'll see you tonight.

Mm-hmm.

It's Ronnie. Leave a message.

Hey, Ronnie. We're pretty sure

we know who made the poison that killed Anson.

Guy named Kenneth Sutton. 75 Edenhurst, apartment 406.

We're just getting there now.

Call me back.

Kenneth Sutton.

Detective Adam Karadec, LAPD.

Need to ask you a couple of questions

about the death of Anson Pierce.

- I already spoke to the FBI. - Yeah, we know you did.

But they didn't ask about the gloves you were wearing the other day

when you went to put flowers on your daughter's grave.

We know why you wanted Anson dead.

You blamed him for your daughter's suicide.

Kenneth. Kenneth! Freeze!

Kenneth!

- There he is. - Hey, freeze!

No, no, don't do it! Your leg will never make it!

Oh, my God!

Damn it, Kenneth.

Let's see what Kenneth's apartment has to say.

This feels awful.

Did you know that deepfake video

of Julie was only 31 seconds long?

It took one bully less than a minute

to ruin her life with Anson's app.

Yeah, that's the world we live in now.

Well, please remind me to throw my 15-year-old daughter's phone

in the trash when I get home.

Looks like your profile on the killer was right.

A shut-in who hated Anson.

Yeah, but I don't think I could've predicted he was a butterfly.

- A butterfly? - Yeah.

Everyone has got a different organizing style.

Like, ladybugs prefer to have lots of storage

to hide their mess.

Now, bees.

Bees build their hives very structured and efficient.

So the bee organizing style is much more methodical.

Whereas crickets like to have things very neat and orderly,

with just a couple of sentimental items front and center.

Mmm. And, uh, what's a butterfly?

Butterflies like to have everything out in the open

so there's quick and easy access to everything.

Much like Kenneth does. Or did.

Now, I am a ladybug and you, my friend, you're a cricket.

- Morgan. - We can talk about it later.

- Or never. - I'll probably squeeze it in somewhere.

So while it might look on the outside

like Kenneth was a pack rat, he's not.

Everything here was important to him. Everything had purpose.

Well, let's just hope we can find something here

which leads us to whoever he was working with.

No TV, no computer.

No technology of any kind,

so he must've been partnering with somebody who's tech-savvy,

someone like Simon.

Looks like the FBI just landed.

I'll handle this. Should be fun.

Tell me it's not true. Our suspect is dead?

We tried to stop it.

You shouldn't have tried anything!

I called you. You didn't answer.

As I predicted, Morgan came through.

Now we're even further away from solving this case.

Or are we one step closer to solving this case?

What? You got a confession before he jumped?

Ronnie.

Come on, brother.

We can't keep working like this.

I can admit maybe I was letting some of the past get in the way

of how I was handling the case.

That's on me.

But the bottom line is, this thing that we're doing,

it's not good for either side.

There shouldn't be any sides, man!

I walked right into that one, didn't I?

You know, I still know you pretty well.

And that's why I know you wanna solve this case

just as badly as we do and for all the right reasons.

Just like we used to do back in the day. Hmm?

You were always the calm one.

Apparently, I still am.

All right, man. Look, let's just, uh, process the scene,

see if we can find anything

that leads us to whoever Kenneth was working with.

Hey, Morgan. Ronnie's team is pulling security footage

from Verdugo Hills Cemetery to see who picked up that poison.

Great.

Let's just hope whoever it was didn't know there were security cameras,

or they would've made sure we couldn't get a good look at 'em.

Yeah, here's hoping.

You miss it, don't you?

Being his partner.

It's okay. I'm not gonna have hurt feelings if you do.

Yeah. Yeah, I guess I do miss the guy.

I mean, he was more than my partner. He was my friend.

So, you just don't like how it ended?

We had a few bad seeds in the department

who wanted to see the two top detectives go down.

Some evidence went missing from one of our cases,

pretty large sum of money from the crime scene.

I guess it looked like we were on the take.

Okay, you don't wanna talk about it.

That's okay.

It was an honest mistake, Morgan.

The money was incorrectly logged into the evidence file.

One wrong digit, a nine that should've been a zero,

and it looked like we had stolen the money.

Things got messy, rumors started flying,

Ronnie saw an opportunity at the FBI and he took it.

Took it and ran. Left me to clear both of our names,

which I did.

Weathered the storm, but I definitely got wet.

People around here didn't look at me the same

for a long time after that.

- Even though you didn't do anything wrong? - Mm-hmm.

And Ronnie, he was gone.

Wait a minute.

What's this? What are you...

What are you doing? What's your face doing?

Pretty sure that's what my face looks like when I've got something.

Do you have something?

We thought Anson was in some kind of altercation

the day he died, right?

Yeah. What, you don't?

I mean, if he didn't mention it to his security team,

the team he paid to keep him safe,

then maybe these marks on his body...

weren't from a fight.

Ah. Oh...

You think he was in a different kind of encounter.

One where he was a willing participant?

Well, that two-hour mystery meeting.

Sounds like we need to talk to the person

he was meeting with in Orange County.

Yeah. I'm gonna get Ronnie's help on this.

Have him get some footage of the back exit of the office building.

I think that Anson was just passing through

on his way to a more comfortable spot for his "meeting."

Oh. Adam and Morgan, welcome back.

Nice work to our partners at the LAPD

who helped to lead us to Aria Vale.

She checked into The Borzi Hotel in Orange County

- the night before Anson's death. - What do we know about her?

Well, she runs a nonprofit

that tries to regulate AI in online technology.

And she made no secret about her desire

to shut down Anson's company.

We think she might have found another way to shut him down.

- Yeah. - I have so many questions for this woman.

Well, so do I. Which is why I have a team

tracking her down as we speak.

- Give me a second. - Mm-hmm.

- Hi. - Mom. It's Dad.

- He-- He just-- - Wait. Elliot?

Honey, slow down. What's going on?

He just collapsed.

What? Is he breathing?

You know what? I'm gonna call 911, okay?

No. No ambulance. It's okay. I'm fine.

He keeps saying no. What do you want us to do?

Keep an eye on him, all right? Everything's gonna be okay.

I'll be right there.

Thanks.

Hey. Are you okay?

I think I recognize that voice.

Is that the mother of my children?

- What happened? - I got lightheaded and I fainted.

But I'm fine, really.

- Okay. Is Chloe down? - Yeah, she's asleep.

- Where's Elliot? - He's outside on the porch.

Okay. Can you give us a second?

Mm-hmm.

- Do you... you wanna talk about it? - Not really. No.

Look, I was probably dehydrated and didn't eat enough food.

- But I'm good now. - I'm sorry.

Why are you sorry? None of this is your fault.

I'm just having you do so much with the kids,

and you're really picking up the slack around here.

- I just feel really bad-- - Yeah, because I want to.

When you and I split up,

we agreed we're gonna remain a family no matter what.

That's what I'm doing.

I know. And I couldn't do this without you.

And I don't want to.

I feel the same.

Thanks.

I'm gonna go check on Elliot.

Yeah, please do. I think he's a little freaked out.

I know that the two of you remember everything

that ever happened,

but if you can find a way to erase the memory

of his father face-planting on the kitchen tile,

I'd really appreciate it.

Sorry I missed it.

You need a blanket out here?

I'm okay.

That was pretty scary, huh?

Yeah. You know what? Your dad is just fine.

But I'll have him go to the doctor tomorrow,

just to be safe.

They should probably order an MRI, or an echo.

I read that dizziness could be a sign of a silent heart attack,

or a coronary spasm that can lead to a myocardial infarction.

The Internet's a dangerous place.

Apparently, so is our kitchen.

You're worrying, I can tell.

It's okay. I'm worried too.

- You are? - Oh, yeah.

Sometimes my mind can take me to places I don't wanna go.

Does that ever happen to you?

It did today.

Yeah, thoughts are hard to control.

You know, especially when you've got a brain like you and I do.

But we are in charge.

And the trick is to focus on the stuff that you do want,

not the stuff that you don't.

I don't think I can.

It's not always easy. I know.

But I guess we gotta ask ourselves,

do we wanna be scared,

or do we want to notice all of the wonderful things

that are happening right around us?

Like what?

Like the fact that my son called me today

'cause his dad needed help, and that made me so proud.

Like the fact that we're all here tonight

under one roof, safe and sound.

But for tonight, you're all mine.

And I'm grateful for that.

Me too.

Okay, okay, I can't breathe.

You can breathe fine.

If you couldn't breathe, you wouldn't be able to talk.

Anson felt that you were resisting

the inevitable evolution

of humans and technology together.

He said, quote, "Aria Vale fears the inevitable and hates freedom."

Look, we met up a few times to try to find common ground.

And?

We both decided that we were wasting each other's time.

- Here it comes. - Here comes what?

One word.

You familiar with the Getty kouros?

The ancient sculpture?

Well, people thought it was,

until a famous art scholar by the name of Pierre Paul

took one look at it and uttered one word,

"fake."

No proof, just his intuition.

Old Pierre had the ability to identify what was real

and what wasn't based on a gut feeling.

Okay.

I can do it too.

You know what word comes to mind when I see you?

"Liar."

Now you're acting surprised.

It never gets old.

And I ain't buying that either.

So what do you say? You ready to start telling me the truth?

During one of our meetings, things got heated.

That's how he got the bruises on his neck and wrists?

Yes.

A collar and wrists restraints.

You know, a guy dies from poison just hours after you saw him.

I didn't poison him.

Well, can you explain this?

That's from my earring.

It poked him, and we laughed about it.

Anything else you wanna tell me?

Yeah.

I think I need a lawyer.

Based on cell tower triangulation,

neither Simon nor Aria came anywhere near Julie's grave

in the days leading up to Anson's murder.

Hmm. So neither of them are the person in this photo

retrieving the poison.

You know, unless maybe they pulled that trick

that we came across with our suspect

in the Pawn Shop homicide case?

He left his cell at home to shore up his alibi. Remember that one?

Oh, you mean Abe's Smoke Shop murder on Crenshaw Boulevard.

No, I'm certain it was Mr. P's Pawn on Centinela.

- You wanna make this interesting? - What are we making interesting?

Welcome back. Is Ludo okay?

Yes. Thank you. Where are we?

We're still trying to connect Aria or Simon to Kenneth.

Yeah, but I think it may be time to open it up to other suspects.

I just don't buy that Kenneth didn't have more contact

- with whoever he was working with. - Yeah. I agree.

But there's no evidence that he met with anyone else.

I mean, we checked his friends, his family, his colleagues.

But Kenneth was a butterfly.

- A what? - His organizing style.

Everything in his place had purpose.

See these books right here?

I mean, they look completely untouched.

Hard copies still wrapped in plastic.

- Louisa May Alcott. - You familiar?

Enough to know one of her most famous quotes.

"It takes two flints to make a fire."

Yeah, I think those books belonged to Kenneth's daughter.

Parker had a flint hanging on his key chain,

most likely a gift from Julie.

I bet there's more than just a spark

between him and our Louisa May Alcott enthusiast.

I think Julie and Parker were in a relationship when she died.

Okay. So you're saying Kenneth and Parker hatched a plan

to kill Anson in retribution for Julie's death.

Makes perfect sense.

Parker had the credentials to work his way onto Anson's security detail.

And we know Kenneth made the poison.

Kenneth had dog collars in his apartment but no dog.

I bet the poison was placed in the dog collar

and hidden inside the flowers

that Kenneth left at Julie's grave.

Parker must've picked up the flowers

and put the collar on Anson's dog,

which made contact with his skin on the flight.

Time for him to tell us.

- Karadec, we got a big problem. - How big?

My apprehension team just made it to Parker's hotel.

He must have seen us coming 'cause he's long gone.

Can you do some sort of satellite facial tracking or something?

- Yeah, already in the works. - Screen two.

Our problem is about to get a whole lot bigger

if he's heading back to the Valley airport.

Anson's jet is still there. He could be making a run for it.

We'll tag in TSA to stop him.

- Forrester. - Daphne, I need you here. Now.

Got it. On my way.

Hey.

No communication with air traffic control. Understand?

All right.

Just like old times.

And new times.

Let's just hope this plan works.

Let's go, let's go!

How long till we're in the air?

Five minutes or so.

Daphne, how we looking?

We're doing our best. Simon's a little frazzled.

This is incredibly challenging.

Keep trying. We're running out of time.

Yeah, I can see that.

- Come on! Go, go! Go! - Okay, okay, okay, okay.

- What did you do? - Nothing. Nothing, I swear.

- Why did that happen? - I don't know. Everything just shut down.

- Freeze! - Hold it!

- Drop it! - Drop the weapon now!

- Put the weapon down! - Parker, put the gun on the ground.

Do it! Now!

Unless you wanna meet Kenneth on the other side.

- Team, move in. - You're covered.

Stay on him.

Cuff him.

All right, move.

First time hacking into the motherboard of an airplane?

First and last.

Pretty nice view, right?

I've seen better.

Here. Souvenir.

You know, I almost took one of these earlier.

Almost.

Thanks.

I'm sure you saw the press release from Anson's mother.

- I did. - Yeah.

Well, it looks like she's gonna lobby

to regulate all of her son's platforms.

Hopefully there's not another tragedy

like Julie's in the future.

Amen to that.

I'm sorry, Adam.

I probably should've said that a while ago,

but turns out I'm even more stubborn than you are.

Yeah, man, I...

I saw an exit, and I took it.

And I left you to clean up the mess for both of us,

which you did.

But in many ways,

you're the reason I'm here.

Nah, you would've still made it on your own,

even without my help.

Yeah, probably would've.

- But I still owe you one. - No, you do not.

I do.

Which is why I'd like to put in a word for you

with the special agent in charge.

So, what do you say?

Morgan, I need to tell you something.

Hmm?

Ronnie offered me a job.

He wants to partner with me again.

- Wow. - Hmm.

- What did you say? - I said no.

Okay, when I worked at the DMV,

and a big rig driver named Rufus

suggested that I'd be a pretty decent long-hauler...

- Hmm-hmm. - ...I at least slept on it

before I told him, "Absolutely not."

I don't need to sleep on it. This is where I wanna be.

And I have a new partner now.

- What did you just say? - You heard me.

I mean, plus, you saw the FBI, Morgan.

I mean, the gadgets, the tech,

the bells, the whistles, it would...

It would make our job way too easy, wouldn't it?

Yeah, yeah.

I mean, how we gonna, you know, take all the credit

and brag about everything if the computers are doing all the work?

That's what I'm saying.

All right. Well...

Then I guess I'll see you tomorrow, partner.

I'll be here.

Yeah.

This seems like a bad idea.

I don't think you have enough information to determine that.

Hey, hey, no peeking.

I'm not! I'm not.

Okay. Ready?

Take it off.

Ta-da!

Oh! I thought I smelled tacos.

Mom even got those nachos with the disgusting cheese you like.

It's called Queso Oaxaca.

She's letting us eat on the coach. And we're watching 2001?

A Space Odyssey? With all of us?

If the kids can get through the monkey part.

It's not a documentary, is it?

Oh, God forbid you learn something.

Thank you.

You got it.

We're all so busy.

We gotta remember to slow down and appreciate each other.

- Mm-hmm. - I'm glad you're okay, Dad.

Hey, me too, buddy.

- Can I press play? - Go nuts.

- Oh, boy. - Ew. No. Gross.

Use a fork or something. Seriously, who raised you?

I had nothing to do with it.

Don't look at me. That is kinda gross, buddy. Here.

Oh, my God. What have I gotten myself into?

So good, right?

Mmm.
