Previously on Proven Innocent...

What happened between you and Rosemary?

You're afraid of me?

It is my privilege

to announce the candidacy

of Evan Esteban-Miller

for the attorney general of Ill...

Are the rumors true
about your marriage?

But aren't you tired of
hiding our relationship?

- Aah!
- I'm a cop, Bodie.

There's more to your
identity than just prison.

There is, huh?

And what would that be?

I missed you.
You were the first love of my life.

We spent a long time together.

Those were the best years of my life.

You can't be serious.
The police can't find her?

You're letting them get away with that.

Your Honor, give me two days.

My investigator will bring
her right to this spot,

just please don't dismiss this case.

Miss Scott, I already decided.

I have filed countless affidavits.

I have multiple witnesses,
and I have laid out

in exact detail what Mrs.
Ramirez said to me,

has said to dozens of people.

How she and her family have
been harassed, intimidated,

threatened with jail time

and deportation,
and now suddenly they can't find her?

You can't be okay with that.

- Miss Scott, that's enough.
- Put me on the stand.

- I'll tell you what happened.
- I said that's enough.

Or better yet, call the corrupt police

who continue to harass

and intimidate my witnesses.
That includes

and is particularly directed
to Detective Falcone

and his flunkies, who seem

to conveniently have the entire
legal system just wrapped around

their fat little fingers.

It's absolutely outrageous.

You know what? You people make me sick.

One more word and I
hold you in contempt.

Yeah, well, I hold you in contempt.

Feel better now?

Yeah, just about.

You know, I'll deny I ever said it,

but a part of me...
a very small part of me...

- relaxes in here.
- Yeah,

it's like Tahiti,
without the everything.

The iron bars,

the rules and regulations...
it's familiar.

You keep picking fights
with Judge Riley,

you'll never have to leave.

He's one of the judges that
still thinks you're guilty.

He's also a misogynist pig.

Who runs unopposed every six years.

Easy, their key witness was
paid off by a corrupt cop

to lie on the stand.

And Falcone's gonna keep paying off

witnesses unless we stop him.

So what are you saying, you want
to take down Detective Falcone?

Exactly. Let's expose him for
the corrupt cop that he is.

You know, I bet if we took him down,

dozens of his wrongful
convictions would be tossed out.

Falcone is a high-level cop
with friends in high places.

Taking him down would
require an IAD investigation.

Or just one case,
one solid witness to expose him.

You want to start a war.

We're already fighting the war, Easy.

Let's friggin' win it.

I just need you to post my bail first.

It's what I live for.

There are many people
who feel the justice system

is rigged against them,
and sometimes it actually is.

Yes, most police officers
are proud citizens

who truly want to protect the public,

but there are a few

who will lie, cheat, and steal

for their own interests,
and those are the ones

who are responsible for so
many wrongful convictions.

On this week's episode
of Until Proven Innocent,

we will tell the story

of one corrupt cop

and our attempt to bring him down.

May I help you?

Uh, I'm looking for a lawyer.

Sometimes a ninja is more effective.

Whatever gets my brother out of jail.

Oh, to get your brother out of jail?

Yeah, you need a lawyer. Come on.

- Come with me.
- I just read that you got

arrested for contempt, and I thought

you'd be the perfect person

- to take a look at my brother's case.
- Why?

The same detective that
railroaded your client

did the same thing to my brother.

Falcone?

What happened to your brother?

He was blamed for bombing a synagogue

15 years ago,
which he had nothing to do with.

There was no evidence
tying him to the scene.

What was the prosecution's theory

for why he'd blow up a synagogue?

That's where it gets
a little complicated.

Um, my brother is Ronnie Petersen.

Yeah, we know this case.

Your brother's a white supremacist.

H-He was a white supremacist,

but he isn't like that anymore.

He's totally reformed.

And, most importantly,
he didn't bomb that synagogue.

Falcone pinned it on Ronnie
because he wouldn't help him.

Nick, man, you seem like a nice guy,

but I don't know if you noticed...
I'm a black man

in these here United States of America.

So why would I even touch your case?

Every lawyer that I've ever spoken to

has kicked me out in minutes.

But I just thought, since you
lost it in court over Falcone,

you might want to hear
how he framed Ronnie.

Falcone paid three people

to say my brother was the bomber.

We appreciate you coming in.
But, reformed or not,

we're not in the white
supremacist business.

Neither is my brother.

I mean, he hates who he was.

Even now, he is trying to change

the way that those
guys think in prison,

and he is constantly getting
his ass kicked for it.

It breaks my heart.

People thought you were
a sex-crazed Satanist,

but you weren't.

Everyone deserves a second chance,

especially the ones who
regret their bad choices.

Please, just look at it.

White power!

America first! White power!

America first! White power!

America first! White power!

America first! White power!

White power!

We need to take this country back!

Purify our nation!

White pow...

So, after we free
Ronnie, can we can try

to posthumously exonerate Himmler?

Nick swears his brother
is reformed now.

I don't know, maybe miracles do happen.

But, yes, it's hard to believe.

Plus, it wouldn't be
a good look for us.

Even if he did change somehow,
people wouldn't get it.

That being said,

finding a way to expose
Falcone is music to my ears.

You guys, we can find another
case to go after Falcone for,

if we really want to nail him.

We're not actually entertaining
this, are we?

Under normal circumstances,
I wouldn't touch this case.

It's the wrongfully convicted
part that has my attention.

Justice is justice, right?

Yeah, as a white man,
I think maybe I should just shut up.

- Maybe we just meet with him.
- Why? For what?

For them.

These are Falcone's corrupt
cases, right?

More than half of them relied
on his paid-off witnesses,

and, unfortunately,
none of them are anywhere near

as obviously corrupt as this one.

Yep, and, in this
case, the only evidence

that's convicting Petersen

is the false eyewitness testimony.

So if we get one of those
witnesses to recant,

we have a direct line
to taking Falcone down.

What happened to shutting up?

It would just be a meeting, Vi.

Exactly. No promises.

Madeline and I will meet with him.

If he doesn't check out, we'll move on.

Well, I didn't blow up anything.

I swear to you.

Never did it.

Your brother's theory
is that the witnesses

who testified against you
were set up by a dirty cop.

That's exactly what happened.

And I was... easy to frame,

because I was,

you know, part of the
organization that did this.

But I don't associate
with those people anymore.

Turned my back on all that.

What brought the change of heart?

I was just so... young and stupid

when I got sucked into it.

These guys, they made me think
that my anger was justified.

Mm.

That my family was poor
because of Jews and...

black people.

Couple years locked up in here,

started realizing how wrong I'd been.

All that hate I'd spewed
at my little brother.

I'm just...

I just thank God Nick never
got caught up in that.

I just wish I could
have those years back.

You know? But I...

I spilled the milk
and made a mess and...

...now I got to
try my best to clean it up.

My name is Easy Boudreau.

I'm born and bred on
the bayous of Louisiana.

If we take your case,

I'd be sitting first chair,

if that's okay with you.

I am more than okay with
that, Mr. Boudreau.

It would be a downright honor.

I'm Madeline Scott.

I'm just a white woman.

That okay, too?

Ah, gosh, this blows my mind.

The people who should hate me the most

are actually the ones
who are embracing me now.

It really is beautiful.

And I am so grateful that you
came here and heard me today.

He have any intel on Ronnie?

Well, he's been here a long time.

From what he tells me, Ronnie is legit.

Maybe a leopard can change its spots.

So, could be worth it to try
to get those other people out?

I don't know,
but I guess we'll find out.

Violet, I'm with you 100%.

I don't like it.

But we have a real shot

at getting a bunch of these people out.

You won't handle an abortion case,

but you'll represent
a white supremacist?

People can change.

Some even deserve
redemption and forgiveness.

You and I both know that
that kind of hate runs deep.

Redemption only happens
when you actually repent.

- He's conning you.
- You may be right.

He was awful. Maybe he still is.

But maybe we have to live with
that for the greater good.

It's a public display
of our principles.

We fight for the innocent,
no matter who they are.

He may have a horrible past,

but he may also be innocent.

So what about Charlottesville
and all of the other

hateful white supremacist
rallies that are happening

all over this country?

It's not interesting, Easy. It's wrong.

This man does not deserve our time

- or our talents.
- I hear you,

but being a hothead
won't change the world.

We have an opportunity
to do something big.

Ronnie Petersen goes around
calling us the N-word

and burning crosses,
but somehow I'm the hothead?

I'm out.

Okay. So, we're, um...

we're tracking down Detective Falcone's

witnesses in your case.

First thing I do when I get out

is I'm gonna have these removed.

- I hear it's painful.
- Good.

I deserve it.

You know, it's crazy, isn't it, just...

how all this hate over nothing

can literally tear a country apart?

What we don't understand, we fear.

And fear and isolation breed
hatred, and...

hatred roots in people.

I think you're right.

Here I am,

just sitting here with you,

normal as can be.

15 years ago,
I couldn't even imagine this.

You know, the key to your case

is proving the witnesses lied.

So... tell me about your alibi.

It's disgusting.

I was about two hours
away from that synagogue.

Soaking burlap in Klan cologne.

Getting everything ready
for a cross burning

we were gonna do that night.

Sounds like there were a lot of people

who could vouch for you.

Why didn't they?

Most of them had records.

And everyone knew that Falcone
was gonna be framing me,

so they was just glad it wasn't them.

We only need one.

Mm.

Well, I did have a
girlfriend at that time.

So, if we find her,
do you think she'll help?

I don't know.

As I remember it,
she was pretty hateful back then, too.

Hmm. All right.

Bodie tracked down one
of those false witnesses,

Dante Jordan, and he's on
the streets finding him now.

Levi? Why are you here?

Hey, sis.

- What?
- I found Toby Kissell.

You said that there was an
Adderall ring in high school,

right, that-that Rosemary
was secretly taking...

that Toby was the guy that
was selling the Adderall?

- So?
- So maybe that's why he killed her.

Cheers. Come on, drink up.

- Come on. Finish the whole...
- Don't rush me.

- Come on. Cheers.
- Oh!

What if he was her dealer?

You know,
then he's hooking up with her?

Then he lies about us at our trial?

Levi went berserk

after he caught me and
Rosemary in the tent kissing.

He said that he was mad at Rosemary,

that he wanted to kill that bitch.

Nothing further.

He lied about us.

I mean, why would he say
something like that in court

unless he was trying to hide something?

Huh?

All right.

Yeah. There could be something there.

- We should talk to him.
- Okay, good. I found him.

He's-he's living in Evanston.
I say we go there now.

I can't today.
I have a case I'm dealing with.

Okay, fine.
I'm heading up there myself, then.

'Cause, sis, I'm gonna prove to you

I did not kill her.

Oh!

Toby Kissell?

Almost didn't recognize you there.

- Hey, Levi, uh...
- Hey.

What are you... doing around here?

Oh, I'm looking for you.

What's it been... like, 17 years?

- Yeah?
- What can I, uh, do for you?

I'm just tracking down old
friends, you know.

I mean, we-we are old friends, right?

Yeah. Sure.

All that trial stuff is
water under the bridge?

Well, aside from the ten
years that my sister and I

spent in prison, yeah, sure.

Yeah, well, I-I should go.

Hey, tell me something, Toby...
what-what have you been doing

with the last ten years
of your life, huh?

You got, like, a wife,
you have family, kids?

Uh, I'm divorced. No kids.

Wow. That's a shame.

You were, like,
top dog in high school, you know?

Different girl every week.

Slinging Adderall to all the kids.

- I sell insurance now.
- Ooh.

Anyway, I, uh... I should go.

We should talk. We should catch up,

you know, about old times.

I don't know, like,
maybe like what happened

the night that Rosemary
Lynch got murdered.

Everybody's moved on from that.
It was a long time ago.

Yeah, except for when
you're sitting in jail

for a crime you didn't commit.

Then time just kind of stands
still, Toby.

I keep replaying that-that
night over and over again

in my mind,
and I-I can't quite figure out

why you lied on the stand.
Did you kill her?

- Huh?
- What?

Was it because of the Adderall ring?

- Because she was gonna expose you?
- No, of course I didn't.

- Did you kill her?
- Stay the hell away from me!

This is our first debate

in the race for Illinois
attorney general.

On my right is Cook County
State's Attorney Gore Bellows.

On my left,

former prosecutor Evan Esteban-Miller.

Welcome to you both.

Our first question is for Mr. Bellows.

Voters believe that police misconduct

is still a major concern.

If elected attorney general,

how will you address this issue?

I think transparency is the key.

I plan to implement several programs

both for citizens and for the police,

whose lives are still being sacrificed

on our streets every day.

But more importantly,
it will rebuild the trust

between the community and
the police department.

Because a relationship
can't survive without trust.

Mr. Esteban-Miller, same question.

Fact:

last year over 6,000
complaints were filed

against the police in Chicago,

but only two percent

resulted in disciplinary action
for the officers involved

under the office of Attorney Bellows.

Yes, let's-let's blame that on
me, too. I mean,

- that-that's entirely bogus.
- 98 to two,

- it's clear which side
- Police disciplinary action

- Attorney Bellows is on.
- has nothing to do...

As attorney general, I plan to work

with the police unions and the city

to modify policies so that we can flip

those numbers.

Because transparency isn't just key.

It's often a matter of life and death.

I think it went well.

That's 'cause you're an idiot.

You weren't prepared.

Now maybe you'll
listen to me next time.

Holy wow, Gore. That was mediocre.

What did you say to my husband?

Oh, that he's a train wreck.

Yeah, you got to come out guns blazing

to change the narrative. It was bad.

Thank you, Susan. That's enough.

Ugh.

Dante Jordan?

Bodie Quick.

I'm with the Injustice Defense Group.

Look, we need to talk to
you about Ronnie Petersen.

Aw, I'm wearing the wrong shoes.

Hey.

I think the word is out that
we're going after Falcone.

Yeah.

I know.

Well?

- Message sent.
- Good.

Appreciate you looking out.

What's Detective Falcone got on
you, buddy?

No idea what you're talking about, man.

Come on. Six trials, you told

the jury exactly what Detective Falcone

wanted you to say.

That's perjury. You can go to
jail for a long time for that.

What do you want from me, man?

15 years ago,
the Ronnie Petersen trial,

you gave false testimony.
Falcone paid you to do it.

Now we need you to tell the judge that.

No, man. No, man. Look, he... look,

h-he doesn't even pay me anymore, man.
He doesn't pay me.

He just threatens to lock me
up if I don't do what he wants.

Right. Well, we're taking Falcone down.

You want the threats to end?

You got to help us out.

Well, this is a very
well-written puff piece.

It's absolutely wonderful
in its frivolity.

- Come on. I mean, it's not that bad.
- Oh, it's bad.

I can't print this.

But I can find another writer.

Hey, just... Don't do that.

Just let me keep going, okay?

- I will get you something.
- You better.

Or someone else will.

Hiya. I got Dante Jordan

to agree to testify.

That's great. Uh...

I found Ronnie's ex-girlfriend.

She confirms his alibi.

How'd you get Dante to step forward?

Falcone stiffed him for his
last two court appearances,

and hell hath no fury like
a false witness scorned.

See ya. Hey.

- Hey.
- Vi.

You're leaving?

No goodbye?

I heard about that bullet.

Trying to get your head blown off, too?

Okay. You know what? I get it.

You're morally opposed to this case,

and I understand why.

It's horrible.
But I really can't take this attitude.

We need to win, all right?

So get on or get off or
whatever you need to do,

but this train is moving.

Take one.

Not for air. Yet.

I was one of a few black
kids at my high school.

And one day,

a few of us went to our lockers

and found a noose hanging inside.

And our principal told us
that while it was awful,

racism was just a part of life

that we needed to accept.

He said

the hate train

was never gonna come to a stop.

And we were just gonna
have to toughen up...

and ride it out like
everyone else in history.

Have you ever had to ride that train?

So, remember,

continue to do the Lord's
work and walk in his path.

Thank you for coming,
and see you next week.

You need to talk to your son.

Something happened to
him at school today.

What happened?

Audra and I will wait outside.

Come on, baby.

What happened at school?

- I got into a fight.
- Over what?

Kids was messing with
me about your case.

I told you to fight with your
words, not your fists.

You let that stuff roll off your back.

And you don't have to
get yourself in trouble

defending me.

I was not defending you.

I was defending myself.

You're a hypocrite, Dad.

Always preaching pro-black this

and Black Lives Matter that,

but, man, you ain't really down.

You told me to never compromise.

And look at you.

Michael.

One day you'll understand
why I'm doing this.

I'll never understand this.

It's for the greater good, son.

Look at me.

If you don't hear nothing else,

hear that.

All right, let's go home now.

I, uh, got suspended.

All right.
I'll talk to Principal Denton.

I'll take care of it.

Don't trip.

Mom knows.

She'll take it from here.

I'm not gonna become
one of those people

who talks to their dog, so...

You shut up.

Stay.

Hey.

Hey.

Yeah. Uh...

Hi.

What a good boy, Atticus.

Uh...

listen, I think it's
pretty obvious that we...

haven't been entirely
honest with each other.

I'm sorry, th-there's just...
there's been...

No, no, no, don't... don't apologize.

I should have told you
this a long time ago.

The truth is...

I liked you since before
Becky and I broke up.

I think you're inspiring...

and smart

and good.

And I love your smile and
your eyes and your hair.

And I get it, it's not easy
to be vulnerable for anybody.

It's got to be even harder for you

after everything that
you've gone through, but...

but I want to try to do this, for real.

If you want to... if you want to try.

Do you want to?

Yeah.

I think I do.

Hey, pretty girl.

Back so soon?

We have a case that's causing

some friction with Violet...
I need someone to talk to.

What about that guy you
were telling me about?

How come I don't see you for
months, and then the moment

I lay eyes on you it
all comes flooding back?

It's the same for me.

So, I mean, tell me about this guy.

- You still talking?
- Yeah.

Yeah, we're talking.

He's around.

Where's your girl?

She's around.

I want you to know
that, whoever I'm with,

that a part of you is always with me.

I love you.

All right, so, we should tell you

how this is gonna go
once we get inside.

All right, listen, brother,
just tell the truth.

You still good to go, man?

Hell, yeah.

I'm tired of his corrupt ass, man.

Let's do this.

- Dante Jordan, you're under arrest.
- For what?

What the h...

- what the hell's going on, man?
- Hey! Excuse me.

I'm his lawyer. What's the charge?

Here's the arrest warrant.

Hey, what's going on, man?

You said I was good.

We can't proceed, Your Honor.

Our witness, Dante
Jordan, was just arrested.

- On the courthouse steps.
- That's unfortunate.

It's criminal.
The prosecution knew that

Mr. Jordan was about to testify

to the threats and the corruption

that Detective Falcone
used in this case.

- They're protecting Falcone.
- Mr. Duncan,

- what's going on here?
- Sorry, Your Honor,

I'm just getting caught up.

I was recently given a
copy of an arrest warrant

for Dante Jordan.

Armed robbery,
felony assault of a peace officer.

From what I gather,
the police have been looking

- for him for some time.
- And they just

happen to make an arrest right
before he was about to testify?

- Guess they knew where to find him.
- Your Honor,

it's an obvious attempt
to keep our witness

from exposing the corruption
of Detective Falcone.

The prosecution's playing
dirty to protect a dirty cop.

Do you have any evidence to
substantiate these allegations?

I did. He just got arrested.

We need a continuance, Your Honor.

Fine. Get your ducks in a row.

We do this again in two days.

Court's adjourned.

- What the hell just happened?
- A slight delay.

You just play me, boy?

Oh, that's right, I see you, brother.

- Let's go.
- What's up?

- I see you, brother.
- Come on. Move.

What the hell was that?

Looks like our leopard
still has his spots.

It was that look.

You know what I'm talking about.

So I was right... he was conning us.

- Can we drop this case?
- No. We can't give up.

We have one shot at Falcone.
This is it.

Even though he is clearly a racist.

Well, we've got another huge problem.

Our star witness is
in the county lockup

for the foreseeable future,

which means he's
definitely not testifying.

Then we need to find a different angle.

All right, 30-year career, Falcone

leaned on dozens of people.
He must have had help.

You mean other cops.

Even if he had help, there is no way

his brothers in blue
are gonna flip on him.

Unless we can force them to.

Let's see who we can leverage.

Work your contacts.
Someone on the inside

must have hated Falcone

- just as mu...
- Much as I hate our client?

Can I help you? Sir.

Toby Kissell?

What are you doing here?

Keep your drug-addicted
brother away from me.

Look, I don't know what
Levi said to you...

He accused me of killing Rosemary,

which is ridiculous...
we all know who really killed her.

Do we?

Because the way I remember it,
you blatantly lied on the stand.

That's perjury, and it makes

- you look pretty guilty.
- No.

I testified to what I heard.

You lied, and we both know it.

If I see him again,
I'm calling the cops.

He's messed up.
I don't want him anywhere near me.

Because he reminds you
of how guilty you are?

Or because you stole ten years from us?

No, don't look away.

You look me in the eye, and you tell me

that you think Levi killed her.

Exactly.

What else are you hiding, Toby?

Don't you come in here like
you're the innocent victim,

because you're not.

You ruined him.

You're a coward and you're pathetic,

and everything that happened to him

is your fault.

Get out of my office.

I think you're putting a spell
on me with all this good food.

Mmm.

Does it make you want
to sleep with me more?

Mm. Makes me crush on you more.

Yeah?

- Yeah.
- Finally.

Does this mean that we can...

go out in public and have
dinner in a restaurant?

Okay, but nothing fancy.

I promise take you to
the most mediocre place

- I can find.
- Yeah?

- Yeah.
- Yeah?

Hey, if we go public,

I need you to stop trying to
free the white supremacists.

He's a scumbag. Period.

- Okay.
- Yeah.

I guess Falcone did a good thing
putting him away, then, yeah?

Falcone's a piece of crap.
He's one of the bad ones.

You ever work with him?

No, but, uh, his partner...

"Dirty David" Moss...

that guy used to hit on me nonstop.
He's a pig.

You want me to take him out for you?

- You know I'm a ninja.
- Yeah?

Part-time. Part-time. You know.
I have the outfit.

Yeah, well, that guy took himself out.

Oh, this is good. Really good, babe.

What do you mean he took himself out?

He went out on some
bogus disability charge

a couple years ago...

rumor is he still collects

three-quarters of his salary,

- tax-free.
- What a pig.

Exactly. Cheers.

- Cheers.
- Babe, this looks good.

So good.

I got a name.

David Moss.

Supposedly dislocated
his shoulder in the line,

but I have it on good
authority he's a liar.

So a cop who's defrauding the city

by taking disability but
isn't actually injured...

that's our big breakthrough?

Why not?
That's all the leverage we need,

if we can prove it.

Hey. I got to go somewhere.

You want to work out some aggression?

I think I do. Let me grab my coat.

All right...

when are you two gonna make up?

It's getting seriously
weird around here.

Whenever she wants.
This is her thing, not mine.

I know, it's awful,
but there's a bigger picture here.

If we win, we can help a
lot of innocent people.

Let's stay focused on that.

Your weight.

What did you just say to me?

Your weight.

You got to put your
weight back a little.

Do you want to show me how to do it?

Wow! Where have you been all my life?

Do it again.

David Moss?

Hi. I'm Madeline Scott.

I know who you are.

You're receiving
$2,700 a month in disability.

- Tax-free.
- Have been for the last five years.

- Exercise is part of my rehab.
- Hmm.

What the hell do you want?

You want to serve your
time with dozens of men

Falcone put behind bars unfairly?

I'm sure they'd love to see you.

I don't know what you're talking about.

I'm not your guy.

Okay.

That is the number to the
chair of the Disability Review.

I'll just give him a call.

Up to you, David.

Food's better here, though.

Trust me, I know.

Hello. You've reached the chair

of the Disability Review.

Hang up right now.

You want me to flip on Falcone?

He was my partner for
11 and a half years.

If he goes down,
you're gonna take me down with him.

You don't have a choice.

Okay. But I don't do
anything without immunity.

All right, this is very tricky.

We can apply. We probably won't get it.

Bellows is the only sure
way to get him immunity.

Moss is perfect,
and we've got him nailed.

There's got to be another
way to get him to testify.

You're welcome.

You want to know
what happened to those kids

who hung the noose in our lockers?

Not a damn thing.

They got off with an insincere apology.

The Ronnie Petersens of this world...

they have a contagious disease.

It's called hatred.

This is my cross to bear.

So if you don't like my attitude,

be a real friend and try to understand

why I even have one in the first place.

I thought about putting that

up on the podcast,

but then I realized it was
just intended for one person.

I'm so sorry, Vi.

My tunnel vision in this case
is not an excuse to be a jerk,

especially to you.

I wasn't thinking
about your experience.

Probably because I don't
really know enough about it.

Well, it doesn't exactly come up

in everyday conversation, does it?

I want you to know you can tell
me anything any time you want.

I'll hear you.

For today, is there any
chance I could get, like,

a one-time idiot friend pass?

There is,

- but it expires.
- That's fair.

Hmm.

- I love you.
- I love you.

So, you're gonna want to hug me again,

because I had a hunch,
and I went through

Falcone's IAD complaints.

Look at that.

That's an ugly way to go.

It's an ugly case.

They made three major drug busts

- today alone.
- Mm.

It's a perfect way to change the story.
It's fantastic.

Get it on the cover of the Trib.

Then it's fantastic.

Ah.

Ms. Scott.

What a surprise.

Please, come in.

My parents always

taught me that nothing in life is free.

That everything we
want comes at a price

if we're willing to pay.

That payment is what I call sacrifice.

Let me get this straight.

You want me to request immunity

so that a white supremacist
can be set free?

There's something in it for you, too.

12 years ago, your opponent,

Esteban-Miller, represented Falcone

on a series of corruption
charges and won.

He suborned perjury. It's a scandal.

You grant Moss immunity, indict Falcone

and score some big political points

using it against your opponent.

I thought this was your
candidate of choice.

Please believe that if I'm here
it's because I'm out of options.

And anyway, Esteban-Miller kept Falcone

on the streets for years,
which means he's, in a way,

responsible for dozens
of wrongful convictions.

It's intriguing.

I give you Falcone,

you give me the headline
and the ammunition

against Esteban-Miller.

But Moss has to testify
on a different case.

I cannot be responsible

for getting a white
supremacist out of jail.

Certainly not in an election year.

So, he'll give us what we want.

We just have to get Moss to
testify in a different case.

Bellows doesn't want to
see Petersen go free.

This is perfect. We get to nail Falcone

and we don't have to
free a Nazi to do it.

That's fine by me.

No.

- I won't do it.
- Seriously?

Whether Petersen is a racist or
not, we all know

he didn't commit this crime.

He deserves our defense
on that principle alone.

I dedicated my life to
freeing the innocent.

I'm not going to stop
now for a good deal

or because I don't like the client.

We're either wrongful
conviction attorneys

or we're just like Falcone...

making deals to get what we want.

I offered to make the deal,

but I will not release
a white supremacist,

and Madeline's partner won't budge.

So... make the deal.

It's a direct hit on Esteban-Miller,

and the details about
Ronnie Petersen will be

buried in a tidal wave
of Falcone's other cases.

I'm not putting a Nazi
back on the streets.

I still have a conscience.

Who cares? He served 15 years.

I care. I'm sick of making
compromises for this campaign.

I got a job to do.
I'd like to keep doing it.

I had a miscarriage.

What are you talking about?

23 years ago.

I never told you because...

I didn't know if I wanted to keep it.

I just wasn't sure...

and then the decision was made for me.

It happened right after
Isabel's mother was murdered.

You were so upset
over that case that...

I didn't want to pile on,

so I kept the whole thing a secret.

The way the press destroyed
you during that time...

I'd cry at night, I was so angry.

And I'm sure that's
why I lost the baby.

Is that why you hate Isabel so much...

because you blamed her?

Maybe.

Or maybe it was the fact
she became your baby.

It just...

it bothered me.

And I know it's not fair to
her, but nah.

I don't care.

I'm sorry you had to go through that.

You should have told me.

Life is tough,

but we fight on.

Now make the deal and shove it
down Esteban-Miller's throat.

I don't care how we win,
but we're gonna win.

You're gonna be A.G.

and then you're gonna be governor.

Get it done.

Earlier today,

after a thorough and
swift investigation,

my office indicted
Detective Rich Falcone

on charges of corruption
and police misconduct.

I immediately took action

- and placed him under arrest
- Falcone, hold up.

and have reopened and
will personally review

every case that may
have been impacted by

Detective Falcone's misdeeds.

Let me assure the public

that while every one
of these injustices

will be made right,

the truly guilty will not go free.

This is the type of leadership

I will bring to the
attorney general's office.

Unlike Evan Esteban-Miller,

who previously represented

Detective Falcone on
corruption charges.

So the voters have to ask themselves

who do they want for the
next attorney general...

someone who's in league with dirty cops

or someone who puts them behind bars?

Thank you.

This is usually our favorite part.

This one just feels kind of...

Crappy? Depressing?

You kind of regretting it, too?

A little bit.

We had to do it.

- Hey!
- Son.

- How you doing?
- Okay.

So, what's it gonna be, Ronnie?

You're all right with me, Easy.

Take care.

Why'd you do that?

For the greater good.

I just pray that small gesture did more

than those gates did when
they opened up for him.

We all sacrificed

a piece of ourselves

to help right the wrongs of
a wicked and corrupt cop,

and we did it because it
was the right thing to do

for those men and women
who were powerless

and who already paid
the ultimate price.

This case tested us all.

It made some of us stronger,

and some of us more conflicted,

but sometimes,
you have to make sacrifices

to serve the greater good.

You played me, manipulated
me so I'd tell you about Moss

and used that to take down Falcone.

Baby... Baby,
you know that Falcone was dirty.

Don't!

Did you even think about how
this would blow back on me?

Yeah, I didn't think so.

- Nikki, wait.
- No. Damn it, Bodie.

I liked you.

Why'd you have to ruin this?

If we can sit and listen

to our enemies' points of view,

we can maybe learn something

about each other

and about ourselves.

So please, guys,

let's keep this conversation going.

No matter how hard it is to do.

- How was work?
- Mmm. Who cares?

Hey, it's Madeline. Leave a message.

Hey, sis. It's Levi.

Look, I finally talked to Toby Kissell.

The guy's totally messed up, and

he-he's definitely hiding something.

He's got to be the one
that killed Rosemary.
