Original subtitles

-Do you speak Serbian? -What's that have to do

-with my husband's murder? -Maybe nothing. Maybe everything.

First, you got your "9-to-5"-er, and that's me.

Then you got Detective Sharon Pici.

Queen of The Box.

She's got the wife and the kid and the career.

I feel the deeper we go,

it's my opinion that your obsession with the Adina Ilić case

is proving prohibitive to your recovery.

I stood on the chair and looked at the pipe. That's all I did.

I can't stop looking at the pipe.

Detective Sharon Pici interviewing Joey Cox on the suspicion of murder.

Trust me, you don't wanna record this part.

You wanna cut me a deal. I keep all this tea to my lonesome.

-And in exchange? -You blow me.

-Like the bitch you are. -You gotta stop doing that.

-Stop what? -Calling women bitches!

Have mercy on me.

I need your gun first.

Yeah, all right. This isn't about my suspension, is it?

This is about...

Snow's evaluation.

-Don't worry about that. -You know that I'm fit for duty.

-Is that right? -Yeah.

Okay.

Then explain to me how the hell Joey Cox

ended up with his throat slit in my bathroom.

Because I need your statement before it goes to IA.

Well, it was self-defense.

What? Forensics will back it up.

Will you tell me about my evaluation? What'd she say?

-Jed, what did she say? I wanna know. -I'm sorry, Pici.

I need your badge too.

Your badge.

Hey. Did you move this evidence bin outta storage?

Uh, no. Jed's got me shredding old files.

Okay.

Damn shame they're tearing down this place, right?

Those copper pipes are worth a fortune.

Sharon, are you all right?

Do you wanna maybe run your statement by me?

No.

I prefer my visitation with my son be restored.

We need to discuss that with the judge.

I just don't want you to make a statement to Jed.

Not without a lawyer.

Because this new IA guy, Saperstein, will be all over it.

Thanks for your concern, but I'm good.

You're good?

Are you sure? Because...

I'd feel much better if you took this seriously...

There's no tape. It's just a he-said/she-said and...

he's dead.

Just don't forget, I..

I'm here 'cause I love you.

Well then, don't tell me, show me.

You dropped this...

in the car on the way back from the hospital.

And, look, I...

I know how much this case means to you, but maybe...

Maybe it's time to let it go.

Lord Jesus, have mercy on me.

A sinner.

Why did you have to humiliate her like that?

After all she's done for you?

You couldn't wait until the end of the day to take her gun and badge?

You're pathetic.

Anderson, can you get over here?

-She really needs to make a call. -Uh-huh.

Anderson, let her make a call, and then bring her back to Jenny here.

Maybe I should call you Detective Block.

I was wondering, are you ready to...

grill her solo?

Yeah.

-Okay. -If you get a confession...

I just might have you replace Detective Pici as Lovell's partner.

Unless that's gonna be a problem.

-No, sir, I'm ready. -Oh, you are?

Those are mighty big shoes to fill.

Oh, I know, but...

-We actually wear the same size. -I don't think so.

Jed? Can I talk to you for a minute?

Yeah.

Why don't you get rid of that old thing? It's always busted.

This old thing witnessed my dad grill the Son of Sam.

Wow!

So...

You and your dad. Are you tight?

We were.

'Til I came out.

Now...

I just have this clock.

It's working.

How you holding up?

I'm okay.

Yeah. Thank you for your note.

So, Jed's finally... He's got you soloing, huh?

Yeah, but he knows I'm not ready.

I guess he just wants me out.

Well, he's the one that recruited you, right?

Yeah. Because he had a quota to fill.

Call me the token black girl.

Token black girl already soloing in The Box.

That's not bad.

He's maybe old school, but he's not stupid.

If you got time, maybe I can buy you lunch.

Thanks.

Gotta give Jed a statement first.

Shit! Oh, god!

I told them not to get the cheapest boxes.

I mean, we're gonna lose half the office in the move.

Hey, give me that tape.

Here we go...

Boom!

So... I told Jed that

either you're walking outta here with your gun and your badge,

or I'm walking out with you.

All these years and you never lost your shit.

I don't know what the fuck you're talking about. I just lost my wife.

You got a lot of heart, Tom.

What are we watching?

Adina's interview, right before she hung herself.

You should be focusing on your statement to Jed.

Why are you still obsessing over Adina?

Hm? Why are you doing this to yourself?

I...

I... heard her. Okay?

I can hear her.

All right.

Jed's gonna wanna have a simple fucking story

about how that yellow box cutter got into that bathroom.

And what if that simple story isn't that fucking simple?

-You guys need The Box? -No.

No, we're all good here.

'Cause she looks guilty, but she's got a tight alibi.

Is that the perp that stabbed the Chiefs linebacker, Will Shields?

Mm-hmm. She found the body, claims they're old friends, but...

I'm not so sure.

If I whiff this case, I'm so fucked with Jed.

Not if Shields' dog gets a whiff of her.

What? You don't watch Dog Nation ?

That's right! Shields was on that with his Rottweiler.

Mm-hmm.

So, if Shields and the lady are tight,

he smells her and walks. If not, he'll bite her ass off.

Good idea! Thanks!

Well, there goes your new partner.

Well, we're not there yet. Listen...

What did you mean when you said it's not that simple?

Joey came after me. It was self-defense.

Forensics just came back.

The initial finding says your prints are on there.

And they're under Joey's, so he couldn't have attacked you first.

So how did that yellow box cutter get into the bathroom

when Jenny left it outside?

What?

She's not making any sense.

Well, if she can't account for what happened in that bathroom...

-I've got an idea. -Right. Just...

Hey, Jerome! What up, brother?

It's Lovell. Yeah. Listen...

Did you log that yellow box cutter into forensics yet?

Please, please...

Sharon? Sharon!

No!

No!

It's just... I can't... I... There's no excuse, you know.

There's no fucking excuse.

If I report this, you will never see Jonah again.

Ever.

Is that what you want?

Because this bullshit is fucking insane!

Right? This is insane even for you, Sharon! Look at me!

I wasn't actually gonna hang myself.

I was waiting for you to see me.

Nisam ubila muža .

Goddammit, Sharon! Forget Adina!

That's what she's been whispering to me.

I heard it clearly when I was choking.

It means "I didn't kill my husband." She's innocent.

So, now you're talking to dead people?

Hm?

Yeah...

It still doesn't work.

Shit.

With what's in my notes, I can have her committed on a psych hold.

If she says anything that puts you in a bad light.

Her insanity is your alibi.

I don't know. It's Pici and she deserves a better exit.

Yeah...

I was gonna wipe it clean.

I was.

I was gonna do it. Just for no fucking questions asked.

I was just gonna do it, but then...

Never crossed that line. Never crossed that fucking line.

Never. But I would. And I would. And I'd do it for you.

I'd do it for you, because I love you.

But I realize now that it's wrong.

Because if I love you, if I really love you, then I need to help you.

All right. Well, then don't give up on me.

Huh? Please don't give up on me.

I'm not, but you need to explain the box cutter.

Don't let them frame me for murder.

Listen, they can't.

And they won't. Right?

Now, all you have to do is plead insanity.

Oh, and that's what Snow's going for, right?

No, Snow is handing you a fucking lifeline.

Take it!

And then I'm gonna lose..

I'll lose Jonah!

Maybe. Temporarily. But you'll get him back.

Sharon...

If you don't...

If you don't, they will drag you to jail...

for Joey's murder. That's what they'll do.

-All right? -Oh...

She knows she's not well.

Good. I mean, she'll agree to plead insanity.

Yeah. She'll lose custody of her kid, but...

-What choice does she have, right? -None.

Once you sign this, you agree to a series of tests,

assessments, to determine a diminished capacity,

which I'll be able to support with notes from our sessions.

Pici.

I know...

I know signing this is a...

a win-win.

Jonah's crazy mother gets...

gets help, IA doesn't tear this place to shreds and...

ya'll get to move into your new building, it's...

It's so easy. It's the easy way for all of us.

You get to keep all of your benefits.

Okay, thank you, that's good. Thanks.

-And I want to sign it. I do. -Well, good.

You see, what's most important for you right now is to avoid prison.

Yeah, I want to sign it, but I can't.

I can't sign it, because if I do...

then I'm just...

I'm just another cop who lost her mind and Adina...

is another...

innocent person that we let down.

Okay. Don't sign it.

Can you explain how your fingerprints ended up on that box cutter?

Because IA's all over this case.

I don't know, I can't explain it.

Something happened to me the day she hung herself and...

I've seen worse. Come on, we all have.

But this was different, even after a year of fucking...

A year of therapy. I've lost my wife. I've lost my son. I can't explain...

I can't explain how the box cutter got into the bathroom.

And I stabbed Joey

because he was trying to rape me,

and, um...

It was...

It was self-defense, and now I've...

Look at it, I'm sit... Here. I'm sitting here opposite you.

I'm on this side.

And I don't understand it, and I can't explain it

but I know one thing. I'm not crazy.

Okay? I'm not crazy.

And you keep telling me that the only way to deal with this

is to drop the case, to move on,

but I think that the only way is to get to the bottom of it.

Okay. Now listen to me.

We're here to discuss the Joey Cox incident, not the Adina case.

You gotta understand that case stays sealed.

No! I don't know how, but...

I think they're connected. Maybe it'll...

explain what happened to Joey.

Pici! If you don't take the insanity plea...

You give 'em no choice...

but to lock you up.

It's a really bad idea.

'Cause then I'll have to tell the truth.

The truth? Now what the hell is the truth?

The truth... The truth is that Adina Ilić came to us

to help us find her husband's killer, and instead...

we framed her for a murder that we all know she did not commit!

-She confessed! -No! She did not confess!

We caught her in a lie about speaking Serbian,

and then you fixed the transcripts to make it look like she confessed.

All right, okay! All right.

-That wasn't... It wasn't Jed. -What?

It was me. All right?

It was me, I did it, and I did it to save your ass.

Because Adina died, Pici, and that was on your watch.

Yes.

Yes. And I live with that.

What the hell is going on here?

So, what's now? The press?

No.

I want a week...

-to reopen the case. -Well, I promise you...

that'll never happen!

You give me a week, or...

All right. I'm gonna tell the new IA guy everything.

Everything.

Your careers are over.

-Listen. This is for your own... -No! You know what? I am...

I'm done.

I'm done listening to you. And I'm done taking these.

Anderson.

She's off her meds.

She stopped taking them. Abruptly. Do you know what that means?

She's gonna start swinging from mania to depression.

Her behavior's really gonna change. This is not good, Jed!

I know. I know.

Thank you. So... I'll take care of it.

And what the hell is that?

Just some old files for Pici's investigation.

Just get your partner to sign those damn papers.

Yes.

Yeah...

After everything that we've been through, you'd really do that to me?

Come on.

Like you haven't seen me bluff before.

Yeah...

Yeah.

Hey, what were those words that Adina told you?

Nisam ubila muža .

-Yeah? -You can look it up.

-N-I-S... -Right.

Nisam ubila muža .

N-I-S...

Mm. Here.

-I'll show you something. -Why are we looking at this?

No, we're not looking. We're listening.

Nisam ubila muža.

Nisam ubila muža.

These were Adina's last words.

Hanging yourself didn't teach you anything you didn't already know!

Adina's not speaking to you from the dead.

She's not sending you a message. You want me to play it again?

I'll play it again.

You heard her saying this as she was choking to death.

Hey, hey, hey!

-Help me! Help! -This is me, all right? Right? I...

And I want to help you. I want to help you. Will you let me help you?

-Yeah. -Yeah?

All right. So give me... Just give me one minute.

I'll get you out of this. All right? I promise.

You saved my ass on this one big time, Pici.

Lucy bit Charlene's ass. And we got us a confession.

You know I asked to train under you, right?

I mean, it was a no-brainer, but Jed insisted Lovell was the guy, so...

Yeah, he's... he's good police.

Not the way you are.

I mean, I should've pushed back on that, but, you know.

Too much push-back and you're a bitch.

Yeah, and too little and you're a pushover.

Yeah. I guess that's why I straddle the fence.

Well, they said we could have it all, right?

Whoever "they" are...

And I'm sure it's a bunch of white guys...

They lied.

Thank you.

So. Sign this medical consent form.

And if you spend any time locked up...

it will be in a hospital, not in jail.

And...

more importantly...

This nightmare you've been living, it just goes away.

And you stop thinking of Adina and really get better.

Yeah?

Right there.

Am I gonna lose my boy?

Maybe, but most importantly, you get better.

You get better.

And then you can come back to him.

Come on.

Hey... Hey.

Oh, my God.

Look at the time!

Have a look at this. It's stuck.

At 11:23:17.

That is the time that she hung herself.

And this morning, when I got in, the clock was stuck on that time.

And then the tape, exactly the same. 11:23:17. She's trying to talk to me.

Why? Why? Why? What is she trying to say?

-What does she want from you? -The truth.

The truth is we were all on that case.

What makes you so fucking special

she wants to chat with you from the grave?

I don't know. Maybe it's female intuition or maybe because I'm...

Maybe I'm the only one listening.

Just... I... I can't.

I can't go there with you.

-Thomas? -Hey, um...

Here's an idea...

Why don't you ask Adina about the box cutter?

Yeah?

-She's trying to connect with me. -I'll... see you tomorrow?

You seem to have had a productive day.

Yeah...

How 'bout you?

-Have you got us a court date? -Uh...

No. Not yet.

But I... I do have...

I do have Jonah waiting upstairs.

He wants to see you, Sharon, and I don't want to take that away.

Do you wanna... come?

-Is he in the car? -We are gonna meet with a judge.

And we're gonna get a schedule set out for...

Next week at this time, I swear you'll change your mind.

You will.

I love you.

Detective Sharon Pici?

-What are you doing? -Come on!

A psych hold? A psych hold? Are you kidding me?
