More details are merging this
afternoon

about the explosive device found

outside the William J. Lowe
Federal Building in downtown.

The North Texas Bomb Squad
responded to the scene

earlier today and successfully
diffused

what they are calling an
improvised explosive device.

Now, within the past hour,
a spokesperson for the FBI

has informed us that a
suspect is in custody

in connection with this case.

Guys we need to move them
back.

His name is Titus
Hernandez.

A 22-year-old man who most
recently

worked as a courier in the area.

Hey, what's up Sarge?

Hey, and it is not Sarge.

Those days are over.

Right, right, right.

Look, I just thought
I'd drop by during lunch

to pick it up.

So, you got it working?

Oh yeah, it's like new.

Yeah, just soldered a couple
of wires and then, boom,

came back to life.

And those speakers,
those speakers are great.

Really?

Man, I ain't heard it
sound outta this thing

since I was a kid, man.

Me and my dad used to hoop every
day

with this thing thumping.

That's why I never wanted to
throw it out.

Yeah, I really didn't have
that.

But you know, I got to fix a lot
of stuff.

You wanna hear it?

- Yeah, let's do it.
- All right.

You are gonna love this.

No, no, no, no.

No, no, no, it was just
working this morning.

It was working great.

Oh, come on.

I'm sorry, I...

My boy Anthony around, man?

Oh no, no, I forgot to tell
you he got that scholarship.

- For real?
- Yeah.

We just took him to
school a couple weeks ago.

You know, he's doing great.

That's awesome man.

Tell him I said congrats.

I will.

Well look man, I'mma let you
get back

to looking at that.

Just shoot me a text when it's
ready.

I will, and I will fix it, all
right?

- All right
- All right.

All, right take care man.

Hey, and you stay safe.

Always, see you boss.

Details on how agents were
able to quickly identify

the suspect and tie him to the
case have not been revealed.

But we should learn more once
the affidavit is unsealed.

It's not working?

I don't get it, I
could do this in my sleep

when I was younger.

Don't beat yourself up.

It happens to a lot of men your
age.

That's not funny.

Well, don't let it ruin your
day.

I don't want you stomping
around mad over a radio.

Who's mad?

I'm not mad, nobody is mad.

I'm the furthest thing
from being mad right now.

Is this for a paying
customer or another favor?

Because...

There will be plenty of paying
customers

once the website's done.

That's how the business grows
you, you,

you complete a website, and
then you get lots of customers,

and there are a lot of checks.

Uh-huh, well, the only
checks I've seen lately

are from Aunt Martha's Trust for
your mom.

They keep sending them
to our house by mistake.

Yeah, I know, I need to go see
her.

I'll bring 'em with me.

How much are they?

I don't open them.

Why not?

I'm her son, I mean, we're gonna
be managing her stuff soon.

I mean, it's no trouble
just taking a little peek.

You can have that on your
conscience if you want,

but I won't do it.

And maybe take a break from the
radio

to work on something else.

Like your website.

I have a meeting this
afternoon

and I gotta fix a record player,

but I'll work on the website.

It is never a good sign
when the FBI is calling you.

Yeah, well we have a knack
for sniffing out troublemakers.

Civilian life's still treating
you well?

Yeah, it's all good, I um...

Business is rocking.

Just a few startup hiccups, how
about you?

Really busy.

I'm not really sure if that's
a good thing or a bad thing,

considering what I do.

We still have some openings you
know,

if you ever change your mind.

Did you hear about that federal
building backpack bomber?

Yeah, yeah, I saw the stuff on
the news.

Yeah, well they got me
working the suspect's profile,

and guess where he grew up?

Good ol' East Bank.

Just reaching out to see
if you've ever had a run-in

with him or anything?

Or if you could tell me
anything,

'cause he doesn't have a record.

He's clean as a whistle.

Remind me of his name.

Titus Hernandez.

Moved here about four years ago.

Dropped outta community
college after a semester.

And he's been bouncing
between jobs ever since.

I went to high school
with an Isaac Hernandez.

He's uh, Hispanic kid, new in
town.

Just uh, we were rough on him.

I mean, it could be his kid, a
relative.

What do you got on him?

It's not public yet, but it's
solid.

Direct tie from the bomb to the
suspect.

I mean, it was almost like
he wanted to get caught.

Hmm, interesting.

Tell you what, I'll
let you know what I find

on the relatives, and if
you happen to run into

your old classmate or think of
anything,

hit me up, okay?

Yeah, I'll do it.

All right, take care man.

Oof.

I don't know, Travis.

That is a pretty tight grouping.

Were your eyes open?

Didn't know we were shooting
blind today.

Just admit that you're
rusty and about to lose.

Oh, I'm rusty?

I bet you don't even get to
carry a gun at that new job.

Trauma counselors don't need
guns.

Does an electronic repairman
carry a gun?

Vintage electronic restoration
specialist, thank you.

Okay.

And I mean, you feel like
that's where God sent you

after you resigned?

He gave me a passion for it.

Fix things, you know,
I'm pretty good at it.

It's gotta be from Him, right?

I don't know.

I mean, you're a people person.

It's where you're best.

Looking people in the eye and
getting down to the truth.

I mean, like for me, what I
do, I am investing in people

who are going through
probably the worst situation

of their entire lives.

And it's rewarding and
fulfilling,

and I know that it's
what I was meant to do

after everything I've been
through, so...

That's a great place to be.

I'm happy for you.

Yeah.

Oh yeah, I am a little rusty.

That's ridiculous.

That's insane.

Gary.

I could use some help.

Gary.

Gary?

Hey, c-c-come take a look.

Did you hear me calling for
you?

You scared me.

I'm sorry, I'm just focused.

Come here.

Pretty good, huh?

I don't know if good is the
right...

I wouldn't call it great.

But you know, I was talking to
Kris today

and she was telling me
about how her new job

is like a calling, it just
inspired me.

You know, if this is what God's
giving me,

then I need to treat it
like I'm working for Him.

So I hunker down, finish the
site.

You know, once it starts
hitting,

yeah, I could have 10 jobs by
Monday.

You know, maybe a hundred.

Who knows?

I'm just worried that you
aren't prepared to handle

a hundred orders just yet...

From our garage.

No, no, this is just a start.

I mean, once I start making
money, you know, I'll,

I'll hire employees.

I'll get a shop, you
could be my accountant.

Wear a tight little skirt.

Hey, let's just take
this one step at a time.

A couple of orders would be nice

before starting a headquarters.

Is the site live?

Oh yeah, it's live.

But they monitor bandwidth
and that costs money, so...

I don't want it to go viral at
first.

Not til' I can afford it, so
don't pray for that just yet.

I'm proud of you for
finishing your website.

I'm gonna go put away the
groceries.

Couldn't have done it without
you.

All this stuff happening to
Titus,

and ol' GT from high school
shows up.

Well, you're here for a purpose.

I can't imagine what you and
your wife

are going through right now.

Yeah, well, thought he
was doing good, you know.

Got a job in the city.

Got an apartment, got a
roommate.

Next thing you know, the
FBI's banging down our door

saying he tried to set up a
bomb.

Won't answer any of our
questions.

They start going through our
stuff.

And I'm telling you that boy,
GT,

all he knows is video games.

He don't know how to build no
bomb.

Now we're trying to get
a private investigator,

a lawyer, or something.

We can't afford any of that
stuff.

Like, I hear you, you're a cop, right?

Isn't there something that you
can do?

I resigned from the force.

I started a small business, you
know,

entrepreneur type thing.

Oh, for reals.

So uh, why are you here then?

I wanted to check on you.

Back in the day, I'm not real
proud of some of the things

we said and did to you,

and I just wanted to say that,
you know...

No, no, no that, that's okay.

We were kids, a long time ago.

All is forgiven and forgotten.

Look, if we can do anything to
help you,

you and your wife,

Do you know anybody?

Anybody that I can call to
help clear my boy's name,

'cause I'm telling you,
man, I-I- I don't know

what they're going off of.

He didn't do it.

He, he, he's being framed,
or wrongfully accused

or whatever it is you wanna call
it.

Wait a minute, um...

They said it was assembled in a
backpack.

Did your boy have a backpack?

Well, what do you mean a
backpack?

Wh-where'd you hear that?

The FBI, that's what they
said.

No, no, no, no, no.

Hold on just a minute.

I-I've been listening
and watching everything

they've been saying about it.

They never said anything about a
backpack.

No, I'm sure I heard it.

Titus, he's had that the,
the same old grungy backpack

he's had for years, you
know, it's got stickers

and patches all over from
all those video games

that he plays.

Like it looks a lot like
those soldier patches.

Okay.

He left it on the bus
a couple of weeks ago.

Wallet, cash, keys,
all of that were in it.

Called us asking how we'd
get a driver's license

and, and, and bum some
cash and all of that.

Did he file a police report?

For a lost backpack?

No, no, no, no.

He, he, he didn't think
anything was stolen or anything.

Hey, Long, send me the
photo of the backpack

from the bomb.

Wha-what do you mean?

I mean, we haven't publicly
released the manner in, in,

in which the guy...

Don't, don't gimme that.

Last time we talked you said
backpack.

So just send it to me.

I can't do that.

What do you mean you can't?

Look, just slip the phone
in your back pocket?

It accidentally butt dials me
the photo.

Now you didn't do anything
wrong,

and I won't even look at it for
very long.

That's not how texting works,
Gary.

You ask me to help you, all
right.

Just send it.

You know, it's never
a good sign when a man

hides his screen, just when
his wife enters the room.

I was just looking at
the latest on the federal

building bomb stuff.

Oh, so you're cheating
on your repair work?

I'm not cheating.

I-I'm taking a brain break.

I can't seem to fix this record
player

or the radio apparently.

Can we have a heart to heart?

Sure.

I'm not feeling very
good about Gary's Repairs.

I know you love tinkering
with these things,

but our finances can't handle
the dip

we've been going through much
longer.

And I'm not sure that these
electronics are your strength.

Becky, I've always been
good at fixing stuff.

Yeah, I'm a little rusty.

But once I get my soldering
hand back and, you know,

a supply chain and some of these
shops...

You're not any good at fixing
this junk.

I'm sorry, somebody had to tell
you.

What, what, what am
I supposed to do, huh?

This is what God's given me.

I was a cop and before that
I tinkered with electronics.

I'm terrible at this, this
modern high tech stuff.

I didn't go to college.

So what am I supposed to do
Beck?

Just go back to being
detective somewhere else.

I can't.

God closed that door in my
heart, and it's not my place

to open it.

If the door is closed,
then what was on that screen?

Did God close the door or did
you?

I can't go back, I can't.

Maybe it's not about going
back,

but going forward instead.

What does that even mean?

You're a smart guy.

You'll figure this out.

It's what you do.

You solve things.

Hey, what's up?

So should I come
downtown,

teach your boys how to conduct
a proper investigation?

And what do you mean by that?

Well, you should be more
observant.

Look around.

You got the wrong guy.

I'm listening.

Backpack was lost, possibly
stolen

three weeks before the incident
happened.

And I know you're gonna say it's
hearsay,

but I got canceled debit cards,

reissued driver's license, bus
receipts

that prove that he lost it.

So if it were me, and I was
looking for the real bomb maker,

I'd be looking at the bus
camera footage on route nine

between the 20th and the 22nd.

That's very good, Mr. Travis,

or should I call you
Detective Travis again?

Or better yet, Gary Travis, PI.

It's just Travis, you want
this?

We already figured it out.

You did?

We picked up the wrong guy.

The stolen backpack was used
to throw us off, apparently.

Now the bureau has a
whole mess to clean up,

when they let him out.

We got our own Richard
Jewell dilemma here.

Oh, you mean the guy's life
you wrecked,

because he was wrongfully
accused.

- Unfortunately.
- Yeah.

But that's pretty impressive
work there

for a former law enforcement
officer.

I mean, it took a team of
people across multiple floors up

there to figure out what
one old school cop did

in about a day.

Our offer still stands.

We could always put in
a good word for you.

Start the interview
process, background check.

I appreciate it you guys,

but I am all in on my new
business.

Well, can't say I blame him
for wanting to stay out of it.

But you're gifted Gary, I
mean, you're really good

at what you do.

And we didn't have the dates

or the bus scheduled yet, so
thank you.

Yep.

Do you wanna grab coffee
while you're in town?

Yeah, I can do that.

But he's paying.

Of course I am.

You know, you could have
just emailed those things

to us instead of driving
all the way out here.

I'm like you say buddy, I'm
old school.

Technology, you know.

Do you have a computer at home?

Yes, I have a computer.

A dial up?

That's what it's all
about, gentlemen, repentance.

It's a change in your mind

that causes a change in your
actions.

You're going the wrong way
and by the grace of God,

you start going the right way.

But simply just thinking
about it in your mind,

or feeling it in your
heart, it's not enough.

If the repentance is
real, there'll be action

and serves as evidence.

A change that makes things more
right.

And on the topic of change, I
shared this with our pastor,

but this will be the last
week of me leading the group.

Some of you know, God has led
me into a new line of work

and for a season I'll need to
focus on my energies on that.

But, you know, if you
have any old electronics

that need some new life breathe
into 'em.

I'm your guy.

Ah, you're dismissed.

Les, good to see you.

Thank you.

Take care.

Appreciate everything
you've done with the group.

Absolutely.

You wanna get some lunch
tomorrow?

Ah, I'd love to.

I'm having lunch with
my mom and my daughter,

but we'll do it soon.

All right buddy, take care.

Hey, if you find that
CB radio, bring it to me.

What was all that about in
there?

Yeah, you couldn't give us a
warning?

Trust me, it was a hard
decision, but I had to do it.

And this is what God wants.

Yeah, I think so.

I mean, can we really know for
sure.

I think, we can be very sure.

You saw how many guys we had
tonight.

I mean, that's on your watch.

We started with five guys at
your house

and now look how it's grown.

Man, you know, we're behind
you.

If this new business is
God's will for your life,

but the brother to brother,

I just think He's got bigger
plans than that for you.

I hear you.

But I mean, I've gotta make a
living,

gotta provide for my family.

Hey, you were the one
challenging us

with the the parables of the
talents.

Like what, three weeks ago?

Taking what we've been given
and and using it for Him.

Ask any guy in this
group and they'll agree.

You have a gift.

And what's that?

You're good with people,
you understand them.

You know how to figure out
what's happening in their lives.

Look I, I just don't know.

That's hard for me to see.

Look how you've helped
both of our families, huh?

There's your evidence detective

Hey, we love you, man.

We've gotta check you, right?
- Yeah.

Just like you do for us, right?

Yeah.

And besides you see
a man with the talent

of a race car driver,

and he's going to use that
talent to push shopping carts.

You gotta ask yourself,
is this God's plan?

It's not an easy thing for us
to say,

but would we be real friends if
we didn't?

Look, I hear you both.

I'll keep my eyes open in
case I'm missing something,

and I will pray about it.

And if you hear something,
you'll take action?

You were listening,

- Huh?
- For once.

Look, anything changes,

you let us know about it, all
right?

Right.

All right, love you guys.

And on Tuesdays we play
dominoes,

but nobody believes me
when I tell them I learned

to play the game when
I was in the big house.

Mm.

They all say you're just
too sweet of a little old lady

to have ever been there.
- Uh-huh.

I let 'em say whatever they
want to

and then I beat 'em over and
over.

Hmm, Mom, you're not
putting money on those games,

are you?
- Of course not.

I wouldn't even think of it.
- Oh, Gary.

Speaking of money, here's
checks from the trust,

come to my house, not yours.

I can put these with
the rest of her mail.

She likes to read them,
sometimes over and over.

Uh, no, those are
supposed to go to your house

for your company.

No, mom, these are
from Aunt Martha's Trust.

They're yours.

I know exactly what they are.

I'm the one that called
them and told them to send

a portion of that money to your
house.

Well, it's to get you started
with your electrics company,

and that's where they're going.

No, no, they're not.

No, not another word, do you
hear me?

Now, if you'll excuse me,

I gotta visit the little girl's
room.

Oh, do you want me to come
help you?

Help...

Honey, the day I can't
use the bathroom by myself

is the day y'all could put me in
a box.

- How much are those checks?
- I don't know.

I haven't opened them.

I'll just put 'em in a folder

until she comes asking for them
again.

How's she doing?

It comes and goes.

This morning she was asking

if we were having lunch with
Roger.

Roger this, Roger that.

Hmm, Roger.

Is he one of the guys at the
center?

Not that I know of.

Once a cop always a cop.

Yeah, old habits are hard to
break,

when your brain's been
on duty for 18 years,

Are you enjoying the new work?

I'm trying to enjoy it.

My friend Logan, he just
started a new IT job this week.

Your friend Logan, like a
dating friend,

or a just a guy friend.

He's special, yeah.

Special.

So, I assume he thinks you're
special too.

You could say that.

Hey, mom.

Over here, Doris.

All right, that's good.

So mom, who is Roger?

Roger.

Roger's the boy I was
dating before Gary was born.

I thought he was going to be
here today.

What?

Hey mom.

Roger, Roger who, Mom?

What's his last name?

You never mentioned him before.

Roger.

I just said it, his name is
Roger.

Yeah, what's his last name?

You never...

You, you told me you
didn't know who my dad was.

And you were dating this
guy before I was born.

That is so silly.

Do you really think
that Roger is your dad?

Yeah, he could have been Gary's
dad,

but he certainly isn't yours.

I am Gary, Mom.

Look at me, who's Roger?

Roger was supposed
to meet us here today.

- Dad.
- And I'm, I'm mad at him now.

Dad, not right now.

She's...

Maybe another time.

Did I tell y'all about Tuesday
dominoes?

We play every Tuesday,

but nobody believes it when I
tell them

that I learned to play
the game in the big house.

All right. God,

I need your help.

If this is what I'm supposed to
be doing,

please show me clearly,

because right now I don't know.

Yeah, baby.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

A case of being in the
wrong place at the wrong time

is what authorities are
blaming for the mixup.

They say a piece of evidence
pointed to Mr. Hernandez

as the culprit, but upon further
scrutiny,

the connection fell apart and
his alibi gained strength.

What was at first a nightmare

for this East Bank family

has turned into a time of
thankfulness.

In a statement, the family
thanked law enforcement officers

for working tirelessly to get
to the bottom of the case,

and to clear their son's name.

Thanks to an unexpected tip
from a former law enforcement

officer, we have a new suspect
in custody

and we are confident that
justice will be served

after the unfortunate
incident with Mr. Hernandez.

For Titus Hernandez and his
family.

This has been a day of
vindication.
