Morning. What can I get you?

Miss? Are you okay?

[♪ "Knife In The Heart" stops]

Good morning.

Can't believe I worked
on that stupid thing for two weeks.

Paul Cézanne hated
everything he ever painted,

and he's considered one of the greats.

Yeah, after he died.

Well, he worked
on The Large Bathers for seven years.

I don't have years.

I have art school reps coming
to my showcase soon

and I've literally got nothing.

You've got a couple days.

Plus, I really like
what you've done so far.

You're my mom. You're supposed to love it.

That is not true.
That textile thing you did was boring.

And a little derivative.

Okay, uh, why don't you go
and pack your bag for your dad's house?

- [Elliot] Okay.
- [Ava sighs]

Art isn't like your job, Mom.

I don't just get to look around
and, like, notice things.

It's a little more than that. But okay.

I have to come up
with something completely original,

something so undeniable it stands out.

Because if I don't, then I might not
get another shot at being noticed

or getting a scholarship.

Hey, listen. I lived with an artist
before you came along, remember?

Your dad used to fill up
so many garbage cans

with some really beautiful stuff
that he thought was trash.

You know, the points
where he was the most frustrated

and he was about to give up,

that's usually when he would come up
with something very special.

And you will too.

But you can't give up.

[Elliot] Okay, okay, I got it.

What if your final showcase piece is
the trash can full of your art?

Okey doke. Uh…

I've got an idea.

How about over the next couple of days,
you wanna talk to your sister,

you just run it by me first, okay?

Rosenberg would've called that
a finished piece.

- I know. Have a wonderful day.
- I love you.

I love you too.

- No, I'm saying…
- [laughs]

…if you wanna judge
my lavender oat milk latte,

- you should at least try it first.
- No, I don't think so.

- Lavender is for soap, not for sipping.
- [chuckling] Oh, my gosh.

You know,
you really didn't have to drive me.

- You were on the way.
- Mmm.

- Thank you.
- You're welcome.

[phone buzzes]

Yeah.

Yeah, I can head right over.
Just, uh, shoot me the address.

Oh. I'm already there.

[Morgan] Thank you. Okay. Excuse me.

Oh. What's going on here?
Bring your girlfriend to work day?

Lucia's one of the managers here.
She handles all their VIP guests.

- She want to comp me a room sometime?
- I'll ask her.

Really?

Everyone's on fire this morning.

Major Crimes got the call
because she's high profile.

- She is? Who is she?
- Mm-hmm.

[camera shutter clicks]

Vera Hensley
from The Big Fix with Vera and Frank.

- I've never seen it.
- Yeah, it's a husband and wife team.

They repair houses, do renovations,
things like that.

Well, I've got three kids.

I don't really have time
to build my own deck.

She's not exactly dressed for a pool day.
What's she doing out here?

I talked to a few hotel guests
who said she was already laying here

- when they came up this morning.
- So, you think she's been here all night?

Maybe she stumbled out here drunk,
fell in the pool and hit her head.

No.

Look at her hair, it's styled.

Ah!

[Morgan]I mean, it's frizzy.

I agree it got wet, but you ever seen
a woman come out of the water?

It'd be all plastered
to the side of her face,

not round and bouncy.

- It didn't rain last night.
- So how'd she get wet?

Sprinklers.

Yeah, they probably run at night
when the guests aren't around.

Which means there was no one here
to witness her attack.

That's assuming that it happened here.

Well, if she was killed somewhere else,
we'd better find out where

before Vera's killer has time
to clean it up.

- Vera Hensley?
- Yes, anything you can tell us.

Her room number, when she checked in.

Oh, she's not staying here,

but her husband, Frank Hensley,
is a DNA guest.

Do not announce. Very high profile.

Only essential staff have access.

He's been staying in the penthouse,
checked in a few days ago.

Okay, give us
one of those master key cards.

We're gonna go snoop around his room.

We'll knock. Can you access cameras?

Uh, we only have cameras by the pool,
the elevator, and the lobby, but I… Huh.

That's weird.

These cameras were, uh, turned off
last night.

Off or erased?

I wouldn't know. I'm guest relations.

I'll put our IT team on it.

Let's go talk to your VIP.

Vera and I were never apart.

We lived together. We worked together.

Our show is our life.

[Karadec] Is it true you guys met
at a hardware store?

You watch the show?

My girlfriend and I are moving
into a place that needs a bit of work

and, uh, The Big Fix taught me a lot.

Our first place together was
a two-bedroom house off Van Ness.

Crooked floors, no storage, no light.

Every project started as a problem
that Vera and I couldn't afford to ignore.

Can I ask what time
the two of you went to bed last night?

[stammers] Vera wasn't staying here.

So this isn't her bra?

I invited some friends over last night.
[sighs]

I guess it got kind of wild.

Mr. Hensley, if Vera wasn't here
with you last night,

why was she at the hotel?

I wish I knew.

Okay, so where's the lamp?

And the brass candle holders,
and the stone bookend?

I don't know.

So, his wife dies in the same hotel
he's staying in and he never saw her?

Please.

Sounds like Vera found out
that Frank was here partying,

confronted him and things got out of hand.

- Okay, so why aren't we bringing him in?
- Cause we need evidence.

Right now, we can't even prove
that Vera came up to this floor.

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

Uh, that'll do it.

Yeah, they're taking me in right now.

- Where'd you park?
- On the street like a sane person.

You think I'm paying hotel prices?

- We reimburse.
- You do?

Yeah, you save the receipt,
fill out an expense report--

Oh, God. No, forget it. You lost me. Bye.

- [Lucia] I said it's over. It's done.
- It's not too late.

We can be together. No cities.

Just seasons. And frosty trees.

W-Why?

[♪ dramatic music playing]

[Karadec] I know. It's terrible.
Try not to worry too much.

I love you. Bye.

[Morgan sighs]

- Everything okay?
- Hmm? Yeah.

Lucia's just having a hard time.

- With what?
- Uh, with the murder at her hotel.

Most people don't show up to work
expecting to see a dead body.

Right.

Just last week, I was watching
Vera and Frank put together a banquette

and now we're trying to find out
if he killed her.

[sighs]

[Morgan] This is new.

Oh.

Yeah, it's a gift from Lucia.

It's, uh, gypsum sand.

She said it's rare.

Like what we have.

She's right. It is rare.

I loved Vera.

The kind of love
where you rent out the penthouse suite

- to hook up with other women, right?
- No.

- So the bra was yours?
- [Karadec] We checked your records, Frank.

This wasn't the first time
you wanted to fly solo, was it?

But you thought
what she didn't know wouldn't hurt her.

Only she did find out about the women,
the lies, the partying.

You went behind her back

while telling the world
that you loved her.

I did. Vera and I were
always honest with each other, okay?

I don't know
what she was doing in that hotel.

I didn't even see her.

[Karadec] Okay, so you're cheating
on your wife in the same hotel…

I heard Lucia works at that hotel.

- Small world.
- Yeah.

I guess.

Being the happy couple that you see on TV
fixing houses, that was our brand, okay?

That wasn't who we were, not always.

Sometimes…

Look, we like to do our own thing.

I mean, as far as I know,
having a good time is not a crime.

[Karadec] No, it is not.

But knocking your wife out

when she walks in on you
with another woman

and then moving her dead body
so you can clean up the evidence,

- that would be a crime.
- My client's said enough.

Call us when you actually have something.

The bloody fingerprint
on the elevator button matches

Vera's blood imprint.

Mmm. So, we know Vera went up
to the penthouse.

That means Frank either wasn't there
at the same time

- or he's lying about not having seen her.
- I checked the hotel records.

Frank and Vera had a joint account
at the Blackwell Hotel.

So if one of them booked a hotel room,

the other would receive a digital key
on their phone automatically.

Then maybe Vera saw
where Frank was and wasn't as happy

about his partying
as he wants us to believe.

Okay, and what about the items
that were missing from the hotel room?

Yes, found them in the hotel dumpster

and pieces on the penthouse floor.

Looks like there was a fight
and someone tried to clean up.

But there was one item
we couldn't find anywhere.

The ME says
Vera's head wound is consistent

with the shape and size of that bookend.

So, we know what the murder weapon was,
but we don't know where it is?

Tell me the hotel cameras
caught something.

CCU is still working on it
but we should know soon.

Did you talk to the people
Frank was partying with?

Yeah, he gave us four names, all friends.

Most of them work for him.
His manager, Aaron Rothman.

One of his producers, Lois Mendel.

His stylist, Talia Cruz.

And last,
his best friend from college, Boyd Hollis.

Do we think they're covering for him?

Well, if they worked for him,
they have financial motive

to keep Vera from going public
about Frank's indiscretions.

[Oz] Boyd took some photos
at their party last night.

[Morgan] Wait a second.

Who's this guy?

None of Frank's friends mentioned
anyone else

being around last night, did they?

And you've never seen him before?

No. You guys?

Maybe someone at the hotel knows
who he is.

Morgan and I will go back.
We can check with Lucia.

Maybe ask around.

[phone rings]

You gonna get that?

- Kind of thought it was decorative.
- [phone continues ringing]

Hello.

[Willa] Morgan, this is Willa Quinn.

What do you want?

To warn you
about the danger you're headed into.

Believe it or not, I'm not your enemy.

I'm the person that warns you
before the enemy reaches you.

The way it reached Eric Hayworth?

I think we both know
that wasn't a suicide.

There's no way to catch up when the people
that are helping you are helping me too.

Back off, Morgan.

If you wanna threaten me, I think
you should come and do it to my fa--

- [line clicks, dial tone sounds]
- Did she just hang up on me?

Willa said the people helping you
are helping her too?

Those were her exact words?

Yep.

So, either she's got
someone working for her in the precinct,

or she wants me to think that she does.

- [sighs]
- What?

Willa was seen leaving
the Beverly Palms Country Club

with Nick Wagner Sr.
Captain Wagner's father.

Wha…

- Do we know why?
- No.

A while back,
the captain flat out asked me

how to get you to let him in
on the Roman investigation.

So I think we need
to consider the possibility

- that both Wagners are working with Willa.
- [sighs]

Does he know we know this?

Soto asked him about his involvement.
He denies having any.

Thank you for telling me.

Does he look familiar?

[stammers] Yeah, he's a guest, or was.

- He checked out a few minutes ago. Uh…
- [Karadec] Hmm.

Charles Hale. Yep, that's him.

Got a phone number?

- Uh-huh.
- Thanks.

I'm here for Detective Karadec.

Charles, thanks for coming in.

- Yeah.
- Right this way.

My plane leaves in a few hours.

This won't take long. Please have a seat.

Just a few questions.

It's my understanding you were staying
at the Blackwell Hotel, correct?

Yeah. Is this about Vera Hensley?

- It is. How do you know her husband?
- I don't.

I met him at the hotel bar.

I recognized him from The Big Fix.

- Mmm.
- Figured, what the hell? Say hi.

And he introduced me to all his friends.

- Was Vera with them?
- No.

Did you hear or see anything
that would make you think that Frank

or his friends might wanna hurt Vera
if she were there?

No. But…

there was a guy, 40s, white,
he was on his own.

He was looking for her.
He gave me a bad vibe.

Did you get a good look at this guy?
Enough to give us a description?

Hey.

Hey.

There you are. I was looking for you.

Yeah, I figured we should probably talk.

Which thing would you like to start with?

Are you working
with your father and Willa Quinn?

No. Absolutely not.

I believe you.

Good.

My subpoena to search Willa's office
in New York got shut down,

but I'm not done trying.

Well, I had an idea.

Only I can't do it and you should
certainly not get caught doing it.

Okay, you got it.

We'll circle back
to the other thing later.

I look forward to it.

- [phone buzzes]
- [softly] Sorry, sorry.

- You burned the house down yet?
- Thought about it.

- Can't figure out what you wanna do still?
- I actually have one idea.

But you might not like it.

- [elevator bell dings]
- I don't have to like it.

Well, that box of all Dad's stuff
that you keep in your closet.

- Can I use it?
- For what?

I don't know yet,
but I promise I'll take good care of it.

Ava, listen, I saved
all that stuff for you, okay?

You do whatever you want with it.

- Really?
- Yeah, but that's it.

Don't touch anything else
in my closet, okay?

Gotta go. I'll see you soon.

You think this is our guy?

Well, we showed the sketch
to Frank's friends,

but none of 'em saw him,
so we're sending it over to hotel staff.

Maybe we get lucky.

Wait a sec.

I've seen those eyes before.

As much as I'd love to put
Vera's killer together piece by piece,

unfortunately, Morgan,
we're not playing Mr. Potato Head.

Yeah? Well, maybe we should be.

You're telling me that's not
the exact same mouth, and her nose

and beauty mark, and her eyes
and ears, and this guy's forehead?

The reason no one's seen our mystery man
is because he doesn't exist.

Charles just Frankensteined a bunch
of features from Frank's friends together,

and we drew a picture about it.
Where is he?

He's gone. We had no reason to hold him.

He's not answering.

Daphne's got something for us.

CCU was able to recover some footage

from the Blackwell elevators
off the hotel computer.

I'm just looking through it.

ME places Vera's death
between 2:00 and 4:00 in the morning.

Start looking around there.
She was killed in the penthouse.

I don't think he'd wait
to bring her to the pool.

[Daphne] Here's something.

[Morgan]
Okay, you could fit a body in that cart.

[♪ suspenseful music playing]

[glass clinking]

[phone buzzes]

Lucia's on the way.

I told her we have some questions
about the investigation.

I have something I need to tell you, guys.

I probably should've mentioned it earlier.

- What is it?
- Um…

This morning, I saw Lucia
and Charles Hale together.

They were having a…

conversation.

A conversation?

Yeah, I couldn't really make out
what they were saying.

It was something about no cities,
just seasons, and frosty trees.

I don't know. I couldn't make sense of it.

All I can tell you is
it didn't make me feel good

because they were very friendly.

Well, Morgan, Lucia works for the hotel
and she talks to lots of the guests.

[chuckles]
You think that Lucia is involved

with the man
who may have killed Vera Hensley?

Look, I don't wanna be right about this.

Well, that's good, Morgan,
because you are not.

Look, Lucia's not seeing this man
or involved with this investigation.

When she comes in, we can ask her.

Adam, I don't think you should
be the one conducting this interview.

Well, then, watch me.

The moment you see
something you don't like, pull me out.

- [Karadec sighs]
- Mmm. I've never been in here before.

- Yeah, we don't, uh, use it very often.
- [gasps]

You have kids' toys.

So nice.

Well, with kids,
you want 'em to feel comfortable,

safe, you know, try to make
a bad situation a little better.

Mmm. Careful, you make a great dad
talking like that.

- Hmm.
- So, how can I help you with your case?

[sighs] You got called into work
pretty late last night.

I did.

What did they call you to the hotel for?

Apparently, Frank Hensley's party
got a little out of hand.

- What'd you find when you got there?
- Between you and me…

a mess.

Some of the items in the room were
even broken.

I just cleaned it up,
took it with me, and left.

How'd you get the stuff out?

I put it all in a hotel meal cart,
rolled it right onto the elevator.

Adam, what's going on?
Wait, are people watching us right now?

Yeah, this is a murder investigation,

and if I wasn't asking the questions,
someone else would be.

When you got to the penthouse,
who was there?

- No one.
- And how well do you know Charles Hale?

Mr. Hale does a lot of business in LA.

He stays at the Blackwell
when he's in town.

What else do you know about him?

I don't do background checks
on my guests, Adam.

Well, the thing is,
when we showed you his photo,

you neglected to mention
that he had been there before.

Well, our guests expect discretion.

If I had felt there was something
important, I would've told you.

We believe Vera Hensley was killed
in the penthouse

by Frank or Charles
and then moved to the pool.

And the only person that was
in the elevator around her time of death…

was you.

You think I took a dead woman downstairs
in a hotel meal cart?

No.

But it is my job to figure out who did.

Well, it's funny how your job seems
to keep coming in between us, but this…

This, I did not see coming.

We're looking for Charles right now.
Do you have any idea where he might be?

How would I know that? I don't know him!

Then, what were you guys talking
about on the street this morning?

Businessmen like Charles are
the type of VIPs we want coming back

to the Blackwell.

So, that means
sometimes I have to be a little friendly,

and sometimes a man like Charles can
take that the wrong way.

And when it happens,
I make sure the line is clear.

But Charles was…

Trying to cross that line?

First, he asked me
for restaurant recommendations.

Then he invited me to join, and I said no.

And I said no again.

And he followed me out onto the street,
and I told him to never come back.

I'm sorry that happened.

Maybe I should've told you. I just…

I didn't want you to worry.

- Hey, I'll walk you out.
- Uh, that's okay.

I know my way out.

[sighs]

Charles told me he's flying out today,
so we're checking manifests.

You didn't ask
about the "no cities, frosty trees" thing.

That's what Charles said to her.

That's what you thought you heard.

Hey, Morgan,
we already know Charles is lying.

Do you have any reason
to believe that Lucia is lying too?

Lying is a really strong word, but yeah,

I think there's something
she's not telling us.

What I saw was a woman whose boyfriend

was accusing her of being involved
in someone's murder.

I can't imagine
what that must've been like for her.

I know what it was like for me though.

I'm gonna get an update
from Daphne and Oz.

Hey, you want me
to be honest with you, right?

I just think it would be smart
to bring her back in

- and ask a couple more questions.
- It's not your call, Morgan.

Sorry.

I know this is uncomfortable for you,
okay?

Soto could talk to her, or you know what?

I'd be happy to do--

Do you want Lucia
to be guilty of something?

What does that mean?

Where are we at with Charles Hale?

Still monitoring the cell number
he gave the hotel. No location yet.

- I hope you know--
- Know what?

Is everything okay?

I get that this is hard for you,
but you and I both know

that if it was anyone else in that room,
you would be asking tougher questions.

Are you accusing me of not doing my job?

It's not just your job. This is personal.

I know exactly what this is!
And I don't need you managing me.

I am not one of your kids, Morgan,
so stop treating me like one!

[♪ pensive music playing]

[phone buzzes]

[Nick's dad]
Yeah, it's a big tent, big tent.

We need someone who's familiar
with the levers of government

and actually knows how to use them.

[sighs]

Excuse me one minute.

Ms. Quinn and I do tend
to move in similar circles

- if that's what you're after.
- That job that you had me offer Morgan

didn't come from you, did it?

It's okay. No offense taken.
It's nice to be wanted.

Uh, speaking of Willa,
should we hunt around,

see if we can go find her here, or…

would you rather just make a phone call?

Thank you.

I see you've decided
not to take my advice.

- What a shame.
- [single low piano note]

No, a shame is my daughter losing out
on 15 years with her father,

and that look on your face.

[sighs] Okay.

I'm here.

- What do you wanna say?
- This'll just take a minute.

You know, when I was growing up,

my father liked telling people
he was self-made,

got there on merit, which wasn't true.

There were people in your way

who suddenly lost credibility,
jobs, everything.

Some of 'em even disappeared,
and back then, I didn't understand.

Now I do.

It was you.

Well, you're right.
I have-- I've-- I've helped your father.

I've made introductions. I've given
advice sometimes… [whispers] …quietly.

[normal] That's what I do.

I'm willing to expose all of it,
every ugly detail.

You can't prove any of it.

Oh, I… I think actually we can.

Detailed logs of all of your calls,

texts, and e-mails
over the last year or so.

Technology really is incredible, isn't it?

You would not believe
how many incriminating documents

you can cram onto something this tiny.

- Well, if it's even real--
- Oh, it's real.

The guy we met on our last case
gave us an assist.

Decent bowler, great hacker.

- That's fraud.
- Felony, inadmissible.

Oh, absolutely, highly illegal.

The courts would never allow it,
but the press will.

You would really destroy
your father's life like this?

I wouldn't worry so much about him.

There's lots of stuff
about you on this file.

I find that highly doubtful.

Mr. Wagner and I don't keep up much
with correspondence.

No, you don't,
but he really loves bragging

to his high-powered friends
about his connections to you.

- He can't shut up about it.
- This is your leverage?

Well, if it isn't,
you have nothing to worry about.

But if it is, you know how to stop it.

Tell me what happened to Roman.

[exhales]

I've tried very hard
to keep this from reaching your life.

If you're doing all of this
to get answers for one child,

has it even entered your brain
that you're inches away

from putting baby Chloe
and Elliot in danger?

Okay. I'm done. Mwah.

[engine revs]

[horn honks]

[tires screech]

- No, no, no. You get back in the car.
- What are you doing?

- Stay away from me. Get back in the car.
- Okay, fine. It's fine. It's fine. Go, go.

You don't get to say my kids' names.

You have no idea what you're doing.

- I'm trying to warn you! Just--
- Tell me what you did!

Who are you protecting?

Okay. You need to think very carefully
about what you are asking.

Oh, my God! Just answer the question!

Fine, I'll give you what you want,

and then we'll see
how badly you wanna keep digging.

Did you speed through the red
before or after you ran into Willa's car?

She threatened my kids.
You would've done the same thing.

I wouldn't have ran the red.

I have something you should see.

Charles Hale's employment data
didn't check out.

Dates overlap.

One company doesn't exist,
so I ran his prints federally.

I got hits under three different names.

This guy's lived all over the place.

Alamogordo, New Mexico. San Angelo, Texas.

Yakima, Washington.

You know, I can run it in Copilot.

I'll have it categorize police reports
by location, date, and name,

then color code them by location
and create a summary of the findings.

Okay, here we go.

I'm finding reports on alleged scams
in multiple cities he's lived in.

Look, he posed
as a start-up investor in Phoenix.

A high-end real estate partner in Ojai.

So, he's not a businessman,
he's a con man.

So Frank was his next target,
but why kill Vera?

Well, hang on a second.

Charles checked into the hotel
the same day Frank did,

except Frank was a do-not-announce.

So, how did Charles know
he was even there?

Lucia.

You said Charles,
or whatever his real name is,

lived in Alamogordo?

New Mexico, yeah. Why?

That's by White Sands National Park,
the largest gypsum dune field in America.

- Gypsum?
- Unlike quartz sand,

gypsum sand dissolves completely in water,
which makes it incredibly rare.

Lucia gave this to Karadec.
It can't be a coincidence.

I think that she and Charles were
in the same city at the same time.

Where's Karadec?

[phone buzzes]

Yeah.

Charles Hale is a con man,
and I think Lucia is involved.

Morgan. I'm not gonna do this again.

Okay. Just hear me out, okay?

The day that Frank checked
into the Blackwell,

I think Charles was tipped off.

- He came to the hotel to con Frank.
- Any idea what the con was?

I mean, Frank and Vera's whole brand was
that they were a happy couple, right?

It made them millions.

So if Charles got evidence
that Frank wasn't the devoted husband

that he claimed to be…

Frank would've paid anything
to keep it from getting out.

Charles was gonna blackmail Frank.

[Morgan] While Frank and his friends went
to the pool,

Charles was in the room alone.

Vera walked in and caught him planting
a recording device.

So he had to take out the witness.

[Charles grunts, groans]

[Vera grunts]

Okay, so how did Vera end up by the pool?

[Morgan] She snuck out and she ran.

But that elevator is slow,

and she was afraid
that Charles would come after her.

[Daphne] So she took the stairs,
but we didn't see it

because there were no cameras there.

It was dark. She was disoriented.

Lucia did clean the room

like she told us,
but she left out one thing.

I think Charles was back in that room.

Unless Charles could've done
all of this on his own.

There were two things that Charles
could not have done on his own.

You think she erased the videotape.

And she tipped off Charles
in the first place

that his next big mark
just walked into her hotel lobby.

That's why Lucia's been so upset.

She's the one who brought
Charles Hale into the Blackwell Hotel.

I'm really sorry.

I'll call you back.

[sirens blaring]

[Lucia] Hey, Charles! Please!

Lucia.

- He won't listen to me.
- It's okay.

Let me handle it.

Charles, I need you to put the safety on
and drop it to the ground, please.

I don't think so.

You know, I got a feeling that you care
about Lucia as much as I do.

Do not do something
that she will have to live with

for the rest of her life, okay?

Don't do that to her.

Charles, there are some things
that you and I cannot change

no matter how much we want to.

But what we can decide is how this ends.

I can think about a bunch of ways
we can turn this day around,

but they all start
with you dropping that gun.

[♪ suspenseful music playing]

[♪ suspenseful music resolves]

[officer] Watch your head.

How did you know we would be here?

[sighs] "No cities, just seasons.
Frosty trees."

Those fans are there
to keep the frost off the trees.

That and Charles,
or whatever his real name is,

was trying to buy this place.

Just an instinct, I guess.

I didn't come here
to run away with him, Adam.

I just didn't want anyone else
to get hurt.

We met in New Mexico.

I was still getting over you,
and he seemed to understand that.

- Did you know what he did?
- Not at first.

But when I found out,
he said he wanted to change.

He just needed, like,
a couple more big paydays first.

So I helped him.

I pointed to a couple
of high-profile guests at other hotels.

[sighs]

But he didn't change.

So I left.

I came back here.

I bumped into you.

And then he showed up at the Blackwell

and told me if I didn't find
his next mark,

that he was gonna make sure
my cop boyfriend learned everything.

But that if I did it,
he would disappear for good.

I didn't want him to destroy everything
that we have, Adam.

Where's the bookend he used to kill Vera?

Adam, it's me.

[Selena] Yes, thank you.

They got him.
Charles is in custody. Everyone is safe.

I just got this.

- What is it?
- Willa came through.

This FBI agent, Lyla Flynn,

she was working undercover,
and she was murdered.

- [Morgan] Mm-hmm.
- Turns out she was dirty.

Mmm. It looks that way.
Selling intel, laundering money.

There's something else.

What?

They suspect
that Roman was working with her,

and when she decided to come clean,

he killed her.

This was a scandal too big for the FBI,
and Willa helped them bury it.

Security cameras caught these outside
Lyla's house the day she was murdered.

That's Roman's car.

No. [stammers]

I'm done. Let-Let's be done.

Can you give us a minute?

Yeah.

What does that mean?

Stop digging, okay?

Listen, I-I don't know.
It doesn't matter anymore.

It's just not safe.

It's not safe? It's never been safe.

Erik Hayworth, this woman… [stammers]
I don't know. I don't know what's true.

All I know is that if anything were
to happen to any of you--

Morgan, stepping away is
simply not an option anymore.

- Oh, my God.
- Okay, I'm scared too.

But I can take care of myself.

Whatever happens,
we'll do it together, okay?

[knocks on door]

- Hey.
- Hey.

Come in.

How you doing?

Well, the unis are taking Lucia
to the precinct now.

Oh, God. I'm sorry.

You don't have anything to be sorry for.

I'm sorry. You warned me.
I should've listened.

Should be charged
with accessory after the fact.

- Karadec.
- Though with the other cons

that her and Charles were involved in,
the charges will increase.

Adam.

[sighs heavily]

I can't believe this is happening.

Just cannot believe it.

- I feel so stupid.
- No, don't.

Please don't do that.

You did it right.

You did.
You opened your heart, you let her in.

That's always gonna be the right move.

I believed her.

I believe she wanted a life with me.

Now, I don't even know who this person is.

Yes, you do.

Yes, you do.

You do. It's the same person. You just…

You just loved her too much to see
the things that you didn't wanna see.

It's okay.

It's gonna be okay.

- I got to go see Ava's art show.
- Yeah.

- You wanna come with me?
- I would love to,

but I have some things that I really need
to take care of, you know.

Okay.

But I'm here if you need me.

I'm so glad you made it.

[Morgan chuckles]

Wow.

So, what do you think?

- Ava, this is--

[chuckles] Yes, I just fell asleep.
No, buddy, this is incredible.

[♪ "Somewhere Tonight" continues]

I am so impressed.
You did this all by yourself.

Well, I guess I had some help

Yeah, I guess you did.

You're not gonna start crying, are you?
Please don't embarrass me.

My little baby girl did this one!

Oh, my God, Mom.

- [camera shutter clicks]

Hey. What's going on?

Hey. My father gave me a name.

It's an old FBI ghost that was there
when everything went down with Roman.

I'm meeting him tonight.

- Tonight? Well, I-I gotta come with you.
- No.

You need to stay away
until I get eyes on this guy.

I'll be fine. You'll be there.

Come on, I need to talk to him.

Okay.

9:30, Rancho Park. South side of the pond.

Okay, I'll see you soon.
