Please,
you don't have to do this.

Randy.

Yo, got an interesting job
for you. Buffalo, New York.

-Talk to me.
-His name is Finn Helms.

Electrician.

Disappeared last night,
never came home from work.

His wife's offered
a $10,000 reward.

Any other details?

Yeah.
She's eight months pregnant.

Okay. Buffalo, New York.
Yeah, I can be there
in a couple hours.

Great. I'll let her know.

Hey, Randy, um...
I need a favor.

-Yeah, man, what's up?
-You remember that neurologist

I was telling you about,
the one my dad was working
with, Walt Fleming?

Yeah, yeah.
You-You met his son
in Boston, right?

That's the one, yeah, yeah.

So I called Yale and Stanford,

talked to a couple
of the, uh, department heads,

tried to figure out
what those two were working on.

-Okay, any luck?
-Not much.

They were telling me
that they're working
on something called

The Chronostasis Institute.

-What do they do?
-I-I don't know what they do.

That's the thing.
I was hoping maybe you
could poke around a little bit.

-Find something out for me.
-Yeah, you know it.

But, you know,
we're talking analog era,
patchy records and all.

Yeah, I'll just take
whatever you can get.

I got you, brother.

Thanks, buddy.

Hi, Colter Shaw.

-Oh. Grace.
Thank you for coming.
-Yeah.

-Please come in.
-Thank you.

So, your husband's been missing
since last night?

Yeah. Texted that
he had to work late.

-Works for the DWP?
-That's right.

I tried to wait up for him,
but I fell asleep.

He never came home.

Now Finn's phone
keeps going to voicemail

and none of his friends
have seen or heard from him.

And today was
my eight-month ultrasound.

We were gonna talk birth plans
with our doctor.

He never
would have missed that.

He was way too excited
to meet our little girl.

Look, you can see for yourself.

Sure.

Almost everything in our house
is a hand-me-down or used

except for this room.

He's been putting it
together for months.

He wants the best for our girl.

He doesn't even
want me going back
to work after she's born,

so I can be there for her.

Okay. And this is his?

-This is Finn's?
-Yeah.

-Do you mind if
I go through it? Okay.
-No, please.

Maybe your husband cut himself
while he was working up here?

No, I would've seen it.

But he's come home from work
with burns and bruises before.

Okay. What's that all about?

His supervisor
pushes them so hard.
Finn says accidents happen.

So...

Is it possible maybe
something happened
at work last night?

- Would they have
called you about that?

Yeah, no, not this guy.

Okay, I'm going to start there.
I just need the address
of the job site.

As you can see,
we don't have a lot of money.

But everything
I've put together,
everything I have, it's yours.

Just please bring Finn home.

I'll do everything
I can for you.

Excuse me. Hi.
Looking for your supervisor.

Yeah, Kelly's back by the box.

All right, thank you.

Geez!

This is what happens
when you bond the wrong link!

-It's all right.
-That's 7,000 volts!

You touch it,
you're a human torch!

-I didn't know.
-And that's what kills people.

Do better, or I'll put you back
on scrap detail.

Excuse me.

-You from OSHA or the city?
-Neither. I'm looking
for Finn Helms.

He's missing.

His wife hired me to find him.

Said he was working last night.
No one's heard from him since.

You said last night?

-Yeah.
-Doyle, go get
the conduit off the truck.

Something happen last night?

I wouldn't know.
I haven't seen Finn in months.

Haven't seen him in months?

Two months, to be exact.

Fired him.

Well, his wife
didn't mention that.

Guess we all got secrets.

Why'd you fire him?

Caught him taking materials
off my job site.

He said he was borrowing it
for another job.

- He was moonlighting?
- I don't know.

Didn't ask, didn't care.

A thief's a thief.

Now... ...
if you don't mind, I got an inspector coming in two hours.

Hope you find him.

Thank you.

-Doyle, right?
-Yeah?

Yeah. Yeah.

You buddies with Finn?

I noticed you seemed concerned
when I brought him up.

Yeah. Look, man,
um, Kelly's already
on my ass, okay?

So I don't wanna attract
any more attention.

-I really need this job, okay?
-Nothing like that.

No, I'm just trying
to figure out what happened to
him, where he might have gone.

That's all. Now, your boss said
that, uh, he fired him
a few months ago

for stealing for another job?

I mean, I wouldn't exactly
call it stealing, but yeah,

he said he was gonna
borrow some stuff.

He was gonna
replace it, though.

Okay. What was that job?

He's just pulling
cash gigs off PowerUp.

-Off of PowerUp?
-Yeah.

What's that?
What's-What's PowerUp?

PowerUp is, like, an app
some of the guys around here

use just to get
extra work and stuff.

Like upgrade a board,
bypass a meter,
stuff like that.

Why would he lie to his wife
about something like that?

I don't know.
Maybe 'cause not all the jobs
on there are above board.

Okay, and is he still doing
that kind of work?

Yeah. I mean, sometimes
he kicks me cash to help out.

-Was he working last night?
-Yeah.

He called me, asked if I wanted
to help him on a rewire job,

but I had a date.

Yeah, okay.

Did-Did he mention
where that-that job might be?

You find something on Finn?

Found his van.
No sign of him.

This house job
he was working on,

it looks like they were
tapping into fiber,

probably stealing information.

Okay. Explains why he
didn't want to call his wife.

Something went
wrong here, though.
Someone got electrocuted.

On the ladder,
there's melted rubber.

-Can't be good.
-Finn?

I don't know.
There's two sets of tools here.

It's definitely not a job
you'd want to do solo.

Okay, so someone else
must have been there
and left in a hurry, yeah?

Listen,
there's a security camera
on the house that I spotted.

It's pointing
in this direction.
Can you tap into that thing?

Okay.

All right. I'm in.
Sending you the feed now.

Looks like
they're carrying a body.

Really hope that's
not Finn in that tarp.

I need to know
where that truck's going.

I'm looking.

Okay, I got it on
a traffic cam across town,

but then I lose it.

Anything in the area?
A place they could hide
or dump a body?

Yep. Looks like woods.
Some undeveloped lots, maybe.

Great. Can you send me a pin?

Already did.

All right, I got it.
Thanks, Randy.

The liability shield
is a nonnegotiable, Jerry.

The clause stays.

Okay. Well,
if you want to contest it,
you can put it in writing.

Great. I look forward
to getting it.

-Sorry to interrupt.
-No, no worries. What's up?

You have a visitor.

Oh. I didn't see anything
on the schedule.

Yeah, yeah,
I think it's more of like
a walk-in type of thing.

Um, he's cute.

Hey, come in.

Mark.

Um...

What are you doing here?

Well, I'm in town for work.
I remembered you lived here.

Turns out
there's only one lawyer
named Reenie in Denver.

Well...

Wait, aren't you a bartender?

Close.

I'm a brand rep
for a mezcal company.

We're launching a new product
and Denver's one
of our test markets.

I'm sorry to drop in like this.

I just wanted to see
if you were free for dinner.

I am flattered, really,
but I am just slammed, so...

Well, if you do need
to come up for air,

I'll be at
the Howland downtown.
You can call or drop by.

No pressure.

I will keep that in mind.

Uh-uh. Not a word.

Hey!

What do you guys got?

Who the hell are you?

Who the hell is that?

None of your business.

I know you ain't a cop.

Why don't you crawl
down in that hole
and unwrap that tarp?

Don't move.

This guy don't have the balls.

Crawl down in the hole
and unwrap the tarp.

Okay, now hold on.
We didn't kill him.

It was an accident.

Who is he?

Some tweaker we picked up
to help with the job
we were working on.

-Illegally tapping lines.
-That's right.

But this guy must've been high
or something.

He never should've been
up on a ladder.

Then he goes
and touches the transformer
and fries himself.

We told him to watch his ass.

This guy is a screwup.
He will not be missed.
You understand?

And what about Finn?
He feel the same way?

-Finn freaked out
after the accident.
-Did he call the cops?

No, man. Paolo talked him down.

Who's Paolo?

The guy who hired us.
Said he was gonna take
Finn for a couple beers.

Well, Finn never made it home.

You know something,
or something you want
to tell me?

Where Paolo
might have taken Finn?

He has a building downtown.

Downtown? Okay.
We're gonna call this in.
All right?

You Paolo?

You got to help me, man.

Finn do this to you?

No.

I was just...

gonna scare him
into keeping quiet.

I mean, we screwed up,
but calling the cops...

I couldn't let him do that.

I drug...
I drug myself in here.

I mean, you got to call
somebody. You gotta help me.

Did you see who hit you?

Some crazy chick.

But you didn't know
who she was?

No, but Finn sure did.

She got out of the car.
She went straight for him.

I think she was his wife.

This woman, was she pregnant?

No, no, not this lady.

Wait, you think Finn
was having an affair?

I don't know.
I think it's possible.

Can you check his socials,
see if he's had contact
with anyone?

Not seeing anything sus.

Well, whoever she is,
there's no obvious
digital connect.

Maybe they met at work.
You check his PowerUp account?

PowerUp.

-Oh. This might be something.
-What do you got?

Okay, um,
a woman named Adelle Mucino

hired Finn to install
some lighting a few weeks ago,

and they got some messages
on the app.

-This chat is awfully personal.
-So, what are they saying?

She says,

"So crazy seeing you
after all this time.
Felt like fate."

Smiley, blushy face,
heart, heart.

And then he says, "Yeah,
really good seeing you. Later."

Any idea how they met?

Okay.

Looks like they met
on a dating app
about three years ago.

He was seeing his wife
at that time, right?

Yeah. I got
the archives of their chat.

So it looks like they met when
Finn and Grace were on a break,

and then they got back together
and he ended things
with Adelle and...

-been no contact since.
-Until she hired him
for that job.

Okay, so maybe
they rekindled things
and seen each other on the DL.

That would explain
why he didn't check in
with his wife last night.

Uh, maybe. I don't know.

You, uh, gonna tell
Grace about this?

No. No, I'm not gonna tell
anyone till I know for sure.

I could use the address
of that Adelle if you have it.

That's why I sent it.

Perfect. Got it. Thanks, Randy.

Hey.

What happened?

You were shot.

But luckily the bullet
went right through,
so I was able to patch you up.

Don't worry.

No hospitals, no police.
No one knows where you are.

Especially not your wife.

I need to go home
or call or something.

I don't think
that's a good idea.

It's for your safety.

Reenie, what's up?

Adelle Mucino is not at all
who she says she is.

She changed her name
eight years ago
from Adelle Livers.

And Adelle Livers
was arrested for stalking
and attacking her ex-boyfriend.

I mean,
she was eventually remanded
into psychiatric treatment,

but she's been in and out
of facilities ever since.

Yeah, I'm at her place
right now. She seems,
uh, unstable at best.

Oh, no. What'd you find?

Found her journal.

She's got endless love letters
to Finn. She's fantasizing
about a life with him.

She... She edited her own face
into his wedding photo.

And I don't even want
to tell you about this bear
that I'm staring at right now.

Wow. Okay, so she wasn't having
an affair with Finn then.

No, no, I don't think so.

I think she was stalking him.
I don't know for how long.

Uh, I'm thinking maybe
if she was following
him last night,

she saw him in an altercation,
she intervened.

So, if she didn't bring him
back to her place,
then where are they?

Yeah.

There's something here.
It's a luxury home rental
that she manages.

It's a brochure. Maybe she...
Maybe she took him there.

What are you doing?

I was just trying
to get some water.

I'm really thirsty.

Here.

That is what
the restraints are for.

So you don't hurt yourself
any more than you are.

Thank you.

-What are we
doing here, Adelle?
-You remember our first date?

I got that flat tire on
the bridge, and you changed it
for me in the rain.

I... I remember.

Almost got hypothermia.

You were so sweet and so kind.

I knew right then that
we just had this special thing,

this spark.

I know you felt it too.

Right?

Oh.

And you went back
to Grace anyway.

I've got to admit I was, uh...

I was really heartbroken
after that.

I went to that
bridge numerous times,
just wondering what went wrong.

I even thought about jumping.

But then the universe was...

I swear,
it was just testing me.

It was telling me
I needed to be patient.

That you would come
back to me. And look.
Here you are.

I think I should go home.

But this could be
your home, Finn.

Our home.

We have everything here
that we need to be happy.

It doesn't have
any of that garage sale crap
your wife puts in your house.

How do you know
what's inside my house?

When Grace posted her
maternity announcement,
I had to go.

I had to see for myself
if it was true.

It wasn't a coincidence that
you hired me for that job,
was it?

Of course not.

But I had to find a way
to get us together.

And then I saw you working
on this place,

and it was like we were already
building something
so beautiful together.

It was just a wire job, Adelle.

It was a cry for help,

when you confessed to me
that you were fired,

and you couldn't even tell
your own wife.

-That is not what I meant.
-You don't have to explain.

You confided in me,
and I am so honored
that you did.

I want to help you.

- So you've been following me since...
- -Following?

I don't think following
is the right word.

"Looking out for you"
is more like it.

And I was right there
when you needed me, when
that man tried to kill you.

Everything happens
for a reason.

And you are here.
And you're safe.

We can start over.

Listen, Adelle.

I am so thankful for everything
you've done for me, truly.

But I can't just
leave my wife and child. I...

But what if they were
to go away?

What if Grace had an accident?
It happens all the time.

You're crazy.

You need to let me go.

After everything
I've done for you?

And I won't tell anyone
about this. I swear.

Hey, hey. This could be
our little secret.

Adelle.

Hey.

I, uh, I finished
organizing the affidavits

and everything's ready
for tomorrow's meeting
with Maxine.

Great, thank you.
I think that's everything

if you want to head home
for the night.

You sure?
'Cause I-I don't mind.

No, we're all good.

Well, in case you wanted
to go to the dinner?

What?

With your friend?

Uh, yeah, no, I-I can't.
I'm way too swamped.

Right, yeah. You've taken
on a lot. I get it.

I do the same thing
sometimes, actually.

What does that mean?

Well...

I used to run track
in high school.

400-yard dash,
that was my, uh, my event.

But after my mom died,
I... I kind of threw
myself into it.

I was doing it before school
and on the weekends.

I don't know, maybe I thought
that if I pushed myself
hard enough, I could...

I could, like,
outrun the grief.

And I know that sounds
like barfy Hallmark crap,

but yeah, it's pretty much
what I was doing.

And I'm assuming
that didn't work out for you?

You would be correct. Yeah.

I tore my ACL
and ended my running career.

I'm sorry.

It's okay. It's...

Well, no, actually it sucked,

but I learned some things
about myself.

I figured some things out.

-Uh-huh.
-Mm-hmm.

And so what?

Do you think I'm pushing
myself too hard, just like
you did in high school?

And so does Colter
and so does Randy.

-I didn't mean to overstep.
-And I get it.

And I appreciate that,
but this is how
I handle things.

Okay? Someone's got
to keep working.

My mom, my sister,
they're feelers. They feel
everything all the time,

and it hinders them
from getting things done.

I'm like my dad,
you know? I'm a doer.

When he got sick, I was the one
that got the groceries

and I was the one that
made sure the bills were paid.

And I sat by his bedside
and gave him his shots

when he couldn't do it
himself anymore. Like,

we had to keep going.

That's me. Someone's got
to keep the ship running.
You know?

Yeah.

You know, maybe
we're not so different.

Yeah, okay.

I hear you.

And I will take a breath soon.

Okay.

Well, good.

Now, we can sit here
and we can go through
all these files,

but just so you know,
I'm gonna be oversharing
like this all night.

-No.
-Yeah.

Don't do that.

Or you could go to that dinner.

It's okay. It's okay.
Sorry about that.

My name's Colter Shaw.
Your wife hired me to find you.
Are you okay?

Yeah.

Where's Adelle?

She stormed out of the room
with a gun. I think
she's going after Grace.

Let's get you out of here.
Come on.

Hi. Can I help you?

-Are you Grace? Finn's wife?
-Yeah, I am. What's this about?

There's been an accident.
I found your husband
on the side of the road.

- Is he all right?
- I don't know,

but he was asking for you
and he... he told me
to give you this,

that you would know
that it was his.

Oh, my God. Oh, my God.

-I can take you
to him though, now.
-Okay. Yeah, yeah.

She's not picking up.

You think Adelle
would hurt her?

She is crazy. She thinks
we're meant to be together.

When I said I had
to go home, she lost it.

Your house has a...
a door camera, right?

Maybe try to access it from
my phone? Get the passcode?

- Yeah, yeah.
- Give it a whirl.

Okay.

- Oh, my God.
- What do you got?

Adelle's already got Grace.

All right, if Adelle
was gonna stage an accident,
where might she take her?

-Can you think
of anyplace at all?
-I-I have no idea.

Just think back.
Someplace, uh, maybe you two
spent time together,

something that has meaning
to her, anything.

The Honor Bridge.

We-We got stranded there
at our first date.

The Honor Bridge.
Is it isolated?

It's been closed
for repairs for months.

It's about five miles south
of here. You can make a left.

Okay, that's
gotta be the place.
No witnesses, right?

-Left here?
-Yeah.

Hold on. Here we go.

No, no.
Please, please, please.
I'm begging you.

Please, let me go.

If not for me,
then-then do it for our baby.

Step onto the railing.

- That's Adelle's car.
- Okay.

You wait here.
Call the police, all right?

Adelle.

Stay back.

Or I will kill her, I swear.

You don't want to do this.

You don't know what I want.

I know you care about Finn.
I know you don't want
to hurt him.

I'm doing this for Finn
so we can be together.

It doesn't have
to happen this way, Adelle.

I love Grace
more than anything
in this world.

If you take them away...

you might as well kill me too.

But what about us?

I'm sorry, but there is no us.

Put the gun down. Put it down.

No, but we were supposed
to be together.

-Now I have nothing.
-Adelle!

I have no one.

Oh, God, what have I done?

No, hey.

Adelle. Adelle. Hey!

Get back. Stay back.

Okay. Okay.

Let's just talk.

Let's talk, Adelle.

-Adelle?
-I'm so sorry.

I got you.

-Hi.
-Reenie.

Am I too late?

No, not at all. Come in.

Work cleared up, I guess?

No, actually not at all.
It can wait.

So you want to go downstairs,
grab dinner, or...

Or we could do that.

First, I want you to understand
how this is gonna work.

I remember. No strings.

Mmm. Actually,
I would like to go to dinner.

-Oh?
-Mm-hmm.

And I would like
to learn all about mezcal.

Mm-hmm.

And you can do that thing
that people do when they get
to know each other.

But first...

Look who's here.

Hey.

Well, well. The hero himself.

Were you on your way
out of town?

I was, yeah, on my way
out of town.

This is great,
by the way. Good job.

I wanted to, um, come by
and, uh, give you something
for the baby.

- Did you make this?
- I did, yeah.

It's a little trade
I picked up from my father.

- Mmm. Thank you.
- Mm-hmm.

And, uh,
thank you for saving our lives.

You hold on to that, okay?

You can use it for the...
the baby's college fund.

I'm just glad everyone's okay.

Yeah. We are,
now that Adelle's in custody.

Well, I'm still groveling
for lying about the work
I was doing.

But I thought I was just doing
what was best for our family.

I don't know how wrong I was.

No more secrets.

- Randy, what's up?
You got a job for me?

This is about that other thing
you asked me to look into.

My dad.
You find any information
on the Chronostasis Institute?

Maybe.

A name kept popping up.

David Pearson, that other guy
from your dad's files?

Okay, go on.

Yeah, well,
there was a cash purchase
for plane tickets to Alaska

for both him and your dad.

-When?
-Four months
before your dad died.

Pearson rented a place
in this small town,
Copper Valley.

-They were still
working together.
-Yeah. Get this.

There were government
subcontractors leasing land
up there at the same time

under an LLC called TIC.

All the files are either
very redacted or very cryptic.

Hey, you want me
to keep looking into things,

I'll see if I can find
something else.

No, no, uh...

Just send me
everything you have.

Thanks, Randy.

I know what I have to do.
