Today could be the last day of my trial,

meaning I could be going home
in a few hours, or--

00:00:07,925 --> 00:00:09,092
Or you could be going to prison.

are in short supply.

in even shorter supply.

Mostly just came to see if we're even now.
12
00:00:22,606 --> 00:00:24,733
What's your obsession with us
getting even? What is it?

It's a lot of them.

The em dashes? Oh, I like them.
They suit the story.

Uh, they're a bit aggressive.
Commas might give you a better flow.

Don't get excited. I'm asking
because I may have a job for you.

Change your shirt and meet me
at the address I'm about to send you.

Why do I have to change my shirt?

Because these people have money
and refinement,
52
00:02:12,424 --> 00:02:15,260
and the last time they saw
a grown man wearing an aloha shirt,
53
00:02:15,344 --> 00:02:17,179
he was probably cleaning their pool.
54
00:02:18,805 --> 00:02:20,599
Oh. Okay.

Hey.

00:02:45,582 --> 00:02:47,918
Welcome to the humble abode
of the Carter family.
63
00:02:48,543 --> 00:02:51,213
Carter. Oh, as in Carter Rehab?
64
00:02:51,296 --> 00:02:52,881
- Got it in one.
- Huh.
65
00:02:52,964 --> 00:02:56,968
In addition to owning the biggest chain
of drug rehab centers in Florida,
66
00:02:57,052 --> 00:03:00,389
Ed Carter also funded a wing
at the Institute of Contemporary Art.
67
00:03:00,472 --> 00:03:03,600
Gonna go out on a limb and say he's
also one of your dad's biggest donors.
68
00:03:03,684 --> 00:03:08,146
He is. And so when the family realized
they needed help with a sensitive issue,
69
00:03:08,230 --> 00:03:09,439
they came to me.
70
00:03:09,523 --> 00:03:10,941
I told them it was a job
71
00:03:11,024 --> 00:03:14,569
for a very dependable,
very discreet private investigator.
72
00:03:14,653 --> 00:03:17,072
- Do good work. Do it quietly.
- Oh. Okay.
73
00:03:17,155 --> 00:03:18,907
I can virtually guarantee
they'll be back for more.
74
00:03:18,990 --> 00:03:20,784
- Okay.
- Background checks, security gigs,
75
00:03:20,867 --> 00:03:22,661
due diligence, and they'll pay top dollar.
76
00:03:22,744 --> 00:03:24,746
This shirt, this is the upgrade?
77
00:03:24,830 --> 00:03:27,332
Let's go hear about
this sensitive issue, shall we?
78
00:03:32,379 --> 00:03:33,505
[person 1] That's Holden.
79
00:03:34,089 --> 00:03:37,384
He lives in Naples but stays with us
whenever family business requires it.
80
00:03:37,467 --> 00:03:39,845
So, usually,
it's just you and your dad here?
81
00:03:39,928 --> 00:03:41,805
He sends his regards, by the way.
82
00:03:41,888 --> 00:03:44,891
He's wrapping up some work in Orlando,
but we are both worried about Holden.
83
00:03:44,975 --> 00:03:48,437
He didn't come home last night,
and he isn't responding to calls or texts.
84
00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:51,773
You're moving pretty quickly bringing
someone like me on. Can I ask why?
85
00:03:53,108 --> 00:03:54,776
The more he knows, the more he can help.
86
00:03:56,111 --> 00:03:58,697
Holden has struggled
with drug addiction for years.
87
00:03:58,780 --> 00:04:00,782
My father and I think
he may have relapsed.
88
00:04:00,866 --> 00:04:03,827
Relapsed. So, he had gotten clean
at some point?
89
00:04:03,910 --> 00:04:05,078
A little over 18 months ago.
90
00:04:05,162 --> 00:04:07,706
He went to a facility in Switzerland
for the first six months,
91
00:04:07,789 --> 00:04:09,040
then came back to Florida.
92
00:04:09,124 --> 00:04:11,376
Since then, he has been working
as a rehab counselor
93
00:04:11,460 --> 00:04:12,669
in one of our Naples clinics.
94
00:04:13,837 --> 00:04:18,258
It's not like him to be out of touch,
at least not now that he's sober.
95
00:04:18,341 --> 00:04:22,053
Your job is to find Holden
quickly and quietly.
96
00:04:22,137 --> 00:04:25,557
If he has relapsed, Mr. Carter doesn't
want the police involved.
97
00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:27,809
Too much chance of the story
breaking to the media.
98
00:04:27,893 --> 00:04:29,186
I understand, and I wanna help.
99
00:04:29,269 --> 00:04:32,689
The best place for me to start
is with whoever saw him last.
100
00:04:32,773 --> 00:04:36,443
I dropped Holden off at
the community center a little before 1600.
101
00:04:36,526 --> 00:04:37,736
Support group meeting.
102
00:04:37,819 --> 00:04:39,780
So, you knew about
his history with addiction?
103
00:04:39,863 --> 00:04:43,033
Ten years working for the Carters.
They don't keep any secrets from me.
104
00:04:43,116 --> 00:04:46,536
I drive Holden whenever he's in town.
I waited up front like I usually do.
105
00:04:46,620 --> 00:04:49,080
90 mikes later, everybody comes out
except for Holden.
106
00:04:49,164 --> 00:04:51,750
I went inside, but no sign of him.
107
00:04:51,833 --> 00:04:53,335
How did he seem to you yesterday?
108
00:04:53,418 --> 00:04:56,546
Honestly, I was relieved
he wanted to get to a meeting.
109
00:04:56,630 --> 00:04:59,132
He seemed distracted, a little down.
110
00:04:59,216 --> 00:05:00,801
Any read on what was bothering him?
111
00:05:00,884 --> 00:05:03,220
He was pretty tight-lipped. That's part
of why I was worried about him.
112
00:05:03,303 --> 00:05:07,474
You served, huh? 1600, 90 mikes.
You tell time like a soldier.
113
00:05:08,558 --> 00:05:10,936
Not a soldier. A Marine.
114
00:05:11,019 --> 00:05:16,483
Oh, okay. Uh, is that why
Ed Carter chose you to drive his son?
115

Wealthy, high-profile family.
116
00:05:18,735 --> 00:05:20,987
Maybe there are security threats
I should know about--
117
00:05:21,071 --> 00:05:22,072
Sorry, no.
118
00:05:22,864 --> 00:05:25,700
The biggest danger to Holden
has always been Holden.

[softly] Got it.
120
00:05:28,411 --> 00:05:31,331
Community center where you dropped
him off, can I get the address?
121
00:05:31,414 --> 00:05:33,041
Yeah, yeah, he looks familiar.
122
00:05:33,124 --> 00:05:36,086
He would have come in around 4:00 p.m.
yesterday, headed for the rec room,
123
00:05:36,169 --> 00:05:39,297
but we think he went out a different way,
maybe the back or the side entrance.
124
00:05:39,381 --> 00:05:42,717
- Out there, I saw you had cameras--
- Hold on, 4:00 p.m.? In the rec room?
125
00:05:42,801 --> 00:05:45,512
- Yeah, he was here for an NA meeting.
- Just forget I said I saw him.
126
00:05:45,595 --> 00:05:48,765
And if you're about to ask to look at
the security footage, don't even bother.
127
00:05:48,849 --> 00:05:51,434
Anyone our cameras caught
coming in for that meeting
128
00:05:51,518 --> 00:05:53,687
is entitled to their privacy, okay?
End of story.
129
00:05:53,770 --> 00:05:56,940
- I get that.
- My sister is five years sober, okay?
130
00:05:57,023 --> 00:05:59,359
Anonymity is crucial to the work.
131
00:05:59,442 --> 00:06:02,821
I'm here because his sister thinks
he might be in trouble. Like real trouble.
132
00:06:02,904 --> 00:06:05,615
Look, I get that you don't want me
looking at the footage,
133
00:06:05,699 --> 00:06:08,118
- but you said you were here yesterday.
- Yeah, so?
134
00:06:08,201 --> 00:06:10,453
So you already saw everyone
that came in here for the meeting.
135
00:06:13,582 --> 00:06:14,958
Your guy didn't use a side exit.
136

Check the rear door.
137
00:06:22,048 --> 00:06:25,302
Looks like he came out the back
right before the meeting would've started.
138
00:06:25,385 --> 00:06:28,513
He's making a call.
Now he's talking to someone.
139
00:06:28,597 --> 00:06:29,764
Who? Who's he talking to?
140
00:06:29,848 --> 00:06:32,601
Someone walked up.
I can't see who. They're off camera.
141
00:06:34,019 --> 00:06:35,645
But your guy, he looks a little...

00:06:40,150 --> 00:06:41,902
Yeah, I think that would be good.

not one of the 12 steps.

{\an8}- Do you think it's a sex thing?
- Well, this being Florida,
148
00:07:07,260 --> 00:07:09,763
{\an8}the answer to that question
should almost always be "maybe."
149
00:07:09,846 --> 00:07:12,057
{\an8}But no, I-I'm more worried
it could be an abduction.
150
00:07:12,140 --> 00:07:13,141
{\an8}Abduction?
151
00:07:13,224 --> 00:07:15,685
{\an8}You see how the big guy keeps
his arm pointed at Holden?
152
00:07:15,769 --> 00:07:17,312
{\an8}It occurred to me
that wearing that costume
153
00:07:17,395 --> 00:07:19,022
{\an8}might be a good way to conceal a gun.
154
00:07:19,105 --> 00:07:21,066
{\an8}Yeah, well, you need to be sure.

was just an old buddy pulling a prank?

00:16:26,777 --> 00:16:29,780
[sighs] But she was so excited. [chuckles]
327
00:16:29,864 --> 00:16:30,865
And it was easy for you.
328
00:16:30,948 --> 00:16:35,411
$300, $400 for a couple hours
of self-care, it's no problem, right?
329
00:16:36,329 --> 00:16:37,747
Please don't be this way.
330
00:16:37,830 --> 00:16:40,082
- What way? Poor?
- You are not poor.
331
00:16:40,166 --> 00:16:44,545
No, but I was. Growing up, my apartment--
two bedrooms, one bathroom--
332
00:16:44,629 --> 00:16:45,630
Six kids. I remember.
333
00:16:45,713 --> 00:16:48,716
Yeah. Can you guess how many spa days
me and my sisters enjoyed?
334
00:16:49,508 --> 00:16:51,761
You always do this. You hold the fact
335
00:16:51,844 --> 00:16:53,888
- that I have a little money against me.
- A little?
336
00:16:53,971 --> 00:16:56,599
My grandparents left me
what they left me. I'm sorry.
337
00:16:56,682 --> 00:17:01,229
Besides, you and I are married.
What's mine is yours. Yours is mine.
338
00:17:01,896 --> 00:17:04,607
- Like this house?
- Like this house. Our house.
339
00:17:04,690 --> 00:17:06,943
- What?
- You put all the money down.
340
00:17:07,777 --> 00:17:11,614
Yeah. Yeah, I did, with your permission,
341
00:17:11,697 --> 00:17:14,825
because you agreed that this
was the best school district for Sofia
342
00:17:14,909 --> 00:17:15,910
by a mile.
343
00:17:15,993 --> 00:17:18,913
I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
Sorry, I... [stammers]
344
00:17:18,996 --> 00:17:21,374
I love this house.
[whispers] Sofia, she loves this house.
345
00:17:21,457 --> 00:17:22,458
It could just... [inhales]
346
00:17:22,541 --> 00:17:25,461
[smacks lips] It could feel
like something I won
347
00:17:26,128 --> 00:17:27,421
and not something I earned.
348
00:17:29,507 --> 00:17:34,387
The spa day, I'll sign off on it, okay?
As long as we split it.
349
00:17:34,470 --> 00:17:37,348
Yeah, sure. Whatever you want.
350
00:17:37,431 --> 00:17:38,432
[softly] Okay.
351
00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:48,401
[phone buzzes]
352
00:17:52,113 --> 00:17:54,365
Hey, you get my message
about the mascot and Holden's phone?
353
00:17:54,448 --> 00:17:58,286
- [Emi] I did.
- Guy that called 47 times, Rico Delaware.
354
00:17:58,369 --> 00:17:59,620
Turns out he's a street artist
355
00:17:59,704 --> 00:18:02,123
who spent some time
at one of the Carter Rehab Clinics.
356
00:18:02,206 --> 00:18:03,749
Apparently, he didn't have
a good experience
357
00:18:03,833 --> 00:18:05,376
because he went to war
with them last year.
358
00:18:05,459 --> 00:18:06,961
He put up a bunch of anti-Carter graffiti
359
00:18:07,044 --> 00:18:08,170
- all over town.
- R.J.
360
00:18:08,254 --> 00:18:10,131
I mean, 47 calls to a member
of a family you hate,
361
00:18:10,214 --> 00:18:12,758
that's got to be harassment,
maybe even a prelude to a kidnapping.
362
00:18:12,842 --> 00:18:15,177
We find Rico Delaware,
maybe we find Holden.
363
00:18:15,261 --> 00:18:17,471
R.J., Holden has been found.
364
00:18:17,555 --> 00:18:19,849
Oh, okay. Where? Where was he?
365
00:18:19,932 --> 00:18:22,643
Some little no-tell motel downtown.
366
00:18:22,727 --> 00:18:26,439
Housekeeper came in to clean the room,
found him with a needle in his arm.
367
00:18:27,565 --> 00:18:31,736
He overdosed. I just identified
his body for the Carters.
368
00:18:34,530 --> 00:18:35,573
[sighs]
369
00:18:46,709 --> 00:18:48,502
He's been like that for hours.
370
00:18:48,586 --> 00:18:52,006
When Holden was little,
he was the apple of Dad's eye,
371
00:18:52,089 --> 00:18:54,133
and nothing was too good for Holden.
372
00:18:54,216 --> 00:18:59,513
So you can imagine how much it hurt Dad
when drugs came into the picture.
373
00:18:59,597 --> 00:19:02,224
Especially given
the family business. [chuckles]
374
00:19:02,308 --> 00:19:05,686
You could call it ironic, if all
the papers didn't already do it years ago.
375
00:19:05,770 --> 00:19:07,772
On the subject of media,
376
00:19:07,855 --> 00:19:11,400
my office has been in steady contact
with the FLPD regarding messaging,
377
00:19:11,484 --> 00:19:14,070
and we don't see any reasons
for the specifics of Holden's passing
378
00:19:14,153 --> 00:19:15,613
- to go public.
- Thank you.
379
00:19:15,696 --> 00:19:18,658
And thank you for trying to help us.
380
00:19:18,741 --> 00:19:21,869
I've already Zelle'd your account
for your services, plus a bonus
381
00:19:21,952 --> 00:19:24,455
- for your continued discretion.
- Oh.
382
00:19:24,538 --> 00:19:28,250
Uh, I appreciate that. But my discretion,
it's-it's part of package.
383
00:19:28,334 --> 00:19:30,711
I'm only sorry
we couldn't find Holden sooner.
384
00:19:33,714 --> 00:19:35,132
Ms. Carter, I'm sorry. I have to ask.
385
00:19:35,216 --> 00:19:37,885
Did Holden ever mention anything
about harassing phone calls?
386
00:19:37,968 --> 00:19:38,969
I'm sorry?
387
00:19:39,053 --> 00:19:43,057
When I found his phone, I saw there was
a bunch of calls from Rico Delaware.
388
00:19:43,140 --> 00:19:44,225
I assume you know that name.
389
00:19:44,308 --> 00:19:47,353
That has to be a mistake.
That man hates my family.
390
00:19:47,436 --> 00:19:49,480
He wouldn't have been in Holden's phone.
391
00:19:49,563 --> 00:19:52,900
Holden never mention
any business he needed to tend to
392
00:19:52,983 --> 00:19:54,568
that wasn't related to the clinics?
393
00:19:54,652 --> 00:19:55,736
Anyone he was planning to meet
394
00:19:55,820 --> 00:19:57,405
- the day he went missing?
- No, no one.
395
00:19:57,488 --> 00:19:58,614
Do you understand any of this?
396
00:19:58,698 --> 00:20:00,991
Naomi, sorry.
Can you excuse us for a moment?
397
00:20:04,078 --> 00:20:05,371
What do you think you're doing?
398
00:20:06,205 --> 00:20:09,375
I think I'm asking questions
about a death I find a little suspicious.
399
00:20:09,458 --> 00:20:12,420
What's so suspicious about
a drug addict dying of an overdose?
400
00:20:12,503 --> 00:20:16,298
Ricky Strom described a guy
utterly devoted to his sobriety.
401
00:20:16,382 --> 00:20:18,342
Then a few hours later,
he's dead of an OD?
402
00:20:18,426 --> 00:20:20,511
I'm sorry, are you talking
about the lunatic
403
00:20:20,594 --> 00:20:22,680
who dressed up
like a vegetable to kidnap him?
404
00:20:22,763 --> 00:20:23,764
There were two kidnappings:
405
00:20:23,848 --> 00:20:25,975
one from the community center,
one from Ricky Strom's house.
406
00:20:26,058 --> 00:20:27,476
- Are you on drugs right now?
- Listen to me.
407
00:20:27,560 --> 00:20:29,061
Something was going on
with Holden that day.
408
00:20:29,145 --> 00:20:31,522
Something completely incidental
to whatever Ricky did.
409
00:20:31,605 --> 00:20:33,816
He clearly had no intention
of going to that support group.
410
00:20:33,899 --> 00:20:35,192
He went in one door, out the other.
411
00:20:35,276 --> 00:20:36,777
He was on the phone with somebody outside,
412
00:20:36,861 --> 00:20:39,113
- trying to figure out a place to meet.
- His dealer, R.J.
413
00:20:39,196 --> 00:20:40,823
He was calling his dealer.
414
00:20:40,906 --> 00:20:43,409
- This is a tragedy, okay? Not a mystery.
- Can you think of a better way
415
00:20:43,492 --> 00:20:46,162
to murder someone with a history
of drug abuse than a staged overdose?
416
00:20:46,245 --> 00:20:48,205
- Tell me. No, I want you to tell me.
- No. No. No more.
417
00:20:48,289 --> 00:20:51,792
These people are as mortified
by Holden's death as they are devastated.
418
00:20:51,876 --> 00:20:53,586
They want to preserve his memory.
419
00:20:53,669 --> 00:20:56,422
They want to move on.
You need to let them do both.
420
00:20:56,505 --> 00:21:00,509
Holden's phone-- You said you found it.
Give it to me. I'll give it to the family.
421
00:21:00,593 --> 00:21:03,637
I don't have it with me.
But I will drop it by your office later.
422
00:21:26,744 --> 00:21:30,456
Now, retail, brand new,
this beauty will run you 700.
423
00:21:30,539 --> 00:21:34,168
I pulled it out of a dumpster.
Sterilized every part. Rebuilt the motor.
424
00:21:34,251 --> 00:21:36,170
Now I'm letting it go to you
for 100 bucks.
425
00:21:36,253 --> 00:21:38,088
That's not for everybody.
That's 'cause we're old pals.
426
00:21:38,172 --> 00:21:39,757
Uh-huh.
427
00:21:39,840 --> 00:21:41,091
Oh, hey, speaking of old pals.
428
00:21:41,175 --> 00:21:42,927
- Hey.
- Mauricio, how are you doing, man?
429
00:21:43,010 --> 00:21:44,512
- Are you kidding me, man?
- [R.J.] Oh.
430
00:21:44,595 --> 00:21:46,889
- [strains, chuckles]
- Come on. Cell block D forever, my man.
431
00:21:46,972 --> 00:21:47,973
Saw your van out front.
432
00:21:48,057 --> 00:21:49,391
- Mauricio's Appliance Repair?
- Yeah.
433
00:21:49,475 --> 00:21:50,935
Way to turn your prison hustle
into a real business.
434
00:21:51,018 --> 00:21:52,520
Hey, I can say the same thing for you.
435
00:21:52,603 --> 00:21:54,730
Well, I-I wasn't a... wasn't a PI inside.
436
00:21:54,814 --> 00:21:56,440
You sure as hell couldn't mind
your own business.
437
00:21:57,608 --> 00:21:59,860
Reason I called,
I was hoping you could unlock this for me.
438
00:21:59,944 --> 00:22:01,946
Yeah. It's yours, right?
439
00:22:02,029 --> 00:22:03,697
Well, if it were mine,
I would know the password.
440
00:22:03,781 --> 00:22:06,367
Untrue. People forget
their passwords all the time.
441
00:22:06,450 --> 00:22:10,746
And unlocking someone's phone without
his or her explicit permission is illegal.
442
00:22:10,830 --> 00:22:12,915
It's yours, right?
443
00:22:13,791 --> 00:22:15,626
Oh, yeah, it's mine. 100% mine. All mine.
444
00:22:15,709 --> 00:22:18,379
- Great. Give me a day.
- Beautiful. Thank you.
445
00:22:19,380 --> 00:22:22,800
Now look, Wish. I could let the blender go
for 90, but after that I'm giving it away.
446
00:22:26,929 --> 00:22:29,765
Oh, move fast and tight
to the wall for outlines.
447
00:22:30,349 --> 00:22:31,350
- Rico Delaware?
- Yeah.
448
00:22:31,433 --> 00:22:33,477
Or should I call you Professor Delaware?
449
00:22:33,561 --> 00:22:35,646
I know the university made you
an artist in residence.
450
00:22:35,729 --> 00:22:39,733
Selfies gotta wait till after class, okay?
I don't like to break flow.
451
00:22:39,817 --> 00:22:42,778
I respect flow.
But, uh, I'm a private investigator.
452
00:22:42,862 --> 00:22:46,073
I'd like to ask you a few questions about
your relationship with Holden Carter.
453
00:22:46,156 --> 00:22:48,534
What's a PI care about me and him?
454
00:22:48,617 --> 00:22:52,079
A lot, actually. Mostly because
he was found dead last night.
455
00:22:57,209 --> 00:23:01,964
People like me...
People like Holden... [inhales]
456
00:23:02,047 --> 00:23:05,676
The number of times that we stick a needle
in our arm and never wake up...
457
00:23:07,136 --> 00:23:09,555
Uh, you'd think I'd be used to it
by now, but no.
458
00:23:09,638 --> 00:23:11,056
It messes me up every time.
459
00:23:13,350 --> 00:23:15,060
The reason why I wanted
to talk to you, Rico,
460
00:23:15,144 --> 00:23:17,938
I'm not sure Holden put that needle
in his arm himself.
461
00:23:18,981 --> 00:23:20,107
You think someone killed him?
462
00:23:22,026 --> 00:23:23,277
You think I killed him?
463
00:23:23,360 --> 00:23:26,155
Well, it's no secret you had a grudge
against the Carter family.
464
00:23:26,238 --> 00:23:28,949
My grudge is with Ed Carter,
the way he runs his business.
465
00:23:29,033 --> 00:23:30,993
Me and Holden, we were cool.
466
00:23:33,078 --> 00:23:35,789
A while back, Holden reached out to me.
467
00:23:35,873 --> 00:23:40,961
He wanted to meet to talk about
my experience with Carter Rehab.
468
00:23:42,338 --> 00:23:43,631
I obliged.
469
00:23:43,714 --> 00:23:48,594
Told him about recruiters pulling 5K
a head for addicts with primo insurance.
470
00:23:48,677 --> 00:23:51,472
About how the facilities
are straight-up turnstiles.
471
00:23:51,555 --> 00:23:54,266
How no one gives a crap if you get sober,
472
00:23:54,350 --> 00:23:56,310
just so long
as the insurance keeps paying.
473
00:23:58,979 --> 00:24:02,650
This one guy I knew,
he went through four rounds of that.
474
00:24:02,733 --> 00:24:05,819
The fourth time,
he OD'd right there in the clinic.
475
00:24:05,903 --> 00:24:07,279
You ever tried talking to the cops?
476
00:24:07,363 --> 00:24:11,700
Oh, yeah. You tell me when police start
listening to junkies, former or otherwise.
477
00:24:11,784 --> 00:24:14,912
And Holden? How did he take
everything you told him?
478
00:24:14,995 --> 00:24:18,457
He was upset, you know, but he said
that he'd take it all to his old man.
479
00:24:18,540 --> 00:24:21,335
- How did that conversation go?
- I don't know, all right?
480
00:24:21,418 --> 00:24:23,587
I figured I said my piece.
I gave him some space.
481
00:24:23,671 --> 00:24:26,256
Well, I happen to know
you called him 47 times the other night.
482
00:24:26,340 --> 00:24:27,716
How's that giving him space?
483
00:24:27,800 --> 00:24:30,511
Me and Holden, well, we stayed in contact.
484
00:24:30,594 --> 00:24:34,348
He wanted me to stay clean.
I wanted him to stay clean.
485
00:24:35,140 --> 00:24:37,601
The other, night all I could
think about was getting high.
486
00:24:37,685 --> 00:24:39,228
So you called Holden?
487
00:24:39,311 --> 00:24:41,981
Yeah. When I couldn't reach him,
I freaked. I kept calling.
488
00:24:43,273 --> 00:24:44,358
But then I said to myself,
489
00:24:44,441 --> 00:24:47,820
"You know what he would say?
Get your ass to a meeting." And so I did.
490
00:24:47,903 --> 00:24:51,490
My sister drove me there and back.
491
00:24:52,032 --> 00:24:54,535
This is her number if you wanna call her.
492
00:24:54,618 --> 00:24:56,370
Please, it's okay. It's okay.
493
00:24:57,079 --> 00:25:01,291
Look, as far as I've been able to tell,
Holden seemed like he was in a good place.
494
00:25:01,375 --> 00:25:03,210
But I don't know. What do you think?
495
00:25:04,420 --> 00:25:08,048
Every addict is just one bad day
away from a slip.
496
00:25:10,009 --> 00:25:14,179
But if you're right,
if someone did this to him,
497
00:25:15,222 --> 00:25:16,765
then you need to catch him.
498
00:25:17,891 --> 00:25:19,351
Because trust me,
499
00:25:20,561 --> 00:25:23,313
that is the last way
he would have wanted to go.
500
00:25:37,244 --> 00:25:38,662
[person] R.J. Decker?
501
00:25:38,746 --> 00:25:39,788
- Yeah.
- [door closes]
502
00:25:39,872 --> 00:25:44,084
Agent Jacob Koop, IRS.
Criminal Investigation Division.
503
00:25:44,126 --> 00:25:48,047
Wow. I knew I shouldn't have rounded up
my mileage on that last tax return.
504
00:25:48,130 --> 00:25:50,132
[chuckles] Actually, I wanna talk to you
505
00:25:50,215 --> 00:25:53,135
about the work you've been doing
for the, uh, Carter family.
506
00:25:53,218 --> 00:25:56,930
Well, if you know the kind of work I do,
you know I can't talk about my clients.
507
00:25:57,014 --> 00:26:00,601
I can't even confirm the people
you're talking about are my clients.
508
00:26:00,684 --> 00:26:01,935
I'll just cut to the chase then.
509
00:26:02,019 --> 00:26:05,898
See, I'm here because I don't think
Holden Carter's overdose was an accident.
510
00:26:07,024 --> 00:26:10,235
I think someone forced him
to shoot up, probably at gunpoint.
511
00:26:10,319 --> 00:26:14,823
[breathes deeply] Well, I don't think
I'll be violating confidentiality
512
00:26:14,907 --> 00:26:16,366
to tell you I've been thinking
the same thing.
513
00:26:16,450 --> 00:26:17,993
- Oh, good.
- Do you wanna come inside?
514
00:26:18,077 --> 00:26:19,161
You wanna compare notes?
515
00:26:19,244 --> 00:26:22,206
You know, I'd love to talk but not here.
Someplace public.
516
00:26:22,289 --> 00:26:24,666
- All right, you know FM Station?
- I'll find it.
517
00:26:25,250 --> 00:26:28,253
Why do we have to go somewhere public
to talk about Holden Carter?
518
00:26:29,379 --> 00:26:31,840
Well, because I think
you're the one that killed him.
519
00:26:37,262 --> 00:26:39,223
Crazy day. You accuse a guy of murder,
520
00:26:39,306 --> 00:26:41,809
he ends up introducing you
to the best burger you've had in years.
521
00:26:41,892 --> 00:26:43,602
Not that it's alleviating any suspicion.
522
00:26:43,685 --> 00:26:46,772
Yeah, I get it. Ex-con takes money
from a shady family.
523
00:26:46,855 --> 00:26:49,441
Twenty-four hours later,
that family's black sheep winds up dead.
524
00:26:49,525 --> 00:26:50,859
I'd take a look at me too.
525
00:26:50,943 --> 00:26:54,863
Coroner's report says Holden died
between 7:00 and 9:00 p.m. two nights ago.
526
00:26:54,947 --> 00:26:57,741
- Can you account for your whereabouts?
- Oh, I can.
527
00:26:57,825 --> 00:27:00,452
But first I'd like to confirm
a few of my suspicions.
528
00:27:00,536 --> 00:27:03,330
[inhales] Naomi Carter paid me
electronically this morning.
529
00:27:03,413 --> 00:27:04,998
By the afternoon,
I'm getting a visit from you.
530
00:27:05,082 --> 00:27:07,709
Which tells me the IRS is monitoring
the family's accounts.
531
00:27:07,793 --> 00:27:11,380
And since you work in criminal
investigations, ain't your standard audit.
532
00:27:12,381 --> 00:27:14,007
You've been looking into something bigger.
533
00:27:14,091 --> 00:27:16,426
Something that now
includes Holden's death.
534
00:27:17,094 --> 00:27:19,054
Well, I can neither confirm nor deny...
535
00:27:20,139 --> 00:27:23,350
is something we're required to say
when someone's got us dead to rights.
536
00:27:24,226 --> 00:27:27,229
Holden was looking into some pretty
dark corners of the family business.
537
00:27:27,312 --> 00:27:28,981
I think he was gonna have a talk
with his dad.
538
00:27:29,064 --> 00:27:30,315
I think he did, but it went poorly.
539
00:27:30,399 --> 00:27:33,068
So poorly, in fact,
his next step is reaching out to the IRS.
540
00:27:33,151 --> 00:27:35,404
Which makes me wonder
if it was you he was planning on meeting
541
00:27:35,487 --> 00:27:37,865
when he snuck out
of a support group meeting the other day.
542
00:27:39,241 --> 00:27:40,534
Well, I can neither confirm nor deny.
543
00:27:40,617 --> 00:27:44,037
Then don't confirm or deny this either:
Holden was gonna whistleblow.
544
00:27:44,121 --> 00:27:45,372
He was gonna take down Carter Rehab
545
00:27:45,455 --> 00:27:48,375
because unlike his dad, he actually cares
about addicts getting better.
546
00:27:48,458 --> 00:27:51,503
[inhales] Those whereabouts
you were gonna account for?
547
00:27:51,587 --> 00:27:54,256
Phone, computer records
prove I was home all night. What?
548
00:27:54,339 --> 00:27:56,174
It's gonna take me days
to subpoena those records.
549
00:27:56,258 --> 00:27:58,218
Okay. That's good.
It'll give us both more time to prove
550
00:27:58,302 --> 00:28:00,053
his dad was behind what happened to him.
551
00:28:01,054 --> 00:28:04,433
The premise that you killed Holden
but might be willing to roll on his dad
552
00:28:04,516 --> 00:28:07,728
was all I had left, and if that premise
is wrong, then I have nothing.
553
00:28:07,811 --> 00:28:11,273
And if I have nothing, trust me,
you've got less than nothing.
554
00:28:11,356 --> 00:28:12,649
[R.J. sighs]
555
00:28:12,733 --> 00:28:14,818
Ed Carter's gonna get away
with everything.
556
00:28:16,987 --> 00:28:18,405
[♪ "Dancing Mood" playing]
557
00:28:19,781 --> 00:28:21,867
- Someone had a crappy day.
- [sighs]
558
00:28:22,367 --> 00:28:23,744
Yeah, someone did.
559
00:28:23,827 --> 00:28:25,662
You wanna join me for a beer?
560
00:28:26,580 --> 00:28:27,581
Yes, I do.
561
00:28:30,626 --> 00:28:31,627
[Catherine clears throat]
562
00:28:34,212 --> 00:28:35,797
[breathes deeply] Thank you.
563
00:28:36,965 --> 00:28:39,885
Let me guess: Wish still unhappy
about the way you're dressing?
564
00:28:39,968 --> 00:28:41,386
Mm-hmm.
565
00:28:41,470 --> 00:28:43,680
He's the one who brought you
the new client, right?
566
00:28:43,764 --> 00:28:47,142
Mm-hmm. Judging by that second beer
you had lined up,
567
00:28:47,225 --> 00:28:49,102
I'm guessing you had a crappy day too?
568
00:28:50,437 --> 00:28:52,272
Mel and I had the money fight again.
569
00:28:53,106 --> 00:28:54,107
Oof.
570
00:28:54,191 --> 00:28:57,361
Yeah, oof. I know. I pay for stuff
when I can pay for stuff,
571
00:28:57,444 --> 00:29:00,072
and she acts like
I'm some eccentric millionaire.
572
00:29:00,948 --> 00:29:04,743
Back when you and I were together, I paid
more rent, I paid for more meals out.
573
00:29:04,826 --> 00:29:06,286
You were always okay with it.
574
00:29:10,248 --> 00:29:12,209
Wait. You weren't okay with it?
575
00:29:12,292 --> 00:29:14,795
[sighs] I mean,
it's not like I wasn't okay with it.
576
00:29:14,878 --> 00:29:17,130
It just took me
a little while to get used to.
577
00:29:17,214 --> 00:29:20,092
I like to pay my own way.
Mel does too.
578
00:29:20,175 --> 00:29:21,343
What?
579
00:29:21,426 --> 00:29:24,471
Nothing. I just found out
that I'm repeating an ugly pattern
580
00:29:24,554 --> 00:29:27,975
from my first failed marriage. No biggie.
581
00:29:28,058 --> 00:29:29,810
No, you're not repeating anything.
582
00:29:29,893 --> 00:29:33,271
Unlike me, Mel said something.
That's not repetition, that's progress.
583
00:29:33,939 --> 00:29:36,316
[sighs] But what do I do?
584
00:29:36,400 --> 00:29:39,569
Get in there. If she said something,
you say something back.
585
00:29:39,653 --> 00:29:40,737
[phone buzzes]
586
00:29:45,075 --> 00:29:47,911
- What?
- My crappy day, it ain't over yet.
587
00:29:50,664 --> 00:29:52,207
Hey. What happened?
588
00:29:52,290 --> 00:29:56,586
I was loading groceries in the van,
and some huge guy comes out of nowhere,
589
00:29:56,670 --> 00:29:59,840
coldcocks me and snatches the phone
you gave me and ran off.
590
00:29:59,923 --> 00:30:01,466
- He only took the phone?
- Yeah.
591
00:30:01,550 --> 00:30:03,802
The three of us are the only ones
that knew Mauricio had it.
592
00:30:03,885 --> 00:30:06,722
So, how would anyone know
to track him down?
593
00:30:06,805 --> 00:30:10,308
Wish, have you ever heard
of Find My Phone?
594
00:30:10,392 --> 00:30:13,645
It enables users to find their phones.
595
00:30:13,729 --> 00:30:16,648
- Yeah, but the owner's dead.
- I'm so-- He's what?
596
00:30:16,732 --> 00:30:20,777
- Did you get a look at him?
- Not really. I mean, he was white, jacked.
597
00:30:20,861 --> 00:30:23,697
Kind of like that Aryan Nation guy
who was weirdly good at kickball.
598
00:30:23,780 --> 00:30:25,282
- You remember him?
- Oh, yeah.
599
00:30:25,365 --> 00:30:28,785
- Oh. That-That's not good.
- What?
600
00:30:28,869 --> 00:30:31,371
You got a-a dent in your face. Hold on.
601
00:30:32,414 --> 00:30:35,625
Looks like a little lollipop with wings.
602
00:30:38,253 --> 00:30:41,214
That ain't a lollipop.
It's a globe from a signet ring.
603
00:30:41,298 --> 00:30:42,841
You got punched in the face by a Marine.
604
00:30:42,924 --> 00:30:44,384
You know who he is?
605
00:30:44,468 --> 00:30:45,469
Yeah, I do. [sighs]
606
00:30:45,552 --> 00:30:48,638
I'm starting to think
he's the one that killed Holden Carter.
607

- [door opens]
- [suspect] Are the cuffs really necessary?
608

- [door closes]
- You're a suspect in a violent robbery.
609
00:31:03,945 --> 00:31:06,364
Did the officers who pulled you over fail
to make that clear?
610
00:31:06,448 --> 00:31:09,785
They did. And then I made it clear
that they had the wrong guy.
611
00:31:09,868 --> 00:31:14,414
And yet they found this. Property
reported stolen by the victim in your car.
612
00:31:14,498 --> 00:31:18,919
It belonged to the late Holden Carter,
son of your employer, Ed Carter, yes?
613

[phone buzzes]
614
00:31:20,087 --> 00:31:22,255
I'm thinking you were able to track it
to the man you assaulted
615
00:31:22,339 --> 00:31:25,842
because you or Ed or one
of his other flunkies at Carter Rehab
616
00:31:25,926 --> 00:31:29,096
put spyware on the phone
that lets you see Holden's movements,
617
00:31:29,179 --> 00:31:31,223
maybe even read his emails and texts.
618
00:31:31,306 --> 00:31:32,933
- This is insane.
- [phone buzzes]
619
00:31:33,016 --> 00:31:35,519
I found that phone under a car seat today.
620
00:31:35,602 --> 00:31:39,022
Obviously, Holden left it there.
I didn't beat anyone up to get it.
621
00:31:41,316 --> 00:31:43,151
Take a look at these.
622
00:31:43,235 --> 00:31:46,738
And then take a look
at that ring of yours.
623
00:31:46,822 --> 00:31:47,906
[suspect chuckles]
624
00:31:49,157 --> 00:31:52,828
Sorry. This guy must have pissed off
a different Marine.
625
00:31:52,911 --> 00:31:55,580
How did Ed take it when he heard
Holden slipped away the other night?
626
00:31:55,664 --> 00:31:58,875
Did he already know Holden
had a meeting with the IRS?
627
00:31:59,918 --> 00:32:03,171
I'm just a driver.
I have no idea what you're talking about.
628
00:32:03,255 --> 00:32:06,049
Mmm. You could tell
from the spyware on the phone
629
00:32:06,133 --> 00:32:09,761
that Holden exited the community center
as soon as he entered it.
630
00:32:09,845 --> 00:32:11,179
I'm guessing you got to the parking lot
631
00:32:11,263 --> 00:32:15,142
just as he got into a van
with a man named Ricky Strom.
632
00:32:15,225 --> 00:32:19,104
You followed them to Mr. Strom's house,
and then you called Daddy.
633
00:32:19,187 --> 00:32:22,816
He got nervous. Thought maybe
this was Holden's IRS contact.
634
00:32:22,899 --> 00:32:25,735
So he told you it was time.
Holden had to go.
635
00:32:25,819 --> 00:32:30,282
Give up your boss.
Confess to staging Holden's OD.
636
00:32:30,365 --> 00:32:33,410
Maybe the State of Florida
won't put a needle in your arm.
637
00:32:34,744 --> 00:32:38,373
Go ahead. Charge me with this assault
if you think it'll stick.
638
00:32:38,456 --> 00:32:41,501
But if you want to talk to me again,
I'll come back with a lawyer.
639
00:32:42,377 --> 00:32:45,797
Mr. Carter will hire the best
that money can buy.

Only thing that guy said in there
that was even remotely true

What, too loud inside?
651
00:33:40,769 --> 00:33:43,396
For this conversation?
Yes, because I need you to hear me.
652
00:33:43,480 --> 00:33:45,774
I tried to do you a favor
when I brought you to Naomi.
653
00:33:45,857 --> 00:33:48,693
Now her father is threatening
to cut off ties with mine.
654
00:33:48,777 --> 00:33:50,153
That'd be bad, right?
655
00:33:50,237 --> 00:33:53,114

not keeping addicts off drugs.

What are you talking about?
657
00:33:54,282 --> 00:33:56,201
Carter Rehab doesn't want people
getting better.
658
00:33:56,284 --> 00:33:59,579
It's bad for business.
Holden was about to blow the whistle.
659
00:33:59,663 --> 00:34:01,748
If we open up the phone,
there's gonna be spyware on it
660
00:34:01,831 --> 00:34:04,000
that'll prove his dad knew
he was talking to the IRS.
661
00:34:04,084 --> 00:34:07,545
Hold on. If we open his phone?
You mean you don't know there's spyware?
662
00:34:07,629 --> 00:34:10,382
The phone's locked.
Can you think of another reason
663
00:34:10,465 --> 00:34:12,801
why Ed sent his hatchet man
to get it back yesterday? Tell me.
664
00:34:12,884 --> 00:34:16,012
Wow. I can't believe this.
I can't believe you accused Ed Carter
665
00:34:16,096 --> 00:34:19,307
of having his own son killed
without any proof.
666
00:34:19,391 --> 00:34:21,142
'Cause if there's no proof,
there's no crime, right?
667
00:34:21,226 --> 00:34:24,896
Isn't that the Ochoa family motto?
Look, Holden is dead.
668
00:34:24,980 --> 00:34:27,816
A guy that died trying to be a better man,
to fight for people who needed help.
669
00:34:27,899 --> 00:34:30,277
He was willing to go up
against his own father.
670
00:34:30,360 --> 00:34:33,113
Not because it was easy.
'Cause it was the right thing to do.
671
00:34:33,196 --> 00:34:35,949
Of course, you wouldn't care
about a guy like that.
672
00:34:36,032 --> 00:34:38,243
Next time you wanna do me a favor,
don't do it.
673
00:34:38,326 --> 00:34:40,078
I don't need business like yours.
674
00:34:48,628 --> 00:34:52,799
I have to admit I was surprised
to hear from you this morning.
675
00:34:52,882 --> 00:34:54,259
I was pretty clear with your father.
676
00:34:54,342 --> 00:34:57,429
I thought our families
needed some time apart.
677
00:34:57,512 --> 00:35:02,058
You were. But he and I both felt
we'd be remiss
678
00:35:02,142 --> 00:35:06,813
if we didn't at least try to apologize
for Mr. Decker's actions yesterday.
679
00:35:06,896 --> 00:35:09,608
Next time, we'll do a better job
vetting our referrals.
680
00:35:09,691 --> 00:35:11,526
You're assuming there'll be a next time.
681
00:35:11,610 --> 00:35:14,529
I'm well aware
we need to earn back your trust.
682
00:35:15,697 --> 00:35:17,657
That's why I-I brought you this.
683
00:35:19,784 --> 00:35:23,913
Holden's phone. My office was able
to get it back from the police.
684
00:35:23,997 --> 00:35:26,916
It wasn't too difficult,
considering there was no crime
685
00:35:27,000 --> 00:35:28,376
they could actually connect it to, but...
686
00:35:28,460 --> 00:35:30,920
And given the scrutiny
Mr. Decker was inviting,
687
00:35:31,004 --> 00:35:32,964
I thought you would value having it back.
688
00:35:40,472 --> 00:35:41,848
If there's nothing else...
689
00:35:44,768 --> 00:35:45,769
[Emi sighs]
690
00:35:47,103 --> 00:35:50,649
Yeah, actually, there is one more thing.
It was locked when we got it.
691
00:35:50,732 --> 00:35:53,193
My father and I didn't want to assume
you'd know the password.
692
00:35:53,276 --> 00:35:56,404
So we did you the favor of bringing it
to one of our communications experts.
693
00:35:56,488 --> 00:36:00,617
The intention was to give you access
to Holden's photo album.
694
00:36:00,700 --> 00:36:02,535
All those precious memories.
695
00:36:03,787 --> 00:36:05,872
But then our expert found something else.
696
00:36:06,498 --> 00:36:11,419
Someone was tracking Holden's movements
and reading his emails and text messages.
697
00:36:12,045 --> 00:36:15,757
Whoever it was,
they knew he was looking to go public
698
00:36:15,840 --> 00:36:19,511
with some very serious concerns
about treatment practices at Carter Rehab.
699
00:36:19,594 --> 00:36:23,431
If you're suggesting I had anything
to do with what happened to Holden--
700
00:36:23,515 --> 00:36:25,600
I'm not suggesting anything.
701
00:36:26,935 --> 00:36:31,606
I'm just hoping my family ends up
back in your family's good graces.
702
00:36:33,942 --> 00:36:35,819
Because a man
who would have his own son killed
703
00:36:35,902 --> 00:36:38,029
can never have too many friends, can he?
704
00:36:42,075 --> 00:36:46,121
Tell your father when the time comes,
he'll have my support.
705
00:36:51,710 --> 00:36:54,629
It's important to me that he knows,
that you both know,
706
00:36:54,713 --> 00:36:59,509
Holden wasn't supposed to die.
The plan was only to discredit him.
707
00:36:59,592 --> 00:37:03,722
To make it so the feds
couldn't take him seriously as a witness.
708
00:37:03,805 --> 00:37:05,432
So all you really wanted to do
709
00:37:05,515 --> 00:37:08,101
was throw away
all the hard work he did to get sober.
710
00:37:08,184 --> 00:37:11,938
It was a mistake. A terrible mistake.
711
00:37:13,523 --> 00:37:17,068
Naomi. Can I assume
she played no part in this?
712
00:37:17,152 --> 00:37:21,948
Of course not. She loved her brother.
I loved Holden too.
713
00:37:22,031 --> 00:37:24,367
I loved him as much
as your father loves you.
714
00:37:26,911 --> 00:37:28,246
I'm sure that's true.
