[R.J.] Previously on R.J. Decker…

00:00:02,503 --> 00:00:03,629
You beat up a kid?

3
00:00:03,712 --> 00:00:04,963
He wasn't a kid. He was 20 years old

4
00:00:05,047 --> 00:00:06,632
and, as it turns out,
the son of a state senator.

5
00:00:06,715 --> 00:00:08,634
[Ray] Those heels are gonna
put you on your ass, Em.

6
00:00:08,717 --> 00:00:10,761
-Why are you really here?
-I'm here to talk about this.

7
00:00:11,637 --> 00:00:15,557
What you're doing here, I respect it.
But is it wise?

8
00:00:15,641 --> 00:00:19,603
You have a new CRO, someone who,
with a single call from me,

9
00:00:20,354 --> 00:00:22,523
will violate you back to Apalachee.

10
00:00:22,606 --> 00:00:26,068
Accept the offer. You get sent back,
I don't believe you'll ever get out.

11
00:00:26,151 --> 00:00:28,320
Well, I think I-I realized
what I wanted to say.

12
00:00:28,403 --> 00:00:29,696
-What?
-Screw your dad.

13
00:00:31,031 --> 00:00:35,202
Lucas was sent to steal your camera.
It's time you found out why.

14
00:00:37,913 --> 00:00:38,914
[siren wailing in distance]

15
00:00:38,997 --> 00:00:41,375
[police officer 1] On Chicago Avenue,
we need a rescue team, over.

16
00:00:41,458 --> 00:00:43,168
-[police officer 2] Sir.
-Yeah?

17
00:00:43,252 --> 00:00:45,837
You mind telling me one more time
what happened here tonight?

18
00:00:45,921 --> 00:00:49,967
Yeah, I was walking to my car.
Saw the guy had broken into the trunk.

19
00:00:50,050 --> 00:00:51,843
He sees me, he takes off with my camera.

20
00:00:51,927 --> 00:00:53,637
I'm a photographer,
I can't lose my camera,

21
00:00:53,720 --> 00:00:55,305
so I chase him down.

22
00:00:55,389 --> 00:00:59,142
Caught him, he started throwing punches,
I punched back.

23
00:01:00,894 --> 00:01:01,895
I called the cops.

24
00:01:02,479 --> 00:01:07,067
Yeah, see, that's not the story
we're getting from him.

25
00:01:08,777 --> 00:01:09,778
Okay.

26
00:01:09,861 --> 00:01:12,072
Would you please turn around,
show me your hands?

27
00:01:13,198 --> 00:01:14,408

00:01:16,868 --> 00:01:19,037

-Mm-hmm.

32

34

Mel, I think you're the only one
that hasn't met Emi yet.

35
00:01:44,229 --> 00:01:46,815
Yeah, pero…
We can skip the formalities, yeah?

36
00:01:46,898 --> 00:01:49,234
You said there's things
you need to tell us.

37
00:01:49,318 --> 00:01:50,319
Let's cut to the chase.

38
00:01:50,986 --> 00:01:55,574
Uh, Emi's father, the other day
he had my CRO replaced,

39
00:01:56,325 --> 00:01:58,452
threatened to use a guy
to have me sent back to prison.

40
00:01:59,411 --> 00:02:02,331
Emi and I may know a way
to have Victor sent to prison instead.

41
00:02:04,124 --> 00:02:05,500
We're here to ask for your help.

42
00:02:11,256 --> 00:02:14,468
-[♪ suspenseful music plays]
-[R.J. sighs] Okay, y'all know the story.

43
00:02:15,052 --> 00:02:18,930
Lucas Ochoa breaks into my car.
He runs off with one of my cameras.

44
00:02:19,014 --> 00:02:22,267
I chase him down, there's a fight
followed by a-a joke of a trial

45
00:02:22,351 --> 00:02:24,394
and an 18-month prison sentence.

46
00:02:25,103 --> 00:02:27,356
That whole time, I thought
he was just some spoiled rich kid.

47
00:02:27,439 --> 00:02:29,483
That he did what he did
because he felt like doing it.

48
00:02:29,566 --> 00:02:31,234
Turns out that was wrong. [sighs]

49
00:02:32,319 --> 00:02:35,656
He was sent there that night.
By his father.

50
00:02:35,739 --> 00:02:38,700
My father thought there were pictures
on the camera's SD card

51
00:02:38,784 --> 00:02:40,869
that could prove damaging.

52
00:02:40,952 --> 00:02:43,830
Lucas was supposed to steal the camera
and destroy it.

53
00:02:43,914 --> 00:02:45,499
Well, what were the pictures of?

54
00:02:45,582 --> 00:02:46,625
[Emi] I don't know.

55
00:02:46,708 --> 00:02:49,252
I didn't find out about any of this
until things went sideways

56
00:02:49,336 --> 00:02:51,546
and Lucas ended up in the hospital.

57
00:02:51,630 --> 00:02:53,965
I dug up some of my old notes,
and according to the dates,

58
00:02:54,049 --> 00:02:57,052
the pictures had to be from my last two
assignments at the newspaper.

59
00:02:57,135 --> 00:02:59,971
One was the birth of a baby hippo
at the zoo in Miami.

60
00:03:00,055 --> 00:03:01,306
Unless Victor was the father,

61
00:03:01,390 --> 00:03:03,517
I doubt those were the pictures
he'd be worried about.

62
00:03:03,600 --> 00:03:06,687
The other more likely candidate
was a mob-style hit

63
00:03:06,770 --> 00:03:08,980
that went down in a fancy restaurant,
Il Sapore.

64
00:03:09,064 --> 00:03:11,108
I remember that.
I wrote a couple articles.

65
00:03:11,191 --> 00:03:14,778
The victim was a financial adviser,
Peter Bellwether.

66
00:03:14,861 --> 00:03:18,281
A man in a ski mask
gunned him down at his table.

67
00:03:18,365 --> 00:03:19,658
-[gunshot]
-I was the first newsperson

68
00:03:19,741 --> 00:03:22,369
on the scene that night. I got there
even before the yellow tape went up.

69
00:03:22,452 --> 00:03:24,246
Obviously, I don't remember
capturing anything

70
00:03:24,329 --> 00:03:26,540
that would have been damaging
to someone like Victor,

71
00:03:26,623 --> 00:03:30,377
but according to Emi,
there has to be a connection.

72
00:03:30,460 --> 00:03:33,213
Probably too much to hope
Daddy did the shooting himself?

73
00:03:33,296 --> 00:03:34,965
He'd never put himself at that much risk.

74
00:03:35,048 --> 00:03:37,759
But obviously you do think
murder's in his repertoire, right?

75
00:03:37,843 --> 00:03:41,596
Aside from the part he asked me to play
in R.J.'s prosecution… [stammers]

76
00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:44,599
…he's kept me siloed
from anything criminal.

77
00:03:44,683 --> 00:03:46,226
All I know for sure is that

78
00:03:46,309 --> 00:03:49,729
the possibility of R.J.'s photographs
coming to light made him very nervous.

79
00:03:50,272 --> 00:03:52,399
Hence Lucas being sent to steal my camera.

80
00:03:53,191 --> 00:03:55,569
When that didn't work,
Victor needed me on trial

81
00:03:55,652 --> 00:03:58,321
so my camera would end up
in an evidence room.

82
00:03:58,405 --> 00:04:00,907
That way, a friend of the family,
maybe a cop on the payroll

83
00:04:00,991 --> 00:04:04,453
or a crony at the DA's office
could sneak in and steal the SD card.

84
00:04:04,536 --> 00:04:06,329
In other words,
the pictures are long gone.

85
00:04:06,413 --> 00:04:10,625
Actually, they aren't.
The SD card reached me before my father.

86
00:04:10,709 --> 00:04:11,793
I told him it was destroyed,

87
00:04:11,877 --> 00:04:14,546
but the truth was
I gave it to someone to hold on to.

88
00:04:14,629 --> 00:04:17,674
I felt terrible about
what I had said at R.J.'s trial.

89
00:04:17,757 --> 00:04:21,470
I thought, I don't know,
I might need it someday.

90
00:04:22,095 --> 00:04:23,722
After this, I'm gonna go get it.

91
00:04:23,805 --> 00:04:25,640
I was hoping
you could go through your old notes

92
00:04:25,724 --> 00:04:27,601
from when you wrote about
Peter Bellwether's murder,

93
00:04:27,684 --> 00:04:29,311
see if there's anything
that didn't make the articles

94
00:04:29,394 --> 00:04:31,146
that could help us figure out
a connection to Victor.

95
00:04:31,229 --> 00:04:33,231
-Absolutely.
-You want me to go to the station,

96
00:04:33,315 --> 00:04:35,609

look for the same.

00:04:35,692 --> 00:04:37,861
If you wouldn't mind, but wait.
Uh, before you go,

98
00:04:37,944 --> 00:04:39,488
there's something you both need to know.

99
00:04:39,571 --> 00:04:41,406
It's about the break-in at the house.

100

Would you believe
that wasn't my first cabal?

103
00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:57,839
I put a little, uh, coffee and pastry
thing together a couple of weeks ago

104
00:04:57,923 --> 00:05:00,425
for a group who believed
the moon landing was real.

105

that know a few guys.

None of them traffic in murder,
but you never know.

109
00:05:11,686 --> 00:05:14,689
Maybe somebody heard something once
about that restaurant hit.

110

to your girlfriend's daddy.

get my record expunged, be done with him.
I know that.

I get sent back to Apalachee,

to not get murdered there.

two years ago.

166
00:08:14,369 --> 00:08:17,497
I had lost someone and, uh, my job.

167
00:08:19,207 --> 00:08:20,625
All the things I was seeing.

168
00:08:23,920 --> 00:08:25,380
Those are excuses.

169
00:08:25,463 --> 00:08:28,383
I'm not here for excuses.
I'm here to tell you I'm sorry.

170
00:08:29,801 --> 00:08:31,261
And I'm sorry, Lucas.

171
00:08:33,388 --> 00:08:35,515
See? That's how messed up my family is.

172
00:08:35,598 --> 00:08:40,103
I mean, you kicked my ass,
but only 'cause I tried to rob you.

173
00:08:41,146 --> 00:08:43,523
Then I lied to the cops
about what happened.

174
00:08:44,858 --> 00:08:46,192
Then I lied in court.

175
00:08:46,985 --> 00:08:49,320
But you, you're the one here to apologize.

176
00:08:49,988 --> 00:08:52,824
But here's the thing, I'm not sorry.

177
00:08:54,451 --> 00:08:57,912
What I saw in your eyes that night,
you had to go away.

178
00:08:59,706 --> 00:09:00,707
You hadn't,

179
00:09:02,333 --> 00:09:03,543
you were gonna kill somebody.

180
00:09:07,172 --> 00:09:09,549
The, uh, SD card, Lucas. I really need it.

181
00:09:14,262 --> 00:09:15,555
Before you ask,

182
00:09:15,638 --> 00:09:17,807
I never looked at what's on there.

183
00:09:18,433 --> 00:09:20,060
I didn't actually know how.

184
00:09:20,143 --> 00:09:22,187
All that ever mattered was
it was leverage against my dad

185
00:09:22,270 --> 00:09:23,730
if me or Emi ever needed it.

186
00:09:26,149 --> 00:09:27,859
Hey, be careful, okay?

187
00:09:27,942 --> 00:09:33,156
I know you beat me up and everything,
but I don't want you to, like, die.

188
00:09:33,239 --> 00:09:34,282
[chuckles]

189
00:09:35,325 --> 00:09:36,409
I appreciate that.

190
00:09:41,122 --> 00:09:44,042
[R.J.] I've been combing through these
like it's the Zapruder film.

191
00:09:44,667 --> 00:09:46,795
I don't know. All the pictures I took
were after the murder.

192
00:09:48,088 --> 00:09:50,256
Maybe your dad just convinced himself
I captured something.

193
00:09:50,340 --> 00:09:52,133
No, there has to be something.

194
00:09:53,968 --> 00:09:57,472
The other night when I told you
about Lucas and your camera,

195
00:09:57,555 --> 00:09:59,224
that it was one more thing
I kept from you.

196
00:09:59,307 --> 00:10:02,519
I mean, you could have told me
to go to hell, but you didn't.

197
00:10:06,981 --> 00:10:10,026
This thing I've been doing
the last few months, um,

198
00:10:11,152 --> 00:10:14,697
ex-cons call it reentry.

199
00:10:15,907 --> 00:10:17,826
A big part of it is forgiveness.

200
00:10:17,909 --> 00:10:21,162
Some of it's for yourself
and some of it's for others.

201
00:10:23,373 --> 00:10:27,585
I look at you. I see you trying to change.

202
00:10:28,753 --> 00:10:30,880
I see you trying to live your life
in a different way.

203
00:10:33,675 --> 00:10:34,884
And I do. I-I…

204
00:10:35,927 --> 00:10:38,054
I think you're going through
a reentry too.

205
00:10:38,847 --> 00:10:39,848
[chuckles]

206
00:10:45,270 --> 00:10:46,354
You know, it's funny.

207
00:10:46,980 --> 00:10:50,400
Before you and I met, I-I'd only ever
heard your dad was corrupt.

208
00:10:50,483 --> 00:10:52,777
But this, all this…

209
00:10:55,488 --> 00:10:58,533
makes me think he might be connected
to organized crime,

210
00:10:59,159 --> 00:11:01,369
tied to a gang, maybe even a cartel.

211
00:11:03,037 --> 00:11:05,081
It's not the first time
it occurred to you, huh?

212
00:11:06,624 --> 00:11:10,211
And yet after all the time
I've been around him,

213
00:11:10,962 --> 00:11:14,215
I don't have a single thing
we can bring to the police.

214
00:11:15,425 --> 00:11:16,426
Yeah.

215
00:11:17,135 --> 00:11:18,136
[R.J. exhales]

216
00:11:19,345 --> 00:11:20,513
It's gonna be okay.

217
00:11:21,764 --> 00:11:23,057
It's all gonna be okay.

218
00:11:26,144 --> 00:11:27,145
What?

219
00:11:30,064 --> 00:11:31,774
[chuckling] What… What are you doing?

220
00:11:31,858 --> 00:11:33,776
Just making sure Lucas didn't hit you.

221
00:11:33,860 --> 00:11:36,487
No, I told you
all we did was talk. [chuckles]

222
00:11:38,072 --> 00:11:39,115
-[phone ringing]
-Oh.

223
00:11:39,199 --> 00:11:40,241
-Yeah.
-It's…

224
00:11:41,201 --> 00:11:42,243
-Hey, Cath.
-Hey.

225
00:11:42,327 --> 00:11:44,537
I just got a call
from Edith across the street.

226
00:11:44,621 --> 00:11:46,331
She said there's something
in our driveway,

227
00:11:46,414 --> 00:11:47,874
something that couldn't possibly be there,

228
00:11:47,957 --> 00:11:50,460
'cause if it were,
my wife's head would surely explode.

229
00:11:50,543 --> 00:11:53,755
Uh, yeah, sorry, Cath. Edith is right.

230
00:11:54,714 --> 00:11:57,342
When I heard Victor had someone
burn his son's boat down,

231
00:11:57,425 --> 00:12:00,136
I didn't think it'd be wise
to keep my trailer parked in a lot

232
00:12:00,220 --> 00:12:03,598
owned and managed by Ochoa Development.

233
00:12:03,681 --> 00:12:05,266
Anyway, where are you?
I saw your car isn't here.

234
00:12:05,350 --> 00:12:08,019
I came to the station to go over
the Peter Bellwether files with Mel.

235
00:12:08,102 --> 00:12:10,730
-And?
-So far, nothing that connects to Victor.

236
00:12:10,813 --> 00:12:13,608
I did reach out to Peter's widower,
a guy named Steven Crane.

237
00:12:13,691 --> 00:12:15,735
I got to know him a little
after Peter died.

238
00:12:15,818 --> 00:12:17,403
He sat down for a couple interviews.

239
00:12:17,487 --> 00:12:19,322
He said he'd come and talk to me
one more time.

240
00:12:19,405 --> 00:12:22,325
I'll let you know if the name
Victor Ochoa means anything to him.

241
00:12:27,872 --> 00:12:31,042
You want new tires, Ray? Send me the bill.

242
00:12:31,125 --> 00:12:32,919
I can buy my own damn tires.

243
00:12:33,628 --> 00:12:35,213
I called you here
'cause the one who did this

244
00:12:35,296 --> 00:12:38,216
is the same homicide detective
whose house you had me break into.

245
00:12:38,299 --> 00:12:42,595
You were sloppy. That sketch?
Someone got a good look at you.

246
00:12:42,679 --> 00:12:45,348
That sketch had nothing to do with this.

247
00:12:45,431 --> 00:12:46,808
[♪ dramatic music plays]

248
00:12:47,850 --> 00:12:49,519
You think Emilia gave you up?

249
00:12:50,728 --> 00:12:53,356
My daughter would never turn
against her family.

250
00:12:54,482 --> 00:12:55,525
You went too far.

251
00:12:55,608 --> 00:12:58,194
Sending me to torch Lucas's boat
was a mistake.

252
00:12:58,278 --> 00:12:59,529
You're the one who was sloppy.

253
00:12:59,612 --> 00:13:01,823
-Ray…
-No, I've been taking care of things

254
00:13:01,906 --> 00:13:03,074
for you a long time now.

255
00:13:03,157 --> 00:13:04,993
It's time for you to take care of things.

256
00:13:06,160 --> 00:13:09,414
Get your damn house in order
before it's too late.

257
00:13:14,544 --> 00:13:16,963
It's so good to see you, Steven.
Thank you for coming in.

258
00:13:17,046 --> 00:13:20,967
[chuckles] Please. You were so kind
to me after Peter died.

259
00:13:21,050 --> 00:13:23,011
You wrote such wonderful things
about him.

260
00:13:23,094 --> 00:13:24,220
Really meant a lot.

261
00:13:25,263 --> 00:13:27,807
Um, but I'm a little confused.

262
00:13:27,890 --> 00:13:29,809
Uh, if you're working on
some sort of follow-up,

263
00:13:29,892 --> 00:13:32,687
why are we meeting here
instead of at The Herald?

264
00:13:32,770 --> 00:13:35,148
There's been a new development
in Peter's case,

265
00:13:35,231 --> 00:13:37,817
-or at least the possibility of one.
-Oh?

266
00:13:37,900 --> 00:13:39,986
I'll get right to the point, Mr. Crane.

267
00:13:40,069 --> 00:13:42,196
Does the name Victor Ochoa
mean anything to you?

268
00:13:42,989 --> 00:13:44,866
As in… [chuckles] As in the politician?

269
00:13:44,949 --> 00:13:48,369
We're just trying to figure out
if Peter ever did any business with him.

270
00:13:48,453 --> 00:13:52,957
I… I'm not sure.
I… [stutters] …don't think so. [chuckles]

271
00:13:53,791 --> 00:13:56,669
Are you sure Peter never crossed paths

272
00:13:56,753 --> 00:13:59,964
with Victor Ochoa
in any capacity, professional, social?

273
00:14:00,048 --> 00:14:03,176
I'm sorry, I'm suddenly not feeling well.

274
00:14:03,259 --> 00:14:06,220
Um, could we…
Could we finish this at another time?

275
00:14:06,304 --> 00:14:07,722
Steven, wait, wait.

276
00:14:07,805 --> 00:14:11,726
Do you remember the story you told me
about the panhandler on Broward Boulevard?

277
00:14:11,809 --> 00:14:13,811
The man people drove past
on their way to the beach,

278
00:14:13,895 --> 00:14:15,730
windows up, eyes forward,
like he wasn't even there?

279
00:14:15,813 --> 00:14:18,024
But Peter saw him, right?

280
00:14:18,107 --> 00:14:21,611
Pulled over one day and sat on the curb
with him, got him a job.

281
00:14:21,694 --> 00:14:23,863
You said that was who Peter was.

282
00:14:23,946 --> 00:14:28,493
Gentle, decent, incapable
of letting anyone feel invisible.

283
00:14:28,576 --> 00:14:29,619
[stammers]

284
00:14:31,454 --> 00:14:33,372
He deserved better
than what happened to him.

285
00:14:35,875 --> 00:14:37,251
You're right.

286
00:14:38,252 --> 00:14:39,420
He did deserve better.

287
00:14:42,507 --> 00:14:44,133
I'll tell you what happened.

288
00:14:46,094 --> 00:14:48,221
[phone ringing]

289
00:14:49,013 --> 00:14:51,557
Oh, hey, if Edith called
with another update, it's true.

290
00:14:51,641 --> 00:14:54,185
I did go inside the house,
but only to look for food.

291
00:14:54,268 --> 00:14:55,603
How did it go with Peter's widower?

292
00:14:55,686 --> 00:14:57,021
He gave us a name.

293
00:14:57,563 --> 00:14:59,565
-His own.
-I'm sorry, what?

294
00:14:59,649 --> 00:15:02,235
A few years ago,
he had a knee replacement,

295
00:15:02,318 --> 00:15:03,653
got hooked on opioids.

296
00:15:03,736 --> 00:15:06,489
When the prescriptions ran out,
he started buying from dealers.

297
00:15:06,572 --> 00:15:07,990
They turned him on to heroin.

298
00:15:08,074 --> 00:15:11,410
Peter found out and gave him a choice,
get clean or get out.

299
00:15:11,494 --> 00:15:12,912
I'm guessing they had a prenup?

300
00:15:12,995 --> 00:15:16,666
Steven would have been left with nothing,
so he paid their pool guy ten grand

301
00:15:16,749 --> 00:15:18,918
to shoot Peter in his favorite restaurant.

302
00:15:19,001 --> 00:15:21,879
Steven's sober now, and the guilt
over what he had done was killing him,

303
00:15:21,963 --> 00:15:23,923
so when he saw a chance
to make things right today…

304
00:15:24,006 --> 00:15:25,007
Yeah, he took it.

305
00:15:25,591 --> 00:15:27,802
Peter Bellwether's murder
is finally solved.

306
00:15:28,427 --> 00:15:30,471
Except it has nothing to do
with Victor Ochoa.

307
00:15:40,148 --> 00:15:42,275
-Coming in. Put your pants on.
-[stammers]

308
00:15:45,570 --> 00:15:47,989
I make my mom's paella
and you don't come in to mooch?

309
00:15:48,072 --> 00:15:49,490
-Sofia's worried about you.
-[chuckles]

310
00:15:51,367 --> 00:15:54,370
Yeah, I don't know. I've just…
I've been through everything.

311
00:15:55,246 --> 00:15:57,748
The scene inside the restaurant
where Peter Bellwether was killed,

312
00:15:57,832 --> 00:15:58,916
the scene outside the restaurant,

313
00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:01,085
even the fricking baby hippo
at the zoo and…

314
00:16:03,045 --> 00:16:05,673
[sighs] I thought for sure
I'd find a link to Victor, but…

315
00:16:05,756 --> 00:16:06,883
Not seeing it?

316
00:16:06,966 --> 00:16:10,469
Either he was wrong about what I captured
on my camera, or I'm wrong now.

317
00:16:11,053 --> 00:16:12,513
Unless I figure out
some kind of connection,

318
00:16:12,597 --> 00:16:13,890
this only ends one way.

319
00:16:14,765 --> 00:16:17,602
Me going back to Apalachee
and maybe for good this time.

320
00:16:18,477 --> 00:16:20,062
And I've dragged everyone I care about

321
00:16:20,146 --> 00:16:22,523
into Victor Ochoa's crosshairs
for no reason.

322
00:16:22,607 --> 00:16:23,816
Not you, R.J.

323
00:16:26,194 --> 00:16:28,654
You are such an idiot.

324
00:16:29,739 --> 00:16:34,076
My dad used to say, "Cuidate, mija.
Careful who you let get close.

325
00:16:34,160 --> 00:16:35,870
Choose wisely."

326
00:16:36,537 --> 00:16:39,749
I never would have chosen you,
but you wormed your way in anyway.

327
00:16:39,832 --> 00:16:40,833
[chuckles]

328
00:16:40,917 --> 00:16:44,128
And that makes it
not just your fight anymore.

329
00:16:44,212 --> 00:16:47,924
Cath, Wish, Emi Ochoa, me,
we're all in it.

330
00:16:48,925 --> 00:16:50,885
Something in here got you sent to prison,

331
00:16:50,968 --> 00:16:54,555
and my money says you'll find it
'cause it turns out you're…

332
00:16:56,682 --> 00:16:57,975
a pretty good investigator.

333
00:17:00,144 --> 00:17:01,771
Actually, I take that back.

334
00:17:01,854 --> 00:17:03,606
Not the part about you being good,

335
00:17:04,273 --> 00:17:07,360
the part about you finding how
these pictures connect to Victor Ochoa.

336
00:17:07,443 --> 00:17:09,904
You would have had to know
what to look for.

337
00:17:09,987 --> 00:17:11,322
-What do you mean?
-That.

338
00:17:11,864 --> 00:17:14,075
Right there? That's Ray Mercado's car.

339
00:17:14,158 --> 00:17:15,326
Are you sure?

340
00:17:15,409 --> 00:17:18,162
I should be. I stuck a knife
in those tires this morning.

341
00:17:21,249 --> 00:17:23,167
But Ray didn't kill Peter Bellwether,

342
00:17:23,251 --> 00:17:26,671
so why would Victor be so worried
about us being able to put him there?

343
00:17:27,421 --> 00:17:30,758
Maybe that murder isn't the only crime
that went down that night.

344
00:17:36,681 --> 00:17:40,476
Let me guess.
You caught the guy who slashed my tires.

345
00:17:40,560 --> 00:17:42,270
Oh, no. I'm sorry, Mr. Mercado.

346
00:17:42,353 --> 00:17:44,188
That crime remains a mystery,

347
00:17:44,272 --> 00:17:46,607
unlike the one
we asked you here to talk about.

348
00:17:47,733 --> 00:17:50,236
That's your car. Yeah?
I'll save you the trouble.

349
00:17:50,319 --> 00:17:51,862
It's definitely your car.

350
00:17:51,946 --> 00:17:56,284
This picture was taken on the evening
of March 4th, 2024, by Mr. Decker here.

351
00:17:56,367 --> 00:17:58,703
It's a pretty unremarkable photo,
isn't it?

352
00:17:58,786 --> 00:18:01,747
And yet a-a great deal of effort was made
to make sure it never came to light,

353
00:18:01,831 --> 00:18:03,624
and we think we know why.

354
00:18:03,708 --> 00:18:06,919
Mr. Decker was in the area that night
because of a murder in a restaurant,

355
00:18:07,003 --> 00:18:11,299
but you were there because of a death
in a building across the street,

356
00:18:11,382 --> 00:18:14,594
one that didn't come to light
until two days later.

357
00:18:14,677 --> 00:18:17,346
Jessica Laurent. Do you recognize her?

358
00:18:18,639 --> 00:18:20,266
She was supposed to get married
that April.

359
00:18:20,349 --> 00:18:22,393
When she didn't show up for work
on March 6th,

360
00:18:22,476 --> 00:18:25,313
her fiancé went to her apartment
and found her hanging from a rafter.

361
00:18:25,396 --> 00:18:29,525
Yeah, the ME ruled it a suicide,
but we think he got it wrong.

362
00:18:31,402 --> 00:18:34,572
You strangled her,
and you made it look like a suicide.

363
00:18:34,655 --> 00:18:35,656
Why would I do that?

364
00:18:35,740 --> 00:18:39,493
Same reason you do anything, Ray.
Victor Ochoa told you to.

365
00:18:40,119 --> 00:18:44,415
Jessica Laurent was an architect,
a damn good one, very in demand.

366

A source tells us that your boss, Victor,

367
00:18:46,876 --> 00:18:49,712
he'd been chasing her for years
to do a job with Ochoa Development.

368
00:18:49,795 --> 00:18:50,796
She kept saying no.

369

hearing the word no, does he?

Well, she would say no,

Victor wouldn't just order him to do it.

495
00:25:54,011 --> 00:25:57,222
Because two years ago,
he killed Jessica Laurent for you.

496
00:25:57,306 --> 00:25:58,515
No, that's not true.

497
00:25:59,600 --> 00:26:02,519
The pictures R.J. took that night?
The ones I told you I destroyed?

498
00:26:02,603 --> 00:26:07,357
I didn't. One of them shows Ray's car
parked across from her building.

499

[music continues]

500
00:26:22,081 --> 00:26:23,373
I appreciate you doing this, you know?

501
00:26:24,083 --> 00:26:25,084
What?

502
00:26:25,167 --> 00:26:27,711
Being an accessory to whatever this is.

503
00:26:28,545 --> 00:26:30,589
I know you don't like Emi all that much.

504
00:26:30,672 --> 00:26:32,925
Eh. She's growing on me.

505
00:26:34,676 --> 00:26:35,761
Okay.

506
00:26:40,599 --> 00:26:41,809
[beeps]

507
00:26:43,477 --> 00:26:45,395
-Uh-oh.
-Uh-oh? What's uh-oh?

508
00:26:45,479 --> 00:26:47,314
The code Emi gave me for the safe,

509
00:26:47,397 --> 00:26:49,691
Uh, she said it was her birthday,
but it's not working.

510
00:26:49,775 --> 00:26:51,443
Her dad must have changed the code.

511
00:26:51,527 --> 00:26:54,863
Mija, think. Am I a stupid man?

512
00:26:54,947 --> 00:26:57,491
What could I have possibly gained
from Jessica Laurent's death?

513
00:26:57,574 --> 00:26:59,618
What did you gain
by torching Lucas's boat?

514
00:27:01,078 --> 00:27:02,121
[scoffs]

515
00:27:02,913 --> 00:27:04,206
You're a bully.

516
00:27:04,289 --> 00:27:07,000
Bullies don't need agendas.
They need targets.

517
00:27:07,084 --> 00:27:09,253
They need to hurt people
so they can feel big.

00:27:15,300 --> 00:27:17,094
Yep, that's three attempts.

520
00:27:17,177 --> 00:27:19,012
According to the Internet,
this model of safe,

521
00:27:19,096 --> 00:27:22,057
after a fourth failed attempt,
you're locked out for an hour.

522
00:27:22,140 --> 00:27:24,560
I don't think this argument's
gonna last that long.

523
00:27:25,435 --> 00:27:27,604
Uh, hang on. I have an idea.

524
00:27:29,398 --> 00:27:30,774
I've made mistakes.

525
00:27:31,900 --> 00:27:32,943
Terrible mistakes.

526
00:27:33,026 --> 00:27:35,195
But killing Ray is not one of them.

527
00:27:35,696 --> 00:27:38,031
I'm begging you, believe me.

528
00:27:39,324 --> 00:27:40,325
Come back to me.

529
00:27:41,451 --> 00:27:44,329
Together, I promise,
we can fix all of this.

530
00:27:44,955 --> 00:27:46,373
I… [stammers] …I can't come back.

531
00:27:47,624 --> 00:27:48,750
It's too late.

532
00:27:48,834 --> 00:27:50,919
You and your friend,

533
00:27:51,628 --> 00:27:53,922
you want me out of office,
maybe even in prison.

534
00:27:55,048 --> 00:27:57,593
But it would be a mistake
because you're right.

535
00:27:58,594 --> 00:28:02,431
I do have dangerous friends,
more than you can even understand,

536
00:28:02,514 --> 00:28:05,642
but I maintain those relationships
for the good of the city,

537
00:28:05,726 --> 00:28:07,561
for the good of the state.

538
00:28:07,644 --> 00:28:12,983
I do what I have to do
to keep the peace, to save lives.

-Just try it. 0-8-0-7-5-8.

from Emi's birthday to his own.

Nice thing about malignant narcissists,

545
00:28:35,839 --> 00:28:37,758
their self-obsession
can make them predictable.

546
00:28:38,425 --> 00:28:42,262
You stay this course,
I won't try to stop you…

547
00:28:44,139 --> 00:28:47,267
but there may come a time
when I can no longer protect you.

548
00:28:50,979 --> 00:28:54,441
These past few years,
you hiding things from me,

549
00:28:54,524 --> 00:28:58,236
asking me to perjure myself,
to send a good man to prison?

550
00:28:58,320 --> 00:29:02,866
If that was you protecting me… [stammers]

Hey, we have the thumb drive.
We're headed to you.

Turn around, go someplace else.

555
00:29:17,464 --> 00:29:18,465
Why? What's going on?

556
00:29:18,548 --> 00:29:20,801
Couple of cops
were just here looking for you.

557
00:29:20,884 --> 00:29:21,885
What?

558
00:29:21,969 --> 00:29:23,679
Seems old Victor
finally made good on his threat.

559
00:29:23,762 --> 00:29:28,058
Your new CRO, he had you violated.
There's a warrant out for your arrest.

I'm just, um, checking in on you,

Yeah, I'm good, thanks.

if I want to go on the run?

I'll answer that question
with another question.

How many times you want to go to prison

you weren't gonna show. Did you get it?

Good strange or bad strange?

585
00:31:09,451 --> 00:31:12,913
Every single file here
is the work of Jessica Laurent.

586
00:31:12,996 --> 00:31:15,624
Blueprints, floor plans, elevations,

587
00:31:15,707 --> 00:31:17,709
all from the same building downtown,
Seabright Tower.

588
00:31:17,793 --> 00:31:20,087
-Yeah?
-She designed the place a few years ago.

589
00:31:20,170 --> 00:31:21,171
But I'm confused.

590
00:31:21,254 --> 00:31:23,340
I thought you said she didn't do any work
with Ochoa Development.

591
00:31:23,423 --> 00:31:26,134
She didn't. Seabright Tower
is one of Bruce's buildings.

592
00:31:26,218 --> 00:31:28,470
He's the guy I went to see the other day,
the investor.

593
00:31:28,553 --> 00:31:30,055
He worked with Jessica all the time.

594
00:31:30,764 --> 00:31:33,058
But if Seabright Tower
isn't one of your dad's projects,

595
00:31:33,141 --> 00:31:35,268
why the hell is this thumb drive
in his safe?

596
00:31:35,352 --> 00:31:37,270
It had to have come from Ray.

597
00:31:37,354 --> 00:31:39,064
He must have taken it
the night he killed her.

598
00:31:39,898 --> 00:31:42,734
If he didn't, he wouldn't have known
to tell Wish about it.

599
00:31:42,818 --> 00:31:44,152
Ray didn't have access to the safe.

600
00:31:44,236 --> 00:31:46,822
Right, so, what, two years ago,
your dad sent Ray to steal it?

601
00:31:47,614 --> 00:31:51,201
Maybe there was some design element
he was trying to rip off?

602
00:31:51,910 --> 00:31:55,163
[sighs] But I don't know,
for someone like Jessica Laurent,

603
00:31:55,247 --> 00:31:57,958
Seabright Tower was borderline mundane.

604
00:31:58,041 --> 00:32:01,086
High-end, luxurious,
but more substance than style.

605
00:32:02,671 --> 00:32:04,881
So, in other words,
after all that work this morning,

606
00:32:04,965 --> 00:32:06,925
the only thing
we might be able to hang on your dad

607
00:32:07,008 --> 00:32:08,176
is intellectual property theft.

608
00:32:08,260 --> 00:32:11,138
It's okay. We'll figure it out.

609
00:32:13,306 --> 00:32:15,684
Yeah, well, we sort of need
to figure it out by 5:00 p.m.

610
00:32:16,476 --> 00:32:18,436
That's when I'm due
to turn myself in to the police.

What?

612
00:32:20,272 --> 00:32:23,733
Yeah, your dad, he did what he said
he was gonna do. He got me violated.

She's gonna meet me at 5:00.

Any luck, she and my attorney
will straighten out

00:32:36,037 --> 00:32:37,914
this little misunderstanding with the CRO.

618
00:32:37,998 --> 00:32:38,999
I could be out by morning.

619
00:32:39,082 --> 00:32:41,376

isn't gonna let that happen.

I-I don't know. It's this file.

624
00:32:53,263 --> 00:32:54,681
I mean, if this is what I think it is,

625
00:32:54,764 --> 00:32:57,684
your dad might not have been the one
to want Jessica Laurent dead after all.

626
00:32:59,519 --> 00:33:02,022
That's okay. It's maybe even good
because if I'm right,

can give us your dad on a platter.

00:33:14,868 --> 00:33:17,829
Uh, I do. Just spoke yesterday,
as a matter of fact.

00:33:18,788 --> 00:33:20,957
I assume you're here
for the same reason I am?

Background on Jessica?

Oh, Miss Ochoa's already done her part.

634
00:33:23,877 --> 00:33:27,297
She's been very helpful,
but we still have some questions.

635
00:33:27,380 --> 00:33:29,466
As I believe you know,
we've been circling the possibility

636
00:33:29,549 --> 00:33:32,719
that Jessica was killed by a man
named Ray Mercado.

637
00:33:33,678 --> 00:33:36,890
That's his car parked across
from her apartment the night she died.

638
00:33:37,390 --> 00:33:39,309
It's very troubling.

639
00:33:39,893 --> 00:33:42,646
You mean seeing his car there,
or seeing yours?

640
00:33:43,980 --> 00:33:47,859
Made us wonder, did Ray kill Jessica,
or did he just handle the cleanup?

641
00:33:49,236 --> 00:33:52,322
Uh, I… I don't understand.
What, are you suggesting I…

642
00:33:53,740 --> 00:33:54,824
I would never.

643
00:33:55,450 --> 00:33:57,827
She and I worked together. That's why
I would have been there that night.

644
00:33:57,911 --> 00:33:58,912
[Mel] Hmm.

645
00:33:58,995 --> 00:34:01,873
I told Detective Abreu that
Jessica designed Seabright Tower for you.

646
00:34:01,957 --> 00:34:03,583
-Yeah.

Seabright Tower was leveraged
to the hilt. It had to be on time.

Financing these things, it can be risky.

of your buildings can't be.

it's a standard stress test.

It shows how a building
will stand up to wind shear.
