00:00:01,201 --> 00:00:02,336
<i>Previously on</i> R.J. Decker

2
00:00:02,469 --> 00:00:03,538
You beat up a kid?

3
00:00:03,671 --> 00:00:04,906
He wasn't a kid.
He was 20 years old

4
00:00:05,038 --> 00:00:06,541
and, as it turns out,
the son of a state senator.

5
00:00:06,674 --> 00:00:08,543
Those heels are gonna
put you on your ass, Em.

6
00:00:08,676 --> 00:00:10,745
-Why are you really here?
-I'm here to talk about this.

7
00:00:11,613 --> 00:00:15,482
What you're doing here,
I respect it. But is it wise?

8
00:00:15,617 --> 00:00:19,621
You have a new CRO,
someone who,
with a single call from me,

9
00:00:20,320 --> 00:00:22,456
will violate you
back to Apalachee.

10
00:00:22,590 --> 00:00:24,024
Accept the offer.

11
00:00:24,157 --> 00:00:25,994
You get sent back,
I don't believe
you'll ever get out.

12
00:00:26,126 --> 00:00:28,228
Well, I think I-I realized
what I wanted to say.

13
00:00:28,362 --> 00:00:29,697
-What?
-Screw your dad.

14
00:00:30,999 --> 00:00:35,202
Lucas was sent
to steal your camera.
It's time you found out why.

15
00:00:39,741 --> 00:00:41,275
<i>On Chicago Avenue,</i>
<i>we need a rescue team, over.</i>

16
00:00:41,408 --> 00:00:43,076
- Sir.
- Yeah?

17
00:00:43,210 --> 00:00:45,747
You mind telling me
one more time
what happened here tonight?

18
00:00:45,880 --> 00:00:49,884
Yeah, I was walking to my car.
Saw the guy had
broken into the trunk.

19
00:00:50,018 --> 00:00:51,786
He sees me,
he takes off with my camera.

20
00:00:51,920 --> 00:00:53,555
I'm a photographer,
I can't lose my camera,

21
00:00:53,688 --> 00:00:55,222
so I chase him down.

22
00:00:55,355 --> 00:00:59,126
Caught him,
he started throwing punches,
I punched back.

23
00:01:00,862 --> 00:01:01,896
I called the cops.

24
00:01:02,429 --> 00:01:07,067
Yeah, see, that's not the story
we're getting from him.

25
00:01:08,736 --> 00:01:09,971
Okay.

26
00:01:10,103 --> 00:01:12,072
Would you please turn around,
show me your hands?

27
00:01:16,844 --> 00:01:19,047
Hey, R.J.

28
00:01:20,748 --> 00:01:22,282
-You okay?
-Mm-hmm.

29
00:01:25,085 --> 00:01:26,688
You sure this is
the right next move?

30
00:01:27,421 --> 00:01:29,456
It's the only next move.

31
00:01:38,332 --> 00:01:39,767
I appreciate
all of you being here.

32
00:01:41,836 --> 00:01:44,072
Mel,
I think you're the only one
that hasn't met Emi yet.

33
00:01:44,204 --> 00:01:46,741
Yeah, <i>pero</i>
We can skip the formalities,
yeah?

34
00:01:46,874 --> 00:01:49,142
You said there's things
you need to tell us.

35
00:01:49,276 --> 00:01:50,277
Let's cut to the chase.

36
00:01:50,945 --> 00:01:55,550
Uh, Emi's father, the other day
he had my CRO replaced,

37
00:01:56,283 --> 00:01:58,418
threatened to use a guy
to have me sent back to prison.

38
00:01:59,386 --> 00:02:02,322
Emi and I may know a way
to have Victor sent
to prison instead.

39
00:02:04,092 --> 00:02:05,492
We're here to ask
for your help.

40
00:02:11,231 --> 00:02:14,468
Okay, y'all know the story.

41
00:02:15,003 --> 00:02:18,840
Lucas Ochoa breaks into my car.
He runs off
with one of my cameras.

42
00:02:18,973 --> 00:02:22,175
I chase him down,
there's a fight
followed by a-a joke of a trial

43
00:02:22,309 --> 00:02:24,344
and an 18-month
prison sentence.

44
00:02:25,079 --> 00:02:27,280
That whole time,
I thought he was
just some spoiled rich kid.

45
00:02:27,414 --> 00:02:29,416
That he did what he did
because he felt like doing it.

46
00:02:29,550 --> 00:02:31,251
Turns out that was wrong.

47
00:02:32,319 --> 00:02:35,590
He was sent there that night.
By his father.

48
00:02:35,723 --> 00:02:38,626
My father thought
there were pictures
on the camera's SD card

49
00:02:38,760 --> 00:02:40,795
that could prove damaging.

50
00:02:40,928 --> 00:02:43,731
Lucas was supposed to
steal the camera
and destroy it.

51
00:02:43,865 --> 00:02:45,432
Well,
what were the pictures of?

52
00:02:45,566 --> 00:02:47,001
I don't know.

53
00:02:47,135 --> 00:02:49,169
I didn't find out
about any of this
until things went sideways

54
00:02:49,302 --> 00:02:51,471
and Lucas ended up
in the hospital.

55
00:02:51,606 --> 00:02:53,875
I dug up some of my old notes,
and according to the dates,

56
00:02:54,008 --> 00:02:56,978
the pictures had to be
from my last two assignments
at the newspaper.

57
00:02:57,111 --> 00:02:59,881
One was the birth
of a baby hippo
at the zoo in Miami.

58
00:03:00,014 --> 00:03:01,314
Unless Victor was the father,

59
00:03:01,448 --> 00:03:03,417
I doubt those were the pictures
he'd be worried about.

60
00:03:03,551 --> 00:03:06,621
The other more likely candidate
was a mob-style hit

61
00:03:06,754 --> 00:03:08,890
that went down
in a fancy restaurant,
Il Sapore.

62
00:03:09,023 --> 00:03:11,025
I remember that.
I wrote a couple articles.

63
00:03:11,159 --> 00:03:14,696
<i>The victim was</i>
<i>a financial adviser,</i>
<i>Peter Bellwether.</i>

64
00:03:14,829 --> 00:03:18,198
<i>A man in a ski mask</i>
<i>gunned him down at his table.</i>

65
00:03:18,331 --> 00:03:19,934
I was the first newsperson

66
00:03:20,068 --> 00:03:22,302
on the scene that night.
I got there even before
the yellow tape went up.

67
00:03:22,436 --> 00:03:24,172
Obviously, I don't remember
capturing anything

68
00:03:24,304 --> 00:03:26,440
that would have been damaging
to someone like Victor,

69
00:03:26,574 --> 00:03:30,277
but according to Emi,
there has to be a connection.

70
00:03:30,410 --> 00:03:33,114
Probably too much to hope
Daddy did the shooting himself?

71
00:03:33,246 --> 00:03:34,882
He'd never put himself
at that much risk.

72
00:03:35,016 --> 00:03:37,719
But obviously you do think
murder's in his repertoire,
right?

73
00:03:37,852 --> 00:03:41,522
Aside from the part
he asked me to play in
R.J.'s prosecution

74
00:03:41,656 --> 00:03:44,525
he's kept me siloed
from anything criminal.

75
00:03:44,659 --> 00:03:46,393
All I know for sure is that

76
00:03:46,527 --> 00:03:49,697
the possibility of R.J.'s
photographs coming to light
made him very nervous.

77
00:03:50,230 --> 00:03:52,399
Hence Lucas being sent
to steal my camera.

78
00:03:53,167 --> 00:03:55,503
When that didn't work,
Victor needed me on trial

79
00:03:55,636 --> 00:03:58,238
so my camera would end up
in an evidence room.

80
00:03:58,371 --> 00:04:00,842
That way,
a friend of the family,
maybe a cop on the payroll

81
00:04:00,975 --> 00:04:04,377
or a crony at the DA's office
could sneak in
and steal the SD card.

82
00:04:04,512 --> 00:04:06,246
In other words,
the pictures are long gone.

83
00:04:06,379 --> 00:04:10,551
Actually, they aren't.
The SD card reached me
before my father.

84
00:04:10,685 --> 00:04:12,053
I told him it was destroyed,

85
00:04:12,186 --> 00:04:14,454
but the truth was
I gave it to someone
to hold on to.

86
00:04:14,589 --> 00:04:17,592
I felt terrible about
what I had said
at R.J.'s trial.

87
00:04:17,725 --> 00:04:21,461
I thought, I don't know,
I might need it someday.

88
00:04:22,063 --> 00:04:23,631
After this,
I'm gonna go get it.

89
00:04:23,765 --> 00:04:25,566
I was hoping
you could go through
your old notes

90
00:04:25,700 --> 00:04:27,535
from when you wrote about
Peter Bellwether's murder,

91
00:04:27,668 --> 00:04:29,237
see if there's anything
that didn't make the articles

92
00:04:29,369 --> 00:04:31,072
that could help us figure out
a connection to Victor.

93
00:04:31,205 --> 00:04:33,141
-Absolutely.
-You want me
to go to the station,

94
00:04:33,273 --> 00:04:35,543
go through the old case files,
look for the same.

95
00:04:35,676 --> 00:04:37,779
If you wouldn't mind, but wait.
Uh, before you go,

96
00:04:37,912 --> 00:04:39,412
there's something
you both need to know.

97
00:04:39,547 --> 00:04:41,414
It's about the break-in
at the house.

98
00:04:47,688 --> 00:04:49,056
Hey.

99
00:04:49,190 --> 00:04:50,758
I just want to say
thanks for hosting.
I appreciate it.

100
00:04:50,892 --> 00:04:52,994
Would you believe
that wasn't my first cabal?

101
00:04:53,928 --> 00:04:57,765
I put a little, uh,
coffee and pastry thing
together a couple of weeks ago

102
00:04:57,899 --> 00:05:00,333
for a group who believed
the moon landing was real.

103
00:05:00,467 --> 00:05:02,904
Just wasn't our moon.

104
00:05:03,738 --> 00:05:05,640
What are you doing?
What is this? Address books?

105
00:05:05,773 --> 00:05:08,509
I still know a few guys
that know a few guys.

106
00:05:08,643 --> 00:05:11,512
None of them traffic in murder,
but you never know.

107
00:05:11,646 --> 00:05:14,682
Maybe somebody heard
something once
about that restaurant hit.

108
00:05:15,216 --> 00:05:17,718
Maybe they know how it connects
to your girlfriend's daddy.

109
00:05:17,852 --> 00:05:19,187
She's not my

110
00:05:21,556 --> 00:05:23,658
I know you think
I should just accept his offer,

111
00:05:24,592 --> 00:05:27,161
get my record expunged,
be done with him. I know that.

112
00:05:27,295 --> 00:05:30,698
Look, I wanted to promise you,
I get sent back to Apalachee,

113
00:05:30,832 --> 00:05:33,668
I will do my absolute best
to not get murdered there.

114
00:05:33,801 --> 00:05:36,504
There ain't a snowball's chance
you get murdered there.

115
00:05:37,672 --> 00:05:39,372
'Cause you go back, I go back.

116
00:05:40,107 --> 00:05:43,476
I'll punch Victor Ochoa
in his big dumb face
or something.

117
00:05:43,611 --> 00:05:45,646
I'll make sure I'm around
to watch your back again.

118
00:05:46,781 --> 00:05:52,086
Hey, you never, uh, told us
where your not-a-girlfriend
stashed the SD card.

119
00:05:53,754 --> 00:05:54,856
You need help getting it?

120
00:05:54,989 --> 00:05:58,826
Actually, it's something
I gotta do on my own.

121
00:06:04,198 --> 00:06:05,766
Hey.

122
00:06:05,900 --> 00:06:08,135
How's the return trip
to the murder
of Peter Bellwether going?

123
00:06:08,269 --> 00:06:11,438
Poorly. I mean,
he was by all accounts
well-liked.

124
00:06:11,572 --> 00:06:13,074
<i>But?</i>

125
00:06:13,207 --> 00:06:15,276
He was a finance guy.
He could've been in bed
with anyone.

126
00:06:15,408 --> 00:06:17,678
A cartel, an oligarch

127
00:06:17,812 --> 00:06:19,313
A certain
Florida state senator?

128
00:06:19,446 --> 00:06:22,449
If he was working
with Victor Ochoa,
so far, I'm not seeing it.

129
00:06:22,583 --> 00:06:23,818
How's it going at the station?

130
00:06:23,951 --> 00:06:26,921
Got a little sidetracked,
but I'll be there soon.

131
00:06:27,054 --> 00:06:29,056
- I'll let you know if I find anything.
-  -<i>Okay.</i>

132
00:06:37,298 --> 00:06:38,599
That sucks.

133
00:06:38,733 --> 00:06:40,768
Detective Mel Abreu.

134
00:06:40,902 --> 00:06:44,038
I was just driving by
when I thought I saw
a guy messing with your car.

135
00:06:45,006 --> 00:06:47,375
-He must have taken off
running.
-Yeah, I guess so.

136
00:06:47,508 --> 00:06:48,676
Would you like to file
a report?

137
00:06:48,809 --> 00:06:49,977
No, I'm okay.

138
00:06:53,614 --> 00:06:55,750
Evidence. I'll run some tests.

139
00:06:56,350 --> 00:06:58,719
You never know
what might tie somebody
to a crime.

140
00:06:59,820 --> 00:07:00,821
Have we met before?

141
00:07:02,189 --> 00:07:04,125
You look so familiar.

142
00:07:04,258 --> 00:07:05,826
Just have one of those faces.

143
00:07:07,395 --> 00:07:08,596
-Yeah.
-Hmm.

144
00:07:21,709 --> 00:07:22,877
Hey, how's it going?

145
00:07:23,878 --> 00:07:26,446
I'm about to have
a conversation
with one of your patrons.

146
00:07:27,248 --> 00:07:29,449
It's possible
he might throw a few punches.

147
00:07:30,051 --> 00:07:32,420
This is for you
to not call the cops

148
00:07:32,553 --> 00:07:33,587
until at least
three of them land,

149
00:07:33,721 --> 00:07:35,656
or two, you know,
if they're good ones.

150
00:07:41,796 --> 00:07:42,830
Lucas.

151
00:07:44,598 --> 00:07:45,566
Hey.

152
00:07:48,402 --> 00:07:50,905
Emi sent me, okay?
I need to get something
from you.

153
00:07:52,239 --> 00:07:54,508
First, I thought it was time
we talked.

154
00:08:01,749 --> 00:08:03,483
Emi wanted to come get
the SD card,

155
00:08:03,617 --> 00:08:05,453
but I told her no,
I had to do it.

156
00:08:06,387 --> 00:08:09,190
'Cause I've owed you an apology
for a long time, Lucas.

157
00:08:10,324 --> 00:08:12,560
Yeah,
I was going through something
two years ago.

158
00:08:14,328 --> 00:08:17,497
I had lost someone
and, uh, my job.

159
00:08:19,166 --> 00:08:20,634
All the things I was seeing.

160
00:08:23,871 --> 00:08:25,306
Those are excuses.

161
00:08:25,439 --> 00:08:28,376
I'm not here for excuses.
I'm here to tell you I'm sorry.

162
00:08:29,777 --> 00:08:31,245
And I'm sorry, Lucas.

163
00:08:33,347 --> 00:08:35,416
See? That's how messed up
my family is.

164
00:08:35,549 --> 00:08:40,121
I mean, you kicked my ass,
but only 'cause
I tried to rob you.

165
00:08:41,122 --> 00:08:43,524
Then I lied to the cops
about what happened.

166
00:08:44,825 --> 00:08:46,193
Then I lied in court.

167
00:08:46,961 --> 00:08:49,330
But you, you're the one here
to apologize.

168
00:08:49,964 --> 00:08:52,833
But here's the thing,
I'm not sorry.

169
00:08:54,435 --> 00:08:57,905
What I saw in your eyes
that night, you had to go away.

170
00:08:59,673 --> 00:09:00,708
You hadn't,

171
00:09:02,309 --> 00:09:03,544
you were gonna kill somebody.

172
00:09:07,148 --> 00:09:09,550
The, uh, SD card, Lucas.
I really need it.

173
00:09:14,221 --> 00:09:15,456
Before you ask,

174
00:09:15,589 --> 00:09:17,825
I never looked
at what's on there.

175
00:09:18,392 --> 00:09:19,994
I didn't actually know how.

176
00:09:20,127 --> 00:09:22,096
All that ever mattered was
it was leverage against my dad

177
00:09:22,229 --> 00:09:23,731
if me or Emi ever needed it.

178
00:09:26,133 --> 00:09:27,768
Hey, be careful, okay?

179
00:09:27,902 --> 00:09:30,438
I know you beat me up
and everything,

180
00:09:30,571 --> 00:09:33,074
but I don't want you
to, like, die.

181
00:09:35,309 --> 00:09:36,410
I appreciate that.

182
00:09:41,082 --> 00:09:44,051
I've been combing through these
like it's the Zapruder film.

183
00:09:44,652 --> 00:09:46,787
I don't know.
All the pictures I took
were after the murder.

184
00:09:48,055 --> 00:09:50,191
Maybe your dad
just convinced himself
I captured something.

185
00:09:50,324 --> 00:09:52,126
No, there has to be something.

186
00:09:53,928 --> 00:09:57,398
The other night when I told you
about Lucas and your camera,

187
00:09:57,532 --> 00:09:59,133
that it was one more thing
I kept from you.

188
00:09:59,266 --> 00:10:02,504
I mean, you could have told me
to go to hell, but you didn't.

189
00:10:06,941 --> 00:10:10,010
This thing I've been doing
the last few months, um,

190
00:10:11,112 --> 00:10:14,715
ex-cons call it reentry.

191
00:10:15,883 --> 00:10:17,751
A big part of it
is forgiveness.

192
00:10:17,885 --> 00:10:21,155
Some of it's for yourself
and some of it's for others.

193
00:10:23,324 --> 00:10:27,596
I look at you.
I see you trying to change.

194
00:10:28,729 --> 00:10:30,898
I see you trying
to live your life
in a different way.

195
00:10:33,634 --> 00:10:34,869
And I do. I-I

196
00:10:35,903 --> 00:10:38,072
I think you're going through
a reentry too.

197
00:10:45,246 --> 00:10:46,413
You know, it's funny.

198
00:10:47,014 --> 00:10:50,317
Before you and I met,
I-I'd only ever
heard your dad was corrupt.

199
00:10:50,451 --> 00:10:52,786
But this, all this

200
00:10:55,456 --> 00:10:58,527
makes me think
he might be connected
to organized crime,

201
00:10:59,126 --> 00:11:01,362
tied to a gang,
maybe even a cartel.

202
00:11:02,997 --> 00:11:05,065
It's not the first time
it occurred to you, huh?

203
00:11:06,601 --> 00:11:10,204
And yet after all the time
I've been around him,

204
00:11:10,938 --> 00:11:14,208
I don't have a single thing
we can bring to the police.

205
00:11:15,409 --> 00:11:16,443
Yeah.

206
00:11:19,313 --> 00:11:20,515
It's gonna be okay.

207
00:11:21,715 --> 00:11:23,050
It's all gonna be okay.

208
00:11:26,120 --> 00:11:27,154
What?

209
00:11:30,024 --> 00:11:31,692
What What are you doing?

210
00:11:31,825 --> 00:11:33,694
Just making sure
Lucas didn't hit you.

211
00:11:33,827 --> 00:11:36,497
No, I told you
all we did was talk.

212
00:11:38,032 --> 00:11:39,033
Oh.

213
00:11:39,166 --> 00:11:40,234
-Yeah.
-It's

214
00:11:41,168 --> 00:11:42,303
-Hey, Cath.
- <i>Hey.</i>

215
00:11:42,436 --> 00:11:44,438
I just got a call
from Edith across the street.

216
00:11:44,573 --> 00:11:46,240
She said there's something
in our driveway,

217
00:11:46,373 --> 00:11:47,808
something that
couldn't possibly be there,

218
00:11:47,942 --> 00:11:50,377
'cause if it were,
my wife's head
would surely explode.

219
00:11:50,512 --> 00:11:53,747
Uh, yeah, sorry, Cath.
Edith is right.

220
00:11:54,683 --> 00:11:57,251
When I heard Victor had someone
burn his son's boat down,

221
00:11:57,384 --> 00:12:00,054
I didn't think it'd be wise
to keep my trailer parked
in a lot

222
00:12:00,187 --> 00:12:03,525
owned and managed
by Ochoa Development.

223
00:12:03,658 --> 00:12:05,259
Anyway, where are you?
I saw your car isn't here.

224
00:12:05,392 --> 00:12:07,928
I came to the station to
go over the Peter Bellwether
files with Mel.

225
00:12:08,062 --> 00:12:10,665
-And?
-So far, nothing that connects
to Victor.

226
00:12:10,798 --> 00:12:13,535
I did reach out
to Peter's widower,
a guy named Steven Crane.

227
00:12:13,668 --> 00:12:15,637
<i>I got to know him a little</i>
<i>after Peter died.</i>

228
00:12:15,769 --> 00:12:17,338
<i>He sat down for</i>
<i>a couple interviews.</i>

229
00:12:17,471 --> 00:12:19,240
He said he'd come
and talk to me one more time.

230
00:12:19,373 --> 00:12:22,309
<i>I'll let you know if the name</i>
<i>Victor Ochoa means anything</i>
<i>to him.</i>

231
00:12:27,848 --> 00:12:30,951
You want new tires, Ray?
Send me the bill.

232
00:12:31,085 --> 00:12:32,920
I can buy my own damn tires.

233
00:12:33,588 --> 00:12:35,189
I called you here
'cause the one who did this

234
00:12:35,322 --> 00:12:38,125
is the same homicide detective
whose house you had me
break into.

235
00:12:38,259 --> 00:12:42,530
You were sloppy. That sketch?
Someone got a good look at you.

236
00:12:42,664 --> 00:12:45,266
That sketch
had nothing to do with this.

237
00:12:47,835 --> 00:12:49,504
You think Emilia gave you up?

238
00:12:50,705 --> 00:12:53,340
My daughter would never turn
against her family.

239
00:12:54,441 --> 00:12:55,644
You went too far.

240
00:12:55,776 --> 00:12:58,112
Sending me to torch
Lucas's boat was a mistake.

241
00:12:58,245 --> 00:12:59,446
You're the one who was sloppy.

242
00:12:59,581 --> 00:13:01,750
-Ray
-No, I've been
taking care of things

243
00:13:01,882 --> 00:13:02,983
for you a long time now.

244
00:13:03,117 --> 00:13:04,952
It's time for you
to take care of things.

245
00:13:06,153 --> 00:13:09,423
Get your damn house in order
before it's too late.

246
00:13:14,529 --> 00:13:16,864
It's so good to see you,
Steven.
Thank you for coming in.

247
00:13:16,997 --> 00:13:20,901
Please.
You were so kind
to me after Peter died.

248
00:13:21,035 --> 00:13:22,936
You wrote such wonderful things
about him.

249
00:13:23,070 --> 00:13:24,204
Really meant a lot.

250
00:13:25,239 --> 00:13:27,742
Um, but I'm a little confused.

251
00:13:27,875 --> 00:13:29,744
Uh, if you're working on
some sort of follow-up,

252
00:13:29,877 --> 00:13:32,614
why are we meeting here
instead of at <i>The Herald?</i>

253
00:13:32,747 --> 00:13:35,082
There's been a new development
in Peter's case,

254
00:13:35,215 --> 00:13:37,752
-or at least
the possibility of one.
-Oh?

255
00:13:37,885 --> 00:13:39,920
I'll get right to the point,
Mr. Crane.

256
00:13:40,054 --> 00:13:42,189
Does the name Victor Ochoa
mean anything to you?

257
00:13:42,956 --> 00:13:44,793
As in
As in the politician?

258
00:13:44,925 --> 00:13:48,295
We're just trying to figure out
if Peter ever did any business
with him.

259
00:13:48,429 --> 00:13:52,966
- I I'm not sure.
- I don't think so.

260
00:13:53,768 --> 00:13:56,571
Are you sure
Peter never crossed paths

261
00:13:56,705 --> 00:13:59,873
with Victor Ochoa
in any capacity,
professional, social?

262
00:14:00,007 --> 00:14:03,077
I'm sorry,
I'm suddenly not feeling well.

263
00:14:03,210 --> 00:14:06,146
Um, could we
Could we finish this
at another time?

264
00:14:06,280 --> 00:14:08,148
Steven, wait, wait.

265
00:14:08,282 --> 00:14:11,653
Do you remember the story you
told me about the panhandler
on Broward Boulevard?

266
00:14:11,786 --> 00:14:13,722
The man people drove past
on their way to the beach,

267
00:14:13,854 --> 00:14:15,657
windows up, eyes forward,
like he wasn't even there?

268
00:14:15,790 --> 00:14:17,925
But Peter saw him, right?

269
00:14:18,058 --> 00:14:21,529
Pulled over one day
and sat on the curb
with him, got him a job.

270
00:14:21,663 --> 00:14:23,798
You said that was
who Peter was.

271
00:14:23,931 --> 00:14:28,402
Gentle, decent, incapable
of letting anyone
feel invisible.

272
00:14:31,438 --> 00:14:33,374
He deserved better
than what happened to him.

273
00:14:35,844 --> 00:14:37,244
You're right.

274
00:14:38,212 --> 00:14:39,413
He did deserve better.

275
00:14:42,483 --> 00:14:44,118
I'll tell you what happened.

276
00:14:48,989 --> 00:14:51,458
Oh, hey, if Edith called
with another update, it's true.

277
00:14:51,593 --> 00:14:54,094
I did go inside the house,
but only to look for food.

278
00:14:54,228 --> 00:14:55,530
<i>How did it go</i>
<i>with Peter's widower?</i>

279
00:14:55,663 --> 00:14:57,030
He gave us a name.

280
00:14:57,532 --> 00:14:59,466
-His own.
-I'm sorry, what?

281
00:14:59,601 --> 00:15:02,169
A few years ago,
he had a knee replacement,

282
00:15:02,302 --> 00:15:03,772
got hooked on opioids.

283
00:15:03,904 --> 00:15:06,407
When the prescriptions ran out,
he started buying from dealers.

284
00:15:06,541 --> 00:15:08,075
They turned him on to heroin.

285
00:15:08,208 --> 00:15:11,345
Peter found out
and gave him a choice,
get clean or get out.

286
00:15:11,478 --> 00:15:13,147
I'm guessing they had a prenup?

287
00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:16,584
Steven would have been left
with nothing, so he paid
their pool guy ten grand

288
00:15:16,718 --> 00:15:18,853
to shoot Peter
in his favorite restaurant.

289
00:15:19,019 --> 00:15:21,790
<i>Steven's sober now,</i>
<i>and the guilt over what</i>
<i>he had done was killing him,</i>

290
00:15:21,922 --> 00:15:23,858
<i>so when he saw a chance</i>
<i>to make things right today</i>

291
00:15:23,991 --> 00:15:24,992
Yeah, he took it.

292
00:15:25,560 --> 00:15:27,796
Peter Bellwether's murder
is finally solved.

293
00:15:28,395 --> 00:15:30,464
Except it has nothing to do
with Victor Ochoa.

294
00:15:40,107 --> 00:15:42,276
Coming in. Put your pants on.

295
00:15:45,547 --> 00:15:47,916
I make my mom's paella
and you don't come in to mooch?

296
00:15:48,048 --> 00:15:49,483
Sofia's worried about you.

297
00:15:51,318 --> 00:15:54,321
Yeah, I don't know. I've just
I've been through everything.

298
00:15:55,222 --> 00:15:57,659
The scene inside the restaurant
where Peter Bellwether
was killed,

299
00:15:57,792 --> 00:15:58,893
the scene
outside the restaurant,

300
00:15:59,026 --> 00:16:01,094
even the fricking baby hippo
at the zoo and

301
00:16:03,030 --> 00:16:05,600
I thought for sure
I'd find a link to Victor, but

302
00:16:05,733 --> 00:16:07,502
Not seeing it?

303
00:16:07,635 --> 00:16:10,437
Either he was wrong
about what I captured
on my camera, or I'm wrong now.

304
00:16:11,038 --> 00:16:12,439
Unless I figure out
some kind of connection,

305
00:16:12,574 --> 00:16:13,908
this only ends one way.

306
00:16:14,742 --> 00:16:17,612
Me going back to Apalachee
and maybe for good this time.

307
00:16:18,445 --> 00:16:19,980
And I've dragged everyone
I care about

308
00:16:20,113 --> 00:16:22,449
into Victor Ochoa's crosshairs
for no reason.

309
00:16:22,584 --> 00:16:23,818
Not you, R.J.

310
00:16:26,186 --> 00:16:28,623
You are such an idiot.

311
00:16:29,691 --> 00:16:33,994
My dad used to say,
" <i>Cuidate, mija.</i>
Careful who you let get close.

312
00:16:34,127 --> 00:16:35,864
Choose wisely."

313
00:16:36,497 --> 00:16:39,667
I never would have chosen you,
but you wormed your way
in anyway.

314
00:16:41,034 --> 00:16:44,037
And that makes it
not just your fight anymore.

315
00:16:44,171 --> 00:16:47,909
Cath, Wish, Emi Ochoa, me,
we're all in it.

316
00:16:48,877 --> 00:16:50,812
Something in here got you
sent to prison,

317
00:16:50,945 --> 00:16:54,549
and my money says
you'll find it
'cause it turns out you're

318
00:16:56,651 --> 00:16:57,986
a pretty good investigator.

319
00:17:00,120 --> 00:17:01,689
Actually, I take that back.

320
00:17:01,823 --> 00:17:03,591
Not the part
about you being good,

321
00:17:04,258 --> 00:17:07,294
the part about you finding how
these pictures connect
to Victor Ochoa.

322
00:17:07,427 --> 00:17:09,831
You would have had to know
what to look for.

323
00:17:09,964 --> 00:17:11,331
-What do you mean?
-That.

324
00:17:11,833 --> 00:17:14,002
Right there?
That's Ray Mercado's car.

325
00:17:14,134 --> 00:17:15,469
Are you sure?

326
00:17:15,603 --> 00:17:18,171
I should be. I stuck a knife
in those tires this morning.

327
00:17:21,208 --> 00:17:23,076
But Ray didn't kill
Peter Bellwether,

328
00:17:23,210 --> 00:17:26,681
so why would Victor be
so worried about us
being able to put him there?

329
00:17:27,381 --> 00:17:30,752
Maybe that murder
isn't the only crime
that went down that night.

330
00:17:36,658 --> 00:17:40,394
Let me guess.
You caught the guy
who slashed my tires.

331
00:17:40,528 --> 00:17:42,195
Oh, no. I'm sorry, Mr. Mercado.

332
00:17:42,329 --> 00:17:44,097
That crime remains a mystery,

333
00:17:44,231 --> 00:17:46,568
unlike the one
we asked you here
to talk about.

334
00:17:47,702 --> 00:17:50,170
That's your car. Yeah?
I'll save you the trouble.

335
00:17:50,304 --> 00:17:51,773
It's definitely your car.

336
00:17:51,906 --> 00:17:53,407
This picture was taken
on the evening

337
00:17:53,541 --> 00:17:56,209
of March 4th, 2024,
by Mr. Decker here.

338
00:17:56,343 --> 00:17:58,613
It's a pretty
unremarkable photo, isn't it?

339
00:17:58,746 --> 00:18:00,782
And yet a-a great deal
of effort was made

340
00:18:00,915 --> 00:18:03,551
to make sure
it never came to light,
and we think we know why.

341
00:18:03,685 --> 00:18:06,888
Mr. Decker was in the area
that night because of a murder
in a restaurant,

342
00:18:07,021 --> 00:18:09,524
but you were there
because of a death

343
00:18:09,657 --> 00:18:11,224
in a building
across the street,

344
00:18:11,358 --> 00:18:14,494
one that didn't come to light
until two days later.

345
00:18:14,629 --> 00:18:17,331
Jessica Laurent.
Do you recognize her?

346
00:18:18,600 --> 00:18:20,200
She was supposed to get married
that April.

347
00:18:20,334 --> 00:18:22,302
When she didn't show up
for work on March 6th,

348
00:18:22,436 --> 00:18:25,238
her fiancé went to her
apartment and found her
hanging from a rafter.

349
00:18:25,372 --> 00:18:29,510
Yeah, the ME ruled it
a suicide,
but we think he got it wrong.

350
00:18:31,378 --> 00:18:34,481
You strangled her,
and you made it look like
a suicide.

351
00:18:34,616 --> 00:18:35,984
Why would I do that?

352
00:18:36,116 --> 00:18:39,520
Same reason you do anything,
Ray. Victor Ochoa told you to.

353
00:18:40,120 --> 00:18:41,789
Jessica Laurent was
an architect,

354
00:18:41,923 --> 00:18:44,324
a damn good one,
very in demand.

355
00:18:44,458 --> 00:18:46,694
A source tells us
that your boss, Victor,

356
00:18:46,828 --> 00:18:49,631
he'd been chasing her for years
to do a job
with Ochoa Development.

357
00:18:49,764 --> 00:18:51,032
She kept saying no.

358
00:18:51,164 --> 00:18:53,500
Yeah, Victor doesn't like
hearing the word no, does he?

359
00:18:53,635 --> 00:18:55,235
A source?

360
00:18:55,369 --> 00:18:58,806
We don't have enough
to charge you, not yet,
but we're getting close.

361
00:18:58,940 --> 00:19:00,842
This is your window, Ray.

362
00:19:00,975 --> 00:19:02,476
Give us Victor now,

363
00:19:02,610 --> 00:19:04,979
or there isn't gonna be
a lifeboat left
when you need one.

364
00:19:06,981 --> 00:19:08,016
Are we done here?

365
00:19:10,985 --> 00:19:12,120
Yeah.

366
00:19:13,921 --> 00:19:14,956
Do me a favor.

367
00:19:15,923 --> 00:19:17,224
Say hi to Emilia for me.

368
00:19:24,732 --> 00:19:28,536
What do you think? Any chance
Ray takes matters
into his own hands,

369
00:19:28,670 --> 00:19:30,370
goes to say hi to Emi himself?

370
00:19:30,505 --> 00:19:31,973
Well, she would say no,

371
00:19:32,106 --> 00:19:34,008
but you're assuming
Victor wouldn't just order him
to do it.

372
00:19:34,142 --> 00:19:37,344
Meanwhile, I got my best guy
keeping an eye on Ray
just in case.

373
00:19:37,477 --> 00:19:40,347
Your best guy wouldn't happen
to look like Shaggy
from <i>Scooby-Doo,</i> would he?

374
00:19:40,480 --> 00:19:43,151
You're saying that like Shaggy
didn't solve, like,
a bunch of mysteries.

375
00:19:52,060 --> 00:19:54,729
Going for a ride.

376
00:19:56,698 --> 00:19:59,232
Really should have peed first.

377
00:20:02,904 --> 00:20:07,240
Emi, you honestly believe
your father
had Jessica Laurent killed?

378
00:20:07,374 --> 00:20:09,544
You've met Ray Mercado
once or twice.

379
00:20:09,677 --> 00:20:11,411
Uh, yeah, yeah,
your dad's friend.

380
00:20:11,546 --> 00:20:15,215
More like his fixer.
The police think
he killed Jessica.

381
00:20:15,883 --> 00:20:17,217
They're taking
a hard look at him.

382
00:20:17,852 --> 00:20:20,955
Any luck, he'll confess,
flip on my father.

383
00:20:21,488 --> 00:20:22,857
I'm here in case he doesn't.

384
00:20:24,324 --> 00:20:27,394
Before Jessica died,
you were commissioning
more work from her

385
00:20:27,528 --> 00:20:29,262
than anyone else in town.

386
00:20:29,396 --> 00:20:31,398
Did she ever talk to you
about my father?

387
00:20:31,532 --> 00:20:35,402
Listen, Emi,
there are very few people
that scare me.

388
00:20:36,938 --> 00:20:38,305
Your father does.

389
00:20:40,141 --> 00:20:41,374
I understand, Bruce.

390
00:20:42,877 --> 00:20:44,011
I really do.

391
00:20:47,115 --> 00:20:50,885
Hey, listen,
if you think it'll help,
I can give you some names.

392
00:20:51,018 --> 00:20:52,887
Jessica's friends,
you can talk to all of them.

393
00:20:53,788 --> 00:20:58,192
But just, please, promise me
that you will be careful.

394
00:21:01,763 --> 00:21:03,765
Everyone I talked to
about Jessica Laurent

395
00:21:03,898 --> 00:21:06,134
believed that she
killed herself.

396
00:21:06,266 --> 00:21:08,136
-Really? No one had questions?
-No one.

397
00:21:08,936 --> 00:21:13,241
And yet I know my father was
trying hard to recruit her
around that time.

398
00:21:14,208 --> 00:21:16,978
Suspicious,
but it isn't proof of anything.

399
00:21:18,079 --> 00:21:20,581
Well, Ray's not ready
to help us either,
not yet anyway.

400
00:21:22,216 --> 00:21:23,251
What?

401
00:21:24,552 --> 00:21:27,989
It's just been crazy
the last couple of days.

402
00:21:29,389 --> 00:21:33,426
We haven't had a chance
to talk about us,

403
00:21:34,427 --> 00:21:36,097
about what happened
the other night.

404
00:21:38,166 --> 00:21:39,267
No.

405
00:21:40,635 --> 00:21:41,636
No, we have not.

406
00:21:42,703 --> 00:21:44,672
This thing that we do,

407
00:21:45,405 --> 00:21:47,141
whatever it is
we are to each other,

408
00:21:48,042 --> 00:21:50,545
I've been trying
to figure it out.

409
00:21:52,412 --> 00:21:57,350
Can't just be hookups in places
that have wheels on them,
can it?

410
00:22:02,957 --> 00:22:03,991
Hey, what's going on?

411
00:22:04,125 --> 00:22:05,458
<i>I'm still at Ray's shop, but</i>

412
00:22:06,627 --> 00:22:09,063
just, something feels off.

413
00:22:09,197 --> 00:22:10,298
What do you mean?

414
00:22:11,165 --> 00:22:12,233
<i>I see smoke.</i>

415
00:22:12,365 --> 00:22:14,035
It could be from an engine.

416
00:22:14,168 --> 00:22:18,338
It could be he's down there
burning files
or evidence or something.

417
00:22:19,106 --> 00:22:20,508
I thought maybe I'd, you know

418
00:22:20,641 --> 00:22:23,177
Uh, no, no, no, no,
no, no, no, no, no.
Stay in the car.

419
00:22:23,311 --> 00:22:24,312
<i>Are you sure?</i>

420
00:22:24,879 --> 00:22:28,316
Very. I-I don't want you
getting yourself
in any trouble, okay?

421
00:22:28,448 --> 00:22:31,185
All right.
Oh, ho hold on, hold on.

422
00:22:33,721 --> 00:22:34,989
Looks like we got a visitor.

423
00:22:36,057 --> 00:22:38,860
-What do you mean?
<i>-I mean somebody's headed up</i>
<i>to the shop.</i>

424
00:22:38,993 --> 00:22:40,928
Just stay put, all right?

425
00:22:49,937 --> 00:22:52,940
The door is open,
but I don't quite have
an angle on it.

426
00:22:57,745 --> 00:22:59,146
Wish, what the hell was that?

427
00:22:59,280 --> 00:23:01,182
Call 911. Do it now.

428
00:23:11,893 --> 00:23:15,563
Come on stay with me, big guy.
Hey, hey.

429
00:23:16,564 --> 00:23:20,433
Hey, come on, talk to me.
Who did this?
Was it Victor Ochoa? Huh?

430
00:23:35,883 --> 00:23:38,586
-You all right?
-Sorry, it's just

431
00:23:39,754 --> 00:23:43,824
I knew Ray my whole life. He
He was a good guy
once upon a time.

432
00:23:45,226 --> 00:23:47,762
I mean, I can count the people
my father trusts on one hand.

433
00:23:47,895 --> 00:23:50,765
For him to do this,
Ray must have been closer

434
00:23:50,898 --> 00:23:52,733
to talking about
Jessica Laurent's murder
than we thought.

435
00:23:52,867 --> 00:23:54,135
I don't know.

436
00:23:54,869 --> 00:23:56,304
Maybe your dad's
just getting paranoid.

437
00:23:56,436 --> 00:23:57,772
Ray didn't have much to say
at the end.

438
00:23:57,905 --> 00:23:58,839
What do you mean?

439
00:23:58,973 --> 00:24:00,408
Wish asked him who did it.

440
00:24:00,875 --> 00:24:04,312
All he said was,
"Peppermint, stick, thumb."

441
00:24:06,914 --> 00:24:08,616
Does that mean something
to you?

442
00:24:08,749 --> 00:24:10,618
I think I know
what he was trying to say.

443
00:24:11,385 --> 00:24:13,654
He just died
before he could say
the last word, "drive."

444
00:24:13,788 --> 00:24:15,356
Peppermint stick thumb drive.

445
00:24:16,157 --> 00:24:18,726
My father has a safe at home
where he keeps
important documents.

446
00:24:18,859 --> 00:24:21,595
I've seen the thumb drive
Ray was talking about
in there. It's

447
00:24:21,729 --> 00:24:23,998
-It's striped like
a candy cane.
-Do you know what was on it?

448
00:24:24,131 --> 00:24:25,967
No, I've never seen it
outside of the safe,

449
00:24:26,100 --> 00:24:27,969
but I-I'm betting
whatever it is,

450
00:24:28,102 --> 00:24:30,638
it ties my father
to what happened
to Jessica Laurent.

451
00:24:30,771 --> 00:24:32,139
Do you think you can get
inside the safe?

452
00:24:32,273 --> 00:24:34,508
The safe, no problem.
The house?

453
00:24:35,776 --> 00:24:38,980
My father's security won't let
me within 100 feet of it
right now.

454
00:24:39,814 --> 00:24:41,349
But that might be okay.

455
00:24:42,083 --> 00:24:44,352
I may only need to get
within 101.

456
00:24:47,321 --> 00:24:49,924
Sir, there's something going on
in front of the house.

457
00:25:01,502 --> 00:25:03,037
She got here just
a few minutes ago.

458
00:25:03,170 --> 00:25:05,873
She's saying she won't move
until you two have talked.

459
00:25:06,941 --> 00:25:07,975
Okay.

460
00:25:11,112 --> 00:25:13,147
I assume you're here
to talk about what happened
to Ray.

461
00:25:13,280 --> 00:25:15,316
I'm pretty sure you mean
what you had done to Ray.

462
00:25:15,449 --> 00:25:18,886
Ray was <i>familia</i> . I loved him.
I would have never hurt him.

463
00:25:19,020 --> 00:25:22,456
Yourself? No.
If I had to guess,
it was one of them.

464
00:25:22,590 --> 00:25:24,191
Or, I don't know,

465
00:25:24,325 --> 00:25:26,360
a friend suggested
the other day you may have
ties to organized crime.

466
00:25:27,395 --> 00:25:30,164
Maybe you borrowed a <i>sicario</i>
from some nice cartel?

467
00:25:30,297 --> 00:25:31,766
Emilia, please,
let's take this inside.

468
00:25:31,899 --> 00:25:33,534
I-I'm not going anywhere
with you.

469
00:25:33,667 --> 00:25:35,136
You want to talk?
We'll do it right here.

470
00:25:45,012 --> 00:25:46,047
How's it going out there?

471
00:25:46,180 --> 00:25:48,215
Good. Two of the three
security guards

472
00:25:48,349 --> 00:25:50,084
Emi told us about
are taking in the show.

473
00:25:50,217 --> 00:25:51,952
Okay, let me know
if that changes.

474
00:25:52,521 --> 00:25:53,888
Why would I hurt Ray?

475
00:25:54,021 --> 00:25:57,158
Because two years ago,
he killed Jessica Laurent
for you.

476
00:25:57,291 --> 00:25:58,527
No, that's not true.

477
00:25:59,560 --> 00:26:00,961
The pictures R.J.
took that night?

478
00:26:01,095 --> 00:26:02,663
The ones I told you
I destroyed?

479
00:26:02,797 --> 00:26:07,268
I didn't. One of them shows
Ray's car parked
across from her building.

480
00:26:22,049 --> 00:26:23,384
I appreciate you doing this,
you know?

481
00:26:24,051 --> 00:26:25,086
What?

482
00:26:25,219 --> 00:26:27,721
Being an accessory
to whatever this is.

483
00:26:28,523 --> 00:26:30,491
I know you don't like Emi
all that much.

484
00:26:30,624 --> 00:26:32,927
Eh. She's growing on me.

485
00:26:34,628 --> 00:26:35,763
Okay.

486
00:26:43,437 --> 00:26:45,306
-Uh-oh.
-Uh-oh? What's uh-oh?

487
00:26:45,439 --> 00:26:47,241
The code Emi gave me
for the safe,

488
00:26:47,374 --> 00:26:49,610
Uh, she said it was
her birthday,
but it's not working.

489
00:26:49,743 --> 00:26:51,345
Her dad must have changed
the code.

490
00:26:51,479 --> 00:26:54,782
<i>Mija</i> , think. Am I a stupid man?

491
00:26:54,915 --> 00:26:57,418
What could I have
possibly gained
from Jessica Laurent's death?

492
00:26:57,552 --> 00:26:59,620
What did you gain
by torching Lucas's boat?

493
00:27:02,890 --> 00:27:04,125
You're a bully.

494
00:27:04,258 --> 00:27:06,927
Bullies don't need agendas.
They need targets.

495
00:27:07,061 --> 00:27:09,263
They need to hurt people
so they can feel big.

496
00:27:15,269 --> 00:27:17,004
Yep, that's three attempts.

497
00:27:17,138 --> 00:27:18,939
According to the Internet,
this model of safe,

498
00:27:19,073 --> 00:27:21,976
after a fourth failed attempt,
you're locked out for an hour.

499
00:27:22,109 --> 00:27:25,279
I don't think this argument's
gonna last that long.

500
00:27:25,412 --> 00:27:27,616
Uh, hang on. I have an idea.

501
00:27:29,383 --> 00:27:30,784
I've made mistakes.

502
00:27:31,886 --> 00:27:32,853
Terrible mistakes.

503
00:27:32,987 --> 00:27:35,189
But killing Ray is not
one of them.

504
00:27:35,656 --> 00:27:38,025
I'm begging you, believe me.

505
00:27:39,293 --> 00:27:40,294
Come back to me.

506
00:27:41,428 --> 00:27:44,331
Together, I promise,
we can fix all of this.

507
00:27:44,932 --> 00:27:46,367
I
I can't come back.

508
00:27:47,602 --> 00:27:48,669
It's too late.

509
00:27:48,802 --> 00:27:50,905
You and your friend,

510
00:27:51,606 --> 00:27:53,874
you want me out of office,
maybe even in prison.

511
00:27:55,009 --> 00:27:57,612
But it would be a mistake
because you're right.

512
00:27:58,580 --> 00:28:02,349
I do have dangerous friends,
more than you can even
understand,

513
00:28:02,483 --> 00:28:05,554
but I maintain
those relationships
for the good of the city,

514
00:28:05,686 --> 00:28:07,488
for the good of the state.

515
00:28:07,622 --> 00:28:12,893
I do what I have to do
to keep the peace,
to save lives.

516
00:28:13,027 --> 00:28:16,230
0-8-0-7-5-8.

517
00:28:16,363 --> 00:28:20,602
-What's that?
-Just try it. 0-8-0-7-5-8.

518
00:28:25,540 --> 00:28:27,908
Oh, my God. It worked.

519
00:28:31,345 --> 00:28:33,480
He changed the code
from Emi's birthday to his own.

520
00:28:33,615 --> 00:28:35,684
Nice thing
about malignant narcissists,

521
00:28:35,816 --> 00:28:37,751
their self-obsession
can make them predictable.

522
00:28:38,385 --> 00:28:42,256
You stay this course,
I won't try to stop you

523
00:28:44,124 --> 00:28:47,261
but there may come a time
when I can no longer
protect you.

524
00:28:50,931 --> 00:28:54,368
These past few years,
you hiding things from me,

525
00:28:54,501 --> 00:28:58,172
asking me to perjure myself,
to send a good man to prison?

526
00:28:58,305 --> 00:29:02,876
If that was you protecting me
I wish you hadn't.

527
00:29:13,087 --> 00:29:14,723
Hey, we have the thumb drive.
We're headed to you.

528
00:29:14,855 --> 00:29:16,790
Turn around, go someplace else.

529
00:29:17,424 --> 00:29:18,593
Why? What's going on?

530
00:29:18,727 --> 00:29:20,729
Couple of cops
were just here looking for you.

531
00:29:20,861 --> 00:29:22,329
What?

532
00:29:22,463 --> 00:29:23,598
<i>Seems old Victor</i>
<i>finally made good</i>
<i>on his threat.</i>

533
00:29:23,732 --> 00:29:26,568
Your new CRO,
he had you violated.

534
00:29:26,701 --> 00:29:27,968
There's a warrant out
for your arrest.

535
00:29:45,052 --> 00:29:46,186
- Hey.
<i>- Hey.</i>

536
00:29:46,320 --> 00:29:49,490
I'm just, um,
checking in on you, ol' buddy.

537
00:29:50,357 --> 00:29:51,626
Yeah, I'm good, thanks.

538
00:29:52,826 --> 00:29:57,031
I am, as you know,
a law-abiding citizen now.

539
00:29:57,831 --> 00:29:59,668
<i>Have been, intend to be.</i>

540
00:29:59,800 --> 00:30:02,836
But like I told you
the other day,
I know people that know people.

541
00:30:02,970 --> 00:30:06,240
<i>One of 'em might be able</i>
<i>to help you go someplace else,</i>

542
00:30:06,373 --> 00:30:07,642
get a fresh start.

543
00:30:07,776 --> 00:30:10,277
Wish, are you asking me
if I want to go on the run?

544
00:30:10,411 --> 00:30:12,446
<i>I'll answer that question</i>
<i>with another question.</i>

545
00:30:12,580 --> 00:30:16,016
How many times
you want to go to prison
for something you didn't do?

546
00:30:22,122 --> 00:30:26,561
I just sent you a number.
You need it, you call it. Okay?

547
00:30:26,695 --> 00:30:28,730
Yeah, I got it, okay. Thanks.

548
00:30:43,812 --> 00:30:47,816
Yeah, hi. Uh, I'm calling
'cause I need your help.

549
00:30:52,353 --> 00:30:53,987
Hey.

550
00:30:54,121 --> 00:30:56,890
I was starting to worry
you weren't gonna show.
Did you get it?

551
00:31:03,864 --> 00:31:05,466
So?

552
00:31:05,966 --> 00:31:08,068
So, it's strange.

553
00:31:08,202 --> 00:31:09,504
Good strange or bad strange?

554
00:31:09,637 --> 00:31:12,841
Every single file here
is the work of Jessica Laurent.

555
00:31:12,973 --> 00:31:15,543
Blueprints, floor plans,
elevations,

556
00:31:15,677 --> 00:31:17,612
all from the same building
downtown, Seabright Tower.

557
00:31:17,746 --> 00:31:20,013
-Yeah?
-She designed the place
a few years ago.

558
00:31:20,147 --> 00:31:21,750
But I'm confused.

559
00:31:21,882 --> 00:31:23,250
I thought you said
she didn't do any work
with Ochoa Development.

560
00:31:23,384 --> 00:31:26,053
She didn't. Seabright Tower
is one of Bruce's buildings.

561
00:31:26,186 --> 00:31:28,422
He's the guy
I went to see the other day,
the investor.

562
00:31:28,556 --> 00:31:30,057
He worked with Jessica
all the time.

563
00:31:30,725 --> 00:31:32,960
But if Seabright Tower
isn't one of your dad's
projects,

564
00:31:33,093 --> 00:31:35,195
why the hell is
this thumb drive in his safe?

565
00:31:35,329 --> 00:31:37,197
It had to have come from Ray.

566
00:31:37,331 --> 00:31:39,066
He must have taken it
the night he killed her.

567
00:31:39,868 --> 00:31:42,637
If he didn't,
he wouldn't have known
to tell Wish about it.

568
00:31:42,771 --> 00:31:44,204
Ray didn't have access
to the safe.

569
00:31:44,338 --> 00:31:46,808
Right, so, what, two years ago,
your dad sent Ray to steal it?

570
00:31:47,575 --> 00:31:51,211
Maybe there was
some design element
he was trying to rip off?

571
00:31:51,880 --> 00:31:55,082
But I don't know,
for someone
like Jessica Laurent,

572
00:31:55,215 --> 00:31:57,886
Seabright Tower was
borderline mundane.

573
00:31:58,018 --> 00:32:01,088
High-end, luxurious,
but more substance than style.

574
00:32:02,657 --> 00:32:04,793
So, in other words,
after all that work
this morning,

575
00:32:04,925 --> 00:32:06,861
the only thing we might be able
to hang on your dad

576
00:32:06,994 --> 00:32:08,095
is intellectual property theft.

577
00:32:08,228 --> 00:32:11,131
It's okay. We'll figure it out.

578
00:32:13,267 --> 00:32:15,670
Yeah, well, we sort of need
to figure it out by 5:00 p.m.

579
00:32:16,437 --> 00:32:18,439
That's when I'm due
to turn myself in
to the police.

580
00:32:19,139 --> 00:32:20,474
What?

581
00:32:20,608 --> 00:32:22,911
Yeah, your dad,
he did what he said
he was gonna do.

582
00:32:23,043 --> 00:32:24,411
He got me violated.

583
00:32:26,848 --> 00:32:30,350
But it's okay. I called Mel
a little while ago.

584
00:32:31,719 --> 00:32:33,855
She's gonna meet me at 5:00.
I'll surrender myself.

585
00:32:34,021 --> 00:32:35,890
Any luck, she and my attorney
will straighten out

586
00:32:36,023 --> 00:32:37,826
this little misunderstanding
with the CRO.

587
00:32:37,958 --> 00:32:39,159
I could be out by morning.

588
00:32:39,293 --> 00:32:41,395
R.J., you know my father
isn't gonna let that happen.

589
00:32:46,233 --> 00:32:47,635
Hmm.

590
00:32:48,903 --> 00:32:50,270
What? What is it?

591
00:32:50,404 --> 00:32:53,106
I-I don't know. It's this file.

592
00:32:53,240 --> 00:32:55,042
I mean,
if this is what I think it is,

593
00:32:55,175 --> 00:32:57,679
your dad might not have been
the one to want
Jessica Laurent dead after all.

594
00:32:59,480 --> 00:33:01,950
That's okay.
It's maybe even good
because if I'm right,

595
00:33:02,082 --> 00:33:05,152
person who did
can give us your dad
on a platter.

596
00:33:09,958 --> 00:33:11,291
Mr. Vinkour.

597
00:33:12,727 --> 00:33:14,127
Believe you know Emi Ochoa.

598
00:33:14,829 --> 00:33:17,832
Uh, I do. Just spoke yesterday,
as a matter of fact.

599
00:33:18,766 --> 00:33:20,869
I assume you're here
for the same reason I am?

600
00:33:21,001 --> 00:33:22,069
Background on Jessica?

601
00:33:22,202 --> 00:33:23,705
Oh, Miss Ochoa's already done
her part.

602
00:33:23,838 --> 00:33:27,207
She's been very helpful,
but we still have
some questions.

603
00:33:27,341 --> 00:33:29,376
As I believe you know,
we've been circling
the possibility

604
00:33:29,511 --> 00:33:32,680
that Jessica was killed
by a man named Ray Mercado.

605
00:33:33,648 --> 00:33:36,885
That's his car parked across
from her apartment the night
she died.

606
00:33:37,351 --> 00:33:39,319
It's very troubling.

607
00:33:39,854 --> 00:33:42,657
You mean seeing his car there,
or seeing yours?

608
00:33:43,958 --> 00:33:46,260
Made us wonder,
did Ray kill Jessica,

609
00:33:46,393 --> 00:33:47,862
or did he just handle
the cleanup?

610
00:33:49,196 --> 00:33:52,332
Uh, I I don't understand.
What, are you suggesting I

611
00:33:53,701 --> 00:33:54,936
I would never.

612
00:33:55,570 --> 00:33:57,739
She and I worked together.
That's why I would have
been there that night.

613
00:33:57,872 --> 00:33:59,406
Hmm.

614
00:33:59,541 --> 00:34:01,776
I told Detective Abreu that
Jessica designed
Seabright Tower for you.

615
00:34:01,910 --> 00:34:03,511
-Yeah.
-And I explained
how things work

616
00:34:03,645 --> 00:34:05,178
in our business,

617
00:34:05,312 --> 00:34:08,181
sprinting to put up
one building
so we can pay for the next.

618
00:34:08,315 --> 00:34:11,886
Seabright Tower was leveraged
to the hilt.
It had to be on time.

619
00:34:12,520 --> 00:34:15,455
Financing these things,
it can be risky.

620
00:34:15,590 --> 00:34:18,058
The structural integrity
of your buildings can't be.

621
00:34:18,960 --> 00:34:20,427
You've seen this before, yes?

622
00:34:21,161 --> 00:34:22,564
Yeah.

623
00:34:22,697 --> 00:34:24,766
I think you've seen this too.

624
00:34:27,936 --> 00:34:29,236
Jessica created it
the day she died.

625
00:34:29,369 --> 00:34:32,105
Miss Ochoa explained
it's a standard stress test.

626
00:34:32,239 --> 00:34:34,008
It shows how a building
will stand up to wind shear.

627
00:34:34,576 --> 00:34:38,046
Jessica discovered a fatal flaw
in the Seabright Tower
site plan.

628
00:34:38,178 --> 00:34:41,415
Those two neighboring buildings
create a wind tunnel

629
00:34:41,549 --> 00:34:44,184
that can amplify
tropical storm force gusts.

630
00:34:44,318 --> 00:34:45,620
She showed it to you,

631
00:34:45,753 --> 00:34:47,722
told you to slam on the brakes,
only you couldn't.

632
00:34:47,855 --> 00:34:51,291
It would have cost you tens,
maybe hundreds
of millions of dollars.

633
00:34:51,425 --> 00:34:53,728
At first we thought
maybe you hired Ray
to kill her.

634
00:34:53,861 --> 00:34:55,395
Then we saw your car.
Made us wonder,

635
00:34:55,530 --> 00:34:57,130
"Why would you go there
with him?"

636
00:34:57,264 --> 00:35:00,001
Unless you didn't.
You were there first.

637
00:35:00,133 --> 00:35:02,604
You killed Jessica,
and then, in a panic,

638
00:35:02,737 --> 00:35:06,139
you called the most corrupt,
most connected person you knew
for help.

639
00:35:06,273 --> 00:35:08,408
My father. He sent Ray.

640
00:35:08,543 --> 00:35:10,377
Ray made it look like
Jessica killed herself.

641
00:35:11,111 --> 00:35:13,081
No. No!

642
00:35:13,213 --> 00:35:15,148
These-These models are
theoretical.

643
00:35:16,050 --> 00:35:17,819
Storm simulations
overstate risk all the time.

644
00:35:17,952 --> 00:35:19,353
I'm not here to talk
about engineering.

645
00:35:19,486 --> 00:35:21,856
I'm not even here to book you
for Jessica Laurent's murder.

646
00:35:21,990 --> 00:35:24,592
Not enough proof. Ray's murder,
on the other hand

647
00:35:24,726 --> 00:35:27,762
When I came to see you,
I told you the police
were leaning on him.

648
00:35:29,296 --> 00:35:30,632
I assume
that's why you killed him.

649
00:35:31,633 --> 00:35:33,333
To make sure
he couldn't tell them
about you?

650
00:35:33,467 --> 00:35:37,404
These shell casings,
they're registered
to a gun we know you own.

651
00:35:38,138 --> 00:35:39,272
And this blood?

652
00:35:39,406 --> 00:35:41,776
You cut yourself on a fence
as you fled.

653
00:35:41,909 --> 00:35:44,579
Without Ray around
to clean up after you,
I gotta say,

654
00:35:44,712 --> 00:35:45,813
you're not very good at murder.

655
00:35:45,947 --> 00:35:47,481
Tell me something.

656
00:35:48,448 --> 00:35:51,151
Why do you suppose
my father held on
to that thumb drive?

657
00:35:52,452 --> 00:35:54,488
Blackmail material.

658
00:35:56,124 --> 00:35:57,692
In case he needed
to leverage me.

659
00:35:57,825 --> 00:35:59,961
You're the one
with the leverage now.

660
00:36:00,094 --> 00:36:02,496
Tell the truth
about the role he played.

661
00:36:02,630 --> 00:36:05,399
Give the DA a reason
to not pursue
the death penalty.

662
00:36:10,437 --> 00:36:13,107
It happened just like you said.

663
00:36:14,642 --> 00:36:15,843
Every bit of it.

664
00:36:18,178 --> 00:36:19,479
I'll tell you everything.

665
00:36:56,818 --> 00:36:58,251
It's funny.

666
00:36:59,020 --> 00:37:02,355
You think you won,
but my attorneys
have already assured me

667
00:37:02,489 --> 00:37:04,759
that the state's case
against me is a joke.

668
00:37:05,560 --> 00:37:07,595
I'll make bail
in a matter of hours.

669
00:37:07,729 --> 00:37:11,933
And then,
if the district attorney,
an old friend,

670
00:37:12,800 --> 00:37:15,402
actually decides
he wants to prosecute me,

671
00:37:15,536 --> 00:37:18,606
it'll come down to my word
against Bruce Vinkour's.

672
00:37:18,740 --> 00:37:22,610
You're right.
I didn't win the war,
just the battle.

673
00:37:23,845 --> 00:37:25,947
But a heck of a battle,
am I right?

674
00:37:26,948 --> 00:37:29,249
I mean, before today,
you were untouchable.

675
00:37:29,382 --> 00:37:34,789
Now? Now you're gonna be under
a microscope the size
of Seabright Tower.

676
00:37:34,922 --> 00:37:36,991
You remember Seabright Tower,
right?

677
00:37:37,125 --> 00:37:39,259
Big building,
home to almost 200 people?

678
00:37:39,392 --> 00:37:40,795
But you were willing
to keep it a secret

679
00:37:40,928 --> 00:37:43,531
the place would collapse
in a hurricane because why?

680
00:37:43,664 --> 00:37:46,067
Just to have a little dirt
on your buddy Bruce?

681
00:37:46,200 --> 00:37:48,468
See, I got a secret
for you, Vic.

682
00:37:50,238 --> 00:37:51,873
I think you are going
to prison.

683
00:37:52,707 --> 00:37:55,843
Because you're wrong.
It won't be
just your word against Bruce's.

684
00:37:55,977 --> 00:37:57,845
It'll be your word
against Emi's too.

685
00:37:59,547 --> 00:38:01,249
Say you're right.

686
00:38:02,550 --> 00:38:05,586
She'll have to get used to
visiting both of us
behind bars.

687
00:38:05,720 --> 00:38:08,689
Nope, she won't,
'cause I'm not going to prison.

688
00:38:08,823 --> 00:38:09,957
At least not today.

689
00:38:10,091 --> 00:38:11,893
That whole little mix-up
with my new CRO,

690
00:38:12,026 --> 00:38:13,661
that got cleared up
just a little while ago.

691
00:38:13,795 --> 00:38:17,999
You see, my friend,
she works here.
She paid him a visit.

692
00:38:18,132 --> 00:38:20,968
She made it very clear
just how scrutinized
you were about to be,

693
00:38:21,102 --> 00:38:25,139
how many secrets would be
coming out in the next days,
weeks, months.

694
00:38:25,273 --> 00:38:26,674
All of a sudden

695
00:38:26,808 --> 00:38:28,176
he realized he made a mistake.

696
00:38:28,308 --> 00:38:30,211
I didn't commit any violations
after all.

697
00:38:33,014 --> 00:38:35,817
You see, the truth is, Vic,
I was free to go an hour ago.

698
00:38:35,950 --> 00:38:37,852
I thought
the gentlemanly thing to do

699
00:38:37,985 --> 00:38:39,787
was to stick around
and say hello.

700
00:38:41,122 --> 00:38:42,322
And then goodbye.

701
00:38:45,827 --> 00:38:48,461
-Guard.
-This isn't over.

702
00:38:50,097 --> 00:38:51,331
It's over for today.

703
00:39:03,845 --> 00:39:05,345
F.M. Station?

704
00:39:06,013 --> 00:39:08,683
The "F.M." stands for
"Florida Man," right?

705
00:39:08,816 --> 00:39:09,917
It does.

706
00:39:10,685 --> 00:39:12,053
What about Florida women?

707
00:39:12,186 --> 00:39:14,956
If I do something weird,
can I get a free drink?

708
00:39:15,857 --> 00:39:19,560
Well, you, kiddo,
are a dear friend
of a dear friend,

709
00:39:19,694 --> 00:39:23,231
so your drinks are always free.

710
00:39:24,632 --> 00:39:27,235
-Speak of the dang ol' devil.
There he is!
-Hey.

711
00:39:27,367 --> 00:39:29,503
Oh, boy.

712
00:39:29,637 --> 00:39:32,907
Come on, come on.
Aw,
where the heck you been, son?

713
00:39:33,040 --> 00:39:34,775
- Jail.
- Party started without you.

714
00:39:35,408 --> 00:39:36,911
-Busted out the foosball table.
-I see that.

715
00:39:37,044 --> 00:39:39,013
-I made T-shirts
and everything.
-Very classy.

716
00:39:39,146 --> 00:39:40,615
Huh? Huh?

717
00:39:40,748 --> 00:39:43,050
So are we gonna meet for drinks
every time you get out of jail?

718
00:39:43,184 --> 00:39:45,353
'Cause I don't think my liver
can take it.

719
00:39:45,485 --> 00:39:47,989
-Where's your shirt?
-You put one on,
I'll put one on.

720
00:39:49,456 --> 00:39:51,592
-I'm glad you're not in prison.
-Yeah, me too.

721
00:39:52,526 --> 00:39:55,062
Emi went to the back
to take a call
from her brother.

722
00:39:55,196 --> 00:39:58,498
I don't know if you heard,
but you're not the only one
who got out of jail tonight.

723
00:40:03,704 --> 00:40:05,606
The nerve of your dad, huh?

724
00:40:05,740 --> 00:40:07,375
I go to that holding cell
early,

725
00:40:07,508 --> 00:40:09,243
I get it all nice for him,
and he just

726
00:40:09,377 --> 00:40:10,978
...He just leaves.

727
00:40:12,113 --> 00:40:13,547
I knew he'd make bail.

728
00:40:14,715 --> 00:40:16,751
Because, of course

729
00:40:18,853 --> 00:40:19,887
But still

730
00:40:20,420 --> 00:40:21,956
Yeah. You're disappointed.

731
00:40:22,590 --> 00:40:24,424
A little.

732
00:40:25,593 --> 00:40:27,628
A little sad too.

733
00:40:28,195 --> 00:40:29,697
Sorry, that's probably
a weird thing to say.

734
00:40:29,830 --> 00:40:31,832
No, it's not. He's your dad.

735
00:40:34,969 --> 00:40:37,672
The other day, you said
you wanted to figure out
whatever

736
00:40:38,773 --> 00:40:40,808
-whatever this is.
-Mmm.

737
00:40:40,942 --> 00:40:43,577
I've been thinking,
do we have to figure it out \
tonight?

738
00:40:43,711 --> 00:40:44,779
'Cause, I don't know
if you've noticed,

739
00:40:44,912 --> 00:40:46,479
but there's a foosball table
out there,

740
00:40:46,614 --> 00:40:48,950
and I'm kind of amazing.

741
00:40:49,083 --> 00:40:50,785
-Amazing?
-Oh, I could have gone pro.

742
00:41:02,495 --> 00:41:04,532
Hey, hey! No, no, ah-ah-ah!
