1
00:00:18,382 --> 00:00:20,166
DUI when I was in high school.

2
00:00:20,210 --> 00:00:22,821
It wasn't me. I wasn't driving.
My brother was.

3
00:00:22,865 --> 00:00:25,258
I have to decide
whether to maintain the story

4
00:00:25,302 --> 00:00:27,565
and possibly get caught
in a lie.

5
00:00:27,609 --> 00:00:29,785
And derail your mother's confirmation.
Uh-huh.

6
00:00:29,828 --> 00:00:30,786
Or tell the truth.

7
00:00:30,829 --> 00:00:32,265
And ruin your brother's career.

8
00:00:32,309 --> 00:00:33,832
I'm a singer. A songwriter.

9
00:00:33,876 --> 00:00:35,312
I came from Nashville
to make music.

10
00:00:35,355 --> 00:00:37,575
You mean,
you were able to get me a job?

11
00:00:37,619 --> 00:00:38,750
[chuckles]:
Got a lawyer in your bag?

12
00:00:38,794 --> 00:00:40,709
[chuckles]
I don't. She's upstairs.

13
00:00:42,493 --> 00:00:44,930
Our victim is Lieutenant
Commander Amanda Gregson.

14
00:00:44,974 --> 00:00:46,758
<i>Navy therapist at Belle Chasse.
HANNAH: Amanda</i>

15
00:00:46,802 --> 00:00:49,021
<i>was brutally murdered for
looking into this assault.</i>

16
00:00:49,065 --> 00:00:50,545
PATTON:
Petty Officer Emily Tascioni

17
00:00:50,588 --> 00:00:52,547
arrived at Belle Chasse
two months ago.

18
00:00:52,590 --> 00:00:54,200
And if he killed
the petty officer's therapist,

19
00:00:54,244 --> 00:00:56,159
that means he'll
probably go after her next.

20
00:00:56,202 --> 00:00:59,205
Emily Tascioni was Commander
Gregson's sexual assault victim.

21
00:00:59,249 --> 00:01:00,772
And she's gone.

22
00:01:06,909 --> 00:01:09,041
Look, last time you talked
to my coworkers, Ted,

23
00:01:09,085 --> 00:01:11,566
you claimed to have no idea who
our sexual assault victim was.

24
00:01:11,609 --> 00:01:13,045
Now here you are
at her house.

25
00:01:13,089 --> 00:01:15,831
I swear, I didn't know
that Petty Officer Tascioni

26
00:01:15,874 --> 00:01:17,963
was the woman
your team was looking for.

27
00:01:18,007 --> 00:01:19,486
Why'd you come here, then?
Her CO

28
00:01:19,530 --> 00:01:20,966
reached out to me.
He was worried

29
00:01:21,010 --> 00:01:22,489
when she didn't show up
for work today.

30
00:01:22,533 --> 00:01:23,839
Asked me to do a wellness check.

31
00:01:23,882 --> 00:01:25,623
You move anything?
No, ma'am.

32
00:01:25,667 --> 00:01:27,016
Found it just like this.

33
00:01:28,017 --> 00:01:29,496
So,

34
00:01:29,540 --> 00:01:30,846
she missed one day of work.

35
00:01:30,889 --> 00:01:32,804
Why call in the cavalry, then?

36
00:01:32,848 --> 00:01:34,197
Her CO had been concerned
for a while.

37
00:01:34,240 --> 00:01:36,329
Why's that?
Tascioni

38
00:01:36,373 --> 00:01:38,114
was never late for work,
always enthusiastic

39
00:01:38,157 --> 00:01:39,768
no matter how dull the task.

40
00:01:39,811 --> 00:01:41,552
Until a few weeks ago.
She became

41
00:01:41,596 --> 00:01:43,989
withdrawn,
started making mistakes.

42
00:01:44,033 --> 00:01:45,556
He knew she wasn't okay.

43
00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:47,645
Lines up
with when she was assaulted.

44
00:01:47,689 --> 00:01:48,820
Then a couple of days ago,
she found out

45
00:01:48,864 --> 00:01:51,344
someone close to her
was killed.

46
00:01:51,388 --> 00:01:53,825
HANNAH: Yeah,
that would be Amanda Gregson.

47
00:01:53,869 --> 00:01:55,697
Amanda's death might have pushed
Emily over the edge.

48
00:01:55,740 --> 00:01:57,350
HANNAH:
Her place is a mess.

49
00:01:57,394 --> 00:01:59,526
Sebastian's doing
a forensic sweep now.

50
00:01:59,570 --> 00:02:01,833
Well, maybe this
could give us some answers.

51
00:02:04,923 --> 00:02:06,664
I feel really silly doing this,

52
00:02:06,708 --> 00:02:09,101
but you asked for it, so...

53
00:02:09,145 --> 00:02:11,582
I'll give it a shot.

54
00:02:11,626 --> 00:02:15,673
It was the first date I'd had
since I got transferred here.

55
00:02:15,717 --> 00:02:20,504
We met at this Italian place
in Metairie.

56
00:02:20,547 --> 00:02:22,071
Checkered tablecloths.

57
00:02:22,114 --> 00:02:24,900
Singing waiters. Really cheesy.

58
00:02:24,943 --> 00:02:26,989
<i>It was okay, I guess.</i>

59
00:02:27,032 --> 00:02:28,991
Thank you.

60
00:02:29,034 --> 00:02:31,254
<i>Better than eating alone
in front of the TV.</i>

61
00:02:31,297 --> 00:02:33,909
<i>I went to the bathroom
at one point.</i>

62
00:02:33,952 --> 00:02:37,521
That must be
when he spiked my drink.

63
00:02:37,564 --> 00:02:40,437
<i>I mean, I guess I can't know for sure,</i>

64
00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:42,308
but I started getting dizzy.

65
00:02:42,352 --> 00:02:43,875
<i>Slurring my words.</i>

66
00:02:43,919 --> 00:02:46,095
<i>I couldn't even eat.
[man laughing]</i>

67
00:02:46,138 --> 00:02:50,665
He said
that he would get me home

68
00:02:50,708 --> 00:02:51,709
safe.

69
00:02:55,582 --> 00:02:57,236
<i>I must've blacked out,</i>

70
00:02:57,280 --> 00:02:59,412
<i>because I was suddenly
in my bed,</i>

71
00:02:59,456 --> 00:03:01,327
<i>naked.</i>

72
00:03:01,371 --> 00:03:04,374
And he was on top of me.

73
00:03:06,115 --> 00:03:08,595
I tried to say no.

74
00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:10,206
<i>I tried to push back,</i>

75
00:03:10,249 --> 00:03:11,424
<i>but I couldn't even move
my own body,</i>

76
00:03:11,468 --> 00:03:13,775
so I just pretended
to be unconscious.

77
00:03:16,647 --> 00:03:18,431
<i>Next morning...</i>

78
00:03:21,304 --> 00:03:24,263
<i>...he was gone,</i>

79
00:03:24,307 --> 00:03:26,657
<i>and I was covered in bruises.</i>

80
00:03:28,964 --> 00:03:32,010
I don't even know
everything he did to me.

81
00:03:33,969 --> 00:03:36,014
But he did a lot.

82
00:03:38,974 --> 00:03:41,498
I want to believe
what you told me.

83
00:03:42,978 --> 00:03:46,590
That if I name
the man who raped me,

84
00:03:46,633 --> 00:03:49,245
he'll be punished.

85
00:03:49,288 --> 00:03:51,856
But that's not how things work.

86
00:03:51,900 --> 00:03:54,424
And I'm so afraid now.

87
00:03:54,467 --> 00:03:57,993
I'm afraid to go to work
and see him.

88
00:03:58,036 --> 00:04:00,256
I'm afraid to be at home.

89
00:04:00,299 --> 00:04:02,780
I'm afraid to close my eyes
and relive it all.

90
00:04:02,824 --> 00:04:05,304
And I just don't know
what to do.

91
00:04:06,697 --> 00:04:08,743
[sniffles]

92
00:04:17,447 --> 00:04:19,144
We have to find Emily.

93
00:04:19,188 --> 00:04:21,668
Before this killer
finds her first.

Good morning, Roy.
Good morning.

101
00:04:46,258 --> 00:04:47,390
Thought I'd bring you two

102
00:04:47,433 --> 00:04:48,434
a little fuel

103
00:04:48,478 --> 00:04:49,871
after pulling an all-nighter.

104
00:04:49,914 --> 00:04:51,394
Appreciate it.

105
00:04:51,437 --> 00:04:53,700
I had to force Tammy
to take a break.

106
00:04:53,744 --> 00:04:55,441
Well, I appreciate
you guys working all night.

107
00:04:55,485 --> 00:04:57,356
Any leads?
Yeah.

108
00:04:57,400 --> 00:05:00,707
Patton's, uh, tracking
her phone, credit cards.

109
00:05:00,751 --> 00:05:02,927
Nothing still. Sebastian
did a sweep of her house

110
00:05:02,971 --> 00:05:05,625
but didn't come up with
any unknown fingerprints or DNA.

111
00:05:05,669 --> 00:05:07,279
You thinking whoever
killed Amanda Gregson

112
00:05:07,323 --> 00:05:09,020
went after Emily next?

113
00:05:09,064 --> 00:05:10,717
Amanda was her therapist.
She was probably

114
00:05:10,761 --> 00:05:12,763
the only other person
that knew about her assault.

115
00:05:12,807 --> 00:05:14,896
The rapist had a motive

116
00:05:14,939 --> 00:05:16,854
to go after both of them.
Yeah, maybe.

117
00:05:16,898 --> 00:05:20,597
But Emily never told Amanda

118
00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:23,165
the name of her assaulter.
Yeah,

119
00:05:23,208 --> 00:05:25,210
but the suspect doesn't know that.
That's true.

120
00:05:25,254 --> 00:05:27,647
Didn't Amanda note in her
files that Emily was attacked

121
00:05:27,691 --> 00:05:29,301
by a coworker?
There are about

122
00:05:29,345 --> 00:05:32,043
a dozen men workingon the
Drone project with Emily.

123
00:05:32,087 --> 00:05:33,305
Checked their records?

124
00:05:33,349 --> 00:05:35,873
All clean. However,

125
00:05:35,917 --> 00:05:38,745
there were several sailors
that were out

126
00:05:38,789 --> 00:05:40,225
the night that Amanda was killed.

127
00:05:40,269 --> 00:05:41,661
Partying in the Marigny.

128
00:05:42,706 --> 00:05:43,881
PRIDE:The Marigny's

129
00:05:43,925 --> 00:05:45,404
only a mile from where
Amanda was murdered.

130
00:05:45,448 --> 00:05:48,451
Yeah. If he knew
where Amanda was gonna be,

131
00:05:48,494 --> 00:05:50,583
he could've planned
the outing as a cover.

132
00:05:50,627 --> 00:05:52,194
Slip away from the group.

133
00:05:52,237 --> 00:05:55,066
Track Amanda.
Dose her and stab her.
Then make it back

134
00:05:55,110 --> 00:05:57,025
in time for shots at the bar.
According to Fiona,

135
00:05:57,068 --> 00:06:00,071
we know the attacker was white.

136
00:06:00,115 --> 00:06:03,031
That nixes Petty Officers
Theo Desmond and Angelo Coleman.

and Jaxson Freeh.

00:06:06,556 --> 00:06:08,253
Let's get their photos to Fiona.

139
00:06:08,297 --> 00:06:09,907
She might recognize
one of them.

140
00:06:09,951 --> 00:06:12,170
I'll get them over to Sebastian.
He can swing by the bar.

141
00:06:14,477 --> 00:06:17,132
[indistinct chatter]

142
00:06:20,962 --> 00:06:23,921
Looks like you got a pretty
efficient system here. [chuckles]

143
00:06:23,965 --> 00:06:25,575
Pride's been keeping me busy.

144
00:06:25,618 --> 00:06:27,055
Next delivery is in 30 minutes,

145
00:06:27,098 --> 00:06:28,795
and I still have
20 more to pack.

146
00:06:28,839 --> 00:06:30,536
Oh, well, in that case,

147
00:06:30,580 --> 00:06:32,538
four hands are better than two.
Oh, no,you-you don't have to...

148
00:06:32,582 --> 00:06:34,366
No, it's all right.

149
00:06:35,585 --> 00:06:38,370
Looks like you've, uh,
settled in here.

150
00:06:38,414 --> 00:06:40,720
Dr. Wade's beena wonderful landlady.

151
00:06:40,764 --> 00:06:42,722
And I never dreamed
of getting custody

152
00:06:42,766 --> 00:06:43,941
of my daughter back so soon.

153
00:06:43,985 --> 00:06:45,551
It's all because of you.

154
00:06:46,726 --> 00:06:49,599
I don't know how to say thank you.
[chuckles] You don't have to. It was...

155
00:06:49,642 --> 00:06:50,861
it was my pleasure.

156
00:06:51,862 --> 00:06:53,124
I'm assumingyou didn't come here

157
00:06:53,168 --> 00:06:54,647
because you love to pack boxes.

158
00:06:54,691 --> 00:06:55,953
I love packing boxes.

159
00:06:55,997 --> 00:06:57,259
[chuckles]
But, actually, no,

160
00:06:57,302 --> 00:06:58,347
I did come here to
see if you could

161
00:06:58,390 --> 00:06:59,478
help us out on this case.

162
00:06:59,522 --> 00:07:01,524
I have some photos to show you.
Oh.

163
00:07:01,567 --> 00:07:04,614
Do you recognize either of
these men from that night?

164
00:07:04,657 --> 00:07:07,399
I mean, maybe.

165
00:07:09,140 --> 00:07:12,274
I mean, maybe.
I'm, uh... I'm just not sure.

166
00:07:12,317 --> 00:07:14,972
I'm sorry you had to waste a trip out.
Oh, it's not a waste.

167
00:07:15,016 --> 00:07:16,060

168

HANNAH: <i>
Petty Officer</i>

170
00:07:21,022 --> 00:07:22,893
Liam McCall has a spotless record.

171
00:07:22,937 --> 00:07:25,722
Jaxson Freeh, on the other hand,
has some minor infractions.

172
00:07:25,765 --> 00:07:27,028
Alerted the master-at-arms to
keep an eye on them.

173
00:07:27,071 --> 00:07:28,420
If either of them try
to leave Belle Chasse,

174
00:07:28,464 --> 00:07:29,465
we'll hear about it.

175
00:07:29,508 --> 00:07:31,423
Should we question them?
Not yet.

176
00:07:31,467 --> 00:07:33,295
Tammy and Pride are talking
to the other two sailors

177
00:07:33,338 --> 00:07:35,036
who were with them that night.
See if they can poke some holes

178
00:07:35,079 --> 00:07:37,908
in their alibi.You really think
one of these guys is our killer?

179
00:07:38,909 --> 00:07:40,302
I'm starting to.

180
00:07:40,345 --> 00:07:42,304
I hope I'm not interrupting.

181
00:07:42,347 --> 00:07:44,654
Thought you had a flight.

182
00:07:44,697 --> 00:07:47,309
I did, but I changed it.

183
00:07:47,352 --> 00:07:50,051
Do you still likeyour cappuccino dry?

184
00:07:53,619 --> 00:07:56,013
Not sure it was worth changing
your flight to come back here.

185
00:07:56,057 --> 00:07:57,797
I've said everything
I have to say.

186
00:07:57,841 --> 00:07:59,408
And I couldn't stop
thinking about it.

187
00:07:59,451 --> 00:08:01,758
I couldn't sleep at all.

188
00:08:01,801 --> 00:08:03,847
The fact that you
lied to us for years,

189
00:08:03,890 --> 00:08:06,763
that you got a DUI for
something your brother did.

190
00:08:06,806 --> 00:08:08,286
Look, we've been through this.

191
00:08:08,330 --> 00:08:09,548
Just let me finish.

192
00:08:09,592 --> 00:08:10,985
What kept me up,

193
00:08:11,028 --> 00:08:13,465
what made me want
to change my flight...

194
00:08:14,989 --> 00:08:17,948
You sacrificed everything
for Brennan.

195
00:08:17,992 --> 00:08:19,689
Come on, I was a kid.

196
00:08:19,732 --> 00:08:21,517
I didn't have that much to give up.
You didn't even

197
00:08:21,560 --> 00:08:23,954
think twice about it.

198
00:08:23,998 --> 00:08:25,564
I didn't realize years later,

199
00:08:25,608 --> 00:08:28,263
you'd be up for confirmation
in front of Congress, so...

200
00:08:28,306 --> 00:08:30,830
[chuckles]
Please.

201
00:08:34,356 --> 00:08:36,575
The FBI is thorough
in their vetting process.

202
00:08:36,619 --> 00:08:37,924
They're gonna find
the red light photo

203
00:08:37,968 --> 00:08:39,665
that shows Brennan driving,
not me.

204
00:08:39,709 --> 00:08:41,232
They could.
Lying as a teenager's

205
00:08:41,276 --> 00:08:42,799
one thing,
but lying under oath...

206
00:08:42,842 --> 00:08:43,974
And if we come clean,

207
00:08:44,018 --> 00:08:45,976
it could ruin
your brother's career.

208
00:08:46,020 --> 00:08:47,847
And if we don't,
it'll derail your confirmation

209
00:08:47,891 --> 00:08:49,458
and ruin your career.

210
00:08:49,501 --> 00:08:51,416
So, you're just gonna
ignore the FBI?

211
00:08:51,460 --> 00:08:54,637
Think it's the best bad option.

212
00:08:54,680 --> 00:08:58,032
[sighs]
There has to be another way.

213
00:08:59,076 --> 00:09:02,340
Look, it's your job
on the line.

214
00:09:02,384 --> 00:09:04,473
I'll do whatever
you think is best.

215
00:09:04,516 --> 00:09:07,128
We need to talk to Brennan.

216
00:09:07,171 --> 00:09:09,652
He's got to have a say in this.
All right.

217
00:09:09,695 --> 00:09:11,871
But let me talk to him first.
Okay.

218
00:09:11,915 --> 00:09:14,004
But, Quentin,

219
00:09:14,048 --> 00:09:16,354
don't keep me
out of the loop anymore.

220
00:09:16,398 --> 00:09:19,053
We're in this together.

THEO: <i>
Not quite sure what the big deal is.</i>

222
00:09:23,709 --> 00:09:25,885
Few of us went out drinking,
let off some steam.

223
00:09:25,929 --> 00:09:27,713
In the Marigny
two nights ago, right?

224
00:09:27,757 --> 00:09:29,063
Partying on a Tuesday
illegal now?

225
00:09:29,106 --> 00:09:31,021
Depends.
PRIDE: <i>What kind of partying?</i>

226
00:09:31,065 --> 00:09:32,675
Only supposed to have
a couple beers,

227
00:09:32,718 --> 00:09:34,372
but we got ambitious,

228
00:09:34,416 --> 00:09:35,721
and the night
got away from us.

229
00:09:35,765 --> 00:09:37,549
Got away from you how?

230
00:09:37,593 --> 00:09:40,248
We hit the strip club.
Spent a month's pay.

231
00:09:40,291 --> 00:09:41,945
Had some fun. But we were

00:09:41,988 --> 00:09:43,860
respectful and courteous.

233
00:09:43,903 --> 00:09:45,905
I'm sure the strippers
were impressed.

234
00:09:45,949 --> 00:09:46,993
But not everyone had fun

235
00:09:47,037 --> 00:09:48,517
that night, did they?

236
00:09:48,560 --> 00:09:49,866
What are you talking about?

237
00:09:49,909 --> 00:09:52,086
Well, one of your friends
slipped away, right?

238
00:09:53,087 --> 00:09:55,219
Hard to say.
Is it, though?

242
00:10:00,529 --> 00:10:01,921
Maybe.
But what

243
00:10:01,965 --> 00:10:04,750
I don't know
is which one of your friends

244
00:10:04,794 --> 00:10:06,448
did you lose track of
that night?

245
00:10:06,491 --> 00:10:07,710
It was a long night,

246
00:10:07,753 --> 00:10:10,234
but we were together
the whole time.

247

You sound confident.

It's not a complicated question.
I wonder

if your buddy outside

250
00:10:15,196 --> 00:10:17,111
feels that same kind
of confidence,

251
00:10:17,154 --> 00:10:19,548
because if he says a
different story than you,

252
00:10:19,591 --> 00:10:21,724
it's gonna put you

Hey. Any luck tracking down
Emily Tascioni?

323
00:12:56,531 --> 00:12:59,795
Nada. No ping on the cell phone,
no activity on the credit cards.

324
00:12:59,838 --> 00:13:02,145
I'm hoping that's because
she's being smart on the run.

325
00:13:02,188 --> 00:13:04,278
Think there's a chance
that Liam found her first?

Not since we've been
keeping an eye on him.

He's been stuck
at Belle Chasse all day.

You gonna pick him up?
We don't have enough on him.

Other than him not being liked

what I have is useful so far.

Liam McCall.

Petty Officer First Class.

335
00:13:19,467 --> 00:13:20,859
Ten years in the Navy,
and he's been

336
00:13:20,903 --> 00:13:22,339
at Belle Chasse for six months.

337

Working alongside Emily
on a long-range tactical drone.

What about before that?

339

Bounced around a lot

Short-term assignments?

Less than a year at each one.

343
00:13:33,916 --> 00:13:35,831
That's unusual.

344
00:13:35,874 --> 00:13:37,223
I spoke to one of his old COs.

345
00:13:37,267 --> 00:13:38,747
They considered him
a ladies' man.

That's one way to put it.

Nah, just a lot
of transfers.

349
00:13:43,447 --> 00:13:46,145
Could fit a pattern
of bad behavior.

That's what our murder victim,

Amanda Gregson,
was trying to do.

354
00:13:53,414 --> 00:13:55,633
And since Emily felt
uncomfortable stepping forward,

355
00:13:55,677 --> 00:13:57,374
if you can't arrest him,

356

make him somebody else's
problem, right?

I'm gonna keep
looking for Emily.

out to dinner a few weeks ago.

I'm sorry.
Did Emily tell you that?

'Cause I'm the one who should be
filing a complaint.

And why is that?

That dinner was two hours

That's not how we heard it.

Oh, so did she file a complaint?

We're not at liberty to...
I know she didn't.

417

If she had, you'd be compelled
to take me with you,

but you're not, are you?

Well, since you drove
all this way,

I'll tell you what happened.
We met at the restaurant.

I'm glad you liked the brisket.

But I haven't seen her
since I left with Rory's dad.

Over four years ago now.

I can't even remember the last
time I spoke with my mother.

Oh, you should reach out.

00:17:05,823 --> 00:17:08,478
Uh... it's complicated.

441
00:17:08,522 --> 00:17:10,698
She never understood why
I came here in the first place,

Rory all by myself.

00:17:15,441 --> 00:17:19,620
she was born, she might
reach out, but she didn't, so...Mm.

445
00:17:19,663 --> 00:17:21,926
Well, if it's important
to restore the relationship,

to make the first move.

his next concert in the park.

It's terrifying.

of that big of an audience.

the girl out on a proper date?

00:17:54,437 --> 00:17:56,613
What? What? Where
is this coming from?

459
00:17:56,657 --> 00:17:58,049
Sebastian, read the room.

00:17:58,093 --> 00:18:00,051
You've been eyeing
each other all night.

00:18:00,095 --> 00:18:01,966
I just... I don't want
her to feel pressured

462
00:18:02,010 --> 00:18:03,881
'cause I helped
her out, you know.

463
00:18:03,925 --> 00:18:06,275
She's a grown woman
with a child.

464
00:18:06,318 --> 00:18:09,191
She's perfectly capable
of making a decision.

00:18:09,234 --> 00:18:12,934
And you certainly need
to make a move here.

00:18:40,265 --> 00:18:41,658
Hurts women to feel powerful.

476
00:18:41,702 --> 00:18:43,094
He thinks he wants power,

477
00:18:43,138 --> 00:18:44,879
but what he really wants
is respect.

478
00:18:44,922 --> 00:18:47,533
That requires admiration,

479
00:18:47,577 --> 00:18:48,926
which is hard
to come by.

480
00:18:48,970 --> 00:18:51,407
Exactly, so he gets mad,
and he takes that rage,

481
00:18:51,450 --> 00:18:53,191
and he directs it at the people
he thinks are responsible.

482
00:18:53,235 --> 00:18:54,845
Like Emily Tascioni.

483
00:18:54,889 --> 00:18:56,804
Emily was just a stand-in
for all the other women

484
00:18:56,847 --> 00:18:58,588
in his life
who have disrespected him,

485
00:18:58,632 --> 00:19:00,590
and she wasn't the first.

486
00:19:00,634 --> 00:19:03,637
Patton dug into Liam's
pre-Navy history.

487
00:19:03,680 --> 00:19:06,291
He was accused of sexual
assault in college.

488
00:19:06,335 --> 00:19:08,250
Charges were never prosecuted,

489
00:19:08,293 --> 00:19:09,947
and the victim wouldn't testify.

490
00:19:09,991 --> 00:19:11,470
Any other accusations?

491
00:19:11,514 --> 00:19:13,951
Navy record was spotless.

492
00:19:13,995 --> 00:19:16,301
That's military culture.

493
00:19:16,345 --> 00:19:17,694
He knew women wouldn't

494
00:19:17,738 --> 00:19:19,957
put their career
on the line to come forward.

495
00:19:20,001 --> 00:19:22,743
Especially in cases where
it's he said, she said.

496
00:19:22,786 --> 00:19:24,745
And what happened
to Emily wasn't a fluke.

497
00:19:24,788 --> 00:19:28,357
It's a pattern.
It will happen again.
Unless we stop it.

498
00:19:28,400 --> 00:19:29,663
PATTON:
King? Yeah.

499
00:19:29,706 --> 00:19:30,925
Got a lead on Emily, but I don't

500
00:19:30,968 --> 00:19:31,969
think you're gonna like it.

501
00:19:32,013 --> 00:19:33,754
What'd you find?

502
00:19:33,797 --> 00:19:36,147
Park ranger reported
her car parked overnight

503
00:19:36,191 --> 00:19:38,802
near the Cameron Prairie
Wildlife Preserve.

504
00:19:38,846 --> 00:19:40,804
It's a good place to hide out.

505
00:19:40,848 --> 00:19:43,720
Or to dump a body.

506
00:19:48,116 --> 00:19:50,509
Ranger says
this is overflow parking.

507
00:19:50,553 --> 00:19:52,729
Been shut down
for a couple months.

508
00:19:52,773 --> 00:19:54,252
Any of them
check the car?

509
00:19:54,296 --> 00:19:55,993
No, they stayed back
until we got here.

510
00:19:56,037 --> 00:19:58,169
Okay.

511
00:20:00,606 --> 00:20:03,044
Tinted windows.

512
00:20:03,087 --> 00:20:06,961
Can't see a damn thing.
Hello?

513
00:20:07,004 --> 00:20:08,702
NCIS!

514
00:20:08,745 --> 00:20:10,878
Emily?

515
00:20:10,921 --> 00:20:14,098
I got a bad feeling, Pride.

516
00:20:31,028 --> 00:20:32,508
It's empty.

517
00:20:32,551 --> 00:20:35,990
[gun clicks]
Who the hell are you?

518
00:20:36,033 --> 00:20:38,557
We're NCIS.

519
00:20:38,601 --> 00:20:39,820
GREGORIO:
We know about Liam.

520
00:20:39,863 --> 00:20:40,951
We're here to help.

521
00:20:41,996 --> 00:20:43,301
But first,

522
00:20:43,345 --> 00:20:45,564
we need you
to put the gun down.

523
00:21:01,363 --> 00:21:03,713
I felt wrong ever since I told
Amanda what happened to me.

524
00:21:03,757 --> 00:21:05,280
Wrong how?

525
00:21:05,323 --> 00:21:06,716
Something in my gut.

526
00:21:06,760 --> 00:21:09,284
I knew Liam was capable
of horrible things.

527
00:21:09,327 --> 00:21:11,982
And I knew she wasn't
gonna let this go.

528
00:21:12,026 --> 00:21:14,724
Then I heard
Amanda was murdered.

529
00:21:14,768 --> 00:21:16,030
So you ran?

530
00:21:16,073 --> 00:21:18,119
Not at first.

531
00:21:18,162 --> 00:21:21,122
I thought about calling NCIS,
telling you what happened,

532
00:21:21,165 --> 00:21:23,820
but he knows where I live.
I knew I wasn't safe.

533
00:21:23,864 --> 00:21:26,518
You've been here two days?
No.

534
00:21:26,562 --> 00:21:28,782
I keep moving. I don't want
to be in one place for too long,

535
00:21:28,825 --> 00:21:30,522
'cause he can
track me down.

536
00:21:30,566 --> 00:21:33,351
Well, you're safe now, and
it's gonna stay that way.

537
00:21:34,526 --> 00:21:36,833
Liam McCall won't hurt you.

538
00:21:36,877 --> 00:21:38,879
You arrested him?

539
00:21:38,922 --> 00:21:39,880
We're working on it.

540
00:21:39,923 --> 00:21:41,882
Then you can't promise me

541
00:21:41,925 --> 00:21:44,493
that I'm safe.
We can if you help us.

542
00:21:44,536 --> 00:21:45,799
Help you how?

543
00:21:45,842 --> 00:21:47,757
Go on record
about what Liam did to you.

544
00:21:47,801 --> 00:21:51,065
No. Look what happened
to the last person I told.

545
00:21:51,108 --> 00:21:54,459
Amanda didn't even have all
the details. I did that to her.

546
00:21:54,503 --> 00:21:56,984
No.

547
00:21:57,027 --> 00:21:59,682
Liam McCall did that to her.

548
00:21:59,725 --> 00:22:02,076
He'll do it to me, too.

549
00:22:02,119 --> 00:22:03,773
We won't let that happen.

550
00:22:03,817 --> 00:22:06,080
PRIDE:
You've got two choices.

551
00:22:06,123 --> 00:22:07,995
You can keep on running,

552
00:22:08,038 --> 00:22:10,084
always looking over
your shoulder.

553
00:22:10,127 --> 00:22:12,086
GREGORIO:
Or you can come with us

554
00:22:12,129 --> 00:22:15,829
and help us stop Liam McCall
from ever hurting a woman again.

555
00:22:21,138 --> 00:22:24,272
Hey. Emily's set
up in a hotel.

556
00:22:24,315 --> 00:22:26,448
Officers are rotating
in shifts throughout the night.

557
00:22:26,491 --> 00:22:28,363
Keep her safe.
All right, great.

558
00:22:28,406 --> 00:22:29,712
Hopefully now she'll get
a full night's sleep.

559
00:22:29,755 --> 00:22:31,627
Pride sent over her statement?
Yeah.

560
00:22:31,670 --> 00:22:33,063
But it's nothing we didn't
already know.

561
00:22:33,107 --> 00:22:34,282
At least now it's
on the record, though.

562
00:22:34,325 --> 00:22:36,327
This happened a month ago.

563
00:22:36,371 --> 00:22:38,939
She didn't have a rape kit
done at urgent care.

564
00:22:38,982 --> 00:22:40,375
She didn't tell any friends.

565
00:22:40,418 --> 00:22:41,855
So it's her word against his?

566
00:22:43,944 --> 00:22:46,337
Might have problems making
sexual assault charges stick.

567
00:22:46,381 --> 00:22:48,905
No. But murder is still
on the table.

568
00:22:48,949 --> 00:22:51,908
Emily's statement might be
enough to get us a warrant

569
00:22:51,952 --> 00:22:53,388
for Liam's house and car.

570
00:22:53,431 --> 00:22:55,129
I'll start making some calls.

571
00:22:55,172 --> 00:22:56,695
Okay.

572
00:23:00,003 --> 00:23:03,180
I will never forget the look
on Judge Randall's face

573
00:23:03,224 --> 00:23:06,792
when you told him where
he could shove that gavel.

574
00:23:06,836 --> 00:23:07,881
Whoa.
[laughter]

575
00:23:07,924 --> 00:23:09,143
You laugh,

576
00:23:09,186 --> 00:23:11,710
but I barely avoided
a contempt charge.

577
00:23:11,754 --> 00:23:13,147
Ate crow for months.

578
00:23:13,190 --> 00:23:14,844
LYNETTE:
It was worth it.

579
00:23:14,888 --> 00:23:18,500
I never get the opportunity to
vent like that in the Pentagon.

580
00:23:18,543 --> 00:23:19,849
Well, maybe that will change
when you're

581
00:23:19,893 --> 00:23:21,024
Under Secretary of the Navy.

582
00:23:21,068 --> 00:23:22,591
I don't think I'll
find that out.

583
00:23:22,634 --> 00:23:24,245
I'm withdrawing my name.

584
00:23:24,288 --> 00:23:26,943
You're what?

585
00:23:26,987 --> 00:23:29,554
But they already started the confirmation.
I changed my mind.

586
00:23:29,598 --> 00:23:31,339
The process is too intrusive.

587
00:23:31,382 --> 00:23:34,081
I'm actually considering going
into the private sector.

588
00:23:34,124 --> 00:23:35,560
Oh, you'll get flooded
with offers.

589
00:23:35,604 --> 00:23:37,693
Mm.But you wanted this job.

590
00:23:37,736 --> 00:23:39,521
You're just, what, giving up?

591
00:23:39,564 --> 00:23:42,872
Quentin, we're guests here.
This conversation can wait.

592
00:23:42,916 --> 00:23:45,483
No, no.

593
00:23:45,527 --> 00:23:47,659
No, it can't.

594
00:23:47,703 --> 00:23:49,835
You're doing this to
protect Brennan, aren't you?

595
00:23:49,879 --> 00:23:53,230
I am doing this because a mother
sacrifices for her children.

596
00:23:53,274 --> 00:23:55,406
I'm gonna go open
some more wine. Excuse me.

597
00:23:55,450 --> 00:23:57,060
And I'm gonna get the dessert.

598
00:23:59,062 --> 00:24:00,542
I've made my decision.

599
00:24:00,585 --> 00:24:03,588
So you're sacrificing your
career to prove a point.
Yes.

600
00:24:03,632 --> 00:24:05,155
It's a mother's responsibility.

601
00:24:05,199 --> 00:24:07,157
Brennan is an adult.

602
00:24:07,201 --> 00:24:09,551
He can take responsibility
for his own actions.

603
00:24:09,594 --> 00:24:11,161
This isn't just about Brennan.

604
00:24:12,989 --> 00:24:15,426
Thank you for dinner.
It was really delicious.

605
00:24:15,470 --> 00:24:17,994
Appreciate it.

606

00:24:22,346 --> 00:24:24,174
Somebody mention more wine?

[TV playing indistinctly]

610
00:24:26,394 --> 00:24:27,873
Try me again. This time...

611
00:24:27,917 --> 00:24:29,614
It's gonna work this time,
I promise.
Okay.

612
00:24:29,658 --> 00:24:31,399
Ready?
Yeah.

613
00:24:31,442 --> 00:24:33,923
[laughing]:

614
00:24:33,967 --> 00:24:36,143
It was right there.
I'm, ah... Mm.

615
00:24:36,186 --> 00:24:39,668
So much for being your
high school champion.
I promise that I was.

616
00:24:39,711 --> 00:24:41,104
I'm not making it up.
It was in my yearbook.

617
00:24:41,148 --> 00:24:42,888
Oh, sure, okay.

618
00:24:42,932 --> 00:24:44,499
Mm.

619
00:24:44,542 --> 00:24:46,066
Well, everyone knows it's easier
when you throw it to yourself.

620
00:24:46,109 --> 00:24:47,458
Mm. Sure. Yeah.It's ridiculous.

621
00:24:47,502 --> 00:24:48,633
Keep telling yourself that.

622
00:24:48,677 --> 00:24:50,592
[laughs]

623
00:24:50,635 --> 00:24:54,465
So I was kind of surprised
that you asked me out tonight.

624
00:24:54,509 --> 00:24:56,859
Like a, like a good surprise
or a bad surprise?

625
00:24:56,902 --> 00:24:59,383
Well, I asked Dr. Wade
to babysit.
Mm-hmm.

626
00:24:59,427 --> 00:25:01,168
I showered.
Nice.

627
00:25:01,211 --> 00:25:03,605
I drove here.
Um, now we're watching... Mm-hmm.

628
00:25:03,648 --> 00:25:07,522
...whatever this is.
SEBASTIAN: Modern classic.

629
00:25:07,565 --> 00:25:10,481
So I'll let you
fill in the blanks.

630
00:25:11,787 --> 00:25:13,093
You want me to
fill in the blanks?

631
00:25:13,136 --> 00:25:14,833
I'm not great at that.

632
00:25:14,877 --> 00:25:16,183
I feel like there's too many
possibilities, you know what I mean?

633
00:25:16,226 --> 00:25:19,012
Like when I get a Mad Lib
put in front of me, I...

634
00:25:22,102 --> 00:25:24,147
Does that answer your question?

635
00:25:24,191 --> 00:25:27,237
Um, I'm not sure.

636
00:25:27,281 --> 00:25:29,500
I feel like it needs
to be answered again.

637
00:25:33,722 --> 00:25:36,333
HANNAH: So, how was dinner last night?
CARTER: Fine.

638
00:25:36,377 --> 00:25:38,292
Went that well?

639
00:25:38,335 --> 00:25:41,034
Let's just say it reminded me
why I joined the Marine Corps

640
00:25:41,077 --> 00:25:42,861
and stopped going
to family events.

641
00:25:42,905 --> 00:25:44,776
[doorbell rings]

642
00:25:49,477 --> 00:25:51,870
Okay, now this is bordering
on harassment.

643
00:25:51,914 --> 00:25:53,263
We brought you a present.

644
00:25:53,307 --> 00:25:54,525
We're gonna be searching
your house and your vehicle,

645
00:25:54,569 --> 00:25:57,354
so step aside.
Absolutely not.

646
00:25:57,398 --> 00:25:59,139
Okay, well, we could cuff you
and you could watch

647
00:25:59,182 --> 00:26:01,750
from the back of our car;
it's your choice.

648
00:26:04,666 --> 00:26:05,710
[sighs]

649
00:26:07,799 --> 00:26:09,627
I told you we weren't done yet.

650
00:26:22,988 --> 00:26:26,601
How about those fireworks
last night?

651
00:26:26,644 --> 00:26:28,124
Yeah, sorry about that.

652
00:26:28,168 --> 00:26:29,430
Didn't intend to air my family's

653
00:26:29,473 --> 00:26:32,041
dirty laundry out over dinner.
Families fight.

654
00:26:32,085 --> 00:26:33,564
It happens.

655
00:26:33,608 --> 00:26:36,263
That woman is stubborn as a mule.
Maybe.

656
00:26:36,306 --> 00:26:38,787
But she also seems like
a woman

657
00:26:38,830 --> 00:26:40,484
who'd do anything
for her kids.

658
00:26:40,528 --> 00:26:41,964
Yeah, at least one of 'em.

659
00:26:43,226 --> 00:26:44,923
You upset because
she's stepping down

660
00:26:44,967 --> 00:26:49,058
or because you think she's only
doing it for your brother?

661
00:26:49,102 --> 00:26:51,147
PATTON: Hey, King.
Seems like our boy Liam

662
00:26:51,191 --> 00:26:53,410
liked playing on the dark web.

663
00:26:53,454 --> 00:26:56,370
Spent serious Bitcoin to buy
drugs from South Africa.

664
00:26:56,413 --> 00:26:57,719
Methaqualone.

665
00:26:57,762 --> 00:26:58,850
You know, I'd never heard of it
until this case.

666
00:26:58,894 --> 00:27:00,635
PATTON:
Quaaludes, my friend.

667
00:27:00,678 --> 00:27:02,158
Disco biscuits.

668
00:27:02,202 --> 00:27:05,205
They were the drug of choice
long before you was born.

669
00:27:05,248 --> 00:27:06,902
They banned 'em, like,
30 years ago.

670
00:27:06,945 --> 00:27:08,904
PRIDE:According to Amanda's
tox report,

671
00:27:08,947 --> 00:27:11,950
she had traces of methaqualone
in her system when she died.

672
00:27:11,994 --> 00:27:14,214
Probably the same drug
he used on Emily, too.

673
00:27:14,257 --> 00:27:17,173
Yeah. That's good work, P.
Keep on digging.

674
00:27:17,217 --> 00:27:18,174
I'm on it.

675
00:27:22,787 --> 00:27:24,572
[chuckles]

676
00:27:27,705 --> 00:27:29,577
GREGORIO:
How was last night?

677
00:27:30,969 --> 00:27:32,057
Emily?

678
00:27:34,059 --> 00:27:37,759
Sorry. I just...You're safe now.

679
00:27:37,802 --> 00:27:40,588
We've got officers posted 24/7.

680
00:27:40,631 --> 00:27:42,155
Physically, yeah.

681
00:27:42,198 --> 00:27:44,983
But in here...

682
00:27:45,027 --> 00:27:47,769
I can't stay asleep,
and when I do, I dream.

683
00:27:47,812 --> 00:27:49,510
PTSS.

684
00:27:49,553 --> 00:27:52,382
Wouldn't be surprising after
everything you've been through.

685
00:27:52,426 --> 00:27:54,906
When I'm awake,
it's no better.

686
00:27:54,950 --> 00:27:56,604
A living nightmare.

687
00:27:56,647 --> 00:27:59,259
Well, if it's any consolation,

688
00:27:59,302 --> 00:28:02,000
your CO agreed to drop
any UA charges,

689
00:28:02,044 --> 00:28:04,089
so you can go back to work
when you're ready.

690
00:28:04,133 --> 00:28:07,223
That's good, right?
I'm not sure I'll ever be ready.

691
00:28:08,920 --> 00:28:10,705
You will.

692
00:28:10,748 --> 00:28:13,360
I know it feels
hopeless right now.

693
00:28:13,403 --> 00:28:15,666
It's gonna take a lot
of time and energy

694
00:28:15,710 --> 00:28:18,626
to even feel halfway normal,
but you got to try.

695
00:28:18,669 --> 00:28:21,455
You got to look to
your future, sweetheart.

696
00:28:21,498 --> 00:28:25,459
Maybe I can give it a shot when
you tell me he's behind bars.

697
00:28:25,502 --> 00:28:28,375
We're doing everything
we can, Emily.

698
00:28:29,941 --> 00:28:33,075
Actually, I was hoping to
get your thoughts on something.

699
00:28:33,118 --> 00:28:34,903
I already told you everything.

700
00:28:34,946 --> 00:28:36,644
No, it's not about that night,
it's about Liam's friends.

701
00:28:36,687 --> 00:28:39,299
Jaxson, Theo, Angelo.
They're tight, right?

702
00:28:39,342 --> 00:28:42,737
Liam showed up six months ago
and they flocked to him.

703
00:28:42,780 --> 00:28:44,434
Real alpha energy.

704
00:28:44,478 --> 00:28:46,567
Any of 'em ever show
any backbone?

705
00:28:46,610 --> 00:28:48,743
Bristle at his control?

706
00:28:48,786 --> 00:28:50,397
I don't understand.

707
00:28:50,440 --> 00:28:54,270
In order to prove that
Liam had the opportunity

708
00:28:54,314 --> 00:28:57,665
to kill Amanda, we have to
poke a hole in his alibi.

709
00:29:01,538 --> 00:29:02,931
Look at Angelo.

710
00:29:02,974 --> 00:29:05,586
I always got the sense
he didn't care for Liam

711
00:29:05,629 --> 00:29:06,804
as much as the others.

712
00:29:06,848 --> 00:29:09,111
Good.

713
00:29:11,461 --> 00:29:14,421
Petty Officer Coleman.

714
00:29:14,464 --> 00:29:16,074
Oh, come on,
I'm with my kid.

715
00:29:16,118 --> 00:29:17,293
CARTER:
Yeah, he looks like a good kid.

716
00:29:17,337 --> 00:29:19,948
I already talked
to the other guy.

717
00:29:19,991 --> 00:29:22,080
Yeah, you told him
you didn't want to

718
00:29:22,124 --> 00:29:23,560
jam anyone up.

719
00:29:23,604 --> 00:29:25,475
Do you even know
what Liam did?

720
00:29:25,519 --> 00:29:27,042
Some misunderstanding
with Emily Tascioni.

721
00:29:27,085 --> 00:29:30,741
NCIS doesn't investigate
misunderstandings.

722
00:29:30,785 --> 00:29:33,483
Liam's gonna be charged
with rape and murder.

723
00:29:33,527 --> 00:29:34,963
What are you talking about?

724
00:29:35,006 --> 00:29:36,834
I heard Emily is okay.

725
00:29:36,878 --> 00:29:39,315
Emily's <i>alive.
Okay is another matter.</i>

726
00:29:39,359 --> 00:29:41,274
Now, in order to
cover up his rape,

727
00:29:41,317 --> 00:29:43,624
Liam stabbed a Navy therapist

728
00:29:43,667 --> 00:29:45,495
on the night that
he was out with you.

729
00:29:45,539 --> 00:29:47,541
[scoffs] You can't know that
for sure because I...

730
00:29:47,584 --> 00:29:49,107
We do.

731
00:29:49,151 --> 00:29:52,154
And we're gonna prove it.
And you're gonna help.

732
00:29:52,197 --> 00:29:54,765
I told you everything I know.
Yeah.

733
00:29:54,809 --> 00:29:56,201
You guys went out to the club,

734
00:29:56,245 --> 00:29:57,725
Liam was with you
all night long.

735
00:29:57,768 --> 00:30:00,162
He drove us there,
he drove us back.

736
00:30:01,642 --> 00:30:04,166
Look, I can tell you that
lying makes you an accessory,

737
00:30:04,209 --> 00:30:05,950
that you could get
into deep trouble.

738
00:30:05,994 --> 00:30:08,170
But if I were you,

739
00:30:08,213 --> 00:30:10,215
I would think more
about my boy.

740
00:30:10,259 --> 00:30:12,522
What kind of example
I want to set for him.

741
00:30:12,566 --> 00:30:15,656
What kind of man I want him
to grow up to be.

742
00:30:15,699 --> 00:30:18,920
[sighs]
I want to help you, but I can't.

743
00:30:18,963 --> 00:30:20,269
All he needed
was 30 minutes.

744
00:30:20,313 --> 00:30:22,097
Maybe he went out
to have a smoke,

745
00:30:22,140 --> 00:30:24,099
take a long bathroom trip.

746
00:30:30,453 --> 00:30:34,022
A dance in the champagne room.

747
00:30:34,065 --> 00:30:36,503
He was gone for a while.

748
00:30:36,546 --> 00:30:38,809
I thought Liam was banned
from private dances.

749
00:30:38,853 --> 00:30:40,942
That's what I thought, too.

750
00:30:42,509 --> 00:30:44,859
What was so urgent, Sebastian?

751
00:30:44,902 --> 00:30:47,514
So, if Liam drove
everyone to the club,

752
00:30:47,557 --> 00:30:49,516
then he must have also
driven to the coffee shop

753
00:30:49,559 --> 00:30:50,517
to find Amanda, right?

754
00:30:50,560 --> 00:30:52,345
Right.

755
00:30:52,388 --> 00:30:54,216
It's the only way he could have
pulled it off in 30 minutes.

756
00:30:56,349 --> 00:30:57,828
You're thinking Liam tracked
some of Amanda's blood

757
00:30:57,872 --> 00:30:59,482
into his car?

758
00:30:59,526 --> 00:31:01,397
Well, when we checked the car,
it had been wiped clean.  Right.

759
00:31:01,441 --> 00:31:02,572
Then I started thinking,

760
00:31:02,616 --> 00:31:03,660
what are some of
the first things you do

761
00:31:03,704 --> 00:31:04,705
when you get in your car?

762
00:31:04,748 --> 00:31:07,011
Turn the ignition.
After that.

763
00:31:07,055 --> 00:31:09,057
Put it in gear.
Before that.

764
00:31:09,100 --> 00:31:10,754
Sebastian.

765
00:31:14,671 --> 00:31:16,891
Put on your seat belt.
Yeah.

766
00:31:16,934 --> 00:31:20,764
We found a biological sample
that matched Amanda's DNA.

767
00:31:22,679 --> 00:31:25,552
Amanda's blood inside
Liam's car?

768
00:31:25,595 --> 00:31:28,381
That is about as far from
circumstantial as you can get.

769
00:31:28,424 --> 00:31:30,426
Yeah.

770
00:31:30,470 --> 00:31:31,949
HANNAH: <i>
I thought you'd be happier</i>

771
00:31:31,993 --> 00:31:33,690
about nailing this
creep for murder.

772
00:31:33,734 --> 00:31:35,605
No, it's good, I just
keep thinking about Emily.

773
00:31:35,649 --> 00:31:36,911
She deserves closure.

774
00:31:36,954 --> 00:31:38,434
You want him on
the rape charge, too.

775
00:31:38,478 --> 00:31:40,131
GREGORIO:
I want him to admit what he did.

776
00:31:40,175 --> 00:31:43,134
Validate her experience,
and accept responsibility.

777
00:31:43,178 --> 00:31:45,441
That's a tall order.
Let's see what we can do.

778
00:31:48,749 --> 00:31:51,142
Well, here we go again.
What do you got this time?

779
00:31:51,186 --> 00:31:52,579
GREGORIO:
Liam McCall, you're under arrest

780
00:31:52,622 --> 00:31:54,407
for the murder
of Amanda Gregson.

781
00:31:54,450 --> 00:31:55,930
A-Are you kidding me?

782
00:31:55,973 --> 00:31:57,105
[grunts]

783
00:31:57,148 --> 00:31:58,454
You guys have got the wrong guy.

784
00:31:58,498 --> 00:32:00,195
Yeah?
I'm innocent.

785
00:32:11,249 --> 00:32:12,642
Oh, well, it's about time.

786
00:32:12,686 --> 00:32:14,557
I'll have you know, as
soon as I get out of here,

787
00:32:14,601 --> 00:32:16,341
I'm suing this
whole department.

788
00:32:16,385 --> 00:32:19,344
Y-You can't just drag
innocent people down here

789
00:32:19,388 --> 00:32:22,173
and try to bluff your
way to a confession.

790
00:32:22,217 --> 00:32:23,827
You think we're bluffing?

791
00:32:23,871 --> 00:32:26,177
You barely had enough evidence
for a search warrant,

792
00:32:26,221 --> 00:32:28,658
let alone convict me of murder.

793
00:32:28,702 --> 00:32:29,964
[chuckles]

794
00:32:30,007 --> 00:32:32,401
Something funny?

795
00:32:33,576 --> 00:32:36,231
You're not talking
like an innocent man.

796
00:32:36,274 --> 00:32:40,061
You're talking like a guilty man
who thinks he got away with it.

797
00:32:40,104 --> 00:32:41,497
[scoffs]

798
00:32:41,541 --> 00:32:44,761
Okay.
[clears throat]

799
00:32:44,805 --> 00:32:47,198
[sniffles]

800
00:32:47,242 --> 00:32:48,417
Here's a purchase order

801
00:32:48,461 --> 00:32:51,464
from South Africa
for methaqualone.

802
00:32:53,466 --> 00:32:55,250
Metha what?Amanda Gregson's
tox screen,

803
00:32:55,293 --> 00:32:58,819
which shows a high level
of methaqualone

804
00:32:58,862 --> 00:33:01,256
in her blood on the night
that she was killed.

805
00:33:01,299 --> 00:33:05,565
Emily Tascioni's statement
which details when and how

806
00:33:05,608 --> 00:33:07,088
you raped her.

807
00:33:09,264 --> 00:33:11,919
You think anyone's
gonna believe that?

808
00:33:15,313 --> 00:33:18,534
Angelo Coleman's statement,
your buddy,

809
00:33:18,578 --> 00:33:20,188
who refutes your alibi,

810
00:33:20,231 --> 00:33:22,364
says there was a period
of at least 30 minutes

811
00:33:22,407 --> 00:33:24,453
where you were unaccounted for.

812
00:33:24,497 --> 00:33:26,455
I was getting a private dance.

813
00:33:26,499 --> 00:33:29,545
Signed statements
from all of the dancers

814
00:33:29,589 --> 00:33:31,068
who worked that night,

815
00:33:31,112 --> 00:33:32,417
confirming that
none of them

816
00:33:32,461 --> 00:33:34,550
ever gave you a dance.

817
00:33:34,594 --> 00:33:36,334
Bunch of drug addicts
and whores.

818
00:33:36,378 --> 00:33:38,249
I'm a petty officer
with a spotless record.

819
00:33:38,293 --> 00:33:39,729
Here's the kicker.

820
00:33:39,773 --> 00:33:42,558
Traces of Amanda
Gregson's blood

821
00:33:42,602 --> 00:33:45,735
on your car's seat belt clip.

822
00:33:46,910 --> 00:33:48,869
No. No, that's impossible.

823
00:33:48,912 --> 00:33:50,653
I-I've never even
heard of Amanda.

824
00:33:50,697 --> 00:33:52,568
You need to recognize
what kind of trouble

825
00:33:52,612 --> 00:33:54,657
you're in here, Petty Officer.

826
00:33:54,701 --> 00:33:56,267
You ordered the drugs,

827
00:33:56,311 --> 00:33:59,227
you stalked Amanda Gregson
and you stabbed her.

828
00:33:59,270 --> 00:34:01,403
That's premeditated
first-degree murder,

829
00:34:01,446 --> 00:34:04,711
and carries a death sentence
in the state of Louisiana.

830
00:34:04,754 --> 00:34:06,495
Or...

831
00:34:07,975 --> 00:34:09,672
...we can make a deal.

832
00:34:10,673 --> 00:34:12,153
What kind of deal?

833
00:34:12,196 --> 00:34:14,938
Admit to raping Emily Tascioni,

834
00:34:14,982 --> 00:34:16,940
I'll push for
the murder charges

835
00:34:16,984 --> 00:34:19,943
to be tried
in a JAG military court.

836
00:34:19,987 --> 00:34:21,945
[scoffs]
What difference would that make?

837
00:34:21,989 --> 00:34:23,599
JAG courts haven't
handed out the death penalty

838
00:34:23,643 --> 00:34:25,035
in over 60 years.

839
00:34:28,561 --> 00:34:29,779
How much time?

840
00:34:29,823 --> 00:34:31,085
25 to life.

841
00:34:31,128 --> 00:34:32,565
That's not a deal.

842
00:34:36,177 --> 00:34:38,440
It's the best
you're ever gonna get.

843
00:34:41,356 --> 00:34:43,401
And when I walk
out of this room...

844
00:34:46,187 --> 00:34:48,232
...the offer walks with me.

845
00:34:55,631 --> 00:34:57,502
Wait.

846
00:35:03,291 --> 00:35:04,988
EMILY: <i>
He confessed?</i>

847
00:35:05,032 --> 00:35:07,382
I can't believe
this is real.

848
00:35:07,425 --> 00:35:09,558
It's as real as it gets.

849
00:35:09,602 --> 00:35:13,301
It's gonna be a long time
before I feel like myself again,

850
00:35:13,344 --> 00:35:14,911
but this helps.

851
00:35:14,955 --> 00:35:17,348
Does this mean you're
going back to work?

852
00:35:17,392 --> 00:35:19,002
Eventually.
Mm.

853
00:35:19,046 --> 00:35:21,135
But right now,
I'm meeting with SAPR.

854
00:35:21,178 --> 00:35:23,659
The Navy's Sexual Assault
Prevention and Response team?

855
00:35:23,703 --> 00:35:25,530
The master-at-arms Amanda
was working with

856
00:35:25,574 --> 00:35:28,446
reached out to me, told me
what they were trying to do.

857
00:35:28,490 --> 00:35:30,710
Yeah, get Liam transferred.

858
00:35:30,753 --> 00:35:34,017
That kind of back-channel
justice has to stop.

859
00:35:35,497 --> 00:35:37,630
It's not a solution.

860
00:35:37,673 --> 00:35:40,415
You're bringing
the fight to them?

861
00:35:40,458 --> 00:35:43,287
Somebody has to give
these women a voice.

862
00:35:43,331 --> 00:35:44,811
And I can't let
anyone else

863
00:35:44,854 --> 00:35:46,900
go through what I did.

864
00:35:48,466 --> 00:35:50,643
Well, that's very brave.

865
00:35:50,686 --> 00:35:52,209
And whatever
you need,

866
00:35:52,253 --> 00:35:54,037
I'm here to help, okay?

867
00:35:54,081 --> 00:35:55,778
Thank you.

868
00:35:55,822 --> 00:35:57,084
You're welcome.

869
00:35:58,085 --> 00:36:00,087
Thank <i>you.</i>

Sebastian, you shouldn't have.

00:36:27,288 --> 00:36:28,637
Uh, what, come back here?

878
00:36:28,681 --> 00:36:30,247
'Cause I didn't know
if I was supposed to, and--

879
00:36:30,291 --> 00:36:31,553
I don't know, maybe
it was too much,

880
00:36:31,596 --> 00:36:32,902
the whole flower thing.
No, it's just right.

881
00:36:32,946 --> 00:36:34,861
Okay.I meant you didn't need

882
00:36:34,904 --> 00:36:36,993
to go to all the effort.
Oh, come on, no.

883
00:36:37,037 --> 00:36:39,604
Someone had to be back here
with you in the wings, you know?

884
00:36:39,648 --> 00:36:41,432
Wishing you luck,
telling you to break

885
00:36:41,476 --> 00:36:43,043
something.
[laughs]

886
00:36:43,086 --> 00:36:45,132
Thank you. Yeah, no,
I am a little nervous.

887
00:36:45,175 --> 00:36:47,090
What? Come on, you're
gonna be amazing.

888
00:36:47,134 --> 00:36:49,266
[laughs]: I don't know.
Trust me, all right?

889
00:36:49,310 --> 00:36:51,747
And tomorrow, I was thinking
we could celebrate.

890
00:36:51,791 --> 00:36:53,749
Go get dinner,
dessert, maybe

891
00:36:53,793 --> 00:36:56,143
go to this ax-throwing bar
I keep hearing about.

892
00:36:57,492 --> 00:36:59,929
Or, judging by your expression,

893
00:36:59,973 --> 00:37:01,583
thinking maybe you're not
into the dessert thing,

894
00:37:01,626 --> 00:37:03,803
so we'll just do dinner
and ax throwing.

895
00:37:03,846 --> 00:37:07,807
No, it's not that. It's, um...

896
00:37:07,850 --> 00:37:09,678
I've been talking
to my mom again.

897
00:37:09,722 --> 00:37:11,767
Oh, yeah? You called her?Yeah.

898
00:37:11,811 --> 00:37:14,117
After what Dr. Wade said
at dinner, I-I reached out.

899
00:37:14,161 --> 00:37:16,119
And it turned out
she was just as scared

900
00:37:16,163 --> 00:37:17,512
to make the first move.

901
00:37:17,555 --> 00:37:19,209
[chuckles]
Well, that's awesome.

902
00:37:19,253 --> 00:37:21,646
She wants to meet Rory,
of course.

903
00:37:21,690 --> 00:37:23,126
And, um,

904
00:37:23,170 --> 00:37:26,390
well, she said I could
move back home if I wanted.

905
00:37:28,175 --> 00:37:29,742
Oh, okay-- wow.

906
00:37:29,785 --> 00:37:31,395
That's, uh,
is that--

907
00:37:31,439 --> 00:37:33,571
Is-- Do you want to?

908
00:37:33,615 --> 00:37:35,486
Kind of, yeah. I mean,

909
00:37:35,530 --> 00:37:37,967
on the one hand, she could watch
Rory while I work.

910
00:37:38,011 --> 00:37:39,403
Rory would get to know
her family.Mm-hmm.

911
00:37:39,447 --> 00:37:40,796
And I could write again,

912
00:37:40,840 --> 00:37:43,843
in Nashville,
which has always been my dream.

913
00:37:43,886 --> 00:37:46,584
Um...

914
00:37:46,628 --> 00:37:49,805
is there, is there room
on the other hand, or...?

915
00:37:49,849 --> 00:37:52,590
Well, I met
a really great guy...

916
00:37:53,722 --> 00:37:56,072
...and I'd miss him a lot.

917
00:37:56,116 --> 00:37:57,813
That's me, right?

918
00:37:57,857 --> 00:37:59,293
Yes, I'm talking about you.
Okay.

919
00:37:59,336 --> 00:38:01,425
[exhales] Had to be sure.
Just got nervous.

920
00:38:01,469 --> 00:38:04,515
I don't know.
What do you think I should do?

921
00:38:04,559 --> 00:38:07,518
Honestly?

922
00:38:07,562 --> 00:38:09,738
I mean, how can you not go back?

923
00:38:12,306 --> 00:38:13,786
[laughs softly]

924
00:38:16,919 --> 00:38:18,834
Just as long as you promise
me something.  Mm.

925
00:38:18,878 --> 00:38:21,010
When you get big,
don't forget about me, okay?

926
00:38:21,054 --> 00:38:22,620
And I need you to
write a song about me,

927
00:38:22,664 --> 00:38:24,013
and I need it to be a ballad.

928
00:38:24,057 --> 00:38:26,276
Hey, I never said
I wanted to stop doing this.

929
00:38:26,320 --> 00:38:27,625
Really? Well, I mean,

930
00:38:27,669 --> 00:38:29,627
Nashville's, like, a, like,
a ten-hour drive.

931
00:38:29,671 --> 00:38:32,892
Uh, actually,
it's seven hours and 49 minutes.

932
00:38:34,197 --> 00:38:36,765
I mean, I do like a girl
who does her research.

933
00:38:45,687 --> 00:38:47,297
Headed to the airport?

934
00:38:47,341 --> 00:38:50,735
Yeah, I was hoping that we could
talk before I left.

935
00:38:50,779 --> 00:38:52,389
I tried calling.

936
00:38:52,433 --> 00:38:54,043
What's there to talk about?

937
00:38:54,087 --> 00:38:55,871
You made your decision.

938
00:38:55,915 --> 00:38:58,961
I should have
told you in private.

939
00:38:59,005 --> 00:39:01,790
Brennan will be relieved
when he finds out.

940
00:39:03,923 --> 00:39:06,229
Have a safe flight.
Quentin, please.

941
00:39:06,273 --> 00:39:09,319
I'm trying to
explain myself here.

942
00:39:13,280 --> 00:39:18,633
I believed the worst in you
when you were a teenager,

943
00:39:18,676 --> 00:39:21,592
and I am so sorry.

944
00:39:21,636 --> 00:39:24,813
It breaks my heart that you went
through that alone.

945
00:39:26,771 --> 00:39:29,383
It's-it's, uh, it's in the past.

946
00:39:29,426 --> 00:39:30,906
I failed you then.

947
00:39:30,950 --> 00:39:32,777
And I know that
that makes it hard

948
00:39:32,821 --> 00:39:36,390
for you to believe me now,

949
00:39:36,433 --> 00:39:39,784
but what you did for Brennan,

950
00:39:39,828 --> 00:39:44,354
was quite noble.

951
00:39:45,399 --> 00:39:46,922
And I am so proud

952
00:39:46,966 --> 00:39:50,099
of the man that you have become.

953
00:39:50,143 --> 00:39:51,927
Mom.
And you think that I am

954
00:39:51,971 --> 00:39:54,495
stepping down
to protect Brennan,

955
00:39:54,538 --> 00:39:58,281
but really,
I want to protect you, too.

956
00:39:58,325 --> 00:40:00,153
And if that means
me giving up

957
00:40:00,196 --> 00:40:06,289
a promotion so that both
of my sons can thrive?

958
00:40:06,333 --> 00:40:09,945
That is the easiest decision
I've ever made.

959
00:40:14,907 --> 00:40:16,865
I understand.

960
00:40:18,519 --> 00:40:21,478
