1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:03,600
When the marriage isn't working, what do
you do? At a seminar.

2
00:00:03,860 --> 00:00:06,540
As a couples therapist, I've seen all
kinds of responses.

3
00:00:07,040 --> 00:00:08,220
Some people fight.

4
00:00:08,520 --> 00:00:11,620
Everything becomes an excuse to voice
their resentment.

5
00:00:12,480 --> 00:00:17,660
You don't load the dishwasher the right
way. You forgot to pick up milk. You

6
00:00:17,660 --> 00:00:18,840
never listen.

7
00:00:19,060 --> 00:00:21,700
You never hear me.

8
00:00:22,720 --> 00:00:26,740
Some people retreat into their own
lives.

9
00:00:27,400 --> 00:00:32,460
Until the partners wind up like two
ships in the night passing each other in

10
00:00:32,460 --> 00:00:35,340
the hall with a wave. Hi, honey. Bye,
honey.

11
00:00:36,060 --> 00:00:37,060
Couples listen.

12
00:00:37,120 --> 00:00:40,360
And some people stray. A bald man holds
his wife's hand.

13
00:00:40,560 --> 00:00:42,480
So how do you keep it together?

14
00:00:43,660 --> 00:00:48,280
I can help you improve your marriage
just like I've helped so many couples in

15
00:00:48,280 --> 00:00:49,280
my private practice.

16
00:00:49,580 --> 00:00:52,860
Some of their stories are featured in my
book.

17
00:00:53,540 --> 00:00:55,800
And a few of those happy couples...

18
00:00:56,619 --> 00:00:58,420
The speaker shows a photo.

19
00:01:05,720 --> 00:01:12,520
In a loft

20
00:01:12,520 --> 00:01:15,760
apartment, the dark-haired seminar
speaker cheats on her husband with a

21
00:01:15,760 --> 00:01:16,518
bearded man.

22
00:01:16,520 --> 00:01:17,800
They kiss passionately.

23
00:01:20,540 --> 00:01:22,820
They drop to the floor and kiss.

24
00:01:23,160 --> 00:01:24,580
She crawls onto the bed.

25
00:01:26,830 --> 00:01:28,510
You have to come and get me.

26
00:01:28,990 --> 00:01:29,990
Chase me.

27
00:01:30,810 --> 00:01:31,810
Chase me!

28
00:01:32,170 --> 00:01:36,330
Human desire is a fire that needs to be
stoked.

29
00:01:36,690 --> 00:01:39,250
It needs air and agitation.

30
00:01:40,350 --> 00:01:44,510
Graham and I work hard to keep our love
life playful.

31
00:01:44,790 --> 00:01:48,270
As the bearded man plays a video game,
the dark-haired woman tries to get his

32
00:01:48,270 --> 00:01:49,770
attention with a seductive dance.

33
00:01:50,050 --> 00:01:51,150
He ignores her.

34
00:01:52,550 --> 00:01:55,110
We're both generous with our words.

35
00:01:55,950 --> 00:02:00,170
We never wonder what the other one is
feeling. We're not afraid to get

36
00:02:00,170 --> 00:02:04,830
sentimental. As she sobs, the bearded
man casually plays guitar with

37
00:02:04,830 --> 00:02:05,830
headphones on.

38
00:02:06,150 --> 00:02:09,490
I love it. Later, she shows off a puka
shell bracelet.

39
00:02:09,710 --> 00:02:12,350
Remember this? You gave it to me after
your trip to Costa Rica.

40
00:02:13,310 --> 00:02:15,950
You told me to never take it off.

41
00:02:16,150 --> 00:02:20,770
Costa Rica? That was like 20 years ago.
You still have that thing? Of course I

42
00:02:20,770 --> 00:02:21,930
do, silly.

43
00:02:22,610 --> 00:02:24,090
She climbs onto his lap.

44
00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:25,860
I might not see you for a bit.

45
00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:34,360
And the most important thing, we never,
ever give up on one another.

46
00:02:34,920 --> 00:02:37,720
You're listening to audio description on
the SAP channel.

47
00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:41,900
To return to regular program audio, turn
off the SAP feature on your TV.

48
00:02:42,540 --> 00:02:44,920
In bed, she rolls off of the bearded
man.

49
00:02:46,040 --> 00:02:47,400
I need to focus on work.

50
00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:52,900
And I think Graham is starting to catch
on. When are you going back to

51
00:02:52,900 --> 00:02:53,900
California?

52
00:02:55,390 --> 00:02:57,610
Huh. I meant to tell you the good news.

53
00:02:58,250 --> 00:03:02,210
I got a gig playing my own songs at this
pub in Queens.

54
00:03:02,670 --> 00:03:04,250
So I think I'm gonna stick around.

55
00:03:04,850 --> 00:03:06,910
Music scene's dead in L.A. anyway.

56
00:03:07,570 --> 00:03:09,010
What do you mean, stick around?

57
00:03:10,070 --> 00:03:11,530
You don't even have an apartment.

58
00:03:11,850 --> 00:03:13,230
You're house-sitting.

59
00:03:13,650 --> 00:03:14,690
Yeah. She gets dressed.

60
00:03:15,110 --> 00:03:16,950
It's a pretty sweet setup.

61
00:03:17,470 --> 00:03:19,370
He's gonna let me stay through November.

62
00:03:20,150 --> 00:03:21,150
No, no, no, no, no.

63
00:03:21,810 --> 00:03:23,550
You need to go home, Casey.

64
00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:27,740
I can't keep doing this. I can't
function with you in my city. If you

65
00:03:27,740 --> 00:03:30,100
want to call it quits, just say the
word, babe.

66
00:03:31,200 --> 00:03:33,740
I'm probably gonna be pretty busy with
my music anyway.

67
00:03:34,900 --> 00:03:36,780
That's it? You're not gonna fight for
me?

68
00:03:37,940 --> 00:03:39,080
Easy, tiger.

69
00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:40,960
Casey pulls her back into bed.

70
00:03:43,440 --> 00:03:45,700
They wrap their arms around each other
and kiss.

71
00:03:48,180 --> 00:03:49,740
Why would I fight for you?

72
00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:52,280
You always come back.

73
00:03:54,570 --> 00:03:56,610
Her smile fades as he kisses her neck.

74
00:03:57,070 --> 00:03:58,070
Text appears.

75
00:03:58,350 --> 00:04:00,130
One more illicit rendezvous later.

76
00:04:00,810 --> 00:04:04,270
Wearing a skimpy maid outfit, the
dark-haired woman cleans up around the

77
00:04:04,270 --> 00:04:05,270
apartment.

78
00:04:07,950 --> 00:04:12,110
Wearing gloves, she scrubs a countertop,
then uses cleaner on the door handles

79
00:04:12,110 --> 00:04:13,029
and locks.

80
00:04:13,030 --> 00:04:15,350
Casey walks out with a towel around his
waist.

81
00:04:16,649 --> 00:04:18,890
You found my hacky sack.

82
00:04:19,730 --> 00:04:20,730
Right.

83
00:04:21,269 --> 00:04:24,570
As he plays with the hacky sack, she
grabs it out of the air.

84
00:04:25,050 --> 00:04:28,390
Cleaning the bedroom, she opens a sock
drawer to reveal a handgun inside.

85
00:04:28,930 --> 00:04:30,890
The dark-haired woman pockets the gun.

86
00:04:33,050 --> 00:04:35,350
She deletes a messaging app from Casey's
phone.

87
00:04:35,650 --> 00:04:39,570
She searches her name, Serena, in his
contacts, and nothing comes up.

88
00:04:40,090 --> 00:04:43,330
Serena glances around, then creates a
new message on his phone.

89
00:04:45,150 --> 00:04:48,250
In a cafe, the bald man from the seminar
gets a text.

90
00:04:48,470 --> 00:04:50,250
Hey man, I'm hooking up with your wife.

91
00:04:50,620 --> 00:04:57,380
it's time we hash this out come see me
at 167 norhaven place casey carrying two

92
00:04:57,380 --> 00:05:01,880

94
00:05:07,860 --> 00:05:12,700
casey opens his door and luke punches
him in the face he shoves casey inside

95
00:05:12,700 --> 00:05:15,960
you think you can just send me a text
and everything's cool huh

96
00:05:17,090 --> 00:05:19,170
Lauren's not going anywhere, bro. Who's
Lauren?

97
00:05:19,450 --> 00:05:22,630
What tax? You want to hash this out?
Let's hash this out right now.

98
00:05:23,010 --> 00:05:24,010
Come on.

99
00:05:25,210 --> 00:05:29,650
They hit each other. Across the street,
Serena wears black leather gloves and a

100
00:05:29,650 --> 00:05:30,650
dark hooded jacket.

101
00:05:30,670 --> 00:05:33,250
She looks up at the apartment window as
the men fight.

102
00:05:36,570 --> 00:05:38,950
Luke gets on top of Casey and punches
him.

103
00:05:40,410 --> 00:05:41,990
Serena watches Luke move away.

104
00:05:42,270 --> 00:05:43,830
She starts across the street.

105
00:05:54,500 --> 00:05:56,960
Why can't you just leave me alone?

106
00:06:14,750 --> 00:06:15,750
A hacky sack.

107
00:06:16,870 --> 00:06:18,630
Oh, is the victim a college student?

108
00:06:19,110 --> 00:06:22,650
Hardly. He's a 48-year-old musician
named Casey Arthurs.

109
00:06:23,010 --> 00:06:25,510
The address on his ID is in Van Nuys,
California.

110
00:06:26,010 --> 00:06:27,150
Hey, what was he doing here?

111
00:06:27,490 --> 00:06:30,650
A house sitting. The woman who lives
upstairs says he's been in town about

112
00:06:30,650 --> 00:06:33,650
two months. He was watching the
apartment for the guy who lives here.

113
00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:38,440
Apparently, that guy is walking the
Camino? Yeah, I'm gonna need more

114
00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:41,440
detail. It's a pilgrimage journey
through Europe.

115
00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:44,520
Uh, some people walk the last part on
their knees.

116
00:06:45,580 --> 00:06:47,220
Or I guess you'd call that crawling.

117
00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:48,520
What about the victim?

118
00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:49,800
Who found him?

119
00:06:49,900 --> 00:06:50,900
Uh, the neighbor lady.

120
00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:54,740
She said she saw blood on the door this
morning, so she let herself in, and she

121
00:06:54,740 --> 00:06:58,200
found Mr. Arthurs. Now, CSU says he's
been dead at least 12 hours.

122
00:06:58,420 --> 00:07:02,500
He has a single bullet wound to the
chest. He also has a cut over his left

123
00:07:02,500 --> 00:07:03,560
eye from a fistfight.

124
00:07:03,920 --> 00:07:06,360
Oh, the killer used this.

125
00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:08,480
We found it on the floor over here.

126
00:07:08,700 --> 00:07:13,700
It's registered to the victim. No sign
of force entry, so our victim lets the

127
00:07:13,700 --> 00:07:15,840
guy in. They throw some punches.

128
00:07:16,180 --> 00:07:21,040
Smullen dodges a punch from Alsbeth. Our
victim gets his gun, but the attacker

129
00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:22,940
grabs it, and things go south.

130
00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:24,460
She aims a finger gun.

131
00:07:24,700 --> 00:07:27,100
Why didn't anybody call this in last
night?

132
00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:32,520
I mean, you'd think the neighbors would
hear a fight or a gunshot.

133
00:07:32,820 --> 00:07:33,820
The Rangers.

134
00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:35,820
We're playing last night. There's a
sports bar downstairs.

135
00:07:36,280 --> 00:07:37,620
Maybe it was noisy.

136
00:07:37,900 --> 00:07:39,880
Maybe. What are you, a Blackhawks fan?

137
00:07:40,100 --> 00:07:41,100
Oh, gosh, no.

138
00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:44,320
But Teddy and Roy have been really into
hockey lately.

139
00:07:44,580 --> 00:07:45,580
Me too.

140
00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:49,460
Excuse me. Hackett sets down the gun and
steps away.

141
00:07:49,840 --> 00:07:51,160
Elspeth inspects the kitchen.

142
00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:53,640
Huh.

143
00:07:53,940 --> 00:07:59,500
For a dirty apartment, sure is clean
over here.

144
00:08:00,740 --> 00:08:01,960
She opens the fridge.

145
00:08:02,340 --> 00:08:03,340
Sort of.

146
00:08:03,680 --> 00:08:04,700
She checks the freezer.

147
00:08:05,780 --> 00:08:11,480
Ooh, looks like somebody put this in
here to chill and then forgot about it.

148
00:08:12,420 --> 00:08:14,080
Riesling? That looks expensive.

149
00:08:14,620 --> 00:08:15,620
Huh.

150
00:08:16,600 --> 00:08:17,600
Nice wine.

151
00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:20,000
Cheap beer.

152
00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:21,160
Cheap gun, too.

153
00:08:21,560 --> 00:08:22,660
Still works, though.

154
00:08:22,940 --> 00:08:24,040
Elsbeth eyes the gun.

155
00:08:24,580 --> 00:08:26,700
Huh. I don't see any fingerprints.

156
00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:29,360
They haven't run it yet. They're going
to test it down at the lab.

157
00:08:29,620 --> 00:08:30,620
But...

158
00:08:31,310 --> 00:08:33,350
There are bloody fingerprints on the
doorknob.

159
00:08:33,770 --> 00:08:38,890
See? From when someone closed the door
on the way out.

160
00:08:40,330 --> 00:08:44,169
If the killer had blood on their hands,
then why aren't there bloody

161
00:08:44,169 --> 00:08:46,350
fingerprints on the gun? Maybe they wore
gloves.

162
00:08:46,630 --> 00:08:47,630
Well, why take them off?

163
00:08:47,750 --> 00:08:50,450
Maybe they didn't get blood on their
hands until after they shot him.

164
00:08:50,690 --> 00:08:51,690
Good news, detective.

165
00:08:51,830 --> 00:08:54,670
The victim's phone has two missed calls
and an angry text.

166
00:08:54,870 --> 00:08:55,870
Who from?

167
00:08:55,910 --> 00:08:56,910
Some guy named Luke?

168
00:08:57,210 --> 00:09:01,090
All right, well, let's go pay some guy
named Luke a visit, shall we?

169
00:09:02,350 --> 00:09:06,150
I don't mean to rush you, Serena, but
they need to make the slides for your

170
00:09:06,150 --> 00:09:07,990
closing talk. Do you have a theme yet?

171
00:09:09,590 --> 00:09:10,590
Yes.

172
00:09:12,830 --> 00:09:13,950
Eliminating temptation.

173
00:09:25,460 --> 00:09:28,220
Looks like you've got a love triangle on
your hands. What?

174
00:09:28,860 --> 00:09:32,000
Oh. She gives him a file. Yeah, yeah,
yeah. You're probably right.

175
00:09:32,260 --> 00:09:36,200
Right about what? About the murder. It's
a classic love triangle.

176
00:09:36,420 --> 00:09:40,040
Guy meets girl, girl is married, guy
ends up in the morgue. Kind of makes you

177
00:09:40,040 --> 00:09:41,040
glad to be single.

178
00:09:41,220 --> 00:09:42,219
I'll second that.

179
00:09:42,220 --> 00:09:46,060
I wouldn't know. I just got back on the
dating apps. Are you on them? I don't

180
00:09:46,060 --> 00:09:47,060
even like to shop online.

181
00:09:47,300 --> 00:09:48,560
It's pretty bleak out there.

182
00:09:49,180 --> 00:09:50,840
Nevertheless, she persists.

183
00:09:51,380 --> 00:09:53,960
Hey, have Teddy and Royce had a wedding
date yet?

184
00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:55,499
Not yet.

185
00:09:55,500 --> 00:09:56,580
I wish they would.

186
00:09:56,860 --> 00:09:58,980
I can't start a mood board without a
season.

187
00:09:59,500 --> 00:10:01,940
How long is he going to keep us waiting?
A man is dead.

188
00:10:02,540 --> 00:10:05,140
Then what's the hurry? Wagner walks up
behind them.

189
00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:08,720
This is our prime suspect, Luke
Prescott.

190
00:10:08,960 --> 00:10:12,480
We held him overnight for questioning,
but I need your okay before we charge

191
00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:13,480
him with the murder.

192
00:10:13,680 --> 00:10:17,700
Someone thinks we need more physical
evidence first, as if admitting to

193
00:10:17,700 --> 00:10:19,580
beating up the victim isn't enough.

194
00:10:19,920 --> 00:10:20,839
Care to elaborate?

195
00:10:20,840 --> 00:10:22,420
I'm not saying he didn't do it.

196
00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:28,200
I am just saying there are some
inconsistencies we need to account for

197
00:10:28,200 --> 00:10:32,500
first. For example, Luke's bloody
fingerprints were on the door of the

198
00:10:32,500 --> 00:10:34,900
apartment, but the lab ran the gun and
it was clean.

199
00:10:35,140 --> 00:10:37,980
No evidence that Luke ever even touched
it.

200
00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:39,480
Doesn't that strike you as odd?

201
00:10:39,740 --> 00:10:44,400
Bloody fingerprints at a crime scene are
difficult to argue, even for you. But in

202
00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:49,680
light of the settlement recently paid
out for an unlawful arrest, I'm okay

203
00:10:49,680 --> 00:10:51,020
proceeding with caution.

204
00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:52,380
He may not have acted alone.

205
00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:54,220
Do you have a motive?

206
00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:58,740
The victim was sleeping with the
suspect's wife. He even texted the guy

207
00:10:58,740 --> 00:11:02,500
to brag about it. Yeah, does that make
any sense to you? Go lean on the suspect

208
00:11:02,500 --> 00:11:03,299
some more.

209
00:11:03,300 --> 00:11:05,300
But first, talk to the wife.

210
00:11:05,560 --> 00:11:07,400
Elsbeth and Smullen questioned Luke's
wife.

211
00:11:08,560 --> 00:11:09,780
He killed Steve?

212
00:11:10,980 --> 00:11:13,220
Who's Steve? Our victim's name is Casey.

213
00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:19,420
Um... Maybe you know him by another
name?

214
00:11:19,620 --> 00:11:20,620
Elsbeth shows a photo.

215
00:11:20,800 --> 00:11:22,520
I don't recognize this man.

216
00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:24,000
Think harder.

217
00:11:24,180 --> 00:11:28,360
A musician visiting from L.A. He's
house-sitting on the Lower East Side.

218
00:11:28,740 --> 00:11:32,740
A house-sitter? That's not exactly my
type.

219
00:11:34,480 --> 00:11:39,460
I have been seeing someone. Please don't
tell Luke. But my boyfriend's name is

220
00:11:39,460 --> 00:11:40,700
Steve, not Casey.

221
00:11:41,020 --> 00:11:44,220
Steve works in finance and has a third
house in the Hamptons. But you are

222
00:11:44,220 --> 00:11:45,560
cheating on your husband, right?

223
00:11:45,820 --> 00:11:46,799
Oh, God.

224
00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:47,800
What a mess.

225
00:11:49,400 --> 00:11:51,780
Everyone had higher hopes for Jack and
Jill.

226
00:11:52,840 --> 00:11:53,980
Who are Jack and Jill?

227
00:11:54,220 --> 00:11:55,400
Our pseudonyms.

228
00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:58,980
Luke and I used to see a marriage
counselor, and she wrote about us in her

229
00:11:58,980 --> 00:12:00,440
book, Keeping It Together.

230
00:12:00,820 --> 00:12:03,600
Serena changes her patients' names for
privacy.

231
00:12:04,020 --> 00:12:05,620
You mean Serena Collier?

232
00:12:05,940 --> 00:12:10,080
I love her. I listen to her satellite
radio show all the time where people

233
00:12:10,080 --> 00:12:11,800
call in for marriage advice.

234
00:12:12,020 --> 00:12:13,300
Oh, she is good.

235
00:12:13,700 --> 00:12:14,700
Not that good.

236
00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:17,480
Oh, no, no, trust me. She has a way with
words.

237
00:12:17,860 --> 00:12:20,320
It's a good thing Serena wasn't around
20 years ago.

238
00:12:21,570 --> 00:12:23,230
Otherwise, I might still be married.

239
00:12:23,590 --> 00:12:27,350
With Luke. Oh, come on, Luke. Just tell
us what really went down with Casey

240
00:12:27,350 --> 00:12:31,330
Arthur's... He and I had words. It got a
little physical, then I left. I didn't

241
00:12:31,330 --> 00:12:33,650
shoot anybody. You think I've never been
lied to before?

242
00:12:35,550 --> 00:12:37,430
All right, let's start from the
beginning.

243
00:12:37,670 --> 00:12:39,590
Casey sends you a text, right?

244
00:12:40,550 --> 00:12:42,270
Then what? Why'd you go over there?

245
00:12:43,090 --> 00:12:44,130
Luke hesitates.

246
00:12:44,950 --> 00:12:46,030
Do I have to answer that?

247
00:12:46,870 --> 00:12:50,970
Legally. No, you don't have to answer
any questions you don't want to. But the

248
00:12:50,970 --> 00:12:52,410
less you talk, the guiltier you look.

249
00:12:52,710 --> 00:12:58,070
Your wife, Lauren, told us that your
marriage counselor wrote about you in

250
00:12:58,070 --> 00:13:01,290
her book, so I started reading the
chapter about you.

251
00:13:01,870 --> 00:13:06,770
Serena Collier calls your relationship
sexually volatile, so you do seem to

252
00:13:06,770 --> 00:13:08,270
have a serious issue with jealousy.

253
00:13:08,730 --> 00:13:10,110
You gotta read the whole chapter.

254
00:13:10,470 --> 00:13:13,570
I got better. Lauren and I were one of
her success stories.

255
00:13:15,150 --> 00:13:17,010
Go talk to Serena. She'll tell you
everything.

256
00:13:17,210 --> 00:13:18,670
I'm not a violent man.

257
00:13:18,970 --> 00:13:23,470
We would love to talk to Serena, but
unfortunately, therapists can't disclose

258
00:13:23,470 --> 00:13:26,510
anything without your permission. You'd
have to waive your right to privilege.

259
00:13:26,910 --> 00:13:28,950
Whatever it takes. You'll see I'm not a
killer.

260
00:13:29,170 --> 00:13:30,350
They meet with Serena.

261
00:13:30,730 --> 00:13:32,390
Oh, you must be the detectives.

262
00:13:33,730 --> 00:13:35,170
Welcome to the sanctuary.

263
00:13:35,550 --> 00:13:36,830
I'm Serena Collier.

264
00:13:37,339 --> 00:13:38,440
I'm the detective.

265
00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:45,280
She's, uh... So pleased to meet you. Hi,
I am Elsbeth Tassioni. I am such a huge

266
00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:49,340
fan. I listen to your radio show all the
time. Wow, you look like you're

267
00:13:49,340 --> 00:13:52,400
always... Elsbeth stumbles over pillows
set up on the floor.

268
00:13:53,220 --> 00:13:54,500
What goes on in here?

269
00:13:55,760 --> 00:13:58,420
I'm hosting my annual relationship
workshop.

270
00:13:58,780 --> 00:14:02,520
We do group couples therapy in here.
Sitting on pillows helps keep things

271
00:14:02,520 --> 00:14:05,900
grounded. I bet it hurts a lot less when
they throw them at each other, huh?

272
00:14:06,250 --> 00:14:07,570
The women, I, Smullen.

273
00:14:08,350 --> 00:14:11,090
Uh, so what can you tell us about Luke
Prescott?

274
00:14:11,330 --> 00:14:14,330
We understand that you were his marriage
counselor for two years.

275
00:14:14,850 --> 00:14:15,850
Yes, I was.

276
00:14:15,950 --> 00:14:19,290
Uh, from what you said on the phone, it
seems like Luke is hoping I'll vouch for

277
00:14:19,290 --> 00:14:20,290
his transformation.

278
00:14:20,430 --> 00:14:21,430
Can you?

279
00:14:23,170 --> 00:14:24,170
Unfortunately,

280
00:14:26,750 --> 00:14:29,070
no. Luke was always a hothead.

281
00:14:29,510 --> 00:14:30,790
Something was bound to happen.

282
00:14:31,070 --> 00:14:32,110
He's a jealous...

283
00:14:32,720 --> 00:14:36,600
Possessive man married to a sexually
compulsive woman with a fear of

284
00:14:36,600 --> 00:14:38,540
commitment. Sounds like a match made in
heaven.

285
00:14:38,760 --> 00:14:39,760
I've seen worse.

286
00:14:40,060 --> 00:14:43,100
But Luke and Lauren, they did make
progress.

287
00:14:43,360 --> 00:14:46,100
It's all in my book. When they stopped
seeing me, they were in a good place.

288
00:14:46,240 --> 00:14:50,800
But toxic behavior has a funny way of
reappearing.

289
00:14:51,520 --> 00:14:57,780
The work is never done, right? This all
checks out, so thank you for your time.

290
00:14:57,960 --> 00:15:00,260
Yes, thank you. Elizabeth stands up from
the pillows.

291
00:15:01,740 --> 00:15:06,080
You know what? There is something that
I'm hoping you can explain.

292
00:15:06,420 --> 00:15:12,340
Uh, Lauren... admitted to having an
affair with some guy named Steve, but

293
00:15:12,340 --> 00:15:14,740
she swears she wasn't seeing our victim,
Casey.

294
00:15:15,260 --> 00:15:17,640
In fact, she denies even knowing him.

295
00:15:17,880 --> 00:15:20,640
Oh, she's probably feeling ashamed, so
she lied.

296
00:15:21,440 --> 00:15:22,440
Ashamed?

297
00:15:23,960 --> 00:15:28,000
Oh, because he wasn't up to her usual
standards.

298
00:15:28,400 --> 00:15:30,160
I got it. How do you mean?

299
00:15:30,990 --> 00:15:36,470
Oh, Lauren mentioned that she prefers
men who are more financially stable,

300
00:15:36,690 --> 00:15:39,330
whereas Casey was a struggling musician
downtown.

301
00:15:40,070 --> 00:15:42,190
That's putting it nicely. The guy was a
bum.

302
00:15:43,250 --> 00:15:46,710
You shouldn't judge a person on their
economic status or what part of town

303
00:15:46,710 --> 00:15:50,110
they're staying in. You might miss all
the other traits that make them a

304
00:15:50,110 --> 00:15:52,850
beautiful and creative soul.

305
00:15:53,730 --> 00:15:54,730
Right.

306
00:15:55,770 --> 00:15:56,770
Huh.

307
00:15:57,070 --> 00:15:58,670
You said staying in.

308
00:15:59,550 --> 00:16:00,590
Instead of living in.

309
00:16:01,050 --> 00:16:04,630
How did you know Casey was from out of
town? Have you spoken to Lauren

310
00:16:04,630 --> 00:16:05,630
recently?

311
00:16:06,190 --> 00:16:07,490
It's just a figure of speech.

312
00:16:07,870 --> 00:16:09,370
Oh, that's our time.

313
00:16:10,170 --> 00:16:14,550
Unless you want to stick around for the
retreat.

314
00:16:14,870 --> 00:16:15,870
Oh, yes, please.

315
00:16:16,250 --> 00:16:19,650
I sense some friction here. Your
micro-expressions speak volumes.

316
00:16:20,050 --> 00:16:23,410
Oh, thank you. We'll get out of your
hair. How much is it? $20,000 per

317
00:16:23,410 --> 00:16:26,790
couple. We'll think about it. No, we
won't. At the precinct, Hackett holds

318
00:16:26,790 --> 00:16:27,719
her phone.

319
00:16:27,720 --> 00:16:30,700
Okay, so guys can't message me unless I
like their profile first.

320
00:16:31,500 --> 00:16:33,760
Oh, I know him from the comedy clubs.

321
00:16:33,960 --> 00:16:34,960
New.

322
00:16:35,540 --> 00:16:37,460
No. She swipes through guys.

323
00:16:37,760 --> 00:16:39,240
I think I arrested him last summer.

324
00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:41,740
Have you tried expanding your search
parameters?

325
00:16:42,600 --> 00:16:45,040
I guess I could open it up to all five
boroughs.

326
00:16:46,320 --> 00:16:48,320
Actually, I'd better make it four.

327
00:16:48,660 --> 00:16:50,140
I am not getting on a ferry.

328
00:16:50,440 --> 00:16:51,720
She swipes to a new profile.

329
00:16:52,420 --> 00:16:55,160
Is that Detective Smollett? I thought he
was married.

330
00:16:55,440 --> 00:16:56,440
He is.

331
00:16:57,460 --> 00:16:59,540
Oh, good day. Top of the morning.

332
00:16:59,780 --> 00:17:02,400
Morning. You wanted to show me the
phone?

333
00:17:02,680 --> 00:17:03,680
Yep, right.

334
00:17:03,760 --> 00:17:05,060
Yeah, let me just hook up.

335
00:17:05,359 --> 00:17:06,780
I mean, connect.

336
00:17:07,099 --> 00:17:10,720
She mirrors her own phone to the screen.
Whoa, hey! That's the wrong phone.

337
00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:13,339
Hackett takes down Smalling's profile.

338
00:17:13,540 --> 00:17:14,540
Okay.

339
00:17:14,680 --> 00:17:18,540
He turns to the screen as she mirrors
Casey's phone. I've been digging through

340
00:17:18,540 --> 00:17:19,540
the victim's phone.

341
00:17:19,660 --> 00:17:22,839
He had a very busy social life with the
ladies.

342
00:17:23,599 --> 00:17:25,720
Um, I typed up a list.

343
00:17:26,329 --> 00:17:27,890
in case you wanted to talk to any of
them.

344
00:17:28,130 --> 00:17:33,010
I also went through all of his messaging
platforms, and unfortunately, I couldn't

345
00:17:33,010 --> 00:17:36,250
find any connection between Casey and
Lauren, our suspect's wife.

346
00:17:36,490 --> 00:17:39,250
Well, I guess you'll have to keep
looking, then. Call me when you find

347
00:17:39,250 --> 00:17:40,550
something. He leaves.

348
00:17:41,670 --> 00:17:43,910
Um... Elizabeth follows him.

349
00:17:44,490 --> 00:17:47,090
That was rude. You didn't even let her
finish her presentation.

350
00:17:47,390 --> 00:17:52,530
Look, this case is open and shut. Luke's
our guy with or without his wife's text

351
00:17:52,530 --> 00:17:53,229
to Casey.

352
00:17:53,230 --> 00:17:56,670
Well, have you read the full forensic
report that just came in? They didn't

353
00:17:56,670 --> 00:18:00,890
find any gunshot residue on Luke's hands
or on the shirt he wore the night of the

354
00:18:00,890 --> 00:18:05,130
murder. They didn't? Well, there's
probably an explanation. I'll find it. I

355
00:18:05,130 --> 00:18:09,330
still don't understand why Casey even
sent a message to his lover's husband in

356
00:18:09,330 --> 00:18:12,170
the first place. Because it's the noble
thing to do.

357
00:18:12,730 --> 00:18:14,830
Smullen gets on the elevator and the
doors close.

358
00:18:15,350 --> 00:18:17,530
Elsbeth enters her office and joins
Hackett.

359
00:18:18,990 --> 00:18:22,170
Boy, Smullen is extra touchy today.

360
00:18:22,590 --> 00:18:24,410
Maybe he was up all night swiping.

361
00:18:26,830 --> 00:18:29,050
Sorry. I shouldn't have said that.

362
00:18:30,670 --> 00:18:31,670
Did you find anything?

363
00:18:31,930 --> 00:18:34,090
Nothing. I mean, it's weird.

364
00:18:34,290 --> 00:18:37,310
You'd think that Lauren's number would
be in Casey's phone.

365
00:18:37,870 --> 00:18:39,630
Hey, look at that.

366
00:18:39,870 --> 00:18:40,870
She looks at a contact.

367
00:18:41,550 --> 00:18:44,050
Karina. That's an odd spelling.

368
00:18:45,790 --> 00:18:48,070
We just met with a Serena.

369
00:18:48,770 --> 00:18:50,470
Wonder if it's the same one.

370
00:18:50,770 --> 00:18:53,950
I want to empower you to release all
that guilt, Martha.

371
00:18:54,210 --> 00:18:57,610
You didn't know how they felt about
surprise parties. Your in-laws should

372
00:18:57,610 --> 00:18:58,650
have been more explicit.

373
00:18:59,090 --> 00:19:03,610
But now it's time to let it go and let
them rest in peace.

374
00:19:04,090 --> 00:19:05,290
In Serena's office.

375
00:19:05,630 --> 00:19:06,710
And that's our hour.

376
00:19:08,240 --> 00:19:12,560
Let's give an extra special thank you to
my dear husband, Graham, for joining us.

377
00:19:12,900 --> 00:19:14,620
The pleasure was all mine, my darling.

378
00:19:14,880 --> 00:19:20,200
Until next time, I'm Serena Collier,
wishing you a happy home and a healthy

379
00:19:20,200 --> 00:19:21,200
sex life.

380
00:19:21,500 --> 00:19:22,700
Preferably with the same person.

381
00:19:25,860 --> 00:19:27,660
Next time, let me have the last line.

382
00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:29,080
It's my show.

383
00:19:29,240 --> 00:19:30,260
I'm sorry, my love.

384
00:19:30,820 --> 00:19:32,920
Any chance we could have a repeater the
other night?

385
00:19:33,140 --> 00:19:36,360
I have 12 people coming here in an hour,
all of them desperate for my help.

386
00:19:36,830 --> 00:19:40,350
now is not the time you're right i
should have respected your headspace he

387
00:19:40,350 --> 00:19:46,230
kisses her cheek how do we get so lucky
she offers a tight smile as graham walks

388
00:19:46,230 --> 00:19:51,410
away serena checks her phone to find a
call from the nypd discipline

389
00:19:51,410 --> 00:19:56,410
smolin and elsbeth arrive at the
sanctuary are we in the right place yes

390
00:19:56,410 --> 00:20:02,570
and you are just in time please follow
me Welcome to the Relationship

391
00:20:02,570 --> 00:20:06,010
Roundtable. Have a seat. Uh, yeah,
that's not why we're here.

392
00:20:06,210 --> 00:20:07,970
We need to talk to Serena.

393
00:20:08,230 --> 00:20:12,250
You'll meet her soon. But first, let's
all just get to know each other better.

394
00:20:12,450 --> 00:20:14,850
Yeah, that ain't happening. Tassione,
let's go.

395
00:20:17,390 --> 00:20:18,390
Let's go!

396
00:20:19,310 --> 00:20:22,270
Am I supposed to respond to that? Okay.

397
00:20:22,680 --> 00:20:24,480
Looks like we're jumping right into it.

398
00:20:24,680 --> 00:20:26,920
Does anyone want to share what they're
hearing?

399
00:20:27,180 --> 00:20:31,980
I'm hearing a lot of anger in her
partner's voice. We're not partners.

400
00:20:32,480 --> 00:20:34,580
How's it feel to be around that kind of
hostility?

401
00:20:35,100 --> 00:20:36,780
Thank you for asking.

402
00:20:37,280 --> 00:20:39,300
Sometimes it feels pretty lousy.

403
00:20:39,500 --> 00:20:44,840
It's not his tone as much as his
resistance to seeing my point of view.

404
00:20:44,980 --> 00:20:48,840
That's not true. We're here, aren't we?
I practically had to drag you.

405
00:20:49,080 --> 00:20:50,700
Yeah, because it's a waste of time.

406
00:20:51,020 --> 00:20:54,810
He's not... Usually, this emotional, I
think he's hungry.

407
00:20:55,230 --> 00:20:59,270
I'm hearing you make excuses for your
partner. We're not partners. Don't yell

408
00:20:59,270 --> 00:21:00,750
at them. I was yelling at you.

409
00:21:01,090 --> 00:21:01,749
Well, don't.

410
00:21:01,750 --> 00:21:04,190
This back and forth, it's just noise.

411
00:21:05,090 --> 00:21:06,190
What's driving it?

412
00:21:06,730 --> 00:21:10,330
If you want to repair the relationship,
you need to get at the heart of the

413
00:21:10,330 --> 00:21:11,330
problem.

414
00:21:11,610 --> 00:21:13,930
That thing you're too afraid to say out
loud.

415
00:21:15,010 --> 00:21:16,150
So let's get it out.

416
00:21:17,270 --> 00:21:18,149
What's wrong?

417
00:21:18,150 --> 00:21:19,410
She doesn't respect me.

418
00:21:20,510 --> 00:21:24,990
Wow. What if you actually listened to
one another with this truth in mind?

419
00:21:25,210 --> 00:21:26,550
How would it color your response?

420
00:21:26,990 --> 00:21:29,330
That's an excellent question, Bobby.

421
00:21:31,950 --> 00:21:33,270
I'll have to think about it.

422
00:21:34,290 --> 00:21:35,770
Now can we see Serena?

423
00:21:36,550 --> 00:21:37,550
Oh,

424
00:21:38,430 --> 00:21:44,090
Casey Arthurs. I couldn't place the name
before, but I recognize his face. I knew

425
00:21:44,090 --> 00:21:45,090
Casey in grad school.

426
00:21:45,770 --> 00:21:47,510
I'm sorry to hear he's gone.

427
00:21:47,870 --> 00:21:49,050
How well did you know him?

428
00:21:49,330 --> 00:21:50,330
We dated.

429
00:21:50,870 --> 00:21:52,610
Briefly, but we didn't keep in touch.

430
00:21:53,170 --> 00:21:56,890
To be honest, I'm surprised my number
was still in his phone. I didn't think

431
00:21:56,890 --> 00:21:58,450
we were ever that close.

432
00:21:58,910 --> 00:22:03,010
Well, he spelled your name wrong, so I
guess you weren't.

433
00:22:05,130 --> 00:22:09,250
Don't you think it's a strange
coincidence, though, that a former

434
00:22:09,250 --> 00:22:11,930
patient allegedly murdered your old
boyfriend?

435
00:22:13,110 --> 00:22:14,110
No.

436
00:22:14,350 --> 00:22:17,930
I don't believe I asked you where you
were Monday night.

437
00:22:19,690 --> 00:22:21,870
I was taking one of my serenity walks.

438
00:22:22,450 --> 00:22:23,590
You should try this.

439
00:22:23,850 --> 00:22:30,390
I leave my devices at home, and I walk
for miles, wherever my

440
00:22:30,390 --> 00:22:35,490
intuition tells me to go. Where did your
intuition send you that night?

441
00:22:36,430 --> 00:22:37,950
Up the Hudson River Greenway.

442
00:22:38,930 --> 00:22:41,930
I don't understand why you're asking me
these questions.

443
00:22:42,390 --> 00:22:45,810
Where you see coincidence, I see
connection.

444
00:22:47,550 --> 00:22:48,550
I connect.

445
00:22:49,630 --> 00:22:50,910
with people for a living.

446
00:22:51,830 --> 00:22:55,590
Eventually, some of those people are
bound to cross paths with one another.

447
00:22:55,790 --> 00:22:56,830
That's a big city.

448
00:22:57,230 --> 00:22:58,470
That's a lot of connections.

449
00:22:58,810 --> 00:23:05,470
New York is an atomic collider filled
with eight million particles

450
00:23:05,470 --> 00:23:09,930
smashing together in search of
connection.

451
00:23:10,570 --> 00:23:16,330
As friends, random sex partners, even
soul-connected lovers.

452
00:23:19,280 --> 00:23:22,780
How many connections have you two made?

453
00:23:25,700 --> 00:23:26,960
That's our time.

454
00:23:27,660 --> 00:23:29,380
My couples need me.

455
00:23:30,540 --> 00:23:33,040
Those are cute.

456
00:23:33,320 --> 00:23:34,320
Oh.

457
00:23:38,340 --> 00:23:43,560
Come in.

458
00:23:47,620 --> 00:23:48,620
Um...

459
00:23:49,320 --> 00:23:50,320
Is everything all right?

460
00:23:50,900 --> 00:23:53,360
I need to tell you something in
confidence.

461
00:23:53,860 --> 00:23:59,020
Recently, I discovered, totally by
accident, that someone here has an

462
00:23:59,020 --> 00:24:01,780
online dating profile and that someone
is married.

463
00:24:02,080 --> 00:24:05,160
Elizabeth, that is not within my
purview. It's Detective Smolin.

464
00:24:06,520 --> 00:24:08,220
I know I shouldn't say anything.

465
00:24:08,560 --> 00:24:12,760
His personal life is none of my
business. But he's been so on edge

466
00:24:12,760 --> 00:24:17,260
lately. I mean, more so than usual. And
it's affecting his work.

467
00:24:17,740 --> 00:24:18,740
You're right.

468
00:24:19,340 --> 00:24:20,600
This isn't your business.

469
00:24:20,820 --> 00:24:24,500
And Smollett is no more thorny than
usual, so there's no problem there.

470
00:24:24,720 --> 00:24:26,460
But I'm worried about him. Are you?

471
00:24:26,760 --> 00:24:31,720
Or are you just a bit excited to have a
good piece of gossip and needed somebody

472
00:24:31,720 --> 00:24:32,720
to take it to?

473
00:24:33,480 --> 00:24:35,540
I have no comment. I'll see myself out.

474
00:24:35,760 --> 00:24:36,760
Mm-hmm.

475
00:24:37,640 --> 00:24:39,980
As she leaves, Wagner grabs his phone.

476
00:24:41,260 --> 00:24:42,260
He makes a call.

477
00:24:45,580 --> 00:24:47,800
Claudia, are you sitting down?

478
00:24:48,320 --> 00:24:51,900
Elspeth joins Hackett and Smullen. Okay,
I got something.

479
00:24:52,380 --> 00:24:55,820
Now, I went through all of Casey
Arthur's albums, going back to, like,

480
00:24:55,820 --> 00:24:59,760
the early aughts. He wasn't bad, but he
also was not good.

481
00:24:59,980 --> 00:25:05,220
Anyway, I found the same name on every
album. A guy who goes by the name Viper

482
00:25:05,220 --> 00:25:06,220
played the drums.

483
00:25:06,440 --> 00:25:08,980
And I looked him up. He lives in
Brooklyn.

484
00:25:09,400 --> 00:25:11,340
Ooh, good thinking.

485
00:25:11,840 --> 00:25:15,440
Maybe Viper can tell us more about
Casey's personal life.

486
00:25:16,660 --> 00:25:17,660
I'm sorry.

487
00:25:18,280 --> 00:25:20,480
Are our ideas funny to you?

488
00:25:21,840 --> 00:25:22,960
Not at all.

489
00:25:23,400 --> 00:25:27,580
It sounds like you want to establish a
stronger connection between Serena and

490
00:25:27,580 --> 00:25:31,680
Casey. We do, and thank you for seeing
our perspective.

491
00:25:32,580 --> 00:25:39,460
I think that Serena might have used Luke
as a cover for a crime she

492
00:25:39,460 --> 00:25:44,780
committed. Okay, but respectfully, how
would Serena know that Luke would

493
00:25:44,780 --> 00:25:47,280
assault Casey? Luke only had to
confront.

494
00:25:47,900 --> 00:25:51,360
Casey, which Serena knew he would, based
on past behavior.

495
00:25:51,600 --> 00:25:52,940
The fistfight was just lucky.

496
00:25:53,940 --> 00:25:58,860
But I acknowledge your concerns,
respectfully.

497
00:26:00,920 --> 00:26:05,760
Why are you guys talking like that? You
sound like you're in a hostage

498
00:26:05,760 --> 00:26:08,040
negotiation. Some days it feels that
way.

499
00:26:08,360 --> 00:26:14,500
Okay, well, um, Viper is free today, so
who wants to question him? Oh.

500
00:26:14,920 --> 00:26:15,920
You two go.

501
00:26:16,560 --> 00:26:17,580
I've got an appointment.

502
00:26:17,980 --> 00:26:19,620
Elspeth and Hackett meet with Viper.

503
00:26:20,560 --> 00:26:22,820
Yeah, I remember Serena.

504
00:26:23,220 --> 00:26:24,220
She's a dead Casey.

505
00:26:24,580 --> 00:26:26,380
Man, I'm really bummed out by the news.

506
00:26:27,280 --> 00:26:28,280
He was a good guy.

507
00:26:28,660 --> 00:26:31,120
We're so sorry for your loss, Viper.

508
00:26:31,480 --> 00:26:32,840
You can just call me Jeff.

509
00:26:34,280 --> 00:26:38,720
Do you remember, Jeff, how long Casey
and Serena were together?

510
00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:40,120
Oh, they were on and off for years.

511
00:26:40,730 --> 00:26:41,569
Yeah, it was intense.

512
00:26:41,570 --> 00:26:45,330
One time, she took a six-hour Greyhound
bus just so you could spend one night

513
00:26:45,330 --> 00:26:49,450
with him. He used to go camping down
south, and she would call me in tears

514
00:26:49,450 --> 00:26:50,450
trying to get a hold of him.

515
00:26:50,750 --> 00:26:53,930
Casey never had a cell phone. Why didn't
he have a cell phone? He was an analog

516
00:26:53,930 --> 00:26:56,110
guy. He only played acoustic.

517
00:26:56,510 --> 00:26:58,630
I used to tease him for only having a
landline.

518
00:26:58,870 --> 00:27:00,390
He only got a cell phone in 2014.

519
00:27:00,930 --> 00:27:02,690
It's the year my daughter was born.

520
00:27:03,570 --> 00:27:04,570
2014?

521
00:27:07,330 --> 00:27:09,070
Serena was running her private practice.

522
00:27:09,470 --> 00:27:12,850
By then, she told us they only dated
when she was in grad school.

523
00:27:13,250 --> 00:27:18,010
So why was her number in Casey's first
cell phone five years later?

524
00:27:18,290 --> 00:27:20,290
Because she lied about losing touch with
him.

525
00:27:20,670 --> 00:27:23,590
Do you think it's possible that Serena
and Casey were still seeing each other?

526
00:27:23,810 --> 00:27:27,110
Well, Casey was moving back to New York,
so I'd be surprised if they weren't.

527
00:27:27,470 --> 00:27:28,750
But those two were toxic.

528
00:27:29,010 --> 00:27:33,050
It was like they were addicted to each
other. You know, it is kind of wild that

529
00:27:33,050 --> 00:27:35,410
Serena's this big relationship guru now.

530
00:27:36,140 --> 00:27:39,360
I mean, back then, she seemed like a
total mess.

531
00:27:40,100 --> 00:27:41,720
Elspeth and Hackett share a smile.

532
00:27:42,060 --> 00:27:45,320
From his office doorway, Wagner watches
Smullen at his desk.

533
00:27:45,780 --> 00:27:46,780
Elspeth walks by.

534
00:27:48,200 --> 00:27:49,660
Psst, Elspeth.

535
00:27:50,520 --> 00:27:51,520
Here.

536
00:27:52,020 --> 00:27:53,700
He beckons her into his office.

537
00:27:55,800 --> 00:27:58,640
Claudia spoke to Sally Smullen. It's
worse than I thought.

538
00:27:58,940 --> 00:28:00,940
She left Bobby.

539
00:28:01,550 --> 00:28:05,110
And now she's off on some kind of
journey of self-discovery with her

540
00:28:05,110 --> 00:28:06,029
divorced girlfriends.

541
00:28:06,030 --> 00:28:07,310
So he's not cheating on her?

542
00:28:07,510 --> 00:28:09,310
No. They're officially separated.

543
00:28:09,570 --> 00:28:11,950
And according to Sally, he's not taking
it well.

544
00:28:12,190 --> 00:28:16,010
Oh. I hope you're not making him read
that. Might seem insensitive.

545
00:28:16,350 --> 00:28:19,450
No. I'm just doing a deep dive on
Serena's work.

546
00:28:20,090 --> 00:28:24,690
But now Detective Smullen's bad attitude
is suddenly making more sense.

547
00:28:24,910 --> 00:28:28,650
Oh, he's secretly heartbroken. And I've
been dragging him to marriage

548
00:28:28,650 --> 00:28:31,010
counseling. Don't beat yourself up. You
didn't know.

549
00:28:36,379 --> 00:28:37,560
Oh. Bobby's tough.

550
00:28:38,300 --> 00:28:39,300
He'll pull through.

551
00:28:44,940 --> 00:28:45,940
Luke,

552
00:28:52,380 --> 00:28:56,480
what is it? I'm freaking out. What did
you tell the police about me? Take a

553
00:28:56,480 --> 00:28:59,080
breath. Everything is... Everything is
okay.

554
00:29:01,610 --> 00:29:03,330
I am so glad you called.

555
00:29:04,070 --> 00:29:05,590
Serena arrives at the precinct.

556
00:29:06,070 --> 00:29:07,070
Excuse me.

557
00:29:07,110 --> 00:29:08,490
I need to report a threat.

558
00:29:08,790 --> 00:29:09,950
Serena, what happened?

559
00:29:10,190 --> 00:29:14,930
Luke Prescott called me last night in a
rage, demanding to know what I told you

560
00:29:14,930 --> 00:29:17,830
about him. I don't feel safe. Why
haven't you arrested him for the murder

561
00:29:17,830 --> 00:29:22,130
yet? I wish I could answer that question
for you. Kat, if we keep dragging our

562
00:29:22,130 --> 00:29:23,910
feet on this, we're going to have blood
on our hands.

563
00:29:24,730 --> 00:29:26,670
How comfortable are you getting Luke to
talk?

564
00:29:26,930 --> 00:29:28,350
I can get anyone to talk.

565
00:29:28,550 --> 00:29:29,890
Why? We need your help.

566
00:29:30,730 --> 00:29:32,090
Put a car outside of Luke's apartment.

567
00:29:32,470 --> 00:29:34,790
Let's get Miss Collier on a controlled
call.

568
00:29:35,230 --> 00:29:36,270
Are you okay with that?

569
00:29:36,770 --> 00:29:37,770
Legally, yes.

570
00:29:38,250 --> 00:29:39,790
He already waived privilege.

571
00:29:40,270 --> 00:29:41,270
Good.

572
00:29:41,410 --> 00:29:43,150
Maybe he'll say something we can use.

573
00:29:43,410 --> 00:29:45,210
Oh, I would love to hear that
conversation.

574
00:29:45,810 --> 00:29:47,250
Hackett connects Serena's phone.

575
00:29:47,770 --> 00:29:50,570
So he'll see your regular number come
up. He won't know we're reporting.

576
00:29:50,830 --> 00:29:52,970
Detective Smollin will give you a couple
questions to help steer the

577
00:29:52,970 --> 00:29:56,830
conversation. Sound good? Of course.
Whatever you need to put that disturbed

578
00:29:56,830 --> 00:29:57,830
man behind bars.

579
00:29:58,150 --> 00:29:59,150
That was about that.

580
00:29:59,690 --> 00:30:00,850
Take two steps back.

581
00:30:01,870 --> 00:30:05,310
Please? There's a real
will-they-won't-they vibe between you

582
00:30:05,310 --> 00:30:06,810
two. Have you explored it yet?

583
00:30:07,130 --> 00:30:08,630
No. We're happily married.

584
00:30:09,070 --> 00:30:10,070
Oh, really?

585
00:30:10,210 --> 00:30:12,230
Your wife let you out of the house in
that shirt?

586
00:30:12,730 --> 00:30:13,910
Are we good here?

587
00:30:15,050 --> 00:30:18,110
Hackett gives a thumbs up, then makes
the call from Serena's phone.

588
00:30:21,230 --> 00:30:23,030
Hey, Serena. Hi, Luke.

589
00:30:23,370 --> 00:30:28,230
I wanted to check on you. You were so
distraught last night, and I just...

590
00:30:28,560 --> 00:30:31,940
I wanted to tell you how proud I am that
you're handling it so well, especially

591
00:30:31,940 --> 00:30:33,680
the news between Lauren and Steve.

592
00:30:34,280 --> 00:30:36,220
Yeah. Wait, what about Steve?

593
00:30:37,440 --> 00:30:44,440
Oh, I assume the police told you?
Lauren's been having an

594
00:30:44,440 --> 00:30:45,440
affair with Steve.

595
00:30:45,540 --> 00:30:46,539
My business partner?

596
00:30:46,540 --> 00:30:47,540
That Steve?

597
00:30:48,060 --> 00:30:53,140
I'll kill him! No, no, no, no, no. Hold
on. Remember the work, Luke. You can't

598
00:30:53,140 --> 00:30:54,300
keep killing people.

599
00:30:56,350 --> 00:31:00,150
It's a good thing that we had an officer
there. Otherwise, Steve might have wound

600
00:31:00,150 --> 00:31:03,910
up like Casey. And the DA says that it's
good to charge her for medicine and for

601
00:31:03,910 --> 00:31:04,749
Casey's murder.

602
00:31:04,750 --> 00:31:06,510
And I guess that's that.

603
00:31:06,790 --> 00:31:08,770
Do you mind if I have a word with him?

604
00:31:08,970 --> 00:31:09,669
Uh, no.

605
00:31:09,670 --> 00:31:11,550
How about it? Luke sits in a cell.

606
00:31:12,110 --> 00:31:13,110
Hi, Luke.

607
00:31:13,970 --> 00:31:15,950
I'm so sorry to hear about Lauren and
Steve.

608
00:31:16,290 --> 00:31:17,470
I think we've hit a new low.

609
00:31:18,650 --> 00:31:21,790
Can I ask you a personal question?

610
00:31:22,350 --> 00:31:25,710
Does Lauren always admit when she...

611
00:31:26,540 --> 00:31:27,540
Steps out on you.

612
00:31:28,020 --> 00:31:31,480
Eventually. Yeah. She does it on
purpose, to hurt me.

613
00:31:31,740 --> 00:31:33,180
I'm no prince, believe me.

614
00:31:33,460 --> 00:31:36,160
But she still hasn't admitted to dating
Casey.

615
00:31:36,440 --> 00:31:38,700
No. Casey wouldn't admit it either.

616
00:31:38,960 --> 00:31:40,020
Said he didn't know her.

617
00:31:40,480 --> 00:31:41,480
Full of excuses.

618
00:31:41,900 --> 00:31:45,920
He swore that his ex-girlfriend sent
that text. That she was some kind of

619
00:31:45,920 --> 00:31:50,140
psycho. His ex-girlfriend? Would you be
willing to put that in a statement?

620
00:31:50,380 --> 00:31:53,020
Sure. Kind of like it matters. I'm going
down for this murder.

621
00:31:53,580 --> 00:31:54,920
Which I didn't do, by the way.

622
00:31:55,390 --> 00:31:56,950
I always knew Lauren and I were doomed.

623
00:31:57,150 --> 00:31:58,150
Why is that?

624
00:31:58,470 --> 00:31:59,990
We bring out the worst in each other.

625
00:32:00,630 --> 00:32:05,210
I love my wife, but sometimes I wish I
never met her.

626
00:32:05,610 --> 00:32:09,790
I worked with a couple who we'll call
Sam and Diane.

627
00:32:10,070 --> 00:32:15,690
Their love story spanned decades and was
one of the most powerful connections I

628
00:32:15,690 --> 00:32:16,690
have ever observed.

629
00:32:16,950 --> 00:32:19,950
During their many breaks, Diane...

630
00:32:20,810 --> 00:32:26,470
would put on the one gift that Sam had
given her, a piece of artisan jewelry.

631
00:32:26,870 --> 00:32:29,270
She would hold it... Elsbeth and the
others watch.

632
00:32:29,670 --> 00:32:31,210
Like it was his touch.

633
00:32:31,610 --> 00:32:36,510
Her friends called her pathetic and
delusional, but Diane knew she and Sam

634
00:32:36,510 --> 00:32:38,610
would find their way back to each other.

635
00:32:38,830 --> 00:32:44,130
Their love bond was dysfunctional, but
it was real.

636
00:32:44,510 --> 00:32:45,850
Elsbeth pauses the video.

637
00:32:46,230 --> 00:32:47,230
Don't you get it?

638
00:32:47,490 --> 00:32:49,030
Sam and Diane...

639
00:32:49,450 --> 00:32:52,190
are Casey and Serena. What does this
have to do with the murder?

640
00:32:52,470 --> 00:32:56,290
Casey's drummer said that Casey was
planning a move back to New York, which

641
00:32:56,290 --> 00:32:58,950
might explain why Serena snapped.

642
00:32:59,170 --> 00:33:04,750
Their love was so toxic, his presence
drove her mad.

643
00:33:05,090 --> 00:33:08,710
It also sounds like Sam only ever bought
Diane one gift in their time together,

644
00:33:08,850 --> 00:33:11,370
which alone is reason for murder.

645
00:33:11,690 --> 00:33:14,210
We already booked Luke Prescott. The
case is closed.

646
00:33:14,650 --> 00:33:18,910
But what if Serena's involved too? What
if she pushed Luke, her former patient,

647
00:33:19,030 --> 00:33:20,030
to commit the crime?

648
00:33:20,110 --> 00:33:23,790
Shouldn't we know now? Before Luke's
lawyer finds the same connection and

649
00:33:23,790 --> 00:33:25,570
derails the prosecution's case?

650
00:33:25,870 --> 00:33:26,870
All right.

651
00:33:27,350 --> 00:33:30,070
You have one more chance to talk to her.
That's all I need.

652
00:33:30,290 --> 00:33:31,350
Where's Detective Smullen?

653
00:33:32,110 --> 00:33:33,130
He had an appointment.

654
00:33:34,190 --> 00:33:35,190
I didn't pry.

655
00:33:36,230 --> 00:33:38,730
Take Officer Hackett. Elspeth and
Hackett, high five.

656
00:33:39,050 --> 00:33:40,050
Let's go.

657
00:33:40,070 --> 00:33:42,510
Oh, no. Oh, I hope we're not
interrupting dinner.

658
00:33:42,890 --> 00:33:43,890
Not at all.

659
00:33:43,910 --> 00:33:47,450
I like to have a little something ready
for Serena when she gets home. So sweet.

660
00:33:47,970 --> 00:33:49,090
Is that your secret?

661
00:33:49,430 --> 00:33:51,810
Doing acts of kindness for each other?

662
00:33:52,170 --> 00:33:53,170
And keeping things fresh.

663
00:33:53,590 --> 00:33:57,070
The other night, Serena came home with a
French maid's costume on under her

664
00:33:57,070 --> 00:34:00,130
jacket. It wasn't even a special
occasion, just an ordinary Monday night.

665
00:34:00,390 --> 00:34:02,410
Oh, I won't ask what you do on weekends.

666
00:34:03,990 --> 00:34:07,830
Um, just this past Monday night? Mm-hmm.

667
00:34:08,300 --> 00:34:13,080
It's funny, Serena told us that she was
out serenity walking on Monday night.

668
00:34:13,239 --> 00:34:16,500
Would she really take a long walk while
wearing lingerie?

669
00:34:16,760 --> 00:34:19,840
I don't ask questions. Another secret to
our happiness.

670
00:34:20,460 --> 00:34:21,500
Here she is.

671
00:34:21,920 --> 00:34:22,980
I'll leave you to it.

672
00:34:23,199 --> 00:34:24,199
You're back.

673
00:34:25,460 --> 00:34:27,120
You really are a fan.

674
00:34:27,460 --> 00:34:28,820
Oh, I am.

675
00:34:30,020 --> 00:34:32,980
My son is getting married.

676
00:34:34,219 --> 00:34:36,719
And it would mean so much.

677
00:34:37,440 --> 00:34:43,600
If you sign this for him and his fiance,
their names are Teddy and Roy. Is that

678
00:34:43,600 --> 00:34:45,500
all you came for?

679
00:34:46,199 --> 00:34:50,199
Oh, no, no. We also wanted to thank you
for helping us arrest Luke.

680
00:34:50,440 --> 00:34:52,600
I think the case is officially closed.

681
00:34:52,860 --> 00:34:54,000
Oh, I'll drink to that.

682
00:34:54,260 --> 00:34:57,240
Anyone else? Oh, no, thank you. We're on
duty.

683
00:34:57,660 --> 00:35:00,080
Whoa, you like your wine cold.

684
00:35:00,440 --> 00:35:03,480
Oh, Graham puts it in the freezer to
chill for me. Oh.

685
00:35:04,890 --> 00:35:08,550
You know what? I don't think I
complimented you enough on this book.

686
00:35:08,830 --> 00:35:10,390
I just finished reading it, and wow.

687
00:35:10,630 --> 00:35:14,470
What you achieved with some of these
couples is incredible.

688
00:35:15,510 --> 00:35:19,950
There's one case that really stands out.

689
00:35:20,510 --> 00:35:22,290
Sam and Diane.

690
00:35:22,730 --> 00:35:23,730
Like the couple from Cheers.

691
00:35:23,950 --> 00:35:24,950
I don't watch television.

692
00:35:25,050 --> 00:35:27,190
Oh. Well, you should.

693
00:35:27,770 --> 00:35:29,010
Some of them's great.

694
00:35:29,370 --> 00:35:30,269
Yeah.

695
00:35:30,270 --> 00:35:33,630
But I don't quite understand this.

696
00:35:34,410 --> 00:35:38,090
Sam and Diane's relationship, or
whatever it was. It's more of a

697
00:35:38,090 --> 00:35:40,190
situation-ship, as the kids say.

698
00:35:40,430 --> 00:35:43,170
Yeah, I mean, it doesn't seem like you
made any progress with them at all.

699
00:35:43,430 --> 00:35:45,790
Oh, well, not every relationship can be
salvaged.

700
00:35:46,050 --> 00:35:49,910
Some people push each other to the brink
over and over again.

701
00:35:50,110 --> 00:35:51,110
That's funny.

702
00:35:51,430 --> 00:35:56,070
The people we talked to described your
relationship with Casey in the exact

703
00:35:56,070 --> 00:35:58,330
same way. What did Jeff call it again?

704
00:35:58,590 --> 00:35:59,790
Uh, toxic.

705
00:36:00,090 --> 00:36:01,090
Like an addiction.

706
00:36:01,210 --> 00:36:02,210
Just like Sam and Diane.

707
00:36:02,510 --> 00:36:03,510
Any correlation?

708
00:36:04,000 --> 00:36:05,220
I never write about myself.

709
00:36:05,520 --> 00:36:08,880
The truth is, Sam and Diane are an
amalgamation of several different

710
00:36:08,880 --> 00:36:11,900
couples I treated. Their chemistry is
not uncommon.

711
00:36:12,340 --> 00:36:13,340
Really?

712
00:36:13,880 --> 00:36:14,880
Gosh.

713
00:36:15,260 --> 00:36:20,520
I didn't realize that so many people
debased themselves like that.

714
00:36:21,100 --> 00:36:26,040
Because Diane... She made a total fool
of herself.

715
00:36:26,400 --> 00:36:27,760
All in the name of love.

716
00:36:28,440 --> 00:36:30,280
Not that I'd call what they had love.

717
00:36:31,000 --> 00:36:33,100
More like sexually transmitted insanity.

718
00:36:34,000 --> 00:36:35,180
Are you all right?

719
00:36:35,520 --> 00:36:37,840
Went down the wrong way.

720
00:36:38,120 --> 00:36:41,820
As they eye each other, Serena sips her
wine and Elsbeth bites the carrot.

721
00:36:42,600 --> 00:36:44,300
Daytime in Elsbeth's office.

722
00:36:44,660 --> 00:36:47,840
Wow. Thank you, Mom. This is unexpected.

723
00:36:48,940 --> 00:36:50,740
She gives Serena's book to Teddy.

724
00:36:51,020 --> 00:36:53,180
Roy, say something about us? Of course
not.

725
00:36:53,420 --> 00:36:57,740
I just thought it would be nice to have
on hand in case you hit a rough patch.

726
00:36:58,260 --> 00:37:00,780
And, um... Since you haven't yet.

727
00:37:01,720 --> 00:37:02,720
May 1st.

728
00:37:02,940 --> 00:37:04,180
You happy now? May?

729
00:37:04,380 --> 00:37:05,720
That is wonderful.

730
00:37:06,900 --> 00:37:09,680
That is exactly in my color season.

731
00:37:10,200 --> 00:37:11,200
I'm a bright spring.

732
00:37:11,860 --> 00:37:16,520
Well, yeah, that was at the top of my
mind when we picked it. So I got to go.

733
00:37:16,980 --> 00:37:20,500
But by the way, Grandma says you haven't
been returning any of her calls.

734
00:37:21,350 --> 00:37:22,950
Oh, I've just been busy.

735
00:37:23,190 --> 00:37:25,810
Well, maybe you could work out
whatever's going on between the two of

736
00:37:25,810 --> 00:37:28,050
you, preferably before the wedding stuff
starts.

737
00:37:28,430 --> 00:37:29,770
Nothing's going on. Don't worry.

738
00:37:30,330 --> 00:37:31,330
If you say so.

739
00:37:31,590 --> 00:37:32,830
Okay. Love you.

740
00:37:33,070 --> 00:37:33,848
Love you.

741
00:37:33,850 --> 00:37:34,850
Elvis.

742
00:37:35,370 --> 00:37:39,550
Detective Smolin, I got something on
Casey Arthurs. Casey Arthurs? I thought

743
00:37:39,550 --> 00:37:40,550
I closed this case.

744
00:37:40,770 --> 00:37:45,370
Yeah, you did. But then Elspeth had the
brilliant idea to follow up on that

745
00:37:45,370 --> 00:37:48,770
bottle of white wine we found in Casey's
freezer. Turns out they sell it at a

746
00:37:48,770 --> 00:37:50,590
specialty wine shop in Casey's
neighborhood.

747
00:37:50,810 --> 00:37:54,630
I got the surveillance footage, so this
is from two days before the murder.

748
00:37:54,750 --> 00:37:55,669
Look.

749
00:37:55,670 --> 00:37:56,670
That's Serena.

750
00:37:56,910 --> 00:38:02,260
Okay, I don't mean to rain on your good
police work. However... All that proves

751
00:38:02,260 --> 00:38:05,860
is that she was having an affair with
Casey. It doesn't tie her to the murder,

752
00:38:05,960 --> 00:38:07,280
unlike Luke, who's already been charged.

753
00:38:07,580 --> 00:38:10,460
Wait, scroll it back a bit. Serena opens
her wallet.

754
00:38:11,100 --> 00:38:14,480
Maybe we can tie it to the murder.

755
00:38:14,920 --> 00:38:16,260
I know, it's just a wine bottle.

756
00:38:16,800 --> 00:38:18,100
That's not what I'm looking at.

757
00:38:21,780 --> 00:38:25,280
I guess I just wanted to tell you in
person after everything you've done.

758
00:38:25,600 --> 00:38:30,480
I just did my job, and I am sorry that
it wasn't enough.

759
00:38:31,040 --> 00:38:32,040
No, I'm sorry.

760
00:38:32,440 --> 00:38:37,200
I always thought of myself as, like,
this pretty strong person, but...

761
00:38:37,200 --> 00:38:43,360
I'm sitting there in the courtroom, and
everybody's looking at me like I'm some

762
00:38:43,360 --> 00:38:45,120
drunk whore. That's not true.

763
00:38:45,420 --> 00:38:46,420
It is.

764
00:38:50,080 --> 00:38:53,680
I mean, some of them thought so on the
jury.

765
00:39:05,230 --> 00:39:07,590
I... I just can't do it again.

766
00:39:08,970 --> 00:39:15,550
And... I know I'm disappointing you.
Listen to me. You're not disappointing

767
00:39:15,550 --> 00:39:16,550
me.

768
00:39:16,850 --> 00:39:23,290
It's actually the opposite. I'm amazed
by you. You are... You are an incredibly

769
00:39:23,290 --> 00:39:24,590
strong woman.

770
00:39:25,370 --> 00:39:29,510
And I'm not going to sit here and lie to
you and tell you that another trial

771
00:39:29,510 --> 00:39:31,190
would be easier because...

772
00:39:31,730 --> 00:39:34,270
Because it would probably be harder.

773
00:39:37,350 --> 00:39:40,370
And you've been through something
incredibly difficult.

774
00:39:41,450 --> 00:39:42,630
And you're still here.

775
00:39:51,850 --> 00:39:53,710
Maybe I should have just, and I passed
out.

776
00:40:01,720 --> 00:40:05,520
It's just, like, kind of messed up that
the truth doesn't always matter.

777
00:40:23,060 --> 00:40:24,060
Hi.

778
00:40:24,180 --> 00:40:27,380
Gwen, what are you doing here? Oh, I had
to meet a client downstairs.

779
00:40:28,360 --> 00:40:29,820
Listen, I heard about the mistrial.

780
00:40:30,300 --> 00:40:32,820
Oh, yeah. I thought you might want to
drown your sorrows a little.

781
00:40:37,180 --> 00:40:39,720
I think the stay-at-home mom was one of
the holdouts.

782
00:40:40,460 --> 00:40:41,980
And the old guy with the missing tooth.

783
00:40:42,460 --> 00:40:45,820
He didn't like your ADA. Well, all of
this information is super helpful after

784
00:40:45,820 --> 00:40:47,340
the fact, so thank you so much for that.

785
00:40:48,220 --> 00:40:49,720
Listen, I was rooting for you.

786
00:40:50,220 --> 00:40:51,220
I've been wrong before.

787
00:40:52,780 --> 00:40:54,520
You always take your losses so hard?

788
00:40:54,820 --> 00:40:56,660
No, I don't.

789
00:40:58,250 --> 00:40:59,690
What's so special about this one?

790
00:41:02,870 --> 00:41:08,490
I've been doing this work for almost 30
years, and most of the time I convince

791
00:41:08,490 --> 00:41:13,370
myself that even when a case goes south,
that it's the fight that matters.

792
00:41:14,450 --> 00:41:16,630
That's a nice way of thinking about it.

793
00:41:16,850 --> 00:41:17,850
Yeah.

794
00:41:20,250 --> 00:41:26,790
We don't stop anything. We don't prevent
a crime from happening.

795
00:41:28,200 --> 00:41:30,240
We just pick up the pieces afterwards.

796
00:41:30,940 --> 00:41:32,720
That's always been the case, hasn't it?

797
00:41:33,620 --> 00:41:38,800
You didn't pick anti-crime, you chose
SVU. That is true. It is true.

798
00:41:39,800 --> 00:41:42,080
So, what's changed?

799
00:41:44,980 --> 00:41:48,480
That is the problem, is that nothing has
changed.

800
00:41:49,400 --> 00:41:54,540
We're 30 years in and a jury gets to
decide that if a woman drinks too much,

801
00:41:54,600 --> 00:41:56,240
then she deserves to be raped.

802
00:41:58,009 --> 00:41:59,009
That is the problem.

803
00:42:00,350 --> 00:42:01,350
Yeah.

804
00:42:02,390 --> 00:42:03,390
That's hard.

805
00:42:05,470 --> 00:42:06,590
How do you deal with that?

806
00:42:10,750 --> 00:42:12,270
You know, the work used to be enough.

807
00:42:15,170 --> 00:42:20,970
My old partner used violence to deal
with it. He used to get physical with

808
00:42:20,970 --> 00:42:25,990
the suspects, but that took a toll on
him, too. I mean, maybe there is no good

809
00:42:25,990 --> 00:42:26,990
way.

810
00:42:32,810 --> 00:42:38,490
So, I have a personal history with the
type of crimes you investigate.

811
00:42:39,030 --> 00:42:43,390
It's a story for another time, but what
I can say is you're right.

812
00:42:43,890 --> 00:42:47,450
The world hasn't changed much in 30
years, and certainly the perps haven't.

813
00:42:48,430 --> 00:42:51,650
So, what can you do about it? Quit?

814
00:42:54,290 --> 00:42:55,290
No.

815
00:42:56,150 --> 00:42:58,870
No, I'm not ready to quit.

816
00:42:59,230 --> 00:43:00,230
Okay.

817
00:43:00,680 --> 00:43:03,160
then the only other option is to fight.

818
00:43:04,580 --> 00:43:05,860
Just fight different.

819
00:43:29,260 --> 00:43:31,280
Late night visits gonna be a regular
thing for you, Captain?

820
00:43:31,740 --> 00:43:33,600
Look, I need an arrest warrant.

821
00:43:34,920 --> 00:43:35,920
For whom?

822
00:43:36,380 --> 00:43:37,760
Josh Berger's mother, Stephanie.

823
00:43:38,620 --> 00:43:39,620
On what charge?

824
00:43:40,180 --> 00:43:41,940
Tampering and obstruction of justice.

825
00:43:42,840 --> 00:43:43,840
Hold on.

826
00:43:45,080 --> 00:43:47,620
Berger's mother cooperated. She handed
over evidence.

827
00:43:47,820 --> 00:43:48,820
The charges will never stick.

828
00:43:51,260 --> 00:43:53,380
And you can just arrest her yourself.
You need a warrant from me.

829
00:43:53,920 --> 00:43:55,600
I'd like to go through the proper
channels.

830
00:43:57,839 --> 00:44:00,560
You want to use her to get her son to
flip.

831
00:44:02,020 --> 00:44:05,580
You want to arrest someone, you know, to
be innocent, to pressure their child.

832
00:44:06,060 --> 00:44:09,280
And you came to the new dumb ADA because
you know Carisi wouldn't go for it. I

833
00:44:09,280 --> 00:44:11,440
don't need an ethics lecture from you.

834
00:44:12,380 --> 00:44:13,380
I'm not lecturing.

835
00:44:14,960 --> 00:44:16,480
It's a great idea. Mob tactics.

836
00:44:16,820 --> 00:44:19,100
If you can't get the guy, go after the
family.

837
00:44:21,800 --> 00:44:23,080
You surprised me, Hawkins.

838
00:44:24,620 --> 00:44:27,900
I might suggest adding a conspiracy to
commit rape charge.

839
00:44:28,240 --> 00:44:30,820
Want a pressure burger? That ought to do
it.

840
00:44:33,400 --> 00:44:34,420
By all means.

841
00:44:36,120 --> 00:44:37,120
Come in.

842
00:44:40,980 --> 00:44:45,040
Remember, the grass isn't always greener
on the other side.

843
00:44:45,440 --> 00:44:48,680
The grass is greener where you water it.
In the sanctuary.

844
00:44:49,000 --> 00:44:51,000
Everybody out. Police business.

845
00:44:51,400 --> 00:44:52,400
Excuse me.

846
00:44:52,830 --> 00:44:55,370
Come on, everyone. Let's go, folks. What
is going on here?

847
00:44:55,630 --> 00:44:58,850
We're here about the murder of Casey
Arthurs. I thought you already made an

848
00:44:58,850 --> 00:45:00,730
arrest. Well, there's new evidence.

849
00:45:01,450 --> 00:45:08,330
Elsbeth? We know Sam and Diane from your
book are based on you and Casey.

850
00:45:08,590 --> 00:45:14,010
Just like their toxic connection, you
loved Casey so much.

851
00:45:14,410 --> 00:45:15,650
It hurt.

852
00:45:16,350 --> 00:45:20,190
But his return to New York threatened
everything you'd established in his

853
00:45:20,190 --> 00:45:22,090
absence. Most of all, peace.

854
00:45:22,730 --> 00:45:25,770
So you eliminated temptation.

855
00:45:26,410 --> 00:45:29,790
I told you we are not Sam and Diane.

856
00:45:30,210 --> 00:45:34,830
Aren't you, though? Diane dressed up for
Sam, just like that French maid costume

857
00:45:34,830 --> 00:45:39,050
you wore the night of the murder.
Probably to clean any trace of yourself

858
00:45:39,050 --> 00:45:41,750
from his apartment. You used Luke as
a...

859
00:45:42,090 --> 00:45:46,530
Fall guy, despite there being no
connection between Lauren and Casey.

860
00:45:47,110 --> 00:45:51,250
Casey even so looked that he thought his
ex-girlfriend had something to do with

861
00:45:51,250 --> 00:45:56,350
it. And we have surveillance video of
you buying the same bottle of wine we

862
00:45:56,350 --> 00:45:57,370
found in Casey's apartment.

863
00:45:57,830 --> 00:45:58,950
That doesn't prove anything.

864
00:45:59,210 --> 00:46:00,410
On its own, no.

865
00:46:00,690 --> 00:46:05,750
But just like Diane, you have a
sentimental attachment to the one gift

866
00:46:05,750 --> 00:46:10,330
that Casey gave you, which you are
wearing in this video.

867
00:46:11,180 --> 00:46:16,820
A bracelet from Costa Rica, which your
sweet, trusting husband, Graham, found

868
00:46:16,820 --> 00:46:17,479
for us.

869
00:46:17,480 --> 00:46:22,220
And unfortunately for you, it has traces
of Casey's blood and gun residue on it.

870
00:46:22,960 --> 00:46:27,020
Serena Collier, you are under arrest for
the murder of Casey Arthurs.

871
00:46:27,260 --> 00:46:29,060
Oh, he ruined my life.

872
00:46:29,360 --> 00:46:32,440
I wish I never met him, but I still love
him.

873
00:46:32,840 --> 00:46:34,040
What about your husband?

874
00:46:34,260 --> 00:46:35,620
He's so good to you.

875
00:46:35,940 --> 00:46:37,240
He's boring.

876
00:46:37,600 --> 00:46:38,880
He's boring.

877
00:46:39,200 --> 00:46:40,800
There, I said it.

878
00:46:41,100 --> 00:46:43,220
He's so boring, I could die.

879
00:46:43,580 --> 00:46:44,580
All right, come on.

880
00:46:44,720 --> 00:46:47,740
Wait, did Casey really call me his
girlfriend?

881
00:46:48,660 --> 00:46:51,120
Did he say, tell me what he said
exactly?

882
00:46:51,500 --> 00:46:53,420
Wagner stands in his office with his
wife.

883
00:46:53,980 --> 00:46:56,960
I'm impressed that you got reservations
on such short notice.

884
00:46:57,240 --> 00:46:59,400
What can I say? I know people who know
people.

885
00:47:00,300 --> 00:47:02,660
And it's been a while since we had a
special night out.

886
00:47:03,620 --> 00:47:04,620
She smiles.

887
00:47:05,100 --> 00:47:07,020
Been thinking about Bobby and Sally,
huh?

888
00:47:07,680 --> 00:47:08,680
Yeah.

889
00:47:09,230 --> 00:47:11,550
It's so strange seeing old friends break
up.

890
00:47:12,190 --> 00:47:13,890
Well, these things happen.

891
00:47:14,170 --> 00:47:15,490
He looks into her eyes.

892
00:47:18,130 --> 00:47:19,230
To other people?

893
00:47:19,990 --> 00:47:20,990
Yeah.

894
00:47:21,590 --> 00:47:22,590
She smiles.

895
00:47:23,090 --> 00:47:24,210
Shall we? Yeah.

896
00:47:25,050 --> 00:47:26,050
They head out.

897
00:47:26,610 --> 00:47:27,610
Bobby.

898
00:47:28,030 --> 00:47:34,750
Hi. I was hoping that I'd see you. I
spoke to Sally, and I'm really sorry

899
00:47:34,750 --> 00:47:35,750
about everything.

900
00:47:35,910 --> 00:47:36,910
How are you holding up?

901
00:47:37,150 --> 00:47:38,230
I'm doing okay.

902
00:47:39,250 --> 00:47:42,250
I didn't realize that Sally was telling
people already.

903
00:47:42,550 --> 00:47:45,070
Well, I hope you know that it's not all
your fault.

904
00:47:46,270 --> 00:47:48,430
You know, sometimes people just need a
fresh start.

905
00:47:48,650 --> 00:47:52,090
We'll have you over for dinner soon. Oh,
okay. Great. Good night, Detective.

906
00:47:53,530 --> 00:47:54,970
Wagner leads Claudia away.

907
00:47:56,010 --> 00:47:58,510
Smullen looks around to find Elspeth
standing nearby.

908
00:47:59,730 --> 00:48:00,730
Right.

909
00:48:01,450 --> 00:48:02,450
Great.

910
00:48:03,010 --> 00:48:05,270
Now everybody knows that my wife left
me.

911
00:48:05,570 --> 00:48:06,570
Oh.

912
00:48:06,630 --> 00:48:08,030
If they know, they...

913
00:48:08,250 --> 00:48:09,250
I haven't said anything.

914
00:48:11,190 --> 00:48:13,570
Bobby, separations are hard.

915
00:48:14,150 --> 00:48:15,150
I've been there.

916
00:48:15,610 --> 00:48:18,030
I went to look at apartments yesterday.

917
00:48:18,270 --> 00:48:19,390
That was a rude awakening.

918
00:48:19,890 --> 00:48:24,030
Well, if you ever need someone to talk
to, I'm here.

919
00:48:25,570 --> 00:48:30,770
I might take you up on that. Seems Sally
has taken most of our friends in the

920
00:48:30,770 --> 00:48:31,770
separation.

921
00:48:31,930 --> 00:48:33,730
My ex-husband did the same thing.

922
00:48:34,090 --> 00:48:36,290
He even took some of my own family.

923
00:48:43,300 --> 00:48:44,700
Smullen looks into her eyes.

924
00:48:44,920 --> 00:48:47,000
He nods, then steps away.

925
00:48:48,180 --> 00:48:49,180
Have a good one.

926
00:48:50,600 --> 00:48:51,600
Yeah, see you tomorrow.

927
00:48:53,120 --> 00:48:54,600
Elspeth stares off in thought.
