Previously onTommy...KEN: Arturo Lopez
just got shanked

in county jail.
He's dead. Arturo knew

where a ton of bodies
were buried.

BLAKE: Are you really
not worried about how

Arturo's deathis gonna reflect on you?

No. Arturo had his fingers
in a lot of pies, no doubt.

But the investigation
is gonna show he was killed

by a guy with tattoos
on his knuckles.

I want to talk
to the family

of one of the guys
who killed him.

Turns out they're living
in a new townhome.

An expensive one.

You think the new townhome

was payment for killing Arturo?I don't know.

But I want to find out.

[classical piano music playing]

WOMAN:
Norah, your father is already

on his way to the airport.

We don't wantto keep him waiting.

It's his plane.
They'll wait.

MAN:
The pink diamonds
are from Australia.

This deep shade is very rare.

Norah.

Excuse me, miss?

Are you sure you putall the rings back?

Of course.
Why?

Uh, one is missing.

The Australian pink?

Well, I don't have it.

I'm afraid I'm going to have toask you to stay

until we locate the ring.

WOMAN:Don't be ridiculous.

We have a plane to catch.

Ah.

If you can pleasecheck your pockets.

Are you calling me a thief?

Morning.
What's up?

The young womanwas trying on rings.

One is missing.

I asked herto empty her pockets,

she refused.

I already told you
I don't have your ring.

Maybe you stole it.

This one's yours.

FEMALE OFFICER:
Miss, how about

we go to the back?
No one wants

to embarrass you. You just
have to empty your pockets,

show 'em your purse.Don't touch me.

Easy.Okay, you're under arrest.

Seven million dollars, Art.

I know.For three years.

The Feds have given us a
seven million dollar grant

for community policing.

That's not pocket change.

You know, I can't dig
that out of my couch.

We need the money.Uh-huh.

So... so what's the holdup?

I don't knowif you've noticed, but it's not

business as usual in D.C.

People at Justiceare like abused kids,

scared to do anythingthat makes Dad angry.

Every grant is gettinga serious up and down.

We've got the numbers
to show the program works.

Wha-What else do they need?Well,

you didn't help yourself
by going up against ICE

over thatDe La Puerta woman.

People noticed that.Look,

just sit tight and stay calm...

Yeah, you write me a check
for seven million dollars,

I will show you calm.

See you, Tommy.Thanks.

Len Egan,as I live and breathe.

Hey, Coop.Hey.

EGAN:
Good to see you.

COOPER:
Chief, this is Len Egan.

Used to work homicide for us,
but now he runs

a security business and dressesa lot better than he used to.

Pleased to meet you, Chief.And you.

And this is for you.

Blood in the Gutter.It's a story

about the Crenshaw Fireman case,

which I happened to work.

COOPER:
Guy killed 15 homeless

over ten years in South Central.

Egan collared him
and wrote the book.

I hate the title.
Not my idea.

But what are you gonna do?

Anyway, chapter of

LAPD history
for your bookshelf.Thank you.

Is that why you came by?Actually,
I'd appreciate

a minute, if
you don't mind.

Okay.

I'm working with
a Saudi businessman

named Sheikh Ahmoud Fayed.

About an hour ago,his daughter

got arrested
for hitting a police officer

in the jewelry storeat their hotel.

Some mix-up over a ring
she tried on.

Tried on or tried to steal?

Well, that's the mix-up.

I know how it looks:wealthy family, spoiled girl.

Why is it not that?

'Cause Norah is a good kid.

M... Maybe a little moody,
but that's all.

Even if I wanted to overlook
hitting an officer,

what about
the shoplifting charge?Store's dropped it.

Probably because
the family bought

ten times what
she tried to lift.

Chief, this familyhas money and major flex.

You let this go,things calm down.

Push it,you're kicking a hornet's nest.

Ah. So this is you
doing me a solid.At the end of the day,

this is a nice girl
who messed up.

Do you really want to provoke
a major dust-up

just so you can throwthe book at her?

You say she's sorry?

I want to hear it
from her myself.

Hi. I'm Chief Abigail Thomas.Are you the young lady's mother?

Yes.
Thank you so much for coming.

This is just
a misunderstanding,

and Norah is very sorry.

Well, the officer
found the ring in her pocket.

She took off her ring
to try on the new one.

It got mixed up.

It's hard to see how you get
a $27,000 ring mixed up.

But I understand that the store
is not pursuing the issue,

and I will consider
dropping the assault charge

if your daughter apologizes.

Yes. Of course she will.Okay.

Officer Finley told me that

you were very upsetwhen they got there,

which is no excuse.

But I am willing
to cite and release you

if you apologizeto the officer.No.

Excuse me?

I don't want to be released.Uh,

I don't understand.

I don't care about the ring.

I took it because I just...

I needed to slow things down.

You were trying to get arrested?

My parents are taking me backto Saudi Arabia against my will.

I have applied
for political asylum.

A-A friend is helping.
His name is Dan Ritter.

He's-he's one of my professors.

My guardian must have found out
and told my parents.

And that's why
they're in a hurry.

You can't talk to your parents
and ask to stay?

There's no talking now.

If... if they take me back home,

I'll be locked away,
maybe killed.

Just because I want the same
freedom you take for granted.

They're kidnapping me.

That sounds a little dramatic.My sister

wrote an article criticizing
the male guardian system.

My father locked her up.

Areen disappeared,

like she never existed.

Ask him what happened to her.

And then tell me
I'm being dramatic.

I'm sorry,

but this is between
you and your parents.No.

Now it's between
you and me and your parents.

Thank you.

So, we good?

I just spoke to the D.A.

We're charging Norahwith assaulting an officer.

I don't understand.
You promised.

No, I said I would let it go ifshe apologized, and she didn't.

Excuse me.

What are you doing?

I as-I assured my client
this was taken care of.

I am sorry to disappoint you.

If you do this, you're gonna
get a storm you don't want.

Bring it on.

♪

No statements about
the Saudi girl

until the press gaggle at noon.

I don't want to
go out on a limb

before we know what's going on.
Got it.

Vincent.Hey.

Where have you been?Working.

You look good, Blake.

Uh-oh, a compliment.

What do you need?

If it's a statement
about the Saudi thing...It's not that.

Can we talk in your office?

Sure.

Arturo Lopez...Yeah. You were

looking into the two guys
who killed him,

whether they were paid off.

The short answer:I'm pretty sure they were,

but it's complicated.

I need some informationto lock it down.

About this guy.Who's Edward Wilson?

Homeless guy.

Murdered two years ago.I don't get it.

What's the link? Arturo was
a lawyer and a high-end fixer.

How does he connect
to a homeless guy?

That's what I'm tryingto figure out.

I need Wilson's autopsy report.

I was wondering if youcould check out

the murder book collectionat the LAPD Homicide Library,

get me a copy.

Don't you have sources
at the morgue?

I don't wantto ring that bell just yet.

No one will noticeif you pull a report.

Uh, why does it matter
if anyone notices?

Maybe it doesn't.

Given the placesthe story reaches into,

it's hard not to be paranoid.

You know what, forget it.I shouldn't ask.

It's okay.
I'll see what I can do.

Thank you, Blake.

I mean it. I owe you.

Hey, the boss wants to see usabout this Saudi thing.

Just got off the phone
with Len Egan.

He's got a few
things to say.

Yeah, I bet.

BLAKE: The press is climbing
all over this one.

Everyone loves a spoiled
rich girl in handcuffs.

Egan saidyou were open

to letting her go
until you talked to her.

What changed your mind?

Well, she told me thatshe stole that ring deliberately

to buy time.
She's trying to get asylum.

Asylum from her family?Yeah, among other things.

Thought we didn't get involved
in immigration issues.

This girl is saying that
her life is in danger.

I can't justignore that.

As far as the pressis concerned,

It's a straightforward case
of assault on an officer.

We're gonna hold her
till her arraignment,

when she'll be charged.

In the meantime,I'd like to find out more

about this asylum claim,'cause if what she says is true,

she's got an argument.

See if you can track downher professor,

Dan Ritter.

Norah says that he's
helping her with the request.Sure.

But asylum applications
can take months.

we can only hold her
for what, 72 hours?See what we can

find out until then.
In the meantime,

it's business as usual.[knocking]

Got the secretary of state's
office on the line.

Sacramento?
What do they want?

No, ma'am.
Washington.

The assistant secretary
for near-eastern affairs

if you can meet with
Sheikh Ahmoud Fayed.

Apparently he's the father
of the girl who was arrested.

Business as usual.

AHMOUD:
Chief Thomas, I am
Sheikh Ahmoud Fayed.

Please forgive our intrusion.

Yes, you are excused.

You want me to release
your daughter,

but I'm afraid
I can't do that.

I'm sorry the situation
evolved as it has.

But yes,you are right,

I am here to help expedite
Norah's release,

as any father would.

But also to perhaps offer someperspective into her actions.

Please.Now,

Norah has always

wanted to study in the U.S.

And currently
she is studying pre-law here,

almost a year,
She's getting high marks...So why

take her back
to Saudi Arabia now?

School year isn't over.

Her guardian, Gamal,

has informed me thatshe's having serious troubles.

Psychological issues.

She was seeing a therapist.

Well, a lot
of college freshmen do.

Well, the stress
has overwhelmed Norah.

She has been diagnosed
with anxiety

and depression.

I believe she told you
she is applying

for political asylum?

She did.She's never said

anything like that
before she came here.

Chief Thomas,

she needs rest,
not a prison cell.

Well, she seemed rational
when I spoke to her.

Unless she's being paranoid
when she said that

you imprisoned her sister
for writing an article.

Did I get that right?

She said that about Areen?

Yeah, she did.

You be the judge.

I will arrange for you to speakwith her sister this evening.

And then, perhaps,

you will see thatI only have Norah's

best interests at heart.

Thank you.

COOPER:
I just got a call

from Doheny Division.

They're asking if they should,uh, send Norah to county jail.

They're not equippedto hold her overnight.

Well, she's already scared.

County would be
a disaster for her.

Have them bring her here.

We'll put her in one
of our holding cells.

How's that gonna look, puttingthis girl under your wing?

I will deal with that
when it happens.

Any luckwith the professor?

I can't find anyone who has seenRitter since Monday.

He's missed classes,
office hours.

People in his
department

say it is not like him
to just disappear.

Any family you can talk to?Single guy,
lives alone.

All right, uh,
put some people on this.

We got to find this guy.

On it.

♪

Ms. Sullivan?
Find everything you need?

Yeah. Thanks.

KATE:
Hey, Mom.
What are you reading about?

Sheikh Ahmoud Fayed.

TMZsays he is

the 31st-richest person
on the planet.Mm.

Does he come acrossthat way--

expect everyoneto do what he wants?

No, he seemed reasonable.

I mean,u-until he suggested

his daughter was mentally ill

because she wantedto finish school.

Mm.
Textbook male rationalization.

Girl's not doing what I want?
Must be crazy.

Well, he's notentirely off base, though.

Norah is stressed.

She's making some
questionable choices.

You know?
Some melodramatic claims.

I have a call with her sisterin a few minutes.

Hopefully she can tell mewho's crazy

and who's really a victim.

[Skype ringtone]

Uh, thank you for calling,
Ms. Fayed.

AREEN:
Please call me Areen.

Okay. I'm Tommy.

So, Norah tells methat your father

is holding you prisoner.

Is that true?I haven't left

this wing of my father's house
in almost two years.

What exactly did you write?

I proposed that
the male guardian system

is outdated and unnecessary.

Women here are considered
legal minors

from birth until death.

A 50-year-old widow
can't go to the market

without her teenage son's
permission.

So, Norah's guardian,
uh, Gamal, I guess,

uh, he accompanies
her everywhere?

Yes. There's also an app calledAbsher that lets him track her

and alerts him if she tries
to use her passport.

Which must be how he figured out
she applied for asylum.

So, this article
upset your father?

No. He agrees with me.

But many Saudis, men and women,called for my beheading.

So your father saved you?

Yes. The only way that he could.

Do you think he would
do the same thing to Norah

if she returned home?

It's complicated.

By applying for asylum,

Norah is demonizing
our way of life.

The more press coverage
that her arrest gets,

the more people
learn of her rebellion

and call for her death.

So by detaining her
as she asked,

we are actually making things
worse for her?

You asked if my father
would lock her up.

He would, to save her life.

[engine starts]

TOMMY:
You lied to me

about your sister.

How?

She can't leave our house.

For her protection.

My father
may be a reluctant jailer,

but he's still a jailer.

What would you have him
do differently?

Fight. Resist.

He tells us he agrees
with us in private,

then does what Saudi culture
dictates in public.

What good is that?

We can't find Dan Ritter.

Is there a relative
who can sponsor you here?

No.

Processing an asylum claim
could take months,

and it's not even a sure thing.

We have to release you
in 48 hours.

Dan was getting faculty lettersof support for me,

calling USCIS
to try to expedite things.

You have to find him.

I understand whatyou're trying to do here, Norah,

it's just not realistic.

Saudi women don't get
realistic choices.

My sister had to choose
between beheading

and living in her room.

And because I reject that,
am I delusional?

I came here

to get a law degree,
basically because I thought

it would infuriate my father.

And that was shallow.

I know that now.

But since I've been here,

I have learned
how knowledge can be a weapon.

I want to get my degree
and go home when I'm ready,

armed for the fight.

Will you help me?

EGAN [over phone]:
Are you satisfied, Chief?

Areen Fayed is safe and happy.

Well, she's safe.

But you understand
why she's there.

Yes, I understand
why it's necessary.

It's not a life

I would want for my daughter.

And nothing changes the fact

that Norah assaulted a cop.

Who doesn't have
a mark on her.

I want a peaceful resolution,

but...But what?

In my country, we have a saying.

"Let the sword decideonly after the plan has failed."

Have we failed?I am not releasing Norah

until the legal process is done.

If you think that's a failure,

then, yes, I guess we failed.

I wish this had ended

another way, for both of us.

Is that a threat?

Goodbye.

Really hope that sword talk
is just a metaphor.

AHMOUD:
Sadly, my daughter
has lost touch with reality.

But so has the LAPD
if they continue to hold

a mentally unbalanced
young woman

over a misunderstanding.

Norah struck a police officer
by accident.

And for that we are sorry,
but she needs our help,

not a punishment.

Last week,

a young woman by the name
of Katherine Jones

was arrested for assaulting
a police officer.

She was released within hours.

That young woman
is Chief Thomas' daughter.

Yes, the chief was able to get
her own child out of jail

in record time.

Thank you very much.

No questions. No quest...

He just accused
me of nepotism?

I'll handle it, don't worry.

Kate did not
assault anyone.

I have to set the
record straight.

If you defend your daughter inpublic, you'll have to call out

the officers who arrested her.

Okay?The press will plant you

right in the middleof your family and the LAPD.

You don't want to be there,trust me. I'll take care of it.

So, Egan's still
using his contacts

in the department.

I-I'm not sure he'd do that.
He was a good cop.

Oh, yeah? The LAPD did
not pay for that suit.

You release the girl,
and this all ends.

Are you sure this is worth it?

She wants the chance
to choose her life.

Not have it chosen for her.

I know what it feels like
to fight for that.

So yes, it is worth it.

Then you'll need somebody
on your side.

I got a suggestion
you're not gonna like.

Yeah?

Cop was assaulted.

Get the police union on board.

Ask Lou Woods for help?
Yeah.

[laughs]: You're right.
I don't like it.

Chief, Deputy A.G. Hughes
is here.

Okay.

Ah. Art, so,
what is the news?

The attorney general called
the deputy attorney general,

said the president is concernedover the sheikh's mistreatment.

Why does he care?

Do you know how many weaponsthe Saudis buy

from the U.S. government?

He cares a lot.

What does this meanto the community policing grant?

That? Off the table.Gone.

That's seven million
out the door.[groans]

That's the least of it.

They're threateningto investigate the arrest

as a civil rights violation.

They'll sayyou're targeting Muslims.

The federal Civil
Rights Division?

They can put every questionablearrest the LAPD has made

on your watch undera microscope, and will.

You've given the feds a gift.

They get to say they'redefending Muslim civil rights.

Y-You got to push back.
Call Lou Woods.

Dylan. Don't let that
ball touch those bumpers.

[exhales]
Chief Thomas.Got a minute?

Are you here about
the vicious slapping?

I'm trying to protect
an LAPD officer.

That's a job we share.

You don't want people
thinking they can just

hit one of our cops
and walk, do you?

I talked to the officer,and she's willing to let it go.

And she told
you that.

Makes me thinkyou're protecting somebody else.

Like, maybe
that little Muslim gal

you got tucked up
at headquarters?

Let's say I was willing
to work with you.

What do you need?

Public statement
confirming the seriousness

of the assault charge.

And union support

if the feds open
a civil rights investigation.

Mm. That'd be
real helpful of me.

What do you want?The kid who claimed

he got attacked
in custody?

His family is suing the
two guys who arrested him.

Just give the officers
some public support.

Say he behaved appropriately
and I'll make your statement.

They didn't behave
appropriately.

They made a bad arrest,

and that kid got the crap
beat out of him because of it.

The officer who got slapped
doesn't need our protection.

You want me to say she does.

That's not the same thing.

You want me to be your guy?

You got to be my gal.

That's how it works.

You will never be my guy.

Your funeral.

No go?[sighs]

He made me an offer
I could refuse.

[chuckles]

Cooper called.

Dan Ritter's dead.

What? How?Found his body

at the bottom of a cliff
in the canyon.

Near a hiking trail.

Somebody tried to make it
look like an accident,

but the M.E. says he got hit
in the head, dumped later.

Ritter was murdered.

♪

Hey.

Sorry I'm late.I had to go to a crime scene.

Me and Luna already ate.

You can, uh, order
a pizza if you want.

[exhales]Are you okay?

Isn't that self-cleaning?

They sent me home
from school today

after the news broke about
the sheikh's statement.

I guess some
parents complained.

Oh, that is ridiculous.

I'll-I'll callthe headmaster tomorrow.

I-I... You didn'tdo anything wrong.

No, don't.
It's not your fault.

The people who run
the school are idiots.

I don't even know
why I'm there.

Anyway...

that's not the headline.

Henry left today.

We're splitting up,

for real.You okay?

Uh, honestly?

Yeah.

I have been
on this roller-coaster,

trying to recapture
some happy feeling

from when we got married,

and truthfully, I don't even
know if it was ever there.

Now that it's decided,
I feel like I can breathe

for the first time in months.
[sighs]

Then you're doing
the right thing.I just...

have to tell my daughter
that her family's breaking up.

She'll still have a family.

I've been through this.

I can help you
figure out what to say.

I'm glad you're here.

Daniel Ritter.29, single.

Taught philosophy.

Killed by a blow to the headwith a blunt object.

Body dumped sometime between6:00 p.m. and midnight Monday.

Keller, I didn't expect
to see you at the scene.

This case just
land on your desk?

No, Chief.
I asked for it.

I know there were some, uh,issues last time.

I'd like another chanceto show what I can do.

I got no time for
personal beefs.Won't be any.

I'm good.

All right.

What do you got?

Ritter taught his last class
at noon Monday,

then nothing.

We're talking to friends andcolleagues, checking financials,

going throughsecurity footage.

Well, we know he was helping
Norah, which would not

have made him popular
with her family.

Yeah, but what would
murdering him accomplish?

Her asylum bid was a long shot

to begin with.This guy,Gamal Hadiri,

Norah's bodyguard--

maybe he took his job
a little too seriously?

Yeah, maybe.

Chief, Rima Fayed
would like to speak with you.

All right,
put her through.

In person.

VINCENT [on recording]:
Hey, this is Vincent.

Sorry I missed your call.
Tell your story at the beep.

[beep]

Hey. It's Blake.

Uh, I'm officially worried,
which I know is dumb

because you can take care
of yourself.

Uh, so...

...let me know you're okay.

Please.

RIMA: I don't even have a cell phone.

Call me old-fashioned,

but I preferface to face,

and ladies-only privacy
is a rare commodity.

I'm still trying to get used
to having a security detail.

At least I get to
send them home.

Does it ever bother you--

relying on men?

I was 22 when the Taliban

came to power in Afghanistan.

My best friendhad her fingertips cut off

for wearing nail polish.

I am content in Saudi Arabia.

Norah isn't.

I love Norah.

But she is naive.

Don't let her idealism
blind you.

As mothers,

we must be wise
when our children are not.

The longer you hold my daughter,

the worse it will be for her
when she returns home,

and she will return.

Are we talking
threats of beheading?

I don't think Norah is unstable.

Neither do we,
but my husband must stress

that she's mentally ill
in the press

to keep her safe.

Saudis do not see
girls like her as rebels.

Uh...

To them, Norah is a terrorist

who might incite
other young women

to reject our way of life.

Did you or your husband ever
meet a professor of Norah's,

Dan Ritter?

Gamal told us about Mr. Ritter.

He was afraid that Norah
was developing feelings

for her handsome professor.

My husband was angry.

Norah knew that
she was promised to a man

of our choosing back home,

and Ahmoud trusted her to-to be

a-an obedient daughter

and a good, chaste Muslim girl.

Ritter was murdered.

We never met him.

[phone vibrates]

Apparently your husband
is on his way to my office.

Didn't he know we were meeting?

I didn't tell him.

I wanted this to be between us.

Ooh, I guess I'm gonnahave to order more couches.

Chief Thomas, good morning.Phil Goldstein.

Sheikh Fayed's attorney.Nice to meet you.

What do you got?
Court order and some
much-needed common sense.

Norah Fayed should have beencited and released two days ago.

This farce has gone onlong enough.

Oh, I'm afraid I don't agree.72 hour hold.

We still have 24 hours.

According to California
State Law, AB 1810,

you can't hold anyone charged
with a crime committed

because of a diagnosablemental disorder.

TOMMY:That will be relevant

at her arraignment,
when she's charged.

Until then, she's ours.

Chief Thomas, this court order
is a good faith attempt

to get you
to release Norah.

And if I don't?

We will file suit

and D.C. will
back us up.

I will tie up
your department in court,

and you will be to blame.You won't be the first to try.

KEN: [clears throat]
About that court order,

the judge should've mentionedthat Norah needs to be evaluated

by two independent

psychiatrists approved
by both sides.

How about we let
the lawyers huddle?

Excuse me.

You're gonna
like this.

This is campus security footage

from outside
Ritter's office.

This is Monday,

just after his noon
lecture let out.

That's Ritter.

And that's
Sheikh Fayed.

Rima said they'd
never met Ritter.

KELLER:
I got to say it's convenient,

you coming down
to headquarters.

Now we can talk about
Dan Ritter's murder.

My client is cooperating
in good faith.

How about we all try?Can you explain this?

I wanted to speakwith Mr. Ritter.

Did you consider an e-mail?

Were you aware he was helping
your daughter apply for asylum?

Of course.Couldn't have been
thrilled about that.

Don't answer that.I knew asylumwas Norah's idea.

I did not blameMr. Ritter for that.

Then why the rough treatment?I was concerned,

as a father, that he was
trying to seduce her.

And you wanted
to put a stop to it.

All right, we're done.No, we're not.
Your client

was one of the last people
to see a murder victim alive.

So what happened
when you met?

He said that

there was no seduction,
no romance

on his part.

He said he would never
jeopardize his career

by sleeping with a student.

I believed him.So you just let him walk?

What else would I do?

The Sheikh's associates
will confirm

Mr. Ritter wasn't harmed.

I'm sure they will.

What would have
happened to Norah

if she'd had sex
with Dan Ritter?

Sharia law callsfor 100 lashes.

This is a different entrance
to Ritter's university office.

30 minutes after he was grabbed.

Guess the Sheikh told the truth.

And look who drops by to say hi.

Where's her guardian?

NORAH:
I don't know where Gamal went.

I had to tell Dan
that my parents

were pulling me out of school.

Did he tell you he'd just had
a talk with your father?

No, but I knew he was upset.Was it common

for Gamal to just disappearand not tell you where he went?

No.
He was always there.

I know he went to my parents'hotel that day,

but then I didn't see himuntil the next morning.

I'll bring him in.

Vincent?

Vincent?
It's Blake.

Here you go.

Thank you.

So, just to be clear,

you go with Noraheverywhere?

Uh, everywhere there
is mixed company.

I guard her person,
her honor, her...

reputation.Did you feel that Dan Ritter

was a threat to her reputation?

She had a crush on him.

I worried she might
do something foolish.

When did you last see
Dan Ritter?

Monday.

With Norah at his lecture.

So there's
no chance

we would find you
on security camera footage

from Mr. Ritter's house
from later that night?

No.

She is a nice-looking girl.What?

Norah.
You attracted to her?

No.

She is my second cousin.

And... my charge.

Jealousy is a powerful thing.

And this wasa vicious attack.

Takes a lot of force
to kill a man.

Tell me, Gamal,

if we rolled up your sleeves,

would we find scratches there?

No.

Because we found skin cells

under Dan Ritter's nails.

Apparently he fought
his attacker.

There's enough DNA under hisnails to test against the sample

we're gonna take
from this bottle.

I don't understand.

If your DNA from this bottle

matches the DNA
on Dan Ritter's body,

then you have been lying

to us, Gamal.

Are you arresting me?

No.
You're free to go.

I...

Yeah, he's on his waydown now, car two.

Got him.

We should have let him
cool his heels a while.

We got eyes on him.

What, do you think
he's gonna run?

I think he's gonnarun tosomeone.

[alarm ringing]

Gamal just stoppedhis elevator.

I don't knowwhat he's doing.

I did everything you asked...

but they know.

Who is he talking to?

I understand.

[speaking Arabic]

He's coming back up.

All right, come on.

Gamal?

Hold it, there.

I will need a lawyer.

Why?

I killed Ritter.

To protect Norah.

I love her.

Gamal Hadiri is in custody.

He confessed to Dan Ritter'smurder and the DNA backs it up.

That is highly regrettable,
but it does not change

the facts of my
daughter's detention.

EGAN:
Which, as of six minutes ago,

has lasted for 72 hours.Congrats Chief,

you ran out the clock.

Norah...

please, it is over.

We fly home this evening.

No.

Your plans may need to change.

Norah's a material witness.

She was one of the last
people to see Ritter alive.

She'll need to testify
at Gamal's trial.

That could be overa year from now.

Yes. So, since we know

it would be difficult to get herback from Saudi Arabia,

we're detaining her until trial.You're saying
she's a flight risk?

Exactly. When we told the D.A.
about Areen's

house arrest,
and that Norah

could expectthe same treatment,

he agreed that
we should keep her here.

Of course, she won'tbe a prisoner. She will

continue her studies,
live her life...

I want to speak
to the D.A. about this.

You're twisting
the system into a pretzel...

Enough.

Norah,

if you want so badly
to be an American...

...so be it.

But you will no longer
be my daughter.

RIMA:
Ahmoud, Ahmoud...

Are we done here?

I guess we are.

I know it's
what I wanted, but...

it's not how I wanted it.

Gamal made me crazy sometimes,

but he's not a bad man.

He supported his whole family

by guarding me, and...

they're very poor.

He supported his family?

Did they live in Jeddah?

Yes.
Um... how did you know?

Well, Gamal made two calls
from the elevator.

To your parents' hotel suite

and one to a private number

in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.

Who picks up a hotel phone?

A woman who doesn't
use a cell phone.

Why would Gamal call my mother?

I think he
may have

killed Dan Ritter for her.

Poor Dan.

[sniffles]

He was just trying to help me.

But it makes sense.

If Gamal told my mother
that I was falling for Dan--

which... to be honest, I was--

she would've panicked.

In her mind, a strategic
marriage is everything.

And, if I gave up
my virginity...

She would have
lost another daughter.

So, Gamal must have
called your mother

to make sure his family

would be taken care of
if he confessed.

And then he called
his family to say goodbye.

He'll never admit the truth.

Neither will she.

Cheer up, boss.

You won, right?

Let's go to the airport.

You going
somewhere?

[door closes]

Of course.

Chief Thomas.

Detaining my family
is becoming a theme.

Sorry for the
inconvenience.

Are you?

I am trying to figure out Gamal.

'Cause I cannot imagine

you would choose a guardian
who would fall in love

with your daughter.

Two young people.

All that time together.

No plan is perfect.

Gamal is not in love with Norah.

He killed Dan Ritter
because you told him to.

And I thought my daughter
had a gift for drama.

You told me we
have to be wise

for our children.
I get that.

You thought you knew best.

Removing temptation.

That does not mean that
you can get away with murder.

You caught the murderer.

Gamal's story will never change.

It's not justice.

We did everything for Norah.

We gave her more freedom

than she'd ever known,

and still that wasn't enough.

Now she's dead to me.

You killed my daughter.

Where is my justice?

No, that one is on you.

You're a good chief.

A sheikha.

We're not so different.

Women always have power.

We just have to use it subtly
in this man's world.

I have a police force

of 12,000 men and women
behind me.

I have the law and I have a gun.

There's nothing subtle
about my power.

Power is slippery.

When I was a teenager,
I wore miniskirts

in the streets of Kabul.

Now women wear burqas.

Regimes change,women feel powerful, but...

men always come out on top.

No, not always.

Enjoy it while you can.

Am I free to go?
