I'm a national merit semi-finalist.

National Honors Society all three years.

Presently taking an all AP course load.

(Darren) 'Don't forget grade point average.'

While maintaining a 4.0 GPA at Hanford prep.

Extracurriculars, James, come on.

You're totally throwing me off, dad.

President of the debate team

captain of Math-letes, head of the chess club

French and Latin Honor Society.

Uber geek of the planet.

Super stud of the universe. Ow.

Come on, let's keep on point, James.

Alright, next on your list is your college essay.

Describe your passion.

Passion?

Um..

...a dedication to a special endeavor.

The college counselors say this is where they look

for the exceptional, like founding a charity

or producing a play or publishing a novella.

He's 17, dad.

Look, if he doesn't get a scholarship

I can't afford to send him to college.

No worries, dad I'll find my passion.

The good news is we still have plenty of time.

Great, let's watch "The Naked Chef".

He's off to buy fresh herbs on his scooter.

Let's go through the checklist one last time.

Oh, okay. Um, got it, dad.

Find a cure for cancer, open up a hedge fund

clone some sort of mammal, perform emergency surgery

then write "The Great American Novel"

or just put an end to world hunger

terrorism or male pattern baldness.

Then write my memoirs.

[giggling]

We'll get her done, dad.

We're right there, James.

We work hard, we package this right

you'll be able to do whatever you want.

(Miller) High school kid, Alexa Hoffman.

Older brother James went missing last year.

What part of town was that?

Family's from Narberth, Mainline police handled it.

So what's she doing down here?

Said she found some messed up video clip online.

Alexa, this is Detective Rush.

You got something to show us, Alexa?

I was messing around on this clip site when I found this.

[shouting]

(Miller) 'This for real?'

Yeah.

'How do you know?'

'Cause that's my brother.

Look.

They said he ran away

but James was going away to college in a year.

It doesn't make sense.

Who posted this?

User name is "rawfodog".

We can track it.

'The assailant's hand..'

'Some kind of tattoo.'

Any idea what this might be, Alexa?

My brother didn't exactly hang out with the tattoo crowd.

- He have any enemies? - No way.

He was top of his class at Hanford prep, a total geek.

Was your brother using, Alexa?

Drugs? No. Not a chance.

James would never do that to my dad.

Maybe he had some problems you didn't know about.

No, you don't understand. We got really close.

After my mom left, we told each other everything.

See that mural in the background?

'Looks like a beer label.'

'Brunyers?'

On the wall in that abandoned brewery down in the bottom.

The bottom?

Yeah, Mantua.

Crack central.

The hood.

So if he wasn't down there to score..

What's a straight-A student from the burbs

doing down in the bottom?

[theme music]

[sirens wailing]

Alright. I'll call you back.

Young adult male, body too decomposed to make a proper ID.

Anything else in there to identify him?

A damaged cell phone, backpack at the bottom of the drum.

(Jeffries) 'Uh-oh.'

(Stillman) 'What are they doing down there?'

The sister is the one who put us on to the location.

(Stillman) 'The family can't see this.'

Looks like multiple fractures base of the skull.

Kid was beaten to death.

Like in the video.

'We'll take the drum, bag the hands'

check the fingernails for DNA, could have fought his assailant.

We have the cell number?

Well, Mainline PD already dumped

his number after he went missing.

No calls after James left home.

The video of the assault was originally

posted from inside Hanford prep academy.

The same high school the victim attended.

Looks like you're taking a trip out to the Mainline.

Want me to handle this one, boss?

No, I got it.

I got some bad news.

[sobbing]

[bell ringing]

(Rush) This a high school or a country club?

(Valens) The place gives me the willies.

'Cause these kids drive better cars than we do?

No, 'cause it's high school and you're the only female in sight.

- Excuse me, officers. - Detectives.

Valens and Rush, Philly Homicide.

Gene Emmerick, headmaster.

I wish you'd called ahead to tell me you were coming.

Computer labs this way?

Excuse me, did you say "homicide"?

Yeah, James Hoffman, he was a student here.

Oh, my God. I knew James.

Top-notch student. That's terrible news.

We're gonna need to see any

online records in the computer lab.

Whatever you need. We're an open book.

We're gonna need to talk to whoever monitors computer usage.

We use students to monitor the computer room.

Great, if you could get us a list of names.

Yeah, like, any who knew James Hoffman.

Not a problem, I just need to get the written permission

of their parents before you talk to them.

Oh, that won't be necessary.

If you could just show me those logs, Mr. Emmerick.

Hey.

Hold up, sport.

Name?

Lucas.

What's your hurry, Lucas?

I'm just late for my next class.

What, gym? You don't look like a kid who hurries to P.E.

Calculus, a short cut.

Go ahead, I'll walk with you.

No, it's cool.

No, no, it's not.

You knew James Hoffman?

Sort of used to be friends, kind of.

Sort of, kind of want to tell me here

or down at the station, Lucas?

We used to eat lunch in the computer lab together.

Compare test scores.

He'd always ace me out.

Then he started tanking.

Tanking what?

His grades.

His life.

He got all weird and angry.

We stopped talking.

When was that?

A couple months before he went missing.

[Weezer singing "Beverly Hills"]

All the ivy's are getting rid of early decision.

There's no angle left unless you're a hook.

A hook?

Yeah, like a legacy, athlete, minority, special circumstance.

I think I got an uncle who's part native American.

I'd look into it.

Pacific Islander's good, too.

Dude, my parents are all over me about the essay right now.

Yeah, you're supposed to write about your passion.

Whatever that means.

I'm passionate about Giselle Bundchen.

[laughing]

Tell me about it, man.

I stayed up all night last night and I only inked out a page.

- Let me see. - No way.

Come on, Jay, you know I don't pirate.

Alright, man.

Promise not to laugh.

Hey.

'Come on, man, give that back.'

Hey, Tanner, what are you doing?

What are you doing!

What did you do that for?

What the hell?

Do something.

Do something, come on, hit me.

Come on, come on, hit me.

Come on, pretend I'm your dad.

What? You're an idiot.

Take your fist and take a swing, come on.

Tanner, leave him alone. He didn't do anything to you.

That's what I thought.

♪ That's where I want to be ♪♪

The tattoo on his left wrist?

- You're sure about that? - Yeah.

Like one of those little anarchy symbols.

Why?

Who was this clown?

Tanner Lennox.

But you didn't hear it from me.

- He's untouchable. - Yeah, why's that?

His dad just donated the new science building, that's why.

Go on. You're going to be late for calculus.

You had a beef with James, Tanner?

It's nothing personal.

This interview is over. I'm taking my son home.

We just need to ask Tanner a few questions, Mr. Lennox.

Not without my lawyer you're not.

(Rush) Why, you got something to hide?

Come on, Tanner.

We have your son on videotape assaulting another student.

'James Hoffman, whose body turned up this morning'

stuffed in a drum down at the bottom.

So either we talk to your son today

Mr. Lennox right here, real civil like--

Or we get a warrant for his arrest

and stick him in a holding cell all weekend.

Until his daddy's attorney gets him arraigned Monday morning.

You're on video?

'What the hell?'

- Tanner? - Yeah.

Yeah, you're right, that was me..

'...pounding on James, but..'

...it's not what you think.

How do you feel?

Alive.

Welcome to the world, young buck.

What'd I tell you?

Huh? Yeah.

Next time, thumbs on the outside unless you want to break them.

Thanks, Ares.

You, you, fight.

Bunch of rich kids throwing down in the hood?

It's a fight club.

Some people like to drink, do drugs.

We like to fight.

What, you saying James was a part of this?

He took to battle like a caged animal.

Hey, neighbor.

I usually move the car before the street sweeper.

I just overslept.

Oh, give it to me, I'll take care of it.

Oh, no, that's okay. I'll just pay it.

Why? Just give it to me.

Well, I don't want to put you out.

It's no big deal, really.

- Hey. - Hey.

Scotty, you remember, uh my, uh, neighbor, Toni?

Yeah, how could I forget?

'You, uh, follow up on my case?'

The case of the missing basketball?

We got encyclopedia Brown on it.

[laughing]

Well, sorry, I got to go. I'm already late.

Thanks.

Forget it.

Look at you, dog.

What?

[chuckling] Trying to tap that.

Come on, she's a broke, single mom.

Yeah, you're just helping her out

big-shotting that ticket.

Just being neighborly.

You know you can't fix it.

That's the biggest cop lie invented.

Think I'm working a favor? I find that offensive.

Yeah, you're not interested, just let me know.

- I'll ask her out. - Back off, slick.

Anyway, they got a name on that kid was the ringleader

of this fight club.

He's Cole Palmer, senior, a.k.a. "Ares".

Ares was the Greek God of war.

Huh?

"Rawfodog" spelled backwards?

"God of war".

So the same kid posted the video.

Not bad, huh?

Yeah, dude.

You really need a girlfriend.

[bell ringing]

Morning, Cole.

Or should we call you "Ares"?

You could have just e-mailed me.

Why'd you post that video assault of James Hoffman?

Assault?

That sounds criminal.

We know all about the little fight club you were running.

Yeah, you left James to rot in the drum down in the bottom.

You're making it sound like I knew he was dead.

You were down there with him.

We moved on from that location a long time ago.

I got no idea who killed James.

We lock you up for inciting a riot

maybe that'll jog your memory.

A riot?

What, like two kids lacing up the gloves in the backyard?

- Your average hockey fight? - 'I used to box, kid.'

What you're doing ain't the same thing.

Oh, that's right.

Only cops get to beat the crap out of people.

This kid's really starting to bother me.

I wonder who'd win, you two threw down

I bet you big boy here packs a whopper.

You think this is some kind of game, jackass?

Define "assault" for me again.

What happened to James?

James is just another domesticated dog on a leash

headed down a path to misery.

What are you talking about?

Inside of every dog there is a wolf.

I just let 'em out.

[phone ringing]

[giggles]

[hand dryer whooshing]

♪ I'm thinking it's a sign ♪

Hey, is that my phone?

Yeah, that was your dad.

I told him you peed your pants.

Your old man calls you eight times a day?

Talk about an electronic umbilical cord.

What's he do anyway?

What does that have to do with anything?

Your father, does he got a life

or is he too busy scheduling yours?

He's a computer programmer and he's plenty busy.

Hey, do you want to make money?

Yeah, sure, someday.

Well, my pop made a fortune on Wall Street

but that didn't stop his trophy wife

from banging her personal trainer.

Can you just give me back my phone?

What are you taking all these AP exams for?

- For college credit. - What are you doing?

You're off to grad school.

Eventually. med school, law school.

Which is it, lawyer, doctor, what?

- I don't know yet, okay? - Did you ever read Jack London?

"The Call Of The Wild", yeah. So what?

So you lack inspiration, buck. And you can't wait for it.

You have to go after it with a club.

What are you talking about?

You should know that man has only two primal passions

to get and beget. Do you feel me, buck?

My name's not Buck.

Do you ever wonder why marginal students

get into great colleges every year?

No, because they don't.

Yes, they do.

You want to change an F into a B you just put a "3" on top.

- The system's rigged. - I know how the system works.

All you know is not to touch a hot stove or run with scissors.

When was the last time you did anything that you wanted to do?

Hey, at least I got a plan in life.

[chuckling]

Well, guess what, buck.

Everybody's got a plan until they get hit in the mouth.

- Hey, pick it up! - Yes.

Pick it up and give me back my damn phone!

Yes, that's what I want to see, buck.

Stop calling me buck!

And this clenched fist that's "The Call Of The Wild.

And when you're ready to answer it

you just give me a call.

Buck answered the call, total transformation.

What did you mean, "the system's rigged"?

The headmaster helped kids

like Tanner Lennox get over on the game.

He helped them cheat

fudged their scores.

Shocker, Hanford prep isn't totally merit-based.

What's that got to do with James?

James found out.

Blew a gasket, called the headmaster out.

So Emmerick killed James? Come on.

Or let some punk kid torpedo his career, maybe end up in jail?

You're right, that's insane.

You remember when Tanner Lennox

took his AP board test for college?

I think he may have taken them over. I'd have to check.

Oh, we already did, with the ETS testing service.

He took them twice. Failed the first time.

But then you were the proctor in the room the second time around.

- Near-perfect score. - 'Tell us.'

Is it common practice to allow students

to have their cell phones on during the test?

You're accusing me of helping students cheat

on a college board exam?

The rich ones, yeah.

Is there a point to all this false conjecture?

James Hoffman called you out the same day he died.

James was a brilliant student

but I've seen it before with kids under stress.

He became paranoid, volatile.

Volatile?

It's unfortunate, but you can never predict

how a student will handle the admissions process.

Remember, you need to have three recommendations lined up

'two from teachers and preferably one'

from an alumni of your first-choice school.

Excuse me.

Please, hold all questions till the end. Thank you.

No, I-I just, I just want to know

which test date you'll be proctoring.

Why, Mr. Hoffman?

Because...I'll want to make sure to bring my cell phone, too.

Or does my dad need to donate a wing to the school for me

to get that sort of special attention?

Sit down, Mr. Hoffman.

No, no, I want to know.

Which of you here is claiming you're

one-eighth native American on their applications?

I'm eskimo, does that count?

(James) 'Tell me.'

How many hours flying over Guatemala

qualifies as community service?

- James.. - No, seriously.

Is this process merit-based or can we just make it all up?

That's enough, James. Sit down.

Look at you.

(James) 'You're like gerbils in a cage.'

When was the last time any of you did anything

because you wanted to do it?

Not for your parents, not to get into college.

When was the last time you felt alive?

Son, you're bleeding.

How about that?

Looks like I found my passion.

♪ I've got a taste for blood ♪

♪ I'm walking out without you ♪

♪ You will kill or be killed ♪

♪ It's about progress ♪♪

This incident slip your mind when James went missing?

I had no reason to believe it was related.

Or you didn't want the world to know you had a price tag.

For the record, I did inform someone about what happened

James's father.

And he hit the roof.

One, two, nine, four, four, three, three, nine.

Yeah. Yeah.

Expires 10-09. I got to call you back.

Take care of that ticket yet?

Yeah, I just got to call in a favor.

Uh-huh.

What, you don't think I got the juice?

Juice?

No, I think you got a credit card.

You should have just skipped the favor BS and asked her out.

Save 40 bucks.

Yeah, single mom, neighbor, pain-in-the-ass kid

the whole package.

That sounds like me.

Except for the neighbor part.

- No offense. - None taken.

What makes you think I want an overweight, underpaid white man?

No offense.

See what you started?

Go squeeze some more juice out of that plastic.

'Yeah, got it, thanks.'

That was Frannie.

Found skin under James's fingernails.

- We got a match? - Yep.

DNA was James's father.

[indistinct chatter]

Back this way, Mr. Hoffman.

Dad?

Why don't you wait here with me?

It's okay, Alexa. Go ahead.

Like a soda?

- Anything? - No, thanks.

So there's news about my brother's case?

Alexa, did you notice any changes with your brother

just before he went missing?

He was a little stressed out.

The college thing is a lot to handle.

Yeah, I guess.

You remember how he got that black eye?

No, not really.

Your dad had pretty high expectations for your brother.

My dad would never hurt my brother.

No?

He went through a lot.

Especially after my mom left.

What about you?

I just...I just want him to be proud of me, too.

Like he was of James?

I admit James and I got into an argument.

Your skin was under his fingernails, Darryl. Come on.

Well, something happened. I-I didn't understand.

That night?

The past few months, he'd been checking out

coming home late at night

'out of pocket for hours at a time'

like he...like he was on drugs or something.

You confronted him?

Well, after I got the phone call

from the headmaster about James that day.

The incident at school with Emmerick?

I-I couldn't believe it.

All the tuition and the hard work, he..

He was just throwing it away.

[instrumental "Falls On Me"]

What the hell is going on?

Trying to hit the chimney.

What is wrong with you, James?

Were you trying to get expelled?

Remember when me and Lex were kids and you used to

play with us in the snow for hours?

James, what are you talking about?

Then after mom left, you just..

...you just sort of stopped doing that.

Damn it, James, I am talking to you.

Is that what you call it?

I must have called you ten times, left you messages.

You don't even call back.

Oh, yeah, must have turned it off.

Well, why'd you turn off your phone?

More importantly, why do you have to call me..

[glass shattering] ...ten times a day?

I should have cut that cord a long time ago.

- Are you on drugs? - Nope.

Never been more clear-headed in my life.

So you are going to flush everything that we have worked

for down the drain, is that it?

Is that the plan, James?

We? The plan?

You know, all this time I've been busting my hump

doing what you wanted me to do.

Then it occurred to me, why do I want to be like you?

What?

You've been a miserable, suffocating jerk for so long

no wonder mom left.

Your mother left because

she couldn't handle raising two kids.

You're saying it's my fault?

No, damn it. That's not what I meant.

I don't want to talk about this anymore.

- Hey, come back here. - Hey.

♪ She washes all my wounds for me ♪♪

What has gotten into you?

You're the one who changed, dad.

Why can't it be more like before?

- Before? - Yeah, before.

Before you cared so much about my scores, my grades.

I-I don't understand, James.

No, why can't you just be happy with me?

Get your own life, dad.

♪ All you dream falls on me ♪

♪ Falls on me ♪

♪ And your beautiful sky ♪

That was the last time I saw him.

It had to be tough, the past eight years

raising kids on your own.

I just wanted him to have every advantage

be prepared for when life let you down.

Darryl, you're saying James destroyed

his cell phone that night?

Yeah.

So whose phone was that in the oil drum?

[sighing]

[door closing]

Off to work?

Oh, late job?

Late night.

Oh, by the way, I took care of that thing for you.

- What thing? - Parking ticket.

Oh, oh, thanks.

Appreciate it.

It was nothing, really.

Hmm.

Something else you want to tell me?

Uh, no, uh..

...I just realized how nice it is to talk to you

without that damn ball bouncing.

Hmm, for a second there I thought

you were going to ask me out.

- Me? - Were you?

Absolutely.

Let me think about it.

Think about it?

Sunday night, I'll buy.

Since you paid for the ticket.

Sunday night it is.

Hey, what you cramming for...Lucas?

AP chem. Am I in trouble?

I tried to call you but I guess we had an old cell number.

You switch phones in the last year?

- Get a new number? - No.

Maybe you lent it to somebody.

- Not that I remember. - No?

''Cause the cell phone we found with James's body'

we pulled the serial number.

'Yeah, checked it with the service provider'

the phone was registered to you.

Stand up, Lucas, let's go.

I lent my cell phone to James.

- Why? - He called.

Said he needed me to come pick him up.

- From where? - Uh, Overbrook station.

When was this?

The night he disappeared.

He was in trouble. Big time.

Whoa!

Uh..

- You scared the hell out of me. - Let's get out of here.

- What's up? - Just drive, man, just go!

Go where? What's going on, James?

Dude..

Dude, is that blood?

You're getting it all over my dad's leather seats.

I screwed everything up.

Let me just sit here, okay? Let me..

Let me just sit here.

Okay.

I got so lost, you know?

Yeah, sure.

I thought he was right 'cause I was mad at my dad..

...but then I just kind of lost sight...again.

Of what?

Of me.

I got to make it right.

- Give me your phone. - What?

I'll give it back later. Please.

Hey, what happened, James?

This guy..

...I think we killed him.

(Valens) 'They killed someone?'

I don't know, I guess.

Their fight club?

I'm not going to get in trouble, am I?

I mean, I'm waiting to hear from colleges.

[door opening]

I checked on this kid's story, boss.

There was an assault of an adult male, White

that evening, a few blocks from Mantua train station.

"Martin Jacobsen, 42."

"Discovered unconscious with a critical head injury

subdural hematoma."

Blood on the brain.

He died two days later, ruled a homicide.

The R-5 stops in Mantua.

It's the same train James took to the bottom.

He was telling the truth about killing someone.

So, who'd he mean by "we"?

Got the dump back on Lucas's cell phone that night.

Only one call made, to Cole Palmer

'the fight club ringleader.'

If they killed a man, could be James went to meet Cole later.

To get their stories straight.

And Cole cleaned up the loose end.

Fifty years of homicide work between us here, Cole.

No strangers to violence as a lure to young men.

Girls cut themselves, guys fight.

Show of strength, confused with power.

(Stillman) But it's always a dead end.

Because violence just begets more violence.

And someone..

ends up dead.

- That guy's dead? - You remember him?

His name was Martin Jacobsen.

He left a wife and a four-year-old boy.

Beaten to death.

Look at him.

Look at him.

You think you know everything, but you don't.

Don't know what...buck?

Black eyes, bruises..

I show up like this every day at school

and all the adults are asleep at the wheel.

Nobody asks why.

So you do it for the attention?

No, to feel alive.

To feel like I matter.

Killing James make you feel alive, too, Cole?

I didn't kill him.

What happened that night?

We had just gotten off the train

and everything went to hell.

You scratched him?

You should have whaled on your old man

if you ask me, man. Boosh!

That's not the point you know? He's always meant well.

No, the point is, you dad thinks

your accomplishments are a reflection of him

as long as you look good on paper.

No, forget it.

Is that guy lost?

My car won't start

and I'm in a kind of a sketchy neighborhood.

- What a tool. - Yeah.

If you can get here

as soon as possible I'd appreciate it.

Just like my dad.

[bottle shattering]

Alright.

- What's he doing? - I don't know.

Hey!

Whoo-hoo-hoo-hoo!

Hey, cut that out. Give that back.

Buy, sell, buy, sell, everything must go!

Kid, what are you doing!

(James) 'Hey, Tanner!'

Yo, Tanner!

[grunting]

[yelling]

Hey, get off him, huh?

What the hell's wrong with you?

Is he alright?

Oh, my God! Hey.

- Tanner, you idiot. - Oh, my God.

Hey, come on, he's fine, man.

Does he look fine to you?

We gotta get this guy some help.

No, we gotta get the hell outta here, man.

[siren wailing]

Come on, Cole. We gotta get outta here.

Screw it, I'm gone.

Hey! Hey!

James, we've got to go.

No! We can't just leave this guy here.

That's not my problem.

Everybody's got a plan, right, Cole?

'What's your plan now!'

Cole!

I just took off.

You got scared.

I never wanted anybody to die.

Why did James call you?

He wanted to go to the police.

But that never happened.

I called Tanner and told him to go meet James

at the bottom and settle it.

Settle it?

But you never went.

It was Tanner's mess, not mine.

You want to talk deal with my son

it'll be through my lawyer after he makes bail.

There won't be any deal then, Mr. Lennox.

Tanner killed Martin Jacobsen

the same night James disappeared.

We got testimony from an eyewitness.

Dad..

Just keep your mouth shut, Tanner.

You were only 17 at the time.

'I can't go to jail.'

Worst case, they prosecute you as a juvenile.

Prosecute? Dad.

Over 16 any violent act is automatically tried as an adult.

You became a man the minute you started

beating that guy, Tanner.

I didn't...mean to kill anybody.

Tanner, shut up. Just let me handle this mess.

Don't tell me to shut up!

I'm sick of you always telling me what to do.

You met James down at the bottom.

Didn't you?

Man up, Tanner.

James had to go.

Tanner...you're a Lennox.

Do not go down a loser.

I'm not a loser.

Shut up, damn it.

He was just a kid, dad.

You do this, you're going down.

Then you're coming with me.

Stay in the car.

I'll handle this.

Get out here, son!

(James) 'Mr. Lennox?'

Shut up.

Over here.

Tanner told me everything you dumb ass kids did tonight.

We got to go to the police.

Don't be stupid.

The only thing that's gonna save your ass

is if everybody keeps their mouth shut.

'Cause all it takes is one screw-up like this

to derail your whole life.

Screw-up?

We killed a guy.

'Son..'

...after tonight, there'll be no mention of this

ever again. Understand?

You're a bright kid, James, with a hell of a future

but I know your father's financial situation.

Do the right thing, and I can pull some strings.

Tuition will not be an issue.

The right thing?

You wouldn't know the right thing if it bit you in the ass.

My dad never made a lot of money, Mr. Lennox

but he knows right from wrong.

That's very touching.

Your point?

You screw up, you man up.

Sorry, Mr. Lennox.

You can take your offer and shove it.
