(John)
'Caretaker relocating graves
came across a bastard coffin.'

(Scotty)
'No headstone.'

(Lilly)
Perfect place to bury a body.

(John)
CSU found a duffel bag
and personal items

buried underneath
the box. Idiot bag.

Buries a book of knowledge to be
worn by knobs at all times.

Knobs?

First-year cadets,
military school.

Shave their heads
to look like knobs.

Well, this knob got a name?

ID says Kate Butler.

Parents reported her missing
three years ago from--

Pennsylvania Military Institute.

I remember this girl.

One of the first females
admitted to PMI.

It took a lot of guts.

PMI. That's in what,
Bucks county?

(Scotty)
How she wind up
out here?

(Lilly)
Weekend leave in the city?

(John)
Except this box is
a military footlocker.

Issued by the school.

Fractured skull,
possible blunt-force trauma.

(Scotty)
'Could be our
murder weapon right here.'

Seven-pound hand weight,
with her initials on it.

We'll have those examined
for blood or hair.

Corroded laptop, clothes.

Made it look like
she ran away.

Got her in there
without cutting up the body.

Had to be before rigor set in.

So she's murdered on campus,
stuffed in a footlocker.

Driven all the way out here,
30 miles away.

Hopin' it would never get
tied back to the school.

It just did.

[theme music]

(Lilly)
'Pennsylvania
Military Institute.'

Now, all male for 162 years.

Well, mid 90's, justice
department forced almost every

'state military academy to admit
qualified female applicants.'

They even Valley Forge
and the Citadel are co-ed now.

PMI was one of the last holdouts
till four years ago.

Can't believe
this is still an issue.

Male institutions dragging
their feet to admit women?

Yeah, glad that's behind us.

Next thing you know, they'll..

start letting 'em be detectives.

(Will)
'Kate Butler was
one of two female cadets'

who entered PMI
in the fall of '05.

'Missing clothes, laptop.'

Assigned figured she ran away.

Well, the body changes all that.

What happened to the other girl?

Uh, Courtney Gaines.

Went into the infirmary
after the first day

gone within a week.

Butler almost made it
to thanksgiving.

School reported her missing
when she didn't show up

for chapel on Sunday morning.

Campus computer system

had her swiping
out her ID card

at the front gate
night before, 8:26 p.m.

Well, ID was found
with the body.

Possible her killer
swiped her card on the way out?

Used the footlocker
to get the body off campus

but he still needed a car.

I'll look into parking permits.

(Nick)
'Victim's father's downstairs'

'just coming
from the morgue.'

'Mother's on
her way in now.'

Separated when
they lost their daughter.

Autopsy report made me
confirm blunt-force trauma.

(Scotty)
'Kate's hand weight
matched the contusion.'

Could have been killed
in her own room.

Had a stress fracture
in her pelvis.

Undetermined cause.
Possible sexual assault?

I'll check the PMI
infirmary records.

Latest from the crime scene.

Thanks. How you doing?

Billy moved out this morning.

Finally asked him for a divorce.

I didn't know you
were gonna do that.

Yeah, I know, right?

Time to move on.

Yeah.

So, um, see you around?

Yeah, sure. Yeah.

Still have her room
the way it was.

Every time the phone rang,
a little part of me..

Hoping it was her, you know?

We're thinking she may have been
killed on campus, Mrs. Butler.

Have you informed
her father yet?

He's handling
the identification.

Nothing he loved more
than that school.

Lot of folks have a problem
with her attending PMI?

Including her own father.

He never wanted Kate to
go there in the first place.

His alma mater.

She was just
as stubborn as he was.

Force of her own.

Never even told us
she was applying

until after she was accepted.

Mr. Butler was concerned
for her safety?

Concerned for his daughter?

You'd have to ask him.

(male #2)
'Graduated in '78
before I got my commission.'

I went to PMI because
that's where my father went.

His father before him.

Footlocker we found her body in,
was from PMI, Mr. Butler.

(Lilly)
'I think that's how the killer
got her body off campus.'

[sniffles]

I don't want Charlotte
to ever see those pictures.

[sighs]

So, how she holding up?

Well, she said you never
wanted Kate to go to PMI

that you had a difficult
relationship with your daughter.

I knew what she was
gonna be up against.

She did it to prove me wrong.

Her mother blamed me
for what happened.

Why would she blame you?

She didn't tell you?

Kate would have
done anything for her father.

But you don't defy Hank Butler.

She'd made up her mind.

I always sided with my husband.

But there comes a time
when a child needs

more than just tough love.

[Pearl Jam

(John)
'Do you think that was..'

...an ultimatum
or a...a means of motivation?

Either way, I always thought

it was the reason
my baby never came back.

Blamed your husband for that.

Kate didn't need
any more people against her.

This is all
the hate mail she got

before she even
set foot on campus.

Did you show those
to the police before?

They said
they looked into it.

They told us that she ran away.

I guess that's
not true now, is it?

Did you talk
to Commandant Murillo?

We will.

Thanks for coming in,
Mr. Butler.

Sure.

You better find
the son of a bitch

who did this before I do.

[intense music]

(male #3)
'When Cadet Butler
didn't return to campus'

'we assumed that she'd
eventually show up'

on her parents' doorstep.

A new information indicates

she may have
been killed on campus.

I find that
hard to believe.

First year
is difficult

'but we have
standards of safety'

'for all cadets,
male or female.'

But there are no female cadets
presently enrolled?

Yes, well, it's a rather
limited applicant pool.

Maybe if you put a woman

on your brochure
see what happens.

We're gonna need access to all
school records and grounds.

I've been ordered
to give you whatever you need.

Cadet Gardner here
will show you to Moe.

He's my operations officer.

Now, if you'll excuse me.

(male #4)
'Attention on the quad!'

(Lilly)
'All hail the commandant.'

Saw a bumper sticker on the lot.

God, country and PMI.

Gotta figure the commandant's
next on that list.

Thought they were supposed
to look straight ahead.

Sir, not every day
a pretty blonde

walks across campus, sir.

(Moe)
'Course I remember
Kate Butler.

It was my job to implement
the necessary changes

to accommodate
female cadets on campus.

I don't think these were the
accommodations she had in mind.

Got a way to track
that footlocker, Moe?

Please.

Two in every room,
but, uh, we don't assign them

to any particular cadet.

One goes missing, who
requisitions a replacement?

No inventory.

We just replace
them as they

fall apart at
the end of the year.

'Must be, uh,
thousands of them.'

It sounds odd for a place

that keeps such
meticulous records.

(Lilly)
'Like the computer log
you supplied back in '05.'

Showed the exact time
Kate left campus.

It goes into a computer
any time a cadet

swipes their ID at the front
gate, on or off campus.

We're gonna need a list
of registered cars

and parking permits
that year.

Infirmary records,
any injuries

Kate may have incurred.

Whatever you need.

- Lawrence.
- Yes, major.

You know if Kate had any
problems with another cadet?

(Moe)
'Every fourth class cadet
has a rough go of it.'

More a function of being a knob.
It's not personal.

What about the function
of being a girl?

Wouldn't that get personal?

Well, she never
filed a complaint.

Look, I'd be lying to you
to say there wasn't resentment

among some of the cadets.

Why? She get
special consideration?

It didn't matter much.

That girl was determined
to be one of the guys.

♪ ...send
Not condescend ♪

Major, it is still too long.

How short do you
want it, commandant?

I have no idea.

(Murillo)
'She still looks
like a girl.'

(Moe)
'With all due respect,
sir, she is a girl.'

And we don't have
a female grooming standard.

- Courtney. Don't.
- Don't what?

Well, keep cutting
till we find one.

I'm gonna be a knob,
I might as well look like one.

Still cutting
your hair doesn't mean

'you can cut
the mustard here at PMI.'

This program is just too
demanding for most women.

Kate have a boyfriend on campus?

No, ma'am.

We instituted
a non-fraternization policy

'the year
women were admitted.'

Yeah, 'cause those always work.

Damned if you do,
damned if you don't, detective.

We'd like to see her room.

Lawrence, show them
the barracks.

Yes, sir.

(Scotty)
'"A cadet shall not
lie, cheat, or steal'

nor shall he tolerate
those who do."

Hmm, honor code.

Noticed they got one
in every building.

Single sanction
policy, ma'am.

One violation
gets you drummed out.

Pretty strict code
for most mortals.

That's why on the eighth day,
God created PMI.

This the only dorm room
with a lock on the door?

Yes, sir, first one installed
in school history.

Along with
a special latrine..

...bathroom for women
down the hall.

(Lawrence)
Room's been unoccupied
since Cadet Butler

and the other girl left.

The other girl?
Courtney Gaines?

(Lawrence)
'Yes, ma'am,
non-hacker.'

Cadet Butler only shared
a room the first week.

(Scotty)
'Tell the commandant
this is now a crime scene.'

Yes, sir.

I think it's time
we talk to Courtney Gaines.

I transferred to Bryn Mawr
my freshman year

to major in women's studies.

Quite a contrast, going from
an all-male military academy

'to a women's college,
Courtney.'

I'm writing my senior thesis
on the merits

of single-sex education.

Which one?

Women's colleges only graduate

four percent of the country's

female students'
but they produce 25 percent

of the female board members
of Fortune 500 companies

Fifty percent
of the women in congress.

I know where
my daughter's going.

How did you get along with Kate?

(Courtney)
'Oh, she was a great girl,
tried to help me.'

I thought going to a school
like PMI would be empowering.

Instead I spent half
my time in the infirmary.

- What happened?
- Hell Week.

Marching, pushups,
more marching.

Suffered a stress fracture
in my pelvis.

- Kate had the same injury.
- Women's legs are shorter.

And so, we have to take longer
strides just to keep up.

But the physical abuse
was nothing compared

to the psychological assault.

Maybe 'cause Kate's
father went there

she was more prepared.

She knew how to survive.

Actually, neither one of you
survived the school.

But at least
you're still sitting here.

What do you mean?

- She was found in a cemetery.
- 'Oh, my God.'

(Nick)
'Anyone in particular
you can remember'

gunning for her, Courtney?

Yeah, I do.

He hated both of us on sight.

I'll never forget his face.

[Pearl Jam singing "Why Go"]

In what year was my beloved
institution founded?

- Fat body?
- Sir, Eighteen forty..

Uh, some-something, sir. I..

Cadet Chucklehead has just
desecrated the very ground

upon which you
worthless knobs stand.

(male #1)
'For that, you owe me
20 more pushups.'

Eat floor, knobs!
Exercise!

What we obtain too cheap,
we esteem too lightly.

[grunting]

Come on. Get up.
You can do it.

- 'You can hack it!'
- I can't.

(Courtney)
'I can't do it.'

(male #1)
'This ain't yoga class
downward dog!'

Get your ass out of the air
and do a man's pushup!

'You gonna spend
another night'

'crying in the infirmary,
Cadet Useless?'

That's what I thought.

- You all right?
- Shut up.

Don't even look at me.
Before he comes over here and--

'Eight-Ball, did you just blow
chunks on my fine quadrangle?'

Sir, yes, sir!
Sorry, sir.

'Are you suggesting
that my mess hall'

'doesn't quite measure up
to your mama's home cooking?'

Do you need a bib?

Sir, no, sir!

'How about you, Sinead?'

You wanna give me some tears?

Make me feel sorry for you?

- Sir, no, sir!
- 'You see this ring?'

'You think I busted my ass
for three long years'

just to see 'em
give it away to a bunch

of sports bra-wearing
pantywaists?

Only way you're getting
one is through me..

...and that ain't gonna happen.

Sergeant James Addison.

Still have nightmares
about that guy.

Made it clear it was you or him.

The day I walked out,
every guy in the place cheered.

Kate stayed.
God knows why.

Did Addison threaten
you personally?

He visited me in the infirmary.

Told me to leave now and walk
out through the front gates..

...or be carried out in a box.

First Lieutenant James Addison?

I help you?

Detectives Rush, Valens.
Philly Homicide.

You're here about Cadet Butler.

Yeah, word travels fast.

Graduated two years ago.

You still hanging around?

Grad program, engineering.

Finished my first tour
in Afghanistan.

'Get free room as
resident hall director.'

How well did you know Kate?

I was part of
the Echo Company cadre.

Saw her every day during Hell
Week. Not much after that.

I heard you took
special pride in racking knobs

especially the female kind.

(Lilly)
'Made it your mission
to run them off.'

Guess it worked.

I didn't treat
the women different

than any other knob.

Courtney Gaines says otherwise.

Hell yeah,
I tried to run 'em out.

I tried to run 'em all out.
It was my job.

It was break down the
individual, build up the group?

Whiny maggots call it hazing.

I call it natural selection.

But then, Courtney
was no Kate Butler.

What was different
about Cadet Butler?

She understood what it took

to earn the respect
of her peers.

[instrumental music]

How'd Butler rank first
in the two mile run?

(male #5)
'She finished sixth.'

It's called gender norming,
chucklehead.

Women automatically get two
minutes shaved off their time.

One for each knocker?

You're up first,
you gaudy smack!

Get on that bar
and give me ten pull-ups!

Sir, yes, sir.

You have got to be
kidding me, fish!

'Only girls and gumps
do the flexed arm hang.'

Hold it right there, gomer.

- Get up there, Butler.
- Sir, yes, sir.

Let's see if you girls
can hang for a full minute.

[cheering]

Let the girl beat you?
Come on!

[cheering]

You are a no go
at this station, Stewart!

Get off my bar,
you fat tub of goo!

- 'Get back in formation.'
- Sir, yes, sir.

♪ Forced to endure ♪

♪ What I could not forgive ♪

Butler knew that as long
as there was gender norming

she'd never be equal.

'Had to respect the effort.'

Even if Rhianna never
lived it down.

Rhianna?

That's what they called Ryan

after Kate smoked him.

'Drove the kid nuts.'

Where's this Rhianna now?

First class cadet.

Senior.
His folks live upstate.

Went home to visit. He's due
back tomorrow before first call.

Is that a sign out sheet?

Yeah, cadets have to sign in and
out of the barracks on weekends.

You know, I don't mind
standing the duty.

I basically get paid to study.

This different from the ID swipe
at the front gate?

The ID swipe's to get
on and off campus.

Barracks log
is for curfew purposes.

School keep track of these?

(James)
Collected every
Sunday morning

filed over in the main office.

Remember where you were the
Saturday night Kate disappeared?

Saturday night?

I would've been out drinking
with the guys in Echo.

It's mandatory
around here.

Good.

Then you'll remember
their names.

[instrumental music]

Hey, I have Kate's medical
records from the PMI infirmary.

Usual bruises and blisters
except the 18 stitches

she needed for
a gash in her hand

two weeks before
she disappeared.

Hmm. Little rough
for regular PT.

Told the doctor on duty
she broke a bottle.

I'm thinking
possible defensive wounds.

It makes you wonder why the hell
she wanted to go to this school.

Get anything from
the hate mail?

Uh, yeah, a lot of folks
with serious issues.

Here's one blowhard,
threatened to have Kate

drawn and quartered
for taking the spot

of more qualified
young men.

Hmm, postmark's from one of
those office postage machines.

And worth tracking.

Nut job number two

thinks Kate going to PMI

is a breach
of the Garden of Eden.

"He placed on the east side
of the Garden of Eden

"angels and a flaming sword

"flashing back and forth

to guard the way
to the tree of life."

Well, there's six of them
with the same sword business.

All sent out on a Saturday.

It could be a cadet off-campus
on open weekends?

They hate mail on Saturday,
chapel on Sunday.

These guys are unbelievable.

I believe it.

You ain't tellin' me this
kind of stuff happened to you

back in the day?

First female in homicide.

Remember Walter Harris?

Detective retired in '02?

Sure, was the Walrus.

He's a legend
with the practical jokes.

Oh, he was funny, alright.

Had a joke for me every day.

PMS, uh, my social life,
my ass, you name it.

Are you kidding?

No, I rolled with it

'cause that's what
you do, right?

Even rolled with it
when he put a centerfold

'with my face on it
on the fridge.'

Till this one night
I'm down in the Bottom

picking up a 6'4" meth head.

I turn around,
I got no backup.

Walter hung you out to dry.

You report his ass?

But I figured it'd
only get worse.

And at least I was 29.

Kate was only 18.

I'll hit PMI
in the morning

'talk to Ryan Stewart.'

See if Rhianna ever lived
his nickname down.

- Night, doll face.
- Night.

[instrumental music]

Philly Homicide.
Rise and shine, Rhianna.

- What the hell is this?
- Know you got a busy schedule.

Figured we'd talk to you
before first call.

- Remember Kate Butler?
- Kate's dead?

Found her in a footlocker.

You reported yours
missing knob year.

I reported all
my furniture missing, sir.

They used to
put it out on the quad

while I was asleep
sometimes with me in it.

Where were you the night
she disappeared?

Don't know. My room.
Where I always was.

Rhianna. Pretty nickname.
Cadets still call you that?

No, not if they want
to keep their teeth, ma'am.

Kate stuck you with that name.
Dusted you off good.

Lit a fire under my ass.
I bench over 300 pounds now.

Forgive and forget?
How sweet.

Yeah, I busted my hump
to make it this far.

I'm gonna graduate
on time with a ring.

(Lilly)
'Congratulations.'

Kate's pushing up daisies.

Look, it wasn't,
it wasn't the students

that Kate Butler
had to worry about.

Who was it?

Kate was a member
of the color guard.

Most cadets, it was
a time to shine.

But Kate dreaded it.

[indistinct chattering]

[indistinct announcement on PA]

[indistinct chattering]

Hell you think you are
performing with the color guard?

You aren't fit to
touch that flag.

I'm just trying
to do my job, sir.

Yeah, well, it's bad enough
a guy's denied a place

'they let some
bitch like you in.'

(male #6)
'Forward march.'

You're a disgrace
to the long blue line

of men who wear this ring!

You hear me?

The guy did the same thing
to her every single game.

There was nothing
she could do about it.

She'd get in trouble
if she fell out of formation.

Yeah, no one
had her back.

No one knew what to do.

I mean, that type of thing
didn't happen with the guys.

(Lilly)
'Loudmouth with the ring,
he alumni?'

Yes, ma'am, Jeb something.

Drunk still comes to every game.

(Kat)
'Jebediah Buford.'

PMI class of '82.

Works on the tenth floor.

Genius who sent
the anonymous hate mail letter

using his office
postage machine.

Just talked to Moe.

"Qualified young men"
he was ranting about

he's talking
about his own son.

Letter from PMI admissions.

Brandon Buford, waitlisted
the same year Kate was accepted.

Kid never got in.
Legacy or not.

Check out the Buford's
home address on the top.

(Kat)
'19128.'

Roxborough.

Four blocks
from the cemetery

where Kate's body was found.

[instrumental music]

[instrumental music]

How long did you work at the
Army Corps of Engineers, Jeb?

Been serving my nation
and the public my whole life.

When you're not
getting loaded

'at PMI football games
threatening girls?'

'"Better lock
your door at night.'

"With 2,500 bloodhounds
and only one bitch

you won't make it
to Thanksgiving."

What the hell
is all this about?

Your meter number
is the same as your office

mailing machine, Einstein.

No other PMI grads
in your department.

Certainly
not your son Brandon.

Couldn't get anywhere
near the place

with a 2.2
from Roman Catholic.

Brandon was a good kid.

PMI would have
straightened him out.

Woulda, coulda, shoulda.

How many DUIs he got now?

My son was a legacy.

That used to mean
something there.

You wanted
that girl gone.

Hate mail
is a state offense, Jeb.

So I wrote one
stinking letter. Big deal.

But why you hassling
me over a girl

who dropped out
three years ago?

She popped back up.

Roxborough Cemetery,
few blocks from your house.

- I want a lawyer.
- 'Why?'

Got something to hide?

Class of '82 had
a tailgating party on campus

same day Kate disappeared,
November 15, 2005.

You were there. We're gonna give
the jury opportunity and motive.

Look, I didn't hurt
that girl, alright?

'I don't know how
she wound up in that grave.'

You wanna find out,
you talk to her boyfriend.

[indistinct chattering]

I'm sure her multicultural

boyfriend knows
what happened to her.

"Multicultural" boyfriend
got a name?

Don't know.
Not a lot of 'em at PMI.

'Shouldn't be
too hard to find out.'

What did you do after
the class of '82 tailgate?

Cross burning?

I went to dinner with
the same group of alumni

that I always do.

You can check.

Count on it,
Jebediah.

Keith Henderson only
black cadet in Echo Company.

Kid never spoke to Plumstead
Township Police in '05.

Hmm, he better have
a good excuse

for not coming forward
when she went missing.

I'll get his records,
see what I can dig up.

Oh, did you, uh, did you
check on Jeb's alibi?

Oh, be taking my time
getting to that.

Ever get an award
for penmanship?

Guessing you think
I should have?

This "P" looks
like an "R."

Could have unraveled your,
uh, PMI warrant big time.

Came all the way down here
to rail on my cursive?

Actually, I was wondering what
you were up to Friday night.

I, um, got tickets
to The Heartless Bastards.

The who?

Yeah, I wish it were The Who

but the venue's
a little small for them.

A-are you asking me
out on a date?

So what do you say?

You gonna feed me first?

I can do that.

Then I say yes.

(female #1)
'I don't get it, Scotty.'

I'm divorcing my husband.
That's not good news?

Maybe if you had told me
six months ago.

Look, I don't know
what to tell you--

You need time.
Yeah, you told me.

All this back and forth

seems like we could both
use a coolin' off.

Is that what that
was last month?

- Cooling off?
- Will got shot.

It-it was wrong,
me coming to you.

So that's it?
Just like that?

I don't know what you want
from me, Frankie.

For the record, I think
you're making a mistake.

A really bad one.

[instrumental music]

[indistinct chatter]

- At ease, soldier.
- Can't leave my post, sir.

Put down the weapon, Keith.

(Lilly)
'Making us nervous.'

Talk about your relationship
with Kate Butler. Knob year.

She was in Echo Company with me,
ma'am. That's about it.

See, now you're
violating our honor code.

'Got an eyewitness
puts you and her'

getting cozy at the Danboro
Grounds Coffee Shop.

Have to stay at my post, sir.

Your post can wait.

Maybe your graduation
next month, too.

Introduce you to another long
blue line down at the station.

They called us the Odd Squad.

Echo had me, the chick,
and a Jew.

No one could figure out
why we were here.

What's that
got to do with you

giving Kate
the high hard one?

We weren't sleeping
together, sir.

I needed a tutor,
and she needed a friend.

[instrumental music]

I-I don't know, Kate.

Uh, infinite sequences
look like Chinese to me.

I'll take dim sum
over antiderivatives any day.

Oh, my God.

- What?
- You just smiled.

What are you talking about?
I smile all the time.

Not since I've known you.

Is your face gonna
fall off or something?

Nope, still works.

Why you so serious, Kate?

Why do you think?

I gotta be
a hundred times more Teflon

than the rest of the guys.

Put up a front, just like you.

Uh, front.

I really thought
you were that tough.

Well, if I let
my guard down, I'll be dead.

Why are you doing this, Kate?

Hmm? What's the matter?

Your father wanted a boy?

I were a boy,
he'd be bragging

about me to everyone he knows.

Um, it's just, we want
to get that ring

we gotta get back
to this calculus, right?

- Chinese, you mean.
- Yeah.

Kate was good people
once you got to know her.

Touching story, Keith.

- That your, uh, signature?
- Yes, sir.

It's a barracks sign out log
from the day Kate went AWOL.

'You signed out at 7:17.'

Same time as her.

You came back.
She never did.

There's gotta be
a mistake, ma'am.

I was on tours
every weekend that month.

Tours. That's punishment, right?

- 'What was that for?'
- Don't remember.

'Something to do with
that demerit you got'

for getting caught
in the ladies' room?

November 1st, 2005.

Two weeks before
she's murdered.

That was a misunderstanding.

Same night Kate shows up
in the infirmary

with her hand cut up
like sushi.

- She get that injury from you?
- What? No, I-I--

What the hell were you doing

skulking around
that ladies' latrine?

'Right here, Keith.'

Anytime.

I did go in that latrine.

'Cause I was trying to help.

(Keith)
'What happened to you?'

Kate, who was it

Just get me back to my room.

- Kate..
- Please, Keith, please.

I knew the cadets hated her.

Just didn't know
how much until then.

- You ever find out who did it?
- She wouldn't tell me, ma'am.

And I never got
a look at his face.

- You take her to the infirmary?
- Yes, sir.

Couldn't get
the bleeding to stop.

When I went back
to get my calculus book

that's when they
caught me in the bathroom.

Reason you had to do tours.

Knew I should have
kept my mouth shut.

All this time I thought
they just ran her out.

Who did you talk to, Keith?

I was in the Odd Squad, too.

I thought they were gonna
come after me next.

There's no incident report
filed with Echo Company.

I didn't go through
the chain of command.

The honor code is only as strong
as the cadets who uphold it.

I went straight to the top.

Commandant Murillo?

[intense music]

[instrumental music]

Thanks for coming in,
Mr. Murillo.

It's Colonel Murillo.

Oh, I think I've earned that.

You can have a seat.

You have a problem
with Cadet Butler

enrolling at PMI, colonel?

What's this all about,
lieutenant?

I believe the detective
asked you a question.

What I have a problem
with is irrelevant

in view of what the courts
have decided now, isn't it?

It isn't when
you allow a student

to be assaulted on campus.

That's a bit presumptuous.
Am I on the stand here?

You knew Kate was attacked

you should have stopped it
from going further.

I knew no such thing.

We have a cadet
who witnessed it.

Told you what he saw.

What Cadet Keith Henderson
told me was hearsay.

I chose to go directly
to the horse's mouth.

Sir, Cadet Butler
reporting as ordered, sir.

At ease.

I want to talk to you about an
incident that may have occurred

in the women's latrine
last night.

Sir?

I've been told that there
was an altercation

between you and another cadet.
Is that true?

To my knowledge, sir,
there was no incident.

Cadet Butler, are you
aware of the honor code?

Yes, sir.

"A cadet shall not
lie, cheat, or steal

nor shall he tolerate
those who do."

Now, did anything occur in
the women's latrine last night?

Nothing happened, sir.

- Dismissed.
- Sir, yes, sir.

(Lilly)
Well, that's it?

You just let her go?

What the hell
would you have me do?

The honor code is
the backbone of the institute.

If she said it
didn't happen, it didn't.

(Lilly)
'She was trying
to suck it up'

to fit in with
the male cadets.

Well, then she made
her choice, didn't she?

- You were head of the school.
- I still am.

That hasn't
stopped you from

trying to tell me
how to do my job.

Maybe if you did it better.

I don't care how many pull-ups
Kate Butler could do.

She was never gonna
be one of the boys.

Her anatomy prevented that.
Plain and simple.

You don't give a rat's ass
what happened to her, do you?

Any help I would have
given her directly

would have just made
the situation worse.

What do you mean, directly?

I assigned an upperclassman

to keep an eye on her.

The same as I'm sure there
was somebody who looked out

for you during your training.

Woman with a badge
intimidate you?

Who was the upperclassman
you asked

'to look after Kate?'

A first sergeant, Echo Company.

He would order her to his room
every Sunday for shine detail.

Cadet James Addison?

Uh-huh.

Put the fox in the henhouse.

Are we through here,
lieutenant?

I choose to spend
my Saturday evenings

kicking back with a Cohiba.

I apologize if the phallic
implications

of that offend you, officer.

It's detective.

And I've absolutely earned it.

[instrumental music]

[intense music]

A lot of work goes into keeping
everything clean, polished.

How can I help you, detective?

Made it sound like you hardly
knew Kate last time we talked.

James Frederick Addison.

Commandant's list
every semester.

I can see why he chose you
to watch over her.

Shine detail, right?

Every Sunday when
she came to your room?

Colonel Murillo
told you about that.

Wondering why you didn't.

'Kate was attacked
one of those Sundays'

two weeks
before she disappeared.

Would have been after
she left your room.

That just a coincidence?

You're right
about my perfect record.

I never failed
at a thing in my life.

Until I met Kate.

You gonna take
all day with that?

Sir, I'll try
to speed it up, sir.

'Brasso.'

Bring some back when you
go home for Thanksgiving.

Thank you, sir.

- What's wrong?
- Sir, nothing's wrong, sir.

Look, enough
with the sir sandwiches.

- What happened to your hand?
- It's fine.

Let me see. Come here.

'They stitch this up
at the infirmary?'

It's not a big deal. It's just,
some of the polish got in it--

- How'd this happen to you?
- PT, I think. Not really sure.

Three years of PT
I never seen

someone's hand
sliced like that.

Now, two parallel cuts,
what's that?

- It's a saber, isn't it?
- I couldn't say, Mr. Addison.

'Look, why do you
think I make you come'

'to my room every damn Sunday?'

So we can talk, so that
you have someone to turn to.

Look at me.

Now's the time, Kate.

I know.

[water splashing]

[switch clicks]

Hello?

Sir, request permission
to get a towel, sir!

Why do you need a towel, knob?

You ashamed of your nakedness?

'Answer me, knob!'

You hiding from
the sight of God?

Sir, yes, sir!

[Kate groaning]

Who was it?

- Come on, Kate.
- It was just racking.

Knobs are always getting
racked in the showers.

That wasn't racking.

That was assault.

Look, no guy would
tolerate what he did to you

so you tell me who it was
so I can go kick his ass.

I got to fight my own battles.

Then take care of it yourself..

...or leave.

You're the first, Kate.

They're all going
to be watching you.

I was supposed to protect her.

All cadets carry a saber?

Only upperclassmen

select members
of the regimental honor guard.

'Operations should have a list.'

What'd you think
when she disappeared?

I wasn't surprised.

I thought she just
finally had enough and left.

Detective..

...find the person who hurt her.
