- [Operator] 911, what is your emergency?

- [Michael] You're too late.

- [Operator] Hello, 911, do you have an emergency to report?

- [Michael] You're too late.

- [Operator] You'll have to speak up,

I can't understand you.

Do you have an--

- [Michael] You're too late.

- [Operator] Sir, do you require medical attention?

- [Michael] You're too late, you're too late!

(sirens wailing)

Was that okay?

Wait, no, wait, wait!

(gunshots firing)

- [Operator] Sir, hello?

Sir, are you there?

- [Dispatch] 14A38, shots fired.

Possible 502.

Apartment building 8310 Burke Avenue.

- [Officer] Roger, dispatch.

18A48 responding.

(sirens wailing)

Request 1068.

- [Dispatch] Roger, 14A38.

Units in the area.

Will advise.

- [Officer] Roger, dispatch.

- [Molly] Who took the 911?

- Uniforms pulled up maybe six minutes

after the operator heard the shots.

- Anyone else around?

- Fire escape door was propped open.

Probably could have took off that way.

You figure this for Houdini?

- Excuse me?

- Houdini.

It's what they're calling this guy.

You know, 'cause he could escape from anything.

- Hey, why don't you start on the neighbors?

See if they heard anything.

Top of the mornin', partner.

- Houdini?

- Yeah, well, guy kills enough people

while they're talking on the phone,

cause is gonna take on a little extra sheen.

- Where you been?

- Ellen's car is on its last leg.

We dropped it off at the mechanics.

I gave her a ride to work.

So, who's our guy?

- Michael Heath, 39.

His business card says he's a construction contractor.

- Anybody else live here?

- His name was the only one on the mailbox.

- Right.

Single white male, late 30s, blue collar, lives alone,

no sign of a struggle.

I leave anything out?

- Two entry wounds to the back of the head.

Looks like a nine millimeter.

Phone was taped to his head, just like the other guys.

- It's the same kind of tape, too.

Let me take a wild guess, we already know the time of death?

- We've got it on tape.

- Three vics now.

This one's turning into a real creature of habit.

- Yeah, except this time uniforms were six minutes away.

How'd he get out so fast?

- You heard the man.

If he parked his car down there

he wouldn't even need six minutes.

- [Molly] Gone in two.

- Yeah.

Ah, it's such a beautiful day.

Why don't we get forensics out here?

- What is this?

- What?

- It looks like a watch crystal.

- Now, what's that doing out here?

Charlie, is he wearing a watch?

- Wait a sec.

Yep.

- Is it busted?

- No, it looks fine.

- Hm.

Maybe Houdini just pulled his last vanishing act.

(pensive jazz music)

(microwave beeping)

(pensive jazz music)

- Lab pieced together the watch crystal.

Got a partial thumbprint.

We matched it to Terry Crane.

- Assault.

On his father?

- Step-father.

Went after him with a baseball bat.

Usual family issues.

Ugly divorce, trophy wife.

- Lawyer pleaded him into a private clinic for a year.

He got out two months ago.

- Yeah, about two weeks before the first 911 killing.

- Where has he been keeping himself?

- Well, when he was released he gave

his mother's address in Mackenzie Hills.

As far as we know, he's still there.

- So, Crane's in the apartment,

takes the fire escape, cracks his watch on the way out.

Why Heath?

- We checked Heath's records.

Turns out he remodeled the bathroom

for Mrs. Crane about a month ago.

- After the son was released.

- Could be their paths have crossed before.

- Well, we're trying to make a connection

between Crane and the other two victims.

MO is identical.

The gun, the tape, the call.

We place Crane at one, he's good for all three.

- So, let's get him in here,

see what he has to say.

(birds chirping)

- It's just, it's been a couple of months now

since you've been out to the house.

Ellen keeps asking when she's gonna see you.

- Yeah, I know.

- Look, all I'm saying, come over Saturday.

Throw on some steaks, a couple of beers, relax a little.

- Let me see.

- I should probably tell ya,

Ellen's got this friend at work,

she's been wanting to get you two together.

- I don't think so.

- Come on, make my wife happy.

What's the worst that can happen?

Maybe you meet somebody, have a nice time.

- I'm not interested.

(knocking on door)

- Molly, let me ask you something.

How long has it been since Josh dumped you?

- Richard, can you not--

- Six months?

Seven months?

- Can you not start for once?

- You're not seeing anybody.

Ellen says her friend is very nice.

- Where is he?

By the way, I was not dumped.

- He cut you off like a cancerous tumor, my friend.

- Backyard.

(mower humming)

- Hey!

Hey! - Look out!

Don't move!

Richard? - No, yeah.

Yeah, I'm okay.

Up.

It's not him. - Not who?

Who are you guys?

- Your name.

- I'm just cutting the grass, man.

You scared the hell out of me.

- Your name, sunshine.

- I'm Henry Baker.

- Where's Crane?

- Who?

- Terry Crane, the guy whose grass you're cutting.

- What, Mrs. Crane's son?

He doesn't live here anymore.

No, he got his own place.

- Where?

- How should I know?

- Where's Mrs. Crane?

- She's in Montana.

She visits her sisters for a couple months every year.

That's why I'm taking care of the yard.

- You got a phone number, address?

- No.

No address.

She said to just leave a message at the house

if there's a problem and she'll call me back.

- When was the last time you saw her son?

- I've never seen him.

The guy's a psycho.

I mean literally, they locked him up.

- You see him, you give us a call.

- Hey, you know, you shouldn't sneak up on people like that.

- Hey, well, sneaking up's what we do best.

Nice neighborhood.

- Back in the car, tiger.

Dr. Foster, Terry Crane is your patient,

wouldn't you have some idea of where he would go?

- Was my patient.

He was released two months ago.

I've had no contact with him since.

- Well, he was locked up for a year.

What, he's released and all of a sudden,

just like that he's better,

nobody has to check in on him?

- Look around you, Detective.

No one's locked up here.

Patients come and go on the ground as they please.

- Even violent ones, like Crane?

- You've never met Terry, have you?

He's one of the gentlest people I've ever known.

- He went after his step-father with a baseball bat.

- A result of his obsessive compulsive disorder.

- What, like, he has to keep checking,

make sure the door is locked?

- That's one example of OCD.

His case is more complicated.

It's manifested in a fear of abandonment.

He needs constant assurance of home and family

in order to feel safe, to function reliably.

- And what does that mean exactly?

- It means that if he's not home then he's will his mother.

He could never get along without both.

- What about the other way around?

If he's not with his mother, he has to come home?

- I'd say that's true.

- All right, well, if you hear from him,

you let us know, okay?

- Why did he go after his step-father?

- When he moved out, he threatened to sell the house,

leaving Terry and his mother homeless.

It fed into his worst fears.

- Well, if Crane believes someone else

is a threat to either his home or his mother

is it possible he could become violent again?

- It's possible.

(ominous music)

- It's still early.

We could just hang out here for a while.

(pensive jazz music)

- Here you go.

- Thanks.

He's got his mother's address on everything.

His driver's license, car insurance, voter registration.

- So why'd the old lady tell the gardener

Crane had his own place?

- All the victims say the same thing.

"You're too late."

What does that mean?

- Why does it have to mean anything?

- Guy sounds like an old fashioned nut job to me.

- Yeah, a nut job who doesn't stray far from home.

- Who the hell do you think you are?

You think that badge gives you the right

to do whatever you want?

- Josh, what are you doing?

- Listen, you think I don't see you?

That I'm stupid?

Stop following me, Molly.

I mean it.

- Josh, if you want to talk about this,

we can go someplace quiet.

- We've already talked, all right?

I'm sick of talking.

Get it through your head.

You and I are done.

It's over.

- I know that.

I may not like it, but I know it.

- Listen to me, I talked to a lawyer, all right?

I can press charges.

Doesn't matter that you're a cop.

- Let me walk ya out, Josh.

- Get your hands off of me.

- Easy there, boy-o.

- Oh, you got her back, do you, Richard?

Because your partner has some real problems.

She needs help.

Just stay away from me.

(Richard sighs)

(pensive music)

- Listen, the thing with Josh today,

as far as my behavior, improper contact.

- Forget it, he was out of line.

- It's just, he exaggerates to make a point.

He always has.

- You're better off.

- Yeah.

I miss him.

(Molly sighs)

I really thought...

- They're out late.

Wow.

Can you say high maintenance?

- Hey.

What is with the attitude tonight?

- You had a good time tonight, didn't you?

What was her name? - Whose name?

- Trouble in paradise.

- This is unbelievable.

This will not work.

Understand? - What are you talking about?

- I think it's time for you to go inside.

- Don't talk to me like I'm a child, Jonathan.

- [Jonathan] Then stop acting like one.

(door slams)

(siren woops)

- What the hell? (Molly sighs)

- Let me see your hands.

- Wanna hit the siren a couple more times?

There might be some folks still sleeping.

- Zip it.

Hands on the dash.

- Easy, guys.

We're on the job.

- Last chance.

- They got a call.

Some kids prowling the neighborhood.

- And we look like some kids prowling the neighborhood?

- They had a few break ins recently.

They're a little jumpy.

- So every time these rich folks

see a strange care on their street

they're gonna call it in?

- Probably.

- Meanwhile, the best hope we got

is Crane shows up at home.

- And we gotta be there when he does,

and without the uniforms there to scare him off.

- So what are we talking about?

(people clapping)

- Yeah, yeah.

Thank you, thank you.

Very funny.

- Okay, okay, enough.

Where are we at with fining Crane's mother?

- I spoke with the sheriff in Helena.

He's trying to locate her sister.

- They got maybe 12 people the whole state.

- A lot of them are off grid.

No phone, no power, no use for the government.

- That include the sister?

- He's supposed to call us when he's got anything.

(Leo sighs)

- Word on this mope is he's something of a homebody,

the conclusion being sooner or later

Crane's gonna show up at that house.

And believe me, I like it less than you,

but at the moment we got no other choice.

We're gonna sit on this house for a while,

maybe change our luck.

So, who's it gonna be?

- We'll take it, Lieutenant.

- Whoa, Richard, what just happened there?

- What do you mean?

- You just signed us up for hemorrhoid detail.

We could be in that house for weeks.

- Yeah, you're right, I should run it by you first.

- So what's going on?

(Richard sighs)

- The other day, I told you I dropped

Ellen's car off at the mechanic?

I went to see a doctor.

- What?

- Yeah, I've been having these pains,

you know, my chest.

- Richard.

- Hey, listen, Ellen doesn't know, okay?

Nobody knows.

Just--

- What did the doctor say?

- Nothing.

All it is, he said I gotta throttle back a little.

You know, all the stress.

So I figured if we could sit for a couple of weeks...

- Yeah.

- Hey, hey, listen.

I'm less than two years away from my 20, all right?

I could retire, a decent pension, maybe travel a little.

This gets out, how long you think

they're gonna keep me on the job?

- All right.

- Yeah?

- Yeah.

Okay.

We'll sit.

- Not a word though.

Seriously.

- Okay.

You want me to carry you to the car?

- Wise ass.

- So, you want to spy on our neighbors?

- Survey them, Mr. Brooks.

We have authorization from the DA's office.

Now we need your help.

- Why us?

- Your home has the best view of the Crane's house.

- You won't even know we're there.

- How long?

- A week.

Two at the most.

- Two weeks, and we're just supposed to pretend

like nothing is going on?

- We wouldn't ask if it wasn't important.

- I saw you across the street.

- Yes, ma'am.

- Well, I thought Mrs. Crane lived alone.

- Do you know her?

- You don't meet people on our street.

It's not that kind of neighborhood.

- But you would notice if somebody came around

who didn't belong, the way you noticed us.

- We haven't seen her son, if that's what you're getting at.

- Well, maybe your wife has.

- She has better things to do than watch the neighbors.

- What did he do?

- This is a homicide investigation.

- And you expect us to help you find a murderer?

We're done here.

- You think he'll show up

regardless of whether we help you or not?

- I am sure he will.

- Chloe.

- No, are you listening?

There'll be a murderer right across the street.

- They don't know where this guy is.

They're just trying to cover their asses,

scare us into going along.

- Well, I am scared, Jonathan.

- Honey, you don't want this people in our house.

- How do you know what I want?

You're never around.

When do we need to start?

(birds chirping)

When we first moved in

Jonathan wanted to work at home a couple of days a week.

He hates the commute.

It never really happened that way.

He's at the office even more lately,

so this room is empty most of the time.

- This will be fine.

- Mrs. Brooks, is there anyone else in the house

besides your husband and yourself?

- We have a woman who comes in, Angela,

and there's a gardener who comes in on Fridays,

but he never comes inside.

- Well, if any neighbors ask, just keep it simple.

Tell them you're having some painting done.

- They won't ask.

That would actually require talking to each other.

- All right then.

- Can I make you some coffee?

- We're fine.

- If you need something to eat, help yourself.

Or if you want something special

I could have Angela go and pick something up at the store.

- Mrs. Brooks, probably the best way to do this

is to pretend like we're not here.

- Okay.

(Richard sighs)

- Man.

- [Molly] We're good.

(camera beeps)

- What a shame.

Beautiful woman like that to be so lonely.

- Yeah.

She doesn't like it here.

- Well, did you happen to notice

the jerk she's living with?

- Call it.

- Heads.

- Dammit.

- Not like you got a life or anything.

- Go ahead, get out of here.

- All right, well, you have a great night.

I'll be dreaming about you.

- Rich.

Take it easy, huh?

(Richard sighs)

(Richard chuckles)

(unsettling music)

(knocking on door)

- Detective?

- Turn the lights off, please!

- I'm sorry.

- It's okay, just keep the lights off.

- I brought you some dinner.

It's just leftovers.

Hope you like Italian.

- Thanks.

- I know what you said about to pretend you weren't here,

but I couldn't leave you all night without something to eat.

- I brought a sandwich.

- Oh, sure.

I actually forgot that you're here for a while.

It was strange when I remembered.

- Why is that?

- I thought I must have done something utterly bizarre.

I mean, people act differently

when they know they're alone, right?

- I guess so.

- You must get so bored.

- Sometimes.

- Still, it's important that somebody be here, right?

- Yes, it is.

- [Jonathan] Chloe!

- I should leave you alone.

- Mrs. Brooks.

Thank you for dinner.

(unsettling music)

- Hey.

- Hey.

- So, how you holding up?

- Little slice of heaven.

- Yeah.

And how are things on the home front?

- She brought me dinner.

- She brought it up here?

- Yep.

Veal Parmesan.

It was actually pretty good.

- Did she also commiserate on your lonely vigil

in the fight against the forces of evil?

- She's not so bad.

- Oh, hell no, she's a peach.

Except maybe for a couple of parking tickets

that need fixing.

- Yeah, didn't come up.

- No, probably just my suspicious nature.

Hey, here you go.

These work the back door.

Go out the back, your car is parked a couple of blocks away.

- See you tonight. - Yeah.

(cars honking) (pensive music)

- What are you doing?

- I'm sorry, I was just trying--

- Do you have any idea what you did to me?

- I'm very sorry.

- Why don't you use the front door?

- I can't be seen coming and going.

Everything has to look normal.

I didn't mean to scare you.

- I'm going to get dressed.

- "You know what you just did to me?"

Yeah, she's a peach all right.

- I scared the hell out of her.

- That you did.

- What's going on over there?

- Gardener came by, watered the grass.

- Henry Baker?

- That's him.

High point of my day till you showed up.

- Go home.

- I'm gone.

Oh, I almost forgot,

we're having a party tonight.

- What?

(music playing distantly)

What the hell?

(knocking on door)

- Detective?

No one saw me.

- What if they miss you?

- They're all Jonathan's friends from work,

so as long as we don't run out of food or booze

they're perfectly content.

- And your husband?

- I'm sure he can find a way to entertain himself.

- Thanks again for the food.

- And I wanted to apologize about the way I acted before.

I shouldn't have gotten angry.

- Mrs. Brooks, you had every right.

- Can you do me a favor?

My name is Chloe, at least when we're alone.

- All right, Chloe.

- Truth is, I wasn't even angry at you.

You just happened to come along at the right time.

- Who were you mad at?

- Tonight was supposed to be a dinner party

with two other couples.

Jonathan calls me this morning to tell me

we weren't expect four other people, we were expecting 40.

- Threw you a curve.

- He likes to do that whenever the mood hits

just to show he can.

He's very territorial that way.

But this time I suspect it has something to do with you.

- What do you mean?

- He doesn't quite know what to make of you.

You're not intimidated by him.

He can't cheat you in business

and clearly he has no chance of sleeping with you,

so what else is a woman good for?

- That's a very enlightened point of view.

- He has no other choice but not to like you,

which is probably why I do.

- Why not just say no?

I mean, about the change of plans.

- You obviously don't know my husband.

He always gets his way,

regardless of how it affects other people.

- Are you all right with that?

- It's just the way it is.

With Jonathan it's kind of a divine right.

I guess that's what happens when your family

has more money than God.

It's always about the money, isn't it?

- Is it?

- I should go.

- Mrs. Brooks.

Chloe.

If you ever feel like talking...

(dishes clanking)

- Abandon your post?

(unsettling music)

Just like mine.

Don't worry, it's licensed.

- Somehow I knew that.

- Did you enjoy your dinner?

- Yeah, thanks.

- Don't thank me.

Chloe's the soft touch around here.

She likes to see that everyone's taken care of.

She also likes to pretend

it's out of the goodness of her heart.

- Pretend?

- Everybody wants something for their good deeds.

You're a cop.

You should know better than anyone.

- And what does she want?

- How the hell should I know?

Ask her.

Just don't wait 'til she's ready to tell you.

Than it'll be too late.

- Yeah, well, I gotta get back.

- By the way, how is the view up there?

Can you see everything all right?

- I can see everything just fine.

- Goodnight, Detective.

Why do we have to go through this every damn time?

Don't you get it?

I don't want to hear it.

- [Chloe] Yeah, well, you never want to hear it,

that's the problem.

- [Jonathan] No, no, no, the problem is

you can't get it through your head I don't care.

- [Chloe] I'm just trying to get the right to decide

what goes on in my own house.

- [Jonathan] Oh, here we go.

You are not fooling anyone.

This little touchy feely side of you,

I don't buy it, not for a second.

- Jonathan. - Just save it.

- Just listen to me! - Enough!

- [Chloe] Please just stop shouting at me.

- [Jonathan] I said shut up!

(dish shatters)

(pensive jazz music)

- They didn't find Crane's prints on the fire escape.

- Why aren't you asleep?

- Nothing in the house either.

- Makes sense.

No prints at the other two scenes either.

Guy wore gloves.

Good thing about that watch crystal.

So, what about ballistics?

- Well, just like we thought,

Heath was shot with a nine millimeter.

Still waiting to see if the slugs

match the other victims.

He was a contractor, right?

- [Richard] Yeah.

- How come all we've got is a set of car keys?

Wouldn't he have a truck?

- That's all they found.

- How's it going over there?

- Oh, just dandy.

- They got into a pretty big fight last night.

Sounded pretty intense.

She sounded scared.

- And what did you do?

- Nothing.

- [Richard] Well, let's keep it that way, okay?

- He's a bastard.

- Yeah, which makes her the bimbo who married a bastard,

so how's that our problem?

- All right, forget it.

- No Molly, you forget it.

And do us both a favor, will you?

Get some sleep.

- Bye.

(horn honking)

- Is this enough to take care of it?

How much is it? - It's just $2.

- Just two, okay.

Give $2 tip and just keep the change.

- Thank you.

- Thanks so much.

- Chloe?

I didn't mean to scare you.

- Is everything okay?

- She's fine.

- Whatever you say.

- Thank you.

- Are you all right?

- Do you need to be somewhere?

- You're an artist.

I was in your studio.

I saw some of your work.

Probably should have asked first.

- I don't seriously we have any secrets from you.

- I liked it.

- Really?

- Well, you know, I'm no expert, but yeah.

- Thank you.

- So, you come all the way over here for art supplies?

- Brushes, actually.

There's a store down the street.

Can't find them anywhere else.

You were the last person I expected to run into.

- Who were you expecting?

- No one.

- Mrs. Brooks, you weren't surprised to see me.

You were scared.

You still are.

Who did you think I was?

- We're back to Mrs. Brooks?

- Have it your way.

- What's wrong?

- I'm a cop.

I get lied to by the best.

You're not even in their league.

- I don't know what you mean.

- The address for the art supply store is on the bag.

It's not on this street.

It's nowhere near here.

None of my business.

- I went to see a lawyer.

A divorce lawyer.

Just please don't tell Jonathan.

- You thought your husband was following you?

- Wouldn't be the first time.

I told you, he's very territorial and that includes me.

- Does he know you wanna leave?

- I can't tell him.

I don't know what he would do.

- Has he threatened you?

I heard you guys arguing last night.

- I'm just so afraid of him.

(ominous music)

- [Jonathan] It wasn't my fault.

(Jonathan and Chloe arguing indistinctly)

Am I missing something?

Because I want to hear it.

I want to hear what you (mumbles).

- [Chloe] Jonathan, I--

- Starting, $1,200 dress that I've seen you wear never.

And the shoes, $325.

And the bag, $190.

- [Chloe] Because I'm trying to look nice for you, Jonathan.

- [Jonathan] What am I supposed to do, Chloe?

Do you want me to quit my job because you're bored?

- [Chloe] No, I don't, but I--

- [Jonathan] 'Cause you're so lonely in your ivory tower.

- [Chloe] I am lonely.

- [Jonathan] Oh, you poor thing.

Here's a violin, start playing it.

- [Chloe] Because you're never here.

Half the time I don't even know where you are.

- [Jonathan] I'm at work!

I'm with clients.

What do you want?

You're pathetic.

- [Chloe] Don't you walk away from me.

Jonathan!

Jonathan, listen to me!

(unsettling music) (daytime traffic noises)

(unsettling music)

- Backup's three minutes away.

- He's in there, Richard.

- Your call, partner.

- Cover the back.

30 seconds.

(door bangs)

(tense jazz music)

(Molly grunts) (body thuds)

(man grunts)

Son of a bitch! - Molly!

Molly, Molly, you got him!

It's all right, it's all right, you got him.

He's done.

- Dammit!

Damn.

- The gardener must have figured with everyone away

he was looking at an easy score.

- Just a B and E then?

- He had the old lady's jewelry in his pocket.

- My office tomorrow morning.

- Was it him?

- No.

- You're not going?

- I don't know.

- Yes, sir.

Yeah, I understand.

Yeah, they're here right now.

Yeah, I will.

Yeah.

Okay, goodbye.

We gave it a shot.

Best laid plans and all that.

Let's shut it down.

- Just like that?

- You've been compromised, Detective.

Half the neighborhood was out there last night.

You don't think Crane will hear about this?

- So what if he does?

We spread it around.

Let the neighbors think Baker tripped the alarm.

Cops responded in record time.

- I'm not wasting anymore of this department's resources

to find out what we already know.

Crane won't come within a mile of that house now.

- What's it gonna cost the department

if he kills somebody else?

- Meaning?

- Meaning I think Richard's right.

We can't pull the plug, not yet.

- Give me one good reason.

- He's got nowhere else to go.

- We're going to stick around here for a while longer,

but you have to decide what you want to do

about your situation.

It's the only way things will change.

- What if Jonathan gets really upset?

- I know.

I know, yeah.

Sorry I'm late, I got caught up.

- So, what's the deal with you two?

- Deal?

- All that girl talk in the backyard.

What's the matter, no boys allowed?

- She needed my help.

There's a situation.

- Yeah, you should not get involved

with these people, Molly.

You know?

We're here to do a job, that's it.

- Richard.

- Look, you let yourself get distracted,

your mind elsewhere, somebody's gonna get hurt.

- I can handle it.

- Like you handled it last night with Henry Baker?

All right, look, you handle it.

(sports commentator on TV)

- [Chloe] I'm sick of this, Jonathan.

- [Jonathan] Turn that back on.

- I won't. - Turn the television back on.

- [Chloe] Not until you tell me where you've been.

- [Jonathan] Do not start with me, Chloe.

- [Chloe] I've been calling for hours.

- [Jonathan] I mean it, not tonight.

- [Chloe] You don't answer your phone or call me back.

I don't know if something's wrong.

Maybe there was an accident, maybe you were hurt.

- [Jonathan] Thank you for your concern.

- [Chloe] I want to know where you've been.

- [Jonathan] It's none of your damn business.

- [Chloe] You were with her, weren't you?

- [Jonathan] With who?

Who are you talking about?

- [Chloe] I'm not stupid, Jonathan.

- [Jonathan] Then stop acting like it.

- [Chloe] I can see what's going on.

- [Jonathan] I think it's time you should go to bed.

- [Chloe] I know you were with her.

I know you were with her!

Why can't you just admit?

- [Jonathan] Shut up!

Shut up!

(commotion rumbling) (dish clattering)

You don't question me ever.

Do you understand that?

- [Chloe] No, I do not understand,

and I haven't understood for a long time.

- [Jonathan] I do what I do, Chloe.

That's all you need to remember.

And if you don't like it, there's the door.

Now, have I cleared up every little thing for you?

- [Chloe] Why do you treat me like this?

- [Jonathan] I swear to God!

- [Chloe] What did I do, huh?

Tell me.

I don't even exist now.

It's like I'm standing here and you see right through me.

Where are you going?

- I warned you.

Just like mine. (smacking sound)

- I'm just so afraid of him.

- Just shut up!

- Get away from here!

Think again, loser.

Stay there, don't move.

- Are you happy now, Chloe?

Is this what you wanted?

- Shut up.

Did he hit you?

Did he hit you?

My God.

Do you want to press charges?

He will go to jail tonight.

- I just want him to go away.

Just make him go away!

- Chloe!

(Jonathan chuckles)

- What did you just call her?

(Jonathan chuckling)

- I'm going to be filing charges.

I want her off the street

and I want you people out of my house right now.

- You ought to show your wife some more respect.

She's the only reason you're not in jail right now.

- What did she tell you,

that she's so lonely and it's not about the money?

Yeah, don't kid yourself.

She's very happy with her current lifestyle.

- You're a real piece of work, Mr. Brooks.

You sleep around, you slap your wife when she crosses you,

and by God she better be grateful for that big house

and everything in it,

because she has nothing to complain about.

- Go to hell.

- I'll arrange for an officer

to take your statement, Mr. Brooks,

but in my opinion Detective Logan overstepped

her discretionary bounds tonight.

She witnessed a domestic assault.

- What are you talking about?

- She should have arrested you

even if your wife chose not to press charges.

- My mistake, Leo.

Mrs. Brooks asked me to cut him some slack.

- Wait a minute.

- We can pull the plug on the surveillance

if that's what you want, but if we do,

I'm afraid we'll have to reconsider

what charges to file against you.

- No, you can't do this.

You can't just bully me into getting what you want.

- No one wants to bully you, Mr. Brooks.

No, that would be wrong.

We're only trying to do our job.

- You stay away from me.

And you stay away from my wife.

(door slams)

- Anything else I should know?

- It happened just like I said.

- You have three bodies, detective.

That is your priority.

- What am I supposed to do,

pretend like I don't hear anything?

- Tell her to visit a friend, stay with her mother,

advise her to get out of the house.

That's all you can do until we find Crane.

Is that understood?

- Understood.

- Get some rest.

You look like hell.

- He left.

- What?

- Brooks.

Took a couple of bags like he'd be gone for a while.

I thought you should know.

(unsettling music)

- Thank you for helping me.

- What happens now?

- I tell Jonathan I want a divorce.

I've wanted to leave him for so long,

I just never had the courage before.

- He'll fight you.

You could end up with nothing.

- I've lived with nothing before.

I can do it again.

I just want my life back.

(unsettling music)

(Molly sighs)

(pensive jazz music)

(lock beeping)

(pensive jazz music)

(phone ringing)

- Logan.

(sirens wailing)

- [Operator] 911, what is your emergency?

- [Man] You're too late!

(gunshots firing)

(sirens wailing)

- Warehouse is supposed to be empty this early.

Rent-a-Cop's making his rounds, sees a phone light on.

Somebody's making a call.

- What'd he do?

- Checks it out.

Some guy's got one of the foremen taped to the phone,

gun to his head.

Calls it in.

Turns out there's another 911 on the line

from the inside as they speak.

- Well, is it him?

Is it Crane? - Don't know yet.

They're still in there.

- All right, let's get that Rent-a-Cop out.

- No, no, no.

Foremen got popped right off, just like the others.

Moron hears the shots, decides today's the day

he's gonna earn his 10 bucks an hour,

goes back for Houdini.

- Oh, Christ.

- Managed to get himself shot a couple of times

before he hid in one of the storage rooms.

- Well, is he still alive?

- He whines over the radio every now and then,

so we know he's still breathing.

Says he's sure Houdini's still inside.

Building's buttoned up tight.

- All right, let's go.

- Yeah, except there's one more thing.

Rent-a-Cop says he's one of ours.

- He's dressed as a cop?

- Which explains the disappearing act.

- Uniforms get the call, he blends in

when no one can notice.

If we let those guys in there

they're gonna start shooting each other.

(unsettling music)

- [Uniformed Man] Detective.

- Don't move!

- Over here.

He's hurt bad.

- Wait!

Dammit.

Crane, put your weapon down.

Step out where I can see you.

There are 100 cops outside, Terry.

You're not getting out this time.

Put your gun down!

Put your gun down.

Don't make me shoot you, Terry.

- Who's Terry?

You're too late.

- No!

(gunshot blasts)

- Guy's name was Mick Lambert.

Six months ago his wife was carjacked, shot in the head.

911 call fell through the cracks.

Nobody showed up for over an hour.

She bled out at the scene.

- They were too late.

- They're checking his piece in the warehouse,

see if it matches with the other shootings.

- Any connection between Lambert and the four victims?

- No, not so far.

Looks like the guy just snapped.

Wasn't particular who he hurt.

- How did Crane's print end up in Heath's apartment?

- Let's find out, shall we?

Just for the hell of it.

Meantime, pack it up.

Officially we got the son of a bitch.

- All right, I'm thinking this wasn't the first time

the gardener broke into that house.

Maybe he took the watch before, sold it or hocked it.

- And it just appeared at Heath's apartment?

- You got any better ideas?

- Suppose Lambert didn't kill Heath.

Suppose somebody else did.

- You think that's how the crystal got there?

Crane's some kind of copycat?

- Where is he?

Why can't we find him?

- Molly, listen.

What happened before, I'm sorry.

- Forget it.

- No, no, no.

I should've known better.

You're a good cop.

You're a good partner.

I know you'd never let anything

get in the way of doing the job.

(pensive jazz music)

- I saw on the news about the killer.

- Yes, ma'am.

We'll be out of your hair in no time.

- I went to see the lawyer again.

I'm gonna do it.

I'm gonna divorce Jonathan.

- Listen to me, get out of here now,

before he gets back.

Find someplace safe where he can't find you.

- I have to be careful from now on.

My lawyer tells me I can't do anything

to jeopardize my case.

- The case?

You're going after the money.

- No.

Well, I mean, yes,

but I meant what I said.

I don't care about the money.

- Then walk away right now.

- I can't let Jonathan get away with what he did to me.

All he cares about is the money.

Taking it is the only way to make him suffer the way I have.

- Yeah, well, good luck with that.

- I never could have done this without you.

(phone ringing)

- Hello?

- [Chloe] Detective Logan?

- Chloe?

What is it, what's wrong?

- [Chloe] Jonathan just called and I told him.

I said I wanted a divorce.

He went crazy.

I've never heard him like that before.

- Where is he?

- [Chloe] He's on his way right now.

I'm so scared, I just don't know what to do.

Oh my God, a gun?

Jonathan, no!

(door bangs)

(tense music)

- Chloe!

- You just made a huge mistake.

- Don't.

(gunshots firing)

(gunshot fires) (Jonathan groans)

(gun clatters)

Chloe!

- [Chloe] My husband was just shot.

I don't know.

I'm not quite sure but-- - Chloe?

- [Chloe] Someone's in the house.

I don't know what's going on, but--

- [Molly] It's all right, I'm here.

- She called you, that's why you went over there?

- Yes.

- And what time was that?

- About 2:00.

I noticed the clock.

- Mrs. Brooks said on the phone

that her husband was coming over to kill her.

- Well, no, she didn't know what he was gonna do.

She had asked for a divorce and she was worried about

what was gonna happen when he got there.

- You didn't think to call it in and get your partner,

get some backup?

- [Molly] There wasn't enough time.

- Wasn't time?

- Look, I know, but this had been going on,

and I had seen what he could do,

and I was concerned for her safety.

- And what time was it, Molly, when she called you?

- Are you getting senile, Richard?

I just told...

Wait a minute, what's going on?

- We're taking your statement.

If you want to stop now, that's your right.

- Why would I wanna stop?

- You shot a citizen in his own home.

- Who shot at me first, remember?

- After you kicked in the door.

- She called me.

I was there at her request.

It was a domestic disturbance.

(Leo sighs)

(Richard sighs)

- Molly, the lady didn't say anything about calling.

- What?

- According to her, she was in the bedroom with her husband.

They heard the door.

He grabbed his gun and went to investigate.

- Wait, no.

- She called 911, then she heard the shots.

She didn't even know who was in the house

until you walked into her bedroom.

- Richard.

- She told us she said she was afraid

you were gonna kill her too.

- Wait a minute, there has to be some misunderstanding.

- She was real clear.

- I was trying to help her.

Richard, remember after her husband moved out, I--

- Moved out?

- Yes, we talked about this.

- We're done here.

- Wait, no.

- You're not gonna say anything else, you understand?

Not a word.

- Lieutenant, please, let me go over there

and we can talk to her about this.

- Listen to your partner, Detective.

(Molly sighs)

- So that's it?

- Stay behind your desk.

You're on administrative duty until further notice.

(phone beeping)

(dead line beeping)

- Not a good idea.

- We need to straighten this out.

- Yeah, I intended to at the right time and place.

Meanwhile, you're in deep enough.

You're not helping the cause.

- What, you don't believe me?

- Don't believe you, the hell you think I'm doing here?

I'm trying to help you.

Who told you he moved out?

- You.

You told me.

- No, I said he left, took a couple of bags.

- No.

No, I thought--

- It was a business trip.

We found the plane ticket in his coat.

He was in Chicago on business.

Yeah, you starting to get the picture?

(phone rings)

- Yeah?

- [Chloe] Molly, are you all right?

They won't let me talk to you.

I don't understand.

Are you in some kind of trouble?

- They think I went over there to kill your husband.

- [Chloe] What?

No!

- You didn't tell them that you called me.

Without that phone call, I had no reason to be there.

- [Chloe] Oh my God, I didn't realize.

I just wanted...

My lawyer told me that I had to be careful.

- Yeah, well, maybe a little too careful.

- [Chloe] I'm so sorry.

I never meant to do anything to hurt you.

Just please believe me.

- All right, okay?

- [Chloe] I'm just so afraid.

Just tell me what you want me to do.

- Tell them that you called me, that you were afraid of him,

and that you called me and you begged me to help you.

- [Chloe] They won't believe me now.

- Well, make them believe you.

Tell them that you were in shock and that you forgot,

and now you remember the phone call,

you remember everything.

- [Chloe] I just don't want to be afraid anymore.

- Just listen to me and there'll be nothing to be afraid of.

- [Chloe] All right.

All right, I'll do it.

- Chloe, look, I'm sorry, okay?

Everything is gonna be okay.

Chloe?

You called in Josh?

- Wasn't my idea.

After his little performance the other day

his name came up.

- He hates my guts.

- Everybody knows that.

Don't worry about it, all right?

- You hear anything from Mrs. Brooks?

- Like what?

- What about the phone records?

- Still checking.

- Still checking?

How hard can it be?

She called me, I told you.

- I'm still checking because you told me, otherwise it...

It all falls apart, Molly.

I gotta go.

(ominous music)

(keyboard clacking) (ominous music)

(seagulls calling)

- Detective Logan.

- Detective Corland.

- Mike.

Right this way.

Brooks family all love to sail.

The old man used to go out a couple times a week.

He could afford any boat he wanted,

but this was his first love.

- Hm.

See what you mean.

- Hey, I heard about Jonathan Brooks getting shot.

Some kind of police call.

This have anything to do with that?

- Did you know him?

- Well, didn't exactly run in the same social circles.

(Mike chuckles)

There she is.

- I read your report on how Mr. Brooks died,

but I'm not really up on my nautical terms.

- It's pretty simple, really.

The boom, that's the piece

that pulls the sail off the mast there,

swivels side to side depending on the wind.

You wanna tack the boat, change directions,

swing the boom across, catch the wind.

- So, Mr. Brooks Senior fell into the water

when the boom swung unexpectedly?

- Wind caught it.

One of those freak things.

Happens though.

According to Mrs. Brooks, he went right over the side.

She didn't know how to handle the boat.

There was nothing she could do.

The old man drowned.

- Mrs. Brooks, Jonathan's wife, Chloe?

- Yeah, the only other person on board.

She was out there for hours before anyone saw her.

She drifted so far it took two days to find Brooks's body.

- Where was her husband?

- Out of town.

Business, I think.

- Your report said that

there were no contusions on the body.

Wouldn't there have been a mark

from when the boom hit him?

- Well, there wouldn't be, would there?

I mean, all that salt water, all those fishes.

- You know, they inherited 68 millIon dollars

when Brooks's father died.

- I read that.

- Didn't it make you suspicious when the old man

ended up in the water?

- We may look like a small operation to you, Detective,

but we take our police work just as seriously.

I interviewed Chloe Brooks three times myself.

If she was lyin', well, she's gotta be

about the coldest fish in the sea.

- Well, thank you for your time.

- And besides, what you said, they inherited,

not exactly true.

- What do you mean?

- Well, the old man wanted to protect his family fortune.

He insisted his lawyers draft an agreement

in case she was unfaithful or tried to get a divorce.

- She signed a prenup?

- Yeah.

Showed it to me herself.

All the money, that was in Jonathan's name.

- Not anymore.

(unsettling music)

(gunshots blasting)

Five months ago the old man took a header off the boat

and she's the only witness.

- I know all about it.

We ran a check on the Brooks

before the surveillance was approved.

- Well, nobody told me.

- What's to tell?

Investigation turned up nothing.

- Yeah, except with the investigation,

all the red tape, the will has been caught up

in probate for months.

Do you know when Brooks finally got the money?

- No.

- Two weeks ago.

Right before we set up surveillance on Crane.

- So?

- So?

She's the only heir.

68 million dollars, Richard,

and she only gets the money if her husband dies,

which he does right after the will comes through.

- Yeah, except he didn't die, he was shot,

and she didn't shoot him, you did.

(Richard sighs)

There's something you better hear.

(button beeps)

- [Chloe] I'm just so afraid.

Just tell me what you want me to do.

- [Molly] Tell them that you called me,

that you were afraid of him,

and that you called me and you begged me to help you.

- [Chloe] They won't believe me now.

- [Molly] Well make them believe you.

Tell them that you were in shock

and that you forgot, and now you remember the phone call,

you remember everything.

- [Chloe] I just don't want to be afraid anymore.

- [Molly] Just listen to me

and there'll be nothing to be afraid of.

(button beeps)

- Look at your partner, Detective.

He's unhappy.

See, he trusts you.

He trusts you so much he's been going around

trying to prove this lady asked for you help that night.

Now all he's got to show for his trust

is a tape of you making threats.

- I didn't threaten her.

- She told us all about it, Molly.

- About what?

- How you were following her.

Showed up everywhere she went.

- Wait a second.

- We got this parking attendant, saw you two together.

Says Mrs. Brooks looked pretty scared.

- Yeah, she'd thought her husband was following her.

- So you were with her?

- But I wasn't, no.

I was down--

- Tell me about Josh Acres.

- Aw, look, Lieutenant, I already told ya,

they had a bad breakup, he made some wild accusations.

- Accusations which may indicate a pattern of behavior.

- Look, I ran into Mrs. Brooks.

That's it.

We had a cup of coffee and that's when she told me

she was gonna get a divorce.

- Which also makes no sense.

You tell us she signed some prenup

but she's talking about divorce.

- I just found out about the prenup myself.

I swear she said that she did not want him in the house.

- She claims you created the situation.

Took an instant dislike to her husband,

confronted him that night, brought things to a head.

- What?

- She came to me, Molly.

She asked me to do something.

I tried to talk to you.

I warned you, keep your mind on the job.

- She's lying.

Guys!

- Someone from IA will be here in the morning.

It's their call whether to recommend the DA file charges.

Meantime, you're on suspension.

Go home.

I suggest you talk to a lawyer.

(unsettling music)

- Richard.

Read it.

- Ballistics?

- From Lambert's victims at the warehouse.

It says all four, including himself,

were killed with the same gun.

The only one not killed with his nine millimeter

was Michael Heath.

- So Lambert had two guns.

- The guy was a freak.

This whole thing was a ritual.

He did everything exactly the same way every time.

The same rope, the same tape, the same words.

Why would he switch guns?

- All right, all right.

Let's say Lambert didn't kill him.

Who did?

(Molly sighs)

- Richard, I need you to do me a favor.

I need you to get me a copy of the ballistics report

on Brooks's gun that night.

- Whoa.

First of all my friend, you're on suspension.

- I need to compare the two.

- And secondly, what makes you think Brooks was the copycat?

- Not Brooks.

- Not Brooks?

The wife?

(Richard chuckles)

You say you think the wife killed Heath?

- She set the whole thing up.

She planted the watch crystal so we'd go after Crane.

She made sure that we got into the house.

She hooked me in so I would kill her husband for her.

- Molly, this is--

- She planned it that way from day one.

It was about the money, Richard.

It was always about the money.

I take the fall and she walks away clean.

Think about it, it's brilliant.

- Except for Crane, huh?

What happened to him?

She kill him, too?

- I don't know, maybe.

Maybe the mother, both.

I need to see the ballistics report.

- You know I can't do that.

- I am telling you it is going to match.

She used her husband's gun to kill Heath.

That's how good she is.

So good she made me feel like I was doing the right thing.

- I'll see what I can do.

(ominous music)

- She has two different area codes.

(ominous music)

Mrs. Crane?

- Yes, I hired Mr. Heath, but to renovate the bathroom here,

not the house in the city.

- But you had the bill sent to the city address.

- Well, I gave them both numbers

in case he needed to reach me.

- Why did you tell everyone that you were going to Montana?

- Well, I usually visit my sister this time of year anyway.

I thought it was the easier way,

there wouldn't be any questions.

- Questions about what?

- I assume that's why you're here,

'cause she changed her mind.

- Who?

- Mrs. Brooks, across the street.

- I'm fine, sweetheart.

I'm fine.

- Terry became fascinated with her.

He started sneaking over there to watch her.

I tried to put a stop to it.

Happened more and more,

until one night she was in the hot tub.

She wasn't wearing a suit.

He was in the bushes.

She saw him, saw what he was doing,

and she called the police.

- Someone came out to the house?

- Yeah, they told him what would happen

if he ever did it again.

I was hoping that would be the end of it,

but Mrs. Brooks called a couple of days later.

She said she wasn't feeling safe anymore,

but she didn't want to press charges.

- Was it her idea that you send Terry away.

- Yeah, she suggested if she left for a while,

a couple of months, maybe he'd stop fixating on her.

- You've been here the whole time?

- Why are you here, Detective?

(phone dialing)

- [Richard] Walker.

- I figured it out, Richard.

I'm going over there

and this time she's gonna tell me the truth.

- [Richard] Molly, where the hell are you?

- Crane didn't go to Montana.

- [Richard] Tell me where you are!

- But Chloe made sure he and his mother

stayed out of town long enough to set me up for this.

- [Richard] Listen to ne, I know it was her.

You were right about the gun.

- Ballistics matched?

- [Richard] Yeah.

Now, I'm already here, I'll take care of this.

What you gotta do,

you gotta stay the hell away from this house.

- I killed him, Richard.

I shot the son of a bitch just like she wanted me to.

- [Richard] Look, you didn't know.

You were trying to do the right thing.

- This is the right thing right now.

- [Richard] No, stay away from here, you hear me?

Under no circumstances...

Well, looky here.

- Richard?

- [Richard] Wait a minute.

Wait a minute!

(gunshots firing)

- Richard!

(tense jazz music)

Don't.

(objects shattering)

(tense jazz music)

There's no place to run, Chloe.

I know everything now.

- Not quite everything.

- Put the gun down.

Where's Richard?

Put the gun down now.

I don't want to shoot you.

- You sure about that?

- Put the gun down.

- I told you to stay away from the house.

- Richard?

- Uh-uh-uh, nice and easy.

You know your problem, partner?

You're so predictable.

A blind man could see what you're gonna do next.

- This was your idea?

- Well, I can't take all the credit.

You were right about her, she's brilliant.

She comes over one day,

complains about some perv across the street

who's spying on her.

We got to talking, sorta hit it off.

One thing and another, here we are 68 million bucks later.

- You killed Michael Heath.

You planted the watch crystal.

And then you got me in the house

with your bad heart story

and you let her do the rest.

- Oh, don't say it like that.

It's not like you didn't get all warm and fuzzy, right?

Doing all the right things.

- Can we just finish this?

- This?

Tonight.

This is all part of the plan.

- Well, look around.

You come in here, you wreck the place trying to get at her.

Everybody already thinks you've been stalking her.

I mean, clearly this obsession can lead to

only one inevitable, tragic ending.

- You kill me.

- Not me.

Her.

- Think about it, Chloe.

You're gonna kill me with your husband's gun?

The same gun that killed Michael Heath.

It's not gonna take the police very long

to figure that out.

- What am I, a moron?

I just told you that the ballistics matched.

The gun I used on Heath's in the river.

- What about the Cranes?

- What about them?

- Well, I thought Mrs. Crane should know

that her son was being setup for murder.

Turns out she still has the broken watch.

- I thought you took care of that.

- Don't listen to her.

(gunshot fires) (Richard groans)

- Richard!

- Don't!

Put the gun down.

- We can still work this out, Molly.

- Put the gun down.

- Think about it.

All that money.

No one would ever have to know.

- I would.

- Whatever you say now,

whatever you tell them,

they won't believe it.

- Why not?

It's about the money, isn't it?

Everybody knows.

It's always about the money.
