Original subtitles

In New York City's war on crime,

the worst criminal offenders are pursued

by the detectives of the Major Case Squad.

These are their stories.

Hey!

Ah, there's my little birthday sister!

Come here. Ugh!

-Ah, come in! -Mwah! Happy birthday.

How's my boy?

Good, how you doin' Pop?

Good to see you.

Jillian, hi.

-You look beautiful. -Oh, thank you.

Well, come on.

Come on, birthday girl.

Come on in, come on and have a drink.

Tripster's here!

Ah, Trip.

Good to see you.

Where's... Where's Grace and the girls?

Some sort of school thing.

No bother, no bother.

Make sure everyonehas a drink!

Yeah, come on in. Come on.

Hi.

Aren't you justthe cutest thing?

What do you say, Emma?

Xie xie yi-yi.

Isn't that just...only three and she speaks

all that moo goo gainese of yours.

She's four now.

I always forget her age.

Trip's girls are justso much taller.

Not that...

I mean, she'll never looklike family anyway.

He won't talk, so I got a line out

to his ex.

Not that Dad will ever.

Dad'll never what?

Retire.

You got that right.

-With Anna in my corner, -I'll outlive both of you.

Oh, say...

I'm taking Emma hereto the hockey game tomorrow.

Plenty of roomin the box.

The box? That's awesome.

Chance, what do you say, son?

Jillian and I are jammed.

With the move.

So I set fire to the pile of currency

and said,"Can I leave now, comrade?"

Jonas, you are so bad.

He rewrote the trust, Anna.

You don't have to laughso hard at his jokes anymore.

When do I get my birthday cake?

Frosty on the outside,

but moist on the inside.

You talk nonsense. Go dim the lights.

I bet you have to keep 'em pretty dim

for my old man.

Trip...stop it.

Anna, what is taking so...

She wanted me to dim the lights.

Happy birthday, Emma!

Come on, Trip,stay the night at our place.

Jillian will behitting the sack.

You and I can stay uplike old times.

Nah...

I think I...I need some air, my brother.

Come on, Trip...

I wish I knew how to cheer him up.

Don't worry, Anna's on the case.

Mommy has to go out.

Daddy will read youa story.

Oh yeah, I know a good oneabout a bull and a bear.

Daddy's silly.

Very silly.

Don't keep himup late.

Mr. Slaughter, your father's here.

Emma, your Uncle Triphad a lot to drink last night.

The best way to wake him up

is to make a lot of noise,okay?

Wake up, Uncle Trip!

Wake up!

Wake up!

Uncle Trip!

Take her out of here!

Jonas Slaughter III.

Heir to the Slaughter Radio Corporation.

Family calls him Trip.

Checked in a month ago.

Marriage problems.

Time of death, sometime last night.

His neighbors hear anything?

Suite across the hall was empty.

Suite next door was registered

to a Mr. Oskar Landau of Chicago.

He checked out this morning.

Let's track him down.

He's definitely beenstrangled from behind.

See?

Some kind of rubbery...

something.

Can you give me a hand?

It's a, uh... latex full body suit.

He died with his freak on.

The whole fun pack's in here!

Shaved his body, slapped on the latex.

Maybe a friend helpedwith those hard-to-reach places.

The watches are gone.

The safe's empty.

A Historical Review.

It's an economics textbook.

If he'd stuck to those curves,he'd still be alive.

He and his wife Grace, they were going through

a difficult period.

My fault. I worked him too hard.

They were reconciling.

My boy. My boy.

I'm here now, Dad.

Anna's worried, you go home.

I can take over here.

My son Chance. My right hand.

We're sorryfor your loss.

Dad said Trip had been robbed.

His wallet was missing,some watches.

He keep anything elseof value?

The family jewels.

Cuff links, a ring like mine.

They're from Dad.

He might have been killedduring some kind of sex play.

We found him in latex under his robe.

He'd...had a lot to drink at the party.

So his judgment...

Who knows?

I need to make a call.

-Who knows? -Might be Trip's wife.

Maybe latex is exhibit Ain their divorce.

The kinkiest Trip ever got

was muting the sports channel

when we had sex.

Um, your father-in-lawsaid that you were reconciling.

That family runs on denial.

We've been insettlement talks for months.

But now you standto inherit it all.

Wouldn't that be nice?

All the family's money is in a trust

that Jonas just rewrote for his dragon lady.

Trip was making sure our girls

got their fair share.

But now...

Do you mind us asking--why were you getting divorced?

He was always a drinker.

But since his father married Anna five years ago,

he's been...raging.

Do you think he wasseeing somebody?

I'm not sure.

I know he took a couple of overnight trips

up to Hauser College.

Maybe he had a co-ed up there.

I need to get back to my girls.

Thank you for coming in.

The textbook in Trip's room was written by

a professor at Hauser.

So maybe Trip's co-ed is one of his students.

My students love my book.

It's the first to makea historical study

of yield curve theory.

I can sign itif you'd like.

Uh, sorry, Professor, we didn't bring it.

It's evidence.

We think one of your studentsleft it at a crime scene.

-My book? -Really?

Oh, I getthe faculty discount.

-They're visitors. -Okay.

We're checking your students'alibis for Saturday night.

They told us you screened a film.

Wall Street.

For my class in business ethics.

Could you confirm who was there?

We got a list of...

I was home.

I threw my back out at the gym.

That's quite a watchyou've got there,

Professor Lewis.

A gift from an admirer.

-Look how big the face is. -It really stands out.

I see I'm late for a meeting.

I'm sorry that I couldn't help.

Hairy knuckles, no hair on his arm.

He shaved,so he could wear latex.

Just like Trip.

Maybe the same friendhelps him

with those hard-to-reachplaces.

Dad, the police won't release the body

until their tests are done.

The trust lawyerskeep calling me about your...

Chance, look,hold them off for me, will you?

Just... Just do that for me, will you?

Yeah.

Professor Lewis tell you I was his friend?

No, but his super told us you visit once a week.

Are you gonna take your coat off?

Did you just come froma job?

Okay, here's the deal.

I don't break any laws.

I don't allow any touching.

My work isn't sexual, it's therapeutic.

You're a dominatrix.

You help your clients work out their fantasies

in a safe way.

Have you ever met or heard

Professor Lewis talk about this man,

Jonas "Trip" Slaughter?

Nope.

Were you working last Saturday night?

Yep, all night.

My straight job. 911 operator.

911, that's a tough job.

All the responsibility,

none of the control.

But I guess in this life,you have the control.

'Cause your clients,

they...

I guess theyopen up to you.

I'm not telling you what Larry's told me.

But it's his fault for bringing attention to you.

He really needsto learn a lesson, I think.

Okay.

Larry teaches business ethics,

but he says it's all a sham.

Says he sold out his ethics.

And that's whyhe needs to be punished?

Says he sold his wife to a billionaire

for a book deal.

"I was weak, they bought me off."

He's like a broken record.

Just makes me wanna smack him harder.

I gotta take a shower.

Could you let yourselves out?

Billionaire.

The naughty professor was married

to Jonas Slaughter's wife?

Latex.

It might be the least

of the Slaughter familysecrets.

A murder?

Next door to where I was sleeping?

It's chilling, just chilling.

What time did you go to sleep, Mr. Landau?

About 9:30.

I had a 6:00 a.m. flight the next morning.

Since then, nine countries in eight days.

Practically the whole Byzantine Empire.

So did you hear anything that night?

Sorry, no.

I was listening to music.

Uh, your key card record

shows your doorwas opened at 9:19.

They keep track of that?

Aren't you inthe security business?

For oil fields and pipelines.

Anyway, I went to get ice.

I didn't see anybody,if that's what you're asking.

Okay, Mr. Landau, thanks for coming in.

Another perfect witness.

What's the story on this marriage

between the professor and Jonas Slaughter's wife?

That's the thing.

The only marriage on recordfor Professor Lewis

was to a Joan Morris.

They divorced nine years ago.

She lives in Californiawith their two sons.

So your lady in leather was lying.

Except, five years ago,

Professor Lewis' bookwas reissued.

He got a cross country book tour.

And a syndicated radio show

courtesy of Slaughter Broadcasting.

Five years ago is whenSlaughter got married to Anna.

So this book tour and the radio show

might have been a payoff.

But for what?

It says here that Anna got a Master of Finance

from Princeton.

Princeton's where Lewis taught

until he ended up at Hauser.

Looks like you'll be going to Princeton.

Found some yearbooks.

Faculty newsletters.

Lewis got travel grants back then.

And he liked to brag.

Here's the family in China at the Great Wall in 1994.

Lewis, his wife...

two kids, and a nanny.

A nanny.

See, that's her right there

with the red scarf blowing in the wind.

But this picture here,

this is when they got back from China.

See, the red scarf is tied to that backpack.

She's the one taking the pictures.

They brought their nanny back.

Look at this, graduation day, 1997.

Master of Finance graduate

Ann-Lee Leung

with her husbandProfessor Lewis.

No glasses,no more bad teeth.

Marrying Lewis is probablyhow she got to stay

in the country.

Two years after that,she ditched the professor.

Traded up to a billionaire.

She really blossomed.

Maybe that's what the payoffto Lewis was about.

Jonas Slaughter didn't wantthe world to know

that his new wife got her green card

the old-fashioned way.

And somehow he managed to gether marriage to Lewis

expunged from the records.

Lewis got paid off once.

Maybe he came back to the well

and ran into Trip.

Jonas, the detectives are here.

And you've watched that enough.

That's right.

I mean,that's the whole thing.

So, you said there werenew developments?

We believe your son was in contact

with Mrs. Slaughter's first husband.

Professor Lewis?

That marriage was annulled.

He took advantage of Anna.

So you bought his silencewith a syndicated radio show.

I just didn't want himspreading lies about my Anna.

-Please, yes, help yourself, -Detective.

That is the best candy in the world.

From Haci Bekirin Istanbul.

Trip used to love them too.

Did you know he'd beenin touch with Lewis?

Yes, Trip told me that...

he'd tried to re-negotiate.

I mean, pure blackmail.

We need some information about your marriage

to the professor.

It's all right, Jonas.

You stay here.

Larry just can't leave us alone.

What happened betweenthe two of you?

At first I was happy to work for the Lewises.

They were nice to me.

They said I could study in America.

After I came, Larry said I owed him.

He said his marriage was dead.

His wife wasn't being a good wife to him.

I felt sorry for him, and I went along.

His wife found out and kicked us out.

So you married him.

I couldn't go home to Yunan.

There was nothing there.

You still felt sorry for him or not?

He made me do things.

Play games I didn't want to.

Sex games?

Larry said he'd send me back to China

if I stopped.

When I got my green card,

I left and I never saw him again.

I told Jonas everything when we met.

He didn't judge.

He just took care of me.

He's the first good man I've known.

Mommy?

Excuse me.

The professor of pain.

Now I wanna smack him.

Are you suggesting I lied?

Yes.

We know all about your connection

to the Slaughters.

Now, answer the question.

Where were youthat Saturday night?

Yes, okay.

I was in New York.

Trip Slaughter left me an urgent message

to meet him at the bar across from his hotel.

He never showed.

You just don't listen,do you?

I'm done with him.

No, wait, I'm telling the truth.

Come on, Professor.

You're trying to blackmail the Slaughters.

No, no, it was Trip who sought me out.

He said there was a struggleover the family trust.

He wanted dirt on Anna.

I told Trip I wanted no part of it.

His father scares the hell out of me.

But didn't Trip already knowabout you and Anna?

He wanted to know about her life in Yunan.

Before she met you.

Yeah. She was very poor.

Life was very harsh.

She frequented the discos to meet foreigners

with foreign dollars.

That's how I met her.

You saved herfrom all that.

She saved herself.

She played me.

She's driven.

She'll walk all over you.

So Trip's wife implied that Anna

was getting Jonas to rewrite the family trust.

Now, if Trip tried to stop Anna...

We should have asked Annawhere she was Saturday night.

Not that her husbandcouldn't buy her

a proper alibi.

The guy's an expertat buying people's silence.

You know, the guestnext door to Trip

was travelingthe Byzantine Empire.

Which includes Turkey.

That's where Jonasgot these candies.

You two are whispering about me again.

Her Chineseis very bad.

She needs to spend some time in her motherland.

Sure, Istanbul. I was there Tuesday.

I got there around noon.

You run into Jonas Slaughter?

According to his jet's flight plan,

he got in two hours after you did.

Who I talk to isn't your business.

Well, you're obstructingour murder investigation.

Don't play games.

Slaughter sat down next to meat the hotel bar

in Istanbul.

He bought me a drink,we talked a little business.

He gave me his card and wished me well.

That's it?

Then two of his employeescame over.

Real fixers.

They told me his sonhad been murdered.

They knew I wasnext door.

I told them that I sawan Asian woman, pretty,

in the hallwayjust before 9:30.

They said she hadnothing to do with the killing,

and I'd be doing Mr. Slaughtera personal favor

if I didn't mention her.

A personal favor for Jonas Slaughter.

I'm sorry I lied.

You have all my numbers, you know how to find me.

His wife kills his son,

and Jonas Slaughter flieshalfway around the world

to protect her.

Now, that's love.

Trip told me he was leaningon Anna's ex for information.

What was he hoping to find out?

Something to convince Dadhe was being played

for a fool.

By Anna? Over the family trust?

Now how would that work?

The trust is for the benefitof my father's children.

Trip and myself.

Anna wantsthe trust changed

so Emma, my half sister,gets an equal share.

Emma and any other children Anna has with Jonas.

And until those kids turn 21,

she'd be their trustee.

She could end up controlling the trust.

Your father, he agreed to these changes?

Jonas just has tosign the papers.

After the birthday party,do you know if Jonas and Anna

stayed home?

Anna had a benefit to go to.

You moving out? Or are you moving in?

Out. To Washington State.

Jillian and I want our sonto grow up with fresh air

and mountains.

Away from all this.

Your father said that you were his right hand.

Dad exaggerates.

Trip was the company man.

Anyway, those plans are on hold now.

I have to see Dadthrough this time.

That's him now. Excuse me.

Well, we should go.

Could you walk us to the door?

So you don't like... What would she...

-She's your mother-in-law, -I guess, isn't she?

Chance told menot to mention this, but...

at the party, I walked in on them.

Walked in on... Trip and Anna?

The moment they saw me, they pulled apart.

When I heard about Trip,

it was the first thing I thought of.

Chance doesn't like Anna either.

But he doesn't wanna hurt his father.

It's just easier for him to move away.

So Anna might have flirted with Trip

to get herself into his hotel room.

And the latex could have beenher idea, to distract him.

And Trip was drunk enoughto go along.

And drunk enough to get himself strangled.

His guard was down, his latex up.

Eames.

Where?

We'll be right there.

Some of Trip's jewelry turned up at a pawnshop

on Baird Street in Chinatown.

She says there were no watches.

She says you speak Chineselike her.

-I got it, I got it. -So did I.

She bought them last week.

From this woman?

It's not her.

She says she got them from a friend

of her cousin's daughter.

That's him.

He gave me the jewelsas a tip.

You were working an out-call?

Actually, it was a training session.

This other guy, Larry,paid me to bring my gear

to the hotel.

And tell his friend there that I was a divorce gift.

Yeah.

He got my number off the web.

I met him at a bar

across the street from the hotel.

And he told me what his friend liked.

Which was what?

Larry said the guy was a heavy sub

into liquid latex.

That he needed SST.

But I'd have to get him good and drunk first.

That's how Larry put it, SST?

His words, not mine.

She left Trip drunk and helpless.

All Larry would have had to do

was walk in and finish him off.

An Asian dom, latex.

You know Larry wantedevery finger pointed at Anna.

Well, it worked with us for a while.

I've never seen herin my life.

I didn't hire herto go to Trip's room.

This story,it's Kafka-esque.

That would make you the bug, Larry.

You know what I like to do to bugs?

I like to watch my partnersquash them.

Look, so all this humiliation.

This beating yourself up over Anna,

how she used you...

It grates on you, doesn't it?

I admit to a certain resentment.

A certain resentment?

You want her to feel what you feel, humiliated.

Stepped on.

The way she stepped on you.

Have her beg meto take her back, yes.

So you hired Mrs. Cho to impersonate her.

To paint Trip in latex.

To embarrass her to see how low she would sink.

To get to you.

No.

No, stop.

You don't understand anything.

There is nothing low about being a domina.

Or about encasing oneselfin latex

to annihilate the senses.

All right. Okay, my mistake.

It's not what Anna did that debases her.

It's what she is.

Don't you see?

Yeah, I think I do see.

It's your lifestyle, it's sacrosanct to you.

Yes. It's not a joke.

SST. You know what that is?

I don't know, a supersonic jet?

-I give up. -What's SST?

Sissy Slut Training.

Your years in Viceweren't wasted.

Lewis didn't knowwhat it meant.

So he probably didn'ttell the Asian dom

that's what Tripwas into.

Well, not only that, but his lifestyle

is too important to what's leftof his self-image

to use it as a prop in murder.

Our Ms. Cho never spoke to him,

never saw Trip.

She's a plant.

And the jewelry she pawned in Chinatown,

also a plant to turn us away from Anna.

Istanbul, Chinatown.

Jonas Slaughter must havehired your Ms. Cho

to throw anotherload of mud in the water.

I hope Anna appreciateshow much Jonas loves her.

Jones, now's not the timeto make changes

to the family trust.

There are justtoo many questions.

About my wife?

This gossip?

How dare you Ivy League dummies

come into my home when I'm still in mourning

and question my judgment?

Go on, get out.

Get out.

You don't agree with them,do you, son?

I trust you, Dad. It's your call.

No, it's yours too now.

It's all right,you don't have to say it.

Ms. Cho covers her tracks well.

She gets paid in cash.

No cell phone in her name.

She travels.

Berlin, Tokyo, London, Oman.

A real world beater.

But none of it matches Jonas' travel schedule.

What dates, Berlin and Oman?

Berlin in October, Oman in December.

Oscar Landau.

The guest next door.

Oman in December, Berlin in October.

An oil security consultant.

A girl like Ellen might come in handy

to break the ice with businessmen,

politicians.

That's if Mr. Landau is really

in the oil business.

Between his room and Trip's...

connecting doors.

I'm seeing brass filings in the lock mechanism.

And this blank plate is brand new.

Somebody drilled out the old one

to get the lock open.

Landau could have done it.

Trip was at the party.

Mr. Landau killed Trip?

Painted him in latex,left him in the bed.

Landau travels mostly to countries with no oil.

The problems he cleans up probably aren't oil spills.

We have picturesto show you.

See if you recognize anyone from the hotel.

No, it wasn't her.

No, not her either.

Here's a photo of herwith you

at Dowland Park High in Chicago.

Class of '92.

Before you say, "Small world,"

we noticed you and Ms. Cho were often

in the same city at the same time.

I almost forgot.

Two more pictures.

That is a brass plate that was found

between the connecting doors of yours

and Trip Slaughter's room. It's brand new.

And this is a close-up

of brass fillings made from drilling open the lock.

Also brand new.

-If you have something to say, -Mr. Landau,

now is the time,

while we're still open for business.

Off the record?

Off the record.

Tell us about your employer.

Which one?

First was Trip.

He thoughthis stepmother Anna

was using undue influenceon his father

to get controlof the family trust.

He hired me to dig upsome dirt on her.

Your other employer, Chance Slaughter?

No.

Chance was disengagingfrom the family.

Moving out west.

Then who?

Trip was gettingno traction with his father.

He arranged for me to sit downone-on-one with the old man

and tell himwhat I'd found out.

After my presentation,

Mr. Slaughtermade it clear to me

just what he thoughtof Trip's disloyalty.

I came aroundto his point of view.

He hired you away from Trip.

The old man can bevery convincing.

He convinced you to kill Trip.

You want more, how aboutputting a deal on the table?

Mr. Landau, how about you cool your heels in jail

while I decide what kind of deal to offer you?

He's a cold, complicated man.

Not as complicatedas Jonas Slaughter.

So he had Landaukill Trip.

Then he had himthrow suspicion onto Anna.

And incriminateher first husband.

It's hard to see what he gets

out of creating all this confusion.

His right hand.

That's what he getsout of it.

Chance was disengaging.

But now with Trip's death...

Sacrifice one son...

to hang on to another.

People don't just hand you billions of dollars

because you're a nice guy.

Emma, no more.

Hey, have all you want.

Jonas?

Now, you go potty.

And then I'll make you hot chocolate.

What's the matter?

These two witches in the lobby.

They called Emma your "Little yellow kid."

Oh, God's sake.

When I got in the elevator,

I heard them.

They said I killed Trip.

Oh, I'm sorry, sweetheart.

I'm gonna go back to worktomorrow.

Maybe a good timefor Emma to go home.

Visit her real family.

Jonas...

I worry about Emma.

It's not fairto the child.

Security specialist. Who is he?

Who hired him?

We're not sure yet.

It has to be Anna.

Everything changed when she married your father.

It all turned upside down.

Trip saw it clearly.

I should have stuck by him instead of taking

the coward's way out.

By moving away?

Did you father talk you out of it?

Dad's not the type to admit a mistake.

He'd never divorce Anna. He's too proud.

And let his right handwalk way from the company,

from him?

He knows I'm just as stubborn as he is.

Actually, he asked me to talk to you.

Two weeks ago when I called him

after the sonogramto tell him it was a boy.

But Chance and I had our minds made up.

So what happens now?

Well, we can't leave him.

Especially now.

He'll be all alone.

-Alone? -What about Anna?

He's sending her away to Yunan.

With Emma.

He told me last night.

He said now he could be with his real family.

But I see what he's doing.

He's protecting her.

It's not love, it's Slaughter pride.

Well, he might have forced our hand

by overplaying his.

Arrest me?

But...my daughter's napping.

It's our nanny's afternoon off.

I can't leave Emma here alone.

Talk about bad timing.

You should call your husband.

We'll wait for him.

On what charge?

Well, don't say anything to them.

I'm on my way.

Change of plan. We're going home.

You told me Larry was responsible.

Well, we know better now.

Anyway, you have time to...

To make arrangements.

No, Jonas said I won't be held.

I can't wait to see what he pulls out

of his bag of tricks this time.

He doesn't need a bag of tricks.

He knows I'm innocent.

He does?

You think he went all the wayto Istanbul

because these areso delicious?

No, he went thereto meet a man

who said he saw a womanthat looked like you

outside Trip's room.

I've never been to Trip's hotel.

Jonas would know it's a lie.

He wouldn't worry about such things.

He's worried enough that he asked that man

to lie about what he saw.

As a personal favor to him.

Jonas has beenputting out fires for you

for the last two weeks.

You know, we trackedTrip's stolen jewelry

to a store in Chinatown.

You think I stole them?

So does Jonas.

He hired a woman to saythat she took them from Trip.

For a guy who thinksyou're innocent,

he's worked hardcovering your tracks.

But I am innocent!

Well, I gotta tell you,

all this covering upthat Jonas is doing

is making you lookawfully guilty.

Don't you think?

And you're makinga trip to China

with your daughter soon.

Jonas told his son,

now he can spend timewith his real family.

Oh, God, no, he can't be doing this.

He can't be.

Well, maybe we canbe proven wrong.

Anna?

Where are you?

Anna? Thank God.

I'm here now.

Uh, I'd like to talk to my wife alone please.

Oh, sweetheart.

They have no case.

You fly out tonight.

Someone said they saw me at Trip's hotel.

That's what the police told me.

-Don't worry, -I took care of it.

They know you took care of it.

They know you hired a womanto say she took Trip's jewelry

to Chinatown.

They don't know that.

I paid her to saythat Larry hired her.

But why?

Why did you do that?

What do you mean, why?

To protect you,of course.

Protect me?

I didn't kill Trip.

I know that.

Some people wantedto hurt you.

They're jealous of you.

You mean Trip?

Trip was trying to hurt me?

Jonas...

who killed him?

Tell me,

my husband, who killed your son?

Trip, was a...a lost boy.

He wanted to destroy us.

To humiliate us.

-I couldn't let him. -I had it done.

You killed your own son?

But family...

family is everything.

I had to,for our family.

To save our family.

Please, Anna,you mustn't worry.

I paid to spread aroundso much reasonable doubt,

you'll be fine.

Let's get thisover with, huh?

-We're ready now. -Thank you.

My lawyer willmeet us downstairs.

You were not wrong.

I guess someone left it on.

Why, Jonas?

Why did you want to send me away?

You and Emma are my family.

Trip was a lost boy.

He wanted to destroy us. Humiliate us.

I couldn't let him. I had it done.

Everything I did was for you.

To honor you, my husband.

To protect our child.

This is how you honor me?

You deceitful pieceof yellow trash.

All right, that's enough.

Jonas, don't say things like that!

You're under arrest, Mr. Slaughter.

Trip was right.

You were going to steal the trust.

No, not steal!

Just make a small piece for our child.

That mongrel?

Chance is my child, my son.

He talks like me, he looks like me.

You don't even speak the same language

in my own home!

You peasant! How dare you!

You peasant!

How can he say those things?

Everything I've done is to take care of him.

I wanted him to live forever.

Private jets, homes in five countries.

Mr. Slaughter redefines flight risk.

Mr. Slaughter's notgoing anywhere

until he clears his name.

He's not afraid of these charges.

Which, I point out, are based on a recording

made deceitfully by his wife,

who herself was under investigation

for this murder.

Yes, Ms. Ligotti.

Mr. Carver, I doubt a man with Mr. Slaughter's profile

could simply disappear.

I'm ordering the defendant to surrender his passport.

And I'm releasing him on his own recognizance.

My family is at my side.

My mind is quite clear.

I have nothing to fear from this web of lies

that they've woven around me.

I shall overcome it.

Like I've overcome all the challenges in my life.

There she is! The Chinese wife!

Please, leave me alone. No.

Poison.

Poison.

You ruined my family.

Chance, no!

Oh, my God.

Chance!

Oh, my...

Oh, my boy.

My boy.

I went to his house. Listen.

Don't--don't talk.

Listen... I killed Trip.

When Jillian was asleep...

I went to see him.

He was gonna humiliate you.

I-I killed him.

I'm sorry.

Oh, no.

Oh, no. My boy.

My beautiful boy.

Come on, let's go.

Let's go, you're gonnahave to get up.

I can't leave him.

Chance Slaughterkilled his brother.

Did you get him on tape?

Yeah--dying declaration!

Jonas Slaughter is innocent.

-Don't look. -Don't look.

Chance Slaughter killed his brother.

Careful, you have tolook after your son.

My grandson.

You be carefulof my boy!

My boy.

Proud now, Mr. Slaughter?

You proud now?

Your son lies...

Lies to save your neck.

That's what sons are for.
