Bunny...
...I want this on camera.

I have something important
to say.

All right, Dad. I'm recording.

There's a secret
I've been keeping for ten years,

and I need
to get it off my chest.

Dad.

Let me say this, Son.

It's time the truth came out.

Thanksgiving.

Ten years ago.

It was me.

I killed Barry.

Grandpa. No.

When you all were in bed,

I waited for Barry at the top
of the basement stairs,

and I pushed him to his death.

And then, I moved his body
into the sauna,

hoping that it would all
be written off as an accident.

That's not true, darling.

It is true.
And it's time I admit it.

Morgan Gillory, LAPD.

Freeze.
Morgan Gillory, Major Crimes.

It worked. You're frozen.

Give me that.
Where did you get this?

Checkout at the Dollar Store.

Turns out anyone can be a cop
if you wait in line long enough.

Chloe couldn't resist.

There should be a law
against these things.

That's what I was about to say.
It's an absolute outrage.

Why is Jon down here with Melon?
He never comes to this floor.

I have no idea.

Top of
the morning to ya, Selena.

Melon, Detective Jon.
What can I do for you gentlemen?

Celebrate with us.

We closed a cold case
this morning.

Which one?
We got a confession

on the Bucket Lane Murder.

Who confessed?

The guy
Captain and I thought did it.

The old man came clean
on his deathbed.

He brought champagne.

Maybe Lieutenant's
getting promoted.

Mm-mmm. Melon wouldn't
ride along for that.

This is a big win.

Some detectives never catch
their white whale.

He's right.
Enjoy your champagne.

Who has the good scotch?

Morgan Gillory, Liquor Patrol.

- How did you get that back?
- They come in a two-pack.

Lieutenant, what was that about?

The Bucket Lane Murder.

George Donovan confessed
on his deathbed.

A decade later?

Bucket Lane Murder.

Sounds familiar,
but the details are fuzzy.

Morgan Gillory is fuzzy
on the details?

It was in the news for months.
Were you living under a rock
in 2014?

Sorry. Sorry.

Ooh, whoops.

I would've killed
for a rock to live under.

It was murder in a mansion?
Or something about a sauna?

Melon and I were
junior detectives.

He liked George for it.

I had reservations.
George beat the case.

But he confesses now?

Now I need to know
the whole story.

Follow me.

Day after Thanksgiving 2014,

Heather Donovan's husband,
Barry Johnson,

was murdered in the family home.

The housekeeper found him
in the sauna,

slow-cooked like Texas barbecue.

The family assumed
that Barry fell asleep

during his nightly shvitz.

But the autopsy revealed
cause of death
to be a broken neck.

He was dead
before he went into the sauna.

Yeah, the theory was the killer
pushed Barry down the stairs,

breaking his neck,

then placed him in the sauna
to cover up the crime.

Hoping it'd be written off as
an intoxicated man passing out

and dehydrating in there.

Lenore, George's wife, said

she saw Barry heading
to the basement in his robe

shortly after midnight.

That's the last time
anyone saw him alive.

Everyone's in bed and claimed
not to have heard anything,

but a drop of Barry's blood was
found on one of George's shirts

stuffed in the laundry hamper.

This is why he ended up
in the defendant's chair.

I thought it was a weak case,
but the DA ran with it.

Ultimately,
there wasn't enough to convict

because of the coke dealer.

There's a coke dealer too?

Billy Ross.

He's dead now. He was pulled
over for running a stop sign

shortly after midnight in
his gold 442,

five blocks from the murder.

And Barry had cocaine
in his system.

The defense presented
this far-fetched theory

that Billy Ross
broke into the house,

killed Barry
after a drug deal gone wrong

when we never found any proof

that Billy Ross was ever
even at the house.

George got off, but Melon always
believed he was the killer.

Why didn't you?

Gut instinct.
It just didn't add up.

George was well-liked.

He never had
any history of violence.

He was a philanthropist.

He was a bigwig
at the chamber of commerce.

He spearheaded that whole
affordable housing initiative.

So he didn't seem
like a murderer.

That was part of it.

I also didn't buy
that a 70-something-year-old man

with a hip replacement could
carry Barry into the sauna.

Well, Barry was
a little guy though.

Still.

So what's your gut say now?

The aftermath of the crime
has been brutal on the Donovans.

They used to be
the most well-respected family

in Beverly Hills
for their ties to politics

and a charity for domestic
violence victims in their name.

And suddenly overnight,

half of America believes one
of them has to be a murderer.

Now George confesses
to the crime?

I think he did it
to clear his family.

He wanted them to be able
to lead normal lives.

Who do you think did it?

I don't know.

Thank you for joining me
on this trip down memory lane.

Yeah.

Sure you don't want me
to track down that scotch?

No. But there's something
you can do for me.

Every cop has that one case they
can't get out of their head,

and this one's mine.

I regret not following my gut
ten years ago.

Why didn't you?

I let Melon talk me out
of going deeper on my hunch.

I felt like
I had to toe the line,

be one of the boys
for the sake of my career.

I am embarrassed
I let that happen.

Mind seeing
if there's something we missed?

On it, boss.

Lieutenant,

you were right.

George Donovan did not push
his son-in-law down the stairs.

In fact, no one did.

First of all, Barry was not
killed on the basement stairs.

Barry was killed
in the common bathroom upstairs.

So what then?

The killer carried
Barry's dead body

all the way down to the sauna?

Not exactly.

Let me take you back
to the Donovan mansion

the night of the murder.

We find the killer walking down
the upstairs hallway.

He or she passes the bathroom

and hears Barry showering
inside.

Showering wasn't in the file.

Are... Are you gonna
interrupt the whole time?

- I just got going.
- My bad.

The killer finds Barry
vulnerable in the shower.

He or she looks around...

and spots a hair dryer
and thinks,

"You know what can pass as
a heart attack in an autopsy?"

An electrocution.

So that's that for Barry.

But... now
the electrical outlet's on fire.

So the killer freaks
out 'cause, you know, flames.

But mostly because now
there's evidence of a murder.

So, the wallpaper-covered
faceplate is scorched.

And that's not good, but it's
a problem for later because...

First, it's time
to move the body.

Now remember, the guy
only weighed about 150 pounds.

So...

down the laundry chute he goes.

- The laundry chute?
- Mm-hmm.

That's how he got down
to the basement?

It sure is.

It's also how he broke his neck.

And it's how Barry's blood
ended up on George's shirt.

And then what?

Then the killer rolls
Barry's body to the sauna.

He carefully props him up,

places an empty wine bottle
next to him...

and cooks him to perfection.

And that is
how Barry Johnson met his maker.

I get it.
You're still processing.

It's okay.
It's all very exciting.

Let me show you some evidence.

Every single inch of this house
was photographed.

Remember that scorched
wall plate I was talking about?

Right there.

Yeah,
but it's not scorched though.

But it's plain.

All the other outlets
are covered in wallpaper.

There, there and there.

That means the killer
switched out the wallpaper plate

with the plain one
to hide the scorch marks.

I guarantee you,
there's scorching
underneath that wall plate.

- There's just one problem.
- Ah, just one?

People don't get electrocuted
by hair dryers anymore.

- There are safety features now.
- That's true.

In 1990, the Consumer Product
Safety Commission

issued manufacturing
requirements for hair dryers,

including safeguards
against electrocution.

But look at their hair dryer.

This is a 1980s model
Air Zan 1200.

Okay, but Lenore saw Barry
heading toward the basement

at midnight.

By stairs, not by laundry chute.

Lenore also admitted
to drinking a bunch of wine.

So maybe she didn't see
what she thought she saw.

Or maybe she's covering
for the real killer.

Ten years ago, Pacheco insisted
we only dig deep

into the family's alibis
after midnight,

the time we thought
Barry was killed.

But if he was murdered
before midnight,

before anyone went to bed,

anyone of those family members
could be our killer.

Yeah.

We need to talk to 'em.

Daphne, Oz, hold down the fort
while we're gone.

Selena,
if the captain finds out

you're reopening a closed case
behind his back,

that's how Jon got exiled
to traffic.

Let me worry about that.

I spoke to Lenore Donovan.

Explained we had
a few loose ends to tie up

before we can officially
close the case.

She said the housekeeper
will let us inside

while the family's out
scattering George's ashes.

Nice.

First, we need to pick up
Ida Perp.

Who's Ida Perp?

Yes.

Hi. I'd like to speak
to your detectives

about the Bucket Lane Murder.

My name is Nedda Donovan,
and I've got a story to tell.

Oh. Hello.

I'm Lieutenant Soto.
This is Detective Karadec.

Hi. I'm Morgan,
I'm the consultant.

This is Ida Perp.

She's faking this,
so he'll carry her.

I believe
you're expecting us.

Yeah.
Can we see the bathroom, please?

The one upstairs
with the laundry chute?

- Thank you.
- Mm-hmm.

If your theory is correct,
we should find...

Scorch marks?

Then the killer did
switch the plate

to hide an electrical fire.

So where did
that plate come from?

Well, if I had to guess, I'd say
the room Barry was staying in.

Look for a scorched face plate

covered in the same wallpaper
as the bathroom.

Hmm.

Look at this. Security cameras
all over the house.

Why wouldn't the footage
show up in the case file?

Yeah, the family said
the footage was deleted.

Little help?

That's good.

That's our plate.

Yes.

Good work, Morgan.
Come on, Ida. It's showtime.

Ready!

Oh, hello.

Make mama proud, okay?

That'd break a neck.

She was right.

Barry was killed in the shower
and thrown down the chute.

Is Ida okay?

Guys, this is a public building.
We're allowed to film here.

You're standing in the way
of journalism.

We are standing in the way of
murder porn.

Let's just call it what it is.

Look, your crew can film
all they want,

but we're not speaking
on camera.

We're a legit production, guys.

- See?
- Ken Burns could walk in here,

set all of his Emmys
on the table,

and we're still not talking
on camera.

I don't know who Ken Burns is.

But what if I told you

I know for a fact,
George's confession is a sham?

I'll talk to Soto.

So why did you agree
to do the documentary?

Sixteen years in that family,

and I have nothing
to show for it

other than
a destroyed reputation.

The Donovan prenup is criminal.

I tried to do right by them,
but enough is enough.

This is my story too.

I have a right to tell it
and sell it as I please.

I won't let them
take away my moment.

Lieutenant says we already know
George's confession is a sham.

So how about you tell us

why you think George's
confession is bogus

out of the goodness
of your heart.

You'll still screw the Donovans
over if you prove to the police

that the case isn't as closed as
the family would like it to be.

You can help us bring
Barry's real killer to justice.

Fine. George called me up...

after he'd seen
that I'd signed on

to participate
in the documentary

a few weeks ago.

Begged me not to do it.

Said he wanted to spare
the family any more misery.

That was George. He hated
to see his people suffer.

He wouldn't have waited
ten years to confess

if he'd actually done it.

Okay.

If not George,
who do you think murdered Barry?

I don't know, but they would
all lie to protect each other.

You won't be able to break them.

"Sauna at the End
of the Stairs"?

Mmm, I'd watch it.

One of the people
in this family is a murderer.

- We have to figure out who--
- Hmm.

Welcome. To what do we owe
the pleasure?

Again, we're sorry
for your loss.

Why are you here?

I mean, we-we literally
just sprinkled

our dad's ashes
off of Point Dume.

I-I told them they could come.

Well, as I said on the phone,

we just have
a few follow-up questions

before we can officially
close the case.

Make sure the confession
wasn't coerced.

You think we had
a gun to his head?

No. No, we just have some I's
to dot and some T's to cross.

I'm sure your dad's confession
came as quite a shock.

I doubt Dad meant to kill Barry.

Was there any sense of relief?

I mean, the media hasn't exactly
been kind to you, guys.

So at least now
all the speculation will stop.

The speculation
that ruined our lives?

I mean, this whole thing
cost Clark a wife, me my career,

and Mom, you know,
her place in society.

Cody was being recruited
by MIT before the murder.

My nephew's a genius.

Yeah. And now that genius
washes dishes.

Heather had to move. Matty's
all over the murder blogs.

- Murder blogs?
- They call him
"Matty the Baddie."

Well, I, for one, think
that your divorce was

the only upside
of this whole thing.

Nedda's a piece of work.

Was there any friction between
Barry and George that night?

Well, there was one thing
by the pool before dinner.

You know, we were having some
lemonade by the pool with Dad

when, uh, Barry comes
out of the pool house,

all ring around the nosey.

He was coked up?

Yeah. And Dad just freaked out.

You know, he was yelling
at Barry for bringing drugs
into the house.

Especially around
his no-good addict son. Mmm.

That's not what he thought,
Matty. My brother's in recovery.

Did Barry and George's fight by
the pool escalate any further?

They put aside
their differences,

momentarily at least,
so we could have a nice dinner.

And was it nice?

Well, we tried.

It started
with another family photo
and then a toast.

- All right.
- To family,

looking after one another
in good times and bad.

And, of course,
Matty started drinking.

Is that a good idea, Son?

Come on,
Dad. I can handle one drink.

It wasn't long before Barry
started offending everyone.

I suppose you can let 'em
make their own mistakes.

- They know you'll bail them out.
- And Dad got upset.

Says Mr. Father of the Year.

Cody had enough
and went upstairs.

You know what? I'm not hungry.

- And Matty let it out...
- Please. Cody, stay.

...that Barry and Clark
lost a lot of money.

I don't know
if Dad can afford to send me
to rehab again, Barry.

Not after all that money
that he and Clark lost

investing in your friend's
failed company.

You invested our money in what?

How did George react when Matty
brought up the bad investment?

He really didn't
have time to react,

because of...

Heather's mishap.

- Oh, God.
- Oh, my God.
Bunny, are you hurt?

Sorry, new here.
Heather caught on fire?

We knew about that.

Melon didn't think
it was important enough

to even include
in the case report.

We put it out right away.
I was okay.

Just clumsy, as usual.

What happened after that?

Barry decided he'd had enough.
He headed upstairs.

And then we cleared the table
and set up the Monopoly board.

Monopoly comes out.

Cody returned.

- Look who decided to show up.
- What's up, bud?

- He loves that game.
- Welcome back, Cody.

- I knew you couldn't resist.
- But then,

- Barry puts his TV
on full blast.
- I'm the race car.

I hope you die!

- What the hell
is he watching up there?
- And Dad was not happy.

I'm going to kill that bastard.

George threatened
to murder Barry?

Why sound surprised?
We sent you his confession.

Where was Nedda
during all of this?

Probably checking
her social media.

- Where was I?
- You just told us
Heather caught on fire,

and then you needed
to check your Instagram.

Right. Yes.

That is why you do not wear
bell sleeves to dinner.

So we quickly tore off her wrap,

and that's
when we saw the bruises.

This is Karadec.
Please leave a message.

- Karadec isn't picking up.
- Okay. Well, call Soto, then.

All right.

What the hell is Nedda Donovan
doing here?

You're sure
that's what she said, Oz?

Barry abused Heather?

Yeah, okay.

What?

Melon saw her?

Okay, bye.

The Donovans lied to us.
Barry was beating Heather.

They learned this when
they stripped off Heather's wrap

and discovered
she was covered in bruises.

That's a strong motive
for murder for any of 'em.

I can see
why they kept it a secret.

And why that secret
would've ruined their charity.

Melon saw Nedda at the station.
Our time is running out.

Selena, maybe we should call
this off. You've gone rogue.

I don't wanna be answering
to Melon if you get reassigned.

I don't want that either.
So let's solve this case.

Was anyone planning
on telling us

about the moment
during Thanksgiving dinner

when you learned
Barry was beating Heather?

Nedda.

It was a family matter.

And some things need to stay
in the family.

In a murder investigation?

Can we please not talk
about this?

It'll be okay, Mom.

It was after Heather's sleeve
caught on fire.

We put out the fire,

and that's when we saw
what Barry was doing to her.

- We need to get this off you.
- No, Mom. I'm okay. I'm fine.

Honey.

- What happened?
- What the hell?

- You bastard.
- How dare you?

You think I did that?

Barry denied it
and stormed out.

I'm done here. I'm done.

Did anyone see Barry again
after that?

I did.

I was having a glass
of wine while cleaning up

when he came down the stairs
in his robe...

headed for the sauna.

How much did you have to drink?

I had some wine.
I can't remember how much.

Well, it's a good thing
Barry's already dead.

I'd like to murder him myself.

Assuming Morgan's theory
is correct,

everyone but the killer probably
thinks Barry was still alive

- when Lenore says she saw him.
- Well, let's divide 'em up.

Get everyone's account
of the hours
between dinner and midnight.

- Establish a time line.
- Yeah.

Okay.

So why don't you walk us through
what happened after dinner?

Heather couldn't sleep
in the same room as Barry.

George and Lenore
wouldn't have allowed it.

So I offered to go grab
her stuff from the room

while Lenore helped her
get into new clothes.

Barry was watching TV
when I went to his room.

She needs her stuff.

- He flipped and threw it at me.
- Take it, okay?

Oh, my...

- Take her crap.
Take her crap. Okay.
- You're such an asshole, Barry.

That was the last time
I ever saw him.

You understand why I have to ask
about the abuse?

Why didn't you go to the police?

I thought he'd change.

Plus, I was ashamed.

Is that why you never went
to the hospital?

I was a nurse
before Cody was born.

I could deal
with the injuries myself.

My aunt was a nurse.

She was
always throwing out her back,

all that heavy lifting
you have to do,

moving patients around.

They train nurses to do that,
don't they?

What are you trying to imply?

It's okay, honey.

Yes, that's part
of the training.

And by then, Cody had hotels
on Boardwalk and Park Place.

He was dominating us as usual.

And that's when Barry switched
from a war movie

to a... dirty movie.

Did someone order pizza?

Matty and Clark volunteered
to stop it.

Come on, Matty.
Let's handle this.

And I asked them to grab
the Christmas decorations
for me as well.

Did you hear the TV
come back on again

after your sons went upstairs?

No, don't believe so.

- How long were they gone?
- 30 minutes or so.

Little wuss locked himself in,

but we got Barry to turn the TV
off after a few choice words.

So you threatened him?

We banged on his door a bit.
That's all.

We didn't kill him,
if that's what you're asking.

I didn't even see him again.
Not alive at least.

After that, Matty and I headed
to the attic

for Mom's Christmas decorations.

How long were you upstairs?

Half hour, maybe.

Both of you?

I may have given Matty
a little grief

for drinking in front of Dad.

At some point, he disappeared
and left me with all the...

heavy boxes.

Matty left you alone
in the attic? For how long?

Fifteen minutes.

Maybe 20.

Matty and Clark were each alone
for enough time

to sneak off and murder Barry.

Mm-hmm.
One of them could be our guy.

Or they were lying
about being in the attic,

and they both murdered him
together.

So going back
to the attic.

Lenore knows the smell of fake
pine gives me a headache,

and yet she insists on lighting
those scented Christmas candles

every year for the ambience.

What does Lenore's candles
have to do with the murder?

If you'd let me finish.

So Lenore likes to light
her scented Christmas candles.

And I had to leave the house.
Get some fresh air.

And I saw Billy Ross
selling drugs to Matty.

So Ross did show up at the house
that night but not for Barry.

He came to see Matty.

Matty the Baddie.

A former drug addict who was
furious at his brother-in-law

and was getting coked up right
at the time of Barry's death.

Makes for a killer doc, huh?

All right. Thanks.

Daphne and Oz got some
interesting news from Nedda.

She says she saw Matty Donovan
meeting Billy Ross

in front of the house,
when he told us

he was in the attic.

- He went to meet
the coke dealer?
- Yep.

George's lawyers were right
about Ross coming to the house.

But there was
no drug-deal-gone-wrong.

If Ross came to see Matty,
he had no motive
for killing Barry.

Mmm. That probably explains

why Nedda didn't mention it
at trial.

One more thing.
Daphne also said she just saw

Melon and the captain
leaving the station.

If you have any ideas,
feel free to speak up.

Yes. I know. I don't.

Just give me a second.
I need to rewind a little bit.

There's just
so many moving pieces.

Okay. We know that everyone was
together at dinner. Around 8:00.

Cody leaves when George
and Barry start fighting.

- I'm not hungry.
- Please. Cody, stay.

Barry leaves when everybody
calls him out

- for beating Heather.
- I'm done here. I'm done.

Heather decides
she still wants to have
family game night,

because moms hold on
to tradition
like a life raft in a storm.

But first,
Heather, Lenore and Nedda
go upstairs around 9:00.

Heather and Lenore go
into Lenore's room to change.

Nedda goes to grab Heather's
stuff from Barry's room...

- Take her crap.
- You're such an asshole, Barry.

...where she sees him alive
for the last time.

Lenore and Heather go back
downstairs to start game night.

Cody comes downstairs
from his room. Monopoly begins.

Until Barry starts
blasting porn on his TV,

causing Matty and Clark to go
upstairs and bang on his door.

But then Barry turns the TV off,

so Matty and Clark instead
go up to the attic

to get Lenore's Christmas boxes.

That's when Matty leaves Clark
to go meet the coke dealer.

So Clark is alone in the attic.

Then both brothers reconvene
back downstairs

at the game board
around the same time.

Monopoly ends.

Everybody goes to bed,
except for Lenore,

who finishes cleaning up
in the tea room.

Because, again, moms being moms.

And that's when she sees Barry
go down to the basement.

But we know Barry
was killed upstairs,

and we know it wasn't Lenore,
Heather or Nedda

because Barry was alive
before Monopoly even began.

But then
the porn turned off, what...

Damn it.

Please forgive
the intrusion...

I hear Captain Pacheco.

No.

Whew.

Just...

We were hoping
to let you rest this day,

but I'm afraid
I'm going to have to...

Captain.

There you are.
Would you excuse us?

Did you think I wasn't gonna
find out about this?

You put
this entire case at risk.

And the department.

What in God's name
were you thinking?

And, Mrs. Donovan,

please, you have
my utmost apologies

for this intrusion
on your day of mourning.

And, Lieutenant?
This cleaning lady experiment
of yours...

And that's
when Barry switched

from a war movie
to a dirty movie.

- It's officially over.
- Captain, this experiment
has been--

- Lieutenant.
- Yeah.

I know who did it.

Captain Pacheco,
when you investigated

Barry's death ten years ago,
you focused on the events

that happened after midnight, correct?

We knew
the murder happened then.

Lenore saw Barry go
into the basement at midnight.

Right. So that would make
perfect sense, you know.

Unless Lenore was wrong.

- What?
- Are you saying my mother lied?

No. Absolutely not.

I'm asking what if Lenore
thought she saw Barry, right?

I mean, she admitted
to tipping back a few.

I know what I saw.

Barry passed me on his way
down to the basement.

Well, Barry's bathrobe
went down to the basement. Yes.

But Barry wasn't in it.

Because Barry was killed
before midnight upstairs.

Uh... So-so let me
get this straight.

You're saying the killer
murdered Barry somewhere else,

then dragged his body
from the second floor
to the basement

right past the entire family
playing Monopoly?

No. I'm saying the killer tossed
Barry's body

down the laundry chute,
breaking his neck
in the process.

- The laundry chute?
- What the hell?

What is going on?

No way a body fits down
that chute. There's no way.

Ida Perp did.

Ida Perp is not a living person.

And neither was Barry.

Because Cody electrocuted him
in the shower

before the family even began
playing Monopoly.

You knew what your dad was doing
to your mom. Kids always know.

You were just trying to protect
her any way you knew how.

- What are you saying?
- You need to leave,
all right?

- Coming here making these
accusations?
- Who do you think you are?

Please. Look, look.
I don't believe this
any more than you do.

He was 15. You really think
a teenager could pull that off?

Cody wasn't a regular teenager.
He was a genius.

A kid that MIT was recruiting
as a sophomore.

And this very smart young man
knew that his father

was beating his mother.

So picture Cody knowing
what he knows about his dad.

He heads upstairs, fed up.

Sometime later,
he hears Barry in the bathroom

and he gets an idea.

He realizes
he has an opportunity

to end this abuse
once and for all.

He tosses the hair dryer
into the shower, killing Barry.

Now Cody's a smart kid.

He knows electrocutions can be
written off as heart attacks.

But he has an unforeseen
technical difficulty.

The outlet catches on fire.

So he has to come up
with a plan B on the fly.

He sends Barry's body
down the laundry chute.

He cleans up any evidence
of a fire.

And he goes downstairs
and joins game night,

creating an alibi.

Then, at midnight,

when everyone else
but his grandmother is asleep,

Cody heads down to the
basement passing Lenore.

She sees the robe
and thinks that it's Barry.

In the basement,
Cody moves Barry's body

from the hamper into the sauna.

He wants to make it look
like it's an accident.

So he sets the wine bottle...

he cranks up the thermostat
on the sauna...

and he leaves the robe behind.

Cody had no idea that the fall
had broken his father's neck.

Or that Barry's blood got
onto his grandfather's shirt

in the hamper.

Who could blame you
for any of this?

You knew your dad was
hurting your mom.

You must've been terrified

one day he was gonna
take it too far.

This is ludicrous.
My son is not a murderer.

He was playing Monopoly
the whole night.

And Barry was still alive.
He was watching TV, remember?

And channels just don't change
on their own.

Channels don't.

But George
and Lenore's televisions

use radio frequency remotes.

Meaning...

Well, it depends what kind of
range you want for your remote.

Infrared remotes get
the job done for the most part

but require a direct line of
sight from the remote to the TV.

But if you wanna get
a little fancier,

class up the joint a bit,

a radio frequency remote offers

greater flexibility
and coverage.

Attention, shoppers.
Electronic...

Simply put,
you can control the sources

from any room in the house.

So, that is how Cody

made it sound like Barry was
still alive during Monopoly,

when he was
already dead in the hamper.

God. Is he watching porn
up there?

Turning up the volume
on the porn,
that was an accident.

He didn't want Matty and Clark
to go upstairs.

Again, on behalf
of the LAPD, I apologize--

She's right.

I did it.

I killed Dad, Mom.

- It was me.
- What?

Wait. Don't say another word.
We want a lawyer.

- No, no. Let me say this.
- No.

Let me say this. Come on.

Mom, this secret has been
eating me alive.

I should've told the truth
a long time ago, and I tried.

When Grandpa was dying,
I told him what I did.

I said I wanted to come forward,

but he asked me to give it
more thought.

A week later,
he makes that video confessing.

He was protecting me at
the cost of his own reputation.

Mom, I think
about what I did every day.

I can't sleep. I can't focus.
I'm spiraling.

I don't feel like I deserve
any success in my life.

Maybe after I serve my time,

I can look at myself
in the mirror again.

No, no, no. No, I am sorry.

This is not your fault.

This is not his fault.

It's my fault. Please, blame me.

Cody will be tried as a minor.

He'll likely serve
less than three years.

So, Captain.

What do you think of our
cleaning lady experiment now?

You did good work in there.

One thing, Selena.

Never go behind my back again.

Or you could say goodbye
to Major Crimes.

Morgan?

You continue to amaze me.

We're lucky
to have you on the team.

Back at you, Lieutenant.

You risked your career to put
the right person behind bars.

Every cop has that one case.
