I'm feeling lucky tonight.
3
00:00:36,478 --> 00:00:38,272
Changing $5,000.
4
00:00:46,530 --> 00:00:48,365
Now there's a man
with confidence.
5
00:00:48,740 --> 00:00:50,617
MAN: Yeah, I'd love
to join you, partner,
6
00:00:50,659 --> 00:00:52,244
but I have two ex-wives
counting on me.
7
00:00:52,327 --> 00:00:53,370
How about you?
8
00:00:53,454 --> 00:00:55,706
I think I'll stick with
my 3-iron off the tee.
9
00:00:55,789 --> 00:00:57,207
Straight and safe, huh?
10
00:00:57,291 --> 00:00:59,168

( Heavy accent ) Split them.
12
00:01:17,227 --> 00:01:19,271
- Where you from, kid?
- Moscow.
13
00:01:19,480 --> 00:01:22,107
But my dad's business
brings me to L.A. a lot.
14
00:01:22,316 --> 00:01:24,443
Daddy's business
must be good, huh?
15
00:01:28,447 --> 00:01:31,158
( chuckles ):
You are lucky, son.
16
00:01:35,996 --> 00:01:37,414
Dealer busts.
17
00:01:38,415 --> 00:01:39,708
( sighs )
18
00:01:42,294 --> 00:01:44,171
Looks like everybody's
pretty lucky here tonight.
19
00:01:44,254 --> 00:01:45,756
Sit in, find out for yourself.
20
00:01:45,839 --> 00:01:47,508
I lost too much already.
21
00:01:47,716 --> 00:01:49,134
Maybe next time.
22
00:01:53,430 --> 00:01:54,515
You leaving?
23
00:01:54,598 --> 00:01:56,642
Just need a little fresh air.
24
00:01:56,725 --> 00:01:58,852
In L.A.? Good luck.
25
00:02:06,235 --> 00:02:07,194
I need my car.
26
00:02:07,277 --> 00:02:08,654
Sorry, man, we're shorthanded.
27
00:02:08,737 --> 00:02:10,155
It's going to be a wait.
28
00:02:12,407 --> 00:02:14,785
If you want to get it yourself,
I can tell you where to go.
29
00:02:15,744 --> 00:02:16,995
( alarm beeps )
30
00:02:20,165 --> 00:02:21,667
( gun cocks )
31
00:02:23,418 --> 00:02:24,878
You want my money?
32
00:02:26,672 --> 00:02:28,090
( gunshot )
33
00:02:29,216 --> 00:02:31,468
Task force got the call
about an hour ago.
34
00:02:31,593 --> 00:02:33,720
Gunshot was reported
at 10:10 p.m.
35
00:02:33,887 --> 00:02:35,013
Any witnesses?
36
00:02:35,138 --> 00:02:36,348
Not so far.
37
00:02:36,473 --> 00:02:39,518
That makes four robberies at
this location in the past six months.
38
00:02:39,685 --> 00:02:41,478
First homicide, though.
39
00:02:41,853 --> 00:02:45,232
Manager says they installed
a camera after the last robbery.
40
00:02:45,524 --> 00:02:47,401
Might get a look off that.
41
00:02:48,068 --> 00:02:49,987
Also found this in the truck.
42
00:02:55,742 --> 00:02:57,828
That's a lot of notebooks.
43
00:03:01,039 --> 00:03:03,584
It's all numbers, equations.
44
00:03:04,251 --> 00:03:06,086
Lucky for us, we know a guy.
45
00:03:06,211 --> 00:03:08,005
We do know a guy.
46
00:03:08,797 --> 00:03:10,257
Wallet was tossed.
47
00:03:10,382 --> 00:03:12,509
Cash and credit cards
are missing.
48
00:03:15,721 --> 00:03:17,639
DON:
Yuri Chernov.
49
00:03:18,348 --> 00:03:19,516
Born '86.
50
00:03:19,641 --> 00:03:20,767
19.
51
00:03:20,892 --> 00:03:22,436
That's kind of young
for a high roller.
52
00:03:22,561 --> 00:03:24,187
DON:
Yeah, Huntington Tech undergrad.
53
00:03:24,313 --> 00:03:26,690
Picked the wrong night
to take a study break.
54
00:03:27,065 --> 00:03:28,233
Yep.
55
00:03:33,989 --> 00:03:36,158
CHARLIE:
We all use math every day,
56
00:03:36,283 --> 00:03:37,909
to predict weather,
57
00:03:38,160 --> 00:03:39,620
to tell time,
58
00:03:41,163 --> 00:03:42,664
to handle money.
59
00:03:44,291 --> 00:03:47,544
Math is more than
formulas and equations.
60
00:03:48,503 --> 00:03:49,838
It's logic...
61
00:03:51,590 --> 00:03:53,342
it's rationality.
62
00:03:53,967 --> 00:03:58,221
It's using your mind to solve
the biggest mysteries we know.
63
00:04:04,227 --> 00:04:05,479
Well, I've heard about this,
64
00:04:05,604 --> 00:04:07,064
but I've never actually
seen it demonstrated.
65
00:04:07,230 --> 00:04:08,315
Are you sure this is gonna work?
66
00:04:08,482 --> 00:04:09,566
Absolutely.
67
00:04:09,691 --> 00:04:11,026
DON: Hey, Charlie,
I've been looking for you.
68
00:04:11,193 --> 00:04:13,362
Hey, hey, hey.
Come over here, man.
69
00:04:13,528 --> 00:04:16,323
So this is for a lecture I'm
preparing -- "Math and Molecules:
70
00:04:16,448 --> 00:04:18,408
An Introduction
to Fluid Dynamics."
71
00:04:18,659 --> 00:04:21,036
It looks like mints
and soda to me.
72
00:04:21,161 --> 00:04:23,372
Well, two words:
surface tension.
73
00:04:23,538 --> 00:04:27,376
The stuff that gives soda its
fizz is a gas, carbon dioxide.
74
00:04:27,542 --> 00:04:30,212
What holds the gas inside
the liquid is surface tension.
75
00:04:30,337 --> 00:04:33,382
And we all know the importance
of surface tension in fluid dynamics.
76
00:04:33,548 --> 00:04:34,633
We do?
77
00:04:34,750 --> 00:04:36,593
Bubbles of gas in the soda
78
00:04:36,718 --> 00:04:39,137
experience viscous drag force
from the surrounding liquids.
79
00:04:39,304 --> 00:04:41,848
The mints hyper-excite
the thermodynamic equilibrium
80
00:04:42,015 --> 00:04:43,975
of the supersaturated CO2,
81
00:04:44,101 --> 00:04:45,977
weakening the surface tension,
82
00:04:46,144 --> 00:04:49,940
causing the gases to escape
rapidly, very rapidly.
83
00:04:50,941 --> 00:04:52,442
You guys actually
get paid for this?
84
00:04:52,567 --> 00:04:54,486
Despite your brother's
adolescent grin,
85
00:04:54,611 --> 00:04:56,697
this is actually very
sophisticated math here.
86
00:04:56,822 --> 00:04:58,490
I don't know about you guys,
but I'm ready to do this.
87
00:04:58,657 --> 00:04:59,991
- Are you guys ready?
- LARRY: Step back.
88
00:05:00,158 --> 00:05:01,868
Sure you don't need
a permit or something for this?
89
00:05:01,993 --> 00:05:03,203
CHARLIE:
Okay.
90
00:05:07,958 --> 00:05:09,584
( laughs )
Yeah!
91
00:05:09,751 --> 00:05:10,752
That's awesome.
92
00:05:10,877 --> 00:05:12,671
Yeah, that was pretty cool.
93
00:05:13,088 --> 00:05:15,090
So who cleans all this up now?
94
00:05:15,215 --> 00:05:18,301
I am... gonna clean it,
probably... later.
95
00:05:18,468 --> 00:05:20,387
Uh, I'm assuming
you're not here for the show.
96
00:05:20,554 --> 00:05:21,888
Um, yeah.
97
00:05:22,013 --> 00:05:23,306
This is Yuri Chernov,
98
00:05:23,432 --> 00:05:25,767
who was actually a math student
at Huntington Tech.
99
00:05:25,892 --> 00:05:28,145
They've got a brilliant
undergrad program there.
100
00:05:28,270 --> 00:05:31,982
Well, he was murdered last night
and we found this in his car.
101
00:05:33,233 --> 00:05:35,610
Thought maybe you could
figure out what it means.
102
00:05:36,987 --> 00:05:38,864
Those are probability
calculations.
103
00:05:38,989 --> 00:05:41,533
If I could, these equations,
104
00:05:41,658 --> 00:05:43,618
they just seem a little
familiar to me.
105
00:05:44,244 --> 00:05:45,912
Have you worked
with these equations?
106
00:05:46,413 --> 00:05:47,372
I don't know.
107
00:05:47,497 --> 00:05:49,624
If I could just examine them
more closely.
108
00:05:50,709 --> 00:05:53,754
DON: All right, let me just make
a copy in your office.
109
00:05:55,422 --> 00:05:56,798
- Hey, Larry?
- Oh, uh...
110
00:05:56,923 --> 00:05:57,924
I'll bring it right back.
111
00:05:58,091 --> 00:05:59,634
I'm just gonna
make a copy, all right?
112
00:06:04,097 --> 00:06:06,516
Yuri's parents
are flying in today.
113
00:06:07,434 --> 00:06:09,644
I don't know
what I'm going to tell them.
114
00:06:09,978 --> 00:06:11,563
Well, I can
talk to them for you,
115
00:06:11,730 --> 00:06:13,440
if that would
make things easier.
116
00:06:13,607 --> 00:06:17,110
No, I-I should be
the one to tell them.
117
00:06:17,402 --> 00:06:19,112
They always liked me.
118
00:06:19,696 --> 00:06:20,655
Really?
119
00:06:20,822 --> 00:06:23,325
How long did you two date for?
120
00:06:24,868 --> 00:06:26,453
About a year.
121
00:06:26,995 --> 00:06:29,039
We broke up a couple
of months ago.
122
00:06:29,790 --> 00:06:31,416
May I ask why?
123
00:06:32,834 --> 00:06:34,503
The gambling.
124
00:06:36,087 --> 00:06:39,299
At first, it was just
sort of a weekend thing for fun.
125
00:06:40,050 --> 00:06:42,093
Then it got to be that's
all he would talk about,
126
00:06:42,260 --> 00:06:43,303
all he'd do.
127
00:06:43,428 --> 00:06:45,472
He'd play all day, all weekend.
128
00:06:47,390 --> 00:06:49,434
And did he start
getting into debt?
129
00:06:49,893 --> 00:06:51,686
It was the opposite.
130
00:06:52,103 --> 00:06:53,730
He just kept winning.
131
00:06:54,022 --> 00:06:55,774
And the more he won,
132
00:06:57,192 --> 00:06:59,736
Yuri got into this whole
player vibe --
133
00:06:59,861 --> 00:07:02,781
dressing differently,
acting differently.
134
00:07:03,740 --> 00:07:05,784
And that's why
you guys broke up?
135
00:07:07,035 --> 00:07:10,288
Crazy thing is,
a couple of days ago,
136
00:07:10,455 --> 00:07:12,499
I thought we might
get back together.
137
00:07:13,625 --> 00:07:14,960
He called and apologized.
138
00:07:15,126 --> 00:07:16,628
Said he was going to quit.
139
00:07:18,463 --> 00:07:20,257
Did he tell you why?
140
00:07:22,008 --> 00:07:24,135
He said he made a mistake...
141
00:07:25,053 --> 00:07:26,596
a big one,
142
00:07:27,347 --> 00:07:30,559
but that things
were going to be okay now.
143
00:07:36,606 --> 00:07:38,567
Excuse me, do you mind stopping
just for a second?
144
00:07:38,692 --> 00:07:39,734
Thanks.
145
00:07:39,860 --> 00:07:44,114
So Yuri Chernov is shot at close
range with a nine millimeter?
146
00:07:44,322 --> 00:07:46,783
Right, nine mil, I mean,
there should be some casings.
147
00:07:46,950 --> 00:07:48,368
Yeah, none were found.
148
00:07:48,493 --> 00:07:51,705
You know, the witness from
the last robbery at the casino
149
00:07:51,830 --> 00:07:53,665
described a .38 caliber.
150
00:07:53,790 --> 00:07:54,666
Right.
151
00:07:54,791 --> 00:07:56,293
The whole thing feels like
a different guy to me,
152
00:07:56,418 --> 00:07:57,627
so different gun.
153
00:07:57,752 --> 00:07:59,129
Yeah.
154
00:08:00,088 --> 00:08:01,131
What's up, boys?
155
00:08:01,256 --> 00:08:02,591
What's going on?
156
00:08:02,757 --> 00:08:03,717
Check this out.
157
00:08:03,842 --> 00:08:05,760
We found these
in Yuri Chernov's dorm room.
158
00:08:05,886 --> 00:08:08,805
Ah, driver's licenses, fake IDs.
159
00:08:08,972 --> 00:08:10,891
DAVID: He had different
wardrobes in his closet,
160
00:08:11,057 --> 00:08:12,225
hair dyes in his bathroom.
161
00:08:12,350 --> 00:08:13,643
Yeah, look at this.
162
00:08:14,185 --> 00:08:16,271
He's got a different look
in each one of these.
163
00:08:16,938 --> 00:08:18,106
COLBY:
Checked his transcripts,
164
00:08:18,231 --> 00:08:20,275
straight A student,
total math geek.
165
00:08:20,609 --> 00:08:22,527
Well, none of this
fits that profile, right?
166
00:08:22,694 --> 00:08:25,405
No, but the ex told me that
he was playing the player role,
167
00:08:25,572 --> 00:08:26,907
and that he wanted out of it.
168
00:08:27,032 --> 00:08:28,742
Did we get anything
from these security cameras?
169
00:08:28,909 --> 00:08:30,535
Nothing. They're blind spots.
170
00:08:30,702 --> 00:08:31,786
Should we check inside?
171
00:08:31,912 --> 00:08:33,246
Club's eye in the sky, right?
172
00:08:33,350 --> 00:08:35,769
Yeah, maybe we can find
someone shadowing the kid.
173
00:08:38,585 --> 00:08:40,253
Something wrong, Charlie?
174
00:08:40,420 --> 00:08:44,174
I've been thinking about this
lecture I gave on applied probability.
175
00:08:44,341 --> 00:08:46,426
What, the famous casino night?
176
00:08:46,551 --> 00:08:49,554
Oh, yes, "Applying Probability
to Games of Chance."
177
00:08:49,679 --> 00:08:51,222
An Eppes classic.
178
00:08:51,348 --> 00:08:53,308
Turning the class
into a mini-casino
179
00:08:53,433 --> 00:08:57,562
and applying probability theory
to roulette, poker, blackjack.
180
00:08:57,729 --> 00:08:58,939
Gets kids hooked.
181
00:08:59,105 --> 00:09:01,024
I gave that lecture
as my guest lecture
182
00:09:01,149 --> 00:09:03,109
at Huntington Tech last year.
183
00:09:03,234 --> 00:09:05,737
Wait, you're not seriously
proposing a causal connection
184
00:09:05,904 --> 00:09:08,365
between this student's death
and your lecture?
185
00:09:09,074 --> 00:09:10,784
Students gamble, Charlie.
186
00:09:10,909 --> 00:09:12,160
Remember those MIT students?
187
00:09:12,285 --> 00:09:13,828
They took the casinos
for millions.
188
00:09:13,954 --> 00:09:16,539
How about the book that just
came out on blackjack strategy?
189
00:09:16,665 --> 00:09:17,958
What was it, "Busting Vegas?"
190
00:09:18,083 --> 00:09:20,418
Okay, maybe this student
read that book.
191
00:09:23,630 --> 00:09:25,382
Look, if anything,
192
00:09:26,091 --> 00:09:29,052
I think I'm the one
to proffer a mea culpa here.
193
00:09:29,195 --> 00:09:31,989
The moment Don showed me
these equations,
194
00:09:32,097 --> 00:09:34,683
- I recognized them immediately.
- What?
195
00:09:34,808 --> 00:09:37,978
These are calculations
for card counting,
196
00:09:38,103 --> 00:09:40,188
blackjack, to be precise.
197
00:09:40,397 --> 00:09:41,982
You're a blackjack stud?
198
00:09:42,148 --> 00:09:44,526
Was a blackjack stud, okay?
199
00:09:44,651 --> 00:09:47,654
And in the unfinished biography
of my life,
200
00:09:47,821 --> 00:09:50,573
that is very much
a closed chapter.
201
00:09:50,824 --> 00:09:52,367
Outside of bulk calculations,
202
00:09:52,492 --> 00:09:54,536
what's involved
in card counting?
203
00:09:54,869 --> 00:09:57,288
You said
you attended my lecture.
204
00:09:57,580 --> 00:09:59,082
I had to duck out
after roulette.
205
00:09:59,207 --> 00:10:01,001
I was prepping
for my orals, sorry.
206
00:10:01,126 --> 00:10:02,961
Yeah, yeah, so much
for an Eppes classic.
207
00:10:03,086 --> 00:10:05,547
Well, blackjack
is all about math.
208
00:10:05,672 --> 00:10:08,091
The point is to hit 21
without going over.
209
00:10:08,633 --> 00:10:10,802
The game is ruled
by conditional probabilities.
210
00:10:10,927 --> 00:10:13,263
What you see affects
what you're going to see.
211
00:10:13,430 --> 00:10:16,224
If an ace is dealt, then there's
one less ace in the remaining cards.
212
00:10:16,349 --> 00:10:18,393
And knowing how the cards
are likely to be dealt
213
00:10:18,518 --> 00:10:20,103
works to the card
counter's advantage,
214
00:10:20,270 --> 00:10:23,356
because players can ask
for a card whenever they want.
215
00:10:23,481 --> 00:10:27,235
But a dealer must take a card
when the total is below 17
216
00:10:27,402 --> 00:10:30,864
and can't take a card when
the total is between 17 and 21.
217
00:10:31,031 --> 00:10:33,283
So lower value cards
favor the dealer,
218
00:10:33,408 --> 00:10:35,910
because there's less likely
chance that he'll bust.
219
00:10:36,077 --> 00:10:37,495
WOMAN:
21.
220
00:10:38,371 --> 00:10:40,373
The opposite is
true for picture cards.
221
00:10:40,498 --> 00:10:41,666
Each of them are worth ten.
222
00:10:41,791 --> 00:10:42,959
They favor the player,
223
00:10:43,084 --> 00:10:44,794
because the more of them
that are left in the deck,
224
00:10:44,961 --> 00:10:47,547
the more chances
for the dealer to bust.
225
00:10:47,672 --> 00:10:49,132
WOMAN: 24, dealer busts.
226
00:10:49,257 --> 00:10:51,259
Now keeping exact track
isn't easy,
227
00:10:51,384 --> 00:10:53,845
but card counters use
certain techniques, like, uh...
228
00:10:54,012 --> 00:10:55,346
Like assigning general values.
229
00:10:55,472 --> 00:10:58,308
Uh, plus one for cards
two through six, minus one
230
00:10:58,433 --> 00:11:00,643
for picture cards, aces, tens,
231
00:11:00,769 --> 00:11:02,479
zeros for seven, eight, nine.
232
00:11:02,604 --> 00:11:03,938
Okay.
233
00:11:04,230 --> 00:11:06,024
Larry. Uh...
234
00:11:07,025 --> 00:11:09,360
Well, I'm sure you'll
correct me if I'm wrong,
235
00:11:09,611 --> 00:11:11,905
but doesn't that allow the
card counter to keep a tally?
236
00:11:12,030 --> 00:11:14,324
Yeah, yeah, yeah. High number
count favors a player,
237
00:11:14,449 --> 00:11:15,658
they make their bets
accordingly.
238
00:11:15,784 --> 00:11:17,118
Doesn't that attract attention?
239
00:11:17,243 --> 00:11:18,495
Yeah, of course it does.
240
00:11:18,620 --> 00:11:21,164
Sometimes
with grave consequences.
241
00:11:23,166 --> 00:11:24,501
You got caught.
242
00:11:27,087 --> 00:11:29,339
"Eyes In The Sky" has
Yuri Chernov gambling
243
00:11:29,464 --> 00:11:31,925
for seven hours that day,
starting at 3:00.
244
00:11:32,050 --> 00:11:33,259
He made 20 grand.
245
00:11:33,384 --> 00:11:35,303
All right, so high roller,
a lot of cash,
246
00:11:35,428 --> 00:11:36,721
same as the other robberies...
247
00:11:36,846 --> 00:11:39,307
MEGAN: Except none of the other
robberies escalated to violence.
248
00:11:39,432 --> 00:11:41,309
- That's what I was going to say.
- Let alone homicide.
249
00:11:41,434 --> 00:11:44,521
And I don't see Chernov
challenging a guy with a gun.
250
00:11:44,646 --> 00:11:46,064
Well, so, then
we're talking murder.
251
00:11:46,189 --> 00:11:48,483
MEGAN: Yeah, and then you throw
in the fake IDs and the disguises,
252
00:11:48,608 --> 00:11:50,800
and I just think there's something
more here than a robbery gone wrong.
253
00:11:50,865 --> 00:11:52,220
I see what you're saying,
and I agree.
254
00:11:52,272 --> 00:11:53,354
- Hi, guys.
- Hey.
255
00:11:53,439 --> 00:11:54,424
Hi.
256
00:11:54,502 --> 00:11:56,825
CHARLIE: Larry has something
he'd like to say to you all.
257
00:11:56,950 --> 00:11:59,786
Yeah. Um, Don,
I owe you an apology.
258
00:11:59,911 --> 00:12:02,539
I withheld, uh, my insights
259
00:12:02,664 --> 00:12:05,208
due to personal discomfort
with, uh...
260
00:12:05,875 --> 00:12:07,293
past non-scientific exploits.
261
00:12:07,418 --> 00:12:09,129
Whoa, whoa, whoa. What...
What are you talking about?
262
00:12:09,295 --> 00:12:11,756
The notebooks that you found
in Yuri Chernov's car --
263
00:12:11,881 --> 00:12:14,884
they're filled
with card-counting equations.
264
00:12:15,051 --> 00:12:16,469
CHARLIE:
Larry thinks that Yuri
265
00:12:16,636 --> 00:12:18,680
was card counting
at blackjack at the club.
266
00:12:18,805 --> 00:12:20,807
Yeah? How do you know that?
267
00:12:22,058 --> 00:12:24,310
MEGAN: Are you saying that
you were a card counter, Larry?
268
00:12:24,477 --> 00:12:27,313
The salient point here
is that casinos and clubs,
269
00:12:27,438 --> 00:12:28,523
even other players --
270
00:12:28,648 --> 00:12:31,776
they regard card counting
as cheating, and
271
00:12:31,901 --> 00:12:35,155
this practice has led to certain
acts of violence on occasion.
272
00:12:35,238 --> 00:12:36,656
COLBY: The only thing is,
Professor --
273
00:12:36,781 --> 00:12:38,116
and I don't mean
to dis your theory --
274
00:12:38,199 --> 00:12:39,868
but we've been looking at
this tape, and this kid --
275
00:12:39,993 --> 00:12:42,412
he's been drinking and throwing
money around haphazardly.
276
00:12:42,579 --> 00:12:44,247
I mean, it doesn't really look
like a system.
277
00:12:44,414 --> 00:12:45,874
It just looks kind of
like dumb luck.
278
00:12:45,999 --> 00:12:48,751
And the sum total
of said dumb luck?
279
00:12:49,043 --> 00:12:50,170
20 grand.
280
00:12:50,295 --> 00:12:52,964
To beat the house, there's more
than one way to skin a cat.
281
00:12:53,131 --> 00:12:55,008
Can-Can we somehow
just roll back to the point
282
00:12:55,133 --> 00:12:57,218
where Yuri Chernov
first begins to play?
283
00:12:57,719 --> 00:13:02,765
Okay, now, the card counter faces
one major obstacle to success...
284
00:13:02,932 --> 00:13:04,350
Transparent betting patterns.
285
00:13:04,475 --> 00:13:06,895
In order to make money,
a card counter has to raise
286
00:13:07,061 --> 00:13:09,272
or lower his bets based
on-on the count.
287
00:13:09,397 --> 00:13:11,107
That's right, and that's
where the team comes in.
288
00:13:11,232 --> 00:13:13,651
A team uses a spotter to count.
289
00:13:13,818 --> 00:13:15,486
Now the spotter will bet small.
290
00:13:15,612 --> 00:13:16,821
He stays inconspicuous.
291
00:13:16,946 --> 00:13:18,990
But that spotter
will signal the big player
292
00:13:19,115 --> 00:13:20,450
when the count is high.
293
00:13:20,617 --> 00:13:22,702
There you go, right there,
that's him.
294
00:13:22,994 --> 00:13:24,829
MEGAN: Okay, so you're saying
the guy in the purple,
295
00:13:24,954 --> 00:13:27,165
the preppy guy, is our spotter?
296
00:13:27,457 --> 00:13:29,250
Well, I mean,
unless he just has an itchy ear.
297
00:13:29,417 --> 00:13:30,543
DAVID:
Wait a minute.
298
00:13:30,710 --> 00:13:33,630
That guy that just walked in,
in the yellow and green --
299
00:13:34,297 --> 00:13:35,798
we've seen him before, right?
300
00:13:35,924 --> 00:13:37,884
Yeah, actually,
he was playing earlier,
301
00:13:38,009 --> 00:13:40,428
and he was throwing money
around the same way Chernov was.
302
00:13:40,595 --> 00:13:45,141
Was this guy playing with our
spotter, the preppy guy?
303
00:13:45,391 --> 00:13:46,517
DAVID:
Yeah.
304
00:13:46,643 --> 00:13:47,894
They were at the same table.
305
00:13:48,061 --> 00:13:49,229
Well, there you go.
306
00:13:49,854 --> 00:13:51,814
LARRY: And then
there were three.
307
00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:02,200
So, we're looking at a team
of card counters...
308
00:14:03,117 --> 00:14:05,078
Yeah, well, look, if that's
who got Chernov killed,
309
00:14:05,203 --> 00:14:07,372
we better find those partners,
'cause they're next.
310
00:14:07,497 --> 00:14:09,165
DAVID: All the kids
are in disguises.
311
00:14:09,290 --> 00:14:10,875
It might take some time
to find them.
312
00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:13,878
If Chernov was a student,
maybe the other two are, also.
313
00:14:14,420 --> 00:14:15,588
You know where to go.
314
00:14:15,755 --> 00:14:16,798
Huntington Tech.
315
00:14:16,923 --> 00:14:18,174
All right, see you later.
316
00:14:18,383 --> 00:14:20,718
Larry said these card rings
often have a backer
317
00:14:20,843 --> 00:14:22,679
who puts up money
at the beginning,
318
00:14:22,804 --> 00:14:24,722
and then takes a percentage
of the split.
319
00:14:24,847 --> 00:14:26,808
Maybe the guy got tired
of the split.
320
00:14:26,933 --> 00:14:28,309
All right,
so the backer's a suspect,
321
00:14:28,476 --> 00:14:30,561
but I don't want to rule out
that club yet, either, you know?
322
00:14:34,399 --> 00:14:36,025
CHARLIE:
So, you had a gambling problem.
323
00:14:36,192 --> 00:14:39,028
It only makes you that much
more colorful, you know, Larry?
324
00:14:39,153 --> 00:14:40,905
Just-Just so you realize,
325
00:14:41,030 --> 00:14:42,865
you know,
this wasn't some hobby.
326
00:14:42,991 --> 00:14:44,158
This was a calling.
327
00:14:44,284 --> 00:14:47,036
This was our way of just
demonstrating to the world
328
00:14:47,161 --> 00:14:48,788
the power of mathematics.
329
00:14:48,955 --> 00:14:50,832
So winning money had nothing
to do with it?
330
00:14:50,957 --> 00:14:52,959
Not at all. No.
331
00:14:53,376 --> 00:14:54,210
Not...
332
00:14:54,335 --> 00:14:56,587
Not initially,
but listen, remember
333
00:14:56,713 --> 00:14:58,965
that a mathematician
named Ed Thorpe
334
00:14:59,090 --> 00:15:01,384
had already created a
sensation back in the '60s
335
00:15:01,509 --> 00:15:03,594
when he wrote this book
called "Beat the Dealer."
336
00:15:03,761 --> 00:15:05,263
Now, in response to that book,
337
00:15:05,430 --> 00:15:08,516
casinos introduced
the card shoe.
338
00:15:08,683 --> 00:15:10,852
Actually, they were called
"perfesser stoppers."
339
00:15:10,977 --> 00:15:13,313
And a few mathematicians
like myself,
340
00:15:13,438 --> 00:15:14,981
I mean, we saw it
as a challenge.
341
00:15:15,106 --> 00:15:16,524
David versus Goliath,
342
00:15:16,649 --> 00:15:18,526
uh, wits and nerves
versus cameras
343
00:15:18,651 --> 00:15:20,236
and high tech thuggery.
344
00:15:20,403 --> 00:15:22,071
What do you mean "thuggery"?
345
00:15:22,196 --> 00:15:23,781
Oh, listen to this.
346
00:15:23,948 --> 00:15:26,909
I was playing at a private
card club in Atlantic City.
347
00:15:27,035 --> 00:15:28,494
I was up $20,000.
348
00:15:28,619 --> 00:15:29,787
$20,000?
349
00:15:29,954 --> 00:15:30,997
Yeah, yeah.
350
00:15:31,164 --> 00:15:32,957
And the manager
and two pit bosses --
351
00:15:33,124 --> 00:15:34,667
they took me into the back room
352
00:15:34,792 --> 00:15:37,545
where they were cracking nuts
with pliers,
353
00:15:37,712 --> 00:15:39,464
and they told me
that mine were next.
354
00:15:40,655 --> 00:15:42,335
But they didn't...
I mean, you're still...
355
00:15:42,425 --> 00:15:44,385
No, I remain whole,
but I had friends
356
00:15:44,552 --> 00:15:47,347
whose fingers were broken,
who had kneecaps reconfigured.
357
00:15:47,472 --> 00:15:49,140
I mean, they said
we were cheaters.
358
00:15:49,265 --> 00:15:51,434
No, we were playing smart.
359
00:15:52,018 --> 00:15:53,519
Smarter than these kids today.
360
00:15:53,644 --> 00:15:55,938
We weren't losing our lives.
361
00:15:58,316 --> 00:15:59,609
( computer beeping )
362
00:15:59,726 --> 00:16:01,561
COLBY:
You got face recognition?
363
00:16:01,736 --> 00:16:02,987
Oh, yeah.
364
00:16:03,112 --> 00:16:06,991
Our high rollers versus the
Huntington Tech online face book.
365
00:16:09,243 --> 00:16:13,122
I'm still trying to get used to the
idea of Larry Fleinhardt, the player.
366
00:16:13,998 --> 00:16:16,209
COLBY: They say Einstein
was a chick magnet, right?
367
00:16:16,334 --> 00:16:17,543
Yeah.
368
00:16:17,835 --> 00:16:19,462
All right, that's our spotter
right there.
369
00:16:19,837 --> 00:16:21,923
Jason Brewer, 19.
370
00:16:22,048 --> 00:16:23,716
Second year math major.
371
00:16:23,841 --> 00:16:26,010
Local boy, West L.A.
372
00:16:26,886 --> 00:16:30,431
And our rich South American,
Ignacio Nadal.
373
00:16:30,556 --> 00:16:32,517
I wonder
if these two kids have any idea
374
00:16:32,642 --> 00:16:34,268
how much trouble they're in.
375
00:16:35,436 --> 00:16:37,939
I've given you statements,
handed over tapes.
376
00:16:38,064 --> 00:16:39,065
We want to help.
377
00:16:39,232 --> 00:16:40,775
These robberies
aren't good for business.
378
00:16:40,942 --> 00:16:43,569
Actually, we're not sure
that the shooting was a robbery.
379
00:16:43,736 --> 00:16:47,573
There are indications that the victim
is part of a card-counting scheme.
380
00:16:47,949 --> 00:16:50,410
I can't really say
you look surprised.
381
00:16:51,244 --> 00:16:53,663
Surprised people cheat? No.
382
00:16:53,830 --> 00:16:55,665
What happens
when they get caught?
383
00:16:55,832 --> 00:16:57,417
We walk them out the door.
384
00:16:57,667 --> 00:16:58,960
That's it?
385
00:16:59,210 --> 00:17:00,753
You think we shoot 'em?
386
00:17:01,212 --> 00:17:04,090
Maybe one of your employees
got a little overzealous?
387
00:17:04,507 --> 00:17:05,629
Guy wins five grand,
388
00:17:05,723 --> 00:17:07,552
I'm not risking 20 to
life going after him.
389
00:17:07,718 --> 00:17:09,637
That's just Economics 101.
390
00:17:10,430 --> 00:17:13,558
Did you know there was a
card-counting ring working your club?
391
00:17:15,143 --> 00:17:17,145
If I knew,
they wouldn't be here.
392
00:17:17,687 --> 00:17:19,397
I still think I'm going
to need to see a list
393
00:17:19,522 --> 00:17:21,441
of employees
over the past six months,
394
00:17:21,607 --> 00:17:23,985
particularly the ones
working security.
395
00:17:24,444 --> 00:17:27,071
'Cause that's just
Law Enforcement 101.
396
00:17:28,865 --> 00:17:31,117
DAVID: When was the last time
you saw your son, Mrs. Brewer?
397
00:17:31,234 --> 00:17:32,444
About a week ago.
398
00:17:32,577 --> 00:17:34,787
My husband and I have
been out of town. Paris.
399
00:17:34,954 --> 00:17:36,497
Have you spoken to him since
you've been back?
400
00:17:36,664 --> 00:17:39,000
We got in late last night,
and when we got up this morning,
401
00:17:39,125 --> 00:17:40,877
it looked like
Jason was already gone.
402
00:17:41,002 --> 00:17:42,587
Should I call my husband
at work?
403
00:17:42,712 --> 00:17:44,672
I mean, is my son Jason
in trouble?
404
00:17:44,797 --> 00:17:45,840
We hope not, ma'am.
405
00:17:45,965 --> 00:17:47,550
It just seems that
a couple of his college friends
406
00:17:47,675 --> 00:17:49,510
may have gotten themselves
into a bit of a jam.
407
00:17:49,635 --> 00:17:51,304
You're talking about
Ignacio and Yuri.
408
00:17:51,429 --> 00:17:52,472
You know them?
409
00:17:52,597 --> 00:17:54,891
Jason and the boys have been
hanging out together quite a bit.
410
00:17:55,016 --> 00:17:56,559
We try to give Jason his space.
411
00:17:56,726 --> 00:17:59,395
That was the whole idea of his
taking over the guest house.
412
00:18:02,773 --> 00:18:04,650
We keep this for emergencies.
413
00:18:12,575 --> 00:18:14,577
COLBY: Were you aware of this,
ma'am?
414
00:18:14,911 --> 00:18:17,622
No. As I said, we...
415
00:18:17,914 --> 00:18:19,540
Try to give your son his space.
416
00:18:19,665 --> 00:18:21,334
The kid's running
a little casino out of here.
417
00:18:21,459 --> 00:18:24,629
- Probably uses it to practice.
- Practice? Practice what?
418
00:18:25,004 --> 00:18:27,340
COLBY: Your son plays an awful
lot of blackjack, ma'am.
419
00:18:27,465 --> 00:18:29,467
What are you talking about?
420
00:18:30,635 --> 00:18:32,637
Yuri Chernov was shot
last night.
421
00:18:32,970 --> 00:18:34,222
He's dead.
422
00:18:35,306 --> 00:18:36,557
No.
423
00:18:37,016 --> 00:18:39,101
Please let us do our jobs,
ma'am.
424
00:18:39,769 --> 00:18:42,063
I'm going to go call my husband.
425
00:18:42,271 --> 00:18:43,773
I think that's a good idea.
426
00:19:01,791 --> 00:19:03,334
Take a look at this.
427
00:19:03,543 --> 00:19:07,421
Looks like Yuri Chernov wasn't the
only one using fake IDs and disguises.
428
00:19:14,136 --> 00:19:15,638
Wait a minute.
429
00:19:16,806 --> 00:19:18,182
Check this out.
430
00:19:20,142 --> 00:19:22,812
Wow, looks like they were
keeping pretty careful records.
431
00:19:23,020 --> 00:19:25,481
Yeah. Any luck, it might lead us
to their backer.
432
00:19:25,898 --> 00:19:27,149
Yeah.
433
00:19:28,526 --> 00:19:30,069
Now, if I can take
this data here
434
00:19:30,194 --> 00:19:31,988
and isolate the student's
gambling history,
435
00:19:32,113 --> 00:19:33,573
maybe I can analyze
the money flow,
436
00:19:33,698 --> 00:19:35,032
maybe find a pattern.
437
00:19:35,199 --> 00:19:37,743
You could use multivariate
time series analysis
438
00:19:37,868 --> 00:19:40,663
to break the money down by
specific days, even hours.
439
00:19:40,788 --> 00:19:41,914
That's a really good idea.
440
00:19:42,039 --> 00:19:43,040
Wow.
441
00:19:44,250 --> 00:19:47,670
Oh, once again, my living room
has become a Cal Sci annex.
442
00:19:48,379 --> 00:19:50,673
- Your-Your living room.
- My garage is full.
443
00:19:50,798 --> 00:19:52,717
All of my cognitive theory work,
so...
444
00:19:52,842 --> 00:19:54,719
ALAN: Why am I not surprised?
What is this?
445
00:19:54,885 --> 00:19:56,178
AMITA: Well, the student
who was murdered --
446
00:19:56,304 --> 00:19:58,848
he and his two friends were
members of a card-counting team.
447
00:19:59,015 --> 00:20:01,392
Don asked Charlie to have
us look at this data to see
448
00:20:01,517 --> 00:20:03,102
if we could discover
who was bankrolling them.
449
00:20:03,227 --> 00:20:04,395
Card counting.
450
00:20:04,520 --> 00:20:05,730
Isn't that called cheating?
451
00:20:05,896 --> 00:20:08,274
Card counting is not cheating.
452
00:20:08,399 --> 00:20:11,944
It is the application
of probability theory to a game.
453
00:20:12,069 --> 00:20:13,821
ALAN: Yeah, well, all those schmucks
who play the game for fun --
454
00:20:13,894 --> 00:20:14,984
they think it's cheating.
455
00:20:15,072 --> 00:20:16,345
LARRY: Well, those are
the same schmucks
456
00:20:16,407 --> 00:20:17,908
that should stick
to slot machines.
457
00:20:18,075 --> 00:20:19,994
ALAN: Well, you see,
that's why I like playing poker.
458
00:20:20,161 --> 00:20:22,204
'Cause I can handle the ones
that try to take advantage.
459
00:20:22,330 --> 00:20:25,207
Poker, I mean, you got
to have a mind, a pair of eyes.
460
00:20:26,250 --> 00:20:28,002
These probability grids --
461
00:20:28,294 --> 00:20:31,964
they go way beyond
simple high-low counting.
462
00:20:32,089 --> 00:20:33,674
These were math students, Larry.
463
00:20:33,841 --> 00:20:34,782
LARRY:
Oh, oh.
464
00:20:34,857 --> 00:20:36,233
This-This is not
undergraduate work.
465
00:20:36,383 --> 00:20:37,842
You're saying
someone helped them?
466
00:20:37,970 --> 00:20:40,014
You know, this is reminding me
of someone.
467
00:20:40,598 --> 00:20:42,099
There was this guy Leonard,
468
00:20:42,224 --> 00:20:44,727
and he and I were in
graduate school together.
469
00:20:44,894 --> 00:20:46,687
When the casinos
opened in Atlantic City,
470
00:20:46,812 --> 00:20:48,981
we were there
the very first day.
471
00:20:49,106 --> 00:20:52,735
We were using counting systems,
probability grids like this,
472
00:20:52,902 --> 00:20:54,820
though these are at
a much higher level.
473
00:20:54,987 --> 00:20:56,572
Leonard Philbrick.
474
00:20:56,931 --> 00:20:58,892
Well, why haven't we heard
this name before, Larry?
475
00:20:59,033 --> 00:21:00,743
I don't... It's just not a...
476
00:21:01,118 --> 00:21:03,996
a part of my life
that I'm particularly proud of.
477
00:21:04,163 --> 00:21:06,791
I mean, I've moved on
from my obsession.
478
00:21:07,416 --> 00:21:09,251
But not so with Leonard.
479
00:21:09,585 --> 00:21:12,672
He lost his wife,
he lost his career,
480
00:21:12,797 --> 00:21:15,132
and he was a man
of great promise.
481
00:21:16,342 --> 00:21:17,885
I'll tell you something.
482
00:21:18,177 --> 00:21:20,471
Whoever did this
was a mathematician.
483
00:21:20,638 --> 00:21:21,889
You can bet on that.
484
00:21:22,682 --> 00:21:25,309
We were able to reach
Ignacio Nadal's mom in Detroit.
485
00:21:25,434 --> 00:21:26,352
Single parent.
486
00:21:26,477 --> 00:21:27,812
Says he missed his
weekly call home.
487
00:21:27,978 --> 00:21:28,854
She seems worried.
488
00:21:28,986 --> 00:21:31,023
All right, well, that's two kids
no one's heard from.
489
00:21:31,148 --> 00:21:34,276
The fake IDs and disguises
in Brewer's place,
490
00:21:34,443 --> 00:21:36,904
you got to assume Nadal's
working the same angle, right?
491
00:21:37,029 --> 00:21:38,114
Anything in the dorm?
492
00:21:38,280 --> 00:21:40,032
No, looks like he cleared
out of there in a hurry.
493
00:21:40,157 --> 00:21:41,742
So both of these
kids are on the run.
494
00:21:41,867 --> 00:21:43,577
Hey, I was just looking
for you guys.
495
00:21:43,703 --> 00:21:45,246
Larry came up with a name.
496
00:21:45,371 --> 00:21:48,249
The probability grids and algorithms
found in Jason Brewer's place --
497
00:21:48,374 --> 00:21:51,043
he thinks there's a chance they
may belong to Leonard Philbrick.
498
00:21:51,210 --> 00:21:52,545
He says he could be our backer.
499
00:21:52,618 --> 00:21:54,036
Well, why don't you guys
just run it down,
500
00:21:54,067 --> 00:21:55,423
see if you can find
out where the guy is.
501
00:21:55,548 --> 00:21:56,590
You don't have to.
502
00:21:56,716 --> 00:21:58,217
I Googled Philbrick's
name on the way here.
503
00:21:58,342 --> 00:21:59,510
He's living in Long Beach.
504
00:21:59,650 --> 00:22:01,360
He teaches
high school math there.
505
00:22:01,421 --> 00:22:03,713
Well, that puts him right next door
to the Huntington Tech campus.
506
00:22:03,807 --> 00:22:05,558
- ( phone ringing )
- Yeah, Eppes.
507
00:22:06,517 --> 00:22:08,853
All right, we're on our way.
Yeah.
508
00:22:08,978 --> 00:22:11,021
LAPD just found Jason Brewer.
509
00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:16,235
MEGAN: Time of
death was 8:00 a.m.,
510
00:22:16,360 --> 00:22:17,778
and the commuters
heard the shots,
511
00:22:17,945 --> 00:22:19,113
but by the time
they found the body,
512
00:22:19,238 --> 00:22:20,823
it was too late
to lock up the building.
513
00:22:20,948 --> 00:22:23,159
SID said it's a nine millimeter.
514
00:22:25,494 --> 00:22:27,079
Same kind
that killed Chernov, huh?
515
00:22:27,246 --> 00:22:28,372
Yeah.
516
00:22:28,998 --> 00:22:31,000
Single shot to the head.
517
00:22:31,375 --> 00:22:32,752
No casings were found.
518
00:22:32,877 --> 00:22:35,004
We did find his backpack
in the trash, though.
519
00:22:35,129 --> 00:22:37,548
Phone numbers, addresses,
and this.
520
00:22:37,840 --> 00:22:39,467
Yeah? What's this?
521
00:22:41,218 --> 00:22:42,303
Wow, look at this --
522
00:22:42,470 --> 00:22:44,472
J, K, Q, A...
523
00:22:44,597 --> 00:22:46,140
Jack, King, Queen, Ace.
524
00:22:46,265 --> 00:22:48,309
Some kind of card sequence list.
525
00:22:49,560 --> 00:22:52,646
Ticket agent remembers selling
Brewer a one-way bus fare to Vancouver.
526
00:22:52,813 --> 00:22:54,607
Stuck out because Brewer
didn't have the money.
527
00:22:54,732 --> 00:22:56,609
Older guy paid
for the ticket with cash.
528
00:22:56,692 --> 00:22:58,652
- You get a description?
- Actually, better than that.
529
00:22:58,778 --> 00:23:01,113
They just ID'd the older guy
that was with Brewer.
530
00:23:01,864 --> 00:23:03,199
Leonard Philbrick?
531
00:23:03,324 --> 00:23:04,867
Same guy Charlie
and Larry pegged
532
00:23:04,992 --> 00:23:07,036
as a possible financial
backer for these kids.
533
00:23:07,203 --> 00:23:09,246
All right, well,
looks like they might be right.
534
00:23:15,711 --> 00:23:17,129
Jason dead?
535
00:23:17,421 --> 00:23:18,798
That's just horrible.
536
00:23:18,923 --> 00:23:21,425
His mother collapsed
when we told her about him.
537
00:23:21,592 --> 00:23:23,135
I can only imagine.
538
00:23:23,385 --> 00:23:24,887
I doubt that.
539
00:23:25,846 --> 00:23:27,848
You don't think I had anything
to do with it?
540
00:23:28,015 --> 00:23:29,850
Well, he was shot in the head
at a bus station
541
00:23:29,975 --> 00:23:31,977
within 30 minutes of
you buying him a ticket.
542
00:23:32,061 --> 00:23:33,103
As far as we know,
543
00:23:33,270 --> 00:23:35,064
you were the last person
to see him alive.
544
00:23:35,314 --> 00:23:36,565
I think, uh...
545
00:23:36,982 --> 00:23:39,443
I think I better talk to my
lawyer before we continue this.
546
00:23:39,594 --> 00:23:41,404
Yeah? Why don't you ask them
in there what they're gonna think
547
00:23:41,523 --> 00:23:43,656
about you recruiting their kids
to hustle cards, Leonard?
548
00:23:43,781 --> 00:23:45,866
We know all about
you, Professor.
549
00:23:45,991 --> 00:23:47,868
About your dreams
of putting your crew together,
550
00:23:48,035 --> 00:23:49,745
about your past gambling debts.
551
00:23:50,120 --> 00:23:51,580
I don't know
what you're talking about.
552
00:23:51,747 --> 00:23:52,998
DON: No?
Well, why do phone records
553
00:23:53,123 --> 00:23:54,834
put you in touch with Brewer,
Chernov, and Nadal
554
00:23:54,959 --> 00:23:56,085
within the last six months?
555
00:23:56,252 --> 00:23:59,421
You finally put together a team,
and now two of them are dead.
556
00:24:00,256 --> 00:24:02,591
I didn't hurt Jason or Yuri.
557
00:24:02,716 --> 00:24:04,510
I could never do
something like that.
558
00:24:04,635 --> 00:24:06,428
Where is Ignacio Nadal?
559
00:24:06,554 --> 00:24:07,596
I don't know.
560
00:24:07,721 --> 00:24:09,181
Is he on the run from somebody?
561
00:24:09,765 --> 00:24:12,184
Look, these kids --
they came to me.
562
00:24:12,351 --> 00:24:15,187
They found articles I'd written
and a system I developed.
563
00:24:15,312 --> 00:24:17,189
What, you taught 'em, and
you bankrolled 'em, right?
564
00:24:17,314 --> 00:24:18,607
Until last month, yes.
565
00:24:18,732 --> 00:24:20,150
Why? What happened then?
566
00:24:20,484 --> 00:24:22,236
They told me
they found some new backer.
567
00:24:22,361 --> 00:24:24,196
Somebody with substantially
more money.
568
00:24:24,321 --> 00:24:25,990
And you just took that
in stride?
569
00:24:26,115 --> 00:24:27,867
I didn't kill Jason Brewer.
570
00:24:27,950 --> 00:24:29,243
All right, Leonard,
why don't you tell us
571
00:24:29,368 --> 00:24:30,786
what you were doing in
the bus station then?
572
00:24:30,911 --> 00:24:32,079
He needed help.
573
00:24:32,204 --> 00:24:33,914
He was on the run,
and his parents are out of town.
574
00:24:34,081 --> 00:24:35,749
He had nobody that
he could turn to.
575
00:24:36,083 --> 00:24:38,502
I would never do anything
to hurt these kids.
576
00:24:38,752 --> 00:24:40,296
I was their teacher.
577
00:24:42,214 --> 00:24:44,216
MEGAN: We need
to find Ignacio Nadal.
578
00:24:44,341 --> 00:24:45,676
We put a trace on
his mom's phone.
579
00:24:45,843 --> 00:24:47,177
We're monitoring
his cell provider.
580
00:24:47,303 --> 00:24:49,263
He makes one phone
call, we're on him.
581
00:24:49,513 --> 00:24:51,348
What about friends
or classmates?
582
00:24:51,473 --> 00:24:53,017
Aside from Chernov and Brewer,
583
00:24:53,142 --> 00:24:54,685
this guy's pretty much a loner.
584
00:24:54,810 --> 00:24:56,270
- Colby?
- Hey, guys.
585
00:24:56,395 --> 00:24:57,521
I think I got something.
586
00:24:57,688 --> 00:24:59,273
Remember that girl the
other night who was with
587
00:24:59,398 --> 00:25:00,816
Ignacio on the tape?
588
00:25:00,941 --> 00:25:02,735
Mm-hmm. Brandi?
589
00:25:02,860 --> 00:25:04,653
- With an "I."
- Yeah.
590
00:25:04,778 --> 00:25:07,364
Check this out. She was not
just with Ignacio.
591
00:25:07,489 --> 00:25:09,074
She was there other nights.
592
00:25:09,199 --> 00:25:10,868
MEGAN: She's
with all three guys?
593
00:25:11,076 --> 00:25:12,328
Yeah, all of them.
594
00:25:12,453 --> 00:25:14,121
See, I went through
Jason Brewer's address book.
595
00:25:14,288 --> 00:25:15,581
I found her number.
596
00:25:15,706 --> 00:25:17,124
It's her work number anyway.
597
00:25:18,375 --> 00:25:19,627
MEGAN:
The Bareback Club?
598
00:25:19,793 --> 00:25:21,378
She's the main attraction.
599
00:25:21,545 --> 00:25:24,173
So, who do we think
should do that interview?
600
00:25:26,342 --> 00:25:28,510
( hip-hop music playing )
601
00:25:38,646 --> 00:25:40,689
Check out the midday crowd.
602
00:25:41,023 --> 00:25:43,150
COLBY: Looks like a bunch
of dads got separated
603
00:25:43,317 --> 00:25:45,778
from their families on
the bus to Disneyland.
604
00:25:45,903 --> 00:25:47,905
( music continues )
605
00:25:52,117 --> 00:25:54,203
I'm sensing premeditation.
606
00:25:56,622 --> 00:25:59,667
We're looking for Brandi,
and don't start pouring.
607
00:26:09,843 --> 00:26:11,595
I'll tell the DJ
to cut the music.
608
00:26:11,762 --> 00:26:13,555
Whoa, hold on a minute.
609
00:26:13,681 --> 00:26:15,891
One song's not gonna
kill anybody.
610
00:26:16,225 --> 00:26:18,394
Relax, have yourself a soda.
611
00:26:18,519 --> 00:26:21,146
Let the Disneyland dads
have one last look.
612
00:26:22,272 --> 00:26:23,691
Nice tie.
613
00:26:34,034 --> 00:26:37,121
Yeah, I was there that night
with Ignacio, but I left early.
614
00:26:37,287 --> 00:26:39,456
- So you knew him?
- I know a lot of people.
615
00:26:39,581 --> 00:26:41,125
How about people
who get murdered?
616
00:26:41,291 --> 00:26:42,543
Ignacio's dead?
617
00:26:42,668 --> 00:26:44,003
COLBY:
Not yet.
618
00:26:45,170 --> 00:26:46,338
I don't understand.
619
00:26:46,463 --> 00:26:47,965
We saw the surveillance tapes.
620
00:26:48,090 --> 00:26:50,217
You were there with two
other guys besides Ignacio.
621
00:26:50,342 --> 00:26:51,635
Ignacio's friends.
622
00:26:51,760 --> 00:26:52,886
They're dead.
623
00:26:53,012 --> 00:26:54,096
Oh, my God.
624
00:26:54,221 --> 00:26:56,432
We're trying to make sure
that doesn't happen to Ignacio.
625
00:26:56,598 --> 00:26:58,100
Have you seen him?
626
00:26:58,267 --> 00:27:00,019
Has he tried to call you?
627
00:27:01,061 --> 00:27:02,896
Why'd you leave
early that night?
628
00:27:03,689 --> 00:27:05,274
I had another date?
629
00:27:05,414 --> 00:27:06,749
Did that date have a name?
630
00:27:06,859 --> 00:27:07,818
He's married.
631
00:27:07,943 --> 00:27:09,278
We'll be discreet.
632
00:27:09,862 --> 00:27:12,990
And Ignacio --
was he a date, also?
633
00:27:13,407 --> 00:27:14,658
Not exactly.
634
00:27:14,783 --> 00:27:16,326
Well, then be exact.
635
00:27:16,785 --> 00:27:18,620
I provide a service.
636
00:27:19,747 --> 00:27:21,081
Not that service.
637
00:27:21,206 --> 00:27:23,083
What, were you their math tutor?
638
00:27:23,542 --> 00:27:25,627
They needed me
to pull off their act.
639
00:27:25,753 --> 00:27:28,005
With me on their arm,
it gave them some credibility.
640
00:27:28,172 --> 00:27:29,840
So you knew
they were counting cards?
641
00:27:30,007 --> 00:27:31,091
Nobody's that lucky.
642
00:27:31,258 --> 00:27:32,718
So, what did you get out
of the deal?
643
00:27:32,885 --> 00:27:34,219
Money.
644
00:27:34,678 --> 00:27:36,055
A lot of money.
645
00:27:36,180 --> 00:27:38,140
Did you notice
anybody following them?
646
00:27:38,265 --> 00:27:39,641
Anybody watching them?
647
00:27:39,767 --> 00:27:43,145
You're up five, ten grand,
people are watching.
648
00:27:43,270 --> 00:27:46,023
I told Ignacio
some day they'd get made.
649
00:27:46,523 --> 00:27:48,734
So you think that's
what happened to them?
650
00:27:49,109 --> 00:27:51,153
Nobody likes to lose money.
651
00:27:51,236 --> 00:27:55,074
MAN ( over PA ): Guys, put your hands
together for Sapphire.
652
00:28:02,372 --> 00:28:04,291
Office getting cramped?
653
00:28:04,541 --> 00:28:06,168
Uh, it's being cleaned.
654
00:28:06,376 --> 00:28:08,378
After months battling
the maintenance department,
655
00:28:08,504 --> 00:28:09,797
you know, I gave in.
656
00:28:10,380 --> 00:28:12,257
- How's it going?
- Ugh!
657
00:28:12,382 --> 00:28:13,759
I'm having trouble isolating
658
00:28:13,884 --> 00:28:16,303
the students' gambling
histories, as we discussed.
659
00:28:16,428 --> 00:28:19,348
To find a pattern that'll yield
the identity of the backer.
660
00:28:19,515 --> 00:28:20,557
Maybe the killer.
661
00:28:20,682 --> 00:28:21,809
No luck so far.
662
00:28:21,934 --> 00:28:24,144
You know, I-I could really
use your help, Larry.
663
00:28:28,023 --> 00:28:29,399
Lawrence.
664
00:28:29,817 --> 00:28:31,443
Hey, did you two know
665
00:28:31,568 --> 00:28:34,863
that Yuri Chernov
was a Tasker Scholar?
666
00:28:34,988 --> 00:28:37,533
He was the first member of
his family to go to college.
667
00:28:37,699 --> 00:28:40,744
Jason Brewer --
his IQ is off the charts.
668
00:28:40,869 --> 00:28:42,663
Ignacio Nadal
669
00:28:42,830 --> 00:28:45,707
may be the most, I don't know,
gifted of them all.
670
00:28:45,833 --> 00:28:48,043
CHARLIE: Well, don't you take
solace in knowing that clearly,
671
00:28:48,168 --> 00:28:49,419
you're not the only
brilliant thinker
672
00:28:49,586 --> 00:28:51,463
to fall under the allure
of gambling?
673
00:28:51,797 --> 00:28:54,007
I need your brilliant thinking
right now.
674
00:28:54,133 --> 00:28:56,969
I'm-I'm... I-I just can't
make sense of these figures.
675
00:28:57,094 --> 00:29:00,264
If I could be as vague
and opaque as Larry,
676
00:29:00,389 --> 00:29:04,017
I'd say if the new backer
is behind these killings,
677
00:29:04,268 --> 00:29:07,229
then maybe you need to
look behind these numbers.
678
00:29:08,772 --> 00:29:10,649
Yeah, she's right, Charlie.
679
00:29:11,775 --> 00:29:14,486
It's like...
it's like money moves.
680
00:29:14,611 --> 00:29:18,907
Like planets, it's very movement
reveals truths.
681
00:29:26,540 --> 00:29:29,710
You really think
these kids are laundering money?
682
00:29:29,835 --> 00:29:31,920
On a pretty big scale.
683
00:29:32,171 --> 00:29:34,381
So they take money they
couldn't account for legally,
684
00:29:34,506 --> 00:29:36,508
and use gambling
to legitimize it?
685
00:29:36,633 --> 00:29:39,136
They use the card club
as their washing machine.
686
00:29:39,261 --> 00:29:42,222
Look. Look how the money
flow altered a month ago,
687
00:29:42,389 --> 00:29:44,207
when I believe a new
backer came onto the scene.
688
00:29:44,308 --> 00:29:46,685
These kids changed
the way they purchased chips.
689
00:29:46,810 --> 00:29:50,063
And in any 24-hour period,
they never exceeded $10,000.
690
00:29:50,230 --> 00:29:52,482
Right, 'cause they stayed below
the IRS reporting limit.
691
00:29:52,608 --> 00:29:54,568
So there's no record
of the cash they started with,
692
00:29:54,693 --> 00:29:57,237
and a few thousand winnings
doesn't really seem like a big scam.
693
00:29:57,362 --> 00:29:58,989
That's where they were smart.
694
00:29:59,114 --> 00:30:00,866
We have three students.
695
00:30:00,991 --> 00:30:02,826
Right. With multiple IDs.
696
00:30:02,951 --> 00:30:06,914
CHARLIE: Which they used to create
three separate card club player accounts.
697
00:30:07,039 --> 00:30:08,457
So, we have three students
698
00:30:08,582 --> 00:30:10,209
with three separate
player accounts
699
00:30:10,334 --> 00:30:12,586
cashing out $9,900 a night.
700
00:30:12,711 --> 00:30:15,297
That's $89,100 per visit.
701
00:30:15,631 --> 00:30:18,300
Playing six or seven days a week
for a month.
702
00:30:18,425 --> 00:30:20,427
So, that's got to
be at least, what...
703
00:30:20,552 --> 00:30:22,137
I mean, it's over
two million, right?
704
00:30:22,262 --> 00:30:26,433
To be precise, in one month,
that's $2,138,000.
705
00:30:26,558 --> 00:30:28,352
So where's all that money go,
back to the backer?
706
00:30:28,518 --> 00:30:30,395
They wired their money
from the player account
707
00:30:30,520 --> 00:30:32,439
to an offshore account where...
708
00:30:32,731 --> 00:30:33,941
Right, it disappeared.
709
00:30:34,066 --> 00:30:35,234
Unfortunately.
710
00:30:35,359 --> 00:30:37,319
So we can't trace
it to the backer.
711
00:30:37,694 --> 00:30:40,822
This kid Ignacio is the only
one who can tell us where it is.
712
00:30:40,948 --> 00:30:43,408
Which I'm sure the backer
knows, as well.
713
00:30:50,415 --> 00:30:52,334
♪ This is it... ♪
714
00:30:52,417 --> 00:30:53,835
CHARLIE:
You ever been to one of these?
715
00:30:53,961 --> 00:30:55,462
A few times.
My dad's dragged me.
716
00:30:55,629 --> 00:30:56,588
He's into it.
717
00:30:56,755 --> 00:30:59,508
My mom always takes away
his credit cards before we come.
718
00:31:00,676 --> 00:31:03,387
Table six just went
to a plus 18 count.
719
00:31:03,512 --> 00:31:05,514
- Is that good?
- Oh, yeah.
720
00:31:05,639 --> 00:31:06,848
I've got to tell you,
721
00:31:07,006 --> 00:31:09,425
I'm feeling so uncomfortable
about this.
722
00:31:09,559 --> 00:31:11,019
Larry, all you've been
telling me is
723
00:31:11,186 --> 00:31:12,604
that the only way to
understand this game
724
00:31:12,729 --> 00:31:14,815
is to sit at the blackjack
table and play the game.
725
00:31:14,940 --> 00:31:16,191
Charlie's right, Larry.
726
00:31:16,358 --> 00:31:18,402
The students were doing
very complicated equations
727
00:31:18,527 --> 00:31:19,945
in a high-stress environment.
728
00:31:20,070 --> 00:31:21,530
You know, I need
to feel how they felt.
729
00:31:21,634 --> 00:31:22,864
I need to play how they played.
730
00:31:22,953 --> 00:31:24,067
I-I need you to teach me.
731
00:31:24,217 --> 00:31:25,473
I don't think you understand
732
00:31:25,575 --> 00:31:28,537
just how truly narcotic
this is for me.
733
00:31:28,787 --> 00:31:30,998
Can't you just see this
as-as field work?
734
00:31:31,123 --> 00:31:33,041
Unfortunately,
it is a poppy field.
735
00:31:33,166 --> 00:31:35,877
I'm warning you both,
we're standing at the precipice.

Well, nothing like the sting
of over-oxygenated air
753
00:32:28,180 --> 00:32:29,598
and endless pecuniary promise.
754
00:32:29,765 --> 00:32:32,267
You know, this used to be about
demonstrating the power of mathematics.
755
00:32:32,434 --> 00:32:33,935
Okay, well, there is that, too.
756
00:32:34,102 --> 00:32:35,562
- I think we should call it a night.
- What?!
757
00:32:35,687 --> 00:32:37,397
- Yeah, let's get out of here.
- How about field research?
758
00:32:37,564 --> 00:32:38,774
Come on, we got table four
over there
759
00:32:38,899 --> 00:32:40,484
just ripe for the picking.
760
00:32:40,650 --> 00:32:42,194
What is he doing
with those cards?
761
00:32:42,319 --> 00:32:45,155
LARRY: Some clubs introduce a
fresh deck at the dealer shift change.
762
00:32:45,280 --> 00:32:47,115
Just prevents players
from marking the cards.
763
00:32:47,240 --> 00:32:48,450
People actually do that?
764
00:32:48,617 --> 00:32:53,038
I know players who can cut a
multi-deck stack at exactly 52 cards.
765
00:32:53,163 --> 00:32:55,999
Some players do other feats,
like shuffle-tracking.
766
00:32:56,124 --> 00:32:57,209
Shuffle-tracking?
767
00:32:57,334 --> 00:32:59,711
Yeah, well, no shuffle by
human hand is exactly perfect.
768
00:32:59,836 --> 00:33:01,171
Some cards remain together.
769
00:33:01,338 --> 00:33:02,714
And the players
who memorize the order
770
00:33:02,881 --> 00:33:04,549
look for those same groupings
in the next shuffle.
771
00:33:04,674 --> 00:33:06,093
That's why they're
using machines now.
772
00:33:06,259 --> 00:33:07,677
How do those machines work?
773
00:33:07,803 --> 00:33:09,888
LARRY: Auto-shufflers, they use
random number generation
774
00:33:10,055 --> 00:33:12,224
to create a random distribution
of cards.
775
00:33:12,349 --> 00:33:13,350
Interesting.
776
00:33:13,475 --> 00:33:15,519
Because what do we know
about random distribution?
777
00:33:15,644 --> 00:33:19,564
It's impossible for machines to
create truly random sequences.
778
00:33:23,735 --> 00:33:28,365
These kids cracked the code for
how an auto-shuffler shuffles.
779
00:33:28,532 --> 00:33:30,700
The sequences found
in Jason Brewer's notebook
780
00:33:30,867 --> 00:33:33,161
were in fact card-counting
cheat sheets,
781
00:33:33,328 --> 00:33:37,999
exploiting a weakness in the random
number generator found inside this box.
782
00:33:38,125 --> 00:33:40,794
DAVID: That's the auto-shuffler we
found in Jason Brewer's apartment.
783
00:33:40,961 --> 00:33:44,673
CHARLIE: The students used it to
adapt a card skill called shuffle-tracking.
784
00:33:44,840 --> 00:33:46,174
Yeah, when dealers shuffle,
785
00:33:46,341 --> 00:33:48,093
there are little runs of cards
that stay together.
786
00:33:48,260 --> 00:33:49,761
So the players will
look for them to reappear.
787
00:33:49,886 --> 00:33:51,304
CHARLIE:
And clubs try to prevent this
788
00:33:51,471 --> 00:33:53,014
by using the auto-shuffler.
789
00:33:53,181 --> 00:33:55,308
But, as we all know,
machines aren't perfect.
790
00:33:55,475 --> 00:33:56,810
And the kids took advantage.
791
00:33:56,935 --> 00:33:58,520
Right and how'd they do that?
792
00:33:58,645 --> 00:34:01,064
First, they must have analyzed
this mechanism.
793
00:34:01,231 --> 00:34:04,860
So an auto-shuffler shuffles
using a system of multiple shelves,
794
00:34:04,985 --> 00:34:08,113
depositing the cards on shelves
in a seemingly random order.
795
00:34:08,280 --> 00:34:10,365
But the shuffles
aren't really random,
796
00:34:10,532 --> 00:34:12,576
because
the random number generator
797
00:34:12,701 --> 00:34:14,327
controlling the auto-shuffler
798
00:34:14,453 --> 00:34:16,496
is governed by
a fixed algorithm.
799
00:34:17,205 --> 00:34:18,874
And these kids
figured all that out?
800
00:34:19,040 --> 00:34:20,333
That's not all they figured out.
801
00:34:20,459 --> 00:34:22,502
This specific card
club had a policy.
802
00:34:22,627 --> 00:34:25,714
On dealer shift changes,
they would introduce new decks,
803
00:34:25,839 --> 00:34:28,133
sealed straight
from the factory.
804
00:34:28,216 --> 00:34:30,302
Now, these cards
are in a preset order.
805
00:34:30,427 --> 00:34:31,803
Now, knowing this staring order,
806
00:34:31,928 --> 00:34:33,913
as well as the algorithm
enabled these students...
807
00:34:34,055 --> 00:34:36,349
DAVID: To know the cards that were
coming before they were even dealt.
808
00:34:36,475 --> 00:34:39,060
That kind of math problem is
way beyond our three students.
809
00:34:39,227 --> 00:34:40,687
Their teacher was
Leonard Philbrick.
810
00:34:40,812 --> 00:34:42,898
- He had to have helped them.
- Oh, he did more than that.
811
00:34:43,064 --> 00:34:45,066
I just got off the phone with
the auto-shuffler company.
812
00:34:45,233 --> 00:34:46,943
Guess who they hired as
their math consultant.
813
00:34:47,068 --> 00:34:48,278
What, Philbrick?
814
00:34:48,403 --> 00:34:50,405
He created the
auto-shuffler's algorithm?
815
00:34:50,530 --> 00:34:52,491
MEGAN: Yeah, which he
could have then given
816
00:34:52,616 --> 00:34:54,242
to Ignacio and the students, right?
817
00:34:54,367 --> 00:34:56,286
Which means that he could
have easily designed an algorithm
818
00:34:56,411 --> 00:34:58,288
that had a much shorter period
to follow.
819
00:34:58,413 --> 00:35:00,457
Thousands of steps,
instead of billions.
820
00:35:00,624 --> 00:35:01,917
Okay, so they were cheating,
821
00:35:02,083 --> 00:35:04,169
which gives the card club
motivation to go after them.
822
00:35:04,294 --> 00:35:06,004
MEGAN: Yeah, but let's not
forget about Philbrick.
823
00:35:06,129 --> 00:35:09,049
All that "I was their teacher"
stuff goes out the window,
824
00:35:09,216 --> 00:35:11,009
if the students stole the scam
and ran with it.
825
00:35:11,134 --> 00:35:14,262
What was I supposed to do,
admit I stole a trade secret?
826
00:35:14,429 --> 00:35:16,556
Used it to cheat a card club
out of thousands?
827
00:35:16,723 --> 00:35:18,391
Would have been a start.
828
00:35:18,683 --> 00:35:21,186
You could have used it as
mitigation at your murder trial.
829
00:35:21,311 --> 00:35:23,647
I told you
I didn't murder anyone.
830
00:35:23,772 --> 00:35:25,815
Yeah, well, Leonard, I'm
guessing you know who did.
831
00:35:25,982 --> 00:35:27,317
One way or another,
you're involved in this,
832
00:35:27,436 --> 00:35:28,686
and you're not telling us, okay?
833
00:35:28,769 --> 00:35:30,413
So I'm telling you, anything
happens to that kid Nadal,
834
00:35:30,513 --> 00:35:32,181
that's three murders
I'm connecting you to.
835
00:35:32,283 --> 00:35:33,493
Do you understand that?
836
00:35:35,408 --> 00:35:39,371
Look, the kids got caught with
the auto-shuffler, all right?
837
00:35:39,538 --> 00:35:40,872
By who?
838
00:35:41,623 --> 00:35:42,624
Marius.
839
00:35:42,749 --> 00:35:44,042
The club manager.
840
00:35:44,167 --> 00:35:45,961
Next thing I know,
he's at my door.
841
00:35:46,127 --> 00:35:47,963
Oh, so the kids gave you up.
842
00:35:48,463 --> 00:35:50,298
I warned them not to get greedy.
843
00:35:50,507 --> 00:35:51,675
Knowing that shuffle,
844
00:35:51,800 --> 00:35:55,011
you can make returns of 200,
even 300 percent every few hours.
845
00:35:55,136 --> 00:35:56,972
Yeah, but not without
someone noticing.
846
00:35:57,097 --> 00:35:59,099
Marius caught them, day one.
847
00:35:59,266 --> 00:36:01,142
And that's how
the dirty money came in.
848
00:36:01,268 --> 00:36:04,271
He's got connections with drug
distributors on the East Coast.
849
00:36:04,437 --> 00:36:05,564
So you made a deal --
850
00:36:05,730 --> 00:36:07,482
your asses for the
money laundering scam.
851
00:36:07,649 --> 00:36:09,192
What else could we do?
852
00:36:09,859 --> 00:36:10,986
All right.
853
00:36:11,111 --> 00:36:12,612
So what went wrong?
854
00:36:12,737 --> 00:36:14,531
Well, the kids got cold feet.
855
00:36:14,656 --> 00:36:15,865
They wanted to come forward,
856
00:36:15,991 --> 00:36:18,285
admit to the gambling fraud,
the money laundering.
857
00:36:18,410 --> 00:36:20,453
What happened then?
Marius found out?
858
00:36:20,620 --> 00:36:23,582
The recent high roller robberies
presented a perfect opportunity --
859
00:36:23,707 --> 00:36:25,250
a cover for Yuri's murder.
860
00:36:25,584 --> 00:36:26,793
As for Jason,
861
00:36:26,918 --> 00:36:29,588
Marius must have followed him
when he came to see me.
862
00:36:30,171 --> 00:36:32,382
That's got to mean
Ignacio is next.
863
00:36:32,507 --> 00:36:34,759
I guess he doesn't
want to leave any witnesses.
864
00:36:48,940 --> 00:36:50,150
Hey, FBI.
865
00:36:50,317 --> 00:36:51,776
Where's Marius, the manager?
866
00:36:58,450 --> 00:36:59,534
( sniffs )
867
00:36:59,659 --> 00:37:00,702
Smell that?
868
00:37:00,869 --> 00:37:02,245
Shots fired.
869
00:37:03,997 --> 00:37:04,998
Yeah, here we go.
870
00:37:05,165 --> 00:37:06,458
I got a dead body here.
871
00:37:06,625 --> 00:37:08,043
Lock this place down.
872
00:37:14,758 --> 00:37:16,885
DON: All right,
so Marius isn't the killer.
873
00:37:17,052 --> 00:37:19,304
So we have to figure out
who would want Marius dead.
874
00:37:19,429 --> 00:37:21,514
Well, how about the people
he was laundering for,
875
00:37:21,640 --> 00:37:23,391
these east coast drug dealers.
876
00:37:23,516 --> 00:37:25,101
I mean, if you think about it,
Marius got a bunch
877
00:37:25,226 --> 00:37:26,895
of college kids involved
in money laundering,
878
00:37:27,020 --> 00:37:28,229
only he loses control of them.
879
00:37:28,355 --> 00:37:30,273
So what, he killed them all
to keep it quiet?
880
00:37:30,398 --> 00:37:32,025
Obviously he didn't
keep them quiet enough.
881
00:37:32,150 --> 00:37:34,736
Well, we know he's going
after Ignacio next.
882
00:37:34,861 --> 00:37:36,363
Yeah, 'cause he's the one
last witness.
883
00:37:36,488 --> 00:37:37,864
You, why are you so quiet
over there?
884
00:37:38,031 --> 00:37:40,033
It's statement Marius gave
to the LAPD.
885
00:37:40,158 --> 00:37:41,785
The night Yuri Chernov
was murdered,
886
00:37:41,951 --> 00:37:44,079
he says he started work
at 7:00 P.M.
887
00:37:44,204 --> 00:37:45,413
So?
888
00:37:45,664 --> 00:37:49,042
What are all these calls coming out
of his office first thing in the morning?
889
00:37:49,209 --> 00:37:51,044
Maybe somebody else
was using his office.
890
00:37:51,169 --> 00:37:52,504
COLBY:
Maybe he was just lying.
891
00:37:52,629 --> 00:37:54,506
DON: Yeah, but why
would he lie about that?
892
00:37:54,971 --> 00:37:58,558
Maybe he didn't want anyone to know
he was at the club when Yuri arrived.
893
00:37:58,968 --> 00:38:00,762
- What?
- CHARLIE: Constrained dynamics.
894
00:38:00,887 --> 00:38:04,057
Chernov's car was parked in a
security camera blind spot, right?
895
00:38:04,182 --> 00:38:05,934
Yeah, the whole corner
was obscured.
896
00:38:06,050 --> 00:38:08,928
All right. Do you have an overview
of the card club parking lot?
897
00:38:09,145 --> 00:38:11,147
Yeah. That's it right there.
898
00:38:11,981 --> 00:38:13,525
Chernov arrived late afternoon,
899
00:38:13,692 --> 00:38:15,193
well before the evening
crowds showed up.
900
00:38:15,360 --> 00:38:18,446
Why the hell would he park his car
this far away from the club's entrance?
901
00:38:18,905 --> 00:38:20,240
That doesn't add up.
902
00:38:20,365 --> 00:38:22,659
More than that,
it defies mathematical principles.
903
00:38:22,776 --> 00:38:25,745
Constrained dynamics is used to
analyze everything from traffic flow
904
00:38:25,870 --> 00:38:28,415
in supermarkets and malls to
the mechanics of granular matter...
905
00:38:28,581 --> 00:38:30,291
Meanwhile, back
in the parking lot?
906
00:38:30,458 --> 00:38:32,210
Applying constrained dynamics,
907
00:38:32,335 --> 00:38:35,255
the parking lot should have
filled up in a predictable pattern
908
00:38:35,380 --> 00:38:38,216
starting with the spaces
closest to the entrance
909
00:38:39,092 --> 00:38:42,470
and fanning out like a wave,
like, like a wave.
910
00:38:42,637 --> 00:38:44,013
Given the time
that Yuri arrived,
911
00:38:44,180 --> 00:38:47,308
I see no reason why
he parked his car this far away.
912
00:38:47,434 --> 00:38:49,978
Unless he wasn't the one
who parked it.
913
00:38:50,645 --> 00:38:52,355
All I did was park his car.
914
00:38:52,522 --> 00:38:54,441
Right.
In the back of an empty lot.
915
00:38:54,858 --> 00:38:57,986
Hey, Willie, you want to be
charged as an accessory here, huh?
916
00:38:58,778 --> 00:39:02,863
Look, the man paid me 500 bucks
to park the dude's car by the fence.
917
00:39:03,022 --> 00:39:04,607
What man? Marius?
918
00:39:05,285 --> 00:39:06,327
Another guy.
919
00:39:06,494 --> 00:39:08,663
But I saw him talking
with Marius that morning.
920
00:39:08,788 --> 00:39:11,958
Before that, he was with
the dude who got whacked.
921
00:39:12,250 --> 00:39:14,377
You're saying the guy that paid
you knew the victim.
922
00:39:14,502 --> 00:39:17,130
Yeah. A Latino dude,
a young guy.
923
00:39:17,255 --> 00:39:19,966
Came to the club all the time
with two friends.
924
00:39:20,133 --> 00:39:22,719
That day he was wearing
a soccer jersey
925
00:39:22,844 --> 00:39:24,804
- and a lot of jewelry.
- and a lot of jewelry.
926
00:39:25,680 --> 00:39:27,056
So Ignacio.
927
00:39:27,223 --> 00:39:31,102
He played both of his friends
and Philbrick and Marius?
928
00:39:31,227 --> 00:39:32,479
And if he's killing witnesses...
929
00:39:32,645 --> 00:39:34,606
He's got one left.
930
00:39:51,664 --> 00:39:53,583
Philbrick's heading
towards his car.
931
00:39:55,627 --> 00:39:57,003
I've got Philbrick.
932
00:40:03,551 --> 00:40:05,303
Suspect's acquired.
He's moving in.
933
00:40:05,428 --> 00:40:06,346
Where is he?
934
00:40:06,429 --> 00:40:08,640
He's on the other side of the
car as he's tracking Philbrick.
935
00:40:11,142 --> 00:40:12,268
I got him.
936
00:40:13,019 --> 00:40:14,521
Mr. Philbrick?
937
00:40:14,854 --> 00:40:17,816
If you have a second,
can I talk to you on my calculus grade?
938
00:40:17,941 --> 00:40:19,275
This is not a good time, Karen.
939
00:40:19,400 --> 00:40:20,360
But I really need...
940
00:40:20,485 --> 00:40:21,861
Karen, please walk away now!
941
00:40:22,904 --> 00:40:24,781
You guys, move, move!
942
00:40:26,991 --> 00:40:28,368
Keep your hands
where I can see 'em.
943
00:40:28,493 --> 00:40:30,537
Make a move for that gun
and you're dead.
944
00:40:34,290 --> 00:40:35,542
You set me up.
945
00:40:35,708 --> 00:40:37,168
COLBY: Yeah, just like
you set up your friends.
946
00:40:37,293 --> 00:40:38,586
And then you were going
to kill him.
947
00:40:38,711 --> 00:40:39,879
Up to your knees.
948
00:40:40,019 --> 00:40:41,938
Put your hands behind
your head slow.
949
00:40:42,298 --> 00:40:44,259
- Why?
- Why?
950
00:40:44,592 --> 00:40:45,844
Why not?
951
00:40:46,177 --> 00:40:48,137
You told us the money
was there, remember?
952
00:40:48,263 --> 00:40:49,973
All we had to do was take it.
953
00:40:50,306 --> 00:40:52,809
If Yuri and Jason
hadn't punked on me,
954
00:40:53,184 --> 00:40:54,769
it would have worked out, too.
955
00:40:55,186 --> 00:40:57,605
It looks like you gambled
and lost, pal.
956
00:41:03,111 --> 00:41:07,866
Well, I see once again you've escaped
all responsibility for your actions.
957
00:41:08,199 --> 00:41:09,409
Oh, Leonard,
958
00:41:09,534 --> 00:41:11,911
you must be very proud
of yourself.
959
00:41:12,036 --> 00:41:14,038
Larry Fleinhardt.
960
00:41:14,664 --> 00:41:17,041
Well, what's it been, 25 years?
961
00:41:17,166 --> 00:41:18,918
22, Leonard.
962
00:41:19,961 --> 00:41:21,796
I see your name in journals.
963
00:41:21,963 --> 00:41:24,090
Academic life
has treated you well.
964
00:41:24,632 --> 00:41:26,134
Well enough.
965
00:41:27,427 --> 00:41:28,761
What are you doing here?
966
00:41:28,928 --> 00:41:30,763
I'm just waiting on you.
967
00:41:31,639 --> 00:41:33,683
How could you do it?
968
00:41:34,017 --> 00:41:36,019
You know what the game
did to us.
969
00:41:36,185 --> 00:41:41,190
How could you visit such a fate
upon young gifted minds?
970
00:41:41,357 --> 00:41:42,650
Those kids came to me.
971
00:41:42,775 --> 00:41:44,736
And instead
of sharing your wisdom,
972
00:41:44,861 --> 00:41:47,655
two are dead and
another's going to prison.
973
00:41:48,072 --> 00:41:50,158
These kids were a second chance
for me.
974
00:41:50,342 --> 00:41:51,471
Come on.
975
00:41:51,868 --> 00:41:53,912
Don't tell me you don't
remember what it felt like
976
00:41:54,203 --> 00:41:56,664
to beat the house
at their own game.
977
00:41:57,081 --> 00:41:59,375
You were the best I ever saw,
Fleinhardt,
978
00:41:59,500 --> 00:42:00,960
and you just walked away.
979
00:42:01,085 --> 00:42:03,171
That's right.
I never looked back.
980
00:42:03,296 --> 00:42:05,006
When the numbers
are running you,
981
00:42:05,131 --> 00:42:06,799
instead of you
running the numbers,
982
00:42:06,925 --> 00:42:09,552
it's time to take your money off
the table, Leonard.
983
00:42:10,053 --> 00:42:12,180
Men make choices they have
to live with.
984
00:42:12,597 --> 00:42:15,934
Well, you know, I know two
who will never get that chance.
985
00:42:22,148 --> 00:42:25,068
So Philbrick cut a deal:
two years probation.
986
00:42:25,234 --> 00:42:26,653
ALAN:
He got lucky.
987
00:42:27,028 --> 00:42:28,655
Oh, yeah, if you want
to call it that.
988
00:42:28,780 --> 00:42:30,990
Again, I apologize
for not coming forward sooner.
989
00:42:31,115 --> 00:42:32,158
Ah, it's all right.
990
00:42:32,283 --> 00:42:33,826
No, I was tormented.
I was mortified.
991
00:42:33,993 --> 00:42:35,411
Look, you stepped up ultimately.
992
00:42:35,536 --> 00:42:37,413
Larry, do you realize
that without your help,
993
00:42:37,538 --> 00:42:39,415
we would have never figured out
those students were money laundering.
994
00:42:39,582 --> 00:42:43,044
Not to mention giving Charlie a
taste of real action at the tables.
995
00:42:43,378 --> 00:42:44,963
What are we talking about
blackjack for?
996
00:42:45,069 --> 00:42:46,112
Let's play a real game.
997
00:42:46,214 --> 00:42:47,703
- A real game?
- Poker!
998
00:42:48,549 --> 00:42:50,343
All the math in the world
is useless
999
00:42:50,468 --> 00:42:52,845
against a good read,
steady nerves.
1000
00:42:52,971 --> 00:42:55,181
I have had enough action
to last a lifetime.
1001
00:42:55,264 --> 00:42:57,475
Besides, poker is for
professional card players
1002
00:42:57,600 --> 00:42:59,435
and underemployed celebrities.
1003
00:42:59,519 --> 00:43:01,020
DON:
Yeah. I'm out, too, actually.
1004
00:43:01,104 --> 00:43:02,188
The last time I played with you,
1005
00:43:02,271 --> 00:43:03,690
I ended up eating mac and cheese
for a week.
1006
00:43:03,773 --> 00:43:04,941
Come on. We'll go sit outside.
1007
00:43:04,983 --> 00:43:06,317
You can tell me about
the gambling days.
1008
00:43:06,401 --> 00:43:08,069
Yeah. Yeah.
1009
00:43:09,070 --> 00:43:10,613
I guess it's you and me.
1010
00:43:11,948 --> 00:43:13,783
Texas Hold 'em, no limit.
1011
00:43:13,950 --> 00:43:15,576
What do you say
we bet the house?
1012
00:43:19,455 --> 00:43:21,666
You're not, you're not serious
about betting the house.
1013
00:43:21,749 --> 00:43:23,292
I'm always serious.
