[ sirens blaring ]

Buzz: testing. 1, 2, 3.
Testing.

[ indistinct conversations ]

[ indistinct conversations ]

Sergeant gabriel.

Okay, do you just state your
Name and describe what you saw.

I'm officer lese, lapd
Hollywood division.

We responded here
To a possible 187.

Did a visual check
Of the house.

Saw what we thought was a body
On downstairs floor.

Finding all doors and windows
Locked from the inside

We waited for backup.

Then we did
A hot crisis entry.

Great. And now she wants
The number of the 911 caller.

I'm detective sergeant
David gabriel,

Priority homicide, lapd.

We arrived on the scene,
Called out for the coroner,

And obtained a search warrant.

So far we've found almost $800
In cash and lots of jewelry,

So although we cannot
Rule out a robbery,

We are yet to determine
What might have been stolen.

Over here we have,
Victim no.1.

Not yet. Not yet.

Buzz:
Hold on. Hold on.

Ready?

Detective julio sanchez,
Priority homicide.

According to the victim's
Driver's license,

Her name is
Marsha anderson wallace, 42.

Deputy chief
Brenda leigh johnson,

Priority homicide division.

For the record,

Mrs. Wallace has multiple
Stab wounds on her body

And defensive wounds
To her hands.

Could you document that,
Please?

Here and here.

Over here,
What could be a blood trail,

Where mrs. Wallace possibly with
Struggled her attacker

Or attackers.
Okay, next body.

And go.

I am detective daniels,
Priority homicide division.

According
To his driver's license,

The victim's name
Is kevin alan wallace, 49.

Mr. Wallace appears
To have been attacked

While standing by his desk.

And, um...I've counted over
30 stab wounds in the body.

The room, please.

And I want y'all
To go through the house

Collecting laptops, computers,
And cell phones, please.

And, buzz,
When you're finished in here,

Why don't you meet me
By the stairs

Next to the last body,
Please?

Thank you.

Yes, ma'am.

Lieutenant andrew flynn, phd.

We're assuming this victim,
Jennifer anne wallace,

Who, um...
Signs her homework "Jenny" --

And just, uh...

Just, uh -- you know what?
Wait. Just wait.

Lieutenant flynn,
You okay?

Are you? I mean,
Look at this. Look!

All of this came from
This little girl's heart.

And I can't say
That it's blood.

Just one second. Okay.

Sergeant gabriel, I know I asked
You this before,

But could you please find the
Patrol officer and get the

Phone number of whoever reported
These deaths to 911.

Start calling it please to see
If anyone answers. Thank you.

Eh, one in mrs. Wallace's purse
And one off and charging

Behind the wet bar
In the den.

You want me to look at little
Girls room?

Yes, please.
Thank you.

Look lieutenant, I know that
This is hard.

But we are filming this crime
Scene for the court.

And if you call one little spot
Blood, that ain't blood--

And I can't edit this so..

Okay.

The victim is 12
And in her pajamas.

So maybe she came downstairs

To see what all the screaming
Was about.

There are three
Visible wounds --

One in the back,
One in the chest,

And one in the throat.

Would you document that,
Please?

Yes, ma'am.

There's a letter opener
Here in the sink.

Now, this might be
From the blotter set

On the desk downstairs.

Now, over here --

You have to identify yourself
For the court.

Oh, for crying out --

Lieutenant provenza,
Priority homicide.

Now, record all this here too.

You can see what might be blood
All over the floor.

We think that whoever
Killed the wallaces

Came up here
And took a shower after.

Hello, there.

I'm lieutenant michael tao,

Priority homicide division
Of the los angeles police.

Now, if you'll come with me.

I found these clothes
In the washer.

They have a red substance
On them, perhaps blood.

Um, this way.

It's also worth noting that
The victims' 17-year-old son,

Eric dean wallace,
Is not home at 4:33 a.M.

And his room
Has not been touched,

Despite having a lot of high-end
Merchandise lying around.

Oh, and the shoes from
The washer are the same size

As the shoes on this floor,
Right here.

[ cell phone ringing ]

Buzz, downstairs. Out.

[ ringing continues ]

Backup. Now.

[ indistinct shouting ]

Man:
Get down on your stomach!

Man: don't move, guys.
Back. Back. Back.

Please. Please. Please.

Please.

Get up.

What's your name?

I'm eric dean wallace.

I want to
See my mom and dad.

I want to see them,
Please.

I understand that, honey.

That's just not
A good idea right now, okay?

Can you tell me
When all this happened?

I woke up,
And I was going downstairs

To get a drink of water.

And...
I got to the stairs.

Mm-hmm?

Jenny --
She was just lying there.

Was there anyone visiting
Your house this evening?

No.

Did you hear a doorbell
Or a knock or --

No.

Do you know anyone who might
Want to hurt your family?

My dad works
With some convicts.

Mm-hmm?

He works for the federal prison
Up terminal island

And the one
Up at lompoc, too.

He's --
He's a sociologist.

Okay.

Okay, sweetheart.

[ sniffles ]

Okay, now.

All right, then.

They're gonna treat you
For shock, okay?

They're gonna take
Good care of you, okay?

All right.
Bless your heart.

Okay.

Sergeant gabriel here
Is gonna ride with you

To the hospital.

- I'll go with him, chief.
- no, you won't, lieutenant.

Detective sanchez.

That boy had pupils
The size of saucers.

I'd like you to get a warrant
So we can check his blood

For drugs when he gets
To the hospital, please.

Thank you.

And lieutenant flynn. Since you
Seem to be in the mood,

I'd like you to get
The patrol officers

Who said
This house was cleared.

Give 'em a piece of my mind.
Okay?

- you got it.
- thank you.

Richard braganza...Em, please
Supervise the search warrant.

The killer was looking for
Something. Maybe he didn't find.

Thank you.

Hey, don't forget
You have a meeting

With chief pope
At 10:00 a.M.

Oh, for heaven sakes.

Do you have any idea
What that's all about?

Shoot!

Pope:
And no more overtime.

How can there be
No overtime?

What if my victims
Don't die

Between 8:00 and 4:00
In the afternoon?

Look, it's just
A little approval process

We're implementing during
This time of financial crisis,

Which was created by the state
Of california, not by me.

Is that why my request for
Expedited blood work was denied?

What blood work?

I have a boy in the hospital,
Eric wallace,

And early this morning,

His entire family was found
Stabbed to death in their house,

And the boy, up in the attic,
High as a kite.

Obtain search warrant
And draw the boy's blood.

We did that, will.

And now detective sanchez
Tells me --

Because it would cost
An extra dollar or something --

That my request to test
The boy's blood for intoxicants

Was denied.

It's not denied.
It's delayed.

You'll have
The results tomorrow morning.

Tomorrow, that boy can have
An attorney appointed for him

By children's services.

I need that blood work,
Right now.

Consider just for a moment

A universe
In which you work for me

And what I need
Is important, too.

I'll do that
After you consider

Getting out of bed
At 3:00 in the morning

And examining
A 12-year-old girl

Who's been
Stabbed through the heart.

What about her needs, will.
What about that.

Look,
I know this is hard,

But so is losing 6%
Of our budget

And simultaneously beefing up
Our counterterrorism bureau.

It's not just, uh,
Halting expedited blood work.

Every section has to lose
At least one detective.

You don't mean mine.

Yes, I do mean yours, brenda.
Every section.

Who would I let go?

Come on. You know
As well as I do.

No.

Last month, provenza left his
Gun in his desk, which allowed--

Lieutenant provenza
Was cleared of--

No, he was not cleared.

Hey, we have all
Left our guns.

Yours is in your drawer
Right now.

Okay?

Mm-hmm.

Listen, I can't
Find the savings I need,

Except by losing
And/or transferring personnel.

You must -- must --
Send someone from your team

To counterterrorism
Or talk provenza into retiring.

Which is the better solution?
It's obvious.

What do I have to do
To make you agree with me?

Stop being wrong.

Look, I'll pay for
The expedited blood work myself,

But my team stays put.

No, brenda, no deal.

I'll find the savings
Some other way.

Yeah,
Good luck with that.

Thank you.

The only other thing
I found at the house,

Other than
Eric's drug stash here,

Was that the garage door
Was open

And the wallaces' vehicle
Had been broken into.

Uh...Okay.

So, the killer was looking
For something specific.

It may have belonged
To mr. Wallace,

But we don't
Know what it was.

Um, lieutenant tao,

How are we doing
With our murder weapon?

Tao: oh, um...

Wiped clean.
No prints.

Preliminary time of death
For all victims

Between 11:00 and 12:45.

And I sent the bloody clothes
From the washing machine

To the lab for testing.

Detective daniels,
Cell phones, laptops?

All accounted for.

Okay. Lieutenant flynn?

You really want background
On this family? Why?

The weapon came
From inside.

Every door was bolted.
Every window was locked.

Okay, so maybe the murders
Weren't premeditated.

But the son did it.
We all know that the son did it.

Daniels: and eric
Lied about his father, too.

Wallace didn't work
At either

The federal prison on terminal
Island, nor up in lompoc.

Why would eric lie
About where his father worked?

The kid was on "X."

Oh, and you owe me $150
For this expedited blood work.

Eric is sedated.

But this, uh,
Bitch-y e.R. Nurse

Got all whacked out
Over eric maybe being a killer

And how the hospital
Is not a detention center.

So now they won't hold him
After he comes to.

I mean,
You got maybe five hours.

This is your receipt.

Okay, five hours.

Okay, um...
Lieutenant tao,

If you could
Please get phone dumps

For the wallaces' cell phones
And landlines.

Thank you.

And, lieutenant flynn,
If you could

Take our murder weapon
Over to the morgue

And have dr. Crippen match it
Against the wounds.

Detective daniels, follow up
On that terminal island

And lompoc connection,
Please.

If mr. Wallace
Didn't work there,

He might be on
The prisons' visitors lists.

Okay, lieutenant provenza,
If you could please

Gather everyone's reports

And bring them over to me
At the hospital.

Thank you.

Oh and eh...Since it's saturday
Em, if ya'll could

Sign out when you leave,
Starting with detective sanchez,

As we have to pinch those
Pennies where we can.

Thank you.

What in the hell
Is wrong with you?

Do you not understand
Budget cuts?

What budget cuts?

Memo's on your desk.

Every department's losing
A detective.

And flynn's acting like
He wants to be the short straw.

I'm not the one
Eligible for retirement here.

Okay, okay,
Let's get on with it.

Time is money, folks.

Time is money.

Hey, are you comin' to look
At these open houses...

Shh!

...Or not?

I know that the prisons
Are federal property,

But they should at least

Let us look at
Their visitors lists.

Uh, well,
All right, detective,

Maybe I can get the fbi to
Hurry those lists along for us.

All right, then.

Thank you. Bye.

[ telephone beeps ]

So...

I have this murder suspect...

[ groans ]

...Telling me that his father
Works at the federal prisons

In terminal island
And up at lompoc.

But both prisons say they never
Heard of the father at all.

Looks bad for the son.

And in order to examine
The prisons' visitors lists,

We have to put together
Individual warrants.

However, if a very special
Agent of the fbi

Were to call and ask --

No problem.

All you have to do

Is fill out these forms
Requesting our assistance,

And I can hand it in
To our office on monday.

Couldn't
You just call and --

That was on my desk
All day friday.

[ chuckles ]

Yeah, people kept stopping by,
Bursting out laughing.

Isn't that hilarious?

This thing is just --
It's awful.

But what happened
At my work today?

Pope announced cutbacks,
Including, like, in personnel.

Oh.

And he took away
Our overtime.

Well, that's nuts.

What if people get
Murdered at night?

Exactly.

And all this paperwork,

Honey, it will take hours
To fill out.

Yeah, you're right.

So, are you coming
With me today or not?

Oh, I-I have to put that off
At least until tomorrow,

Because --

Hey! Hey!

Wait a minute.

You are being completely
Unfair about this.

I have a murder
To investigate.

You always have a murder.

And, you know,
I like this house.

It's comfortable.
It's done.

You are
Always rushing me.

How many times do I have
To win this argument?

There's no place
For my stuff here

Or to set up an office

Or to have overnight guests,
Like our parents.

We can't have my father
Come here anyway.

We haven't figured out a way
To explain that you've moved in.

Well, I haven't
Moved in, now, have I?

Almost everything I own
Is still in the garage!

Now, do you want the visitors
Lists to the prisons

At lompoc and terminal island
Or not?

Are you telling me
That you're refusing to help me

With my murder investigation

Because I can't go
House hunting with you today?

Yeah, good. I don't have
To explain it to you.

Well, I refuse to stand here
And haggle with you

As if we're trading trinkets
In some bazaar.

Good. Bye.

If I see something I like,
I'll take pictures.

[ door closes ]

[ chuckles ]

Gabriel: because mr. Wallace
Was an orphan.

How can people be orphans?

She's mad because
Eric's father had no parents.

His mother was an only child,
Parents deceased,

So we have no relative
To release the kid to.

[ coffee machine buzzes ]
Oh!

Considering how the kid
Treats his next of kin,

It's probably best.

I have some --
Chief, chief, please.

Please. Here. Let me.

Anyway, unless eric
Turns out to be suicidal,

Which is highly unlikely
Based upon the way he just ate,

The hospital says
We have to arrest him,

Or they're gonna release him
To child protective services,

Which takes him
Out of our custody.

I don't have enough evidence yet
To book him for murder.

We have him
On drug possession.

No. Arrest, lawyer,
The end.

Hmm.

So I need a suicide watch
Or a confession.

[ sighs ]

I know mr. Wallace
Didn't work in prisons.

I can't find anything here
About how he made his income.

No, it's all small amounts

From articles he published
In academic journals.

Here you go, chief.

Mrs. Wallace was the one
With the money.

Here, listen to this.

She, uh, pulled in
$900,000 a year

On her mutual funds,
Tax-free.

Plus, she had dividends

Off $30 million
Worth of oil stock.

Hmm. Now,
This is a tough one.

Guess who the wallaces'
Beneficiaries are.

Their children.

Recently reduced to one.

Thank you, lieutenant.

You can take
The rest of the night off.

Well, I-I signed out
When I left the office.

You know, I've never
Been a clock watcher.

That's enough for now.
Thanks.

So, wish me luck.

[ sighs ]

Budget cuts.

Thanks, guys.

In fact, pope says

If I can't find some way
To save money, I'll --

If you can't find
Some way to save money, what?

Lieutenant provenza
May have to retire.

Testing. 1, 2, 3.
Testing.

Brenda: testing. 1, 2, 3.
Testing.

I woke up.

My throat was really dry,

So I started to go downstairs
To get some water.

And you saw
Your sister's body?

Yes, I found
My little sister, jenny.

Okay. So you walked
Out of your room.

And I yelled
For my parents.

And no one answered,

So I ran up to my room
And called 911,

Then I climbed
Into the attic.

Did you hear
The police arrive?

There were no sirens
Or anything.

I heard noises later.
I didn't know who it was.

I couldn't move.

And you have no idea how
The killer or killers entered?

No.

What they might have
Been looking for?

No.

Or what time
This all happened?

I guess I must have
Just slept through it.

See, eric, I just --
I find that so hard to believe.

[ sighs ]

Why?

I'll show you.

[ screaming loudly ]

Outside! Outside now!

[ screaming continues ]

No!

Stop.

Ahhhhh!

[ exhales deeply ]

[ sighs ]

That is the mixture
Of sounds

That the human body makes

When someone
Shoves a knife in it.

That's the sound
That your parents made

When they were being
Stabbed to death.

That's the sound
That jenny heard

That made her
Race downstairs,

Just like everyone
Rushed in here right now.

That's the sound
That jenny made

Until the killer
Stabbed her in the throat

10 feet from the door
Of your room,

Which is why I find it
So hard to believe

That you slept through it all,
Especially since --

Especially since
You were high on mdma,

Also known as ecstasy,
Which is the drug

Hospital tests confirmed were
In your bloodstream last night.

"X" is kind of speedy.
It keeps you awake.

Brenda: so, eric,
When I find a high teenage boy

In the attic of his house

And his entire family's
Been stabbed to death downstairs

And that boy lies to be about,
Well, everything,

I think, "Maybe I should
Just arrest him for murder

And call it a day."

No, but I didn't do it.

Okay, I wouldn't have.
I couldn't do it.

All right, then,
Let's start over again,

You can tell me the truth this
Time.

Were you on drugs
Last night?

Yes, I was high,
Okay, but I wasn't at home.

Where were you, then?

I snuck out.

There's a ladder
In the attic

That I use to get downstairs
Without my parents knowing.

Wait a minute --
Are you telling me

You left a window
To your bedroom unlocked

And a ladder
Leaning against the house?

No.

No, okay?

I lay the ladder down
Where it can't be seen,

And I pull it back up
When I get home.

It's what I always do.

It's what you always do?

How long
Have you been sneaking out?

Just the last two months.

And who are you sneaking out
To see, high on ecstasy?

I need a name now.

Eric dean wallace,
You are under arrest--

No, no, just wait,
Just wait.

Who picks you up?

Okay. Justin darcy.
Justin picks me up.

Who is justin darcy?

He's my math tutor.

Why does justin
Pick you up?

'cause we went
To a club...Dancing,

And then we went back
To his apartment.

To study math on "X"?

Did your father find out

You were sneaking out
And who you were with?

Is that what happened,
Eric?

Was your dad waiting up for you?
Did you two fight?

No. Okay? No, they never knew.
Just please --

Did justin know that the window
To your bedroom was unlocked?

Did he go back?

No, I was with him
The whole time.

Where did
Your father work?

I told you.
He works for the prison.

We have contacted
Both those prisons,

And neither of them have
Ever heard of your father.

No.

No, no, but he works there.
Ask dr. Reichter.

Who's dr. Reichter?

He's a psychologist.
He works with prisoners, okay?

Him and my dad,
They write articles together.

Ask dr. Reichter.

Okay, let's call him.
What's his number?

I don't know.
I don't have it.

I just heard his name
Said a lot.

I'm telling the truth, okay?
I swear it.

You swear it?!

Well, you're such
An honest young man.

Why would anyone
Doubt you?

I'm sorry, okay?

I'm sorry.
You're sorry?

You've already admitted
To leaving your house unsecured.

That makes you
Partially responsible

For the murder
Of your family,

Even if you didn't
Kill them yourself.

You lied to me
About where you were

During the time
Of the murder,

And all you got
Is, "I'm sorry"?

What do you
Want me to say?!

Do you think "I'm sorry"
Will bring your mother back?

What can
I say to change --

You can't change things now!

No! I wish I was dead!

Okay?! Does that help?!
I wish I was dead.

I wish whoever
Killed my family killed me!

Okay, I wish I was dead!

Uhhh!

[ groans ]

Those are the magic words.

Suicide watch.

72-hour surveillance.

First thing tomorrow, I want
To interview this justin darcy.

I want that ladder
Checked for prints.

And I want to talk
To dr. Reichter.

Yeah, well,
Tomorrow is sunday.

There's no overtime.

It can't be helped.

[ sighs ]

I'm gonna get the doctor in
To see him.

Eric: I'm sorry, mom.

I'm sorry, mom.
I'm sorry, jenny.

So in several of his articles
About prison life,

Mr. Wallace quotes
A dr. Robert reichter.

And so I called the prison
At terminal island and lompoc,

And reichter's a psychologist
At both facilities.

Lives in lompoc,
But he's off this weekend.

Well, can't we call him?

Wouldn't they give you
His home number?

Not over the phone,
He's a federal prison employee.

I couldn't even get his driver's
License on the master search.

All right. Um...

What about the ladder at
The wallaces' house?

Oh. I got
Three sets of prints.

One's eric's,
One's his father's,

One, we couldn't identify.

An it through afis, no hit.

Could have been a gardner
Of something. Or...

It could be our friend
Justin darcy.

He's in the interview room
Right now

With flynn and sanchez.

So wallace didn't work
At the prisons themselves,

But maybe he did work with
The prison employees?

All right,
Thank you, doctor.

Okay. So, the suicide watch
From last night is official

And the doctor says
He can keep eric sedated

Unless you wanna
Talk to him or...

Suicide watch?

Hi, everybody.

Eric wallace said
He wished he was dead.

Do you want me to hold
A suicidal teenager here?

Of course, not.
You to arrest the kid,

Put him in custody of
Sheriff's department

And let them pay
For the suicide watch.

If I arrest him, will,
He'll get an attorney.

Don't you want me
To get a confession?

You have a strong
Circumstantial case.

But I still have
A lot of questions.

Why does eric insist that his
Father works at prisons?

Why were the rooms
In the house tossed,

But nothing stolen?

And what about...The
Clothes in the washer?

And there's a prison
Psychologist

And the feds
Won't give me his number.

And I need to talk to him
Real bad.

Do you have a motive?

Wallace may have
Discovered that

His son was slippin' out
To meet a boyfriend.

Arguments about such things
Have a way of escalating

And eric was to inherit
Millions of dollars.

So, motive means opportunity,
Suspect.

Is it really necessary to
Call in everyone on earth

On sunday
To tie up the loose ends?

I don't have
Everyone on earth here.

I have no civilian assistance
At all.

Hey, chief...
Sorry.

Um...Lieutenant flynn wanted me
To tell you

That he just mirandized
The justin darcy guy on tape.

Okay. Thank you, buzz.
I'll be there in a minute.

Welcome.

Really?
No civilians at all?

You know, if you are this
Worried about money,

You what is really cheap?

Not solvin' the crime.

What were you doing here,
Anyway?

Don't you spend sunday
With your kids?

They're with their mother.

Estelle takes them
To theme parks.

I get to turn of the tv,

Make them eat their vegetables
And put them to bed.

Guess who they prefer
Spending time with.

What all that means is,
That I already understand

How hard it is
To split up a family.

And since you don't seem
To be taking me seriously,

Let me remind you that
Tomorrow, I need

The name of the detective
You're releasing from the squad.

No. No, no.

I'm actively looking
For the money we need to save.

Yeah, but you're actively
Searching for it

At time and a half.

Look, here's the solution.

Provenza retires.

Or you send someone
To counterterrorism...

Tomorrow.

Good morning, mr. Darcy.

I'm deputy chief
Brenda leigh johnson, lapd,

And I have brought you in
This morning to talk about rape.

No, I haven't raped
Anyone ever.

I have a statement

Alleging sexual assault
From your victim.

Do you know
How stupid that is?

I think I should get my one
Phone call and talk to my dad.

He's a criminal attorney,
Okay?

So I think I know a bit more
About the justice system

Than the average person
You drag in here.

Lieutenant flynn,

Would you please
Hand mr. Darcy your phone?

As I'm sure you're aware,
Mr. Darcy,

Given your vast knowledge
Of the law,

That the age of consent
For male-male sex

In the state of california
Is 18.

I'm 19 in 2 months.

Many happy returns.

Eric wallace,

The boy whom you are
Currently tutoring, is 17.

Make sure
To tell your father

That the charges against you
Will include

But will not
Necessarily be limited to

Statutory rape
And sex with a minor.

I look forward
To meeting your family.

I can only imagine
How proud they'll be.

Hey, I'll dial your dad.
What's the number?

Wait. Okay.

Wait. No,
I never had sex with eric.

If that's true,
We'll be arresting

Your underage boyfriend
For the murder of his family.

What?

The night before last,
Eric's parents and his sister

Were found stabbed to death
In their home.

Oh, my god.

Eric gave a statement
Saying that he was with you

During the time of the murder,
Dancing and carrying on,

And I don't know
What all.

So who's the liar --
You or eric?

So what you're saying
Is either I'm a sex offender...

I think I found what
The murderer was looking for.

...Or eric's a killer?

Maybe you picked eric up,
Dropped him off at your place,

Went back, and murdered
His parents yourself.

You knew
There was a window open.

No. Wait. Wait.
No. Okay.

Yes, I picked him up
Friday night.

Yes, okay?

But -- but if his parents died
Before 3:00 in the morning,

He didn't do it,
And neither did I.

Do you have someone
That can back up that story?

Yeah. Yeah.
We met up with some friends

When we went out dancing.

Write it all down --

Everywhere you went,
Everyone you saw --

Name, numbers, times.

Excuse me.

Explain, please.

The wallaces' carrier
Said they had four cell phones.

Daniels
Found this one charging

Behind the wet bar
In the den of their house.

We thought it was
One of the four in the plan.

It turns out it isn't.

Whose is it, then?

Well, it belongs to, uh,
Dr. Robert reichter.

[ inhales deeply ]

Are you telling me
That the wallaces

Had reichter's phone
In their den

And we're just finding out
About this now?

I ordered
The phone dumps last night.

They couldn't
Get it back to us till today,

So I signed out,
Liked you asked,

And I just started
Downloading cells a minute ago.

You don't believe this
Little prick's story, do you?

Please sit with mr. Darcy

Until I'm ready
To speak with him again.

[ door closes ]
Impossible!

[ sighs ]

So, were there any calls

From dr. Reichter's cell
I should know about?

Gabriel:
Yes, ma'am, dr. Reichter

Was calling eric wallace
On a fairly regular basis.

Not the father?

No, ma'am,
He was calling the son.

Eric wallace told me he'd
Never spoken to dr. Reichter,

That...
He had only heard the name.

Okay, just...

Just give me
A second here.

These bad lies
Are confusing me.

We found four cell phones
At the wallaces' house.

Dr. Reichter's was
One of the four phones we found.

So whose phone's missing?

Mr. Wallace's, but we have
The dump off of his number.

Were there any calls made

On dr. Wallace's phone
Since his death?

At around 1:00 a.M.
Saturday morning,

Someone made
15 calls in a row

From mr. Wallace's
Cell phone

To the phone
You're holding in your hand.

Okay, so the killer
Grabbed mr. Wallace's cell phone

And started
Walking around with it,

And calling
Dr. Reichter's cell.

Daniels: hoping reichter's
Cell would ring,

But reichter's phone
Was off.

Charging behind the wet bar
In the den,

Maybe like it was hidden.

So the phone
I'm holding in my hand --

Dr. Reichter's phone --

This is what the killer
Was looking for.

Okay.

There are --
There are no pictures in here,

Only...Six...
Programmed numbers.

Now, why would this phone
Be worth hiding,

And why
Was dr. Reichter's phone

At the wallaces' house
In the first place?

That's the really
Important question,

And we would have known
To ask it yesterday

If it weren't for all
This malarkey about budget cuts.

[ sighs ]

Okay, now I really need
To see those visitors lists

From terminal island
And lompoc.

Chief, I know you're not
Gonna wanna hear this,

But the guy who could help cut
Through some of this red tape--

I know. I know.
I just...

Let's look for
This guy wallace.

Through about...
Six moths back.

Oh! Oh, you're
Dr. Reichter's parents.

Both prisons
Would be great.

Goodness, I don't know
How I could have mixed that up.

Unless he's visiting you.

Thanks.
I owe you a dinner.

Oh! Oh, he's in l.A.

For a week? Right.

Okay. Well, I'm sorry
About that.

Thank you so much
For your help.

All right. Thank you.
Bye.

Okay. So that's dr. Reichter's
Wife, sister, son and parents,

All telling me that
He's in l.A.

At the same quality inn
By the harbor.

Black and white I sent there

Say reichter never checked out,
At least not under his own name.

Daniels dragged
His credit cards,

Dr. Reichter's stopped
Using 'em.

Sorry. I'm sorry.

It's all right.

Well, if there's anyone who
Knows how to manage money

So as not ot get caught
By the police,

It would be a prison shrink.

First thing they hear from
Convicts

After "I'm innocent,"
Is how everyone got caught.

Reichter's probably been told
How to stay off the grid,

How to establish an alias,

How to get overseas
With a lot of cash.

Have you decided how you're
Reconfiguring your squad?

Because...I think
I have an idea

That might be of help.

No, I'm here,
I'm here.

Wallace never visited
Either facility?

Well, uh, thanks
For looking.

Back at ya.

So eric just...Fabricated
His his father's work life.

[ sighs ]

Why don't you give me gabriel?

Excuse me?

And I'll handle all further
Transfers and retirements

That we need to make
Our budget work

From the departments
That report to me.

I'll even share gabriel
With you

On the big cases,
When you need him.

So you're suggesting
That gabriel spend

Part of his time
With you and...

Part of his time
With me?

It's in the kid's
Best interest, chief.

You already have three
Lieutenants in your division.

What chance does gabriel have
For a promotion

Working for you?

I'll...I'll discuss it with him
On my way up to lompoc.

You're going to lompoc now?

I am. And...I appreciate
The suggestion, commander.

Thank you.
Thank you very much.

Happy to help, chief.

No, thank you.
Thank you, sir.

Okay. Lompoc police found
A friendly judge,

And your warrant will be ready
When you arrive.

Okay, thank you.

Um...So, sergeant,
There's this other thing.

Commander taylor
Suggested that

You might want to go back
To work for him.

He thinks it might improve
Your chances of promotion.

In return, he would absorb
All future budget cuts.

And I promised
I'd mention it to you.

Is that...What
You want me to do?

You want me to go back
And work for taylor?

Hardly.

But, um, if you think it's
In your own long-term interest.

Well, I don't know that lapd
Is gonna be my whole career.

In fact, I was thinking maybe
About going into politics.

You're kiddin'.

No, I have a law
Enforcement background

And masters in public
Administration, it's just...

Hey, this, uh, this isn't
The way to lompoc.

No, we're goi''
To the airport.

We're taking
The lapd plane?

I thought you were supposed
To be saving money.

No, sergeant, we're supposed to
Be finding a murderer,

And we are not doin' it
In the carpool lane.

[ tires screech ]

Thanks for the escort
From the airport, captain.

Our pleasure.

We train for this
Kind of thing a lot,

But we don't get to do it
As much as you guys.

You wouldn't know it.
Everyone here looks very sharp.

We'll just fax
That bill down to...
Chief will pope.

I'll give you the number
When we're done here.

Think dr. Reichter's here?

No, sergeant,
Dr. Reichter's dead.

Yes -- oh, my god.

Are you
Miss kathy reichter?

Yes.
What's going on here?

Is there something wrong
With robert?

We're here
To serve a search warrant.

If you could step aside
And move away from the door.

Door on the left.
Close right.

Mom, what's going on?

Two steps back.

Deputy chief johnson, lapd.
And you are?

Kim reichter.

Do you know
Where your father is?

Los angeles
Until wednesday.

When was the last time
You spoke to him?

Friday night. Mom,
What is he doing over there?

Leave those pictures alone!
You can't invade our privacy!

Mom...
But what are they
Looking for?

Mom!
I have a right to know!
Why are you here?

Answer me!
Hey!

Mrs. Reichter,
Meet kevin alan wallace.

Did you know that your husband
Was a bigamist?

It's just...

Hard to take in
Everything.

And, uh, all of
The other family

Was stabbed to death?

Except the son, yes.

Dr. Reichter left lompoc
On friday.

Weren't you worried
When you didn't hear from him?

We're used to
Robert's schedule.

He used to come to terminal
Island here in l.A.

Every other week and...

I'm on nights
At the prison in lompoc.

Did you work on friday?

Yes.

Half of our little
Medical staff was there,

We had a...Lifer
Who has colon cancer.

He was very sick.

Excuse me, are you
Looking for my alibi?

What about your son, kim?

Where was he
On friday?

Wait. Wait, please.

I knew...

About the wallaces...

From the beginning.

I admit,

It sounds complicated,

But...

I was the one
That robert loved,

Not her.

She was just...A
Convenience.

Really?

Well, if she was
Just convenience,

And you knew about her
From the beginning,

I wonder why
You're using pronouns

Instead of her real name,

Unless you don't know it.

Hello.

Hi, so, I come back to see
How things are going here

And I find that, first, you've
Had a boy on suicide watch

Transported to your office
Under medical supervision.

That's another
Billion dollars.

I'm sorry about that,

But I need eric wallace
To identify some things for me.

Then I hear you've
Commandeered the department jet

To go to lompoc.

Because I knew I had to bring
Back passengers and freight.

Freight?

Yes. Clothes,
Financial records, pictures.

So you flew round-trip
To lompoc for scrapbooks?

Here is a picture of
Mr. Wallace, one of our victims.

Okay. So?

And here is a picture
Of dr. Reichter,

The prison psychologist
From lompoc.

Wow. So your murder victim
Was a bigamist?

Yes, and now I need
To speak to his wife and son.

So if you'll excuse me.

Have you talked to provenza
About retirement yet?

No, she hasn't.
Should she?

No, lieutenant, no.

Aren't you supposed to be
In the electronics room?

Have you figured out
What you're gonna do

About...Us?

Sergeant, I've figured out
The crime.

I'm kinda puttin'
Everything else off.

Hey, wait.

If you really don't wanna lose
Lieutenant provenza,

I think you should...
Let me go

And work things out
With chief pope.

Do you mean that,
Sergeant?

I've...I've been
Thinkin' about it.

Yes, ma'am, I'll go
Talk to him about it

When we're through here.

All right, then,
Let's go.

Okay.

Be sure.
This is important.

I am.
These are my clothes.

Okay. Thanks.
I'm sorry.

I know
It was a long way to come

To have your rights
Read to you

And to look through
Your own closet,

Especially after
What happened to your father.

But this was
Absolutely necessary

To figure out
Who killed your father.

Thanks.

Watch it.

Look,
I did not kill my family!

Okay, fine.
Then help me for once.

Why should I?
You don't believe me!

And who's gonna help me?!

Who's gonna help me?!

What am I gonna do?!
I have no one left!

I don't know
How you're gonna feel about it,

But that's
Not exactly true.

Now, I've got
Two more questions for you,

And if you tell me the truth,
Then you and I are done.

Fine.

Okay, first,
Did your father call you a lot

When he was up at lompoc?

Almost every day.

Okay, and do you think
That any of the clothes

On this rack might be yours?

[ sniffs ]

These are my shoes.
I changed the laces in them.

This is my shirt.

It's got a tag from
Our dry cleaners on the collar.

These jeans. Yeah.

I put this hole in there
Myself.

Thank you, eric.

Yeah.

Would you get my bag, please?
Thank you.

And now, uh...

Detective daniels here

Has some information
We'd like to share with you.

Information like what?

Information about your dad.

Why don't you
Have a seat?

Thank you, detective.

And that will be all,
Gentlemen.

Thanks.

I don't want
To bother you again, kim,

But you identified
These clothes

That I brought in earlier
As yours --

This shirt and these pants
And these shoes.

And they're so much nicer
Than your other clothes,

So I checked
With your half brother, eric,

And he says they're his.

And I kind of believe him.

Now, I don't know
If you know this, kim,

But I can actually tell
From these clothes

And from the wounds
In the body,

The order in which
You murdered your father

And his wife
And your half sister, jenny.

Because the weapon that
You used -- the letter opener --

Actually degraded
As you went along.

So, first,
You attacked your father.

And then his wife

Heard him screaming
Or was there.

You fought with her.

Then you stabbed her
To death

And then went back
And finished with your dad.

Jenny ran down
To see what was the matter.

You chased her
Back upstairs...

Stabbed her to death,
Too.

These are your clothes,

Which you put in the washer
While you showered,

But you looked for
Your father's cell phone
First.

So the stains set in,

And it's no good driving around
In bloody clothes, is it?

Someone might notice.

So you stole these clothes
From eric's closet.

And it's not surprising
That they fit.

You are brothers,
After all.

These are the fingerprints
That we found

On the ladder that you used
To enter the house.

Now we haven't
Identified them yet, kim,

But when we do,
I bet they match your hand.

And somewhere, you stopped
To fill up your car.

And I'm gonna
Check the surveillance cameras

Of every gas station
Along the way,

And I'm gonna find you,
Kim,

Somewhere along the road
Between here and lompoc.

I can promise you that.

Now, all we have left
To decide, really --

And this is only
If you want to help me --

Is if you planned on killing
Your father and his family,

Or if it was more of
A spur-of-the-moment type thing,

Stabbing your father
And his wife.

Let's get
One thing straight.

That other woman
Wasn't my father's wife, okay?

Okay.

My mother was his wife,
Not her.

Okay.

And I never
Meant to kill anyone.

Okay.

How did that happen,
Then?

My father loaned me his car
While mine was in the shop.

And I bought some pot,
Okay?

[ breathing heavily ]

And I was hiding it
To take home

In case I got stopped
By the police.

And there's a zipper
In the upholstery

Of the driver's seat
Of my dad's car.

And I pulled it open,
And it all just...

Fell into my hands.

His other driver's license,
His other cell phone,

His other credit cards,
His other...

...Life.

And I couldn't
Stop thinking about it.

I couldn't.

So you went
To the other address

On your father's
Fake license.

And there they all were...

In their big house

With their swimming pool
And their fancy cars.

And I tried to stop going.

But I couldn't.

I just kept
Going back there every day,

And I would just watch them
Come and go

With all their friends
And stuff.

And I saw eric sneaking out
Of his bedroom window.

My father would have killed me
If I had done that.

So that night,
When he went out,

You just
Wanted to see his room.

Is that right?

I don't know what happened.

I couldn't stop myself.

I didn't know that going
In there would make me so...

So mad.

Two laptops, cable in his room,
Tivo, video ipods --

We didn't have
Any of that stuff!

And I was standing there,

And I saw that picture
Of my father and him,

Some place --
I think hawaii, maybe --

And the next thing I know,
I was downstairs,

And I was yelling
At my dad.

And that woman came in,
And I told her who I was,

And he said,
"Don't listen to this kid."

"He's a convict
I work with in lompoc."

"He's a convict
I work with..."

That's what my father
Called me.

So I picked up
That little sword on his desk,

That fancy letter opener
Or whatever it was,

And I stabbed him
With it.

And the rest
Happened like you said.

You broke into
Your father's car?

Yeah.

I couldn't find
Where he kept the keys to it.

I got his real driver's license
Out of the seat,

His credit cards
And I thought...

"Well, I never knew
He was two people.

Maybe no one else
Would find out."

Except, I couldn't find
His stupid cell phone.

So I left with what I had

And I threw it in the ocean
On my way home.

Why did you
Keep eric's clothes?

They're nice.

His stuff is nice.

I'm sorry about the girl.

She came downstairs
And saw me.

I am so sorry about her.

[ sobbing ]

Gabriel: so, on paper,
You transfer everyone

From priority homicide
To the counterterrorism bureau.

Whoa, you guys don't have
The mandated training for that.

Well, see, sir,
That's the best part.

The federal government
Will actually pay you

To bring us up to code,
Thousands of dollars per person

Which you could add
To your budget shortfalls.

Well...That's...

That's fantastic.

So, officially,
You would all be transferred

To the
Counterterrorism bureau,

Which would satisfy the state,
But in actuality,

I could just loan you
Right back to priority homicide.

Exactly, 'cause you only
Need more people

In counterterrorism
When the threat level goes up.

If you were to transfer
Them there permanently --

I'm paying people to stand
Around most of the time.

Yeah, I hate that.

You know, sergeant,
For bureaucrats,

This plan of yours
Is the equivalent

Of turning water
Into wine.

My only question is,
Why are you here suggesting it,

Instead of chief johnson?

Uh, well, sir,

I thought
She might like this idea better

If she thought it was --

My idea.

Uh-huh, well, I see
You've worked out every detail,

Including
Who she's going to blame.

That's real genius.

All right,
Say I do this...

Your chief is still spending
Like a mad woman.

Now it's not good for
One division to have everything

While everyone else
Is cutting back.

I completely agree, sir,
And I will do

Everything I can to reminder her
Of that along the way

Hmm.

[ inhales deeply ]

It's very impressive,
Sergeant.

It's, uh...
Really, it's very impressive.

Thank you, sir.
Thank you so much.

Thank you.

I'll just...

Yeah, I'll
Hang on to this.

Thank you, sir.

Hey.

What?

[ gasps ]

Oh.

[ cat meows ]

Hey.

Brenda: hey.

You brought in all your stuff
From the garage.

I did.

Come see.

Come see.

There's a barbecue
In the bathroom.

Uh, honey,
Do you think that my books

Will look better
If I put the shelving up

Around the ceiling in here,
Or should I try the kitchen?

Actually,
Don't go in there yet.

That room's
Still a little crowded.

Okay.

Okay. Okay.

Okay, you win.

I think we should put
This little house on the market

And find someplace else
To live.

You sure?

I only want to do this
If you're ready to move on.

Well, I -- honestly,
I do hate change a lot.

Change is --
It's just -- it's bad.

But?

But, um...

...But I think it's important,
In a relationship like ours,

To keep all of our stuff
In one place.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

[ chuckles ]

Do I have to help you
Put all this stuff back?

Oh, yeah.
Oh, absolutely.

Ah, maybe not tonight.
