[tense music]
3
00:00:15,724 --> 00:00:18,059
- This wasn't suicide,
at least not
4
00:00:18,101 --> 00:00:19,519
in my professional opinion.
5
00:00:19,561 --> 00:00:22,188
The bomber's handwriting
on the suicide note
6
00:00:22,230 --> 00:00:24,024
isn't consistent
with his old journals.
7
00:00:24,065 --> 00:00:26,192
Even his signature is off.
8
00:00:26,234 --> 00:00:30,363
Intense stress creates
stroke impulses,
9
00:00:30,405 --> 00:00:32,032
jerking movements when writing.
10
00:00:32,073 --> 00:00:33,616
This note is full of them.
11
00:00:33,658 --> 00:00:35,201
- You think
he was under duress?
12
00:00:35,243 --> 00:00:36,953
- This man wasn't
looking to end his life.
13
00:00:36,995 --> 00:00:38,121
He was forced into the noose.
14
00:00:38,163 --> 00:00:39,748
- He did kill 13 people.
15
00:00:39,789 --> 00:00:41,374
That's a lot of guilt
on his shoulders.
16
00:00:41,416 --> 00:00:43,084
- He bombed
that church 20 years ago.
17
00:00:43,126 --> 00:00:46,713
The concept of habituation
says most emotions dissipate
18
00:00:46,755 --> 00:00:49,382
over time, meaning if
guilt was the driving
19
00:00:49,424 --> 00:00:51,092
factor in him taking his life,
20
00:00:51,134 --> 00:00:52,218
he would have done it
back then.
21
00:00:52,260 --> 00:00:53,928
- Maybe he got
when we were coming.
22
00:00:53,970 --> 00:00:55,930
Suicide made more sense
than going through a trial
23
00:00:55,972 --> 00:00:57,057
and facing life in a cell.
24
00:00:57,098 --> 00:00:59,100
- Look at this.
25
00:00:59,142 --> 00:01:02,187
One of the chairs
has a scuff mark on it,
26
00:01:02,228 --> 00:01:03,688
a small chip at the bottom.
27
00:01:03,730 --> 00:01:05,940
We didn't see it at the scene,
but someone kicked
28
00:01:05,982 --> 00:01:07,442
that chair out from under him.
29
00:01:07,484 --> 00:01:08,985
- Looks like murder to me too.
30
00:01:09,027 --> 00:01:10,820
- Which leads to our
third man, the same person
31
00:01:10,862 --> 00:01:13,573
who intimidated Wes Banning
in the parole hearing.
32
00:01:13,615 --> 00:01:15,075
- Now he's tying up loose ends.
33
00:01:15,116 --> 00:01:16,242
- OK, we press it as a murder.
34
00:01:16,284 --> 00:01:17,285
What next?
35
00:01:17,327 --> 00:01:18,870
- We talk to his mom.
36
00:01:18,912 --> 00:01:20,288
He was living with her
when he bombed the church.
37
00:01:20,330 --> 00:01:21,915
If someone wanted
to kill her son,
38
00:01:21,956 --> 00:01:23,667
maybe she points us
in the right direction.
39
00:01:23,708 --> 00:01:25,251
- Great.
I should look at her file.
40
00:01:25,293 --> 00:01:27,587
We can figure out an approach.
41
00:01:27,629 --> 00:01:30,715
- You can't be involved,
not anymore.
42
00:01:30,757 --> 00:01:32,300
- What do you mean?
43
00:01:32,342 --> 00:01:34,928
- He's a suspect in a bombing
where you were a victim.
44
00:01:34,969 --> 00:01:37,347
Technically you had motive
to kill the bomber.
45
00:01:37,389 --> 00:01:40,100
I know that you wouldn't,
but it's optics.
46
00:01:40,141 --> 00:01:41,768
- Was this his idea?
47
00:01:41,810 --> 00:01:43,228
- This is the first
I'm hearing of it.
48
00:01:43,269 --> 00:01:44,562
- Alec, please.
49
00:01:44,604 --> 00:01:47,273
If this case
isn't 100% above board,
50
00:01:47,315 --> 00:01:50,860
the entire investigation
is compromised.
51
00:01:50,902 --> 00:01:52,779
- Understood.
52
00:01:54,572 --> 00:01:56,658
- We'll let you know
what we find.
53
00:01:56,700 --> 00:01:58,827
- Mm-hmm.
54
00:02:00,870 --> 00:02:04,958
- A wrongful death civil trial
is underway in D.C. six months
55
00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:07,961
after three out of four
members of a tactical unit
56
00:02:08,003 --> 00:02:12,090
known as the VIPER Squad shot
and killed Joshua Hill-Jones,
57
00:02:12,132 --> 00:02:15,802
a local building inspector,
in a police raid gone wrong.
58
00:02:15,844 --> 00:02:19,222
His husband Mason rejected
the city's settlement offer,
59
00:02:19,264 --> 00:02:20,724
and now he's
taking the district
60
00:02:20,765 --> 00:02:23,935
and officers that gunned
down his partner to court.
61
00:02:23,977 --> 00:02:25,186
- I could have sworn there was
a gallon of milk
62
00:02:25,228 --> 00:02:26,646
in here last night.
63
00:02:26,688 --> 00:02:30,358
- I grabbed it in case
I needed to rinse my eyes out.
64
00:02:32,902 --> 00:02:35,196
Did someone forget I was
protesting last night
65
00:02:35,238 --> 00:02:36,990
outside that courtroom?
66
00:02:37,032 --> 00:02:39,367
It was cloudy with a chance
of cops using tear gas.
67
00:02:39,409 --> 00:02:40,368
- Did they?
68
00:02:40,410 --> 00:02:42,746
- No, not yet.
69
00:02:42,787 --> 00:02:44,497
But I got to stay ready.
70
00:02:44,539 --> 00:02:45,832
- I'd stay away
from that coverage.
71
00:02:45,874 --> 00:02:47,667
It's only going
to make you angry.
72
00:02:47,709 --> 00:02:50,337
- Too late.
73
00:02:50,378 --> 00:02:52,213
You know, I don't
get how you always be
74
00:02:52,255 --> 00:02:53,840
so academic about this stuff.
75
00:02:53,882 --> 00:02:55,216
- Come on, Kylie.
76
00:02:55,258 --> 00:02:57,010
You don't think
I get furious, sad?
77
00:02:57,052 --> 00:02:58,887
This keeps happening to us,
to your close friend.
78
00:02:58,928 --> 00:03:01,348
But somebody
got to be the cooler head.
79
00:03:01,389 --> 00:03:03,099
How is Mason?
80
00:03:03,141 --> 00:03:04,309
- Police killed his husband.
81
00:03:04,351 --> 00:03:05,477
He's not great.
82
00:03:06,895 --> 00:03:10,732
- Mm.
83
00:03:10,774 --> 00:03:12,650
- I'm sorry.
84
00:03:12,692 --> 00:03:15,362
Mason shouldn't be
grieving his husband.
85
00:03:15,403 --> 00:03:17,113
When we were at Hampton,
Mason was
86
00:03:17,155 --> 00:03:19,157
the life of our marching band.
87
00:03:19,199 --> 00:03:21,493
And he got me through a lot
when you were in the hospital,
88
00:03:21,534 --> 00:03:22,869
so I got to be there for him.
89
00:03:22,911 --> 00:03:25,330
But it's not
looking good, Alec.
90
00:03:25,372 --> 00:03:27,874
His expert witness
bailed on him last minute.
91
00:03:27,916 --> 00:03:29,626
- Expert in name only.
92
00:03:29,668 --> 00:03:32,379
- Look, I know you detest the
whole expert witness racket,
93
00:03:32,420 --> 00:03:35,548
but Mason
won't win without one.
94
00:03:35,590 --> 00:03:38,343
We both know it can
help sway a jury.
95
00:03:38,385 --> 00:03:40,595
Mason says
that they got a long list
96
00:03:40,637 --> 00:03:43,390
of potential psychologists.
97
00:03:43,431 --> 00:03:46,226
Could you at least
help Mason vet them?
98
00:03:46,267 --> 00:03:48,520
- That's not really a request,
is it?
99
00:03:48,561 --> 00:03:52,357
- Mason is taking on the
entire District of Columbia.
100
00:03:52,399 --> 00:03:53,942
I know you won't sit that out.
101
00:03:59,656 --> 00:04:03,576
- I appreciate you helping
us out like this, Alec.
102
00:04:03,618 --> 00:04:07,539
Losing our expert
has been a bit overwhelming.
103
00:04:07,580 --> 00:04:08,957
- I'll do what I can.
104
00:04:08,998 --> 00:04:11,584
But expert testimony
in officer-involved
105
00:04:11,626 --> 00:04:15,046
shootings is 90% snake oil--
106
00:04:15,088 --> 00:04:19,426
paid actors who use science
to play on jurors' emotions.
107
00:04:19,467 --> 00:04:22,429
- But we still need one
on our side.
108
00:04:22,470 --> 00:04:26,474
There's a list
of potential experts.
109
00:04:29,728 --> 00:04:31,646
- I'd scrap these first three.
110
00:04:31,688 --> 00:04:34,274
They testified for both
sides, and any good defense
111
00:04:34,315 --> 00:04:35,775
lawyer will pick them apart.
112
00:04:35,817 --> 00:04:38,570
These last five
are all convincing,
113
00:04:38,611 --> 00:04:41,322
and they're marginally
more ethical than the rest.
114
00:04:41,364 --> 00:04:42,949
It'll be easier
to recommend one
115
00:04:42,991 --> 00:04:44,826
if I know who
they're up against.
116
00:04:46,411 --> 00:04:48,079
- His name is Dr.--
117
00:04:48,121 --> 00:04:50,707
- Dustin Atwood.
118
00:04:50,749 --> 00:04:53,668
Never met a police shooting
he couldn't justify--
119
00:04:53,710 --> 00:04:57,589
dual PhDs in experimental
psychology and neuroscience,
120
00:04:57,630 --> 00:04:59,674
morals of a jackal.
121
00:04:59,716 --> 00:05:02,677
- Well, our expert said he
bailed for personal reasons.
122
00:05:02,719 --> 00:05:04,346
But I don't think
it's a coincidence this
123
00:05:04,387 --> 00:05:06,306
happened after I told him
Dr. Atwood
124
00:05:06,348 --> 00:05:07,474
was on their witness list.
125
00:05:07,515 --> 00:05:09,017
- He didn't want
to take the loss.
126
00:05:09,059 --> 00:05:11,478
If he's on the stand and you
lose, it hurts his pay quote.
127
00:05:11,519 --> 00:05:15,565
And Atwood's tactics
are nearly unbeatable.
128
00:05:15,607 --> 00:05:16,983
- Why is that?
129
00:05:17,025 --> 00:05:19,319
- Atwood is a master
at cherry-picking
130
00:05:19,361 --> 00:05:22,572
psychological principles
to support cops.
131
00:05:22,614 --> 00:05:25,450
No one on this list
has a chance against him.
132
00:05:26,659 --> 00:05:28,578
- You know anyone
who can beat him?
133
00:05:29,662 --> 00:05:34,292
- Only one person, me.

Hey, it's been a while.
158
00:06:31,057 --> 00:06:32,892
- Dustin, long time.
159
00:06:32,934 --> 00:06:34,561
- Too long.
160
00:06:34,602 --> 00:06:38,273
Well, looks like we
are a pretty big deal.
161
00:06:38,314 --> 00:06:40,692
- I got to say, I'm
surprised to see you here.
162
00:06:40,734 --> 00:06:42,819
You know, I certainly
hope they paid you a fortune,
163
00:06:42,861 --> 00:06:46,239
because taking an L on such a
high-profile trial would not
164
00:06:46,281 --> 00:06:48,074
be good for your future quote.
165

case than my batting average.

But if I get in trouble,
I could do what you do--

twist the science

- Mm.

Could you hold a second?
Hey.
179
00:07:18,480 --> 00:07:19,647
I just got ahold
of the witness list
180
00:07:19,689 --> 00:07:20,732
for the Hill-Jones case.
181
00:07:20,774 --> 00:07:23,443
Joy Reid wants Alec and Atwood.
182
00:07:23,485 --> 00:07:24,986
- That's really exciting.
183
00:07:25,028 --> 00:07:26,571
Only, the professor
said he's not
184
00:07:26,613 --> 00:07:27,989
doing interviews
about this trial,
185
00:07:28,031 --> 00:07:30,658
and he's not giving
Atwood free press.
186
00:07:30,700 --> 00:07:33,161
- But aren't these
cases won in the media?
187
00:07:33,203 --> 00:07:34,579
- It's not my call.
188
00:07:34,621 --> 00:07:35,789
Let him down nicely.
189
00:07:35,830 --> 00:07:37,332
We have work to do.
190
00:07:37,374 --> 00:07:38,917
- [sighs]
191
00:08:00,689 --> 00:08:03,358
- All rise.
192
00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:06,027
Docket number 125432,
193
00:08:06,069 --> 00:08:09,280
Mason Hill-Jones versus
the District of Columbia,
194
00:08:09,322 --> 00:08:11,491
Judge Jane Yuun presiding.
195
00:08:11,533 --> 00:08:15,245
[gavel bangs]
196
00:08:15,286 --> 00:08:16,955
- District Attorney Navarro,
197
00:08:16,996 --> 00:08:20,250
your office requested
the no-knock warrant.
198
00:08:20,291 --> 00:08:22,752
Why was that necessary?
199
00:08:22,794 --> 00:08:25,380
- We received a tip
that an illegal gun dealer
200
00:08:25,422 --> 00:08:27,757
was working out of a house
on the same street
201
00:08:27,799 --> 00:08:29,384
as Mason and Joshua.
202
00:08:29,426 --> 00:08:31,219
I filed for a no-knock warrant.
203
00:08:31,261 --> 00:08:34,222
The VIPER squad was tasked
with a high-risk arrest.
204
00:08:34,264 --> 00:08:36,474
- But they ended up
at the wrong house.
205
00:08:36,516 --> 00:08:37,767
- Correct.
206
00:08:37,809 --> 00:08:39,936
- Why was that?
207
00:08:41,229 --> 00:08:43,857
- There was a typo
on the warrant.
208
00:08:45,358 --> 00:08:49,112
- Judge Haynes,
you signed the warrant?
209
00:08:49,154 --> 00:08:50,363
- Yes.
210
00:08:50,405 --> 00:08:52,907
After reviewing
the warrant from DA Navarro,
211
00:08:52,949 --> 00:08:55,577
I believed a no-knock
raid was necessary given
212
00:08:55,618 --> 00:08:56,786
the target's threat level.
213
00:08:56,828 --> 00:08:58,246
- So how did
the VIPER squad end up
214
00:08:58,288 --> 00:08:59,748
at the plaintiff's house?
215
00:08:59,789 --> 00:09:01,541
- I wish I could tell you.
216
00:09:01,583 --> 00:09:06,129
It appears to have been a very
tragic case of human error.
217
00:09:07,797 --> 00:09:09,507
- Miss Styles,
you're the court clerk
218
00:09:09,549 --> 00:09:11,426
who processed the warrant,
correct?
219
00:09:11,468 --> 00:09:13,011
- Yes.
220
00:09:13,053 --> 00:09:14,846
- Can you explain how
this human error happened?
221
00:09:14,888 --> 00:09:16,973
- Our systems had been down
for over a week,
222
00:09:17,015 --> 00:09:21,102
so we were processing
warrants manually.
223
00:09:21,144 --> 00:09:23,730
I must have made a mistake
when I wrote it up.
224
00:09:23,772 --> 00:09:27,609
- And you were the only one
reprimanded for this incident?
225
00:09:27,650 --> 00:09:30,153
- Yes, I was fired.
226
00:09:30,945 --> 00:09:33,365
- See, Miss Styles may have
been the only one fired,
227
00:09:33,406 --> 00:09:36,117
but she wasn't the only
person to make a mistake--
228
00:09:36,159 --> 00:09:39,788
more than a mistake,
a dereliction of duty.
229
00:09:39,829 --> 00:09:41,456
Now, let's take a look
at who exactly
230
00:09:41,498 --> 00:09:45,001
was sent to this wrong address,
231
00:09:45,043 --> 00:09:47,796
basically a kill squad.
232
00:09:47,837 --> 00:09:51,424
- My husband was up late
working in his office.
233
00:09:51,466 --> 00:09:52,967
I went to bed around midnight.
234
00:09:53,009 --> 00:09:55,136
It was about 2:20 a.m.
when I hear
235
00:09:55,178 --> 00:09:57,222
this loud crash downstairs.
236
00:09:57,263 --> 00:09:58,306
[loud rattling]
237
00:09:58,348 --> 00:09:59,766
The force was so strong.
238
00:09:59,808 --> 00:10:01,685
I could feel it in our
bedroom, like a car had just
239
00:10:01,726 --> 00:10:02,644
run through the front door.
240
00:10:02,686 --> 00:10:05,355
Stay here.
241
00:10:05,397 --> 00:10:06,898
The next thing I heard
was gunfire.
242
00:10:06,940 --> 00:10:09,609
[rapid gunfire]
243
00:10:09,651 --> 00:10:11,236
I didn't think
it would ever stop.
244
00:10:11,277 --> 00:10:13,822
- Your husband
was a building inspector.
245
00:10:13,863 --> 00:10:15,615
Is that right?
- Yes, he was.
246
00:10:15,657 --> 00:10:18,618
- And you said your husband
was working at 2:00 a.m.
247
00:10:18,660 --> 00:10:22,330
Is it typical for a building
inspector to be up so late?
248
00:10:22,372 --> 00:10:23,206
- Sometimes.
249
00:10:23,248 --> 00:10:24,666
What kind of question is that?
250
00:10:24,708 --> 00:10:27,836
- Court records state the
two of you had been fighting.
251
00:10:27,877 --> 00:10:29,004
Is that correct?
252
00:10:29,045 --> 00:10:30,380
- Objection, Your Honor.
253
00:10:30,422 --> 00:10:31,673
Relevance?
254
00:10:31,715 --> 00:10:33,842
- I'm getting to
Joshua's state of mind
255
00:10:33,883 --> 00:10:35,885
when he encountered
those officers.
256
00:10:35,927 --> 00:10:38,888
- I'll allow it.
257
00:10:38,930 --> 00:10:40,348
- He'd been working late,
and it was causing
258
00:10:40,390 --> 00:10:43,893
some issues between us,
but it wasn't a big deal.
259
00:10:43,935 --> 00:10:47,105
- So there was tension
in the home?
260
00:10:47,147 --> 00:10:49,024
- No.
- You had been fighting.
261
00:10:49,065 --> 00:10:50,442
He'd been staying up all night.
262
00:10:50,483 --> 00:10:52,736
It's possible,
due to a lack of sleep,
263
00:10:52,777 --> 00:10:54,738
while in a state of rage,
264
00:10:54,779 --> 00:10:57,365
Joshua Hill-Jones
charged those officers
265
00:10:57,407 --> 00:10:58,575
leaving them no choice.
266
00:10:58,616 --> 00:10:59,617
- Objection, Your Honor.
267
00:10:59,659 --> 00:11:01,327
The defense is speculating.
268
00:11:01,369 --> 00:11:02,871
- Plaintiff will
answer the question.
269
00:11:02,912 --> 00:11:04,831
- Joshua was afraid, OK?
270
00:11:04,873 --> 00:11:07,542
You may not think that Black
men gets scared, but we do.
271
00:11:07,584 --> 00:11:10,045
Those cops came into
our house at 2:00 a.m.,
272
00:11:10,086 --> 00:11:11,546
and they never
announced themselves
273
00:11:11,588 --> 00:11:12,714
like they were supposed to do.
274
00:11:12,756 --> 00:11:14,257
We did nothing wrong.
275
00:11:14,299 --> 00:11:15,884
They were looking
to kill somebody,
276
00:11:15,925 --> 00:11:18,428
and they killed my husband!
277
00:11:20,430 --> 00:11:23,391
- Please state your name
and title for the court.
278
00:11:23,433 --> 00:11:26,644
- I'm Sergeant Lawrence Powell,
team leader
279
00:11:26,686 --> 00:11:30,357
of the Violent Incident Person
Evaluation and Response Unit.
280
00:11:30,398 --> 00:11:32,233
- Can you explain
to the court the events
281
00:11:32,275 --> 00:11:34,944
that led to your team
shooting an unarmed man?
282
00:11:34,986 --> 00:11:36,237
- Objection, Your Honor.
283
00:11:36,279 --> 00:11:37,822
- I'll rephrase.
284
00:11:37,864 --> 00:11:41,076
Please detail what transpired
once the VIPER Squad arrived
285
00:11:41,117 --> 00:11:42,744
at the Hill-Jones residence.
286
00:11:42,786 --> 00:11:45,246
- The resident charged at us.
287
00:11:45,288 --> 00:11:46,706
We were told we were
walking into the home
288
00:11:46,748 --> 00:11:48,500
of a dangerous arms dealer.
289
00:11:48,541 --> 00:11:50,752
We thought he had a weapon
and opened fire
290
00:11:50,794 --> 00:11:51,836
to protect ourselves.
291
00:11:51,878 --> 00:11:56,424
[rapid gunfire]
292
00:11:56,466 --> 00:11:59,135
- [breathing deeply]
293
00:11:59,177 --> 00:12:01,096
- You didn't fire
your weapon, correct?
294
00:12:01,137 --> 00:12:03,640
- I didn't need to,
because the rest of my squad
295
00:12:03,682 --> 00:12:05,517
had neutralized the threat.
296
00:12:05,558 --> 00:12:07,102
- And by neutralized
the threat,
297
00:12:07,143 --> 00:12:08,895
you mean
they had killed Joshua?
298
00:12:08,937 --> 00:12:11,147
- We followed protocol
and immediately
299
00:12:11,189 --> 00:12:13,775
sought medical attention
for Mr. Hill-Jones,
300
00:12:13,817 --> 00:12:17,362
but it was too late.
301
00:12:17,404 --> 00:12:20,532
- There's a widely held
psychological misconception--
302
00:12:20,573 --> 00:12:23,284
a false belief contradicted
by scientific evidence--
303
00:12:23,326 --> 00:12:26,204
that cops constantly
get into firefights.
304
00:12:26,246 --> 00:12:32,377
But 73% never fire their gun
once in their entire careers.
305
00:12:32,419 --> 00:12:34,421
- Why is this important
to note, Dr. Mercer?
306
00:12:34,462 --> 00:12:36,756
- One of the things
this data shows is,
307
00:12:36,798 --> 00:12:39,551
there are many ways
to de-escalate
308
00:12:39,592 --> 00:12:41,886
a dangerous situation.
309
00:12:41,928 --> 00:12:44,180
- Dr. Mercer can
trot out shooting stats
310
00:12:44,222 --> 00:12:46,766
all he wants, but we have
to look at this incident
311
00:12:46,808 --> 00:12:48,643
from the perspective
of the officers.
312
00:12:48,685 --> 00:12:52,856
They walked into that house
expecting an armed criminal
313
00:12:52,897 --> 00:12:54,566
who might kill them.
314
00:12:54,607 --> 00:12:57,402
And yet three out of the
four officers entering Joshua
315
00:12:57,444 --> 00:13:00,155
and Mason's house fired
their gun at an unarmed man.
316
00:13:00,196 --> 00:13:02,365
Why is the VIPER Squad
so much more violent?
317
00:13:02,407 --> 00:13:04,242
They have the
highest shoot rate.
318
00:13:04,284 --> 00:13:07,037
In three years, they've shot
12 people, killing 5.
319
00:13:07,078 --> 00:13:09,164
- Research shows
that once a person fires
320
00:13:09,205 --> 00:13:11,499
in the line of duty,
the psychological barrier
321
00:13:11,541 --> 00:13:14,336
to doing so
drops significantly.
322
00:13:14,377 --> 00:13:16,504
It becomes easier
for them to shoot again.
323
00:13:16,546 --> 00:13:19,758
And do these no-knock raids
push the statistical risk
324
00:13:19,799 --> 00:13:21,217
even higher?
325
00:13:21,259 --> 00:13:24,262
- Yes, given every
member of the VIPER squad
326
00:13:24,304 --> 00:13:27,640
had fired multiple times
in the past, that raid was
327
00:13:27,682 --> 00:13:29,726
a disaster waiting to happen.
328
00:13:29,768 --> 00:13:32,354
- The VIPER squad
is a tactical unit.
329
00:13:32,395 --> 00:13:35,106
Is it possible
their shoot rate is higher
330
00:13:35,148 --> 00:13:37,400
because they encounter
more dangerous situations?
331
00:13:37,442 --> 00:13:40,195
- The VIPER squad's record
is such an outlier
332
00:13:40,236 --> 00:13:42,739
it's hard to justify
simply by the situations
333
00:13:42,781 --> 00:13:44,282
they find themselves in.
334
00:13:44,324 --> 00:13:46,868
- Sounds to me like you're
cherry-picking the data.
335
00:13:46,910 --> 00:13:48,036
- Objection.
336
00:13:49,662 --> 00:13:52,916
- Can you explain
what happens to the brain
337
00:13:52,957 --> 00:13:55,085
in such an intense experience?
338
00:13:55,126 --> 00:13:57,003
- It's a fight-or-flight
response.
339
00:13:57,045 --> 00:13:58,254
We've all felt it.
340
00:13:58,296 --> 00:14:00,215
In emergencies,
the amygdala sends
341
00:14:00,256 --> 00:14:03,593
a distress signal
that floods the body and brain
342
00:14:03,635 --> 00:14:05,220
with survival hormones.
343
00:14:05,261 --> 00:14:08,640
Under those circumstances,
any officer
344
00:14:08,682 --> 00:14:09,974
could have taken the shot.
345
00:14:10,016 --> 00:14:12,727
- Is it true there is no
specific research studying
346
00:14:12,769 --> 00:14:16,064
an officer's brain chemistry
during a shooting incident
347
00:14:16,106 --> 00:14:17,482
to back up your testimony?
348
00:14:17,524 --> 00:14:19,818
- Well, there's simply
no plausible way
349
00:14:19,859 --> 00:14:22,946
to gather that information,
even in simulation.
350
00:14:22,987 --> 00:14:24,531
- But you have
used your position
351
00:14:24,572 --> 00:14:27,033
to block any attempt
from researchers to gather
352
00:14:27,075 --> 00:14:28,410
that data and run those tests.
353
00:14:28,451 --> 00:14:30,995
Isn't that right, Dr. Atwood?
354
00:14:31,037 --> 00:14:33,623
- Well, the fact is,
we haven't really
355
00:14:33,665 --> 00:14:36,793
needed those studies, because
there's plenty of research
356
00:14:36,835 --> 00:14:38,712
on humans under stress.
357
00:14:38,753 --> 00:14:40,171
And the last time I checked,
358
00:14:40,213 --> 00:14:44,592
cops are humans who are willing
to risk their lives
359
00:14:44,634 --> 00:14:49,347
to protect you and me.
360
00:14:49,389 --> 00:14:51,891
- Atwood recovered,
but we got a jab in there.
361
00:14:51,933 --> 00:14:52,892
What do you think?
362
00:14:52,934 --> 00:14:54,310
- Hard to tell.
363
00:14:54,352 --> 00:14:56,187
I was tracking
the jurors' body language.
364
00:14:56,229 --> 00:14:58,940
They went cold during
Mason's testimony,
365
00:14:58,982 --> 00:15:00,483
often avoiding eye contact.
366
00:15:00,525 --> 00:15:03,778
And they didn't even seem
fazed by the cops' haste
367
00:15:03,820 --> 00:15:06,781
nor the mistakes made
processing the warrant.
368
00:15:06,823 --> 00:15:09,951
- So we're screwed.
369
00:15:09,993 --> 00:15:11,286
- Everything OK?
370
00:15:11,327 --> 00:15:13,872
- No, everything's not OK.
371
00:15:13,913 --> 00:15:15,498
- Alec's testimony didn't help?
372
00:15:15,540 --> 00:15:17,625
- I don't think it was
enough to win over the jury.
373
00:15:17,667 --> 00:15:20,503
- This jury won't be
swayed by science.
374
00:15:20,545 --> 00:15:23,131
Start with juror
preconceived bias.
375
00:15:23,173 --> 00:15:24,716
- What's that?
376
00:15:24,758 --> 00:15:27,469
- In a lot of trials,
jurors walk in irrationally
377
00:15:27,510 --> 00:15:30,263
predisposed to a particular
verdict-- in this case,
378
00:15:30,305 --> 00:15:32,307
one that favors the cops.
379
00:15:32,349 --> 00:15:34,100
- Then how do you
persuade a jury whose
380
00:15:34,142 --> 00:15:35,518
minds are already made up?
381
00:15:35,560 --> 00:15:38,563
- We need to find a new
approach or Mason loses.
382
00:15:38,605 --> 00:15:42,400
[tense music]
383
00:15:47,447 --> 00:15:47,614
.
384
00:15:47,655 --> 00:15:48,823
- I haven't even made
funeral arrangements yet.
385
00:15:50,325 --> 00:15:53,745
And here you are digging
up stuff from the past.
386
00:15:53,787 --> 00:15:56,122
Peter was a good boy.
387
00:15:56,164 --> 00:15:57,916
- He blew up a church,
Mrs. Shelby.
388
00:15:57,957 --> 00:16:02,170
If he had good intentions,
help us understand.
389
00:16:02,212 --> 00:16:04,422
- I don't know
what you're talking about.
390
00:16:04,464 --> 00:16:06,508
- Are you aware
that your son belonged
391
00:16:06,549 --> 00:16:08,301
to a terrorist organization?
392
00:16:08,343 --> 00:16:09,761
- Terrorist?
[scoffs]
393
00:16:09,803 --> 00:16:12,389
You government types only
labeled the New Apostles
394
00:16:12,430 --> 00:16:14,015
terrorists after 9/11.
395
00:16:14,057 --> 00:16:17,560
Thanks to you people, I
haven't seen him for 20 years.
396
00:16:17,602 --> 00:16:19,104
- Your son ran
because he set off
397
00:16:19,145 --> 00:16:20,897
a bomb that killed 13 people.
398
00:16:20,939 --> 00:16:21,898
He's no martyr.
399
00:16:21,940 --> 00:16:23,233
He's a murderer.
400
00:16:23,274 --> 00:16:24,734
- Don't talk about him
like that.
401
00:16:24,776 --> 00:16:26,736
- He was a sinner who
desecrated the House of God.
402
00:16:26,778 --> 00:16:28,446
- It was an accident.
403
00:16:28,488 --> 00:16:30,782
All he wanted to do was return
this country to its roots,
404
00:16:30,824 --> 00:16:33,743
to make us moral,
God-fearing people again.
405
00:16:33,785 --> 00:16:37,288
- So you did speak to him
about the church bombing?
406
00:16:37,330 --> 00:16:40,291
[tense music]
407
00:16:40,333 --> 00:16:47,465
* *
408
00:16:50,927 --> 00:16:52,637
- Let me ask you something.
409
00:16:52,679 --> 00:16:56,641
Do you think the justice system
treats all Americans equally?
410
00:16:59,102 --> 00:17:00,645
- There are two systems,
411
00:17:00,687 --> 00:17:03,606
one when you are poor or Black,
412
00:17:03,648 --> 00:17:06,234
another when you are
middle class or white.
413
00:17:06,276 --> 00:17:08,111
And there might be a third--
414
00:17:08,153 --> 00:17:09,195
another for the super-rich.
415
00:17:09,237 --> 00:17:11,740
They get away with everything.
416
00:17:11,781 --> 00:17:13,867
- What would it take
to convince you otherwise?
417
00:17:13,908 --> 00:17:16,077
- A word from God Himself.
418
00:17:16,119 --> 00:17:18,413
Otherwise, those are the facts.
419
00:17:18,455 --> 00:17:19,748
- That's the crux
of our problem.
420
00:17:19,789 --> 00:17:22,417
Not everyone
grows up being profiled
421
00:17:22,459 --> 00:17:24,377
or constantly pulled over.
422
00:17:24,419 --> 00:17:27,464
Those same people want
to believe in equal justice.
423
00:17:27,505 --> 00:17:29,966
- People need
to open their eyes.
424
00:17:30,008 --> 00:17:32,552
- Harder than you think
because of motivated reasoning.
425
00:17:32,594 --> 00:17:34,471
When people have a belief,
they usually connect
426
00:17:34,512 --> 00:17:36,306
to ideas that support it.
427
00:17:36,348 --> 00:17:39,100
That's the headspace
most of the jurors are in.
428
00:17:39,142 --> 00:17:41,186
- So there's nothing we can do?
429
00:17:41,227 --> 00:17:42,812
I'm out there
protesting every day,
430
00:17:42,854 --> 00:17:45,648
and you're saying none of that
will make things better?
431
00:17:47,192 --> 00:17:49,527
- Better.
432
00:17:49,569 --> 00:17:52,322
That might be the key.
433
00:17:52,364 --> 00:17:54,407
A person can believe
in something,
434
00:17:54,449 --> 00:17:56,201
like I believe in science,
but there's
435
00:17:56,242 --> 00:18:00,580
always room for improvement.
436
00:18:00,622 --> 00:18:03,833
What if I tell the jury that
they can make things better,
437
00:18:03,875 --> 00:18:08,254
we find one thing that they can
improve by siding with Mason,
438
00:18:08,296 --> 00:18:10,715
make the whole case about that?
439
00:18:10,757 --> 00:18:14,260
Broken is too hard a sell,
so we sell better.
440
00:18:16,054 --> 00:18:17,305
- I'd buy that.
441
00:18:21,893 --> 00:18:23,186
What are you doing now?
442
00:18:23,228 --> 00:18:24,562
- I'm calling Phoebe
and Rizwan.
443
00:18:24,604 --> 00:18:27,107
I got an idea
for an experiment.
444
00:18:27,148 --> 00:18:29,943
Yesterday Dr. Atwood's
testimony
445
00:18:29,984 --> 00:18:32,737
appeared fair and unbiased.
446
00:18:32,779 --> 00:18:36,199
The problem is,
with paid experts
447
00:18:36,241 --> 00:18:39,244
like Dr. Atwood,
that's never the case.
448
00:18:39,285 --> 00:18:41,830
Introducing money creates bias.
449
00:18:41,871 --> 00:18:44,958
I wanted to better understand
how this bias works,
450
00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:48,712
so I conducted an experiment
where I paid experts
451
00:18:48,753 --> 00:18:52,007
to give their opinion
on a fictional case,
452
00:18:52,048 --> 00:18:54,426
a slip and fall in a hotel.
453
00:18:54,467 --> 00:18:57,053
All of them had the
same facts in the case.
454
00:18:57,095 --> 00:18:58,555
The only difference?
455
00:18:58,596 --> 00:19:02,225
Which side the person
was on paying them.
456
00:19:02,267 --> 00:19:06,896
Almost all the experts argued
for the side paying them.
457
00:19:06,938 --> 00:19:09,607
If the defense paid,
the expert's opinion
458
00:19:09,649 --> 00:19:11,359
sided with the defense.
459
00:19:11,401 --> 00:19:13,987
Same for the plaintiff.
460
00:19:14,029 --> 00:19:15,572
That's bias.
461
00:19:15,613 --> 00:19:18,199
And it makes you
question the motivation
462
00:19:18,241 --> 00:19:20,368
behind Dr. Atwood's testimony.
463
00:19:20,410 --> 00:19:21,369
- Objection.
464
00:19:21,411 --> 00:19:23,079
- I'll move on.
465
00:19:23,121 --> 00:19:25,874
In your scientific opinion,
how do we remedy this bias?
466
00:19:25,915 --> 00:19:31,004
- We have a wonderful system,
in theory--
467
00:19:31,046 --> 00:19:34,758
equal justice for all,
but it's not perfect--
468
00:19:34,799 --> 00:19:36,051
yet.
469
00:19:36,092 --> 00:19:42,390
People tend to say
it's only a few bad apples,
470
00:19:42,432 --> 00:19:46,603
but those bad apples
spoil the whole bunch.
471
00:19:46,644 --> 00:19:49,689
Juries like this one
have the chance
472
00:19:49,731 --> 00:19:53,860
to get rid of the bad apples
and protect the bunch.
473
00:19:53,902 --> 00:19:57,447
- Dr. Mercer,
you work as a consultant.
474
00:19:57,489 --> 00:19:58,448
Is that right?
475
00:19:58,490 --> 00:19:59,908
- I'm a professor first.
476
00:19:59,949 --> 00:20:02,786
But yes, sometimes I work
as a consultant.
477
00:20:02,827 --> 00:20:05,330
- And when you do consult,
you're paid
478
00:20:05,372 --> 00:20:07,415
upwards of $100,000 a day?
479
00:20:07,457 --> 00:20:08,750
- Depending on the client.
480
00:20:08,792 --> 00:20:11,336
For this,
I'm not making a dime.
481
00:20:16,966 --> 00:20:18,426
- [laughs]
482
00:20:18,468 --> 00:20:20,261
"I'm not making a dime."
483
00:20:20,303 --> 00:20:21,638
Boom.
484
00:20:21,680 --> 00:20:23,973
[laughs]
I wish I could have seen it.
485
00:20:24,015 --> 00:20:25,433
- We need five jurors.
486
00:20:25,475 --> 00:20:27,769
We have four
with two possibilities.
487
00:20:27,811 --> 00:20:30,980
- That's one juror closer
to a win.
488
00:20:31,022 --> 00:20:33,400
[laughs]
489
00:20:37,320 --> 00:20:39,322
Cop's behind me.
490
00:20:39,364 --> 00:20:40,490
He's going to pull me over.
491
00:20:40,532 --> 00:20:43,326
[sirens wailing]
492
00:20:43,368 --> 00:20:44,703
I knew it.
493
00:20:44,744 --> 00:20:46,121
- Pull over to the side
of the road.
494
00:20:46,162 --> 00:20:47,122
- Stay calm.
495
00:20:47,163 --> 00:20:49,040
Let me talk.
496
00:20:49,082 --> 00:20:50,417
- I don't need instructions.
497
00:20:50,458 --> 00:20:54,546
I know the damn drill.
498
00:20:54,587 --> 00:21:01,720
* *
499
00:21:06,391 --> 00:21:08,184
[loud tapping]
500
00:21:08,226 --> 00:21:10,353
* *
501
00:21:10,395 --> 00:21:11,521
- License and registration,
ma'am.
502
00:21:11,563 --> 00:21:14,566
* *
503
00:21:19,571 --> 00:21:19,779
.
504
00:21:19,821 --> 00:21:20,280
[tense music]
505
00:21:22,574 --> 00:21:25,076
* *
506
00:21:25,118 --> 00:21:28,288
- You drifted over
the solid white line.
507
00:21:28,329 --> 00:21:29,372
You been drinking tonight?
508
00:21:29,414 --> 00:21:33,084
* *
509
00:21:33,126 --> 00:21:35,587
- Nope, just Diet Coke.
510
00:21:35,628 --> 00:21:36,671
- So you wouldn't
mind submitting
511
00:21:36,713 --> 00:21:38,173
to a field sobriety test then?
512
00:21:38,214 --> 00:21:40,050
* *
513
00:21:40,091 --> 00:21:42,969
- Nothing would make
my evening more complete.
514
00:21:43,011 --> 00:21:49,726
* *
515
00:21:49,768 --> 00:21:52,354
- I'm going to need you
to walk in a straight line,
516
00:21:52,395 --> 00:21:53,897
one foot behind the other,
517
00:21:53,938 --> 00:21:58,401
counting down from 1,001
by 3s.
518
00:21:58,443 --> 00:22:04,240
* *
519
00:22:04,282 --> 00:22:06,534
- 1,001,
520
00:22:06,576 --> 00:22:12,290
998, 995--
521
00:22:12,332 --> 00:22:15,043
is this really necessary?
522
00:22:15,085 --> 00:22:18,004
* *
523
00:22:18,046 --> 00:22:19,547
- Keep counting.
524
00:22:19,589 --> 00:22:22,008
* *
525
00:22:22,050 --> 00:22:23,968
- No part of this
calls for a gun.
526
00:22:24,010 --> 00:22:25,804
She's shaking with adrenaline.
527
00:22:25,845 --> 00:22:27,263
He's going to make
her count backwards
528
00:22:27,305 --> 00:22:28,640
until she stumbles forward.
529
00:22:28,682 --> 00:22:30,767
- No one is talking to you.
530
00:22:30,809 --> 00:22:33,603
He's dealing with your sister.
531
00:22:33,645 --> 00:22:35,271
- You know she's my sister?
532
00:22:35,313 --> 00:22:37,148
This wasn't random?
533
00:22:37,190 --> 00:22:39,442
You're targeting us?
534
00:22:39,484 --> 00:22:41,486
- She crossed the lane
divider without signaling.
535
00:22:41,528 --> 00:22:43,405
- We both know
what this is about.
536
00:22:43,446 --> 00:22:44,823
She's got nothing
to do with it.
537
00:22:44,864 --> 00:22:47,992
You can take me in
if you want and deal
538
00:22:48,034 --> 00:22:52,664
with cleaning up that mess
in the press,
539
00:22:52,706 --> 00:22:54,708
or let her go.
540
00:22:54,749 --> 00:22:59,462
* *
541
00:22:59,504 --> 00:23:01,172
- Hey.
542
00:23:01,214 --> 00:23:02,173
She clear?
543
00:23:02,215 --> 00:23:05,802
* *
544
00:23:05,844 --> 00:23:08,096
- I'm not sure yet.
545
00:23:08,138 --> 00:23:09,514
- She seems fine.
546
00:23:09,556 --> 00:23:11,182
Let's get out of here.
547
00:23:11,224 --> 00:23:17,272
* *
548
00:23:17,313 --> 00:23:20,483
- [sobbing]
549
00:23:20,525 --> 00:23:27,615
* *
550
00:23:31,369 --> 00:23:32,370
- Hey.
551
00:23:32,412 --> 00:23:33,872
Catch you at a bad time?
552
00:23:33,913 --> 00:23:37,417
- Even if you did,
it wouldn't matter.
553
00:23:37,459 --> 00:23:40,170
Bob Caswood, come in?
554
00:23:40,211 --> 00:23:43,340
To what do I owe
this surprise visit?
555
00:23:43,381 --> 00:23:46,676
Something I can help the
intelligence division with?
556
00:23:46,718 --> 00:23:47,886
- Oh, there's no agenda.
557
00:23:47,927 --> 00:23:50,138
Just stopped by
for a little chat.
558
00:23:50,180 --> 00:23:52,390
- I worked under you
for ten years.
559
00:23:52,432 --> 00:23:54,100
You don't just stop by.
560
00:23:54,142 --> 00:23:55,643
You're a busy man.
561
00:23:55,685 --> 00:23:58,063
So why did you take the time
out of your day to come here?
562
00:23:58,104 --> 00:23:59,647
- Always the investigator, huh?
563
00:23:59,689 --> 00:24:01,983
- Someone taught me well.
564
00:24:02,025 --> 00:24:03,234
- Fine.
565
00:24:03,276 --> 00:24:05,070
Well, I'll just come
right out and say it.
566
00:24:05,111 --> 00:24:07,238
Now, you know
that I like to keep my ear
567
00:24:07,280 --> 00:24:09,407
close to the street,
and there's been
568
00:24:09,449 --> 00:24:12,243
rumblings about you and Jace.
569
00:24:14,371 --> 00:24:16,289
- That was fast.
570
00:24:16,331 --> 00:24:17,916
- We are intelligence.
571
00:24:17,957 --> 00:24:21,211
- It's not like we're the
first agents at the Bureau
572
00:24:21,252 --> 00:24:22,462
to get involved.
573
00:24:22,504 --> 00:24:25,507
We don't have many
opportunities off the job.
574
00:24:25,548 --> 00:24:26,925
- I get it.
575
00:24:26,966 --> 00:24:28,426
I just wouldn't be
a good friend if I
576
00:24:28,468 --> 00:24:30,512
didn't give you a heads-up.
577
00:24:30,553 --> 00:24:32,597
- Everything is a conflict.
578
00:24:32,639 --> 00:24:34,265
Now it's about me dating Jace.
579
00:24:34,307 --> 00:24:36,768
Someone going
to question my involvement
580
00:24:36,810 --> 00:24:38,311
in Alec's case next?
581
00:24:39,729 --> 00:24:41,439
- Maybe.
582
00:24:41,481 --> 00:24:45,026
Hey, it's not my call, but if
you want justice to play out,
583
00:24:45,068 --> 00:24:46,695
I would avoid
doing anything that
584
00:24:46,736 --> 00:24:49,739
would compromise
the investigation,
585
00:24:49,781 --> 00:24:51,366
because
like most things in life--
586
00:24:51,408 --> 00:24:53,493
- It's the optics.
587
00:24:53,535 --> 00:24:55,704
- It's the optics.
588
00:24:57,789 --> 00:24:59,332
- Where you are.
589
00:24:59,374 --> 00:25:01,459
- I don't have the problem.
- Classism. Classism.
590
00:25:01,501 --> 00:25:02,669
You are constantly--
591
00:25:02,711 --> 00:25:04,587
- Someone needs to check her.
- Hey.
592
00:25:04,629 --> 00:25:07,716
- [laughs]
593
00:25:07,757 --> 00:25:10,969
Mm-mm. Mm.
594
00:25:11,011 --> 00:25:14,305
Mm.
- Don't go there with me.
595
00:25:14,347 --> 00:25:15,390
- Excuse you.
596
00:25:15,432 --> 00:25:17,392
I'm watching that.
597
00:25:17,434 --> 00:25:19,019
- You've been watching
this trash since I
598
00:25:19,060 --> 00:25:20,186
went to bed last night.
599
00:25:20,228 --> 00:25:21,229
- OK.
600
00:25:21,271 --> 00:25:22,647
Where's the problem?
601
00:25:22,689 --> 00:25:24,065
- Studies show--
602
00:25:24,107 --> 00:25:26,359
- I'll pass
on the Mercer monologue.
603
00:25:26,401 --> 00:25:30,447
- Fine, no monologue.
604
00:25:30,488 --> 00:25:31,823
But we should talk about this.
605
00:25:31,865 --> 00:25:36,661
- No, we shouldn't,
because I'll scream.
606
00:25:36,703 --> 00:25:39,622
And I don't want
to scream at you,
607
00:25:39,664 --> 00:25:40,957
but you're the only one here.
608
00:25:40,999 --> 00:25:43,460
So I will if you force me
to talk about my feelings
609
00:25:43,501 --> 00:25:45,003
right now.
610
00:25:45,045 --> 00:25:48,840
All I want to do is watch
"Housewives of Potomac"
611
00:25:48,882 --> 00:25:51,885
and focus on other
people's problems.
612
00:25:54,220 --> 00:25:58,099
- You'd rather
suppress your feelings
613
00:25:58,141 --> 00:26:00,894
by watching housewives
throw lettuce at each other.
614
00:26:00,935 --> 00:26:03,021
- [chuckles]
615
00:26:03,063 --> 00:26:05,065
You can't help yourself,
can you?
616
00:26:07,317 --> 00:26:11,488
- It probably isn't
a good idea, but OK.
617
00:26:11,529 --> 00:26:13,281
- Mia, I don't believe
that you called us
618
00:26:13,323 --> 00:26:14,699
broke bitches
when you walked off.
619
00:26:14,741 --> 00:26:16,201
[phone buzzing]
620
00:26:16,242 --> 00:26:17,452
- Are you serious right now?
- Let's do it.
621
00:26:17,494 --> 00:26:20,538
Let's give a toast
to forgiveness.
622
00:26:20,580 --> 00:26:22,832
[indistinct chatter]
623
00:26:22,874 --> 00:26:23,833
- Hey, Mason.
624
00:26:23,875 --> 00:26:26,044
What's up?
625
00:26:26,086 --> 00:26:29,381
I'll be right there.
626
00:26:29,422 --> 00:26:31,758
- Mason OK?
627
00:26:31,800 --> 00:26:34,761
- The defense made an offer.
628
00:26:34,803 --> 00:26:37,013
They want to settle the case.
629
00:26:41,101 --> 00:26:42,727
- 3 million is a good offer.
630
00:26:42,769 --> 00:26:44,187
- Is it?
631
00:26:44,229 --> 00:26:46,022
It's like they're
forcing me to decide how much
632
00:26:46,064 --> 00:26:47,774
my dead husband is worth.
633
00:26:47,816 --> 00:26:48,817
So what?
634
00:26:48,858 --> 00:26:50,360
It's over now?
635
00:26:50,402 --> 00:26:52,112
Nothing about this
makes any sense.
636
00:26:52,153 --> 00:26:53,405
Alec got through to the jury,
637
00:26:53,446 --> 00:26:54,781
pushed this settlement
to happen.
638
00:26:54,823 --> 00:26:56,408
This is what we wanted.
639
00:26:56,449 --> 00:26:58,827
There's no such thing as
good news in this situation,
640
00:26:58,868 --> 00:27:00,954
but we need to take
this offer seriously.
641
00:27:00,995 --> 00:27:02,414
- Defense makes an offer.
642
00:27:02,455 --> 00:27:03,998
They know it doesn't
look good for them.
643
00:27:04,040 --> 00:27:05,834
- And we could still
be short a juror.
644
00:27:05,875 --> 00:27:07,460
My advice, we don't chance it.
645
00:27:07,502 --> 00:27:09,879
How about we look over
the deal and counter?
646
00:27:09,921 --> 00:27:12,882
We can print it and
review it line by line.
647
00:27:12,924 --> 00:27:15,385
- The printers
in Joshua's office.
648
00:27:15,427 --> 00:27:18,471
I haven't touched
anything there since.
649
00:27:20,807 --> 00:27:22,350
- We can go in with you.
650
00:27:22,392 --> 00:27:25,311
[somber music]
651
00:27:25,353 --> 00:27:31,317
* *
652
00:27:39,367 --> 00:27:40,452
- That yours?
653
00:27:40,493 --> 00:27:41,828
Kylie said you played
in college.
654
00:27:41,870 --> 00:27:43,955
- I haven't picked it up
in years.
655
00:27:43,997 --> 00:27:45,832
- You miss it?
656
00:27:45,874 --> 00:27:48,001
- Sometimes.
657
00:27:48,043 --> 00:27:49,961
- There's a lot of paperwork
in here.
658
00:27:50,003 --> 00:27:51,421
He worked from home a lot?
659
00:27:51,463 --> 00:27:53,089
- A few weeks before
everything happened,
660
00:27:53,131 --> 00:27:54,966
he brought home all
these files in crates,
661
00:27:55,008 --> 00:27:57,844
said he was doing
important research.
662
00:27:57,886 --> 00:27:59,637
- He say what he
was working on?
663
00:27:59,679 --> 00:28:02,015
- Something about zoning
violations and the city
664
00:28:02,057 --> 00:28:03,975
not doing anything about them.
665
00:28:04,017 --> 00:28:05,477
Joshua was obsessed.
666
00:28:05,518 --> 00:28:07,645
- So he wasn't
always a workaholic.
667
00:28:07,687 --> 00:28:09,022
- No.
668
00:28:09,064 --> 00:28:11,900
He cared about his work,
but not like this.
669
00:28:11,941 --> 00:28:13,651
He was so frustrated.
670
00:28:13,693 --> 00:28:19,991
He kept saying something about
the system working against him
671
00:28:20,033 --> 00:28:22,243
and that he was
going to prove it.
672
00:28:22,285 --> 00:28:24,996
I just thought
he was overreacting.
673
00:28:25,038 --> 00:28:28,041
He said it made him
feel like he was crazy.
674
00:28:28,083 --> 00:28:29,376
- You think it has something
to do with the case?
675
00:28:29,417 --> 00:28:30,502
- I don't know.
676
00:28:30,543 --> 00:28:31,836
But if he had
something to prove,
677
00:28:31,878 --> 00:28:32,837
it's possible he made an enemy.
678
00:28:32,879 --> 00:28:37,592
* *
679
00:28:37,634 --> 00:28:40,011
It looks like Joshua
was investigating code
680
00:28:40,053 --> 00:28:42,889
violations against
one company in particular,
681
00:28:42,931 --> 00:28:44,391
Ralbern Investments.
682
00:28:44,432 --> 00:28:47,477
- Ralbern
is a huge multinational.
683
00:28:47,519 --> 00:28:49,854
I've done contract
work for them.
684
00:28:49,896 --> 00:28:51,481
- These are building codes.
685
00:28:51,523 --> 00:28:54,025
Next to them are the violations
against Ralbern repeated
686
00:28:54,067 --> 00:28:55,527
multiple times.
687
00:28:55,568 --> 00:28:57,070
- What does this have
to do with my husband?
688
00:28:57,112 --> 00:28:59,030
- Nearly half
of Ralbern's security
689
00:28:59,072 --> 00:29:01,199
staff are moonlighting
D.C. Metro Police,
690
00:29:01,241 --> 00:29:02,617
Sergeant Powell included.
691
00:29:02,659 --> 00:29:04,661
Joshua was building
a case against them
692
00:29:04,703 --> 00:29:08,289
issuing the same violations
against them over and over.
693
00:29:08,331 --> 00:29:09,541
- That must have
pissed them off.
694
00:29:09,582 --> 00:29:11,251
- You're saying they
targeted Joshua?
695
00:29:11,292 --> 00:29:13,503
- You said that Joshua
felt like the system was
696
00:29:13,545 --> 00:29:17,132
against him,
and the system killed him.
697
00:29:17,173 --> 00:29:20,260
- You think
Sergeant Powell deliberately
698
00:29:20,301 --> 00:29:26,141
took his team to our home
to take him off of Ralbern?
699
00:29:26,182 --> 00:29:30,520
- I'm saying I think
your husband was murdered.
700
00:29:30,562 --> 00:29:33,940
[tense music]
701
00:29:38,737 --> 00:29:39,154
.
702
00:29:39,195 --> 00:29:39,654
[knock at door]
703
00:29:40,447 --> 00:29:41,573
- Anything from Ralbern yet?
704
00:29:41,614 --> 00:29:42,782
- I've been on hold
for over two hours.
705
00:29:42,824 --> 00:29:44,451
I still haven't spoken
to anyone in legal.
706
00:29:44,492 --> 00:29:45,952
- You're not going
to get through.
707
00:29:45,994 --> 00:29:47,704
They have
a 100-person legal team.
708
00:29:47,746 --> 00:29:49,289
This trial will be
long over before we
709
00:29:49,330 --> 00:29:51,416
navigate that legal minefield.
710
00:29:51,458 --> 00:29:54,419
- We need a way to
approach the VIPER team.
711
00:29:54,461 --> 00:29:58,214
- Maybe there's a way to get
one of them to come to us.
712
00:29:58,256 --> 00:30:00,216
Rizwan,
call Joy Reid's producers back.
713
00:30:00,258 --> 00:30:02,385
Tell them I'm going to
give them what they want,
714
00:30:02,427 --> 00:30:04,179
a sit-down with Atwood.
715
00:30:07,640 --> 00:30:09,809
- Moving on
to the Hill-Jones trial,
716
00:30:09,851 --> 00:30:13,521
an unarmed innocent man was
shot in his own living room.
717
00:30:13,563 --> 00:30:16,649
It should never have happened,
but was it negligence?
718
00:30:16,691 --> 00:30:20,153
We've got not one
but two distinguished expert
719
00:30:20,195 --> 00:30:23,198
witnesses here tonight,
Dr. Dustin Atwood
720
00:30:23,239 --> 00:30:24,824
and Dr. Alec Mercer.
721
00:30:24,866 --> 00:30:26,326
Dustin, you say no.
722
00:30:26,368 --> 00:30:28,244
- No, it was not negligence.
723
00:30:28,286 --> 00:30:29,996
Now, of course,
I wish this tragedy had
724
00:30:30,038 --> 00:30:31,664
not happened, as we all do.
725
00:30:31,706 --> 00:30:34,459
But when you consider the
information the officers had,
726
00:30:34,501 --> 00:30:36,795
they had every
reason to believe
727
00:30:36,836 --> 00:30:38,296
their lives were in danger.
728
00:30:38,338 --> 00:30:40,006
- Alec, you say yes.
729
00:30:40,048 --> 00:30:43,968
As police officers, their job
was to assess and reassess
730
00:30:44,010 --> 00:30:45,679
that danger moment by moment.
731
00:30:45,720 --> 00:30:47,347
- There was no time
to reassess.
732
00:30:47,389 --> 00:30:49,349
Any good cop
would have taken a shot
733
00:30:49,391 --> 00:30:50,558
under those circumstances.
734
00:30:50,600 --> 00:30:51,393
- Any cop?
735
00:30:51,434 --> 00:30:52,811
Wiggins didn't shoot.
736
00:30:52,852 --> 00:30:55,355
Officer Wiggins
didn't even draw his gun.
737
00:30:55,397 --> 00:30:57,273
If any good cop
would have taken that shot,
738
00:30:57,315 --> 00:30:58,650
is he not a good cop?
739
00:30:58,692 --> 00:30:59,734
- I didn't say that.
740
00:30:59,776 --> 00:31:01,403
- Was he the negligent one?
741
00:31:01,444 --> 00:31:03,905
- Are you criticizing
an officer for not shooting?
742
00:31:03,947 --> 00:31:06,449
- I'm just trying to
understand your point of view.
743
00:31:06,491 --> 00:31:09,285
You've said over and over that
those cops did the right thing.
744
00:31:09,327 --> 00:31:11,746
Well, that must mean
Wiggins did the wrong thing.
745
00:31:11,788 --> 00:31:13,415
No?
746
00:31:13,456 --> 00:31:15,542
- You raise a very interesting
question there, Alec.
747
00:31:15,583 --> 00:31:17,877
- Obviously, my friend
here is being hyperbolic, Joy.
748
00:31:17,919 --> 00:31:20,839
- Would you say Wiggins
isn't VIPER squad material?
749
00:31:20,880 --> 00:31:22,215
Does he need more training?
750
00:31:22,257 --> 00:31:23,591
I don't know.
751
00:31:23,633 --> 00:31:26,052
Maybe Wiggins should
find another job.
752
00:31:26,094 --> 00:31:27,303
- I-- I told you.
753
00:31:27,345 --> 00:31:29,723
I don't know anything.
754
00:31:29,764 --> 00:31:33,143
- Withholding information
about the bombing--
755
00:31:33,184 --> 00:31:35,854
that's obstruction
on 13 murders,
756
00:31:35,895 --> 00:31:38,565
arson, and terrorism.
757
00:31:38,606 --> 00:31:41,484
Could get you
a lot of jail time.
758
00:31:45,113 --> 00:31:49,200
- He said no one
was supposed to die.
759
00:31:49,242 --> 00:31:51,453
He only wanted
to get the church.
760
00:31:51,494 --> 00:31:54,039
It was six months after 9/11.
761
00:31:54,080 --> 00:31:56,124
And those Methodists
were loaning
762
00:31:56,166 --> 00:31:57,917
their church to a mosque.
763
00:31:57,959 --> 00:31:59,044
- So what happened?
764
00:31:59,085 --> 00:32:00,795
- I only know what he told me.
765
00:32:00,837 --> 00:32:05,383
He said he was supposed to set
the bomb timer for 60 minutes,
766
00:32:05,425 --> 00:32:10,096
and he accidentally
set it for 60 seconds.
767
00:32:10,138 --> 00:32:11,598
- Wait.
768
00:32:11,639 --> 00:32:16,227
So you're saying that
the murder of 13 people
769
00:32:16,269 --> 00:32:17,812
was a mistake?
770
00:32:19,522 --> 00:32:22,901
- Peter was in
way over his head.
771
00:32:22,942 --> 00:32:24,611
He didn't build the bomb.
772
00:32:24,652 --> 00:32:28,073
He got it from some guy
he met on the internet.
773
00:32:28,114 --> 00:32:29,783
- What guy?
774
00:32:29,824 --> 00:32:31,826
Was it Wes Banning?
775
00:32:31,868 --> 00:32:33,328
- Not him.
776
00:32:33,370 --> 00:32:38,041
This guy was
a fancy-looking professional,
777
00:32:38,083 --> 00:32:40,251
called himself Mathias.
778
00:32:43,296 --> 00:32:45,757
- So if what the bomber's
mom said was true,
779
00:32:45,799 --> 00:32:47,175
Wes made the bomb.
780
00:32:47,217 --> 00:32:48,760
Peter planted the bomb.
781
00:32:48,802 --> 00:32:54,057
But the third guy,
Mathias, was behind it all.
782
00:32:54,099 --> 00:32:55,934
- That's who was
at Wes's parole hearing.
783
00:32:55,975 --> 00:32:57,769
- Finding him will not be easy.
784
00:32:57,811 --> 00:32:59,813
- Pamela said he's white,
fancy,
785
00:32:59,854 --> 00:33:03,024
fedora, wears a flashy gold
watch, probably a Rolex--
786
00:33:03,066 --> 00:33:04,109
not much to go on.
787
00:33:04,150 --> 00:33:05,652
- Maybe not yet.
788
00:33:05,694 --> 00:33:08,405
But the bomber met Matthias
in an online chat room.
789
00:33:08,446 --> 00:33:10,073
That site might be gone,
but there's
790
00:33:10,115 --> 00:33:13,993
a company that maintains
a database of old websites.
791
00:33:14,035 --> 00:33:15,912
We start there.
792
00:33:15,954 --> 00:33:18,915
[tense music]
793
00:33:18,957 --> 00:33:25,880
* *
794
00:33:32,262 --> 00:33:34,180
- Is this about my interview?
795
00:33:34,222 --> 00:33:35,557
- I didn't shoot anyone.
796
00:33:35,598 --> 00:33:37,934
Why the hell did you
crucify me on TV?
797
00:33:37,976 --> 00:33:40,311
- Would you have come
to confront me otherwise?
798
00:33:40,353 --> 00:33:44,816
* *
799
00:33:44,858 --> 00:33:49,404
I want to know why you
didn't fire your gun.
800
00:33:50,905 --> 00:33:52,532
- I made a judgment
call in the moment,
801
00:33:52,574 --> 00:33:54,617
no different from anyone else.
802
00:33:54,659 --> 00:33:56,202
- Let me ask you something.
803
00:33:56,244 --> 00:33:57,912
Are you familiar
with Ralbern Investments?
804
00:33:57,954 --> 00:33:59,456
- Yeah.
805
00:33:59,497 --> 00:34:01,166
A lot of officers do work
for them on the side.
806
00:34:01,207 --> 00:34:02,584
- Like Powell?
807
00:34:02,625 --> 00:34:03,585
- Yeah.
808
00:34:03,626 --> 00:34:05,128
So?
809
00:34:05,170 --> 00:34:08,048
- Could Powell have changed
the address to Joshua's house?
810
00:34:08,089 --> 00:34:09,341
- No way.
811
00:34:09,382 --> 00:34:10,675
I was there when
we got the warrant.
812
00:34:10,717 --> 00:34:12,552
He pinned it to
our planning board.
813
00:34:12,594 --> 00:34:16,723
If someone changed it, it
wasn't him, wasn't any of us.
814
00:34:16,765 --> 00:34:19,768
- Who else could have
touched that warrant?
815
00:34:19,809 --> 00:34:21,811
* *
816
00:34:21,853 --> 00:34:24,064
- I don't know.
817
00:34:24,105 --> 00:34:25,231
Ask the clerk.
818
00:34:25,273 --> 00:34:27,901
* *
819
00:34:27,942 --> 00:34:31,071
[bell jingling]
820
00:34:31,112 --> 00:34:33,448
- You said that you might
be able to get my job back?
821
00:34:33,490 --> 00:34:35,742
- There may be a way
to clear your name.
822
00:34:35,784 --> 00:34:38,370
Looks like the victim
was keeping records
823
00:34:38,411 --> 00:34:40,538
on overturned code violations.
824
00:34:40,580 --> 00:34:43,291
Are you familiar with
Ralbern Investments?
825
00:34:43,333 --> 00:34:45,627
- The property
development conglomerate?
826
00:34:45,669 --> 00:34:49,547
- These are all the
violations against Ralbern.
827
00:34:49,589 --> 00:34:51,383
Do you know who would
have overturned them?
828
00:34:51,424 --> 00:34:52,801
- Oh, that's easy.
829
00:34:52,842 --> 00:34:54,928
Judge Haynes handles
all those kinds of cases.
830
00:34:54,969 --> 00:34:57,555
- The same Judge Haynes who
signed the original warrant?
831
00:34:57,597 --> 00:34:59,432
- A quirk of living in D.C.--
832
00:34:59,474 --> 00:35:01,226
the same judges
do criminal and civil.
833
00:35:01,267 --> 00:35:04,604
* *
834
00:35:09,609 --> 00:35:09,818
.
835
00:35:09,859 --> 00:35:10,318
[light music]
836
00:35:12,612 --> 00:35:15,907
* *
837
00:35:15,949 --> 00:35:19,911
- All right,
so what's this about, Mercer?
838
00:35:19,953 --> 00:35:21,121
- I talked to Mason.
839
00:35:21,162 --> 00:35:22,580
He doesn't want
to take the settlement.
840
00:35:22,622 --> 00:35:24,624
It could look like
a loss for you.
841
00:35:24,666 --> 00:35:26,209
- Yeah, I guess we'll see.
842
00:35:26,251 --> 00:35:28,169
- But I think I know
a way I could convince him,
843
00:35:28,211 --> 00:35:31,548
but turns out,
I'm going to need your help.
844
00:35:34,551 --> 00:35:36,845
- So I've got this
multifamily development
845
00:35:36,886 --> 00:35:38,513
that I'm renovating
in Southeast,
846
00:35:38,555 --> 00:35:41,307
but I keep running
into these BS citations
847
00:35:41,349 --> 00:35:43,393
over gas line hazards.
848
00:35:43,435 --> 00:35:46,396
- Everyone whines there isn't
enough affordable housing.
849
00:35:46,438 --> 00:35:48,565
But they make building
codes so costly,
850
00:35:48,606 --> 00:35:50,066
you can't build a damn thing.
851
00:35:50,108 --> 00:35:52,193
- Because the politics
always get in the way.
852
00:35:52,235 --> 00:35:55,363
- This country was built by
businesses, not regulations.
853
00:35:55,405 --> 00:35:56,823
- That's for sure.
854
00:35:56,865 --> 00:36:00,035
That's why I say,
thank God for capitalism.
855
00:36:00,076 --> 00:36:01,494
- [chuckles]
856
00:36:03,413 --> 00:36:06,708
You know, I golf with
Thomas Wilson over at Ralbern.
857
00:36:06,750 --> 00:36:10,003
And he says you are
a free thinker,
858
00:36:10,045 --> 00:36:12,630
that you don't allow
corporate bureaucracy
859
00:36:12,672 --> 00:36:15,717
to get in the way of building
the American dream.
860
00:36:18,136 --> 00:36:19,679
- I do what I can.
861
00:36:19,721 --> 00:36:21,222
- And he said I should
talk to you about possibly
862
00:36:21,264 --> 00:36:22,891
expediting the process.
863
00:36:22,932 --> 00:36:25,560
You know, I'd love to make
a hefty campaign contribution,
864
00:36:25,602 --> 00:36:27,520
but those limits and all--
865
00:36:27,562 --> 00:36:30,982
- You're telling me.
866
00:36:31,024 --> 00:36:32,108
Listen.
867
00:36:32,150 --> 00:36:35,111
Why don't we avoid
all that red tape?
868
00:36:35,153 --> 00:36:36,529
Put me on retainer.
869
00:36:38,198 --> 00:36:39,407
- Retainer?
870
00:36:39,449 --> 00:36:40,992
Sounds good.
871
00:36:41,034 --> 00:36:42,160
How much?
872
00:36:42,202 --> 00:36:44,579
- For you, $5,000 a month.
873
00:36:45,622 --> 00:36:47,040
- Fair enough.
874
00:36:47,082 --> 00:36:50,001
Let's say I transfer
a good faith deposit.
875
00:36:50,043 --> 00:36:50,960
Offshore account?
876
00:36:52,671 --> 00:36:55,965
- I have it all.
877
00:37:01,388 --> 00:37:04,432
- Judge Thaddeus Haynes,
there are some people here
878
00:37:04,474 --> 00:37:07,727
who want to speak to you.
879
00:37:09,187 --> 00:37:10,563
- What the hell is going on?
880
00:37:10,605 --> 00:37:14,150
- You have been taking
bribes for years
881
00:37:14,192 --> 00:37:15,610
and getting away with it.
882
00:37:15,652 --> 00:37:17,445
You believed you
were invulnerable,
883
00:37:17,487 --> 00:37:19,364
especially after
killing a man and almost
884
00:37:19,406 --> 00:37:20,407
getting away with it.
885
00:37:20,448 --> 00:37:21,449
- That's insane.
886
00:37:21,491 --> 00:37:22,951
I didn't kill anyone.
887
00:37:22,992 --> 00:37:25,453
- You had a nice little
side hustle taking bribes
888
00:37:25,495 --> 00:37:29,708
from companies like Ralbern to
help them skirt around onerous
889
00:37:29,749 --> 00:37:31,960
building regulations.
890
00:37:32,002 --> 00:37:35,046
But there was a fly
in the ointment--
891
00:37:35,088 --> 00:37:36,131
Joshua.
892
00:37:36,172 --> 00:37:38,591
He caught on
to your side hustle.
893
00:37:38,633 --> 00:37:40,301
You weren't about to go down
894
00:37:40,343 --> 00:37:43,179
because of some over-dedicated
building inspector.
895
00:37:43,221 --> 00:37:44,806
But he wouldn't let up.
896
00:37:44,848 --> 00:37:48,476
And then the DA
hands you a request
897
00:37:48,518 --> 00:37:49,894
for a no-knock warrant.
898
00:37:49,936 --> 00:37:53,106
And you realize that the
location of the suspect
899
00:37:53,148 --> 00:37:56,985
was on the same
street as Joshua.
900
00:37:57,027 --> 00:38:00,155
Computers had been
down over a week,
901
00:38:00,196 --> 00:38:04,200
so any mistakes could be
blamed on human error.
902
00:38:04,242 --> 00:38:07,787
Everything just
fell in your lap.
903
00:38:07,829 --> 00:38:09,831
Must have felt like
divine providence,
904
00:38:09,873 --> 00:38:11,958
and you seized the moment.
905
00:38:12,000 --> 00:38:14,919
A court clerk
gets the warrant,
906
00:38:14,961 --> 00:38:16,629
processes it manually,
907
00:38:16,671 --> 00:38:18,840
and hands it back to you
to sign.
908
00:38:18,882 --> 00:38:22,052
That's when you change
the address.
909
00:38:22,093 --> 00:38:26,765
You made sure the VIPER squad
went to the wrong house,
910
00:38:26,806 --> 00:38:29,726
where Joshua was murdered.
911
00:38:29,768 --> 00:38:32,187
[tense music]
912
00:38:32,228 --> 00:38:37,567
[handcuffs clicking]
913
00:38:37,609 --> 00:38:39,778
Whew.
914
00:38:39,819 --> 00:38:42,197
I never thought we'd see
eye to eye enough
915
00:38:42,238 --> 00:38:44,616
to work together.
916
00:38:44,657 --> 00:38:45,742
Thank you.
917
00:38:45,784 --> 00:38:47,869
- Hey, got to protect my stats.
918
00:38:47,911 --> 00:38:52,707
- Most humans, when reminded,
will do the right thing.
919
00:38:52,749 --> 00:38:55,543
Last I checked,
you are human, right?
920
00:38:55,585 --> 00:38:58,046
- You're welcome, Mercer.
921
00:39:07,847 --> 00:39:09,015
- Here you go.
922
00:39:09,057 --> 00:39:11,226
- Thank you.
923
00:39:11,267 --> 00:39:12,727
Wingo called.
924
00:39:12,769 --> 00:39:16,773
Hey says they are
dismantling the VIPER squad.
925
00:39:16,815 --> 00:39:18,316
- Well, that's more good news.
926
00:39:18,358 --> 00:39:20,944
[door clicks open]
927
00:39:20,985 --> 00:39:22,445
- Mason.
928
00:39:22,487 --> 00:39:23,905
- Hey, Dr. Mercer.
929
00:39:23,947 --> 00:39:28,451
I just came over
to see Kylie and to say--
930
00:39:28,493 --> 00:39:29,452
thank you.
931
00:39:29,494 --> 00:39:30,995
- No need.
932
00:39:31,037 --> 00:39:34,207
I'm just glad you got
some semblance of justice.
933
00:39:34,249 --> 00:39:35,250
- Strange.
934
00:39:35,291 --> 00:39:37,669
I've all these feelings--
935
00:39:37,711 --> 00:39:42,173
anger, shock,
guilt, but never peace.
936
00:39:43,508 --> 00:39:44,801
- It may never go away.
937
00:39:46,553 --> 00:39:49,264
But you can move past it.
938
00:39:49,305 --> 00:39:50,890
- How?
939
00:39:50,932 --> 00:39:52,350
- There's no one answer.
940
00:39:52,392 --> 00:39:55,937
I don't know
what's best for you, Mason.
941
00:39:55,979 --> 00:39:57,647
That'll be for you to explore.
942
00:40:00,483 --> 00:40:01,609
- That's it?
943
00:40:01,651 --> 00:40:04,654
No profound Mercer monologue?
944
00:40:04,696 --> 00:40:06,948
- I'm fresh out
of monologues, young'un.
945
00:40:06,990 --> 00:40:09,159
Nothing profound to say today.
946
00:40:09,200 --> 00:40:12,704
- Then I'll recycle
an old one,
947
00:40:12,746 --> 00:40:15,123
one that I know by heart.
948
00:40:15,165 --> 00:40:17,959
Maybe start
with finding something
949
00:40:18,001 --> 00:40:19,961
that reminds you of happiness.
950
00:40:22,005 --> 00:40:25,091
- I could dust off the trumpet.
951
00:40:25,133 --> 00:40:26,134
- Ooh.
952
00:40:26,176 --> 00:40:27,469
- [laughs]
953
00:40:27,510 --> 00:40:29,637
- I think I can still fit
in my majorette outfit.
954
00:40:29,679 --> 00:40:31,723
[laughter]
955
00:40:31,765 --> 00:40:35,727
- I know I should go home, but
I don't want to face it yet.
956
00:40:35,769 --> 00:40:38,355
- Mm,
hang here until you're ready.
957
00:40:38,396 --> 00:40:41,316
We can stay up all night
like old times.
958
00:40:41,358 --> 00:40:42,942
[laughs]
959
00:40:42,984 --> 00:40:46,946
- You know, I hear that there's
a reality show set in Potomac
960
00:40:46,988 --> 00:40:48,907
that'll help you forget
all your problems,
961
00:40:48,948 --> 00:40:50,408
even if it's only for an hour.
962
00:40:50,450 --> 00:40:51,576
We should tune in.
963
00:40:51,618 --> 00:40:53,161
- Mm.
964
00:40:53,203 --> 00:40:54,496
Hell yeah.
965
00:40:54,537 --> 00:40:56,164
[chuckles]
966
00:40:56,206 --> 00:40:57,957
- So you guys think
there's something up
967
00:40:57,999 --> 00:40:59,876
because of her relationship
with [indistinct].
968
00:40:59,918 --> 00:41:00,877
- Absolutely.
969
00:41:00,919 --> 00:41:03,463
[all screaming]
970
00:41:03,505 --> 00:41:07,467
- [laughs]
- Oh, my God. We made it.
