1
00:00:00,001 --> 00:00:04,959
The following story is fictional and does
not depict any actual person or event.
2
00:00:05,684 --> 00:00:08,304
In New York City's war on crime,
3
00:00:08,304 --> 00:00:11,609
the worst criminal offenders
are pursued by the detectives
4
00:00:11,609 --> 00:00:13,239
of the Major Case Squad.
5
00:00:13,239 --> 00:00:15,529
These are their stories.
6
00:00:34,685 --> 00:00:37,961
I can't do this to him.
7
00:00:37,961 --> 00:00:40,109
He's my friend.
8
00:00:40,963 --> 00:00:42,070
I have to call you back.
9
00:00:42,070 --> 00:00:46,177
I know this is your big night,
but these need to be proofed.
10
00:00:55,113 --> 00:00:56,976
Go.
11
00:01:07,669 --> 00:01:09,787
You're just leaving now?
12
00:01:10,171 --> 00:01:12,566
Don't even bother, D.
13
00:01:15,253 --> 00:01:17,041
Thank you.
14
00:01:17,041 --> 00:01:19,037
Thank you very much.
15
00:01:23,429 --> 00:01:29,457
Next up, I'm personally proud to introduce,
straight out of Brooklyn,
16
00:01:29,457 --> 00:01:33,432
give it up for miss Kira Danforth.
17
00:01:39,860 --> 00:01:44,196
The following is, as they say...
18
00:01:44,196 --> 00:01:46,724
A true story.
19
00:01:48,138 --> 00:01:53,075
I'm so glad you came tonight.
That meant a lot to me.
20
00:01:53,075 --> 00:01:55,858
You know what I'm saying?
I'm like airing my dirty laundry...
21
00:01:55,858 --> 00:01:59,938
You. You have a great novel in you.
22
00:01:59,938 --> 00:02:01,648
And I want it.
23
00:02:01,648 --> 00:02:03,835
Lionel says it's not a novel yet.
24
00:02:03,835 --> 00:02:07,028
Lionel's not an agent.
I am.
25
00:02:07,028 --> 00:02:09,607
Come on. First drink is on me.
26
00:02:09,607 --> 00:02:12,976
I have to read the whole book.
I mean, I can't believe...
27
00:02:12,976 --> 00:02:14,126
Yo, Kira, what's this?
28
00:02:14,126 --> 00:02:18,148
Ho, ho, ho, hey, hey, hey.
Hands off the lady.
29
00:02:21,542 --> 00:02:23,606
Shall we?
30
00:02:26,258 --> 00:02:27,992
You know him?
31
00:02:30,593 --> 00:02:36,244
He couldn't make a sentence stand up
and be noticed if he put viagra in the ink.
32
00:02:36,244 --> 00:02:37,878
Dear. Ah.
33
00:02:37,878 --> 00:02:39,677
Thank you.
34
00:02:39,677 --> 00:02:44,738
Hello. Kira, where are you?
35
00:02:44,738 --> 00:02:48,716
Kira, he's very bad news.
Get out.
36
00:02:48,716 --> 00:02:51,945
Just come join us
as soon as you can.
37
00:02:51,945 --> 00:02:54,110
Really?
38
00:02:57,882 --> 00:03:00,763
That's not real either!
39
00:03:57,790 --> 00:04:00,198
Victim's Kira Danforth.
40
00:04:00,198 --> 00:04:02,456
Lot of good these locks did.
41
00:04:02,456 --> 00:04:04,371
Looks like a push-in.
42
00:04:04,371 --> 00:04:08,828
Ah, but what do I know,
after working only 50 homicides?
43
00:04:08,828 --> 00:04:10,840
You mind telling me
why major case is slumming?
44
00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:14,653
Victim worked for Ariana Cypher
of Cypher press.
45
00:04:14,653 --> 00:04:17,007
Oh. Took her for a college grad.
46
00:04:17,007 --> 00:04:19,975
What with all the books,
milk crate furniture.
47
00:04:19,975 --> 00:04:21,576
Oh, found this...
48
00:04:21,576 --> 00:04:24,461
Here near the, uh, kitchenette.
49
00:04:24,461 --> 00:04:27,386
Saturday night special.
Older than the victim.
50
00:04:27,386 --> 00:04:32,208
Small caliber.
Poor girl bled to death.
51
00:04:32,208 --> 00:04:35,105
Looks like she's got
synthetic hair extensions.
52
00:04:35,105 --> 00:04:38,115
They've been singed.
This hand's burned.
53
00:04:38,115 --> 00:04:42,202
- Looks like coils.
- Stove's electric.
54
00:04:46,114 --> 00:04:48,171
So...
55
00:04:48,941 --> 00:04:52,049
They tried to, uh,
56
00:04:52,049 --> 00:04:54,495
shove her head into the burner.
57
00:04:54,495 --> 00:04:58,034
She blocks it with her left hand.
58
00:05:01,310 --> 00:05:03,450
Burns her hand and her hair too.
59
00:05:03,450 --> 00:05:05,245
Whoever did this,
they were looking for something.
60
00:05:05,245 --> 00:05:07,648
They wanted her to talk.
61
00:05:27,512 --> 00:05:30,585
Well, they might have found
what they were looking for.
62
00:05:30,914 --> 00:05:35,457
I got bright Green resin,
crystallized.
63
00:05:35,457 --> 00:05:38,418
And they say cops have the best pot.
64
00:05:38,418 --> 00:05:40,748
East Flatbush kid.
65
00:05:40,748 --> 00:05:44,686
Selling high-end weed
to her midtown colleagues.
66
00:05:44,686 --> 00:05:46,794
You know, you could
store a fortune in here.
67
00:05:46,794 --> 00:05:49,648
A single female... easy target.
68
00:05:49,648 --> 00:05:55,869
She might not be single.
Scarface DVD. Men's hoodies.
69
00:05:55,869 --> 00:05:57,676
Where's her boyfriend?
70
00:05:57,676 --> 00:05:59,975
Somebody outside wants a word.
71
00:05:59,975 --> 00:06:02,122
- Family?
- Don't know.
72
00:06:02,122 --> 00:06:05,724
But you're major case.
You tell me.
73
00:06:10,009 --> 00:06:13,389
Kira may have come from here,
but she was going places.
74
00:06:13,389 --> 00:06:15,683
What did Kira do for you, Miss Cypher?
75
00:06:15,683 --> 00:06:19,068
Everything.
She was devoted, brilliant.
76
00:06:19,068 --> 00:06:22,420
No matter how early I got in,
she was always there first.
77
00:06:22,420 --> 00:06:25,551
Right. When she didn't show this morning,
you came here?
78
00:06:25,551 --> 00:06:30,444
No. I sent my other assistant, Paige.
She called 911.
79
00:06:30,444 --> 00:06:32,641
Feel free to ask her anything.
80
00:06:32,641 --> 00:06:35,737
I want the killer caught.
You'll handle this, yes?
81
00:06:35,737 --> 00:06:39,160
- We'll do our very best.
- I'm late.
82
00:06:41,578 --> 00:06:45,212
I can't believe it. Just last night,
Kira was on top of the world.
83
00:06:45,212 --> 00:06:46,086
You were with her.
84
00:06:46,086 --> 00:06:48,104
At a short story reading
in the East Village.
85
00:06:48,104 --> 00:06:50,987
I had no idea she lived here.
86
00:06:50,987 --> 00:06:53,692
Kira kept a lot close to the vest.
87
00:06:53,692 --> 00:06:55,561
Like selling pot at work?
88
00:06:55,561 --> 00:06:57,866
Kira? Never.
89
00:06:57,866 --> 00:06:59,744
Where'd you get that idea?
90
00:06:59,744 --> 00:07:01,563
She ever mention a boyfriend?
91
00:07:01,563 --> 00:07:02,675
No.
92
00:07:02,675 --> 00:07:08,325
But, uh, last month, coming back from lunch,
we ran into a friend of hers on his bike.
93
00:07:08,325 --> 00:07:11,748
She didn't introduce us,
so I did it myself.
94
00:07:11,748 --> 00:07:14,698
His name was D tour.
95
00:07:14,698 --> 00:07:18,888
Baggy jeans,
oversized hoodie? / Yeah.
96
00:07:18,888 --> 00:07:20,818
He was...
97
00:07:21,761 --> 00:07:25,582
He was really... black.
98
00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:28,597
Really black.
You mean obsidian?
99
00:07:28,597 --> 00:07:33,751
No. I mean not like Kira, you know?
Street.
100
00:07:33,751 --> 00:07:36,850
Said he was an animator
for a studio in Red hook,
101
00:07:36,850 --> 00:07:40,739
but he looked like a messenger.
102
00:07:43,650 --> 00:07:47,747
His real name...
Uh, we just call him D tour.
103
00:07:47,747 --> 00:07:50,646
He runs errands, makes deliveries.
104
00:07:50,646 --> 00:07:52,561
Uh, out sick today.
105
00:07:52,561 --> 00:07:54,950
He told people he was an animator.
106
00:07:54,950 --> 00:07:56,633
I told him he could work his way up.
107
00:07:56,633 --> 00:07:59,512
But he's always strolling in late.
108
00:07:59,768 --> 00:08:03,064
He's not exactly employee of the month,
why keep him around?
109
00:08:03,064 --> 00:08:05,806
We like him.
He's a fun guy.
110
00:08:05,806 --> 00:08:07,998
And it's a fun place to work.
111
00:08:08,404 --> 00:08:09,654
You got all this stuff.
112
00:08:09,654 --> 00:08:14,497
You got pinball machines
and ping-pong.
113
00:08:19,546 --> 00:08:22,260
You got roaches.
114
00:08:26,022 --> 00:08:28,603
Is that why you keep D tour around,
'cause he gets the good stuff?
115
00:08:28,603 --> 00:08:31,013
Your dial-a-weed pal's
a murder suspect.
116
00:08:31,013 --> 00:08:33,594
Where does he live?
117
00:08:35,694 --> 00:08:40,288
All I have is a...
pager number.
118
00:08:46,973 --> 00:08:50,617
Hey, yo, D.
What the deal, baby?
119
00:09:03,535 --> 00:09:06,033
How did this happen to my daughter?
120
00:09:06,033 --> 00:09:09,141
We're looking for a man
Kira was involved with.
121
00:09:09,141 --> 00:09:12,191
Goes by the name D tour.
122
00:09:12,191 --> 00:09:13,612
This means nothing to me.
123
00:09:13,612 --> 00:09:16,463
They mean Dante, mama.
124
00:09:16,463 --> 00:09:20,825
Dante Heath...
is my sister's high school boyfriend.
125
00:09:20,825 --> 00:09:23,501
- He lived nearby.
- In the projects.
126
00:09:23,501 --> 00:09:25,737
My Kira was raised in a home,
127
00:09:25,737 --> 00:09:28,765
one I worked three jobs to buy.
128
00:09:28,765 --> 00:09:31,290
Is that how you paid
for her education?
129
00:09:31,290 --> 00:09:34,996
She won scholarships
to Kingsley, Bryn Mawr.
130
00:09:34,996 --> 00:09:37,640
My Kira was chosen.
131
00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:43,126
She had nothing to do
with that troublemaker for years.
132
00:09:46,308 --> 00:09:48,890
You don't share your mother's feelings?
133
00:09:48,890 --> 00:09:51,068
Kira loved that fool.
134
00:09:51,068 --> 00:09:53,454
- She took care of him.
- And you didn't tell me?
135
00:09:53,454 --> 00:09:56,586
- D tour wouldn't hurt her.
- Chayne!
136
00:09:56,813 --> 00:09:58,753
He have a history?
137
00:09:58,753 --> 00:10:01,269
Violence, drugs?
138
00:10:01,269 --> 00:10:03,356
Sells a little ganja.
139
00:10:03,356 --> 00:10:07,008
You know, with his bike and cartoons,
he's too much a kid to get into real trouble.
140
00:10:07,008 --> 00:10:10,309
This is as real as it gets, Chayne.
141
00:10:11,318 --> 00:10:13,987
But D tour must know that by now.
142
00:10:13,987 --> 00:10:15,670
He's on the run.
He's scared.
143
00:10:15,670 --> 00:10:19,102
I suppose he'd go where
any kid would... Home.
144
00:10:19,102 --> 00:10:23,401
To his mother.
If you can call her that.
145
00:10:25,096 --> 00:10:29,712
Dante crashes with his mom
in the same project he grew up in.
146
00:10:29,712 --> 00:10:31,642
Kira has a degree from Bryn Mawr.
147
00:10:31,642 --> 00:10:34,941
Why come back here... for him?
148
00:10:46,874 --> 00:10:48,868
What are y'all looking at?
149
00:10:48,868 --> 00:10:51,681
What the hell are y'all looking at?
150
00:10:54,244 --> 00:10:57,937
No, what happened to me was payback
for stealing someone's stash.
151
00:10:57,937 --> 00:11:00,138
You robbed somebody.
152
00:11:00,138 --> 00:11:02,628
I was making a pickup
when I heard shots.
153
00:11:02,628 --> 00:11:05,724
I saw my connection
and some fool both dead,
154
00:11:05,724 --> 00:11:09,054
all this weed on the table,
nobody around.
155
00:11:09,054 --> 00:11:12,417
But somebody made you.
Who?
156
00:11:12,417 --> 00:11:14,802
Before they killed Kira, they tortured her.
157
00:11:14,802 --> 00:11:16,524
Why would you protect them?
158
00:11:16,524 --> 00:11:19,163
I hope they rot in hell.
But they didn't kill Kira.
159
00:11:19,163 --> 00:11:22,606
- How do you know that?
- 'cause she left me a message.
160
00:11:22,606 --> 00:11:25,158
Said they roughed her up.
161
00:11:25,158 --> 00:11:29,283
Message is still there.
You can check it your damn self.
162
00:11:30,213 --> 00:11:32,278
What happened?
163
00:11:32,515 --> 00:11:35,867
She dump you, you got jealous?
164
00:11:35,867 --> 00:11:38,514
I knew I lost her at that reading.
165
00:11:38,514 --> 00:11:41,830
I saw the way... the way
he was touching her, speaking for her.
166
00:11:41,830 --> 00:11:43,013
Who's he?
167
00:11:43,013 --> 00:11:46,025
Some white guy.
Losin' his hair.
168
00:11:46,025 --> 00:11:51,315
I was mad, so...
I just hooked up with some hood rat.
169
00:11:52,864 --> 00:11:57,088
D tour and a rebound date
were at Roscoe's till 3:00.
170
00:11:57,088 --> 00:12:00,425
Kira's burns preceded the death
by a few hours.
171
00:12:00,425 --> 00:12:05,333
Looks like this torture and murder
might have been two separate events.
172
00:12:05,333 --> 00:12:08,250
Or D tour's friends could have been
laying in wait for him the whole night.
173
00:12:08,250 --> 00:12:11,023
We think they recovered
their pot and cut out.
174
00:12:11,023 --> 00:12:14,546
Kira left D tour this message at 11:00.
175
00:12:14,546 --> 00:12:16,567
They came for your stash.
176
00:12:16,567 --> 00:12:20,107
The place is a mess, and so am I.
It's over, D.
177
00:12:20,107 --> 00:12:24,977
Kira made two other cell calls Thursday night
to the Pantheon restaurant.
178
00:12:24,977 --> 00:12:27,669
The Pantheon... bright lights, big city.
179
00:12:27,669 --> 00:12:31,485
Looks like Kira was
juggling two worlds.
180
00:12:31,485 --> 00:12:35,246
And this was the night that they
both came crashing down on her.
181
00:12:35,246 --> 00:12:38,725
Receding hairline?
That's every other editor in New York.
182
00:12:38,725 --> 00:12:40,936
You didn't leave the reading with Kira?
183
00:12:40,936 --> 00:12:42,136
I had homework.
184
00:12:42,136 --> 00:12:44,991
And she was being mobbed;
editors, agents.
185
00:12:44,991 --> 00:12:47,232
Only TJ was getting more attention.
186
00:12:47,232 --> 00:12:49,162
TJ... Hawkins?
187
00:12:49,162 --> 00:12:52,247
He wrote that memoir about his time
in a Yemen prison?
188
00:12:52,247 --> 00:12:55,273
Throat full of glass.
Best-seller.
189
00:12:55,273 --> 00:12:58,397
He and Kira are
in Lionel's salon together.
190
00:12:58,397 --> 00:13:00,982
- Lionel...
- Lionel Shill.
191
00:13:00,982 --> 00:13:02,240
He's still writing?
192
00:13:02,240 --> 00:13:04,662
He's legendary now.
As a teacher.
193
00:13:04,662 --> 00:13:07,732
Guiding new writers like Kira and TJ.
194
00:13:07,732 --> 00:13:09,854
It's a token.
195
00:13:11,664 --> 00:13:16,723
I get it. She's the only
African-American in these photos.
196
00:13:16,723 --> 00:13:19,779
She had a sense of humor about it.
197
00:13:20,105 --> 00:13:21,810
Right.
198
00:13:22,728 --> 00:13:25,323
"American delinquent," Hawkins.
199
00:13:25,323 --> 00:13:28,093
- It's his new book?
- Mm-hmm.
200
00:13:28,563 --> 00:13:31,421
"to my girl Kira. Love, TJ."
201
00:13:31,421 --> 00:13:32,919
TJ and Kira were lovers?
202
00:13:32,919 --> 00:13:34,943
No. Like siblings.
203
00:13:34,943 --> 00:13:36,545
And Lionel's pets.
204
00:13:36,545 --> 00:13:42,915
In fact, Lionel invited TJ to a special dinner
at the Pantheon later that night.
205
00:13:43,506 --> 00:13:46,996
And TJ invited Kira?
206
00:13:46,996 --> 00:13:48,813
He did.
207
00:13:49,555 --> 00:13:51,667
You liked "Throat full"?
208
00:13:52,089 --> 00:13:53,667
- There you go.
- Thanks.
209
00:13:53,667 --> 00:13:55,551
Have a good one.
210
00:13:56,211 --> 00:13:58,231
You two aren't here for autographs.
211
00:13:58,231 --> 00:13:59,524
No.
212
00:13:59,524 --> 00:14:02,304
But I read your last one,
"Throat full of glass."
213
00:14:02,304 --> 00:14:04,713
- It was intense.
- Try living it.
214
00:14:04,713 --> 00:14:06,504
You always write about your life?
215
00:14:06,504 --> 00:14:09,564
It's a way for me
to exorcise my demons.
216
00:14:09,564 --> 00:14:12,268
Done things I shouldn't have.
217
00:14:12,744 --> 00:14:16,394
That include last Thursday night?
218
00:14:21,372 --> 00:14:25,008
Okay. I gotcha.
219
00:14:26,433 --> 00:14:29,257
Think I did it? Huh?
220
00:14:29,484 --> 00:14:32,610
Because of what... my past?
221
00:14:32,610 --> 00:14:35,925
You need to take it easy, TJ.
222
00:14:41,125 --> 00:14:44,417
Is that your idea of taking it easy?
223
00:14:47,601 --> 00:14:50,888
A lawyer? Naw, I can handle you two.
224
00:14:50,888 --> 00:14:53,287
Then sit down and answer the question.
225
00:14:53,287 --> 00:14:55,701
Where were you
Thursday at 2:00 AM?
226
00:14:55,701 --> 00:14:57,562
With Lionel Shill.
227
00:14:57,562 --> 00:14:59,079
Call him.
228
00:14:59,079 --> 00:15:03,178
Or don't. Just throw me in Rikers.
I don't care.
229
00:15:04,045 --> 00:15:06,399
Uh, hold that thought.
230
00:15:11,029 --> 00:15:12,262
He's a piece of work.
231
00:15:12,262 --> 00:15:16,751
Yeah, paparazzi's swarming outside.
TJ did this for the publicity.
232
00:15:16,751 --> 00:15:18,722
And he got it.
233
00:15:18,722 --> 00:15:21,183
You made Youlenz.
234
00:15:21,183 --> 00:15:25,514
The ADA says it's performance art,
not assault.
235
00:15:25,514 --> 00:15:29,955
If Shill confirms his alibi,
we'll have to street him.
236
00:15:32,174 --> 00:15:37,639
I first met TJ about five years ago
at a Narconon meeting.
237
00:15:37,639 --> 00:15:39,367
Researching a new book?
238
00:15:39,367 --> 00:15:40,915
Yes.
239
00:15:41,357 --> 00:15:44,033
TJ was the real thing.
240
00:15:44,033 --> 00:15:47,149
Oh, the stories he told.
Once he was...
241
00:15:47,149 --> 00:15:50,002
So you invited him into your salon.
242
00:15:50,002 --> 00:15:53,011
I told him that writing
could be his salvation,
243
00:15:53,011 --> 00:15:55,657
and, ah, today he's an author.
244
00:15:55,657 --> 00:16:00,150
So you invited him to the Pantheon.
Was that to impress anyone?
245
00:16:00,150 --> 00:16:01,658
Au contraire.
246
00:16:01,658 --> 00:16:04,748
I knew he'd be delighted
to meet my dear friend Phillip Green
247
00:16:04,748 --> 00:16:06,462
who just won the Nobel.
248
00:16:06,462 --> 00:16:09,438
TJ showed up about 9:00.
249
00:16:09,438 --> 00:16:11,655
After dinner, we retired here.
250
00:16:11,655 --> 00:16:13,131
I wish you wouldn't.
251
00:16:13,131 --> 00:16:15,768
Those were gifts to me
from Paul Bowles!
252
00:16:15,768 --> 00:16:19,344
TJ invited Kira too.
Did she come?
253
00:16:19,344 --> 00:16:21,008
No, she called.
254
00:16:21,008 --> 00:16:24,999
She was with Gareth Sage.
Snake of a man.
255
00:16:24,999 --> 00:16:26,792
A snake.
256
00:16:26,792 --> 00:16:28,527
So he's an agent.
257
00:16:28,527 --> 00:16:31,970
Yes, he doesn't handle
many women clients today.
258
00:16:31,970 --> 00:16:36,608
Perhaps because of the way he...
handled them.
259
00:16:37,270 --> 00:16:42,306
Kira called you again at 11:00.
Did she mention Sage?
260
00:16:42,559 --> 00:16:47,143
I couldn't make out a word.
She was very upset.
261
00:16:47,143 --> 00:16:51,090
I told her to call 911.
262
00:16:51,090 --> 00:16:54,562
Here's "White flight, black hate".
263
00:16:55,770 --> 00:16:59,584
It's about a young man who
shoots a cop in the Newark riots.
264
00:16:59,584 --> 00:17:01,445
I read this when I was in college.
265
00:17:01,445 --> 00:17:05,293
I taught that young man to read
while he was in prison.
266
00:17:05,293 --> 00:17:07,617
He died of AIDS.
267
00:17:07,617 --> 00:17:10,229
I'd show you my new one
that's due out in a month,
268
00:17:10,229 --> 00:17:12,483
but my publisher would kill me.
269
00:17:12,483 --> 00:17:15,192
But you may keep that one.
I'm happy to sign it for you.
270
00:17:15,192 --> 00:17:16,809
Not necessary. It's...
271
00:17:16,809 --> 00:17:20,780
- But we will take Sage's number.
- Okay.
272
00:17:24,398 --> 00:17:26,892
Go ahead.
273
00:17:30,213 --> 00:17:32,112
No, no, Tom...
274
00:17:32,112 --> 00:17:34,871
The detectives aren't staying.
275
00:17:34,871 --> 00:17:37,541
You know what? I'll have one of those.
Thanks. Thank you.
276
00:17:37,541 --> 00:17:39,272
Hey!
277
00:17:39,570 --> 00:17:41,289
And call the Today Show.
278
00:17:41,289 --> 00:17:44,682
Tell them if they don't take my call,
I'm gonna go right to Zucker.
279
00:17:44,682 --> 00:17:47,169
Okay. I liked her reading.
280
00:17:47,169 --> 00:17:52,465
We went to a bar, Thor,
and... we discussed her future.
281
00:17:52,465 --> 00:17:54,277
Did you give Kira a lift home?
282
00:17:54,277 --> 00:17:59,249
No. I went back to the wife
and the brat in Glen Cove.
283
00:17:59,249 --> 00:18:01,951
All right, after your drink with Kira,
284
00:18:01,951 --> 00:18:03,782
she called a friend.
She was very upset.
285
00:18:03,782 --> 00:18:06,498
- You have any idea why?
- I can't imagine.
286
00:18:06,498 --> 00:18:08,690
I'd just told her I was
gonna handle her novel.
287
00:18:08,690 --> 00:18:11,401
Well, we heard you don't
represent women.
288
00:18:11,953 --> 00:18:16,481
Oh, I see... Lionel Shill.
289
00:18:16,481 --> 00:18:18,412
Jerking you and me around.
290
00:18:18,412 --> 00:18:22,637
- Well, you can ignore him.
- Mr. Sage, Today Show on one.
291
00:18:24,273 --> 00:18:26,449
Hi. Yeah.
292
00:18:26,449 --> 00:18:29,744
Look. TJ was terrific on Leno last year.
293
00:18:29,744 --> 00:18:32,018
Why are you making me work so hard, huh?
294
00:18:32,018 --> 00:18:35,512
Tom, Tom, would you please
show the detectives out?
295
00:18:35,512 --> 00:18:39,767
Yeah. Well, this book is a lot better.
Let me tell you.
296
00:18:39,767 --> 00:18:42,030
- Thank you, Tom.
- You're welcome.
297
00:18:42,030 --> 00:18:46,812
I found Gareth Sage stories all over
a message board devoted to bad bosses.
298
00:18:46,812 --> 00:18:48,347
You just happened to be looking there.
299
00:18:48,347 --> 00:18:53,298
He forced a woman to lick up coffee
she spilled on his desk.
300
00:18:53,298 --> 00:18:56,481
He's a successful, powerful agent,
and he's hard on his assistants.
301
00:18:56,481 --> 00:18:58,197
You need a message board for that?
302
00:18:58,197 --> 00:19:01,891
At least three women have charged him
with sexual harassment.
303
00:19:01,891 --> 00:19:03,677
- But there's no record of assault.
- No.
304
00:19:03,677 --> 00:19:07,073
Because Sage always settles out of court.
305
00:19:07,364 --> 00:19:08,568
Where's your partner?
306
00:19:08,568 --> 00:19:12,621
He's on a reading binge.
Hawkins, Shill.
307
00:19:12,850 --> 00:19:16,157
Sage is gonna lawyer up the next time
you and Goren go to see him.
308
00:19:16,157 --> 00:19:20,133
Before you do, see if
any of these women will talk.
309
00:19:20,357 --> 00:19:23,914
I won this lit prize at Columbia.
310
00:19:23,914 --> 00:19:26,856
There was a ceremony. I read.
311
00:19:26,856 --> 00:19:31,190
Gareth was there.
Took me out for a drink.
312
00:19:31,190 --> 00:19:34,164
I told him I had a novel at home.
313
00:19:34,164 --> 00:19:36,074
And he asked to read it.
314
00:19:36,074 --> 00:19:38,762
He gave me a ride in his Jaguar.
315
00:19:38,762 --> 00:19:41,308
And that's when he harassed you.
316
00:19:41,308 --> 00:19:44,111
I tried to fight him off,
but he overpowered me.
317
00:19:44,111 --> 00:19:45,886
But you fought him in court.
318
00:19:45,886 --> 00:19:47,545
And lost.
319
00:19:47,545 --> 00:19:49,773
I got a little hush money, but...
320
00:19:49,773 --> 00:19:52,621
He said he'd bury me.
321
00:19:52,621 --> 00:19:56,183
It's not exactly the future
you hoped for?
322
00:19:56,183 --> 00:19:59,470
Sharks like Gareth Sage...
323
00:19:59,724 --> 00:20:02,344
They don't pay for their sins.
324
00:20:04,034 --> 00:20:06,149
This is Sage and his wife.
325
00:20:06,149 --> 00:20:09,399
But it turns out he has another type.
326
00:20:09,399 --> 00:20:12,710
He gave Sharon a ride home
to pick up her novel.
327
00:20:12,710 --> 00:20:15,733
Who's to say he didn't
drive Kira to get hers?
328
00:20:15,733 --> 00:20:18,107
Eames, it's a reach.
329
00:20:18,107 --> 00:20:19,522
He still drive a Jag?
330
00:20:19,522 --> 00:20:23,804
A new one every three years,
just like his harassment suits.
331
00:20:23,804 --> 00:20:25,363
If he drove his other victims home,
332
00:20:25,363 --> 00:20:28,481
you might have enough for
a search warrant on his car.
333
00:20:33,889 --> 00:20:40,179
Lionel, the...
the new one, it's not...
334
00:20:42,656 --> 00:20:50,974
You know... sometimes your greatest
triumph can be your Albatross.
335
00:20:50,974 --> 00:20:57,003
This life I have...
the one you've given me...
336
00:20:57,326 --> 00:21:00,256
I can't go back.
337
00:21:03,212 --> 00:21:05,446
Have a drink.
338
00:21:05,446 --> 00:21:09,937
It's okay.
You'll feel better.
339
00:21:21,750 --> 00:21:23,213
This is synthetic hair.
340
00:21:23,213 --> 00:21:26,922
Your wife's extensions, Mr. Sage?
341
00:21:28,079 --> 00:21:29,819
Hang on.
342
00:21:34,748 --> 00:21:36,737
Compact.
343
00:21:39,777 --> 00:21:42,618
That's an odd shade for a blonde.
344
00:21:42,867 --> 00:21:46,271
You gave Kira a ride after all.
345
00:21:52,161 --> 00:21:54,562
Does your client recognize these women?
346
00:21:54,562 --> 00:21:56,483
Only as shakedown artists.
347
00:21:56,483 --> 00:21:59,995
Those charges were settled.
Each liar received her quick buck.
348
00:21:59,995 --> 00:22:04,552
Well, your client told us
that he left Kira Danforth in a bar.
349
00:22:04,552 --> 00:22:07,653
But we found proof that
she was in his Jaguar.
350
00:22:07,653 --> 00:22:10,587
So what does that make him?
351
00:22:14,167 --> 00:22:15,802
Okay.
352
00:22:15,802 --> 00:22:19,329
I drove her home, and that's it.
353
00:22:19,598 --> 00:22:21,533
Kira rejected you,
354
00:22:21,533 --> 00:22:23,987
and you were afraid that she'd talk,
355
00:22:23,987 --> 00:22:27,221
so you came back to make sure
that she wouldn't?
356
00:22:27,221 --> 00:22:31,900
No. Kira ran up to get her novel.
357
00:22:31,900 --> 00:22:35,879
Now, I can't afford mixed messages,
so I waited in my car...
358
00:22:35,879 --> 00:22:40,899
When I realized where I was,
in my Jag in the 'hood.
359
00:22:40,899 --> 00:22:45,487
So I set my GPS for civilization,
and I got the hell out.
360
00:22:45,487 --> 00:22:50,294
Here's his GPS log.
Mr. Sage was home by 10:30.
361
00:22:50,294 --> 00:22:52,019
Why didn't you tell us this before?
362
00:22:52,019 --> 00:22:56,742
I was afraid of how it would look,
given that people like to tell lies about me.
363
00:22:56,742 --> 00:23:01,839
These women, they're sworn to secrecy
as part of their settlement.
364
00:23:01,839 --> 00:23:04,087
So who you talking about?
365
00:23:05,229 --> 00:23:07,329
Lionel Shill?
366
00:23:07,329 --> 00:23:09,318
Why is he mad at you?
367
00:23:09,318 --> 00:23:14,194
He's mad at himself for squandering
what little talent he had.
368
00:23:14,194 --> 00:23:16,341
He projects his loathing onto me
369
00:23:16,341 --> 00:23:18,742
and anyone else that
he might be jealous of.
370
00:23:18,742 --> 00:23:21,971
You're saying that
that would include Kira?
371
00:23:21,971 --> 00:23:26,930
Well, Kira had two things
that Shill lacks...
372
00:23:26,930 --> 00:23:30,777
A voice and a future.
373
00:23:57,169 --> 00:24:00,529
Gareth was home long
before Kira was shot.
374
00:24:00,529 --> 00:24:02,421
Which means
we're back to square one.
375
00:24:02,421 --> 00:24:07,132
Maybe not. This is the galleys
to Shill's new novel.
376
00:24:07,132 --> 00:24:13,695
It's about a young black painter's rise
from poverty to Manhattan's posh art scene.
377
00:24:13,695 --> 00:24:17,328
He's calling it "Token".
378
00:24:19,444 --> 00:24:21,506
So...
379
00:24:21,762 --> 00:24:25,391
How closely does it hew to the novel
Kira was gonna give Gareth?
380
00:24:25,391 --> 00:24:26,939
We haven't been able to find it.
381
00:24:26,939 --> 00:24:31,181
Kira's computer was smashed
the night she was killed.
382
00:24:31,181 --> 00:24:33,512
Just how desperate is Mr. Shill?
383
00:24:33,512 --> 00:24:36,267
Well, his last six novels
crashed and burned.
384
00:24:36,267 --> 00:24:38,656
He makes a living on the lecture circuit.
385
00:24:38,656 --> 00:24:40,731
You know, Ariana Cypher,
386
00:24:40,731 --> 00:24:45,942
she said that Kira was always
the first person in the office.
387
00:24:45,942 --> 00:24:48,869
Maybe she came early
to work on her novel.
388
00:24:48,869 --> 00:24:51,526
Take another pass
at Kira's work computer.
389
00:24:51,526 --> 00:24:54,018
Don't tell Ariana why.
390
00:24:54,018 --> 00:24:55,659
Can you do that?
391
00:24:55,659 --> 00:25:00,381
I wanna talk to one of the characters
in Shill's novel.
392
00:25:02,184 --> 00:25:05,640
I never read what she wrote.
Writing stuff wasn't my bag.
393
00:25:05,640 --> 00:25:06,869
Kira loved ya.
394
00:25:06,869 --> 00:25:09,724
She loved the way you sang.
What was the song?
395
00:25:09,724 --> 00:25:12,353
Forgot what tune it was. Uh...
396
00:25:12,353 --> 00:25:15,064
Made her smile... Shine eye girl.
397
00:25:15,064 --> 00:25:17,039
How you know that?
398
00:25:17,658 --> 00:25:19,832
Because I read it.
399
00:25:19,832 --> 00:25:22,275
Kira wrote about me?
400
00:25:23,165 --> 00:25:25,163
I'm not sure I'm feelin' that.
401
00:25:25,163 --> 00:25:27,909
Why, you got something to hide?
402
00:25:30,332 --> 00:25:33,153
I was 16. I stole a beemer.
403
00:25:33,153 --> 00:25:34,993
Ended up in Spofford for a year.
404
00:25:34,993 --> 00:25:39,843
And Kira... she came
to see me every week.
405
00:25:39,843 --> 00:25:42,842
Well, she didn't write
anything about that.
406
00:25:44,323 --> 00:25:48,895
Look, she ever tell you
what Shill thought about her novel?
407
00:25:48,895 --> 00:25:51,241
He never let her read it
in front of his group.
408
00:25:51,241 --> 00:25:53,061
She'd come home in tears.
409
00:25:53,061 --> 00:25:58,326
No matter how hard she worked,
he said it wasn't enough.
410
00:26:01,373 --> 00:26:06,191
Kira's manuscript was in a file
on her hard drive titled budgets.
411
00:26:06,191 --> 00:26:10,651
You know, I spoke to D tour,
and Shill stole her voice.
412
00:26:10,651 --> 00:26:14,408
Kira's last phone calls were to Shill.
413
00:26:14,408 --> 00:26:15,865
Yeah, but he might have snapped
414
00:26:15,865 --> 00:26:18,533
if she told him that Sage was
interested in her novel.
415
00:26:18,533 --> 00:26:22,412
I don't know if I see Shill
leaving his West Village townhouse
416
00:26:22,412 --> 00:26:26,121
to shoot his protege
in a Brooklyn ghetto.
417
00:26:26,121 --> 00:26:28,629
Yeah, but the guy is
desperate for a comeback.
418
00:26:28,629 --> 00:26:30,833
If Kira exposed him for what he is,
419
00:26:30,833 --> 00:26:33,453
I can't see that guy
surviving humiliation like that.
420
00:26:33,453 --> 00:26:36,464
- I know guys like this.
- I know you do.
421
00:26:36,948 --> 00:26:38,879
I've met your mentor.
422
00:26:38,879 --> 00:26:40,978
Well, it's not about that.
423
00:26:40,978 --> 00:26:44,142
It's about finding the truth.
We gotta bring this guy in now.
424
00:26:44,142 --> 00:26:46,978
Let's talk to Shill on his own turf.
425
00:26:47,183 --> 00:26:54,163
You know, Phillip Green could attest
that the three of us were home all night.
426
00:26:54,163 --> 00:26:56,604
Of course, he's in Stockholm,
427
00:26:56,604 --> 00:27:00,963
so perhaps it would be
easier to contact TJ.
428
00:27:00,963 --> 00:27:05,188
Your loyal protege TJ Hawkins.
429
00:27:05,759 --> 00:27:07,889
Now, he owes his career to you.
430
00:27:07,889 --> 00:27:10,007
Well, he's been kind enough to say so.
431
00:27:10,007 --> 00:27:13,688
In the same way that you owe
Kira your comeback.
432
00:27:13,688 --> 00:27:15,194
Pardon?
433
00:27:15,194 --> 00:27:17,731
You stole her book.
434
00:27:17,972 --> 00:27:20,758
Right? Your new book.
435
00:27:20,758 --> 00:27:23,726
Kira's life is an inspiration, but I...
436
00:27:23,726 --> 00:27:28,541
Would you do me a favor?
Could you read this?
437
00:27:28,541 --> 00:27:31,144
I marked it here...
438
00:27:31,144 --> 00:27:34,151
Can you read this for me?
439
00:27:35,748 --> 00:27:37,863
Look, just...
440
00:27:38,246 --> 00:27:40,039
Yeah.
441
00:27:43,075 --> 00:27:46,048
"He was making chicken stew.
442
00:27:46,048 --> 00:27:51,658
"The fetor of garlic pulled her back,
but she was determined to go."
443
00:27:51,658 --> 00:27:53,744
That's a nice piece of writing.
444
00:27:53,744 --> 00:27:58,009
- Thank you.
- "D cooks stew chicken."
445
00:27:58,468 --> 00:28:01,017
"The smell of garlic burrows
into my silk blouse.
446
00:28:01,017 --> 00:28:05,486
I leave, reeking of home
and feeling like a traitor."
447
00:28:06,518 --> 00:28:09,435
We found Kira's novel.
448
00:28:10,844 --> 00:28:16,638
It's not as purple as your prose, but...
449
00:28:16,638 --> 00:28:20,356
I don't know, to me it rings truer.
450
00:28:20,606 --> 00:28:22,205
Everyone's a critic.
451
00:28:22,205 --> 00:28:25,760
And you're a plagiarist, aren't you?
452
00:28:25,760 --> 00:28:29,629
You're a fake.
A hack.
453
00:28:29,629 --> 00:28:33,459
If word got out,
those lecture fees would dry up.
454
00:28:33,459 --> 00:28:37,646
Kira trusted you,
and you stole from her.
455
00:28:37,646 --> 00:28:40,238
And you are being hyperbolic, detective!
456
00:28:40,238 --> 00:28:42,515
I'm not done!
457
00:28:47,137 --> 00:28:50,651
I'd like for you to say
that you're a fraud.
458
00:28:58,229 --> 00:29:00,872
Have a seat.
Go ahead.
459
00:29:01,231 --> 00:29:02,855
Come on.
460
00:29:03,349 --> 00:29:06,134
I'd like you to say it.
461
00:29:15,576 --> 00:29:17,785
Okay.
462
00:29:20,395 --> 00:29:23,010
You pulled back the curtain,
463
00:29:23,010 --> 00:29:27,021
and you found a pathetic old man...
464
00:29:27,021 --> 00:29:31,816
who coveted a brilliant
young writer's future.
465
00:29:32,502 --> 00:29:36,440
Perhaps he... he took her words.
466
00:29:37,732 --> 00:29:42,451
Only her words.
Not her life.
467
00:29:47,424 --> 00:29:49,836
You killed Kira to save your legacy.
468
00:29:49,836 --> 00:29:51,670
What legacy?
469
00:29:51,670 --> 00:29:55,658
My last novel sold less than
a thousand copies.
470
00:29:55,658 --> 00:29:58,583
I was here...
471
00:29:58,583 --> 00:30:03,829
As I am every night, drinking...
472
00:30:18,507 --> 00:30:20,420
All right!
473
00:30:20,767 --> 00:30:23,838
I'll give you Phillip's number.
474
00:30:24,194 --> 00:30:27,430
I was... I was hoping to
spare him this, but
475
00:30:27,430 --> 00:30:31,844
he will certify that
I was home all night.
476
00:30:37,718 --> 00:30:42,759
My god, if I didn't know better,
I'd swear this was personal.
477
00:30:50,466 --> 00:30:54,504
I just woke up a very cranky
Phillip Green in Stockholm.
478
00:30:54,504 --> 00:30:58,566
He says he and TJ and Shill
got to Shill's home around 11:30
479
00:30:58,566 --> 00:31:03,379
where he spent most of the night
in the guest room recovering.
480
00:31:03,379 --> 00:31:04,791
Recovering from what?
481
00:31:04,791 --> 00:31:07,868
An overabundance of Grappa.
482
00:31:08,817 --> 00:31:11,896
Why don't you go back to
the one guy in this mix
483
00:31:11,896 --> 00:31:13,857
who actually admits
to being a murderer?
484
00:31:13,857 --> 00:31:15,584
The poser without a motive?
485
00:31:15,584 --> 00:31:16,820
Eames...
486
00:31:16,820 --> 00:31:22,080
We've seen the bitter fate
of being a one-hit wonder.
487
00:31:27,306 --> 00:31:32,180
Do you have any idea what was
on Kira's mind the night of the reading?
488
00:31:32,411 --> 00:31:35,386
What, you couldn't beat
an answer out of Lionel?
489
00:31:39,772 --> 00:31:41,962
He's mad at me.
490
00:31:41,962 --> 00:31:44,077
Is that because I went
after your mentor like that?
491
00:31:44,077 --> 00:31:47,182
Look, Kira was your friend.
492
00:31:47,182 --> 00:31:49,238
She was in trouble.
493
00:31:49,238 --> 00:31:50,941
She didn't tell you anything?
494
00:31:50,941 --> 00:31:53,476
I didn't have time to talk to her
before the reading.
495
00:31:53,476 --> 00:31:55,095
Then she hooked up with Sage.
496
00:31:55,095 --> 00:31:57,266
And when she called the restaurant?
497
00:31:57,266 --> 00:31:58,993
I didn't know she called.
498
00:31:58,993 --> 00:32:00,202
Phillip was holding court,
499
00:32:00,202 --> 00:32:05,309
telling stories about smoking pot
in the white house with Allen Ginsberg.
500
00:32:06,655 --> 00:32:10,895
Well, Shill told us
that she was distraught and...
501
00:32:10,895 --> 00:32:13,339
He didn't share that with you at all?
502
00:32:13,339 --> 00:32:15,899
Maybe he thought you'd
break out into a violent rage.
503
00:32:15,899 --> 00:32:18,183
You know, he showed you off
as his prized pupil,
504
00:32:18,183 --> 00:32:22,716
but maybe he thought deep down
you were still an animal.
505
00:32:24,559 --> 00:32:27,458
Let me do it. Here, come on.
Go ahead.
506
00:32:27,458 --> 00:32:29,245
- You don't wanna stand there.
- Come on. / Yeah?
507
00:32:29,245 --> 00:32:30,767
- Come on, TJ.
- Okay.
508
00:32:30,767 --> 00:32:32,543
Let's see what you got.
509
00:32:33,450 --> 00:32:35,006
Come on.
510
00:32:35,006 --> 00:32:36,943
Give it your best shot.
511
00:32:37,894 --> 00:32:39,881
That's it?
That's... that's what you have?
512
00:32:39,881 --> 00:32:41,877
Is that it? That's all he's got?
513
00:32:41,877 --> 00:32:43,778
Okay, maybe this'll make it
easier for you, look.
514
00:32:43,778 --> 00:32:45,713
Oh, Bobby...
515
00:32:46,684 --> 00:32:50,531
Sorry about the flies.
They're all over the place.
516
00:32:52,245 --> 00:32:55,436
Show me something. Come on.
517
00:32:58,406 --> 00:33:00,955
Show me something.
518
00:33:01,528 --> 00:33:04,406
I only start what I can finish.
519
00:33:09,875 --> 00:33:13,497
Well, I guess there weren't enough
cameras around for him to give us a show.
520
00:33:13,497 --> 00:33:15,773
Well, he gave us a tell.
521
00:33:15,773 --> 00:33:18,430
Turned his back
when he walked away.
522
00:33:19,005 --> 00:33:23,765
Which would have been the first thing
he'd learn not to do in the pen.
523
00:33:28,646 --> 00:33:31,633
Thank you very much. Ashkourak.
524
00:33:31,633 --> 00:33:33,163
You two punched in early.
525
00:33:33,163 --> 00:33:36,306
Well, they're seven hours
ahead of us in Yemen.
526
00:33:36,306 --> 00:33:40,917
The jail that TJ claims to have served time
in burned down in 2004.
527
00:33:40,917 --> 00:33:44,960
And the state department has no record
of TJ ever being in Yemen.
528
00:33:44,960 --> 00:33:48,485
I may be dense, but what has this
got to do with Kira Danforth?
529
00:33:48,485 --> 00:33:51,700
TJ's new book, "American delinquent".
530
00:33:51,700 --> 00:33:55,426
Now, he doesn't name
the juvie detention center,
531
00:33:55,426 --> 00:33:58,301
but he writes about it.
532
00:33:58,301 --> 00:34:02,352
He says that he could
smell raw meat from his cell.
533
00:34:02,702 --> 00:34:05,761
The produce and meat center
in the Bronx. It's Spofford.
534
00:34:05,761 --> 00:34:08,964
That's where D tour spent a year
for stealing a car.
535
00:34:08,964 --> 00:34:11,023
Now, I called D tour again
536
00:34:11,023 --> 00:34:14,785
and told him some of the things
that TJ says in this book.
537
00:34:14,785 --> 00:34:15,778
He laughed.
538
00:34:15,778 --> 00:34:18,291
TJ did enough research
to sound convincing.
539
00:34:18,291 --> 00:34:23,360
It was just his bad luck that Kira's
boyfriend was actually there.
540
00:34:23,360 --> 00:34:26,106
Okay, but how can she hurt him?
She's an unpublished writer.
541
00:34:26,106 --> 00:34:28,167
He's on the top of the best-seller list.
542
00:34:28,167 --> 00:34:31,055
But not with "American delinquent".
543
00:34:31,055 --> 00:34:33,963
The Daily Times hasn't
published a review yet.
544
00:34:33,963 --> 00:34:36,009
Powerhouse author like Hawkins,
545
00:34:36,009 --> 00:34:38,476
that review should have run
in time with the release.
546
00:34:38,476 --> 00:34:43,514
Unless whoever wrote it...
could turn it in.
547
00:34:44,567 --> 00:34:49,403
Okay, I should have told you
that Kira was going to review TJ's book.
548
00:34:49,403 --> 00:34:51,930
- In the Times.
- Yes.
549
00:34:51,930 --> 00:34:53,863
When did you tell TJ?
550
00:34:53,863 --> 00:34:55,669
I didn't.
551
00:34:56,231 --> 00:34:59,982
I didn't want TJ pressuring Kira.
It was too risky.
552
00:34:59,982 --> 00:35:04,559
The night that you took Kira out
after the reading...
553
00:35:04,559 --> 00:35:07,228
You knew that you didn't want
to represent her novel.
554
00:35:07,228 --> 00:35:09,593
TJ and Kira were friends.
555
00:35:09,593 --> 00:35:13,233
I would assume that
the review would be a rave, sure.
556
00:35:13,233 --> 00:35:15,832
But I wanted to cover my bases.
557
00:35:15,832 --> 00:35:19,330
Hey, any chance the Times
let you see that review?
558
00:35:19,330 --> 00:35:21,346
Kira never handed it in.
559
00:35:21,346 --> 00:35:24,335
It was due the day
after she was killed.
560
00:35:24,335 --> 00:35:26,605
Great! Just my luck.
561
00:35:26,605 --> 00:35:30,011
Now they're gonna have to reassign.
The thing could take weeks.
562
00:35:30,011 --> 00:35:34,118
Well, I'm sure you can come up with
someone else who can write it.
563
00:35:34,118 --> 00:35:37,148
- What are you saying?
- Well, Kira's unpublished.
564
00:35:37,148 --> 00:35:39,392
She couldn't have gotten
the gig at the Times
565
00:35:39,392 --> 00:35:41,894
unless someone cashed in a favor.
566
00:35:42,295 --> 00:35:46,176
The day they let agents
choose who's gonna review books
567
00:35:46,176 --> 00:35:49,570
is the day even I think
the business is too sleazy.
568
00:35:49,570 --> 00:35:53,289
Okay, if it wasn't you,
how'd Kira get the assignment?
569
00:35:53,289 --> 00:35:55,612
How did she get the assignment?
570
00:35:56,079 --> 00:36:00,076
Who do you think the Times
editor studied under?
571
00:36:00,769 --> 00:36:04,044
Shill got Kira assigned
to review his protege's book,
572
00:36:04,044 --> 00:36:06,749
Kira's first big break.
573
00:36:06,749 --> 00:36:08,516
Goren.
574
00:36:09,062 --> 00:36:12,165
Oh, is that right?
All right, thanks.
575
00:36:12,165 --> 00:36:14,748
Ballistics. They got a hit on that .22.
576
00:36:14,748 --> 00:36:16,794
They already ran that gun.
Came up empty.
577
00:36:16,794 --> 00:36:20,683
Yeah, in New York.
I had a friend run it in Jersey.
578
00:36:20,683 --> 00:36:24,403
Turns out, it was used
in the Newark riots to shoot a cop.
579
00:36:24,403 --> 00:36:26,801
That boy Shill taught in prison...
580
00:36:26,801 --> 00:36:30,623
He not only got a novel out of him.
He got the kid's gun?
581
00:36:30,623 --> 00:36:33,838
Same as the book, right? Kid gives
the teacher the gun for safekeeping.
582
00:36:33,838 --> 00:36:36,714
Kira was swimming with sharks.
Shill's a thief.
583
00:36:36,714 --> 00:36:38,578
TJ's a fraud...
584
00:36:38,578 --> 00:36:42,121
Either one of them could have taken
that gun to brooklyn.
585
00:36:46,482 --> 00:36:49,397
I wanted to open
with something memorable.
586
00:36:49,397 --> 00:36:52,374
Well, my dear, two things:
587
00:36:52,374 --> 00:36:54,491
First, it wasn't memorable.
588
00:36:54,491 --> 00:36:58,143
It was like Joyce Carol Oates on barbiturates.
589
00:36:58,143 --> 00:37:03,035
Secondly, your opening sentence
must be a promise of a truth worth reading.
590
00:37:03,035 --> 00:37:06,338
Anything less is blasphemy.
591
00:37:10,942 --> 00:37:14,197
They followed me in.
They have badges.
592
00:37:14,197 --> 00:37:16,416
We're in the middle of our salon.
593
00:37:16,416 --> 00:37:18,623
It's okay. I wanted to see the...
594
00:37:18,623 --> 00:37:23,140
Master at work, you know, plotting the...
psychological intrigue.
595
00:37:23,140 --> 00:37:26,430
The way that you manipulate lives, as if...
596
00:37:26,430 --> 00:37:31,096
They were characters in your own life novel
where you play god.
597
00:37:31,096 --> 00:37:33,356
Show some respect, Sherlock.
598
00:37:33,356 --> 00:37:35,242
Respect. That's important, isn't it?
599
00:37:35,242 --> 00:37:40,349
Where'd you learn that,
at that hellhole in Yemen or at Spofford?
600
00:37:40,349 --> 00:37:42,754
Hard time is hard time.
601
00:37:43,036 --> 00:37:44,917
Been good for you.
How's that second book...
602
00:37:44,917 --> 00:37:47,295
Oh, wait.
It hasn't really caught on fire yet.
603
00:37:47,295 --> 00:37:49,438
You still waiting on the Times review?
604
00:37:49,438 --> 00:37:52,940
A good friend like Kira singing your praises.
605
00:37:52,940 --> 00:37:55,491
That would have been a slam dunk.
606
00:37:55,491 --> 00:37:58,577
Did you know that
Mr. Shill got Kira the job,
607
00:37:58,577 --> 00:38:04,621
conned an editor friend of his over there
into glossing over Kira's conflict of interest?
608
00:38:04,621 --> 00:38:07,142
She was the perfect choice, wasn't she,
609
00:38:07,142 --> 00:38:10,902
because of her connection
to the material?
610
00:38:10,902 --> 00:38:14,514
I love Kira's life
spent a year in Spofford.
611
00:38:14,514 --> 00:38:18,513
She knows the truth
of that place, you know?
612
00:38:18,513 --> 00:38:20,433
When she read your book,
she saw it for what it was.
613
00:38:20,433 --> 00:38:22,616
It was pure fiction.
614
00:38:22,616 --> 00:38:25,861
Her expose would have
been front page news.
615
00:38:25,861 --> 00:38:28,722
So you had to stop that.
616
00:38:33,691 --> 00:38:36,734
How did you know that he was a fake?
617
00:38:36,734 --> 00:38:39,185
Did Kira tell you that,
or you figure that out on your own?
618
00:38:39,185 --> 00:38:42,155
You know this is absolute nonsense.
619
00:38:44,497 --> 00:38:45,986
Kira show you this?
620
00:38:45,986 --> 00:38:48,983
It's Kira's novel in progress.
Here.
621
00:38:48,983 --> 00:38:51,382
I'll take it.
622
00:38:51,805 --> 00:38:53,937
You should have a look at it.
623
00:38:53,937 --> 00:38:56,347
You'll recognize it.
624
00:38:56,347 --> 00:39:00,929
He stole her voice and her life.
He put his name on it.
625
00:39:03,735 --> 00:39:05,586
You're lying.
626
00:39:10,593 --> 00:39:12,681
Read it.
627
00:39:15,727 --> 00:39:19,094
Second call that she made to you...
628
00:39:19,094 --> 00:39:21,850
She had been beaten up, you know.
She was hurt. She was scared.
629
00:39:21,850 --> 00:39:24,456
She reached out to you,
and what did you do?
630
00:39:24,456 --> 00:39:27,310
I could not understand a word
she was saying.
631
00:39:27,310 --> 00:39:30,500
No, you showed TJ her review.
632
00:39:30,500 --> 00:39:34,359
Oh, TJ, they're trying to provoke you.
633
00:39:34,359 --> 00:39:36,547
Come on, TJ.
634
00:39:36,992 --> 00:39:39,778
He set you up to kill Kira,
635
00:39:39,778 --> 00:39:41,776
not because she was
gonna expose you,
636
00:39:41,776 --> 00:39:45,244
but because she was gonna expose him.
637
00:39:45,244 --> 00:39:48,334
You know, you don't wanna
read that thing? That's fine.
638
00:39:48,334 --> 00:39:52,440
Read Shill's.
Let's have a look at yours.
639
00:39:52,882 --> 00:39:55,502
"She rides the train to Midtown.
640
00:39:55,502 --> 00:40:00,401
"The other black women
in their secretary vest eye her.
641
00:40:00,401 --> 00:40:04,862
"Sample sale clothes.
Straightened hair."
642
00:40:04,862 --> 00:40:07,694
You son of a bitch.
643
00:40:07,987 --> 00:40:14,072
You knew I was down about my book,
afraid I was gonna... lose everything.
644
00:40:14,072 --> 00:40:16,656
He wound you up.
He gave you a gun.
645
00:40:16,656 --> 00:40:18,671
Where would I get a gun, TJ?
646
00:40:18,671 --> 00:40:22,564
Lamar Styles. Remember him?
647
00:40:22,967 --> 00:40:26,889
He shot a cop in the Newark riots in '67.
648
00:40:26,889 --> 00:40:30,640
The bullets they found in Kira
were from that same gun.
649
00:40:30,640 --> 00:40:33,654
He gave it to you, didn't he?
650
00:40:38,392 --> 00:40:40,547
Yes.
651
00:40:40,879 --> 00:40:43,945
But before he did,
he cut me a line of coke.
652
00:40:43,945 --> 00:40:46,576
I'd been clean for five years.
653
00:40:46,576 --> 00:40:49,288
He told me I deserved it.
654
00:40:49,288 --> 00:40:51,561
Then he cut another one.
655
00:40:51,561 --> 00:40:54,715
Told me to go get
the cigar box from his desk.
656
00:40:54,715 --> 00:40:57,646
Oh, you ingrate.
657
00:40:58,031 --> 00:41:01,148
He told me to take the piece.
658
00:41:03,120 --> 00:41:06,433
Be the man I wrote about.
659
00:41:10,507 --> 00:41:13,786
When I got to Kira's apartment, I...
660
00:41:13,786 --> 00:41:15,669
I confronted her about the review.
661
00:41:15,669 --> 00:41:18,239
Yeah, but she didn't want
to hear about any review.
662
00:41:18,239 --> 00:41:20,564
Not from a fraud like you.
663
00:41:20,564 --> 00:41:24,048
She told me I would never
be able to use a real gun
664
00:41:24,048 --> 00:41:26,790
'cause I wasn't real.
665
00:41:26,790 --> 00:41:31,238
She mocked me, taunted me.
666
00:41:31,238 --> 00:41:34,658
You needed to show her
that you were real.
667
00:41:34,658 --> 00:41:36,441
I pulled the trigger.
668
00:41:36,441 --> 00:41:39,805
But you didn't even have
the courage to finish the job.
669
00:41:39,805 --> 00:41:42,167
Kira bled to death.
670
00:41:42,167 --> 00:41:47,826
TJ Hawkins, you are under arrest
for the murder of Kira Danforth.
671
00:41:48,915 --> 00:41:54,264
Lionel Shill, you're under arrest
for conspiring in the murder of Kira Danforth.
672
00:41:54,264 --> 00:41:56,599
TJ.
673
00:41:56,599 --> 00:42:00,240
From my triumph to my Albatross.
674
00:42:04,019 --> 00:42:06,170
See those writers?
675
00:42:06,170 --> 00:42:09,371
They're gonna have a hell of a story.
676
00:42:09,421 --> 00:42:13,971
