All language subtitles for Elsbeth - 2x19

I'm so bored. It's like...

I could do whatever I want.

Everybody knows
I could do whatever I want.

Anything cool.

The problem is,

if it sounds like a new idea,

I probably already
crossed it off my bucket list.

I darted zebras from a helicopter

in South Africa's Tswalu game reserve.

Come on.

Come on.

The darts, they don't even kill them.

For my 16th birthday,

I filled my car up with one
hundred dollar bills and drove

through the desert with the top down.

Boring.

I hooked up with TruRose
after the Grammys.

That's right.
An hour after the after-party,

she was naked in my hotel room.

Eh.

She wanted to meet up again

when she was back in New York,
but why? Why?

I mean, second dates, they're not,

they're not on the bucket list.

Dude, you're a mess.

I'm just being truthful. Been there,

I've done that. You should try

- other award shows, you know.
- The Oscars,

the-the Tonys.
Put that on your bucket list.

- I have a Tony.
- Yeah, sort of.

- Yeah, I am a Tony winner.
- 'Cause you invested in a show

with, like, 30 other producers.

I was on stage when they were
handing out the awards, wasn't I?

In the lobby.

On camera, but, uh, the point is, I'm...

I'm out of ideas.

It's like I'm dead inside.

Hey! Look at that! Look at that.

I'm just a... I'm a hair off center.

- No way.
- Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Oh, yeah!

Check it out.

All right, all right.

I mean, who says
I'm not good at this, right?

You moron.

You almost killed me. Bro, look.

I almost killed you.

Yeah. Well, help me up.

Yeah.

Um... Aw, geez.

Whoa, hey, hey, hey.

It's all right, all right?
Don't-don't worry about it.

I'm sure you feel awful.

- Yeah.
- Yeah?

Yeah, sure.

Whew.

Who's it gonna be?

What'd we win, Nana?

Five dollars.

What the hell?

All right, thank you so much.
I'll check it out.

- Good morning.
- Elsbeth.

I wasn't expecting you to be here.

Why not?

Well, after what happened
with Judge Crawford,

I thought you might want to take a beat

before jumping back into another case.

And do what? Sit around and worry

about the state of the world all day?

I'm just saying, I understand

if you want to sit this
one out. You know?

Oh. Thank you, but I'm okay.

Really. It's like the captain said,

we need to do what we can each day,

- and that's what I'm doing.
- See?

Okay.

This is our gunshot victim.

A sanitation worker found him.

He looks so young.

Several people
have seen him in the area.

Said he was living out of the van.

Could be a runaway.

Have you checked the van
for identification?

I was waiting on you.

Let's open it up.

Whoa.

What kind of runaway
has a van like this?

Huh. Well, I guess this is one way

to have a nice apartment in the city.

I don't think money
was a problem for this guy.

Apparently, he's royalty.

Our victim is one Wilhelm Von Hofer,

Prince of Lichtenburg.

One cortado, shaken
over heavy ice, please.

Oh. This is early for you, isn't it?

- Uh, I'm just, I'm feeling energized.
- Huh.

What do you say we gather the boys,

jump in the Gulfstream,
head to the Swiss Alps?

What's gotten into you?

I guess I'm...

I got bored of being bored.

The people of Lichtenburg

have just learned
Prince Wilhelm Von Hofer

was gunned down on the streets
of New York last night.

- A prince?
- Von Hofer, worth an estimated

$3.4 billion and known

for his zest for life,

had been enjoying life
among real New Yorkers

before commencing his official duties.

Hmm. See that?

The plebes are coming for us, bro.

We need to increase our security.

Police have not named a suspect,
and the gunman

appears to be at large.

But, like, I wouldn't worry
too much about it.

Why-why... why would I be worried?

I'm just saying, whoever shot that dude

is gonna fry.

You can't shoot a royal
and expect to get away with it.

I-I'd like to believe you, okay?

Um... but the NYPD, they're just...

they're all a bunch of clowns. It's...

I'm... I just remembered,
I got to go. Sorry.

- Wait, Rod.
- Just put it, put it on my tab.

So, apparently,

Lichtenburg is one of the
wealthiest countries in Europe.

Well, it's near Switzerland,
I think, so that makes sense.

Given how nice this van is,

you'd think it was a robbery-homicide.

Except, Von Hofer's wallet
and all these fancy electronics

were left untouched.

Maybe the shooter thought
he was a runaway, like we did.

True. He didn't look like a royal.

Yeah.

And, um, this street isn't exactly

where you would expect to find a prince.

So, Von Hofer was shot twice.
Once in his ear,

and once in his chest.

Looks like one bullet struck the van.

Techs haven't found any casings.

A shooter collecting casings

to cover his tracks,
that sounds targeted,

not random, and the ShotSpotter

never went off. It suggests
the shooter used a suppresser.

To dampen the sound.

Okay, so...

the shooter sees Von Hofer
approach the van. Bang!

Fires and misses.

Right, and then bang!

Fires again, hits him in the ear. Bang!

No, no.

No, no, no. Hang on.

Elsbeth?

Elsbeth?

Sorry.

Uh, excuse me. Um...

I'm just gonna take a mo... a moment.

Just one second.

Hey, uh... Excuse me, have you heard

what the cops are saying about this?

Uh... Huh?

No. Um...

Not much. There doesn't appear
to be a ton of evidence.

So they don't know who did it?

No, not yet. It's so awful, though.

Yeah, well, typical New York, right?

That's not actually
a fair characterization.

- Statistically speaking...
- Elsbeth.

I'm gonna head back to the precinct.

Oh, okay. I'll come with.

Wait, wait. You're-you're a cop?
You-you didn't...

you didn't say you were a cop.

You didn't ask.

And I'm not a cop. I'm a lawyer.

I work with the police, overseeing...

investigations.

Are you somehow related to the victim?

Me? No. No, no. I've...

never even heard of him.

That's strange.

And why is that?

Well, uh, it's just unusual
for someone to get out

of a fancy car

to look at a crime scene.

What did you say? Uh,

"Ronaldo, pull over.
I want to see a dead body"?

I guess I'm just a curious person.

Yes, you are.

Actually, um...

I'm in the process of buying

the-the warehouse across the street.

Oh. That one?

- Mm-hmm.
- Huh. That's funny.

I don't see a "For Sale" sign.

Yeah, well, uh, trust me.

Everything is for sale.

That's depressing.

Why?

Well, because if everything
is for sale, then...

nothing's really precious, is it?

So, uh, you're a developer then?

Um...

No, actually, my family is in

the gun manufacturing business.
Uh, here.

Oh, that family.

You must hate it when something
like this happens.

Oh, y... Absolutely. It's just...

Ugh.

If you need anything,
a-ask any questions

about guns or ammunition,

- please, please call.
- Oh, look at that.

Most people hate talking to the NYPD.

Uh, no. I'm-I'm just
trying to do my part

to help clean up the city.

Oh, that's admirable. Okay, well...

I don't want to keep my friend waiting.

So...

it was nice to meet you, Rod Bedford,

well-to-do looky-loo.

Yeah. And-and what's your name?

Elsbeth Tascioni.

Elsbeth Tascioni. Pleasure.

sync and corrections by solfieri
www.addic7ed.com

- I knew it.
- What?

That warehouse
Rod Bedford was gonna buy?

It's owned by the city.
Definitely not for sale.

So, he lied.

Ms. Tascioni. Detective Blanke.

This is Agent Wes McCarthy

of ICE's Transnational Crime
Investigative Unit.

Better known as the TCIU.

"Better known"?

Agent McCarthy will be overseeing

the Von Hofer case.

This investigation is taking precedent

over the situation in Greenland.

What situation in Greenland?

Uh, I'm not at liberty to discuss it.

I've been in contact
with Lichtenburg's royal family,

and given the delicate balance of power

between our two countries,

we can't have any leaks about this case.

"Balance of power"?

Let me be clear.

No unauthorized images or details

are to be released without
the royal family's approval.

To that end, is there someplace
more private we can talk?

The lack of shell casings
and the possibility

a silencer was used suggests
this was an assassination.

Carried out by a member of Lichtenburg's

Crown Free Movement.

It's a terror cell
that wants to end the monarchy

and give women equal rights
to inherit property.

There's a country in Europe

where women can't inherit property?

Royal women. The Princely House
follows male primogeniture.

So this terror cell
is made up of princesses?

We should call Disney.

It seems unlikely
they'd send an assassin

to kill a prince on
American soil, doesn't it?

We're talking about a country
of 40,000 people.

That's smaller than
Hackensack, New Jersey.

Plus, it took three shots
to kill Von Hofer.

What kind of trained assassin
has terrible aim?

A woman, obviously.
The assassin used a lady gun.

A lady gun?

Bullets are from a .25.
That's a small-caliber weapon.

It sports a smaller grip, less kick,

easier for women to handle.

Or a man with tiny hands.

A group of women matching the
description of the terror cell

was spotted in New York a few days ago.

Oh. Where?

Café table at Starbucks.

So this scary terrorist cell
fits at a four-top?

Size has nothing
to do with it, Detective.

Oh, that's rarely true.

A .25 is small, but it's still lethal.

Okay, the Crown Free Movement
could be responsible,

sure, but it's so early in the case.

Shouldn't we consider
other suspects as well?

Sounds like you have someone
particular in mind.

There was this man named Rod Bedford

who visited the crime scene...

By visited the crime scene,
you mean a looky-loo?

Technically, yes.

Clearly, you have no experience
with international crime. I do.

Okay. It is worth
checking out all paths.

I'll start with tracing the gun,

which I'm willing to bet money

is a Swiss-made brand
popular with terror cells.

You can talk to some guy you saw.

Great. Thank you.

Well, Agent "Women Have Poor Aim"

is right about one thing.

The murder seems planned.

So if your guy Rod is
our suspect, what's his motive?

To figure that out, we'd have
to know how they're connected,

and Rod claimed not to know the prince.

Well, he lied about wanting
to buy the warehouse.

He could be lying about that, too.

Officer Reynolds, we need you to check

into Rod Bedford's social media.

The guy from the crime scene?

See if the prince and Rod
are connected somehow.

- Maybe Rod friended or followed him.
- On it.

And we can go talk to Rod
about that "lady gun" idea.

Mm. You go.

I need to check into Agent McCarthy's

"angry feminist theory."

Transnational nonsense.

Excuse me, ma'am, members only.

Uh, Ace, Ace, it's okay.
She's a guest of mine.

Hi.

Welcome to the Canister Club.
Uh, gentlemen,

this lady is always welcome here.

Whoa.

Uh... Am I still in Manhattan?

Or did I get transported
to the O.K. Corral?

You-You've never heard of "the room"?

No. I guess I haven't.

Well, in addition to being a cigar bar

and a whiskey tasting lounge,
Canister Club

has an indoor shooting range on site.

Uh, that's not possible.
Not in New York City.

Guns are strictly banned
in establishments

where alcohol is consumed.

Anything's possible
with the right connections to...

To money.

Come on. I'll-I'll give you a tour.

Uh, a tour of "the room"? No, thank you.

I've, uh, already seen enough.

Smart woman.

Last time I was in there
with this guy, I almost died.

- Colin.
- It's true.

Bullet went right through my sleeve.

Let's, uh, let's show her
the video, Rod.

I made him apologize on camera.

No, she didn't come here
to see some dumb video, okay?

She's with the NYPD.

Oh, then she definitely needs to see it.

Maybe she'll charge you
with mishandling a firearm.

- Ah.
- Well, now, I reallywant to see it.

What's the latest on the case?

Have you, uh, identified the shooter?

No. Not yet.

We did identify
the type of gun used, though.

Small-caliber handgun,
most likely a .25.

So, ICE's TCI Unit

thinks the shooter's
a woman with bad aim.

Small-caliber guns
are not just for women.

Well, the agent called it a "lady gun."

Sure. Some firearms
are targeted towards women,

but, uh, yeah,

we have a whole line of feminine colors.

It sells well, but a .25
is not a-a lady gun.

- And I can't find the video. I'm...
- It was, like,

your most liked post.

- I...
- This guy is terminally online.

Lucky for him, there was
no Twitter in boarding school.

Is that how you two know
each other? Boarding school?

- Yeah.
- Well, I mean, I thought I was spoiled,

and then I meet this guy,
who offers to fly friends

to private parties
at the pyramids at 13.

And he's been tagging along ever since.

Oh, I'm sorry. I don't mean to be nosy,

but was that Martha Stewart?

Oh, yeah, she did a tablescape for me.

- What?
- Eh.

Was it for a special occasion or...?

No, no, just-just a dinner.

I was dating a girl.
She thought it would be cool.

It wasn't.

It was not.

"#b-list."

Wow, if that's the "b-list,"
I'd love to see the "a-list."

No, no, B-B stands for, uh, "bucket."

Oh.

Where is this?

That's my house in Amagansett.

Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande

performed "Defying Gravity"
in your living room?

- I know.
- Talk about a bucket list item.

Oh, that reminds me, I...

I have to mark that one off. Yes.

That's a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

You don't even seem that excited.

Well, it-it's kind of awkward
being that close to them.

They only... They kept making
each other cry. Colin was there.

I don't know what he's talking
about. It was awesome.

- LAUGHS)
- It-it seemed like

it was more about them than me.

You can literally do anything.

You can make any dream

come true.

It suddenly occurs to me that

maybe that isn't such a blessing.

What can I say? I-It's...
it's not easy being me.

- Oh.
- Yeah. But don't fret.

I recently found something
I enjoy immensely.

Ooh, what's that?

Talking to you about
the murder case, of course.

And what would be even better

is to see the investigation up close.

Are-are you talking,
like-like, ride-along?

- Yeah. Yeah.
- Because if so, I'm-I'm so in.

I, uh, I will admit I am
a "more the merrier" type,

but the last time someone tagged along,

it didn't end well, so...

- Oh, that's too bad.
- But I promise

that if I have any additional questions,

I will reach out.

Uh... Uh.

My phone.

Oh. I didn't even realize I had that.

Um, can you send me that
"Defying Gravity" video?

Sure. Do you want the extended cut?

- Thanks.
- Sure.

Get home safe.

Detective Blanke, a moment, please.

I've been looking into those,
uh, passed over princesses...

- It's not about the case.
- Oh.

Then what is it about?

It's been brought to my
attention that Captain Kershaw

presented you with a job offer.

Outside this precinct.

Captain Kershaw
did raise the possibility

of me joining a special task force,

not until the end of the year.

I was gonna tell you.

I've been told that a spot
just opened up.

On the task force?

Training begins right away.

As a captain,

you never want to lose a good detective,

but...

it'll be a hell
of an opportunity for you.

So, you have a decision to make.

Can I think about it?

Captain Kershaw
will need an answer by Friday.

Wow. Okay.

Camera footage of
the Von Hofer crime scene?

Mm-hmm. From the warehouse
across the street.

Stop. There. Look.

That doesn't look like a woman.

- You can't tell from that angle.
- I'd say you can.

Well, we should at least
circulate the image.

See if anyone recognizes him.

Or her.

I'll have to check
with the royal family.

I found something on social media.

A connection between Rod and the prince?

No. Neither one of them
followed the other

or had friends in common,
but someone named Ivan Dieter

posted this comment on a news
story about Von Hofer's murder.

"That's what happens
when everybody dresses

"in hoodies and crappy high-tops.

"Don't expect your privilege to save you

if you don't dress the part."

It's odd 'cause the fact that Von Hofer

was wearing crappy high-tops
at the time of the murder

- was never released to the public.
- You're right.

Von Hofer's royal portrait
is the only photo

that's been circulating.

Ivan Dieter obviously didn't realize

those high-tops cost, like, $1,800.

These shoes cost $1,800?

You never heard of "poor core"?

It's a fashion trend.

Designer fits made
to look old and dirty.

So now rich people
are cosplaying being poor?

I thought this Ivan Dieter
must be the killer.

How else would he know the
shoes Von Hofer was wearing

at the time of the murder?

But Ivan Dieter isn't a real person.

- What does that mean?
- As far as I can tell,

he's just a social media bot

designed to increase the engagement

of rich guys and promote
the future of A.I.

Look at this. Rod let some kids

take a photo next to his sports car.

Here's a comment from Ivan Dieter.

"Look at Rod-man, a champion
of the less fortunate."

So, basically, Ivan Dieter
is a social media hype bot.

And the only connection
between Rod and the prince.

Okay, I know we still
don't have a motive,

but the man in that alley

could be Rod, right?

Maybe.

But how do we prove it?

Aw.

Where was I when it happened?
I... I was here.

And I-I would

show you the security footage,
but they don't,

they don't allow cameras in here.

Oh, yeah, I noticed.

It's one of the best parts about
an exclusive club like this.

You know, nothing stupid
I say or do goes viral.

But, wait, wait, wait, why...

why are you asking me where I was?

You-you already have a suspect.

We do?

Y-Yeah, the media keeps speculating

about this all-female
Crown Free Movement.

That's the TCIU's theory.

- Uh... Oh.
- Shoot.

And you're-you're not buying it?

The lady assassin narrative
doesn't really fit

with what we saw
on the surveillance cameras.

Whoa, that one got away from you.

Yeah. Uh, y-you have
surveillance footage?

I didn't, I didn't hear that.

Yeah, we do.

There are cameras all over these days.

I'm sure it'll get out there
soon enough.

I-ICE outranks the NYPD, though,

so you have to follow their lead, right?

If the evidence points that way,

but right now, it doesn't.

Wow.

What a shot.

- You are good.
- Thanks.

An investigation

into the slain prince of Lichtenburg

intensifies tonight.

Speculation that
that country's anti-monarch

Crown Free Movement

is somehow involved in the killing

continues to circulate,

but authorities have no proof.

See? "Men Against the Crown."

They have allies now. They're growing.

Oh, so now you admit it's a man
in the camera footage.

I have no problem
admitting when I'm wrong.

On the rare occasions when I am.

Don't you think
it's rather convenient, though?

Right after you circulate
the security camera image...

With the cooperation
of the royal family.

This note gets sent to us
on extremely fine...

paper.

Wait one second.

The quality of this paper stock

is awfully similar to this card.

That's astounding.

The Crown Free Movement

and your looky-loo both enjoy
fine paper products.

I've got the A.I. report
back on the note.

And?

The words and images were cut out

from two different magazines,

Gilded Gotham and Mega Yacht Monthly.

Magazines for uber-rich New Yorkers.

Lichtenburgers own yachts.

Isn't it landlocked?

Not every yacht in Ibiza
belongs to Russian oligarchs.

Come on.

You have to admit these details
point to Rod Bedford

as much as they point
to the Crown Free Movement.

The Crown Free Movement has
something Rod Bedford doesn't,

a motive. Tell me, Ms. Tascioni,

why would the heir to a gun manufacturer

want to kill the Serene Highness?

- Why?
- I don't know.

Exactly. There's no connection
between them. Face it,

your looky-loo is not our suspect.

Detective Blanke?

Agent McCarthy has a point.

Well, I'm sorry, but you're wrong.

She's been through a lot.

Lichtenburg, that doesn't sound
like a real place.

Ugh. If you've never heard
of it, then I guess you and Rod

- haven't gone there as travel buddies.
- Nope.

Did the Von Hofers, the royal family,

ever visit the club?

Mm, the first time I heard the
name Von Hofer was on the news.

But if I thought Lichtenburg
could get a rise out of Rod,

we'd go there in a heartbeat.

I swear the only time I ever
saw Rod show any emotion at all

was, uh, when he almost shot me.

Is that right?

Finally something to get
the adrenaline pumping.

But, you know, don't get me wrong,

Rod's, uh, he's a great friend,

just everything bores him.

But it's not his fault.
He's had courtside seats

to the Knicks since
he was five years old.

He's got a private key to
the Sistine Chapel.

- The Sistine Chapel?
- Yeah. Sick, right?

But when you have that much,

you're bound to find
a lot of life underwhelming.

And when you do find something
that really engages you,

that gets your adrenaline pumping,

you probably want to
do it again, don't you?

That was Captain Kershaw.

She's concerned that
she hasn't heard from you yet.

What's going on, Detective?

I don't think I can accept her offer.

Is it Cameron?

You are still dating, right?

Yes.

Cameron's been great. I told him

it'll require extensive training in D.C.

and undercover assignments, and he just,

he acted like it was no big deal.

Honestly, I'm not sure
how I feel about that.

The man spends his day with dead bodies.

And I thought his lack of excess emotion

was one of the things
you liked about him.

Well, you're not wrong.

If it isn't Cameron, what is it?

Captain, I've barely had a chance

to enjoy having my gold shield.

Things are moving quickly.

It's because of your mentorship
that I'm even here,

and for me to just jump ship?

It doesn't feel right.

Well, I'm not gonna pretend that
I am happy about losing you,

but certain opportunities
change the trajectory

of a whole career,

and this is one of them.

The task force
does sound really amazing.

Then call Captain Kershaw
before it goes away.

Okay.

I will.

There's still one other problem.

How am I gonna tell Elsbeth?

What is it?

He's trying to feel something.

What are we talking about now?

Rod was searching for an experience

to add to his bucket list,

something that would invigorate him,

and it was murder.

- Ms. Tascioni... Uh, okay, but...
- That's the motive.

Can we skip the part where
you try and shut me down?

Because if we don't stop him
now, he'll do it ag...

Ms. Tascioni!

It's over.

What?

The Crown Free Movement claimed credit

for killing the prince.

That can't be.

As of now, the TCI Unit

considers this case solved.

- Hey.
- Hey.

Just wanted to check in with you.

Are you okay?

Yeah, I'm fine.

Well, I was waiting until the
case came to a stopping point,

and now that it appears it has,

I wanted to tell you...

I accepted an offer to join
a special task force

with Captain Kershaw's precinct.

I notified her this morning.

Wow. A special task force.

That's a big deal.

It is.

But I wanted to tell you,

even though we won't be
working together,

we can still get together for Froyo
when I'm not on assignment.

Oh, no, don't worry about that.

Of course...

I'm sad to leave.

Don't be sad.

This is a, this is
an incredible opportunity.

But are you sure?

Maybe I could postpone.

Just, with everything
that you went through...

Will you stop?

I'm happy for you.

Will you excuse me a moment?

I just have to go talk to the captain.

Okay.

Captain Wagner.

I think we need to request
a warrant for Rod's notebook.

I know what you're gonna say...

"No" is what I'm gonna say.

He puts his bucket list down in writing.

The TCIU already has its man,
or in this case, women.

- You know they're not responsible.
- Do I?

They're only taking credit
so it'll help their cause.

Look, I know better
than to dismiss your instincts,

but there's nothing we can do.

He's a killer.

Captain, he killed a man because
he thought it would be a hoot.

But he's rich and powerful,

so I guess it doesn't matter.

It does matter.

Then let's do something about it.

- And trample the TCIU's investigation?
- Why not?

Other guys trample the rules
all the time.

This is not about Judge Crawford.

It seems breaking the rules

is the only way
to get justice these days.

Ms. Tascioni, now is not
the time to overreach.

What happened with Crawford

put this entire department
under scrutiny.

You're right.

It's fine.

Some people get away with anything,

and Kaya is leaving,
and that's fine. It's all fine.

Ms. Tascioni.

Where is she going?

I don't know.

I'm looking for Rod Bedford.

He's in "the room."

If you wait, I'll let
him know you're here.

I'd appreciate that.

Hey! What do you think you're doing?

Rod! Uh... I was just, um...

Trying to steal my notebook.

You have no right to be here.

I thought I was always welcome.

I heard you were talking to
my buddy Colin about the prince,

whether I'd been to Lichtenburg,

when I already told you
I didn't know him.

That's right.

Because, if you did,

you would know that he wasn't
a nobody living in a van.

Colin, call the police.
This woman's harassing me.

Do it!

You were...

You were trying to look
at my bucket list, weren't you?

You know what? And since

I'm such a nice guy,
I'm gonna let you have it.

It won't do you any good, though.

You ripped out the pages.

Oh, I did? Yeah,
but I'm sure there's a few there

that you can use
for your fake police work.

Look at me, giving
to the less fortunate.

Oh. You can arrest her.

Officer Reynolds. You got here fast.

Captain asked me to keep
an eye on you. I was outside.

Good. Because, uh,
I was a little worried

until I saw it was you.

I'm sorry.

Wait. What? Ow.

Is this real?

You're under arrest
for criminal harassment.

But I have tickets to Oh, Mary!

Keys. Wallet.

Evidence bags?

Oh. I work with the police.

Notebook.

Plastic cigar.

It's a chew toy for my dog.

Chew toy.

And a fuzzy hat.

Please spell your last name.

Uh, T-A-S-C-I-O-N-I.

Any aliases?

No, but I did have an imaginary friend

when I was little.

Her name was Belinda.

She loved my tea parties.

Wait.

That's it.

When do I get my phone call?

All rise for the Honorable
Judge Edwin Dousant.

Good morning.

We seem to be starting

with the arraignment
and bail determination

of The People V. Elsbeth Tascioni.

Tascioni?

Yes, Your Honor?

I seem to recall
that an "Elsbeth Tascioni"

was at the courthouse

when the Honorable
Milton Crawford was slain.

Am I right, Ms. Tascioni?

Yes, Your Honor.

That wasn't a coincidence, was it?

A coincidence?

A yes or no will do.

Yes. No. I mean, no.

Are you requesting
a court-appointed attorney

for these proceedings?

No, I will be representing
myself, Your Honor.

Uh-huh.

And you're asking

to be released on your own recognizance?

New York City eliminated cash bail

for most misdemeanors, so...

But you have been accused of...
harassing

a witness in a case

the Transnational
Crime Investigative Unit

was investigating, correct?

Technically.

In my opinion,

that makes this a felony crime,
not a misdemeanor.

But given recent reforms, bail or remand

in felony cases are only considered

in extraordinary circumstances.

Such as, uh...

prior arrests

and patterns of misconduct, which

you seem to have, Ms. Tascioni.

I was arrested once

for harassment in Chicago years ago...

While you've been in our fair city,

you've been fraternizing
with the likes of Delia Kirby,

who is charged with first degree murder

of my...

my friend and colleague.

- Your Honor...
- The court finds that bail is denied.

The defendant is remanded to custody.

Rod Bedford or...

would you prefer Ivan Dieter?

This-this is a private club.

You can't come in like this.

Oh, you don't want your friends to know

you created an imaginary friend

to comment on your own posts?

Big fan of Rod's.

Except he doesn't really exist.

It wasn't enough for Rod to gloat online

about his wealth for hugs and likes,

you had to create an imaginary friend.

I was juicing my engagement.

That is not a crime.

Problem is...

Ivan Dieter...

mentioned a detail

about Wilhelm Von Hofer
that only the killer would know.

Von Hofer, the prince?

"That's what happens
when everybody starts

"wearing hoodies and crappy high-tops.

"Don't expect your privilege to save you

if you can't even dress the part."

The fact that he was wearing
high-tops was never reported.

You got to be kidding me.

Rod Bedford,
we're placing you under arrest

for the murder of Wilhelm Von Hofer.

Hands behind your back.

Bro, you shot a prince.

He looked like a loser.

So you thought he didn't matter?

That is not for you
or anyone else to decide.

How? How?

How did you figure it out?

I got a phone call from jail.

Let's go.

Now that the Crown Free Movement
no longer poses a threat

to New York, my work here is done.

So you admit your angry feminists

were never really a threat?

The leaders of the Crown Free
Movement acknowledged

they never touched the prince.

Nor have they ever visited New York.

But their false claim of responsibility

did wake up their country.

He's right.

The Lichtenburg royal family
has fled to Albania

and the people are celebrating
the fall of the monarchy.

The wall is coming down.

I wish you could've seen

the way Rod's rich friends looked

when we cuffed him.

And thanks to Detective Blanke,

the prosecutor has a rock-solid case.

Well, without
Judge Crawford blocking us,

we were able to get a warrant
to search Rod's brownstone.

We found the gun, .25 caliber.

We also found his hoodie
along with some pieces

of the magazines he used for the note.

Oh, and we got the
shooting range shut down, too.

Mm, it was illegal as hell.

It's a big win, Elsbeth.

And it's because of you.

I mean, I'm glad we closed the case.

But we all know a guy like Rod

is not gonna do jail time.

Not with his money.

He's probably already out on bail.

I know it's not fun in here.

Even for you, who can make anything fun.

And we are working to get you out.

In the meantime, we need you

to keep your head in the game.

And pretend

that the scales of justice
are fair and balanced?

Crawford wasn't brought to justice.

No, but Delia will be.

The war isn't over.

Now, you, with all your expertise,

know better than all of us.

So just remember who you are
and what you stand for.

Okay.

I'm sorry.

I've been in such a dark place lately,

which is so weird for me.

I mean, it's not that weird,
but it's weird for me to show it.

It's okay to wallow for a bit.

Just don't get stuck there.

Okay, thank you, both of you.

Kaya.

What am I gonna do without you?

I have faith in you, Elsbeth.

There's one other thing.

They're transferring you
to another facility.

Oh, no.

Is it far away?

Midtown Detention Center.

Oh.

That means...

You're gonna be housed right alongside

some of the very murderers
you helped put away.

You mean...?

Oh.

Oh.

Oh.
