All language subtitles for Da Vinci`s Inquest - 01x06 - We All Fall Down.eng

[ theme music playing ]

[ church bells chiming ]

Wait, I'll get
Your door.

I'm in already.

How was mass?

Father pete wants me
To bring your dad
To seniors' night.

[ laughs ]

You're still okay
About this afternoon,
Right?

She's not too young,
Is she?

Ma, you want a caregiver
Who's young.

I don't want a caregiver,
You want a caregiver.

Just promise me,
Okay,

If she shows up
At that door,
You'll let her in.

Pardon me for living.

I must have just
Fallen out of the hearse.

Ma, I'm only thinking
Of you here, okay?

[ telephone ringing ]

Hi, it's da vinci.
Just hold one second,
Okay?

Ma, you're stuck
In the house
All day long

Looking after pop.
It's not fair.

Who's thinking of you?

Yeah. What?

What?

Oh my god.
Where?

Any sign of the owners yet?

No, fire department's
Running the address.

How about the press?
What do they know?

Just what they're getting
From the neighbors.

I want them kept
As far away as possible,
Please.

- who called you guys?
- the first uniforms
On the scene.

They found a basement door
That had been jimmied open.

Leary's taking a look at it.
It could be arson.

There were three other fires
In the neighborhood
A few months ago.

Nothing since then.
We never got the guy.

A couple of suspects
We're aware of.

Yeah. Henry and I
Went through with chick
And the boys

In the bunny suits.

We're looking at crim neg
On the owners at least.

- you going to
Take me through?
- I'm going to do that.

Hey, that's okay with me.
It's not an easy take.

About 3:00 a.M.,
A cocktail waitress

Who lives across the street
Gets home from work.

She smells smoke,
Looks over here,

Sees it leaking out
Onto the roof, the doors,
Calls 911.

Her husband tries
To get in the front door,
Which is locked.

Number two pump
And truck arrive.

Number six crashes
Right behind.

The fire was contained
To a single room,

The hallway and stairs
On the main floor.

So please tell me
There are survivors.

Husband found
Two women survivors
In the backyard.

They're at the hospital.

How many dead?

First-in firefighters
Counted 10 bodies.

Jesus wept.

One staff member,
Nine residents.

But that doesn't
Jive with this--

Names and
Room assignments--

- 14, not including
The staff.
- 14.

So 14...

There's still three
Unaccounted for here.

Right.
If they're in there,
We didn't find them.

Oh, my god.

Makes you think, huh?

Yeah, about
Our pension fund.

- what's with your steel bar?
- yeah, go figure.

They locking people out or in?
I don't get this.

- is it a break-in
To you or what?
- absolutely.

- take a look
At this right here.
- oh oh.

That's been pried
Open by something--

- most likely
A screwdriver.
- interesting.

Fire investigator said we'd
Take a walk through
When you got here.

- okay.
- said I should go
Along this time.

I'll just finish my survey,
And then I'll get dirty.

Jesus, he almost
Made it out the door.

It wouldn't have mattered.

No suicide bar.

Firefighters
Had to chop their way in.

Windows are all
Nailed shut, too.

That's crim neg
Causing death.

Whoever's
Responsible for this

Deserves a piece of that hell
That's waiting for them.

There's four
Bedrooms upstairs,
Two down here--

All double occupancy.
There's call bells
By their beds,

No way of knowing
If they're working yet.

The office
Is this way.

Any special memories
That I missed

You kids want
In your yearbooks,
Let me know.

Yeah, stick close.

Oh, look at this.

Looks like she
Just fell asleep
When she was studying.

How come she couldn't
Smell the smoke?

The... The carbon monoxide
Mixes with your hemoglobin,

Starves the cells
Of oxygen.

It's almost like
You suffocate internally,

You just can't wake up.

How come she's the only
Staff member for 14?
Do you realize that?

Looks that way.

Come here.
Take a boo at this.

For 14 people...

Jean-jacques rousseau--
"Du contract social".

This ain't exactly
The contract he had in mind.

"Man is free,
But everywhere
In chains."

That's rousseau,
Right?

[ water dripping ]

A woman,
I think.

It's a locket.

Give me some light.

Sorry about this,
Sweetheart.

- it's melted.
- yeah?

Yeah.

No inscription.

I can't get it-- oh.

Could be a picture of her
When she was young.

Whoever that is...
She was pretty.

You notice how the burned area
Fans out from the chair?

Yeah.

Now, it could be she was
Smoking and fell asleep.

Or--
See the electric heater?

Maybe it was
Too close to the chair.

Then there's this.

Oh, I see
What you mean.

So somebody came in here,
Squirted the old woman,

And chucked the lighter,
Which is here, and left.

Well, if it is arson,
It's an amateur.

Lighter fluid's
An iffy accelerant.

The ignition's
Unreliable.

The chair looks like
Some kind of synthetic.

Maybe that fake leather
Is pure poison when it
Starts to smoke.

God knows.
So what are we looking at?
10, 20 minutes?

Oh, it's hard to say.

Doesn't take long
For the heat and gases

To build up
Along the ceiling,

And leak into the rest
Of the house.

When somebody
Opens the door,
Smashes the window,

The room gets a draft of air,
The whole place flashes fire.

- so she might
Have gone quick.
- mmm.

- [ sighs ]
- wow.

Stumbling around
In the dark...

Scared,
Looking for a way out.

So much for
The social safety net.

There's four more
In here.

Two of them look
Like a married couple.

Dodominic, better come here
A minute.

Mother of god.

They're tied
To the beds.

They're tied
To the damn beds.

You okay,
Mick?

The neighbor said
Some kid got popped

For breaking in here
About a month ago.

- that's good.
- yeah?

- uh-huh.
- what?

- [ telephone ringing ]
- okay.

Jesus.

Whiteside.

Elderly care international--
That's the corporation.

I called twice,
But voice mail.

Address out in burnaby.
You want it?

All I saw was
My mother in there.

Me, my pop.

"Our commitment
Is to care...

Private suites."

Hey, I know you.
Danny leary, right?

Right.
Angela, right?

- yeah.
- what are you doing?

I've just got the day off.
I had some errands to run,
Do some banking. You?

I'm going to look at
A location for a nightclub.
You got some time?

I'd love your opinion.
I'm still new to vancouver.

- uh, yeah, sure. I've got
A couple of hours.
- all right.

What kind of club
Were you thinking of?

Live music,
A place to hang out,
You know?

Good food, good times.
I'm a chef, that's my thing.

Really? So what kind of food
Do you specialize in?

[ sirens blaring ]

- I just talked to leary.
- yeah?

The owners cleaned
Out their office
Early this morning.

The building manager
Confirmed it. He heard
Them in there talking.

Damn it.
While they were here,

They got tipped
Or they're psychic.

- what time did you
Get here?
- about 5:00.

Nobody here but firefighters,
Whiteside. Leary was
Right behind me.

It's almost 10:00 now.
So where's the day staff?

If one of these patients
Falls out of bed,

Forget the fire
For a minute--

Hey, leo,
You wanted me?

Yeah. This place
Is a rat trap.

Yeah, you're the b&e expert.
I want your thoughts
On that basement door

- that was jimmied.
- a fan, thanks.

If this turns out
To be arson,

That door is the logical
Point of entry.

My money's on the kid
Whwho broke in before--

He comes back, he gets
A little revenge
For getting busted.

Juvie hasn't called
With a name.

Let me try.
I know somebody.

Yeah?
Who don't you know?

Oh, that emergency number
On the door--

It's another
Old age home,

- registered to
The same business.
- I'm not surprised.

Leary's over there
Checking it out.

Maybe he can get
A line on the owners.

Oh, I called the lawyer
On the bulletin board,

That saltwyn.
She's in court this morning.

She better clear
Her calendar.

Intermediate care facility
Level two.

Owner's been cited
Four times already this year--

Health, fire, city.

Four times?
That's unbelievable.

- why wasn't it shut down?
- I'm a fire investigator.

To me, everything's
A fire waiting to happen.

Some of these old places
Aren't too bad if you've
Got some money.

If you've got any money
Going in, they're going
To get it out of you.

The only thing
Weird I can see
Is broken glass

- on the outside
Of the door.
- yeah.

That bothers
Me, too.

What about this?

The guy is inside,
He breaks the window,

He reaches through,
And he lifts up the bar?

He breaks in, then what?
He has to break out again?

What about
Fingerprints?

A few sets--

But I've got
Something better.

There's blood
On there.

You looking
For a staff member?
'cause I got one here.

Good.
Will you get da vinci?

What's your name, son?

Paul. Erkin.

I warned them.

I warned them this
Was going to happen.

You warned who
About what?

The residents take
The batteries out of
Their smoke detectors

And use them
In their walkmans.

The owner didn't want
To buy any more.

You got all these
Windows boarded up,

And you're worried
About the batteries?

- what do you do here?
- I work here.

- I'm a qualified caregiver.
- yeah, what qualifies you?

- I went to school.
- just school?

This is paul erkin.
He works here.

This is dominic da vinci.
He's from the coroner's office.

How--
How many are--

Maybe you can help
Me out there.

I've got a list
I copied out here.

It's got
14 names on it.

That list is old.

There's two who went
To the hospital last month.
They died.

What about the owner?
Does the owner ever show up
Around here?

No. Never.
There's, um...

There's a lawyer who comes
And a bookkeeper.

Now, there's one
Staff member who died.

It was a young woman.

You obviously
Know her.

- janet.
- yeah.

And she, um, she works
Nights, but she offered
To take my shift

Because I had to go
To the dentist this morning.

Hold it.

Are you telling me
That you are the only
Day staff here?

- there's a cook,
Mary-anne.
- there's a cook.

She should be here.
Sh-she's--

- I-- I need some water.
- yeah.

In a minute,
You can drown yourself.

I want to know
What you do here.

Do you tie them
To the bedposts?

Do you discipline them
When they get troublesome?
Is that what you do?

Do I need a lawyer?

Those two sweet,
Little, old ladies--

Little, thin wrists
Like birds--

- daddy must be
Real proud of you.
- it was policy.

But I got in trouble
If I didn't do it.

I'm sorry.

It was policy, huh?

Well, I think you can
Understand our frustration.
Can't you?

I mean, this place
Is pretty much a nightmare,
And for whatever reason,

- you chose to close
Your eyes to it.
- [ stammers ]

Ah ah. We'll get
To your part in this later,
But right now,

You're going to help us
Identify some of these people
You're giving care to.

Come on.

Come on.

We'll need a list
Of their doctors
And medical records.

Almost all of them
Were women.

Well, it's
Comforting to know

How we'll be spending
Our golden years.

[ footsteps approach ]

I just heard.
What was the name
Of the place?

Golden cedars.

Did you know
Someone there?

No, no.
My granny's in a home.

I just had a panic attack.

[ flynn ]:
Helen, can you find--

- are you all right?
- mm-hmm.

Remember that list
Of agencies

We sent recommendations
To regarding community
Care facilities?

- I already pulled it.
- good. I want to talk
To them all today.

And it's ass-covering time,
So don't let them put you off.

I won't.

What have we got?

Preliminary I.D.S,

Except on the burn victim
And the men.

All the women
Were wearing I.D. Bracelets.

Next of kin?

Only four had
Close relations.

The rest were orphaned,
I guess you could say.

No kids, or they
Outlived them.

Two of them
Were tied to the bed,

And I mean tied--
No restraint jackets.

Restraint
Takes a doctor's order.

If any others appear
To have been restrained,
I want to know immediately.

Tox'll screen for drugs
That may have been
Used for sedation.

All right.
Also flag any bruising,
Bed sores,

All dislocations
Or fractures.

I want to compare those
Against any hospital x-rays
We might get.

If there's a pattern of abuse,
We'll find it.

Abuse.

This is from the lovely
And charming mountain
Crest retirement village.

Let me tell you,
It's almost as bad
As golden cedars.

I get there and wham!
The smell hits me
In the face.

I'm going
To choke, right?

I'm going, "What
Is that smell?"

Old age
And poverty.

Boiled cabbage-- it's like
An early warning system.

You smell that,
Run for your life.

- cabbage?
- cabbage.

Anyway, it's managed
By this woman.
She said the owners

Called her up and asked her
To have this box

Ready to be picked up
By a courier.

I ran a trace on the names--
Violet and hector kaymore.

It's addressed to
Their lawyer's office.

Let me guess--
Linda saltwyn?

Big surprise, huh?

I told them I was seizing
This for the coroner's office.

I wasn't going to let them
Slide out the door with this.
Screw 'em.

- got anything on
The other staff members?
- just the cook, mary-anne.

- she's not
Answering her phone.
- [ telephone ringing ]

Shannon.

Oh, yeah. Chick.

Yeah, give it to me.

Yeah, tommy.

Hang on.
I can't write that fast.

Yeah.

Okay.
Thanks, chick.

That kid who broke in there
The first time--

His name is
Tommy george whelan.

He's 14,

Two counts of b&e,

And this is good--

One count of arson.

He burned up a car.

Now, the men--

The men for some reason
Are not wearing I.D. Bracelets.

There was a protest against
Not being able to watch
A hockey game.

A hockey game
You took from them?

That is cruel
And unusual punishment,
If you ask me.

What the hell else
Do they have to look forward
To without a hockey game?

The t.V.
Was being fixed.

The t.V.,
Like in one t.V.
For everybody?

Do you happen
To know that in prison

There's a t.V.
In every cell?

You'll be
Finding out soon.

I know how that looks.

But it was for
Their own protection.

They got so confused at night,
They could fall or worse.

- it was policy.
- it was policy,
I forgot.

So that's okay, then?

Everybody uses some sort
Of restraint or locked ward.

Was it also policy not to use
A restraining jacket?

I would if they could pay for
It, but none of them could.

It was one of the items
They had to pay extra for.

What about the medicine?

Was it all scripts,
Or were you
From time to time

Maybe giving
Out of your pocket
A little something

- to make life
Easier for yourself?
- never.

God, what are
You saying?

You don't understand.
Some of these people,
They were difficult.

They would hide their meds
And other things.

I've been punched, bitten,
Verbally abused,

But I never
Hurt anybody back.
I swear.

God.

We, uh...

We found her in
Mr. Stelanovich's room.

Mrs. Siegel--

Mr. Stelanovich
Let her smoke in his room.

- what was the name?
- mrs. Siegel.

Mr. Stelanovich
Let her smoke in his room.

All right.

Who's missing?
Here's the list.

Who's missing?

Come on,
You worked there.
Who's missing?

Mr. Stelanovich.

He was a--he wandered.

Look, I'm feeling
A little woozy.
Can I please go now?

The police are going
To want to talk to you.

Make yourself
Available, son.
Get out.

Go!

Dementia gets worse
At night. Nobody knows why.

It's called
The sundowner effect.

He had his hands full.

What? I should feel
Sorry for him?

It's okay
To tie people up
And have a life?

I didn't mean that.

- what did you mean?
- and no, it's not okay.

- he's just an ignorant kid.
- so who's responsible, then?

I'm just saying I think
You were a little hard on him.

This is the devil
I know right now.

Now, we don't know
If he's telling the truth.
He could be lying.

Maybe he didn't
Have to go to the dentist.

Maybe he should
Have been there.

And I'll tell you
One thing else--

When I find the names
Of the other devils,

I will nail their asses
To the wall, too.

Could I have a word?

Sure.
Sorry.

Your mother just called me.
She was pretty upset.

- oh, is it about
The caregiver?
- uh-huh.

- she threw her out.
- what?

She said she didn't want
A stranger in her house.

It was you put
That idea in her head.

- thank you very much.
- excuse me?

What did you tell her?
You told her that these
People steal?

All I told her
Was that you had run

A criminal background
Check on the caregiver,

- [ groans ]
- and when she asked me why,

I explained we wanted
To make sure she was getting
Somebody trustworthy.

You've got to know
Your hard-ass attitude
In this

Is going to get you
Nowhere with her.

It's pop's doctor--
He keeps telling me
That she's--

She's not strong enough
To take care of him anymore.
She's too old.

I know.

This caregiver thing,
This is my only option.
I don't know what to do.

She lifts him in
And out of the tub,
She could fall,

- break her hip. No one's
Going to hear her.
- I know.

She's making me mental.

What about gabriella going
Over for an hour a day?

- it might help mom get used
To having somebody there.
- did you ask ma?

- it's me. Yeah, of course.
- what did she say?

She didn't say no.

Did she tell you
I took her to mass?

Get out!
You went to mass?

No, I waited
In the car.

I haven't been to
Mass since lent '79.

Yeah, yeah. I remember.
That was the year
You gave up guilt.

Yeah, well,
It's back--
In a big way.

Throw in
A hail mary for me.

Excuse me. Sorry,
Detective leary
Called for you.

He wanted you to know
Hector and violet kaymore
Are the owners.

They owned an old-aged home
In montreal, but they had
To shut it down

When three people
Died of e. Coli.

This one's got
Kitchen fittings.
That'll save me a whack.

Takes a lot of money
To open a club.

- didn't mick tell you
I won the lottery?
- [ laughs ]

Yeah, well, you might want
To buy your brother
A new suit.

Real estate guy's late.

I could shoot
The lock off.

You mind?
I've got a couple
More places to see.

Or... We could
Just walk in.

[ telephone ringing ]

See that?
It's not even open yet,

And they're trying
To get a reservation.
Now that's a good omen.

Maybe you
Bring me luck.

Violet and hector kaymore
Ran three other
Care facilities.

All of them shut down.
It's all in there.
It's disgusting.

It makes you wonder
How these people are allowed

To keep opening up new places.
It's unreal.

It's a free country.

Take the money and run.

- the new national anthem.
- yeah.

Everybody will stand up
And sing along to that one.

You heard from
Their lawyers yet?

She knows
I want to talk to her.

What's the story on the kid,
The one that broke in?

His grandmother's
Coming in to talk to me.

He wasn't one of the suspects
In the arsons,

- but he fits.
- [ knocking ]

- [ phone ringing ]
- jim wants you.

- now?
- mm-hmm.

Finally.

No,
I am not talking about

The larger government
Institutions.

- I am talking about
- [ knocking ]

The intermediate private
Facilities.

Gordon, we do not need
Another commission

Looking into the subject.
We've done that.

And if I get another
Truckload of paper
On the issue,

I am going to set fire
To it, I swear to god,
And mail it back.

Now, speak
To the minister directly,
And get back to me,

Or I am going to have
An army of widows
Dressed in black

Marching up
And down the street
Outside your office.

That's a pretty good idea
Anyway.

So far, I've talked
To fire, licensing and health.

Same old song and dance
We get in every
Other issue--

Direct from the manual
On plausible denial--

Not enough inspectors,
Too much divided authority.

And I know what
The sons of bitches
Are doing.

They are treading water,
Praying it proves to be arson,
So then it's a criminal issue,

Not reflective
Of the status quo.

Well, that would conveniently
Get them off the hook,
Wouldn't it?

[ sighs ]
You hear from
The fire inspector?

Not yet,
But I did speak
To the one survivor.

She kept telling me
She remembers being helped
By someone.

Of course,
She was insisting
It was an angel,

But mr. Stelanovich
Is missing.

Maybe it was him
That helped her out
And then he wandered off,

'cause he's got the...
Help me.

- dementia.
- dementia.

Our survivor
Mention anything
About abuse?

Only through neglect.

My preliminary examinations
Of the bodies confirms that.

Except for the women
Being tied to the bed,

There's no signs
Of anything overt.

She says
She's going to sue.

She's going to sue the home,
Going to sue the government.

I said I'd testify
No problem.

Yeah, well,
I've got a couple
Of apathetic bureaucrats

I'd like to add to her list.
They refuse to pay attention.

And if we wait for inquest
Or a trial, we lose momentum.

Why don't you just call
Them up and get them
All down there.

Invite the all down
To golden cedars there,

And walk them
Through it.

Get the damn
Minister there.

Let him see first-hand
What happens

When their little system
Breaks down. We should do.

They either show up
Or they talk to us at inquest.

I like it.

If you really want to put
Some teeth into it,

I can call my friend,
Sonya don,

And we could meet you there,
Ambush them.

Do it quietly.

He never came home
Last night.

When was the last
Time you saw him?

Supper.

We watched "Jeopardy"
And he said he wanted
To go out for a drive,

Pick up
My birthday present.

14--isn't that
A little young
To be driving?

I was driving
At his age.

All right. We'll need
A complete description
Of the vehicle,

And the license plate,
If you can remember it.

It was a '78
Gmc pick-up.

Still runs as good as
The day we bought it.

Don't take him away
From me again, please.

Him and me, we're all we got.

If he's done what we're
Looking at him for,

You're all
You've got.

[ woman ]
I think you can understand
My clients are reluctant

To make any formal statement
Until a determination

As to the cause
Of the fire
Has been made.

They fully intend
To cooperate
With the authorities.

That's good.
Where are they?

- if you're coming here
Wasting my damn time--
- I don't have to be here.

And until there's
A formal charge,
Neither do they.

That's wrong.

Because we're going
To inquest on this.

And even
If it turns out to be arson,

We will proceed on crim neg.

Negligence?
Negligence by who?

Regardless of what
Code violations

They may or may not
Have been cited for,

They were allowed
To stay open. Repairs
Were in progress,

Showing good faith
On the part of my clients.

Good faith?

Did you happen to know
That your clients

Have a history of abuse
That goes back 10 years?

They owned a home
In montreal.

That was closed down
For health violations.
Three people died.

Then they opened up
One in edmonton.

Now the home
In edmonton got sued.
You know why?

There was a man who drowned
Unattended in a bathtub.

Then there was
Another home in winnipeg,
If memory serves.

They had a fire, too.

Lucky that time
That no one
Actually died.

So here's the pattern
As I see it.

Your clients there,
They just move on when
Things get hot,

And why not?

I mean,
Nobody checks records.

There's no
Cross-referencing
Of licenses.

They've got
A good lawyer.
It's velvet.

The only faith...

Is in your ability
To let them slide.

If you're finished--

Not in your dreams.

Mary-anne?

That's a lot
Of dry cleaning.

Got a minute?

Tommy whelan,
The b&e kid.

Security guard
From the box factory
Over there,

Yeah,
He called it in.

Surprised he made
It this far.

Yeah, coughing his guts up
From all the smoke.

He pulls over,
Passes out,

That's all
She wrote.

Oh...

What have we got here?

Oh, yeah.
He was definitely in there.

What have you got?

Watches, brooches,
Bracelets.

Yeah, he burned it
Trying to cover it up.

Kid's time ran out.

What a stupid stunt.

- [ watch ticking ]
- [ dishes rattling ]

- no no no.
- oh.

- now you do for me.
- pop, how do you say
In italian again,

"What goes around
Comes around"?

Remember that?
How does it go?

- "What goes around
Comes around." yeah.
- [ both laugh ]

Here's coffee.

Hey, mom,

What do you think
About gabriella?

I love to see
Gabriella.

That's not what I meant,
And you know it.

I don't want
This conversation.
Enough.

Finito.

I know already

Who's going
To win this one.

Like graciano,
She gets tougher
In the later rounds.

More like jake lamotta,
She's a glutton
For punishment.

That's marciano,
Not graciano.

Graciano was a bum.

Do you see
How you're talking?

Do you see how stubborn
You're sounding?

Portia, please.

Get me a couple of bottles
Of grandpa's wine.

The doctor says no--
No drinking.

It's for dominic.

Well, dominic shouldn't
Drink either.

Please?

- that's the good stuff, pop.
You sure?
- [ mumbles ]

You know what they say--

One sip won't hurt you...

[ both ]
But two is going
To kill you.

[ both laugh ]

- want me to get some glasses?
- no, no, no, no, no.

- you drink for me.
- [ phone ringing ]

My heart's
No good anymore.

You know why?

'cause you used it
All up on us.

- aaah-ha.
- didn't you?

- you look better.
- dominic?

- that's good.
- telephone.

- no.
- one of your friends,
The irish boy.

- it's work.
- okay.

So this mary-anne,
The cook at
The golden cedars,

She's the daughter
Of the owners, right?

Found her this morning,
She broke up.

She said she got
To work this morning,

And the fire trucks
Were there,

And she just
Panicked.

She called
Mommy and daddy

Straight away
To warn them.

- where is she now?
- I sent her home.

She's not going
Anywhere.

Have we got
Anything to prosecute?

She's weeping now,
But that could change.

She could end up
With a heart of stone

After having a little talk
With the family lawyer.

She did give me
The address of her parents.

I go over to check it out,
I find them sneaking around
The swimming pool

With a couple
Of airplane tickets
In their pockets.

Take a look at this.

It was behind the chair.

She had the heater
Plugged into it.

Wiring's frayed,
Arcs, chair's too close,

- you figure it out.
- not arson?

No. Just some regular
Run-of-the-mill tragedy.

I've got to go.

Flynn asked me
To show some officials

Around the scene
With him tonight.

I'm going to throw
The fear of prometheus
Into them.

This is
Violet and hector kaymore.

Dominic da vinci
With the coroner's office.

He's going to sit in with us
And ask you a few questions.

Is our lawyer here yet?

I put in a message.

We don't have to
Talk to them, daddy.

I'm just wondering...

Do you know the names
Of the people who died
At golden cedars?

Well, I know their names.

Look, here's a list.
Maybe that will help you out.

Actually, you can
Keep this copy.
I have another.

Now, I went over
Your financial statements
This afternoon.

I was very impressed.
200 gs a year--
That's great.

Of course, that's--
That's gross.

What was the net,
Detective?

Less than half that.

That is great.
Not bad at all.

But what was
The cost, detective?

11 dead.

You don't think
I cried over
Those poor people?

And my husband?
We did the best we could
For them.

You were making a profit
On their misfortune.

We were making a living
Out of caring for them.

[ door opens ]

Violet, hector,
Let's go.

This wasn't
Very smart.

- anything they said
Is inadmissible.
- oh, that's all right.

They didn't say anything
Worth repeating.

We're not
Finished.

- are they being charged?
- not yet, no.

Detective, would you mind
Telling ms. Saltwyn

- where you caught her clients
Sneaking off to?
- arizona.

Arizona.

A very large
Retirement community,
Arizona.

That's the blue-hair
Land of opportunity,
Isn't it, daddy?

I'll talk to them.
They'll be available.

If they're not,
I'll be looking for you.

What?

We have 16 old people
Living at mountain crest.

You close it down,
Where will you put them?

Where will they go?
Will you take them in?

- will you?
- [ scoffs ]

You see,
They just want to take
The moral high ground.

We surrender it
To you.

Goodbye.

We've still got a case
For criminal negligence.

One way or another,
They're out of business.

When I was talking

To that old lady
That survived the fire
At golden cedars

I asked her,
"What was it like being there,
Like, living there?"

She says,

"Have you ever been left
Sitting in a waiting room, dear,

For five years?"

[ scoffs ]

[ danny ñ
I shipped out on freighters
When I was 16,

Spent two years
Crossing the atlantic.

Africa, spain, italy--
It's where I learned to cook.

And got home
And joined the army.

[ both laugh ]

Get out!

- I never took you
For military.
- it didn't last long.

So how about you?

Did... You grow up
In a family of cops?

Uh, no.

I, um, I grew up
In a family of bad guys.

How bad?

I was, um, raised in a lot
Of different group homes.

Let me tell you, they weren't
Real homey either.

I got into
A lot of trouble.

So what turned you around?

It wasn't really
One particular thing.

I just knew I wasn't
Going to be
A victim of it.

And being a cop seemed
Like the right thing to do.

Um...

Thanks for dinner.

It was really good.

I have to meet
An investor in a little bit,

- so can I drop you
Off somewhere?
- sure.

Um, you can take me home.

Then I'll know
Where you live.
[ laughs ]

At last.
I am starving.

It's creepy down
Here at night.

I know, I know.

- wayne, sunny,
Food's here.
- be right there.

- I talked to grandma.
- mm-hmm?

She's okay with it,
I think. I told her
I work cheap.

[ laughs ]

- think we're too late?
- jimmy!

Yeah, right here.

I talked to the survivor.

She pretty much
Identified the whelan kid.

I figure he was upstairs
Grabbing his watches
When mr. Stelanovich

- decided to go
For a midnight stroll.
- yeah?

And he went out
The basement door,

And he locked it
Behind him.

Meanwhile, tommy's
Got the two women.

He tries to go out
The way he came in,

But it's locked,
So he had to break
The glass.

The kid was a devil
Going in, and an angel
Coming out.

But maybe his grandma
Will have something nice
To remember him by now.

So what the hell happened?
Where is everybody?

Oh, I just got a call.
The minister had
An emergency elsewhere.

Somebody tipped him off
The media was going to be here.

They can sure beat and retreat
When they want to, can't they?

[ leary ]: what about
The old man, stelanovich?

I went by the house
He grew up in.

The owner
Hasn't seen him.

He goes there.
He thinks he's a little boy.

When my father was dying,
All he wanted was
To be remembered.

It's not just old people
Who want to be remembered
As important.

Everybody wants to feel
That they count
For something.

Yeah.

Hey, where are you going,
Dominic?

I'll be right back.

Got a little something
For my pops.

[ danny ]: leon's
On his way to meet us.

Francois, you telling me
You don't want him
In on this?

Telling him is a different
Story. He's going to freak.

Leon's a mutt.
He wants a piece
Of everything.

- what are we
Going to do?
- I don't know.

- let him dig his own grave.
- [ sighs ]

- you going to push him in?
- did I say that?
I didn't say that.

I said, "Let him
Dig his own grave,"

- meaning he's going
To fall in by himself.
- [ footsteps approaching ]

Well well,
Speak of the devil.

Hey, hey, hey.

This is all right, boys.
[ chuckles ]

This is good.

Oh,
I like the location.

Remember danny?

Danny boy.
Moving up fast, huh?

- he's got
Some great ideas.
- yeah?

You know, we got something
Really good happening out here?

- um-mmm.
- yeah.

If we just keep together,

Maybe we could go big,

You know?

But I would
Really like to know...

Who took joe
And christian off.

I wouldn't know
Anything about that.
This ain't my town.

Not yet.
Next year.

You, uh...

- you going
To manage this place?
- yeah, I am.

Me and danny.

Oh.

And where do I fit
In the big picture?

We're going to send you home
To montreal.

Brother wants you home
To put out some fires.

Oh.
[ chuckles ]

- you like that, huh?
- yeah. [ chuckles ]

Did I tell you guys
That I talked to the broker

Who handles
Our pension fund portfolio?

And you know what we've got
A lot of money invested in?

Elderly care facilities.

And he tells me
It's a growth industry.

Mick?

It's like an irish
Wake. Cheers.

Happy days.

I was thinking of this movie
I saw when I was a kid.

It was a black
And white movie.
I saw it on t.V--

- a tarzan move.
You like tarzan movies.
- love them.

Did you ever see the one
About the elephant's graveyard?

Yeah, I did see
That one, yeah.

They had a sacred place,

Sacred ground
They went to die in?

That's where they went to die.
How great was that?

It made such an impression
On me. I always thought
It was noble.

You know,
That's a load of crap,
The elephant's graveyard.

It's a load of crap, man.

- to elephants.
- to elephants.

Here you go, leo.
To elephants.

Only 'cause
They don't forget.

- okay, fair enough.
- [ banging ]

- did you hear that?
- [ siren blaring ]

Mr. Stelanovich?

What happened?

[ theme music playing ]
