WE'RE HERE.

COUNTDOWN TO ECSTASY.

OH, YOU ARE NAUGHTY.

HAVE YOU TAKEN ME SOMEPLACE SEEDY AND AWFUL?

THE NO-TELL MOTEL? HEY, DID YOU BRING ANY FEATHERS?

I'M QUITE FOND OF HAVING MY--

JUST TAKE IT OFF, NIGE.

I LOVE IT WHEN YOU TELL ME WHAT TO DO.

YOU KNOW, THAT MOMENT

BEFORE I TOOK OFF THE BLINDFOLD I WAS SO HAPPY.

AWFUL THING, TO STRIP A MAN OF HIS ILLUSIONS.

LOOK AT IT THIS WAY,

WOULD YOU HAVE COME IF I JUST FLAT-OUT ASKED YOU?

NO. AND WHY WOULD YOU WANT ME TO?

I WANT TO GET MY DAD A GIFT.

AND THIS CONCERNS ME HOW PRECISELY?

I FOUND HIM SOMETHING, BUT I NEED A SECOND OPINION.

YOU KNOW, A MANLY PERSPECTIVE.

WELL, DESPERATE TIMES CALL FOR DESPERATE MEASURES.

GOOD MORNING TO YOU.

WELCOME TO TOTAL-MART.

ANYTHING YOU WANT, I'M AT YOUR SERVICE.

WELL, FOR STARTERS YOU CAN FORK OVER

SOME OF THAT POSITIVE ATTITUDE.

I CAN DO BETTER THAN THAT, YOUNG LADY.

I'LL GIVE YOU THE KEY TO HAPPINESS.

OH, I'VE LOOKED ALL OVER THE PLACE FOR THAT.

WHO KNEW I'D FIND IT HERE AT TOTAL-MART.

OH, IT'S QUITE SIMPLE REALLY.

DON'T LET THE HARDSHIP OF THE PAST

ROB THE JOY FROM THE PRESENT.

WELL, NOT A BAD TIP.

UH, UNFORTUNATELY FOR ME, IT'S ABOUT 20 YEARS TOO LATE.

I ASSURE YOU IT'S NEVER TOO LATE.

YOU KNOW, I'M GONNA HOLD ON TO THAT.

THANK YOU. YOU HAVE A NICE DAY.

THAT'S SUPPOSED TO BE MY LINE.

[laughs]

BYE-BYE. BYE.

WHAT A COOL GUY.

IMAGINE HAVING A DAD LIKE HIM, THOUGH, YOU KNOW.

KIND OF CUTE AND CUDDLY. SAYS WHAT'S ON HIS MIND.

YEAH. YEAH, JUST LIKE MY DAD.

I THOUGHT YOU AND MAX WERE GETTING ON.

YEAH, BECAUSE WE'RE AVOIDING EACH OTHER.

I FIGURE MAYBE A PEACE OFFERING IS JUST THE TICKET.

SO WHAT DO YOU THINK?

A TRACTOR?

A RIDING MOWER.

THIS IS A BIT EXCESSIVE, ISN'T IT?

IT'S PERFECT FOR HIM.

WELL, IT'S JUST THAT...

GIVEN YOUR RECENT CONFLICTS WITH HIM,

A GIFT LIKE THIS COULD BE MISCONSTRUED.

MISCONSTRUED HOW?

MAX HAS HIS SECRETS, DOES HE NOT?

ABOUT HIS PAST AND YOUR MOTHER'S DEATH.

AND YOU'VE TRIED IN VARIOUS WAYS

TO MAKE HIM REVEAL THE TRUTH AND--

NOW I'M TRYING TO DO IT BY BRIBING HIM? NO, NO.

IS THAT WHAT YOU THINK? NO, IT'S NOT.

I'M JUST SAYING I DON'T THINK THIS IS THE BEST WAY

TO GET THINGS BACK ON TRACK. THAT'S ALL.

[customers shouting]

(woman) DID HE HAVE A HEART ATTACK?

(Jordan) EXCUSE ME, PARDON ME.

CALL 9-1-1.

SIR.

COULD YOU HELP ME, PLEASE.

(Nigel) EMERGENCY AT THE TOTAL-MART, GROUND FLOOR.

WOULD YOU SEND SOMEONE?

[upbeat instrumental music]

* *

(Nigel) HIS NAME'S CLIVE ALPERT.

APPARENTLY HE'S BEEN A GREETER HERE FOR TEN YEARS.

THE CORONER'S VAN ON ITS WAY.

HEART ATTACK?

LOOKS LIKE IT.

HEY, YOU DID EVERYTHING YOU COULD.

HEY, CAN WE SHOW A LITTLE RESPECT HERE!

(Nigel) GO BACK TO YOU LIVES.

SORRY, GUYS, I THINK WE'RE WAY PAST THE AMBULANCE PHASE.

THIS IS THE PATIENT, RIGHT?

WE GOT A CALL ON A HEART ATTACK.

THEN YOU SHOULD'VE RECEIVED A SECOND CALL CANCELING THE FIRST.

I MEAN, WE RAN CPR AND DEFIB FOR THREE CYCLES--

MA'AM, WE GOTTA TAKE HIM TO A HOSPITAL

SO A DOCTOR CAN PRONOUNCE HIM.

YEAH, I AM A DOCTOR, AND I ALREADY DID.

BELIEVE ME, I KNOW DEAD WHEN I SEE IT.

I'M AFRAID I'M GONNA HAVE TO FOLLOW PROCEDURE HERE, DOCTOR.

I'M NOT LETTING YOU BILL THIS FAMILY

FOR A POINTLESS TRIP TO THE HOSPITAL.

HE'S GOING WITH ME.

[playing on radio] * WOKE UP THIS MORNING FEELING FINE *

* THERE'S SOMETHIN' SPECIAL ON MY MIND *

* LAST NIGHT I MET A NEW GUY IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD-- * *

[turns off ignition]

(Emmy) DR. MACY, I WAS STARTING TO GET WORRIED.

BOTTLENECK ON THE 90 AGAIN?

BOTTLENECK IMPLIES THAT TRAFFIC WAS ACTUALLY MOVING.

AND PULLING INTO MY PARKING LOT,

THAT WAS THE REAL HIGHLIGHT OF MY MORNING.

SIR, DR. DUCHAMPS WANTED A WORD WITH YOU.

GOOD 'CAUSE I WANT A WORD WITH HER.

I THOUGHT YOU MIGHT.

I TRIED TO CALL YOU ON YOUR CELL. THE BATTERY DIED.

IS MY NAME STILL ON MY OFFICE, OR DID THAT GET SWITCHED TOO? I'M SORRY?

SHE WANTED ME TO TELL YOU THAT IF YOU WOULD-- WHERE IS SHE?

(Emmy) I'M TRYING TO TELL YOU.

YOU WERE LATE, AND SHE HAD AN APPOINTMENT TO MAKE.

SO SHE TOLD ME THAT SHE WANTS YOU TO MEET HER THERE.

I'M JUST USED TO THE LIVING AND THE DEAD BEING SEPARATE.

WORLDS ARE COLLIDING.

WELL, JORDAN, IF YOU WANNA TALK...

WELL, THANKS FOR THE OFFER,

BUT I THINK YOU SHOULD SAVE IT FOR THE PEOPLE HE LEFT BEHIND.

WELL, THAT'S PROBABLY TRUE.

I GOT A HOLD OF MR. ALBERT'S SON, DALE.

HE'S PRETTY UPSET.

I'M SURE HE IS. HIS DAD WAS A REALLY SWEET GUY.

DR. CAVANAUGH?

LEWIS PATE, ATTORNEY AT LAW.

I GATHER YOU'RE HANDLING THE CLIVE ALPERT CASE.

OH, DON'T TELL ME I'M BEING SUED.

NO. I REPRESENT THE DECEDENT'S SON, DALE ALPERT.

HE'S QUITE DISTRAUGHT RIGHT NOW.

HE'S ASKED ME TO HANDLE THE ARRANGEMENTS

WITH REGARD TO HIS FATHER.

IT'S MY CLIENT'S REQUEST

THAT HIS FATHER NOT BE SUBJECTED TO AN AUTOPSY.

WELL, I'M INCLINED TO GO ALONG WITH THAT,

GIVEN MR. ALPERT'S AGE AND HISTORY OF HEART TROUBLE.

I'M PLEASED TO HEAR IT.

THE SOONER WE CAN HOLD THE FUNERAL,

THE SOONER DALE CAN START THE HEALING PROCESS.

THE BODY AND THE PERSONAL EFFECTS

CAN BE RELEASED PROBABLY BY THE END OF THE DAY.

WE PREFER TO HAVE THEM SOONER.

END OF THE DAY IS PRETTY SOON.

I MEAN, IT'S NOT LIKE WE HAVE A DRIVE-THRU WINDOW HERE.

DOCTOR, SURELY THE PROCESS CAN BE EXPEDITED.

EVEN IF I RUSH THE PAPERWORK, IT'S STILL TAKES TIME

TO ARRANGE TRANSPORT TO THE MORTUARY.

THERE'S A TRANSPORT STANDING BY RIGHT NOW.

YOU JUST NEED TO SIGN OUT THE BODY.

WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON HERE?

(Lily) JORDAN.

THIS IS MR. DALE ALPERT.

OH, I'M VERY SORRY FOR YOUR LOSS,

BUT WHAT EXACTLY IS THE BIG HURRY HERE.

I'M NOT SURE WHAT YOU MEAN.

I MEAN, YOUR ATTORNEY'S READY TO WHEEL THE BODY

OUT OF HERE HIMSELF.

MY ATTORNEY?

LEWIS PATE, HE'S RIGHT--

GARRET, YOU GOT MY MESSAGE.

LOUD AND CLEAR, ABOUT SUBTLE AS A PIPE BOMB.

NOW I HAVE A MESSAGE FOR YOU.

BELIEVE ME, I WAS SHOCKED TO SEE MY NAME ON YOUR SPACE.

HEAD OF GRAPHICS APOLOGIZED FOR THE MIX-UP

AND PROMISED IT WOULD BE CORRECTED

BY END OF BUSINESS TODAY.

YOU COULD HAVE TOLD THAT TO EMMY

INSTEAD OF ASKING ME TO COME OUT JUST TO HEAR IT FROM YOU.

WE HAVE ANOTHER MATTER TO DISCUSS, GARRET,

OF A MORE DELICATE NATURE.

WHAT MATTER?

THREE YEARS AGO DIANE CLARK, A TRANSIENT AND KNOWN DRUG USER,

OD'D ON HEROIN,

OR AT LEAST ACCORDING TO HER AUTOPSY.

I'M NOT SURE I FOLLOW.

ARE YOU SAYING A MISTAKE WAS MADE?

DIANNE CLARK CAME HERE FROM DETROIT

RIGHT AROUND THE TIME THAT ADDICTS

WERE DROPPING THERE LIKE FLIES FROM A BAD BATCH OF HEROIN

LACED WITH RAT POISON.

THEY JUST GOT AROUND TO CATCHING THE WACKO RESPONSIBLE.

THE DETROIT POLICE BELIEVE THAT SHE MAY BE LINKED

TO THE SUSPECT.

WELL, IF THE QUESTION IS DID SHE O.D. OR WAS SHE POISONED,

THE ANSWER IS TEST HER TISSUE SAMPLES.

WE SHOULD STILL HAVE THEM.

WE DON'T. IN FACT, SAMPLES WERE NEVER EVEN TAKEN.

BASED ON THE REPORT,

THE AUTOPSY WAS DONE IN A VERY DEFICIENT MANNER,

WHICH IS WHY I ORDERED THE BODY EXHUMED.

LET ME CLEAR UP A MISCONCEPTION ON YOUR PART, DR. DUCHAMPS.

YOU'RE SECOND CHAIR, NOT FIRST.

YOU FIND EVIDENCE OF A SLIPSHOD EXAM,

YOU COME TO ME IMMEDIATELY.

AS FAR AS HAVING A BODY EXHUMED,

THAT CALL'S MADE BY ME AND ME ALONE.

I WAS TRYING TO PROTECT YOU FROM ANY APPEARANCE

OF CONFLICT OF INTEREST.

WHERE'S THE CONFLICT?

YOU DID THE AUTOPSY, GARRET.

(Jordan) I CALLED THE A.B.A.

WHOEVER LEWIS PATE IS, HE ISN'T A LAWYER.

I DOUBT HIS NAME'S EVEN LEWIS PATE.

MY FATHER CAME TO ELLIS ISLAND

WITH NOTHING BUT THE LINT IN HIS POCKETS.

HE WORKED HARD.

MADE A LIFE FOR HIMSELF AND HIS FAMILY.

AND FOR THIS TO HAPPEN.

IT'S A VIOLATION, VIOLATION OF HIS MEMORY.

WE'LL GET THIS ALL SORTED OUT, MR. ALPERT.

FOR STARTERS, I'VE CALLED THE POLICE.

THE DETECTIVE'S ON HIS WAY OVER HERE.

TOO LATE FOR THAT, ISN'T IT?

WELL, NOT IF YOUR FATHER HAD ENEMIES.

MY DAD DIDN'T HAVE ENEMIES.

HE'S THE MOST DECENT MAN I EVER KNEW.

SOMEONE WHO TOUCHED THE LIVES OF EVERYONE HE MET.

YEAH, I COULD SEE THAT.

I WAS THERE IN THE STORE WHEN IT HAPPENED.

DID YOU TALK TO HIM?

JUST BRIEFLY WHEN I CAME IN.

HOW WAS HE?

HAPPY.

WHY WOULD SOMEONE TRY TO TAKE HIS BODY?

POSSIBLY TO CONCEAL CAUSE OF DEATH.

ARE YOU SAYING HE WAS KILLED?

I'M SAYING I THINK WE SHOULD DO AN AUTOPSY.

MR. MACY, HI.

HI.

I THOUGHT I'D STOP BY AND SEE HOW YOU WERE SETTLING

INTO THE NEW OFFICE.

GREAT.

IS THAT ONE OF MY INTAKE FILES?

I WAS DOING A LITTLE RESEARCH.

OH.

DIANE CLARK. YEAH.

GUESS YOU'VE HEARD.

IT'S PROBABLY ALL OVER THE BUILDING BY NOW.

OH, I'M SURE THAT'S NOT TRUE.

DR. DUCHAMPS WANTS TO SPREAD THE WORD.

SHE'S AFTER MY JOB, LILY.

THIS IS ABOUT HARDBALL POLITICS, PURE AND SIMPLE.

I THOUGHT THIS WAS ABOUT AN AUTOPSY.

NO, SHE'S JUST USING THAT TO UNDERMINE ME,

TO ATTACK MY CREDIBILITY.

WELL, THEN IT'S JUST GONNA BACKFIRE ON HER, RIGHT?

ONCE ALL THE FACTS COME OUT.

GARRET.

I-I HAVE A LITTLE PROBLEM.

EVEN AFTER REVIEWING MY OWN REPORT,

I CAN'T RECALL A SINGLE THING ABOUT THIS WOMAN.

WELL, THAT MUST HAPPEN ONCE IN AWHILE.

NOT WITH ME, IT NEVER HAPPENS.

HOW CAN I DEFEND MYSELF AGAINST ELAINE DUCHAMPS,

IF I CAN'T REMEMBER THE CASE.

I GUESS THIS MUST KIND OF HIT HOME, EH?

HOW SO?

THE BOND BETWEEN PARENT AND CHILD

TORN ASUNDER BY DEATH.

THE FRAGILE FABRIC OF OUR EXISTENCE.

MAX IS GETTING ON IN YEARS, AFTER ALL.

THIS CASE ISN'T ABOUT ME...

OR ME AND MAX.

MY POINT IS-- I KNOW WHAT YOUR POINT IS.

END OF CONVERSATION.

SO HARD TO FATHOM WHY SOMEONE WOULD MURDER THE OLD BUGGER.

I'M NOT SO SURE ANYONE DID.

HE HAD A HISTORY OF CORONARY ARTERY DISEASE.

YEAH, IF IT WAS NATURAL CAUSES,

WHY WOULD SOMEONE TRY TO PINCH THE CORPSE?

I COULDN'T HAVE PUT IT BETTER MYSELF.

THOUGH I'D STAY CLEAR OF THE WORD "PINCH."

BOY, THAT'S WEIRD.

HIS TROPONIN STATS ARE SKY-HIGH,

THE MARKER FOR A MASSIVE HEART ATTACK.

WELL, DOESN'T THAT CONFIRM YOUR THEORY?

NO, I MEAN MASSIVE, MASSIVE.

WITH THESE ENZYME LEVELS,

IT WOULD HAVE BEEN BANG, CLIVE DROPS DEAD INSTANTLY.

AFRAID I STILL DON'T SEE YOUR PROBLEM.

THE STORE JUST OPENED. CLIVE WAS STARTING HIS SHIFT.

WHY DIDN'T HE COLLAPSE AT THE ENTRANCE?

HOW DID HE END UP IN A CHAIR IN THE FURNITURE DEPARTMENT?

CAN YOU FAST-FORWARD IT?

(Nigel) THERE'S A STAMPEDE OF CONSUMERS.

WHY WOULD HE LEAVE HIS POST?

CAN WE PICK HIM UP FROM ANOTHER CAMERA?

(Nigel) WELL, HE LOOKS UNWELL.

I THOUGHT YOU SAID A HEART ATTACK LIKE HIS

WOULD HIT STRAIGHT AWAY.

YEAH, IT WOULD. I DON'T GET THIS.

LET'S GO BACK TO THAT FIRST ANGLE,

WHEN CLIVE WALKED AWAY.

FREEZE.

WHAT?

WHAT IS IT?

NOW LET'S GO TO THE FURNITURE DEPARTMENT,

WHEN THE PARAMEDICS SHOWED UP.

OKAY, FREEZE THAT.

CAN YOU BLOW UP THE PARAMEDIC?

OKAY, NOW LET'S DO THE SAME THING

WITH THE GUY SHAKING CLIVE'S HAND AT THE DOOR.

THEY'RE THE SAME MAN.

(Garret) SO THERE'S A RESEMBLANCE. WHAT ABOUT IT?

WELL, IT RAISES A FEW QUESTIONS, DON'T YOU THINK?

THEY SAY EVERYBODY'S GOT A TWIN.

MY UNCLE PET'S A DEAD-RINGER FOR BORIS YELTSIN.

LOOK, THIS ISN'T TWO PEOPLE GARRET.

THIS IS ONE MAN.

HE SHAKES CLIVE'S HAND, AND CLIVE HITS THE BUCKET.

NOW HE'S BACK AS AN EMT.

BUT NOT FROM ANY LOCAL AMBULANCE FIRMS EITHER.

'CAUSE THEY ALL HAVE COMPANY NAMES SEWN

ON THEIR SHIRTS AND SHOULDER PATCHES,

WHEREAS--LOOK, THIS GENT DOESN'T HAVE ANY OF THAT.

MAYBE HE RAN OUT OF CLEAN UNIFORMS.

I-I DON'T HAVE THE PATIENCE TO GUESS WHERE YOU TWO

ARE GOING WITH THIS.

WE THINK THAT THIS GUY KILLED CLIVE ALPERT.

HOW? BY SHAKING HIS HAND?

POSSIBLY, YEAH.

THERE ARE NUMEROUS TOXINS TRANSMISSIBLE

THROUGH CLOSE CONTACT

THAT COULD MIMIC A HEART ATTACK.

IT'S NOT SO FAR-FETCHED.

IN 1978, THE KGB ASSASSINATED A JOURNALIST IN LONDON

WITH A POISON-TIPPED UMBRELLA.

OKAY, AND MAYBE THE KGB THING ISN'T THE BEST EXAMPLE.

BUT LOOK HOW THIS ALL LAYS OUT.

CLIVE DIES RIGHT AFTER MEETING THIS GUY,

WHO THEN DRESSES UP AS AN EMT

AND TRIES TO TAKE THE BODY.

ANOTHER GUY DRESSED UP AS A LAWYER

TRIES TO DO THE SAME THING.

SOMETHING REALLY--

FUNKY.

FUNKY'S GOING ON HERE.

THEN YOU SHOULD BE TELLING THIS TO THE POLICE, NOT TO ME.

OH, YOU ALREADY TALKED TO THEM, BUT THEY DIDN'T BITE.

THEY'RE ON THE FENCE. THEY JUST NEED A LITTLE NUDGE.

COME ON, GARRET. WHAT DO YOU SAY?

I CAN'T MAKE THAT CALL, JORDAN.

YOU CAN'T OR YOU WON'T?

WHY DON'T I JUST WAIT OUTSIDE.

ALL RIGHT, I WON'T MAKE THAT CALL.

THE LAST THING I NEED RIGHT NOW IS YOU KICKING UP A LOT OF DUST.

NOT WITH ELAINE INVESTIGATING.

THIS IS SICKENING. YOU'RE AFRAID FOR YOUR JOB?

MY JOB WOULD BE A HELL OF MORE SECURE

IF IT WEREN'T FOR ALL THE TIMES I WENT OUT ON A LIMB FOR YOU.

I'M SUPPOSED TO BACK OFF 'CAUSE YOU'RE ON THE BUBBLE?

YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO BRING ME PROOF.

I'M NOT STICKIN' MY NECK OUT

FOR SOME WILD-ASSED CONSPIRACY THEORY.

PROOF, JORDAN. NOW, PUT UP OR SHUT UP.

(Jordan) I GOT YOUR PROOF. I GOT IT RIGHT HERE.

QUESTION IS WHAT NASTY LITTLE SUBSTANCE

IS GOING TO TURN UP?

WELL, YOU TELL ME.

WHAT'S THE HOT KGB POISON THESE DAYS?

FOR SOMETHING THAT MIGHT TRIGGER A HEART ATTACK,

I'D FAVOR EXTRACT OF ASCELEPIAS

OR PERHAPS A VARIANT OF LATRODECTUS VENOM.

YOU TOOK THE WORDS RIGHT OUT OF MY MOUTH.

NONE OF THESE WOULD SHOW UP ON A NORMAL TOX SCREEN.

BUT OUR FRIEND THE GAS CHROMATOGRAPH REVEALS ALL.

YOU KNOW ABOUT THIS HOW?

COURTESY OF THE ROYAL NAVY.

SINCE WHEN DOES TOXIN EXPERTISE GO HAND IN HAND

WITH SWABBING DECKS?

I HAD SOME EXPOSURE, SHALL WE SAY,

TO THE DARK ART OF COUNTERINTELLIGENCE.

OH, YOU WERE A SPY.

YOU KNOW, I REALLY DON'T APPRECIATE YOUR TONE.

(Elaine) EXCUSE ME, DR. CAVANAUGH.

BUT IS IT REALLY YOUR INTENTION TO ORDER

A GAS CHROMATOGRAPH ON THIS MAN?

YOU BET.

EVEN THOUGH HE DIED OF A HEART ATTACK.

I THINK HE HAD A LITTLE HELP.

I DON'T SEE THAT INDICATED ANYWHERE

IN YOUR PRELIMINARY REPORT.

THIS IS MY CASE, ELAINE.

I DON'T EVEN SEE WHY WE'RE HAVING THIS CONVERSATION.

WELL, I CAN'T IN GOOD CONSCIENCE AUTHORIZE

THAT KIND OF BLOOD WORK.

NOT WITH THE TOX LAB STRETCHED TO MAXIMUM.

ACTUALLY, THAT IS NOT YOUR CALL.

IT'S DR. MACY'S.

WELL, SPECIAL TEST ORDERS GO THROUGH ME NOW.

I'M TRYING TO LIGHTEN HIS WORKLOAD.

IS THAT WHAT YOU'RE TRYING TO DO?

LET'S NOT MAKE THIS ABOUT DR. MACY.

THAT'D BE A LOT EASIER IF YOU GOT OFF HIS BACK

AND LET HIM DO HIS JOB.

MR. ALPERT'S SON IS GRIEVING,

AND I WON'T LET YOU NEEDLESSLY DRAG THIS OUT.

I WANT YOUR FINAL REPORT TURNED IN BY DAY'S END.

WELL, THAT PUTS A CRIMP IN THINGS.

DID YOU SEE THIS?

(Jordan) WHAT ABOUT IT?

HE HAD A TATTOO REMOVED.

THE INK IS LIKELY STILL IN THE TISSUE, RIGHT?

IT SHOULD SHOW UP ON UV.

NIGEL, WE HAVE BIGGER THINGS TO WORRY ABOUT THAN HIS TATTOO.

I DON'T BELIEVE IT.

WHAT?

WHAT IS IT?

[camera clicks]

OKAY, SO HE HAD A TATTOO OF A CIRCLE.

ACTUALLY IT'S THE GOTHIC LETTER "O."

COME ON, NIGEL, THE SUSPENSE IS KILLING ME HERE.

A GOTHIC "O" ON CLIVE'S UPPER LEFT ARM.

IT'S THE FIRST TIME I'VE EVER SEEN ONE IN THE FLESH,

AS IT WERE.

ANYWAY, WHAT WE HAVE HERE IS A BLOOD GROUP TATTOO,

GIVEN ONLY TO OFFICERS OF THE WAFFEN SS.

SO WHAT ARE YOU SAYING?

THAT SWEET, OLD CLIVE ALPERT WAS A NAZI?

YEAH.

COME ON, THERE'S GOTTA BE ANOTHER EXPLANATION

FOR THIS TATTOO.

LIKE WHAT?

HE'S THE RIGHT AGE. HE CAME HERE AFTER THE WAR.

FROM ENGLAND.

HE COULD HAVE FLED THERE FROM GERMANY,

WHICH IS WHY I'M RUNNING A FACIAL RECOGNITION PROGRAM

CHECKING HIS DMV PICTURE AGAINST THE DATA BASE

OF NAZI WAR CRIMINALS.

IT'S REALLY COOL.

IT LOOKS AT THINGS LIKE BONE STRUCTURE,

DISTANCE BETWEEN THE EYES.

YOU'RE REALLY SERIOUS ABOUT THIS.

YEAH. [computer beeps]

LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, WE HAVE A POSSIBLE MATCH.

(Nigel) "HELMUT GREISS, AN SS LIEUTENANT.

"OXFORD-EDUCATED, GREISS SPOKE FLUENT ENGLISH.

"HE VANISHED IN LATE '45, NEAR THE END OF THE WAR.

"PRIOR TO THAT, HE MET THE INCOMING TRAINS

AT RAVENSBRUCK CONCENTRATION CAMP."

IF THIS IS OUR GUY,

IT'S NOT THE FIRST TIME CLIVE'S BEEN A GREETER.

EVEN SO, THAT STILL DOESN'T EXPLAIN

WHY SOMEONE WOULD WANT TO KILL HIM

HALF A CENTURY LATER.

BOY, THIS WOULD ROCK HIS SON'S WORLD.

I MEAN, HE'S ALREADY DEVASTATED.

IT WOULD BE PREMATURE TO TELL HIM OR ANYONE REALLY.

THIS IS A POSSIBLE MATCH.

THERE ARE INTRIGUING SIMILARITIES TO BE SURE,

BUT WE NEED SOMETHING CONCLUSIVE.

WE NEED FINGERPRINTS.

HEY, BUG. HOW'S THE JAVA?

LIKE A WATER SAMPLE FROM LOVE CANAL.

BETTER THAN USUAL, HUH? MAYBE I'LL JOIN YOU.

LISTEN, I IMAGINE YOU KNOW WHAT'S GOING ON.

RIGHT.

ANYWAY, I WAS JUST GOING OVER DIANNE CLARK'S AUTOPSY REPORT,

AND I NOTICED YOU EXAMINED HER IN CONNECTION WITH THE LARVAL--

THE LARVAL DEVELOPMENT RELATIVE TO BODY DECOMPOSITION.

SO I WAS JUST WONDERING--

I'VE REALLY GOT TO FINISH UP MR. FISHER.

HE'S DEAD, BUG. HE CAN WAIT.

I NEED TO ASK YOU ABOUT DIANE CLARK.

I'M SORRY, DR. MACY.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU'RE SORRY?

I'M STILL CHIEF MEDICAL EXAMINER HERE.

YOU STILL WORK FOR ME.

I'VE GOT QUESTIONS. I EXPECT ANSWERS.

I UNDERSTAND, BUT I CAN'T TALK TO YOU ABOUT THIS. WHY?

DR. DUCHAMPS IS DOING THE SECOND AUTOPSY

ON DIANE CLARK, AND SHE ASKED ME TO ASSIST.

(Nigel) YOU KNOW HOW MANY LAWS WE'RE VIOLATING HERE?

STEALING MORGUE PROPERTY.

NO, TECHNICALLY, IT'S CLIVE'S PROPERTY.

AND WE'RE JUST BORROWING IT.

WHAT POSSIBLE VALUE COULD THERE BE

TO BREAKING INTO THE GUY'S HOME?

WELL, MAYBE HIS HOME COULD TELL US SOMETHING HIS BODY CAN'T.

COME ON, 007.

WHERE'S YOUR SENSE OF ADVENTURE?

(Nigel) SOMEONE GAVE THIS PLACE A GOING OVER.

IF THEY WERE TRYING TO COVER UP A MURDER,

WHY WOULD THEY TRASH THE PLACE?

YOU CAN SEE WHY MR. ALPERT'S SON IS SO DEVASTATED.

THEY SEEM VERY CLOSE.

PICTURES DON'T TELL THE WHOLE STORY.

THEY TELL PART OF IT.

I BET THERE AREN'T THREE PHOTOS OF ME WITH MY FATHER.

I ENVY ANYONE WHO HAS A DAD WHO ACTUALLY WANTS

A RELATIONSHIP.

CHECK OUT THIS CLOCK.

IT STOPPED AT 8:08.

THE TOTAL-MART DOESN'T OPEN TILL 9:00 A.M.,

WHICH MEANS THEY RANSACKED THIS PLACE

BEFORE CLIVE DIED.

WHATEVER THEY WERE LOOKING FOR, THEY COULDN'T FIND IT.

SO THEY WENT AFTER CLIVE.

MAYBE IT ISN'T HIS BODY THAT THEY WANT AT ALL.

WHAT IF IT'S HIS PERSONAL EFFECTS

THAT THEY'RE AFTER.

OH, I THOUGHT OF THAT ALREADY.

I WENT THROUGH EVERYTHING WITH A FINE-TOOTH COMB,

AND THERE'S NOTHING THERE.

THERE HAS TO BE.

ALL THE SUMMONING'S GETTING A LITTLE BIT OBVIOUS, ELAINE.

WHAT'S THIS ABOUT?

WHAT ARE SOME OF THE PHYSICAL SIGNS

OF HEROINE OVERDOSE,

DR. MACY?

FROTH IN THE NOSE AND MOUTH, PULMONARY EDEMA, AMONG OTHERS.

WHY? HOW WOULD YOU DETERMINE IF PULMONARY EDEMA WAS PRESENT?

THE SAME WAY ANYONE ESE WOULD.

BY OPENING HER UP AND DOING AN INTERNAL EXAM.

THERE'S NO INCISION.

THERE CERTAINLY ISN'T.

HOW DO YOU EXPLAIN THAT, DR. MACY?

[door closes]

HEY, DAD. UH, THANKS FOR DOING THIS.

A STEP IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION, I FIGURE,

AS LONG AS WE'RE CLEAR ON THE GROUND RULES.

I CAME HERE TO TALK ABOUT THE CASE,

NOT STROLL DOWN MEMORY LANE.

GOOD.

AM I A KILLER OR A VICTIM? NEITHER.

YOU'RE LIKE AN EXPERT WITNESS.

THAT'S NOT HOW WE PLAY THE GAME.

WELL, MAYBE WE SHOULD CHANGE THE RULES.

'KAY.

I THINK WHOEVER KILLED CLIVE WAS AFTER SOMETHING HERE.

I CAN'T SEE IT. I'M HOPING YOU CAN.

WELL, HOW DOES THIS SQUARE WITH HIM BEING A NAZI?

I DON'T KNOW.

ALL RIGHT, LET'S SAY YOU'RE RIGHT.

SAY THEY WANTED HIS STUFF.

IT'S NOT WORTH A PLUGGED NICKEL.

SO EITHER HE HID SOMETHING HERE THAT NIGEL COULDN'T FIND...

OR...

OR THEY GOT THE WRONG MAN,

AND CLIVE ALPERT IS AN INNOCENT VICTIM.

HE'S A VICTIM. I WOULDN'T CALL HIM INNOCENT.

I DON'T KNOW.

PHOTOS OF THE GRANDKIDS, LIBRARY CARD,

WHAT I'M GETTING IS A SOLID CITIZEN, A STAND-UP GUY.

YEAH, YEAH, I BET HE WAS A REAL HIT AT THE LABOR CAMP.

YOU DON'T KNOW IF THAT WAS REALLY HIM, JORDAN.

HIS WHOLE LIFE WAS LIE. I KNOW THAT MUCH.

LOOKS TO ME LIKE HE WAS JUST TRYING TO BE A GOOD MAN,

LEAD A GOOD LIFE.

HE BETRAYED HIS FAMILY.

HIS OWN KID DOESN'T KNOW THE TRUTH.

YEAH?

MAYBE IT SHOULD STAY THAT WAY.

IT ISN'T GOING TO.

WHAT ARE WE REALLY TALKING ABOUT HERE, JORDAN?

[sighs]

I GUESS I MADE A MISTAKE.

YOU HAVE SOMETHING I NEED.

HAVE A SEAT, DR. CAVANAUGH.

TO BE CANDID WITH YOU, I HARDLY KNOW WHERE TO BEGIN.

LOOK, JUST LET ME EXPLAIN.

RIGHT NOW I SUGGEST YOU LISTEN.

SINCE YOU DIDN'T SUBMIT YOUR PAPERWORK,

MR. ALPERT HAS NOT BEEN ABLE TO CLAIM HIS FATHER'S BODY.

AND ON TOP OF THAT,

HIS FATHER'S EFFECTS ARE NOW MISSING.

I DON'T SUPPOSE YOU KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT THAT?

THEY WERE TAKEN.

WELL, OBVIOUSLY THEY WERE TAKEN.

I MEAN FROM ME. I WAS ROBBED.

YOU TOOK THEM FROM LOCK-UP WITHOUT AUTHORIZATION?

(Dale) ALL DAD'S THINGS?

HIS MONEY CLIP, HIS GLASSES, THOSE WERE KEEPSAKES.

I'M SORRY.

WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS TO ME?

THE MAN WHO ROBBED ME WAS INVOLVED IN YOUR FATHER'S DEATH.

MY FATHER DIED OF A HEART ATTACK.

WHAT IS THIS CRUSADE YOU'RE ON?

WHO THE HELL DO YOU THINK YOU ARE?

THIS'LL BE SEEN AS GROSS INCOMPETENCE.

IF I DON'T FIGURE THIS OUT,

MY CAREER WILL BE DEAD AS DIANE CLARK.

NOW ISN'T THE TIME TO WORRY ABOUT DAMAGE CONTROL.

REALLY?

WHEN WOULD BE A BETTER TIME?

WHAT YOU NEED TO FOCUS ON IS WHY.

DAMN IT, I DON'T KNOW WHY.

DON'T YELL AT ME. I'M TRYING TO HELP YOU.

I'M SORRY. IT'S JUST THIS HAS NEVER--

HOW COULD I HAVE NOT DONE AN INTERNAL EXAM,

AND WHY CAN'T I REMEMBER IT?

MAYBE YOU BLOCKED IT OUT SOMEHOW.

IT'S NOT LIKE I KNEW THE WOMAN.

NO OFFENSE, BUT I DON'T SEE

THE PSYCHOLOGICAL ANGLES GOING ANYWHERE.

WHAT ABOUT THIS?

DO YOU HAVE YOUR SCHEDULE FROM THREE YEARS AGO?

I'VE GOT MY APPOINTMENT BOOKS GOING BACK TEN YEARS,

LEGAL MAKES ME KEEP.

MAYBE IF YOU CHECK YOUR SCHEDULE FOR THE DAY OF THE AUTOPSY.

SEE IF IT REMINDS YOU. WORKS FOR ME SOMETIMES.

JULY 18th.

YEAH.

WEDNESDAY, JULY 18th.

STAFF MEETING. MEETING AT THE D.A.'S OFFICE.

I WISH I COULD SAY IT WAS ALL COMING BACK TO ME.

GARRET, WHAT ABOUT THIS?

TWO DAYS LATER.

"ATKINS."

ATKINS BROTHERS?

DOES THAT MEAN SOMETHING TO YOU?

WHERE YOU GOING?

HOME.

I'M IN HOT WATER. HOTTER THAN USUAL.

WELL, I MAY HAVE JUST THE THING TO COOL IT OFF.

I FOUND SOMETHING IN CLIVE'S EFFECTS.

I THINK IT'S WHAT'S GOT EVERYONE'S KNICKERS IN A TWIST.

IN CLIVE'S EFFECTS? HM-MM.

HIS EFFECTS ARE GONE.

THAT'S PART OF THE PROBLEM.

THEY'RE GONE BUT NOT FORGOTTEN.

SEE, WHEN I FIRST WHEN THROUGH CLIVE'S THINGS,

I SWIPED HIS CREDIT CARDS.

DIDN'T YOU SAY SOMETHING ABOUT HOT WATER GETTING COOLER?

AS IN SWEPT THROUGH THIS MAGNETIC CARD READER.

IT--IT READS THE MAGNETIC STRIP

AND THEN SAVES THE INFORMATION TO THE COMPUTER.

NOW, THIS IS CLIVE'S TOTAL-MART CARD.

THESE THREE BANDS ARE TRACKS ON THE MAG STRIPES,

AND THE PEAKS AND VALLEYS REPRESENT THE DATA.

THERE'S DATA ON ALL THREE TRACKS.

SO?

SO TYPICALLY ONLY TWO TRACKS HAVE DATA ON THEM.

THE THIRD SHOULD BE EMPTY, AND YET IT ISN'T.

AND THIS IS A BREAKTHROUGH?

ALL I SEE IS HIEROGLYPHICS.

WATCH WHAT HAPPENS WHEN I RUN A LITTLE DE-ENCRYPTION ROUTINE.

[typing]

IT'S A LIST OF MEN'S NAMES.

18 NAMES TO BE EXACT.

EACH FOLLOWED BY TWO SETS OF DIGITS.

CLIVE ALPERT'S THERE, BUT WHO ARE THESE OTHER GUYS?

I DON'T KNOW.

I'M NOT SURE WHAT THE TWO SETS OF NUMBERS ARE EITHER.

I KNOW WHAT ONE OF THEM IS, NEXT TO CLIVE ALPERT'S NAME.

HIS SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER.

HACKING INTO THIS IS A FEDERAL CRIME, YOU KNOW.

LET'S JUST PUT IT ON MY TAB, SHALL WE?

(Jordan) I'M STARTING TO SEE A PATTERN HERE, ARE YOU?

YEAH, THEY'RE ALL THE SAME AGE AS CLIVE,

GIVE OR TAKE A FEW YEARS.

AND THEY ALL GOT SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBERS

RIGHT AFTER 1946, AFTER WORLD WAR II.

AND THEY'VE ALL KICKED THE BUCKET.

EXCEPT FOR THIS ONE. HE'S STILL COLLECTING BENEFITS.

EDMUND BERG.

WE HAVE TO FIND THIS GUY.

DR. MACY.

WHAT A PLEASURE IT IS TO SEE YOU, SIR.

EVERETT ATKINS, JUNIOR.

YOU KNOW ME?

YOU KNOW WHO I AM?

IN MY LINE OF WORK, I SHOULD THINK SO.

YOU'RE CHIEF MEDICAL EXAMINER.

SO WE NEVER ACTUALLY MET?

I WOULDN'T EXPECT YOU TO REMEMBER.

I KNOW YOU'RE A TERRIBLY BUSY MAN.

WAS IT THREE YEARS AGO, ABOUT MID-JULY?

YES, IT WAS INDEED.

WHY DID I COME HERE?

SIR? THREE YEARS AGO, WHAT WAS THE PURPOSE OF MY VISIT?

IT WAS IN REGARD TO ONE OF OUR CLIENTS.

WAS IT DIANE CLARK?

YES, YES, AS A MATTER OF FACT, IT WAS.

WHAT ABOUT HER? I NEED TO KNOW. PLEASE.

AS I RECALL, DIANE CLARK WAS NOT A WOMAN OF MEANS.

SO WE PROVIDED HER WITH A BASIC PACKAGE.

LOW-BUDGET FUNERAL. GO ON.

WELL, THE DAY YOU VISITED, YOU DROPPED OFF A DRESS.

A DRESS?

FOR DIANE CLARK TO BE BURIED IN.

I THOUGHT IT WAS A VERY TOUCHING GESTURE, DR. MACY.

HI.

HI, I'M HERE TO SEE EDMUND BERG.

OH, I'M SORRY. VISITING HOURS ARE OVER.

EVEN FOR FAMILY? I'M HIS DAUGHTER.

I WASN'T AWARE MR. BERG HAD ANY CHILDREN.

ACTUALLY, NEITHER WAS HE, UNTIL RECENTLY.

DAD WAS KIND OF AN ANY-PORT-IN-A-STORM KIND OF GUY,

IF YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN.

HE'S IN ROOM 118.

THANKS.

HM-MM.

[cell phone ringing] HELLO.

(Nigel) REMEMBER THAT SECOND SET OF DIGITS?

THERE ARE ACCOUNT NUMBERS TO SWISS BANKS.

I'LL BE SURE TO ASK MR. BERG ABOUT THAT.

WHILE YOU'RE AT IT,

SEE IF HE KNOWS WHY ALL FUNDS HAVE BEEN WITHDRAWN

and all accounts closed within the last 12 hours.

THAT MIGHT BE KIND OF TRICKY.

EDMUND BERG DIED OF AN APPARENT HEART ATTACK.

[Nigel] That's a bit of a coincidence, isn't it?

ANYONE ELSE PAY HIM A VISIT?

JUST MEDICAL STAFF.

UH, LOOK, I THINK WE'VE TAKEN THIS

AS FAR AS IT CAN GO.

Okay, I'll call you later.

[glass breaks]

[door closes]

[door closes]

Damn it.

[footsteps]

bam! [car alarm blaring]

NICE TRY.

PEOPLE KNOW THAT I'M HERE.

YOU SHOULD HAVE LET THIS ONE GO.

I DON'T KNOW HOW.

IT'S ONE OF MY TRAGIC FLAWS.

WHY'D YOU KILL THESE MEN?

THEY DIED OF HEART ATTACKS.

NO TEST WILL EVER PROVE OTHERWISE.

ALL YOU'VE MANAGED TO DO IS PUT YOURSELF IN HARM'S WAY,

DR. CAVANAUGH.

AT LEAST TELL ME WHAT THIS IS ALL ABOUT.

WHY GO AFTER CLIVE ALPERT?

HAVEN'T I EARNED THE RIGHT TO KNOW?

HE CREATED AND FINANCED A SUPPORT NETWORK

FOR OTHER WAR CRIMINALS.

AND WHAT'S THAT HAVE TO DO WITH YOU?

I'M A DEBT COLLECTOR.

COLLECTING MONEY FROM OLD NAZIS.

RECOVERING STOLEN MONEY ON BEHALF OF CERTAIN PARTIES

FROM WHOM IT WAS TAKEN.

AND KNOCKING OFF OLD MEN IN THE PROCESS.

MY JOB WAS TO MAKE THEM PAY.

BUT IT'S NOT UP TO YOU TO BE JUDGE AND JURY.

YET HERE I AM.

SO YOU JUST HAND OUT HEART ATTACKS TO NAZIS?

OR OTHER PEOPLE AS WELL?

SOME THINGS ARE BETTER LEFT UNKNOWN.

I'M GETTING IN MY CAR NOW.

AND I'M DRIVING AWAY.

YOU DO WHAT YOU HAVE TO.

YOU KNOW, THERE'S JUST ONE MORE THING.

I'VE BEEN TOLD NOT TO DISCUSS THIS CASE WITH YOU,

SO IT'S BET IF YOU DON'T ASK-- NO, NO, NO.

I'M BEYOND ASKING QUESTIONS, BUG.

FOR WHAT IT'S WORTH,

I WISH THAT THINGS HADN'T GONE THIS WAY.

MAYBE IT'S HOW THEY'RE SUPPOSED TO GO.

I'D LIKE A MOMENT ALONE, IF YOU DON'T MIND.

GARRET?

SO I REMEMBER NOW.

IT WAS THREE YEARS AGO, THREE YEARS AGO LAST JULY.

YOU MEAN WHEN DIANE CLARK DIED?

THAT'S WHEN MAGGIE AND I SPLIT UP.

WHAT DOES THAT HAVE TO DO WITH--

I WAS DRINKING TOO MUCH,

TRYING NOT TO FEEL ANYTHING.

I LOVED MAGGIE SO MUCH.

SORRY, THAT MUST HAVE BEEN A VERY PAINFUL TIME.

BUT I ALSO HATED HER

FOR WHAT SHE WAS PUTTING ME THROUGH.

I BEGAN THINKING EVERYTHING'D BE ALL RIGHT IF SHE WERE DEAD.

THAT'S WHEN DIANE CLARK CAME IN.

I REMEMBER I WAS JUST ABOUT TO DO THE INTERNAL EXAM

WHEN I SAW THIS BIRTH MARK ON HER STOMACH.

MAGGIE HAD THE EXACTLY THE SAME MARK...

THE SAME SIZE, THE SAME SPOT, EVERYTHING.

YOU COULDN'T CUT HER.

I COULD BARELY EVEN LOOK AT HER.

I SIGNED HER OUT AND WALKED AWAY.

MAGGIE LEFT THIS DRESS IN THE CLOSET.

I TOOK IT TO THE FUNERAL HOME

FOR DIANE CLARK TO BE BURIED IN.

YOU WERE GOING THROUGH A CRISIS.

I'M SURE ELAINE WILL TAKE THAT INTO ACCOUNT.

NO, SHE WON'T.

SHE SHOULDN'T.

COME ON IN. SIT DOWN.

I'VE BEEN EXPECTING YOU.

THEN I HOPE I HAVEN'T KEPT YOU WAITING.

I WANT TO THANK YOU.

THANK ME. YEAH.

SEE, I DON'T TEND TO LOOK BACK. IT'S NOT MY NATURE.

BUT I'VE BEEN FORCED TO BECAUSE OF YOUR INVESTIGATION.

I'VE BEEN LOOKING OVER MY OLD CASES.

REMEMBER THEM ALL.

THIS GUY WORE A PENDANT AROUND HIS NECK

WITH A PHOTO OF HIS BEAGLE.

I REMEMBER THE NAMES, THE FACES, CAUSES OF DEATH,

THE FAMILY I WAS ABLE TO COMFORT IN SOME SMALL WAY.

YOU DON'T HAVE TO DEFEND YOURSELF TO ME, GARRET.

I'M NOT.

I'M JUST REMINDING MYSELF OF MY ROLE HERE.

AND I'M TELLING YOU

I'LL VIGOROUSLY FIGHT ANY EFFORT TO REMOVE ME.

I WOULD EXPECT NOTHING LESS.

NOT OUT OF FEAR OR EGO,

NOT BECAUSE OF POWER OR POLITICS.

BUT BECAUSE THIS IS WHAT I DO, AND I'M DAMN GOOD AT IT.

IS THERE ANYTHING YOU'D LIKE TO SAY

BEFORE I FILE MY REPORT ON THE CLARK CASE?

JUST THAT I STAND BY MY ORIGINAL FINDING

THAT SHE OVERDOSED ON HEROIN.

AND AS FAR AS THE UNUSUAL WAY THE AUTOPSY WAS DONE?

SOMETIMES THE PERSON ON THE TABLE

BECOMES MORE TO YOU THAN JUST A BODY.

MAYBE YOU KNOW WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT.

IF YOU DON'T, YOU'RE NOT FIT TO HAVE MY JOB.

THAT'LL BE ALL, DR. DUCHAMPS.

YOU SHOULD KNOW THERE'S A NATIONWIDE ALERT

FOR YOUR PARAMEDIC.

HE'S PROBABLY OUTTA THE COUNTRY BY NOW.

HOW'D YOU HEAR ABOUT IT?

DR. MACY HELD A BRIEFING

FOR SENIOR STAFF MEMBERS IN HIS OFFICE.

NICE TO KNOW HE STILL HAS AN OFFICE.

DIANNE CLARK'S TISSUE WORK CAME BACK

CONFIRMING THAT SHE DIED OF A HEROIN OVERDOSE.

MY REPORT WILL ENDORSE DR. MACY'S ORIGINAL AUTOPSY.

THAT'S GOOD.

HAS IT EVER OCCURRED TO YOU

THAT SOMEONE HIGHER UP THE LADDER

HAS IT OUT FOR DR. MACY?

SO WHAT? YOU'RE JUST THE HATCHET MAN?

[laughs]

YOU CAN AFFORD TO BE RIGHTEOUS.

YOU'RE LUCKY.

WELL, I CAN AFFORD IT.

IT STILL COSTS ME.

WHAT'S HE STILL DOING HERE?

WAITING FOR ME TO FILL OUT THE DEATH CERTIFICATE.

WELL, YOU CAN WHIP THAT OUT IN FIVE MINUTES.

NO, ACTUALLY WE JUST GOT CONFIRMATION

BACK FROM INTERPOL.

CLIVE ALPERT'S FINGERPRINTS MATCH THOSE

OF A NAZI WAR CRIMINAL.

I DON'T KNOW WHOSE NAME TO PUT DOWN HERE.

IF I TELL THE TRUTH,

HE LOSES HIS DAD ALL OVER AGAIN.

IF I DON'T, I'M JUST PART OF A LIE.

SOME ADVICE.

DON'T DO WHAT'S EASY.

DO WHAT'S RIGHT.

IT'S ALL HERE? EVERYTHING?

HOW DID YOU GET AHOLD OF THESE?

I FOUND THE GUY WHO TOOK THEM,

AND THEN I ASKED HIM TO GIVE THEM BACK.

THEY'RE ORDINARY THINGS, BUT THEY'RE HIS.

IT MAKES THEM PRECIOUS.

I'M SO GRATEFUL.

I GUESS THAT JUST LEAVES THE DEATH CERTIFICATE.

YEAH.

EVERYTHING SEEMS TO BE IN ORDER.

YOU KNOW PEOPLE USUALLY LOOK AT CAUSE OF DEATH FIRST.

NOT SURE WHY, BUT THEY DO.

YOU LOOKED AT HIS NAME.

I-I JUST FORGOT DAD'S MIDDLE NAME WAS HARRIS.

IS IT THAT?

OR ARE YOU WORRIED THIS MIGHT SAY WHO HE REALLY WAS.

I KNOW WHO HE REALLY WAS.

HE WAS MY FATHER.

WE'RE CLOSED.

JUST SO YOU KNOW, CLIVE ALPERT WAS NOT A STAND-UP GUY.

HE WAS WHO I SAID HE WAS.

I BET HIS SON'S GLAD YOU CLEARED THAT UP FOR HIM.

I DIDN'T. HE ALREADY KNEW.

HE KNEW, AND HE LOVED HIS FATHER ANYWAY.

SO ARE YOU STILL CLOSED?

WELL, YOU KNOW, MY WATCH IS FAST.

IT'S LAST CALL.

LET'S MAKE IT A ROUND.

ON ME.
