I understand you're hungry. I'm coming.
You are being very, very bossy right

now.

Okay.

Hey, what's the date?

The 6th. Why?

Uh, absolutely nothing.

No reason. Morgan,

I need you at the 400 block of Hilgard
Avenue as soon as possible.

Oh. Gosh, I would love to, but Ludo had
kind of a gross thing happen with his

driver's ed car.

Nervous teenager.

I'm picturing your face right now. You
really don't care about this story.

Point is, he borrowed my car. I don't
have one. So hop on the bus, okay? Just

get there. I'll drive you for the rest
of the day. Oh, there's a little 18

-pound problem with that, though. Four
words. Dead man, high profile. I'll see

you when you get there. Bye.

You don't hang up on me. I hang up on
you.

I'm coming.

No, I get it. But if you don't want to
take pennies, maybe you put up a sign,

okay? Otherwise, don't mind.

Don't be a pill today, okay, bud?

Who's our stiff?

Weren't you getting child care?

You know, I tried to tell you on the
phone that Lou doesn't work, so Chloe

be riding shotgun on this investigation.

Didn't answer the question, though.

Marvin Price.

The Marvin Price. You know who he is,
right?

Sportscaster. He called Dodger games?
Yeah.

The press is going to be all over us on
this one. Los Angeles sports fans love

this guy.

I mean, the way my dad talked about
Charmin Marvin, I thought he was my

He wouldn't miss a game the guy was
calling. It was the soundtrack to his

Thought he was his uncle.

Emmy says he died around 5 a .m. Not
sure yet if it's a hit and run or...

homicide. Tell him what you told us.

That dude was murdered for sure.

What makes you say that?

Because the driver hit him once, threw
it into reverse, and ran over him again.

Yeah, I'm gonna agree with our friend
here. That sounds like murder.

You mind?

I've got her.

Thank you.

Around what time was this?

Oh, after 5 a .m. Do you usually collect
on this route? Yeah, every other day.

So you said the car departed in that
direction?

Yeah, that way.

I'm borrowing your measuring tape.

And did it ever come back this way? No,
and I would have known if it did. It was

the loudest engine I've ever heard.

Did you get a make or model of the car,
a plate number, anything?

It was a Jensen Interceptor.

Malaga blue, maybe 73, 74.

What makes you say that?

James Bond had a Jensen.

He drove an Aston Martin. Not in the
later book, after Ian Fleming died. I

all of them. And I quote, Bond felt he
was in a low -flying plane rather than

automobile as he accelerated the Jensen.

The Jensen Interceptor had a Chrysler V8
engine, loud as hell, like a plane

taking off.

Also, the paint flecks on the dead guy's
watch are blue.

Malaga blue.

I'm thinking that when the car hit him
the first time, Price tumbled over the

hood and bashed his watch into the
paint.

Someone could have even gotten a custom
paint job on a U .S. model.

Yeah, but tire tracks are 69 inches
apart. Way too narrow for an American

car. Odds are, Jensen Interceptor.

Like a blue.

Well, let's test your theory.

If you're right, we should find that
Jensen Interceptor parked somewhere in

apartment garage.

Why would the murderer leave the car
there?

A, we're standing on a no -outlet
street. B, our friend here said the car

come back this direction. And C, it's
street cleaning, Deos. That means

no cars on the street. Only place that
car could have gone is that apartment

building's garage.

This is a big case, Morgan. If we don't
solve it, we're going to get crucified.

She said this guy Price, he was beloved.

Oh, big time.

My dad could do a spot -on Marvin Price
impression.

Clean up in aisle nine.

Someone just dropped a can of corn.

Guys, over here.

Still have to uncover it, or do we have
to wait for a warrant?

Ta -da!

That's a Jensen Interceptor. That's very
impressive, Morgan, but you know,

there's a process that we... Plates are
missing. Bumper, Dennett, Hank's chips.

What you got?

Okay, so Price and his neighbor, Phil
Elko, they were involved in a series of

tit -for -tat lawsuits. Sounds like
things got pretty ugly.

Well, with what's left of the day, you
and Oz go talk to Phil. Morgan and I

visit Marvin's place, and we'll debrief
in the morning. But do me a favor,

Daphne, before you head out, run a
little search on our stolen 1974

please. Will do. No men, no plates. It
might take a few days. Maybe they'll be

prints.

Hey, boss, we got company. That's
Price's son, Dexter. He came in on his

accord. He wants to speak to the
detective and charge the investigation.

Says he was on the phone with his dad
when he was murdered.

That is everything I could find on him
in a ten -minute search.

Boss, good job. Offer the man some
coffee, put him in the soft room. I'll

him in a couple minutes. Yeah, on it.

When I have something, I'll tell you.

Well, you know how it works, Jerry.
You'll know when I know. All right.

Later.

Every reporter in town is calling me
with questions about Marvin Price.

Are we thinking he was murdered?

Well, the killer ran him over twice and
abandoned the car in an nearby parking

garage. So, yeah.

Mm -hmm. We're about to question his
son. And where's Morgan?

She's cleaning baby puke out of my car.

She brought her baby to work?

Yes, she did.

Well, that is a first.

And hopefully a last. Ludo's picking
Chloe up within the hour.

All right.

Once you question Price's son, circle
back with me. I need to give the press

update on soon.

You got it.

It's a Jensen Interceptor.

Ah, Interceptor.

Uh -huh.

Yeah, the British model.

It's no longer around.

Where's Karadack? He's interviewing the
victim's son in there.

Question. Do you think you can keep my
daughter safe for the next ten minutes?

I suppose so.

Karadack, wait up!

We're very sorry for your loss, Dexter.

Charming Marvin was a big part of my
life growing up.

It's very kind.

I know all of L .A. is mourning him as
this legend, but that's not who he was

me. To me, he was the guy who was
jamming out to Earth, Wind & Fire when

dropped me off for school.

As rocky as our relationship was at
times, I just... I can't believe this is

end of it.

Well, let me assure you, this one's
personal for me.

It's personal for a lot of people.

Can you tell me who would have wanted to
harm your dad?

Tiana Johnson murdered my father.

Uh, who's that?

She was his live -in house manager.

Why the air quotes?

My father could never resist a pretty
face.

Last year, he made her the sole
beneficiary in his will.

I hear that you were on the phone with
your father when he was struck. Tell us

about it.

I was returning my dad's call.

At 5 a .m.? That's when we chat.

He gets up every morning before dawn.

At least, he did.

Then he'd go down to the Boulevard
Diner, he'd get his newspaper, drink his

coffee, eat his pancakes.

I knew he'd be free then.

What did your dad want to talk about?

His will.

He told me he made a mistake putting
Tiana in it, and he was considering

changing it back.

With you as the beneficiary?

Yes.

Tiana must have got wind of this, and
that's why she did it.

I knew she killed him the second I heard
the impact.

Before his dying word.

Tiddlywags.

Tiddlywags? Really?

Does that mean anything to you?

A nickname for Tiana, maybe? I have no
idea what he meant.

Why did your dad want to take you out of
his will in the first place?

Maybe because I like the theater more
than the ball field.

Or maybe because Tiana had her hooks in
too deep.

You know, it says here that you filed
for bankruptcy, Dexter. Your father's

money could have come in handy now.

If money was a motive for killing my
dad, shouldn't I have waited until I was

the will?

I wasn't sure if you were here today.

Yeah, just handing my baby off to her
dad. I don't want to brag, but I brought

her to her first crime scene today.

Didn't let her see the dead body,
though, because I'm a good mom.

What about you? Coming or going?

I'm going.

Finished nursing school. I got a job off
for last week.

No way.

Last week.

Yep.

Got a missed call.

I was excited to tell you.

Pretty sure I left, like, two more
messages before I got the hint.

No, not...

Not a hint. I wasn't hinting. Morgan,
it's okay.

No hard feelings. I get it.

No, you don't get it.

You don't get it because no one gets it.
I wasn't trying to ignore you.

I just didn't return the... I'm just
focused on other stuff, so it

makes it hard to... I don't know how to
explain it. You don't have to.

Okay, well, let's do something.

Let's do a picnic. Do people still do
picnics?

You know, we get the tray of fruit and
cubed meats.

Eat on the ground. That sounds fun,
right?

Let me do that. I'll do that.

It sounds nice.

But I'm leaving tomorrow morning.

My nursing job's at San Diego General.

Oh.

San Diego is very far away.

It is.

Okay. Well...

Congratulations.

You worked really hard.

Thanks.

Sorry.

Morgan, you ready?

Yeah.

Gotta go.

Yeah.

Me too.

Hey, Morgan.

You know, San Diego's not that far.

That must be Price's home.

Oh, you think?

You know, it'd be nice if Elko was the
owner of a 1974 Jensen Interceptor. He's

not. Carradick had me check already.

Well, hello.

Phil Elko? Yeah.

Leva is this.

Daphne Forrester. We're detectives of
the LAPD. You hear about Marvin or

Marvin Price, your murdered neighbor?

Yeah, sure.

Come on in.

Are you sure I can't get you anything?

No.

How did you hurt your foot?

Oh, skiing accident.

Okay, I did not like Marvin.

And I'm sure you already know that.

Well, you two like suing each other.
Tell us about those lawsuits.

Well, let's see.

His dog instigated the first one.

His dog?

Son of a bitch wouldn't stop barking,
day and night. I complained so many

and Marvin did nothing about it. When
the dog died...

Marvin said he found downers in a doggy
tree. Said I was responsible.

Then were you?

Look, I did not lament the dog's
passing, but I was not responsible for

After that, Marvin sues. And if that
wasn't enough for the old bastard,

me.

Check it out.

What are we looking at? Exactly.

This used to be a spectacular city -like
view until Marvin planted those giant

trees in front of his house.

Now it's a view of next to nothing.

Those trees look dead.

Guess what Marvin claimed?

What? Said he found copper nails
hammered into them, and he tried to

Mr. Elko, where were you at five this
morning?

Here, in bed, like a normal person.

Can anyone vouch for you? I did have
company.

I'll give you her number.

It feels weird being here.

Marvin Price's home.

You know, my dad ran into him one time
at this fish place on the PCH.

He works up the nerve to ask Marvin for
an autograph, right? He gets the

autograph. And Marvin stood there and
talked to my old man for like ten

Really gave him the time of day.

You see what I mean?

The man was loved.

Miss Johnson, LAPD?

No, I'm Mr. Price's housekeeper.

Come in.

Detective, welcome.

Where would you like to talk?

Anywhere you feel comfortable, Miss
Johnson.

The den, I think.

Marcella, I can't find my phone. Would
you mind looking for it for me? Of

course. Thank you.

This way.

Gorgeous house?

Marvin was very particular about that
sort of thing.

Do you mind if I grab a water?

Help yourself.

Wow.

Hey, this is right after Kirk Gibson's
big home run in the 88 series, right?

Marvin loved talking about that game.

You a baseball fan?

Not really.

I was a good listener, and, oh, Marvin,
he loved to tell stories.

So, um, what can I help you with?

Well, why don't you tell us about your
relationship with Marvin?

I oversee the smooth running of the
house.

But that's not really what you want to
know, is it?

You want to know if I was sleeping with
him?

No.

Marvin was not my lover.

But I loved the man.

He was like a second father to me.

Did Marvin want more out of the
relationship?

Probably.

But he never said so out loud.

Did you know he majored the sole
beneficiary in his will?

Yeah, I did.

Do you think it's strange, given your
platonic relationship, that he named you

beneficiary when he has a living son?

Who, Dexter?

That's who you should be talking to.

Marvin said he hit the roof when he told
him.

He was always coming to Marvin for
money.

Where were you at 5 a .m.? You know,
here in bed, alone.

So no alibi.

I never learned to drive.

Did Marvin ever mention anything to you
about the possibility of removing you

from the will and putting Dexter back
in?

No.

But I wouldn't have cared if he did.

That's not why he was important to me.

Do you have any idea why tiddlywinks
would have been his last word?

No clue.

Tiana had to be sleeping with Price.

I don't think so.

In a healthy man ready for a roll in the
hay, blood's got to travel to all the

necessary body parts. Oh, boy.

Price was on blood thinners and
antidepressants. That combo is going to

70 -year -old man from any bedroom
shenanigans.

I did get the sense you really loved
him, though.

There was a sack lunch in the fridge
with a little heart that dotted the I in

Marvin's name.

I don't suppose you found anything in
the house that would explain

I did not. And that's going to drive me
nuts.

I say we take the 101 back to the
precinct.

Morgan. We're going to save like 10
minutes over Surface Street. Morgan, did

take Tiana's phone?

It was in the couch cushions.

It's always in the couch cushions.

Honest mistake. It looks just like my
phone.

But now that we do have it, I think we
should take it back to Daphne and have

her dig around in here and see what
Tiana's been talking about. You are

take it back to the house and hand it
back to Tiana.

It's inadmissible.

How'd it go with Tiana?

Oh, I don't think she killed Morgan.

So where's this guy?

We didn't need to come, Morgan. I can
talk to him. I understand that, but if

this G .O. person knows anything about
what happened to Roman, I really want to

hear it myself.

Okay?

Well, the question is, will he tell us
what he knows? Right now, I'm starting

wonder if he'll even show.

I'll take the lead.

What's good here?

You tell us.

Well, I find you can learn a lot about a
place by their pancakes.

Easy to do well, hard to do great.

Well, you can order one of everything
you want if you have information to help

us.

You know why I called?

Yeah, same as everyone else. You got a
problem and you think I'm the answer.

Roman Sinqueira.

That name's supposed to mean something
to me.

It should.

You met with him before he disappeared,
15 years ago.

Yeah?

Yeah, I heard it from multiple sources.

Can you tell me I'm wrong?

I mean, maybe I met this guy, maybe I
didn't.

I mean, 15 years is a long time ago, and
I'm sorry, my memory's not that good.

I think it is.

Where were you 15 years ago, huh?

Hell, where were you 15 days ago?

15 days ago, that was a Tuesday.

I, for one, was at a hardware store.

They were having a sale on energy
-efficient light bulbs. I saved $3 .42.

But here's the problem. Out in the
parking lot, I ran over a nail with my

and the patch to fix the tire, that cost
me $40.

So I didn't exactly come out ahead.

But more importantly, 15 years ago, my
daughter was just a baby, and I'm really

trying to figure out what happened to
her dad. So I'd really appreciate it if

you could stop wasting our time.

I have a 16 -year -old nephew.

Good kid, smart.

Wants to develop video games.

A couple of weeks ago, he got in
trouble. Got mixed up with the wrong

Taken a few billboards, trying to
express himself.

Now he's going to be charged with a
couple of misdemeanors.

That is, unless someone can help him
out.

Well, in order for us to consider that,
we need some assurances that you

actually have information.

You know, I don't think there's anything
in this manual for me.

Don't worry.

I'll find out what he knows.

Why would Roman be meeting with a guy
like that?

Hey. What?

What you doing?

How cute is this?

Oh, I think the brightness is down on
your phone. I can't see anything.

No, Mom, seriously.

What do you think of the car?

I think it's adorable.

And I think you're adorable for thinking
I'm going to get you a car. I'm

literally months away from driving. We
are literally years away from being able

to afford a brand new Volkswagen.

Can we talk about it later?

Sure.

What?

I can always... Tell him something's up
with you.

I was just going through some of your
dad's old stuff, and I noticed that

were a couple things missing.

I just wanted to look through his
artwork. Sorry, I should have asked. No,

okay. Don't be sorry. You're not in
trouble.

I just don't want you to feel like you
have to sneak stuff like that.

Right? Because if there's anything you
want to talk about, I'm here.

That night when Lieutenant Soto stopped
by, I heard her talking to you about how

they've... found his car, and they found
the diapers that he had bought for me.

Oh, baby.

I didn't know that.

It's okay.

It made me... I don't know.

It's okay. It made you what?

Sometimes the way your brain works is
still super annoying, but you're usually

right about everything, so if you don't
believe he left us, then neither do I.

cozy tonight, covered in a blanket known
as Felix Jefferson.

The 23 -year -old from Mississippi was
gifted the feet of Apollo and a glove

made of pine. Mom.

Hi, baby.

Did you go to bed last night?

I can't sleep. I must watch baseball.

Why?

Because pretty soon that man talking on
TV is going to say tiddlywinks and Mom's

going to figure out what it means and
solve the case and not have to think

everything else that's keeping her up at
night.

Tiddlywinks is a game invented in 1888
where squidgers were used to launch Winx

into a pot.

I love you, goofball.

Go make some cereal. Okay.

Brush your teeth. Good Lord.

Detective.

Mr. Price.

I'm sorry to bother you so early.

Did you get a chance to talk to Tiana?

I did.

Did you get the impression she had any
interest in my dad beyond his money?

I did, actually.

Tiana said you hounded your father about
money. Is that true, Dexter?

My daughter.

She's autistic.

We wanted to change schools to get
better support her needs, but we

afford it.

And Marvin wouldn't help his own
granddaughter?

Kimmy's not his granddaughter. She's his
step -granddaughter.

My dad and my husband weren't on the
best of terms.

Is your father still alive?

No.

Did you get a chance to say goodbye to
him?

Tell him what he meant to you?

I did.

When dad was murdered, we were arguing
about his will.

My lasting memory is going to be of him
calling me a vulture.

Now all I can hope for is some measure
of justice.

Hey, what do we got?

Still double -checking Elko's alibi.

He has an alibi? Yeah, but she doesn't
want to talk to us.

Why?

She got married six weeks ago.

Well, smart to double -check it then.
Daphne, any luck on the car?

Well, depending on how far back we go
and how big of a radius around L .A. I

use, there's as many as 16 potentials.
We got Nova Storm Industries, Autofile

Holdings, Enigma Sync Tech Solutions,
Lumina Corsets.

It's a lot. Well, I get it. Keep
digging. Yeah. Adam? Yeah. You got a

-hmm.

Tell me, are you still on good terms
with the district attorney?

Asia. I mean, it's complicated, but
yeah, we're good. Why? Good enough to

for a favor?

That depends.

What is this about?

16 -year -old kid who needs rehab
instead of jail.

Who's the kid?

Nephew of a guy named Gio Conforth.

Am I supposed to know who that is? No,
but you will soon enough.

Selena, what the hell's going on?

It's Morgan.

When she came to work with us, she asked
for my help.

We're finally getting somewhere, but we
need an assist.

Yeah.

Yeah, okay.

Fine, give me all the details you got on
the kid, and I'll see what I can do.

By the time I hear back from the
National Insurance Crime Bureau and

every corner of the Secretary of State
database, whoever murdered Marvin will

probably be dead, too.

Well, how many owners of a Jensen
Interceptor have you ruled out? All the

individuals, but some of these LLCs are
owned by other LLCs.

And without a VIN, the National Motor
Vehicle Title Information System won't

help us.

Thus.

You know, I know a great dentist when
you need one.

Wait a minute. What?

He was lying.

Who?

Elko. See?

The car?

Auto file holdings.

What about it?

Auto.

Bill.

E.

Bill Elko.

Let's go arrest that son of a bitch.

Philip Elko, you're under arrest for the
murder of Marvin Price.

You have the right to remain silent and
refuse to answer questions.

Hold on.

What's going on here? We found your
Jensen interceptor, Mr. Elko, the one

you used in the murder. You found Ringo.

John, Paul, George, and now you found
Ringo. The band is back together.

Yeah, but Ringo killed your neighbor.

It was stolen a week ago.

I filed the police report and provided
surveillance video the day I got back

from Aspen and discovered it was gone.

You know, I've been mulling over
Marvin's murder.

Oh, have you?

Every time Marvin would leave town on a
team road trip, I noticed this guy in a

motorcycle would pull into Marvin's
garage.

Now, I wanted to be a good neighbor, so
I left him a note letting him know

what's going on. She has a boyfriend.

Now, the next time Marvin left town...

The boyfriend shows up.

But this time, Marvin was expecting him,
so he doubles back.

Now, I'm guessing he caught them in
flagante delecto, because two minutes

Motorcycle Man came peeling out of the
driveway.

Okay. Spoke to Crosland. Says he did
take a stolen car report from Mr. Elko.

just hadn't entered in the system yet.

Did you say you had surveillance video?

The count means one strike, one out.

If you are, what do you mean? Ricky
Thomas subsists on escargot alone.

Mom,

can you turn that down? I can't. I'll
fall asleep.

Yeah, that's the point of going to bed.
Humans need sleep.

I've got to be superhuman.

No, you don't.

Wait.

Are you investigating that baseball
guy's murder?

Mm -hmm. All the boys are talking about
it.

Tiddlywinks!

You said it! You said tiddlywinks! You
said it! You did it!

Oh, yes!

Oh, thank you.

Here you go.

Thanks.

Keep it open.

Got it.

Maxwell. Yes, indeed.

Really?

What do you want?

Don't hate the player.

I think it's time we retire that
catchphrase.

So, you break out with somebody?

Let me guess. You want to exchange last
name?

Damn. Throwing the high inside he, huh?

I come in peace for two reasons. Oh,
pace yourself.

I have an informant.

Slippery. Can't quite put my finger on
why yet, but he claims to have a nephew

sitting in juvie that needs to be
sitting in rehab.

So what's he dangling?

As far as I can tell, information on a
missing person's case.

Family needs closure.

Kid's on Judge Falerico's docket.

Someone ate their lucky charms.

He owes me and I owe you.

Text me the kid's info. Will do.

Now, what's the second thing?

And it better be good.

Hey.

Got your text. What's up?

Karen, I got the D .A. to play ball in
Gio's nephew.

Now we just see if we actually get
something in return.

Sweetie, sit around and wait.

We wait.

We've got video.

Bring me up to speed.

Turns out the neighbor, Elko, is the
owner of the murder car. So that's our

No, not necessarily. He filed a stolen
car report a week ago.

Can you play it back again?

And this footage is

timestamped and matches the day Elko
said the car was stolen.

It's possible to alter if you just...
Our killer's name is Olivier Dubois, and

he works at Hollywood Auto.

Did you just Google who's the killer on
your phone, Morgan?

No, I did not do that, Adam. I was just
watching the security footage, like you,

and it's all on there.

Explain. Okay.

So, when I accidentally picked up
Tiana's phone, I saw she was getting a

from Hollywood Auto.

And who would be skilled enough to
hotwire a car?

A mechanic.

Morgan. Check out the logo on the car
thief's shoe.

Do you see that distinctive G logo?

That stands for Gervais. It's a French
shoe brand.

Also, the guy is 6 '5".

How can you tell?

He's standing against a brick wall.

Each of these cinder blocks is 8 inches
tall. This guy measures up to about 9

1⁄2 bricks. That's 76 inches at an inch
from mortar.

That takes us to 65.

It makes sense. Now, the folks down at
Hollywood Auto are so proud of their

mechanic staff that they decide they're
going to put a photo of their crew up on

their website.

So I asked myself, which one of these
guys is going to go out and buy French

sneakers? Is it Benito Zapata?

Hans Schmidt, Romeo Bonetti, Mustafa
Bashar, LaShawn Booker, or Olivier

More importantly, who is sexy Tiana
Johnson going to take as her lover? And

going with this 6 '5 Gaelic hunk.

Oh, my God! Thank you! Oh, my God!

Whoa! Whoa!

Motive. Elko says Marvin Price walked in
on this woman he adored but couldn't

have. She is in bed with Olivier. He's
eerie.

He tells Tiana, that's it.

I'm taking you out of my will.

Olivier, knowing about Marvin's feud
with his neighbor, steals Elko's fancy

sports car and runs him over with it.

But Olivier wants us to find the car.
That's why it was so easy.

Elko is capacity.

And what about Marvin's dying word?

Tiddlywinks. What does that mean?

Don't know. I've heard Marvin say it,
but I've not figured that part out yet.

All right. Get down to Hollywood Auto.
Talk to this Olivier Dubois.

We'll check it out.

Detective Adam Karadek, LAPD. Hoping to
talk to one of your mechanics.

Which one?

Olivier Dubois.

What'd he do?

Not sure yet.

Karadek? Can I see that badge again,
please?

Yeah.

Olivier Dubois, you're under arrest for
the murder of Marvin Price.

Okay.

Okay. There we go, huh? Team Puck.

Yeah.

Your boyfriend, Olivier, claims he was
with you at the time of Marvin's murder,

but that can't be true, can it? Because
he said you were alone when we asked

your alibi.

He claims he ran from me because he's
here in the U .S. on an expired visa.

So were you with him, Tiana?

Yes. Where?

At his place.

Weird. You told us you were at Marvin's.

Look, I didn't want to bring up Olivier.
I knew he'd be a suspect.

I didn't want to get him sent back to
France.

But Marvin did find out about the two of
you, true?

Yes.

How did Marvin react when he caught the
two of you?

He just told Olivier to get out.

He didn't fly off the handle?

No.

He was pretty calm.

He just kept telling me that Olivier was
a waste of my time and that I was meant

for better things. Wait, he said that
Olivier was a waste of time? Yeah. Did

Marvin ever learn Olivier's name?

No.

Tiddlywinks! Being executed out there.
What a waste of time. It's Tiddlywinks.

He's stretching on the mound. More
Tiddlywinks.

Oh! A waste of time. That's how Marvin
referred to Olivier?

Yeah.

Tiddlywinks is a word that Marvin used
when he was referring to a waste of

On the mound, in a batter's box.

His last breath he used to let us know
who his murderer was. This waste of time

that you're protecting.

Olivier Dubois.

Are you willing to go to prison for him,
Tiana? We are going to prove that he

murdered Marvin.

That makes you an accessory.

After he... he found the two of us
together.

He always referred to Olivier as that
waste of time.

I was.

By myself the night Marvin was murdered.

I never saw Olivier.

I wish Marvin never put me in his will.

About that will.

Just a couple questions.

This afternoon, my team arrested Olivier
Dubois, a French national.

For the murder of Los Angeles icon
Marvin Bright, I'd like to thank my

consultant, Morgan Guillory, for her
stellar work on the case.

I'll take some questions now.

Yes.

Hey,

just wanted to let you know that Tiana's
given up all claim on your dad's

estate.

She realized it would help her defense.

Do you help her realize that?

You know, Marvin would have liked you.
You're his type of guy. No.

Your dad loved you, Dester.

You must know that.

Oh, my dad loved Fernando Tommy Piazza
Garvey.

He tolerated me.

You know, I saw his office.

Yeah.

He had pictures of baseball legends,
like, all over it. But he had this one

single frame shot just right on his
desk.

It was you.

It was?

Mm -hmm. Yeah, it looked like you were
on a play. Yeah, like a crown.

That must have been me and Henry V.

That was on his desk?

The only photo.

I'm so grateful I got the chance to say
goodbye to my dad.

And it's so unfair that you didn't get
that chance with yours.

Thank you, Detective.

Morgan is an independent outsider. I
hope you feel good about solving the

I do.

I did have some help.

I

guess

I owe you one.

Only one, huh?

You owe me so many more than one, so
technically I don't really owe you

at all.

Oh, so I owe you now.

Yes.

But I'm willing to call it even. Oh,
that's very generous of you, Morgan.

Seriously, though, thank you.

And I'm sorry I didn't tell you about
Roman earlier.

I just... No, it's okay.

I get it, and I understand why.

I mean, you had Soto working on the
case, right?

Very smart move. There's nobody better
than her.

She taught me half of what I know.

But I'm here now, too, so whatever you
need, however I can help, just say the

word.

I will.

All right.

Be careful.

I did my research.

Guys like Gio, they keep guys like me up
at night, you know?

Understood.

Give me a lift.

I don't think I'm going your way.

Yeah, you are.

I gotta get home to my kids, so I... Not
far.

Won't take long.

Look, I didn't spend a lot of time with
Roman.

But it was enough to know that he was a
good guy.

What do you say?

Leaving town for a while.

When I get back, see if I got something
to offer.

That's it?

No. It's going to be on my terms.

I don't want nobody reaching out to me,
especially your cop friends.

The less communication, the better.

Understand? Yeah. Yeah, it sounds like
you got what you wanted and now you're

taking off.

Got what I wanted?

Lady, we're nowhere close to that.

Take this next left.

I don't believe you.

I don't think you've ever met Roman.

Oh, yeah?

I know he was afraid.

Not just for himself, but for his
family, too. Yeah.

Yeah, who wouldn't guess that?

Ava Morgan.

You guys used to call yourself the Rams,
right?

He told me that.

Where were they going without ever
knowing
