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
