Hello, Wales.

Hey, can you get the hell out of my house? Not until we talk about Gina

Ten years ago today, she disappears from the Welltown Mall parking lot. I ain't

got nothing to say to you or her whack -job sister.

You guys see him? Yeah.

Yeah.

I'm gonna prove it was you, Wales.

Good luck.

I'm not gonna stop until I find out what happened to your sister.

Any law enforcement?

Tacoma PD, retired.

Name's Keaton. Maybe you could help me out.

Gina Pickett. I've been looking for ten years.

Well, I owe you.

Dory. Yeah.

I haven't heard that name in a while. Been playing phone tag.

Do you need to get that?

Now I can wait. You sure? Yeah. More of a conversation than I care to have right

now to be honest.

Do you remember this place?

Yeah, of course. How could I forget?

I'm surprised you remember this place after those Mai Tais. There was like ten

Mai Tais.

Ten? Well, I don't know what it was. I stopped counting after five. Well, I

needed the extra courage for the karaoke.

Oh, yeah, the karaoke.

Your rendition of Total Eclipse of the Heart was absolutely unforgettable.

How many of those would it take to get you on the stage? Oh, that number

exist. No, that'll never happen.

So what's this really about?

You were passing through town. I pass through town all the time?

Yeah.

And this place.

The last time we were here.

The night Gina vanished.

Yeah.

Do you ever wish you could go back and remember what it felt like between us

before that?

Everything changed after that night.

I think I need to move on.

This thing with my sister, it's like this big weight pressing down on me.

Everything I do, I don't go one day or one hour even without feeling it. It's

just not what Gina would have wanted.

I want you to know I have not stopped looking.

No, no, Colter.

I need to say it.

Gina's gone.

And whatever we had, I'm pretty sure that's gone, too. I know you feel it.

Just that I can't keep hoping.

I want to stop looking.

No more check -ins.

Okay. Because I can't see you without seeing her. And I know it didn't start

that way. I get it. But... Do you, really?

I said, okay. I said, I get it. I, uh... You know...

I don't know what more you want me to say.

I did ask someone to look into Gina's disappearance and ask the cop.

Maybe...

Maybe he sees something that I couldn't. Maybe there's nothing else to see.

We have to live with that.

You did everything you could have.

It's just... time to move on.

Dory again?

It's work.

Should you take that? Yeah.

I'll be right back.

Hey, Velma.

Hey, Coulter.

Sorry to bother you. No, it's okay. Never a bother.

Well, a job just came in. Another referral.

Graphic designer in San Francisco is looking for a brother.

15K reward.

Okay. There is a catch with this one. What's wrong with this?

Her brother isn't missing.

He's dead.

Alicia, we can do this later if now's not a good time.

No.

No, there is no good time sitting there day after day waiting.

But sometimes she comes back and she's there for a moment and then she's gone.

Cancer?

Pancreatic.

I'm not sure how to do this.

Your brother, Lucas, died in a car crash nine months ago, right?

Yes.

Well, that's what I thought.

He rolled a stop sign.

Gas truck hit him. Car exploded.

By the time the fire department arrived, there wasn't much left. It was just one

of those freak things is what they told me.

What makes you think your brother's still alive?

Two days ago, I was here with my mom, and I had to step out for a meeting. I

only gone for two hours.

But when I came back, my mom told me she'd seen Lucas.

I know what you're going to say was the morphine.

She's seen things, but it's not that.

She told me that Lucas came to say goodbye.

Told her he loved her and... What's this?

I'm gonna need more context.

Whenever we were sad or hurt or down as kids, my mother would take us to the

corner store and buy us a peanut butter cup to share. She'd tell us how it was

the strongest medicine in the world.

Sometimes people see what they want to see.

Yeah, my mother was lucid. She was sure she saw him. Anyone else see him?

Yeah, a nurse. Said it was some guy with a baseball cap pulled over his face.

She didn't get a good look at him, but if there was someone here, he'd sign the

guest registry.

Lou Reed.

My mom's favorite musician.

Look.

There's an old birthday card. It's the same man writing.

It is similar.

Is there any reason why someone would want you to think your brother was still

alive or maybe take advantage of your mother?

No.

Not that I can think of.

We were just a boring family. My brother was an average guy working in a

computer repair shop, saving up for grad school.

I mean, it's not impossible.

He didn't die in that accident, right?

They identified the body.

Yes.

But there wasn't much left after they put out the fire.

I know it doesn't make any sense.

But my gut says there's something here.

And I have the money to pay you.

I'll look into it.

Thank you.

Looking for ghosts now, are we?

Maybe. She lost her brother. She's about ready to lose her mother. People grieve

in different ways.

So, what are we looking for exactly?

All I know is somebody visited the hospital.

She immediately jumps to dead brother?

Signed in under a fake name. I took a look at the handwriting. It is similar.

We've had less to go on, right?

You're telling me.

I just want to give her some answers, even if it's not what she wants to hear.

Okay, so was there any video footage from the security cameras at the

There's no footage of this visitor coming or going. There's no cameras at

nurse's station.

Then we're sure someone was there.

Just look into it. Will you see what Lucas was into?

Maybe there's some answers there.

Or maybe he's just dead.

Maybe.

Sister said he was coming from work at the time of the accident.

Yeah, I'm looking into it now.

The place is called Big Bite Computer Repair.

Huh.

That sucks.

You know something about computer repair stores that look like a front?

A little bit.

Looks like the place was broken into two days ago.

The same time Lucas supposedly visited the hospital.

I'll look into it.

Good luck, Ghostbuster.

I'll just keep snooping on my end.

You with the alarm company?

No. Bummer. I've been waiting all day.

Sorry, we're not taking any more repairs today.

Hear about Lucas Jones.

What about him?

He's dead.

Nine months ago. His sister's not so sure about that.

Judging by the look on your face, neither of you.

Am I wrong?

It's weird.

What's weird?

Do you play World of Warcraft?

No. It's an MMORPG that makes... I know what that is.

What's it have to do with Lucas?

A few months ago, his player popped up online, and they were really good.

We started chatting, and the more we interacted, the more I had this uncanny

feeling it was Lucas.

And I should know. That game was kind of our thing.

You two dated? Yeah.

Casual, and then...

Not so casual. I mean, the accident.

Clear from the game, did you ask if it was him?

No. That would be lame.

Like, hey, super random, but any chance you're my dead boyfriend?

Hell no.

Got it.

Tell me about the break -in. Did you, uh, did you see who it was?

Nope. Cameras went down right before they smashed the glass.

What was taken?

Nothing we could see.

Definitely weren't here for the furniture.

Right.

Maybe there's something else.

Where was Lucas's workstation?

There.

Now it's Creepy Gary's.

You mind if I... Go ahead.

It's like something taped down up there. You have any idea what that might be?

No.

Could Lucas have turned off the security cameras?

Yeah, but you don't think... You think it was him who broke in? I think whoever

it was was definitely hiding something here.

Lucas, was that there two days ago?

Yeah. Why?

And the whole camera.

You didn't know about it?

Gary kept accusing people of stealing snacks.

I didn't realize he went full surveillance, Dan Mark.

I'm assuming you have a card reader.

Not him.

Yeah. That's him.

That's Lucas.

He's a mutt.

You get that pinhole camera footage I sent you?

Yeah, man.

Dead man walking.

What'd you find?

Well, something a little weird happened before he died. Well, it didn't.

He called this woman's number a crazy amount of times a week before his

accident. What's her name?

Stephanie Hollis.

Looks to her, went to school together.

She was actually a pretty well -known YouTuber.

You say what?

Yeah, she was killed five days before his accident.

Robbery gone wrong.

A strange coincidence?

And after she died, he erased all traces of her from his cell phone.

No socials, emails.

He wiped her from the whole system.

So Stephanie's found dead, and then five days later, Lucas fakes his own death.

There's definitely a connection.

I wonder what they got into.

Well, from what I'm seeing, Lucas doesn't seem suspicious.

I'll check the accident report if the police will start there.

Detective Goodman.

You Colter Shaw?

He's remaining with me.

You got five minutes. I'm on my way to an arraignment.

What's this about? Look, it's Jones. You're the detective that investigated

car crash that supposedly killed him, right?

Supposedly? He's alive.

What are you talking about?

That's impossible.

We ID'd the remains.

This is footage of him breaking into the computer repair shop that he used to

work at, and that was taken two days ago.

It's grainy, but it's him.

I'd like to see that.

How about a deal?

Bystander recorded the car crash, right?

Yeah. Okay. Well, you show me that, and I'll show you this.

Okay. Deal.

There you have it.

Nobody could have survived this.

Hold on a second. Rewind.

Stop right there. This guy.

Cal Comey is walking away from the scene. Everyone else is walking towards

All that commotion around him, he's not reacting to anything.

So what are you saying?

I think he knew the crash was going to happen.

I think Lucas staged it, and I think this guy helped him.

Lucas was no Bond villain.

Even if he survived the crash, there's no way he would have survived the fire.

And what if he wasn't in the car?

We found human remains. The coroner matched dental records.

Yeah. I'm telling you, this guy knows something.

It's a good place to start.

One hell of a story, Mr. Shaw.

Why don't you watch this?

Then we'll talk.

I will.

Let me know if you find anything else.

Will do. Thank you, Detective.

Were you able to ID the guy from the accident footage?

No matches on the facial recognition software.

Scrubbed it front to back.

So the dead end.

Coulter, come on.

It's me.

I was able to follow him to his car using cameras in the area. Lots of

with security.

License plate.

Ding, ding, ding.

Registered to his business.

He's the owner of a third -generation bodega in Chinatown with his wife.

Any address?

Hello?

Hello?

Thank you.

Who the hell are you?

Colter Shaw.

I'm not a threat.

ID.

Back pocket?

Not here to hurt you.

I was hired.

to find Lucas Jones.

Is that your husband out there?

Looks like you help people create new identities, right?

If someone's in trouble, they come to you, you give them a fresh start?

You help Lucas?

He's back.

Paid a visit to his dying mother. He's been communicating with his ex

-girlfriend online.

I'm guessing this is an ideal behavior for any of your clients.

I don't know what the hell you're talking about.

You disappear people, right? That's your business?

I find people who are two sides of the same coin. I can help you find who did

that. You think the people who shot my husband were looking for Lucas?

Have you had any other breaches?

No. It couldn't be a coincidence.

I just find in my line of work.

Those come few and far between.

I'm Barbie.

I'm so sorry.

He was a good man.

Someone probably heard the gunshot that killed him.

Police are probably on their way. I'm sure you have information here that you

don't want to compromise.

One minute.

I'm going to kill the people who did this.

Sure about this?

My husband and I discussed this.

You must burn down the old life in order to start a new one.

Come on.

Get out of here.

Grab your bag. Let's go.

Thank you.

You talk about your husband?

I grew up in this business. It's all I ever knew.

But Philip, I roped him into it.

So what's next?

Start over.

Something I'm good at.

How does it work exactly? You, uh...

You fake someone's death, give them a new identity?

It's not always death.

There are different package options.

Sometimes a disappearance is enough.

Others want more certainty.

From the bodies?

The human remains found in Lucas's car after the accident?

You have a coroner on payroll?

Trade secret.

Are there others in your network?

Helping to cover the tracks?

Is there a point to this line of questioning?

Maybe. How did Lucas know where to find you?

When people come to us, they are out of choice.

When you're desperate enough, you know where to look.

And you never had anybody come back like this?

I pre -screen our client.

I know who's going to break under pressure.

You didn't think Lucas would?

No.

He was scared. It was life or death.

He was working with a woman, Stephanie Hollis. She died in a robbery.

You disappear her too?

No, never heard of her.

Maybe... Maybe Lucas found something, something he thought other people should

know about.

Shared it with Stephanie because she has an audience.

Stephanie gets silenced, Lucas figures.

He's next.

Did he tell you what he was running from?

No, we make it a point not to ask. Just offer a service.

But he knew the rules.

The risks of resurfacing.

My husband's blood is on Lucas's hands.

I'm going to help you find out who's responsible for killing your husband.

I'm very good at what I do.

But I need you to trust me.

As long as you understand what I'm going to do when I find them.

We'll deal with that later.

Right now we have to move quickly.

What was Lucas's new alias?

Isaac Newton.

Are you serious?

Makes it impossible to Google him.

That's right.

And there's no way your husband gives up that name? He would never break.

No matter what they did to him, that's why they had to kill him.

Give me one second.

Bobby, what do you got?

Well, I looked in Stephanie's YouTube account.

Found some video of her teasing some big political scandal.

She was killed before she could post it.

She also mentioned some secret source, but she doesn't mention who.

It's got to be Lucas.

So maybe he found something on a laptop he was repairing, shared it with her?

Yeah, I thought that too, but Croft's referenced his appointment logs, and I

don't see anybody in politics on the books.

I don't think anyone would bring their laptop in if they knew there was

incriminating evidence on it. It's probably a family member, maybe an

Okay. Looking into it.

Oh, wow.

Good call, Coulter.

Yeah, I got a credit card receipt here.

Lucas restored the crashed hard drive for the personal assistant of Tim

Who's that?

Some big, big real estate developer.

Rumor has it he's running for mayor, so sounds like he fits the bill.

It does.

All right, so an assistant brings their boss's crashed hard drive in for

service, doesn't know what's on it.

Lucas finds it, shares it with Stephanie because Stephanie's into politics.

She decides to break it, and folks bear.

Looks like the digital trail's pretty easy to follow. That's all you would

known was next.

Yeah.

And Crosby didn't kill Stephanie on his own. He had help.

Maybe Lucas made a copy of what he found, put it on a flash drive back at

repair shop, and it bartered his way out of this.

Risky. Desperate.

Do me a favor. Run an alias for me, will you?

Give me what it is. Isaac Newton.

Ungoogleable and smart.

Also pretty noticeable in a hotel reservation, so I'm going to see if he's

checked in anywhere.

Here we go.

And Isaac Newton checked into a Ridgewood Palace on Wednesday.

Room number is 126.

Nice work, Bobby.

What's the plan?

Working on it. Keep you posted.

I think I figured out a way for you to get your retribution.

Detective, thank you for coming.

Are you sure about this?

It's him.

Second under his alias. He's at the front desk and he's still upstairs.

Come on.

Why go to all this trouble to disappear?

You got any leads on who he's running from?

All I know is you need police protection.

Come on.

It's Lucas.

He's dead.

We went through his pocket. Did you find anything?

No. Empty.

Not even a wallet.

Looks like they robbed him before they killed him.

Thanks for your help, Mr. Shaw.

Police can take it from here.

We'll get some justice for the family.

Justice would be nice.

Hello.

It's me.

Lucas is dead.

You sure?

Yeah. Checked the body myself.

This your guide?

on his trail.

Because if it was someone else... Sit tight. Let me make some calls.

Chize, I'll meet you in half an hour.

You get all that?

Sure did.

How do you know the detective was dirty?

When someone beat me to the bodega, I figured whoever it was, we were

the same clue trail. The detective and I had the same lead, and then we found

out that Crosby was involved.

So that seemed like the type of guy to have a cop in his pocket.

It was a hunch.

And we got the proof.

Did you see what was on Lucas' flash drive?

I thought it was just a sex tape, but oof.

That turned quick.

Yeah. Some things you cannot see.

Drugs are wearing off.

I think, yeah.

My husband is dead because of you.

I'm sorry.

I'm so sorry. I never meant for any of that to happen.

It wasn't my guys.

Somebody else killed Lucas.

Who else wanted him dead?

Dunno. Don't care.

As far as I'm concerned, problem solved.

What problem would that be, Mr. Crosby?

Shaw.

So what's the arrangement between you two? You pay her, she covers up your

crimes? I don't know what you're talking about.

I've seen some very interesting footage on you. Now, I wouldn't want to describe

it. But I can understand why you killed to keep it hidden.

Mr. Crosby is developing a housing project in the area.

We were meeting to discuss permitting.

You sure?

You weren't just discussing all the bodies you left in your wake?

I don't know what you're talking about.

I'll show you.

Stop. Police.

Hand off your weapon.

Are you going to shoot me now?

Get on the ground.

A lot of witnesses here, detective.

I'm reaching with my off hand.

Drop your weapon.

I don't have a weapon.

This is better than a weapon.

This here is the reason you killed all those people.

Stephanie Holler, Phillip Lee.

Lucas Jones.

We had nothing to do with Lucas Jones.

But the other two.

You had your hand in that, didn't you?

FBI, drop your weapon.

Don't move. Hands in the air.

You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used

against you in a court of law.

You have the right to an attorney. If you cannot afford a lawyer, one will be

provided for you.

Let's go.

We got that justice after all, didn't we?

You had to see it for yourself.

That's not going to bring back my husband.

But it does feel good.

You ever want a job disappearing, people?

I've got one for you.

I think I'll stick a fine in.

He looks pretty good for a dead guy. Yeah, he's happy to be home.

Thank you. Thank you.

Hey, old Rob.

Glad I can be here.

Spend as much time with you as I can.

I had never meant for anyone to get hurt.

You don't have to make peace with that.

The good news is Crosby and everyone that was helping him, they're all going

prison.

Thank you.

I wouldn't be here without you.

Glad I could help.

I know how impossible it seemed that Lucas could be alive, but I just had

feeling.

Couldn't give up until I knew for sure.

I know that feeling.

You do?

More than you can imagine.

Take care.

Remember that case you asked me to look into?

Gina Pickett. I got something.

Where are you?

Outside San Francisco.

Well, I'm sending you an...

Tell me what this is all about.

You prepared to take this down the line.

All the way to hell.

Show me.

Sorry about the smell.

Wakey, wakey.

What are you doing here?

You asked me to look into Gina Pickett. I did.

You're going to be interested in what he has to say.

Alex, this here's my friend I told you about.

Tell him what you told me.

Tell him or you're going to get the stick.

Go on, now.

Start with a name.

Wales.

What do you know about Wales?

I know them from back in the day.

You're gonna have to eat better than that.

We were just kids, man.

Answer the question.

These guys are bad news. Come on.

We got into something.

It wasn't our fault.

Heavy stuff.

We didn't have a choice.

Did someone make you do something?

Yeah.

Who else?

He had it worse than I did.

Who was it?

I need a name.

Please. I already told you I don't know his name.

He wanted us to call him teacher.

Wait, wait.

Wait.

You got to believe me.

He kept everything tight.

I don't know his real name.

No one did.

It was just teacher.

Ask Wales.

So this teacher made you do things for him.

And he didn't tell you we would.

He knew things about us.

Bad stuff held it over our heads.

Even the others.

You mean there's others besides you and Wales?

Yeah.

He said he kept a long line of pretty boys through his bidding.

And what does this have to do with Jeannie Pickett?

He wanted her.

I think he made Wales.

lure her to some place he liked.

I've never been there.

What he called it, the farm.

Said he planted things there.

So you saw she

live
