Sgt. Grey: You ever heard of
a Night General?

No, sir.

Night General Detectives.

They respond
to any major crime scene

after normal
business hours.

They work the case
until it's assigned.

They have to be a master
in everything

because they see
everything.

Sounds impressive.
It is.

And most of them got
the attitude to go with it.

[ Knock on door ]

Nick Armstrong.

Detective Armstrong
is our new Night Detective.

Were you Night General
back at the seven-seven?

Yeah.
Last five years.

I found the nights the hardest,

so I filled 'em.

Divorced.

Detective Armstrong,
on a scale of 1 to 10,

where 1 is "patrol friendly"

and 10 is "making us guard
a cleared crime scene

in the pouring rain

'cause you get
a power trip off of it,"

where do you stand?

Sgt. Grey: Lopez.

No, it's alright, Sarge.

a direct question.

they're better

than the officers
in this room.

I'm not one of them.

Patrol is where
it all happens.

It's fast, honest,
pure, raw.

85% of all crimes are solved
at the patrol level.

What's up, buddy?

I was just talking

to Matt Christian
in the lobby.
Mm-hmm?

I told him if anything
happened to my son,

I'd be out for blood,
and he just got his look.

I mean, I-I could be
misinterpreting it.

Our job as investigators
is not to speculate.

It's to think about
what we've seen,

what we've heard,
and articulate the facts.

What are those facts?

Matt paid for Jeff
to go to rehab.

Uh, that's where
Jeff met Bruno.

Yep.

It's definitely possible

that Matt met Bruno there

when he was
visiting his son.

Maybe Matt recognized
Bruno's voice

during the home invasion?

Let's go talk to Matt.

Armstrong: Alright.
Thanks for coming by, Matt.

How's Marilyn today?

We didn't sleep.

She, uh --
She can't stop crying.

Yeah, I'm sorry.

I only have
a few follow-up questions,

and then we'll get you
back to her, okay?

Yeah.

Alright, was Jeff
on pain medication?

We found oxy in his room.

He tore his knee
last year.

Eh -- Doctor gave him
a couple of pills.

He was hooked
for a little while,

but...I got him clean.

Re-birth Malibu.
That's right.

They straightened him
right out.

Did you ever
visit him there?
Of course.

You know,
when they let me.

Did you meet a patient
named Bruno Winch?

Doesn't ring a bell.

But what's this got to do
with the home invasion?

That...wasn't about Jeff.

Well...actually, we think
he was the real target.

What are you
talking about?

Bruno Winch is one of the men
that entered your home,

bound and beat you,
and killed your son.

I have a photo of him.
Maybe you recognize him.

Oops.
Uh, that's the wrong photo.

That's what he looked
like yesterday when
we found him, so...

Is he dead?
No.

He's just in the hospital.

We're waiting for him
to wake up

so he can tell us
who did that to him.

I don't actually
have the photo with me.

Uh...let me go get it.

Uh, Matt,
why didn't you mention

that Jeff
had a drug problem?

Wasn't a problem anymore.

And I didn't want his
whole memory to be that.

Of course.
Well, that's a father's job --

protect his kids.

He was
the best part of me.

I failed him.

Matt,
I know you feel guilty.

Put him in rehab
to straighten him out,

watch him get connected
with bad people

who just pulled him
deeper down,

but that is not
your fault.

If you know anything

that can lead us
to Bruno's partner,

you need to tell me.

Just let us do our job.

Thank you.

So, what do you think?

He's out for revenge.

We get a surveillance team
on him?

If he knows who Bruno is,

it's likely he knows
who Bruno's partner is,

go after him next.
