All language subtitles for JAG S05E24 Body Talk

When you're alone, when you're alone

Harm.

Hey.

What brings you to town? I guess
reserved duty puts you in civilian

Personal business.

Oh, well, you want to talk about it over
lunch? I have time. I'll make a call.

Is there a problem?

You know my father murdered my mother.

Yeah, he's doing a life sentence.

In Leavenworth.

Leavenworth? He was a Navy captain.

I just found out a certain JAG attorney
convinced an appellate court to grant

him a new trial.

Teresa, I didn't know that Captain
Chaddock was your father.

I found my mother's body. I'm all over
the transcripts. But you listed his

daughter as a victim. You don't even
have the same last name as your father.

That was ten years ago. Why are you
doing this?

Your father's defense attorney was 26
years old. It was his first murder

He conducted ineffective cross
-examination. He failed to interview key

witnesses. It doesn't matter, Harm. He
was guilty then, and he's guilty now.

You weren't there, Teresa.

Well, neither were you.

I've written her so many times in the
past 10 years, I've lost count.

She never wrote back. She never called.

I'm dead to her.

Not anymore, Captain.

Teresa's aware of the retrial, sir.

She's asked me to drop the cape.

She thinks I'm guilty.

Has she convinced you?

Sir, I'm convinced that you didn't get a
fair trial the first time.

Well, I can't blame her.

Letting the stress of my command eat me
alive.

Trading my family for a bottle.

And my two biggest regrets.

Abusing my wife and forcing Teresa to
hate me.

Captain, your daughter's a forensic
pathologist.

She's worked on a couple of cases with
me.

We have become quite close, sir.

What are you trying to say to me? That
you two are... Captain, we're just

friends.

But...

Oh. Worried about a conflict of
interest. Still aren't you, sir? No.

You're a principled man.

If anything, you'd overcompensate.

You've given me hope, Commander.

Don't jump ship on me now.

He's playing you.

I've known this man for 33 years.

Well, you've known him for 23 years,
actually. You haven't seen him in the

10.

Have you considered paying him a visit?

No. Why not?

Look, there was a time that I loved my
father.

I won't let him trade on that.

I understand how you feel.

And do you understand how he feels?

He needs my support.

I'm the prosecution's chief witness.

I'm going to defend him, Teresa.

What?

I can't just walk away. I brought him
this far.

What about me?

I've been there for you.

I'm sorry.

Irene!

Oh, come in.

What a pleasant surprise. Nice to see
you. Please, have a seat.

You look great.

Oh, thank you, Admiral.

Are you all right?

Oh, God, this isn't easy for me.

But at my father's funeral, you did say
that if I ever needed any help, I

shouldn't hesitate to ask.

And I meant it. Your father said the
same thing to me when I transferred into

the JAG Corps.

And did you ever take him up on it, sir?

More times than I care to count.

What can I do for you?

There's an empty plot next to my mom and
dad in Arlington, and I'd like to

reserve it for myself.

Okay.

Have you talked to anyone in the
Arlington administration?

Oh, yes, sir.

They told me that sites can't be
reserved.

And since my family plot is already
filled, my only options are

an assigned site or cremation.

And you thought I could talk to someone?

Oh, this is presumptuous of me, sir. I'm
sorry.

No, no, no. Let me think. Let me think.

Um... I hope this doesn't sound
insensitive on my part, but Irene, you

a young woman. Why deal with this now?
Why not concentrate on the life ahead of

you?

That would be three months, sir.

I've been diagnosed with pancreatic
cancer.

Hey, Mac, haven't seen you all morning.

Reading. I heard your retrial involves
Commander Coulter's father.

Yeah, one of those moments where two
lives intersect, there's not a traffic

light in sight.

How's she taking it?

About as you'd expect.

Bud's been assigned second chair.

Good, I could use the help.

You really think you can turn this one
around?

Yeah, it's all circumstantial, Meg.

Yeah, but the circumstances lay out.

How would you know?

Just finished scanning the trial
summary.

Why?

I've been assigned prosecution.

Welcome to Arlington National Cemetery.
We are open 365 days of the year. A menu

of options follows.

Press 1 to schedule an internment or
inurnment. Press 2 for graveside

Press 3.

Press 1 to schedule an inurnment. Press

Intermittent processing.

Please provide the following
information. Speak slowly and clearly.

What are the last four digits of your
social security number?

9852.

What is your height?

Six foot three inches.

How deep would you like your plot?

What?

When... will you be expecting to need
it?

Good God.

That's it there.

42.

Uh, Captain French, in the transcripts
of the first trial, you testified that

you heard an argument coming from the
Chaddock quarters the day that Ellen

Chaddock died?

Yes, we were billeted across the way.

Now, I realize it was ten years ago,
sir, but...

Can you recall anything other than the
argument, anything that might have

suggested a struggle?

A week earlier, but not on that day.

Captain, was this typical behavior for
the Chaddocks?

Actually, Captain Chaddock did most of
the shouting.

In fact, that was the only time I ever
heard Ellen raise her voice, except when

she yelled at her son -in -law.

Something happened with the son -in
-law, sir?

Yes. I saw them screaming at each other
right in front of her door there.

You remember when that was, Captain?
That was the day before.

The murder?

Yes. I wasn't the only one who witnessed
it either.

A repairman from Public Works was in
their house at the time.

Captain, why didn't you reveal this
before, sir?

I did.

I informed the Naval Investigative
Service when they first interviewed me.

They didn't seem interested.

Why do you want to talk to my ex
-husband? Did he call you? For the first

in nine years.

You know, he was seen arguing with your
mother the day before she was murdered.

You're not going to try to pin this on
Rory.

Look, Commander, I'm just digging a
little deeper. It's something your

first attorney didn't do.

No, you're not digging. You're building.

You're really going to try to make
something out of this.

The NIS sat on it the first time around,
ma 'am. We assume it was because they

figured they had their suspect and
didn't want to clutter the field.

Look, it was nothing.

I told my mother that I might be moving.
Rory might be taking a job out of town.

She was upset. She thought she'd never
see me again.

He came over to borrow the lawnmower,
and she just laid into him. Commander.

you know why he left me?

My grief was too much for him.

This is why your theory doesn't work. He
could never have done it. He was weak.

Rory doesn't confront his problems. He
runs from them.

Word of warning, Commander. I would not
divulge unsolicited information to the

defense. Oh, that's very clever.

Refer to yourself in the third person so
you don't have to make it personal.

This isn't personal.

It's professional.

The two are not mutually exclusive.

Well, in this case, they have to be.

Harm, if you value our friendship,
you'll drop Rory as a suspect.

Get his address, bud.

Her mother was upset because of this job
I wanted to take.

What was it?

The assistant head of security for a
computer company in California.

Big step up for me.

And what did she say to you?

That there was no way she was going to
let me take her daughter that far away.

Well, how did she plan to stop you, Mr.
Coulter?

She said she had ways.

Did you believe her?

Not really.

Then why didn't you take the job?

They changed their mind, offered it to
someone else.

You have a criminal record?

I stole a car when I was 18.

Did you put that on the application?

What is this?

I just think it would be of interest to
somebody in a position of hiring a

member of a security team, that's all. I
made up for my mistakes by working

hard. I had three letters of
recommendation.

Did Mrs. Chaddock know about the record?

I guess.

Maybe that's what she meant by she had
ways to stop you. She was threatening to

call the company and tell them.

You did call the company and tell them,
didn't you, Mr. Coulter? That's why they

withdrew the job offer.

I don't know what happened.

Mr. Coulter, where were you on the day
that your mother -in -law was murdered?

Am I a suspect here?

Just answer the question, Mr. Coulter.

I think I need a lawyer.

This stinks.

Well, that shook him up, huh?

He's a credible suspect, sir.

Motive, no alibi.

And no jacket.

Mr. Coulter. What?

Hey, if he wants it, he'll come back for
it.

Sir, your seat is here.

You have an age today.

It's your mother's genes.

She always looked younger than she was.

Sir.

Is this it?

You're never going to speak to me again?

I'll say something.

Even if it's to damn me to hell.

One.

Captain Shattuck had a documented
history of drunkenness.

Two,

when he was drinking, he threatened his
wife with violence.

Three, Ellen Chaddock kicked him out of
their house one week prior to her death

for physically assaulting her.

Four, Captain Chaddock returned, he and
Ellen fought, and an eyewitness saw him

leaving his house one hour before she
was found dead of massive head trauma.

In short, Captain Thomas Chaddock was a
troubled, out -of -control officer.

who murdered his wife in a drunken rage.

The government's case is based purely on
circumstantial evidence. There is no

proof that Captain Chaddock had been
drinking on the day of Ellen Chaddock's

murder. There's no eyewitness to a
murder, not even to an assault.

It's all inference.

There is no case.

Captain Chaddock is not the man
responsible for his wife's murder.

There was a general ruckus.

Him yelling, her yelling back.

I heard nothing for a minute or two, and
then I saw the captain exit the house.

At approximately what time, sir?

It was about 1545.

What condition was he in, captain?

He was drunk.

Did he say anything at this point, sir?

Yes. He yelled, you happy now?

And then he got in his car and drove
off.

And what did you assume he meant by
that?

Objection called for speculation.

What's the thing?

I'll rephrase.

Sir, what was the tone of Captain
Chaddock's voice at the time he yelled

remark? Angry.

Self -satisfied.

Like he'd made his point, sir? Yes.

Thank you. You're a witness.

Sir, how close were you to Captain
Chaddock when he left his house?

I was about 50 feet or so.

Could you smell his breath?

Of course not.

Then how did you know he was drunk,
Captain?

Well, he usually was.

Move to strike, Your Honor.

The members will ignore the witness's
last comment.

Captain, you stated that Captain
Chaddock seemed angry and self

he yelled, You're happy now.

That's right.

Now, sir, couldn't he have been
indicating in a petulant way that in

with his wife's wishes he would stop
bothering her and be out of her life?

I don't know.

I suppose.

What did you do after you saw Captain
Chaddock drive off, sir?

Well, I was building a train set in the
den.

I went inside to work on it. So you saw
and heard nothing from this point on?

That's correct.

Kevin, did you witness an argument the
day before between Ellen Chaddock and

son -in -law, Rory Coulter?

Yes. Do you know what that argument was
about, sir?

Well, I was pulling up in my car at the
time. I didn't hear what was being said,

but they were upset at each other.

Now, how would you describe your son -in
-law's attitude, sir?

Angry.

Hostile? Very.

No further questions, John.

The House and Senate are deadlocked over
eligibility criteria at Arlington.

Until they can agree, everything's up in
the air.

And in the meantime?

The person can file a special written
request after the death of the person in

question. Well, the individual in this
case is the person in question.

Well, the family can do it.

Her family, namely the mother and
father, are both dead.

They are the ones next to whom she'd
like to be buried.

I'm afraid those are the rules.

They don't work.

Apparently not in this case. Apparently
not in any case where the individual has

to file a request posthumously.

Admiral, I'm failing to see where I
can... Where's the site?

What's the name?

Admiral Leslie Charlton.

Charlton.

Okay.

You want to come with me?

Admiral Charlton lies there.

Well, it's the one next to it, the one
in red. That's the one she wants.

Oh, that site's occupied.

No, it's not.

She's been there. There's no marker.

I can only tell you what the chart says.

You can tell me the truth or I'll walk
out there with a spade and check it out

myself.

It's been reserved.

Well, isn't there a no reservation
policy?

Yes, there is.

So, who's Lucky Stiff?

Admiral, I'm not in a position to reveal
that.

Exactly what position will make you
change your mind?

Lieutenant Commander Coulter, are you
related to the victim and the accused?

The victim was my mother.

The accused is my father.

Would you tell us about your mother's
relationship with your father?

My father started drinking when I was in
junior high.

At first, he would just come home and
crash.

But by the time I turned 18, he was
berating my mother on a daily basis.

The day that I graduated from college,
he spent the whole day insulting her.

And that night, she told him to shut up.

And he pointed his finger in her face
and said that if she ever said that

he'd kill her.

What happened the week before your
mother died?

She called me to tell me that my father
had assaulted her and she'd kicked him

out of the house.

Were you afraid for her?

Yes, I went to see her every day after
that to check up.

Is that why you were there the day you
found her body?

Yes. Thank you.

No more questions.

Lieutenant Commander Coulter, you were
married to Rory Coulter at the time of

your mother's death?

Yes. And prior to that, did you tell her
that Mr. Coulter had accepted a job in

California and that you'd be leaving
town?

Commander?

Yes.

How would you characterize the
relationship between your mother and

at that time?

They didn't get along.

Thank you.

Mac, we need to talk.

Not about desperate theories.

It's the real thing, then.

It's misdirection, gentlemen.

May I remind you, Colonel, there was an
unidentified hair found on Alan

Shattuck's body.

The operative word being unidentified.

But the hair was a direct DNA match to a
hair that we found on Rory Coulter's

jacket.

Drop the charges, Colonel. They won't
stick.

Rory Coulter's hair on Ellen Shattuck's
body proves nothing.

If we assume that Ellen Shattuck had a
shower that morning, it indicates that

Coulter was at the house that day. Only
if he'd never been there before.

He was their son -in -law.

There was a bathroom near the bedroom.
I'm sure he used it more than once.

The hair could have been there for days,
weeks on a cushion or a towel.

Ma 'am, you have to admit, we have as
much, if not more, circumstantial

to support our theory as you do.

If you're that confident.

Prove it in court.

Commander, Lieutenant, I have that
information you requested on that

Petty Officer Ramon Arguente was
assigned to Chaddock residence on August

1989.

Problem is, he was discharged in 1994.

I do, however, have a fax on the work
order from that day.

We need the man, not the paper, Gunny.

I have three addresses since then, sir.
Last known, Fairbanks, Alaska, 1998.

And the landlord said he headed north.

Let me see that.

Yes, sir.

Work order to replace a propane heating
unit.

I suppose there's a note in there about
him witnessing an argument to you.

Excuse me, Admiral. I wasn't able to get
General Piper's phone number, sir, but

this is his address.

Thank you, Turner.

Civilian on deck.

Hi, hi, come in, come in.

Dr. Sidney Walden, this is my yeoman,
Petty Officer Jason Tyner.

We've talked, ma 'am.

If there's anything you want, coffee,
water, soft drinks, just let me know.

I'm fine for now.

Why don't I get all three, ma 'am, in
case you change your mind?

Sir?

You look luminous.

And you look vigorous.

Are you free for lunch?

Bigger question.

Dinner, Saturday night.

New restaurant in Fairfax.

Tuscan cuisine.

Now, I know we officially don't have a
date, but... We do now.

Adels, did we... Well, excuse me, sir,
this can wait. No, no, no.

Uh, Dr.

Sidney Walden, uh, this is Commander
Harmon Rabb.

I've heard so much about you, Commander.

You must be the... doctor.

Hasn't that been established?

Yeah, I'm sorry, ma 'am, just a little
preoccupied.

It's a pleasure to meet you, and, uh,
well, I trust this won't be the last

Well, let's make sure of that.

I understand you're seeing someone.

Maybe the four of us can socialize at
some point. Oh, I'll look forward to

Sure.

Mr. Coulter, I'm Lieutenant Colonel
Sarah McKenzie.

I'm prosecuting Captain Chaddock's
murder trial.

I can't talk to you.

But just a few minutes.

I have an attorney now. These are his
rules.

It's in both our interests. Your story
helps me counter the defense theory.

You're a prosecutor. You can file
charges on me.

It's a military trial, Mr. Coulter.
What's to stop a civilian trial? It's in

the papers.

The district attorney's office would
have to get involved. I haven't heard a

peep from him. Sorry.

Will you talk to someone else

Take

as much

time as you need

Here

It's all right. Okay.

How are you?

Did you kill my mother?

No, Teresa.

Then why are you acting like you did?

I'm just trying to protect myself.
Things are getting out of hand.

I remember that job meant a lot to you.
Enough to kill someone?

I know you didn't like her, Rory.
Because she didn't like me.

All I know is once she was gone, so were
you.

Hey, who's been talking to you? Your dad
killed your mother. You know it. I know

it. And with God's help, the members of
that jury will know it.

When did you find God?

Right after I found out I was a suspect.

You look tired.

So do you.

Sounds familiar, huh?

I didn't know a party was going on.
Please tell the general. Admiral.

Welcome. What, you didn't bring a wife?

I'm not married.

That's right.

Someone I've never met.

Bad timing, General. Maybe I should
contact you. No, no, no.

Not until you wish me a happy retirement
and I get you a glass of 18 -year -old

scotch.

Two fingers of Locklear.

General.

I turn my back for one second.

Marjorie. Yes.

Meet Admiral A .J. Chickman.

Nice to meet you, Admiral.

The general promised me a dance, but
apparently he's forgotten.

I'm just greeting my guests, Marjorie.

Say, would it be an imposition if I
asked you to prepare a plate of food for

Admiral?

It'll cost.

I'll be right back.

She's been on the hunt ever since her
husband died.

What can I do for you, Admiral?

Well, General, this is incredibly
awkward, but the daughter of an old

mine has a terminal illness.

Both he and his wife are buried at
Arlington, and she's requested the plot

to her parents.

Understandable. That plot has been
promised to you.

Well, I'm old enough to predate the no
-reservation policy, Admiral.

As a view of the sunset, you know.

About seemed like a good idea at the
time.

Frankly, I can't think of anything less
interesting right now than dying.

Well, General, I don't want you to think
I'm applying pressure to you in any

way.

Of course I do.

I'll relinquish my rights to the
superintendent.

Thank you, sir. If you do me one favor.

By all means.

Come back.

This is about Commander Coulter. It's
about Rory Coulter. Well, I don't want

discuss him. He's your suspect, not
mine. He's everybody's suspect now,

His lawyer just called.

He skipped town.

I know Rory, Colonel.

Running away is just part of his
character.

It's not that he's guilty.

He just doesn't know how to handle the
pressure.

I have to be honest with you, Commander.

It's not looking good.

Well, then we just have to find more
evidence against my father.

Could I see the autopsy report? Maybe I
can find something.

Teresa, what will you do if he's
acquitted?

I can't even think about that. Think
about it.

Because if you can't forgive him, you
will continue to hate him. And that can

a very painful way to live.

And just what would you know about that,
Colonel?

My father was an abusive alcoholic.

Well, then you more than anyone should
understand exactly where I'm coming

So what do we have, bud?

Rory Coulter finds out the morning after
the argument with his mother -in -law

that the job offer has been withdrawn.

Suspecting that it's she that called the
company and told them about his arrest

record, he decides to confront her.

He goes over there, he sees the
captain's car, waits for him to leave,

encounters an edgy Ellen Chaddock, and
they argue.

Let's go inside. What evidence do we
have in the bedroom?

A lunch attic on the bed, the record
skipping on the turntable, door and

closed, and the dead fish in the tank.

So Rory could have closed the window to
muffle the sound of the assault.

The record might have been scratched in
the scaffold, or it could have been

scratched before.

It's the dead fish.

I don't know what to do with that one.

And neither did the original
investigators, sir.

And they just wrote it off as neglect.

What if...

Rory Coulter was so mad at Ellen
Shattuck that he murdered her and killed

fish out of spite.

But... Did you find something?

Alice says my mother died of massive
brain trauma due to a fracture of the

parietal bone caused by a blunt object.

And?

Well, those determinations are out of
line.

And the brain swelling indicated here...

Couldn't have been sufficient to cause
her death.

We need to order an exhumation.

I won't allow it.

Teresa, your mother didn't die of a
skull fracture. Doesn't that make you at

least curious?

You're jumping to conclusions. All I
said was that there was a discrepancy

between the coroner's findings and the
official cause of death.

Well, the only way to investigate it is
to exhume her body.

I'm sorry.

Ma 'am, if you won't let us exhume, why
are you here?

Because she has to be.

The commander can be considered an
expert witness, which makes her opinion

potentially exculpatory.

Teresa, just think about it for a while.
I mean, you're denying us something

that you as a forensic pathologist have
asked people, what, 50, 100 times.

All we're looking for is the truth, ma
'am.

Here's the truth, Lieutenant.

My mother lies in peace, something she
rarely experienced in her life.

No one can touch her now, and I intend
to keep it that way.

Enter.

Oh, Lieutenant, please have a seat.

I'm glad you're here. I was going to
call you.

Admiral, I just came from the doctor's
office.

I jumped the gun, sir.

After we talked, I went, I got a second
opinion, and my first biopsy was

misread. I don't have a tumor. I'm not
going to die. I mean, well, just not

anytime soon anyway. I'm so excited I
can barely breathe.

Well, that's wonderful.

Yeah, and I'm sorry I made you go
through this drama with me, sir.

And I know you must have just twisted
yourself into knots trying to figure out

how to help me with my request.

And even if you could have pulled it
off, I mean, I would have felt really

terrible holding on to a plot that long.

You were right, Admiral.

It is much better to concentrate on
where I am now than where I'm going to

up.

Well... Irene,

you have a good life.

I intend to, sir.

What kind of a drunk were you, Captain?

An angry one.

You ever direct this anger at your wife,
sir?

Quite often.

Why?

Because she wasn't perfect.

That's what I expected from people.

That's what I asked of my men.

You think that this was fair, sir?

No. It was twisted.

My wife deserved better from me.

I was not up.

to being her husband.

I was weak and full of self -loathing.

Did you ever consider leaving her, sir?
No.

Because then I would have no one to
blame for my unhappiness.

Did your wife ever try to leave you,
Captain?

Ellen would never go out on her own. She
was too dependent.

Though she did throw me out of the house
once.

Tell us about that, sir.

It was the week before she died.

We were arguing and...

I lost control and pushed her.

When she fell, she whacked her head on
the bedpost.

I had threatened her often, but it was
the first time I'd hurt her.

It shook me up.

How did you react?

I took a room in a motel.

Did you return a week later, Captain?
Yes.

And we argued again.

I threw stuff around, but she stood fast
and stared me down.

I was serious, but I knew it was over.

All I could do was stomp out of there.

Captain, why did you yell? Are you happy
now?

I was trying to make the point that she
was going to be alone from now on, and

it was going to be hard for her.

Sir, she'd just been alone for a week.

She called me at the motel every day.

Captain, what did you do when you found
out that your wife was dead?

I cried.

Maybe that sounds like a pathetic plea
for sympathy, but it's the truth.

Commander, you can examine the body.

Do you believe him?

Let's just take this one step at a time.

What do you think?

It's very nice.

It's available.

Is this something you're going to be
needing in the next 12 hours?

I'm sorry. I'm being morbid. The
restaurant was closed.

I was curious.

You know, I don't know what the general
was thinking about the sunsets in the

other direction.

This tree, now this tree is a problem.

It's deciduous. It's going to lose all
its leaves in the fall. It's going to be

a damn mess. And this grass, I'm not
crazy about it. What is it?

Well, it's a fescue.

Let's go eat.

Okay, the radiologist noted callous
formation around the area of Ellen

Shattuck's skull fracture. Meaning that
the fracture had begun to heal before

she died. And this signifies?

That she died as a result of other
circumstances.

And those circumstances are?

What's hanging us up.

It's getting late, and we've gone over
this a dozen times.

Seemingly unrelated clues.

Closed window, skipping record, dead
fish.

And don't forget about the repairman.

Yeah, the unfinished repair in the
heating unit.

Where's that work order, bud?

Is there a blood sample from Ellen
Shattuck's original autopsy?

Yes, sir.

We need to order a new test, bud.

Commander. You testified that when you
entered your mother's bedroom, the door

and the window were closed and that it
was hot and stifling.

Is this because the heat was on?

Yes, I turned off the thermostat.

Do you know what the temperature outside
at that time was?

No, I don't.

78 degrees.

Defense Exhibit 7, Your Honor.

Verification from the U .S. Weather
Service.

The police report notes that your
mother's fish were also dead. Did you

notice of this?

Yes, briefly.

Defense Exhibit H, Your Honor, a copy of
a work order to replace a propane

heating unit at the Chaddock household
Friday, August 25th, 1989, the day

Alan Chaddock's death.

Is this an excursion, Conklin?

I'm about to make my point, sir.

I'm waiting.

Well, sir, according to handwritten
instructions on the work order, the

repairman, Petty Officer Ramon Arguente,
states that he's run out of metal vent

pipe. He then instructs Alan Chaddock
not to turn the heat on until he

the repair because it would circulate
carbon monoxide throughout the house.

Commander, how would we know if an
individual had succumbed to carbon

poisoning?

Other than evidence at the scene, the
best way is blood analysis.

And when would one test for this?

When indicated.

But on this day, Commander, all
indications pointed to a skull fracture

cause of death, didn't they?

Yes. And the carbon monoxide in the room
would have dissipated when you opened

the door and the window, is that
correct?

Yes.

Sense Exhibit 9, Your Honor.

A recent visual spectroscopy of a blood
sample collected during Alan Chaddock's

original autopsy, indicating traces of
carbon monoxide, which he reversibly

binds with hemoglobin.

Any hemoglobin.

Even that of fish.

It's admittedly difficult assessing what
was on Alan Chaddock's mind on the day

of her death, but I ask you to consider
the circumstances.

Her son -in -law was trying to move out
of state with her only daughter.

She'd just suffered a skull fracture.

And she was alone.

Really alone.

For the first time in 25 years.

You happy now?

When you're alone Who

cares for starlit

The magic

moonlight dies Captain Thomas.

Chaddock on the charge and specification
of murder, this court finds you not

guilty. This court marks the
adjournment.

Thank you, Commander.

Congratulations. Thank you very, very
much.

Congratulations.

What do you and the commander manage to
do?

The Navy sent me to medical school.

I thought I was going to be a doctor,
but I found myself attracted to crime

scenes.

My whole life has been defined by what
happened to my mother.

Is that how you want it to remain?

I want to remember her as a person, not
a victim.

You okay?

I'm sorry.

You don't have to apologize to me.

You knew he was innocent.

That was more of an instinct, I think.

That's why you wouldn't give him up.

Come by my office when you're done here.

I am done.

Think about it.

You forgave your father?

Yeah.

Was it hard?

It took me a while.

What did you say to him?

He was in a coma by the time I was
ready.

Hi.
