[clock ticking]

[cell phone ringing]

What?

(woody)
all right, people.
can we back this up, please?

can we please back this up?

(reporter)
Did she do it on purpose?

The department's
Gonna issue a statement

Once we have
All the information, okay?

can we please just back this
up, all right? Come on.

Let me outta here!
Come on!

Hey, was that Cynthia montgomery
In the squad car?

Yeah.

Boy, could daddy's money
Buy her out of it this time?

Shut up, Jordan.

I'm not supposed to have
A reaction?

Look around you, garret.
It's a massacre. What happened?

she plowed her truck into
the waiting LINE: five dead.

Elaine and I can handle this.
Just go on home, all right?

You called me to help you.
Here I am.

Take your mouth someplace else.
That's an order.

(Cynthia)
hey, come on.
let me outta here!

come on! Let me outta here!

God!

What are you looking at, cow?

Friendly, isn't she?
Yeah.

She tanked up
Or just throwing a tantrum?

Both is my guess.

You think she did it
On purpose?

You got enough
To justify detaining her?

Yes, we have four witnesses
Who say it was deliberate.

Then take her to the station
And get her lawyer in.

Let me outta here!

[clock ticking]

[cell phone rings]

(woody)
Jordan. Jordan.

The paramedics came
In ten minutes.

But it was too late.

(walcott)
excuse me.

What's going on?

They think I did this to her.

Well, did you?

I don't know.

[upbeat instrumental music]

* *

"On being told
That she'd have to wait in LINE

"Just like everyone else,

"MS. Montgomery
Returned to her SUV

And proceeded to shorten the
Wait by shortening the LINE."

Flirting with libel,
Aren't they?

All right, listen up.

Elaine, you take the Harrison
And Ortiz autopsies.

bug, you take Owens and walton.

Jordan, Cynthia montgomery
And Daniel mccafferty.

Now, there are gonna be lawsuits
Flying all over this one.

We don't wanna get caught
In the middle,

So let's all be thorough.

Are the relatives--

All coming in today.

You need help, call dr. Stiles.
He's on standby.

Okay, people, long day.
Everybody look sharp.

Jordan.

Yeah.

Last night...

Look, garret, you know me.

I lead with my mouth.

Your comments got back
To the district attorney.

She all but ordered me
Not to assign you

To the Cynthia montgomery
Autopsy.

You're letting walcott
Get to you again. Lighten up.

It's easy for you to say.

Listen, I'm sorry
I snapped at you last night.

Is this the part where
I'm supposed to apologize too?

Wouldn't wanna
Ask the impossible.

No, I can do it. Just give me
A couple minutes to rehearse.

(woody)
I don't know what happened.

I asked her a question, she just
Slid off the chair. She died.

Tell me it was an o.D., Jordan.
Just tell me it was an o.D.

Look, woody, if she was blitzed
On something,

It'll show up
On the tox screen.

Come on, woody.
Really, you shouldn't be here.

Jordan, this is my butt
On the LINE.

I may have gotten
A little rough with her.

I don't know,
Maybe--maybe I did--

Woody, okay, let's not jump
To any conclusions.

My butt's on the LINE here, too,
And you gotta get outta here.

Look, I'll keep you
In the loop.

MR. Hoyt.

You're on suspension.
You have no business being here.

He was just dropping off
A bag of doughnuts.

The district attorney
Wants to know where we are.

Well, so far, the only obvious
Anomaly is right here.

Abdomen's slightly distended.

And what would that
Indicate, doctor?

Could be she bled to death
Internally,

could be a liver infection,

Could be she was pregnant,
Could be--

We can't be sure
Until we look inside.

I understand that you
And detective hoyt are close.

I wouldn't want to think
that you might be

Less than rigorous
In pursuing the truth.

Right back at you.

I really don't like her.

I'm on your side, Jordan.

But don't get cute, just cover
Your bases, all right?

Yeah.

Is this
Where you keep the bodies?

What?

I want to see
All the bodies.

Who are you?
How did you get up here?

oh, the ortizes just arrived.

Okay. Here.

Why don't you sit?
Right here, okay?

Wait. Don't move.
I'll be right back.

Hey, where you going--
Ow! Ow!

Whoa, kid,
Calm down.

The hell's going on?

Whose kid is that?
I don't know.

What are you doing here?
Where are your parents?

I got to see the bodies.

Tell me why.

It's none of your business.

Well, I disagree with you.

See, I'm kind of
The boss around here.

What's your name?

Johnny rocket.

tell me your real name

And what you're looking for,
Maybe I can help.

Find his parents
Or call children's services,

But get him off this floor.

You okay?
No.

All right.

Thanks for letting me
Do a test run.

This baby's gonna make

Slice-and-dice autopsies
Obsolete.

If it works.
There's that.

Did I sign a purchase order
For this?

Oh, well, you know,
I have friends at m.I.T.

I borrowed it from them.

What is it, and do you have
Authorization for the loan?

It's a hot new scanner.
And you don't wanna know.

It gives a 3-d model
Of the body.

Every cell, every organ,
Every bone.

Inside, outside.
It's a thing of beauty.

MR. Montgomery's
Out of the country.

They haven't been able
To reach him.

Mrs. Montgomery's on her way in
With a friend and her lawyer,

So I want you
To watch your mouth.

Of course, I'm gonna--
Starting now.

Help me turn her over,
Would you?

I just hate it
When he has to play politics.

He's just doing his job, love.

Some days he could use
The support of his staff.

And some days,
He's the only thing standing

Between you and self-immolation.

Hello, what have we here?

Wow, I've never seen anything
Like that before.

Hey, why are you limping?

Some kid broke in,
Kicked me, and ran out.

Did you find out who he was?
Wouldn't tell me anything.

So I called
Children's services.

He bolted
Before they got here.

Okay.

Right this way.

Grandma.

I suppose that I--

I should have told you
That I was coming.

No, that's okay.
It's fine.

Well...

We're not here
To make small talk.

Nigel.

I wish Howard
Were here.

the sooner she knows

What's happened,
The better it'll be.

I'm hoping to have
A definitive answer by tomorrow.

I know you'll do
Your best.

Thank you.

I'm very sorry
For your loss.

My loss is compounded
By the allegations

That are being hurled around.

that Cynthia
was high on drugs,

That her actions amounted
To deliberate homicide...

I'm sure you'll
Disprove the lies.

Bye, dear.

Call me sometime.

Did mrs. Montgomery
Just tell me

What my results
Are supposed to be?

You should have told me
You know the family.
I don't know them.

Your grandmother's that tight
With them, how could you not?

I barely know
My grandmother.

Your grandmother's family
And the montgomerys

Were friends for a long time--
Hell, generations.

I guess you don't remember
Playing there as a kid.

At the montgomery mansion.

I did?
Yeah.

Till you asked your mother
Why the montgomerys had slaves.

You were five.

Oh...

Dad, I remember
When I was little,

Grandma was a lot of fun.

We used to play dress-up.

We baked chocolate chip cookies
With little faces on them...

Then one day,
She just wasn't there.

And you and I
Never talked about it.

What happened, dad?

She got busy?

Come on.

Your grandmother didn't React
Well when your MoM--

Went crazy?

Got sick.

So she didn't just abandon me.
She dumped MoM, too.

Her own child. That's...

Hey, woody!

Hi, Max.
Can I have a beer, please?

So, get any answers yet?

I'm doing the autopsy
Tomorrow.
Great, great.

So, while detective hoyt
Hangs by a thread,

Jordan cavanaugh takes
A booze break.

That's terrific.

I'm waiting for the results
Of the tox screen.

I just wanna know
Why she died, Jordan.

I want my gun back,
I want my badge back.

I also want world peace.

You'll be fine, woody.

Just takes time
To clear these things up.

Look, I don't think
You did anything to that girl.

Tomorrow, when I do the autopsy,
I'm gonna prove it.

And nobody--
Nobody's gonna steamroll you.

Okay?

[cell phone rings]

Cavanaugh.

Nigel, uh, what's up?

Hey, calm down--

What?

What?
Are you kidding?

I tried to stop him
Till you could get here,

But he has a court order
Authorizing him

To take over the postmortem
And he wouldn't wait.
Who is he?

I didn't catch the name.

Who the hell are you?

Well, dear, I could ask you
The same question, couldn't I?

You could try.

(thaxton)
as you can see,

Judge Newton agreed
With the montgomerys' attorney

That your office has a conflict
Of interest in this case.

What conflict of interest?

And the d.A. Has backed
The family's position.

What conflict of interest?

Your relationship
With detective hoyt.

a,we do not have
A relationship,

And b,gosh, I wonder where
That oil slick in a suit

Got his information.

Dr. Thaxton, this court order
Mandates the presence

Of a medical examiner
During your postmortem.

I have a plane to catch.

I had to sandwich this in.

I'm a busy man, dr. Macy.

You see, I'm responsible for
Signing the death certificate.

She died
Of internal bleeding.

Caused by what?

A broken rib
That punctured her liver.

Something, or someone,

Exercised extreme force
To crack it.

Someone?

At the very least,
There's negligence here.

The girl should have been
Hospitalized after the accident.

A broken rib hurts.

you can't breathe
without wanting to scream.

When I saw her,
She was in zero pain.

You're welcome
To check my results.

What for?

You probably broke
The damn rib yourself.

Listen, dear.
I'm sure there's somebody here

Who can explain to you

The difference between
Pre- and postmortem fractures.

The bottom LINE is
She bled to death,

And it happened
On detective hoyt's watch.

Hey, thought you'd gone

Or I'd have snagged you
To join me for a drink.

Thanks, nigel,
But I just wanna go home.

Saying "I'm so sorry" all day
Really takes it out of you.

Creak

What was that?

Creak

I knew he was dead.

I knew he wouldn't
Just leave.

You're saying I killed her.

Is this a wisconsin thing?
Sucking guilt out of thin air?

She's dead.
I'm screwed, Jordan.

Did you know
That she was injured?

No.

Did you keep her
From being tended to?

No.

You're not making this easier.
Ems, come here!

(woody)
she wouldn't let the ems guy
touch her.

she said if he did,
she would sue him.

watch your head!

Then what should you
Have done differently?

She's still dead.

And you're still screwed.

Thank you, Jordan.
Thank you for your support.

Look, you want milk and cookies,
Call your MoM.

You wanna fight back,
I'm your man.

Okay, boss.
What's the drill?

Well, you're gonna do
What you're gonna do.

And I'm gonna go
Back downstairs

And check out
Thaxton's results.

Us against them.

Jordan...

Thank you.

Well, I kinda owe you one.

Or six.

(bug)
I ran the prints
on the John DOE.

His name
Was Gary staines.

Cops found him dead
On a bus bench four days ago,

Sent him here.

He was homeless.

Any family?
No.

But I'll get on the autopsy.

But there was no suspicion
Of foul play.

Thank you.

I have to ask--

I know, I'm sorry, garret.

I just couldn't call
Children's services.

You know what would happen.

Yeah, they'd find out
Where he belongs.

And in the meantime, they would
Put him god knows where.

Well, did you think
About his parents?

How worried they must be?

They're not worried enough
To report him missing.

I just called the police.

Unless you're
Gonna adopt him,

You need to call in
The professionals.

And please get him out of here.
This is no place for a kid.

Hey.

I guess you heard that.

I'm hungry.

Me too.

Gary didn't have anybody.

He said me and him
Could be family.

It was like having
A really cool uncle

Who knew lotsa stuff
And was real, real nice.

How'd you meet him?

Okay, Gary said
I should trust people more,

But I don't know you.

Fair enough.

You gonna call the cops?

Not unless you make me.

Tell me where you live,
I'll take you home.

I want a real funeral
For Gary.

You know, a flashy coffin,
Lotsa people,

Some guy talking about
How great Gary was.

And lots of flowers.

Johnny...

There's nobody to claim the body
Or pay for the funeral.

Then what happens?

There's a place where
Unclaimed bodies go for burial.

Is it nice? And don't treat me
Like I'm some dumb kid.

It's not great.
No, no.

Gary's gonna get
Better than that.

I'll claim the body.

Sorry, you can't.

I gotta go
To the bathroom.

johnny?

Johnny!

Johnny!

Thaxton should have
His license yanked.

Sloppy bastard.

Give me specifics.

Well, he used the bone saw
In such a way

I can't even tell which rib
He was talking about.

And I haven't seen a report,
Have you?

No.
No.

And wherever the stomach
Contents are, they're not here.

The organs weren't sectioned,

They were all just dumped
Into this bucket.

What the hell
Am I supposed to do

With this contaminated mess?

This had to be deliberate.

Don't get paranoid.

Just find a way to confirm
Thaxton's results.

Or prove
He's a lying sack of garbage.

Where's nigel?

He's around somewhere.
Why?

That hot new scanner of his.

this thing better work.

I've got no other way
Of checking that slob's results.

Have faith in the scanner, love.

Oh, by the by,

The montgomerys' little girl
Was pickled in ecstasy.

Also cocaine.

(garret)
enough to kill her?

Alas, no.
So we must continue our quest.

Hey, guys.

I'd love some good news.
The montgomerys are suing me.

Just you?
oh, no, not just me.

Me, the department,
Emergency services,

The nightclub,
All to the tune of $50 million.

I told you.

It's a thing of beauty.

Rotate her
To the right side.

See what I see?

What?
What do you see?

Make a copy
For the district attorney.

garret, this is new technology.

Untested.
Probably inadmissible.

Hello.

We're not running
A private fiefdom, Jordan.

We have to share.

I am drowning here.

I am just drowning.

Cynthia's injury
Couldn't have been caused

By the accident.

No way this rib was broken
In a head-on collision.

It was caused by constriction.

No! No!
Come here!

Come here!

[grunting]

Then I killed her.

You getting out or not?

I don't know what
This is gonna prove.

Look, maybe nothing.

It can't hurt to know
What really happened that night.

Just walk me through it.

when I first got here, there
were bodies everywhere--chaos.

Cynthia montgomery's SUV
Was right over there.

Okay, where was she?

She was back over here.

She was fighting
Bystanders back.

She was furious.
I-I had to get control of her.

So I grabbed her from behind.

Show me how.

It was like this.

And she was struggling, and
I was trying to calm her down.

[grunting]
[screaming]

I told her I was
a police officer

and that she had to calm down
and then she scratched me.

Woody, woody,
That's enough.
I'm sorry.

You okay?
You okay?

Yeah, yeah. The good news is,
I don't think I broke a rib.

So, why the fury?
What was she mad about?

Uh, I don't know.

But the bouncer said
That when she came,

She was pretty pissed off.

okay, tell me what he said.

according to him,
she'd parked right over here.

she came up to him
right there.

I need to go in for a minute.
I'm looking for somebody.

No line-jumping. Club rule.

What's your problem?
Do you know who I am?

(woody)
and she was all worked up
about something.

crying, angry,
she was looking for somebody.

I could buy this place and have
You fired, you white trash.

he wouldn't let her in.

she pulled the whole "Do you
know who I am" routine.

Obviously he didn't
Or he just didn't care.

no, so she's still
going off on him,

calling him white trash,
threatening to have his job.

and then she just stops.

she looks up at the LINE
and she gets real quiet.

sorta like she made
a decision.

(Jordan)
or found
who she was looking for.

maybe it wasn't random.

maybe she was aiming
at one specific person.

that would explain it.

the first victim fell here.

and another one.

third and fourth over here.

all in a straight LINE...

except for the last one,
over there.

Why'd she turn?

The tread marks.

She swerved
And changed direction.

So who is he?

I don't know,

But she was willing to kill
Four people to get to him.

This office can only certify
It's a constriction injury.

we're not in a position
to say what caused it.

There's news video
Of detective hoyt

Squeezing the girl
From behind.

If you deliver a scapegoat
To the montgomerys,

Do you think they'll make
A large contribution

To your next campaign?

I'm convening a grand jury.

Tell dr. Cavanaugh
To expect a subpoena.

I lost the little boy.
He ran off.

Did you find out

What his relationship
To the dead man was?

Not really.
I talked to missing persons.

They said
Given the circumstances,

They couldn't
Even take a report.

Lily, I--
Garret, we need
To find him.

If I just knew where
Gary staines spent his time.

All the kid wants is for his
Friend to have a decent burial.

Nobody to claim the body?

All right,
Get bug to help you.

Oh, thank you, garret.
I knew that you--

What? Had a heart
In here somewhere?

[laughs]

(elaine)
this is the victim
you were asking about.

Thomas Harrison, the fourth.

Oh, from the other side
Of the tracks.

He took the impact right there,
Below the right buttock.

Trying to jump out of the way.
And didn't quite make it.

Tox screen?

Ecstasy and cocaine.
What are you looking for?

I'm not even sure yet.

Real sorry woody
Got caught up in this.

He's a good guy.

Yeah.

Elaine, do you have any idea

what could've caused
this bruising?

Not yet.

Could you hit the lights?

I know it wasn't caused
by the accident.

It certainly wasn't.

Cynthia montgomery
Had exactly the same thing.

Want me to try
To PIN it down for you?

You and I will probably
Never pal around together,

But I'm not the enemy.

Thanks, elaine.

Hi.

Hey.

Oh, MR. Staines died
From a heart attack.

The kind you just
Keel over from.

He probably didn't
Even feel any pain.

Is there any way he can,
You know,

Lead us to the little boy?

I'm on it.

This here is a cyranose 320.

It may tell us
Where Gary's been lately.

How?

it's an electronic sniffer.

You program in a database
Of digitized smells

And a polymer matrix absorbs
The vapor-phase analyte

And identifies it using
A series of--
English?

Okay, according to this,
MR. Staines is...

A--a gorilla.

Piece of junk.

Don't blame the machine yet.

After all, there are gorillas
In Boston.

This explains it.

Gorillas don't like changes
In their environment.

They get scared,

And they give off a stench
That you could gag on.

Oh.

So Gary must've hung out
Somewhere around here.

Uh-huh.

Looks like the little kid
Is determined to give Gary

a proper send off,
isn't he?

I'd pay for his funeral myself,
If I could afford it.

(woody)
constriction marks?
what did this?

(Jordan)
not you.

then I didn't kill her.

So what did you find out?

Cynthia and Thomas were
At the house

All afternoon that day.
The east wing is hers.

she has her own staff
of servants

that didn't seem
to like her much.

Nothing like bad blood
To get people talking, huh?

The servants didn't hear much
Until about 6:30,

When they got into
A huge, screaming fight.

Thomas left.
Cynthia was furious.

Fight's good.
That helps.

Yeah, but it's
Not gonna be enough.

Jordan, I was kinda hoping

That maybe you could
Find your way inside.

Poke around a little bit.

Uh-huh, yeah. And how do you
Suggest that I do that?

Oh, I don't know.

You're pretty good
And breaking and entering.

I've actually seen you do it
A number of times.

And how about the fact
That your grandmother

Is their best friend?

Jordan, I spoke to nigel,
And he told me a few things.

And I'm really sorry you come
From a privileged background.

That's rough, it really is.

But, again, how hard is it
Gonna be for you to get inside?

Your predicament
Is making you sarcastic.

I like it.

Ask your grandmother to take you
To the wake with her.

I would rather
Have my eyelids pierced

That ask her for anything.

Oh, I see,
When it's about Jordan,

You're willing to blast
Your way through hell,

But when it's not about Jordan,
We're on our own.

Is that it?

Woody, it was just a joke.

Jordan, I thank you
For your help.

And just in case
It went past you,

That was sarcasm.

Yes, I am going
To Cynthia's wake tomorrow.

Why do you ask?

I'd like to go with you.

To pay your respects?

Mrs. Montgomery
Seems like a nice person.

So, you must've known
Cynthia as well.

yes.

Dad told me that I used
To play at the montgomerys'

When I was little.

Your mother and Howard's sister
Were close friends.

I don't remember any of that.

I do remember you.

Up until I was about eight.

And then you just disappeared.

You want the truth?

Yeah.

I assume that your father
Has told you

About your mother's illness.

Yeah, sort of.

well, Max and I disagreed
on how to handle it.

He didn't want my advice.

And your mother backed him up.

That's not what my dad told me.

He's still trying
To protect you.

Maybe he's just
Protecting himself.

no.
don't be harsh on him.

He separated you from me and MoM
And you're defending him.

We all did the best
That we knew how.

No regrets?

Enough regrets
To sink a battleship.

But no hard feelings
Against your father.

Look, I need to get into
The montgomerys' house

to clear detective hoyt.

The evidence to prove he didn't
Kill Cynthia is in that house.

You want me to countenance
A massive abuse of hospitality

At time like this?

We don't have to
Put it that way.

Howard and Mary are grieving
The loss of their child.

She was difficult.
She was headstrong.

but she might've grown up,
if she hadn't lost the chance.

It happens that way sometimes.

Grandma, woody hoyt
Is a good man.

He doesn't deserve this.

Please.

Jordan, I appreciate
How difficult it is

For you to ask me that.

I'm sorry.

But the answer is no.

Hey, garret.

Where've you been?

Burning bridges.

I'm gonna hope
That's a figure of speech.

Listen, the district attorney's
On the warpath.

If walcott wants to follow
The montgomerys around

With a shovel and a bucket--

Something broke
That girl's rib, Jordan.

Some force shoved it
Into her liver.

Walcott'd be negligent
If she didn't investigate.

Railroading
Is not investigating.

Elaine, any luck?

The bruises remain a mystery,
But this might interest you.

I took a microscopic slide.

And judging from
The inflammatory reaction,

I'm estimating the wound
Was four to eight hours old

At the time she died.

That's kind of a wide range.

And doesn't exonerate
Detective hoyt.

Nigel is trying
To refine the data.

I gave it to him so that
You could trust the results.

Thank you.

Um, did MR. Staines
Go out early?

Uh--oh, yeah,
Your mystery man.

Yeah, he was picked up
A bit ago.

By whom?

Ellery funeral home.

What?

I'm not making it up.

Lily, bug.

Who's paying
For Gary staine's funeral?

I have no idea.

You looked for the little boy,
Didn't you?

I think I know where he'll be
This afternoon.

Lily, this child needs more

Than the medical examiner's
Office can provide.

I know. I just...

Take a social worker
With you.

Will you give me a minute?

Of course.
Take your time.

Hey.

This is where Gary hung out.

He was nice to everybody.

He didn't ask for money.
He helped people.

He listened.

It's not right
Nobody showed up.

You can invite them
To his funeral.

Really?

Really.

Will you tell me
Where you live?

Will Gary have flowers
And everything?

My name really is johnny.
Well, Jonathan.

Gary called me johnny rocket.

He was..

He was...

Such a great...Guy.

It's okay.

I'm sorry,
But you left me no choice.

And I don't mind
Making a scene.

Well, at least you know how
To dress for the occasion.

What are you doing?

I told you,
Looking for evidence.

That's despicable.

I had no choice.

you leave me no alternative

But to get Howard and Mary
Up here.

You have no idea how sorry I am
About this.

have MR. And mrs. Montgomery
meet me at the 20th division.

And they may want to bring
An attorney.

(Jordan)
it works like
a Chinese finger trap.

The more you struggle
To get free,

The tighter it becomes.

And if you get tired
Of gasping for breath,

you can loosen it yourself.

What you're suggesting
Is preposterous.

I know this isn't pleasant
For you, MR. Montgomery.

But this man is being blamed
For something

that's not his fault.

all of this stuff
is used by people

Known as constriction
Fetishists.

having their breath cut off

Heightens the sexual experience
For them.

This is the point
Of maximum compression.

it matches the location
of the broken rib.

These items that you think
Will destroy our case,

You stole them.

no court will consider them
admissible evidence.

You can argue that position
At a motion hearing.

A judge will probably
Agree with you.

But the second
You open your mouth,

All of this
Goes on public record.

Is that what you really want?

Howard, make it go away.

Hoyt, you can pick up
Your badge and gun

From the watch commander.

Thank you, sir.

Are we on the same page?

I don't want to see this
In the press.

No, none of this leaves
This room, sir.

Dr. Cavanaugh?

I'm actually known
For my ability

To keep my mouth shut.

Jordan.

So it's all over,
Isn't it?

Yeah...It's over.

[door closes]

(garret)
So he's a rich kid.

You should see where he lives.

You could fit the statehouse
In the entrance hall.

So big his parents don't notice
He's missing half the time?

His MoM and dad
Are never home.

I don't mean
They're at work.

I mean they're
In Iceland or Tibet.

So what happens now?

Children's services
Is taking care of it.

Just what you didn't want.
Sorry.

You kidding me?

They're not gonna put a kid
That rich in a group home.

Well, you did
A good thing, lily.

Hmm.

Gary staines made him feel
Like he mattered.

Like somebody cared.

In the end, that's all
Any of us really wants, right?

Yeah.

Oh, I talked to
The funeral home today.

They got a cashier's check
And instructions.

They have no idea
Who's paying for the funeral.

That's odd.

Yeah. I thought maybe
It was somebody here.

I suppose it's possible.

I thought maybe it was you.

Did you?

(walcott on TV)
the investigation has
completely exonerated

detective hoyt.

The final determination is that
Cynthia montgomery's death

was a tragic accident.

Turn it off.

Refill?

Grandma says that it was you
Who pushed her away.

Your mother's illness didn't
Come from nowhere, Jordan.

she and your grandmother
had problems.

Well, that's pretty normal.

nothing's normal
when you're mentally ill.

I was trying to protect you.

From my grandma?

From the other side
Of the family.

They didn't do your mother
Much good.

The thing is, though, dad,
That should've been my choice.

It's your choice now.
Then, it was mine.

[door opens]

[snaps fingers]
What's up?

So?

The review board has cleared me
Of all charges,

Thanks very much to you,
Jordan.

You saved my butt.

You know, I never thought
It would happen

But I think
I cleared my debt.

I really hate feeling
Beholden, don't you?

Admit it, you were
Worried about me.

Come on, say it.

I was afraid that you would just
Move back to wisconsin

And become a cheese farmer.

Yeah, yeah. Fields
Of waving camembert.

No one fun to talk to.

Say it.

I'd have missed you.

You bring a certain charm
To the occasion.

You're a good guy, woody--

You should be ashamed
Of yourself, Max.

I know what you're
About to tell me.

You're about to tell me
To back off,

That Jordan is
A handful of trouble,

That I should just
Keep on moving without stopping.

Well, I was actually
Gonna tell you

I'm glad things worked out
The way they did.

[turns on music]

but you might wanna listen

to the little voice
inside your head.
