1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:01,480
Previously on R.J. Decker

2
00:00:01,480 --> 00:00:07,860
I'm Emi Ochoa. Lucas is my step-brother, and that's the man who almost killed him.

3
00:00:08,180 --> 00:00:11,860
Can't go a hundred feet without someone asking me for an interview about my murdered father.

4
00:00:12,060 --> 00:00:15,500
The task force that would try to find your dad's killer. Have you heard anything from them?

5
00:00:15,520 --> 00:00:19,320
My father and the DA were close. Whoever killed him will not get away with it.

6
00:00:19,800 --> 00:00:24,200
I know I told you I needed some time, but I think what I really needed was a friend.

7
00:00:24,960 --> 00:00:27,960
The state police have a file on Emi Ochoa.

8
00:00:28,100 --> 00:00:28,380
Is it Ochoa?

9
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:30,980
I'm gonna need you to give me your hands.

10
00:00:32,220 --> 00:00:35,100
You've got her dead to rights. She killed her father.

11
00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:45,780
If you could find out, I would really appreciate it.

12
00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:47,860
Okay. Now, you're arrested, Emi?

13
00:01:47,900 --> 00:01:49,860
No, not me. Not my guys. State police.

14
00:01:50,100 --> 00:01:50,460
Yeah, but it's-

15
00:01:50,460 --> 00:01:51,220
Part of the task force.

16
00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:53,080
The charge is bold. You didn't kill her father.

17
00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:53,480
I know.

18
00:01:53,780 --> 00:01:55,180
Yeah, but we were with her that night.

19
00:01:55,240 --> 00:02:00,260
I said, I know. I was just talking to my captain, giving him the same earful you're giving me.

20
00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:03,160
But the situation's worse than you think. They have evidence.

21
00:02:03,320 --> 00:02:05,380
What kind of evidence could they have if she didn't do it?

22
00:02:05,380 --> 00:02:09,400
Task force executed no-knock search on her condo two days ago.

23
00:02:09,660 --> 00:02:14,660
I didn't know until just now. They found a 9mm Beretta compact hidden in a wall vent.

24
00:02:15,420 --> 00:02:18,000
Ballistics from the gun matched the slugs they pulled from the victim.

25
00:02:18,620 --> 00:02:20,500
It's the gun that killed Victor Ochoa.

26
00:02:21,420 --> 00:02:32,560
Me? Richard, you both know ADA CODO.

27
00:02:33,120 --> 00:02:34,520
We assume you want to discuss a plea?

28
00:02:34,820 --> 00:02:37,620
You assume wrong. Then why did you ask to talk?

29
00:02:39,420 --> 00:02:43,640
So that you and I could talk, Janice. This whole thing is ridiculous.

30
00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:47,940
How long have we known each other?

31
00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:50,080
A long time.

32
00:02:50,380 --> 00:02:51,300
A long time.

33
00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:54,580
My dad backed your first campaign when I was still in college.

34
00:02:55,380 --> 00:02:57,100
You're the one who convinced me to go to law school.

35
00:02:57,560 --> 00:03:00,320
You can't possibly believe I did this.

36
00:03:00,820 --> 00:03:04,420
I wouldn't have, but the facts are hard to ignore.

37
00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:06,920
What facts? The gun the police found?

38
00:03:07,780 --> 00:03:09,080
Somebody planted it there.

39
00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:13,280
I've been staying at my brother's place the last two months. My place has been empty.

40
00:03:13,480 --> 00:03:17,320
Something the police are clearly aware of given their surveillance of Ms. Ochoa.

41
00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:19,300
We think it's obvious she's being framed.

42
00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:20,500
Not obvious to us.

43
00:03:20,920 --> 00:03:24,120
With her father gone, your client inherits his real estate empire.

44
00:03:24,300 --> 00:03:26,540
I didn't want his real estate empire.

45
00:03:26,980 --> 00:03:29,260
Even if I had, I didn't have to kill him to get it.

46
00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:31,060
He'd always planned for me to take over.

47
00:03:31,200 --> 00:03:34,820
Your father's guard saw the two of you fighting outside his house the day he was murdered.

48
00:03:34,820 --> 00:03:36,880
From their statements, it sounded pretty heated.

49
00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:39,560
You know we had our disagreements. I'm not denying that.

50
00:03:39,620 --> 00:03:41,460
You're also forgetting my client has an alibi.

51
00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:44,360
She was at a party with half a dozen witnesses,

52
00:03:44,440 --> 00:03:46,040
including one of your own homicide detectives.

53
00:03:46,340 --> 00:03:49,060
By my count, that party also included two ex-cons,

54
00:03:49,180 --> 00:03:51,160
so maybe don't lean on the company she kept.

55
00:03:51,380 --> 00:03:54,500
Besides, turns out that alibi is not so strong.

56
00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:55,700
What are you talking about?

57
00:03:55,860 --> 00:03:59,400
The pool where the state senator was found was heated.

58
00:03:59,700 --> 00:04:01,400
Kept his body at a steady temperature,

59
00:04:01,580 --> 00:04:04,120
meaning the M.E. had no way to narrow down time of death,

60
00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:07,880
meaning your client could have killed him, party or no party.

61
00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:11,200
Emmy, I know your father had a temper.

62
00:04:11,940 --> 00:04:14,240
I know the rumors he had criminal connections.

63
00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:17,840
I can imagine all sorts of scenarios that would change things.

64
00:04:18,040 --> 00:04:20,400
If you didn't have a choice that night, if you felt threatened,

65
00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:22,740
I can knock this down to a lesser charge,

66
00:04:22,740 --> 00:04:25,720
but I can only help you if you talk to me.

67
00:04:31,020 --> 00:04:32,000
I didn't do it.

68
00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:36,280
I would never have done it.

69
00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:42,420
Then I'll see you both at the arraignment.

70
00:04:47,270 --> 00:04:48,590
Yeah, no, I get it.

71
00:04:48,670 --> 00:04:49,850
I know it's a big ask.

72
00:04:52,370 --> 00:04:54,110
She's calling friends in an apartment,

73
00:04:54,370 --> 00:04:56,270
seeing if anyone else slips the case file on Emmy.

74
00:04:56,750 --> 00:04:58,570
And the task force was circling other suspects.

75
00:04:58,750 --> 00:05:00,870
Maybe there's leads they dropped, someone else I can look into.

76
00:05:01,050 --> 00:05:01,570
You're hearing me out.

77
00:05:01,750 --> 00:05:02,390
So far, Norlock.

78
00:05:03,050 --> 00:05:04,010
I'll see you tomorrow.

79
00:05:07,010 --> 00:05:07,870
I'm being shut out.

80
00:05:08,390 --> 00:05:09,410
I work with jellyfish.

81
00:05:09,430 --> 00:05:10,590
It's not a spine in the bunch.

82
00:05:10,790 --> 00:05:12,590
To be fair, you are a witness in the case.

83
00:05:12,590 --> 00:05:14,690
How was the press conference?

84
00:05:15,030 --> 00:05:16,030
Did you learn anything new?

85
00:05:16,510 --> 00:05:18,390
Bail was set at a number Emmy could meet.

86
00:05:18,610 --> 00:05:20,290
She's being processed and released now.

87
00:05:20,910 --> 00:05:23,390
Other than that, nothing good.

88
00:05:24,690 --> 00:05:27,370
Apparently, the no-knock warrant that led the state police to the gun

89
00:05:27,370 --> 00:05:29,070
was the result of an anonymous tip.

90
00:05:29,570 --> 00:05:31,470
Whoever made that call was lying their face off.

91
00:05:31,910 --> 00:05:35,270
That night at the party, no way did Emmy just show up for murdering her own father.

92
00:05:35,270 --> 00:05:37,630
And she wasn't heading out to murder him either.

93
00:05:37,990 --> 00:05:39,590
I think I've been a cop long enough to know.

94
00:05:39,710 --> 00:05:42,050
Do you think there's any way we could identify the tipster?

95
00:05:42,050 --> 00:05:45,190
The odds are it's the same person who planted the gun, right?

96
00:05:45,630 --> 00:05:47,130
I mean, do you know anybody in the state police?

97
00:05:48,150 --> 00:05:50,670
I can dig up some digits, but don't get your hopes up.

98
00:05:50,890 --> 00:05:52,290
My own lunch buddies aren't talking.

99
00:05:52,770 --> 00:05:54,030
Stady's aren't going to be much warmer.

100
00:06:00,660 --> 00:06:01,240
You heard of it.

101
00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:01,940
No, it's not really.

102
00:06:01,960 --> 00:06:02,940
It's going right to voicemail.

103
00:06:03,380 --> 00:06:04,040
I'll just leave a message.

104
00:06:04,380 --> 00:06:05,580
No, Wish, I'm here.

105
00:06:05,740 --> 00:06:06,160
Can you hear me?

106
00:06:06,280 --> 00:06:07,220
I guess I missed you.

107
00:06:08,020 --> 00:06:10,800
Anyway, there's a fella at the bar asking for you.

108
00:06:10,960 --> 00:06:11,460
Friendly sort.

109
00:06:11,900 --> 00:06:12,780
Asked me to give you a ring.

110
00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:15,100
Well, what you gonna do?

111
00:06:15,520 --> 00:06:17,940
I'll just tell him he should try you another time.

112
00:06:18,420 --> 00:06:18,800
All right.

113
00:06:18,980 --> 00:06:19,540
Talk soon, buddy.

114
00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:30,240
And he used the term friendly sort.

115
00:06:30,980 --> 00:06:34,020
Back at Apalachee was our code for certain guys to avoid.

116
00:06:34,820 --> 00:06:37,820
Like sometimes you'd meet someone and you could just tell they killed people.

117
00:06:38,720 --> 00:06:40,800
Like it didn't matter how they acted or what they'd say.

118
00:06:41,740 --> 00:06:42,800
It was in their eyes.

119
00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:45,380
You think he's trying to tell you someone like that is at the bar?

120
00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:46,340
Not just at the bar.

121
00:06:46,380 --> 00:06:49,220
He's looking for me, which was warning me to stay away.

122
00:06:50,140 --> 00:06:52,680
So naturally, your first response is to head right over.

123
00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:55,360
Well, if it's a problem with my name on it, I can't just leave it to Wish.

124
00:06:57,860 --> 00:06:59,880
Will you at least lie to me that you'll be careful?

125
00:07:06,660 --> 00:07:07,280
I even bother.

126
00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:07,700
What?

127
00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:09,620
Why, do you have some kind of death wish or something?

128
00:07:09,700 --> 00:07:10,580
You're just not Lisa.

129
00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:13,640
Well, maybe I worry about you just as much as you worry about me.

130
00:07:13,740 --> 00:07:14,360
You ever think about that?

131
00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:15,440
Lord, help us, Bob.

132
00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:16,320
Okay.

133
00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:19,160
The guy you called about, the friendly sort, still here?

134
00:07:20,980 --> 00:07:21,520
All right.

135
00:07:21,520 --> 00:07:23,880
Should you get a sense that he's going to put holes in you?

136
00:07:23,960 --> 00:07:26,140
Do you need a favor and kindly step outside?

137
00:07:26,820 --> 00:07:26,920
Okay.

138
00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:28,780
Yeah, I just mopped.

139
00:07:33,970 --> 00:07:34,650
I'm RJ.

140
00:07:35,050 --> 00:07:35,850
Heard you were looking for me.

141
00:07:36,010 --> 00:07:36,990
Ah, Mr. Decker.

142
00:07:37,970 --> 00:07:39,150
My name is Augustin.

143
00:07:40,170 --> 00:07:41,910
Didn't heed your friend's warning, I see.

144
00:07:43,790 --> 00:07:46,610
Yo, you could tell I was on that call.

145
00:07:47,870 --> 00:07:50,270
And yet you don't seem very surprised I showed up.

146
00:07:50,510 --> 00:07:51,910
I've looked into you, Mr. Decker.

147
00:07:52,370 --> 00:07:53,730
I have a sense of your character.

148
00:07:54,390 --> 00:07:56,310
It's why I'd like to hire you.

149
00:07:57,810 --> 00:07:58,570
I'm so sorry.

150
00:07:58,690 --> 00:07:59,950
Mr. Augustin, was it?

151
00:08:00,110 --> 00:08:02,410
I appreciate the interest I do, but as it turns out,

152
00:08:02,870 --> 00:08:04,930
I'm not taking on any new clients right now.

153
00:08:04,990 --> 00:08:06,350
My dance card, it's kind of full.

154
00:08:06,630 --> 00:08:07,210
I'm aware.

155
00:08:08,030 --> 00:08:09,130
At least I believe I am.

156
00:08:10,350 --> 00:08:14,150
A friend of yours, Amelia Ochoa, has been arrested for murder.

157
00:08:14,870 --> 00:08:16,650
You have strong feelings for this woman.

158
00:08:17,170 --> 00:08:18,350
He believes she's been framed.

159
00:08:18,990 --> 00:08:21,290
And so, unless I've misjudged you,

160
00:08:21,850 --> 00:08:24,050
you're going to try very hard to prove it.

161
00:08:24,230 --> 00:08:25,450
And you know all this, Al?

162
00:08:26,190 --> 00:08:28,690
And as I said, I've had a chance to observe you.

163
00:08:29,590 --> 00:08:31,110
I also suspect you're not being paid.

164
00:08:31,750 --> 00:08:34,290
Even if Mr. Ochoa offered, you would not accept.

165
00:08:34,790 --> 00:08:36,270
So perhaps you'll take my money instead.

166
00:08:37,610 --> 00:08:39,570
Sorry, I'm going to need you to back up for a second.

167
00:08:40,050 --> 00:08:43,030
You want to pay me to do a job you already know I'm doing for free?

168
00:08:43,110 --> 00:08:43,510
I do.

169
00:08:43,730 --> 00:08:44,130
Because?

170
00:08:45,290 --> 00:08:47,770
Because, while you believe Ms. Ochoa is being framed,

171
00:08:48,410 --> 00:08:50,370
I myself am certain of it.

172
00:08:50,630 --> 00:08:52,610
And my employees would very much like to know

173
00:08:52,610 --> 00:08:54,590
who her father's real killer is.

174
00:08:56,210 --> 00:08:57,550
Would $50,000 be enough?

175
00:09:06,410 --> 00:09:09,290
And give you any sense of who these employers of his are?

176
00:09:09,530 --> 00:09:12,290
No, but I think we can venture a gas, a gang, a cartel.

177
00:09:12,810 --> 00:09:16,090
And savory types that Victor was done business with before he died?

178
00:09:16,510 --> 00:09:16,770
Yeah.

179
00:09:17,410 --> 00:09:18,810
You remember my cue, my slim Jim?

180
00:09:19,310 --> 00:09:20,490
Toolbox in the back of your Jeep?

181
00:09:20,710 --> 00:09:21,230
Yeah, exactly.

182
00:09:21,350 --> 00:09:22,630
I saw some keys on the table.

183
00:09:22,730 --> 00:09:23,610
It's a rent to Ford Escape.

184
00:09:23,770 --> 00:09:24,610
I assume it's in the lot.

185
00:09:24,850 --> 00:09:25,210
All right.

186
00:09:25,830 --> 00:09:26,770
I'll break into his car.

187
00:09:26,910 --> 00:09:27,570
What am I looking for?

188
00:09:27,630 --> 00:09:27,990
Anything.

189
00:09:28,530 --> 00:09:29,750
Where I stay, I know what he works for.

190
00:09:29,750 --> 00:09:30,630
What do you have for breakfast?

191
00:09:31,570 --> 00:09:34,150
This guy obviously knows more about Victor's dirty laundry than we do.

192
00:09:34,290 --> 00:09:35,350
That makes him a new lead.

193
00:09:35,530 --> 00:09:36,830
You keep him busy till I get back.

194
00:09:37,310 --> 00:09:37,850
That's the plan.

195
00:09:38,070 --> 00:09:38,290
All right.

196
00:09:42,140 --> 00:09:43,320
There you go.

197
00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:47,320
Your friend thinks I'm dangerous.

198
00:09:48,760 --> 00:09:49,640
Yeah, is he wrong?

199
00:09:50,860 --> 00:09:52,580
You haven't said much about your friends.

200
00:09:53,100 --> 00:09:55,700
You mind if I ask what their interest in the Ochoa's is?

201
00:09:56,060 --> 00:09:57,480
I'm here as their representative.

202
00:09:57,620 --> 00:09:58,440
That's all you need to know.

203
00:09:58,840 --> 00:09:59,200
Okay.

204
00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:00,700
Okay.

205
00:10:00,700 --> 00:10:01,880
One different question.

206
00:10:02,420 --> 00:10:07,200
I know why I'm sure Emmy Ochoa is being framed, but what makes you so sure?

207
00:10:07,960 --> 00:10:10,160
I arrived in Fort Lauderdale three weeks ago.

208
00:10:10,820 --> 00:10:13,720
The Victor Ochoa case had been moving slowly.

209
00:10:14,660 --> 00:10:16,000
My employers were growing restless.

210
00:10:17,240 --> 00:10:20,860
I searched Miss Ochoa's residence well before the police did.

211
00:10:21,740 --> 00:10:24,200
The gun was not in the vent where they found it when I looked.

212
00:10:24,580 --> 00:10:25,620
So you were in Emmy's house?

213
00:10:27,740 --> 00:10:28,380
Mine too.

214
00:10:29,180 --> 00:10:29,880
Why would I?

215
00:10:30,700 --> 00:10:32,740
Are you also suspect in Victor Ochoa's murder?

216
00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:33,960
Can't say I didn't have a motive.

217
00:10:35,540 --> 00:10:40,900
If I searched the homes of everyone with motive to kill Victor Ochoa, I'd be a busy man indeed.

218
00:10:41,300 --> 00:10:41,840
That's true.

219
00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:46,240
Which reminds me I have other places to be this evening.

220
00:10:49,500 --> 00:10:53,360
For the $50,000 I mentioned, I have one request.

221
00:10:54,040 --> 00:10:58,520
That you share everything that you discover with me before taking it to the police.

222
00:10:59,200 --> 00:11:06,160
Sorry, no, not yet.

223
00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:09,320
Is the money not enough?

224
00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:10,520
No, it's not that.

225
00:11:11,880 --> 00:11:14,060
I'm still working through all the things you're not telling me.

226
00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:17,420
It means no secret Victor was in bed with organized criminals.

227
00:11:18,180 --> 00:11:20,140
Makes me think you're a fixer for some bad people.

228
00:11:20,240 --> 00:11:22,420
Some bad people had a lot of money invested in Victor.

229
00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:25,300
Can't be cheap owning a state senator after all.

230
00:11:27,960 --> 00:11:31,180
Whoever killed him, the cost of an asset, you're supposed to find this person.

231
00:11:31,180 --> 00:11:33,400
Once you do, it's your job to serve justice.

232
00:11:34,100 --> 00:11:35,920
A version of justice, anyway.

233
00:11:37,680 --> 00:11:38,960
How am I doing so far?

234
00:11:41,680 --> 00:11:46,180
As I said, I'd be a client and my money is good.

235
00:11:46,820 --> 00:11:48,880
All these other matters are immaterial.

236
00:11:52,610 --> 00:11:55,270
I guess I have to decide if they're immaterial to me.

237
00:11:56,610 --> 00:11:57,970
Can I think about it?

238
00:11:58,910 --> 00:11:59,510
Of course.

239
00:12:00,570 --> 00:12:01,610
Just don't think too long.

240
00:12:03,470 --> 00:12:04,770
I'll be in touch.

241
00:12:14,920 --> 00:12:15,580
How'd it go?

242
00:12:18,180 --> 00:12:19,160
Broke my slingshot.

243
00:12:20,260 --> 00:12:20,520
No.

244
00:12:21,820 --> 00:12:23,540
Car did when it refused to unlock.

245
00:12:24,580 --> 00:12:26,060
Bruised my ego too, if I'm being honest.

246
00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:29,400
However, I did notice something when I looked through the window.

247
00:12:29,720 --> 00:12:32,100
A tag hanging off the mirror and there was an emblem on it.

248
00:12:32,240 --> 00:12:36,700
Like a rabbit's head facing one direction and a flamingo facing the other.

249
00:12:41,260 --> 00:12:41,840
This what you saw?

250
00:12:42,580 --> 00:12:43,280
That's it.

251
00:12:43,580 --> 00:12:45,020
It's a resort, Lucky Bird Inn.

252
00:12:45,380 --> 00:12:46,960
I've tailed a few cheating spouses there.

253
00:12:47,340 --> 00:12:49,160
The tag tells the valet you're a guest.

254
00:12:49,320 --> 00:12:52,120
Well, I'd say that's worth the price of a Slim Jim.

255
00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:19,620
Hey.

256
00:14:20,140 --> 00:14:20,440
Hey.

257
00:14:26,050 --> 00:14:27,130
How you holding up?

258
00:14:27,630 --> 00:14:29,970
Uh, not great actually.

259
00:14:30,350 --> 00:14:30,630
Yeah.

260
00:14:32,170 --> 00:14:34,830
I take it the media is all over Lucas's place now too?

261
00:14:35,710 --> 00:14:38,390
Like flies on you know what?

262
00:14:38,610 --> 00:14:38,810
Yeah.

263
00:14:39,910 --> 00:14:44,770
I get you checking in under a false name but Elizabeth Borden as in Lizzie Borden?

264
00:14:45,290 --> 00:14:48,250
I mean you really think famous parent killer is the best way to go for an alias?

265
00:14:48,530 --> 00:14:50,110
Gotta keep a sense of humor somehow.

266
00:14:51,650 --> 00:14:52,890
Also Lizzie was acquitted.

267
00:14:53,550 --> 00:14:53,830
It's true.

268
00:14:58,380 --> 00:15:00,120
I've been thinking of you a lot today.

269
00:15:00,900 --> 00:15:01,060
Oh.

270
00:15:01,860 --> 00:15:02,280
Yeah?

271
00:15:02,840 --> 00:15:04,580
How you've been where I am.

272
00:15:07,460 --> 00:15:09,040
Someone you don't even know.

273
00:15:10,340 --> 00:15:11,080
Telling a lie.

274
00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:14,160
I could get you sent to prison.

275
00:15:18,470 --> 00:15:20,330
It's a pretty terrible place to be.

276
00:15:21,230 --> 00:15:21,910
It is.

277
00:15:24,530 --> 00:15:25,810
I know you want to help me.

278
00:15:27,490 --> 00:15:28,870
I appreciate it.

279
00:15:29,850 --> 00:15:31,510
I just don't know if I deserve it.

280
00:15:32,590 --> 00:15:34,070
Why don't you let me be the judge of that?

281
00:15:34,150 --> 00:15:34,490
Star J.

282
00:15:34,530 --> 00:15:37,050
Hey the help's coming whether you like it or not from all of us.

283
00:15:38,170 --> 00:15:39,350
But we're gonna need your help too.

284
00:15:40,950 --> 00:15:41,910
Starting with this.

285
00:15:42,490 --> 00:15:47,420
What do you think? You've seen this guy before?

286
00:15:48,320 --> 00:15:50,320
Maybe he and your dad met at some point or?

287
00:15:50,520 --> 00:15:51,700
Not that I recall, no.

288
00:15:52,780 --> 00:15:54,040
You said he tried to hire you?

289
00:15:54,300 --> 00:15:55,580
Yeah he did. He did.

290
00:15:55,720 --> 00:15:57,200
But there's no way I'm taking the job.

291
00:15:58,060 --> 00:16:00,420
I just said I'd think about it to Sam's good side.

292
00:16:02,620 --> 00:16:03,620
What's with the armadillo?

293
00:16:04,200 --> 00:16:04,700
I don't know.

294
00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:06,320
I fell out of place with this guy.

295
00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:08,740
The name on the tag was World of Hope.

296
00:16:09,300 --> 00:16:11,800
It turns out it's a charity that sends toys to child refugees.

297
00:16:12,460 --> 00:16:14,780
I checked their address against Augustine's receipts.

298
00:16:15,240 --> 00:16:17,880
A few days ago they pumped gas about a half mile away from their headquarters.

299
00:16:18,360 --> 00:16:19,600
I was thinking he paid them a visit.

300
00:16:20,060 --> 00:16:20,920
Don't ask me why.

301
00:16:21,920 --> 00:16:23,140
Could be he's into plushies.

302
00:16:23,700 --> 00:16:24,200
I don't know.

303
00:16:24,940 --> 00:16:25,940
I've heard the name before.

304
00:16:26,800 --> 00:16:27,280
World of Hope.

305
00:16:27,760 --> 00:16:33,160
I remember my dad saying once that the people behind it were contributors.

306
00:16:33,480 --> 00:16:35,460
To what? His pocket or his campaign?

307
00:16:36,300 --> 00:16:38,580
Why would a charity need to bribe a state senator?

308
00:16:39,140 --> 00:16:41,780
I don't know but it's the first connection I've been able to make

309
00:16:41,780 --> 00:16:45,120
between this guy and your dad where they play the movies in the morning.

310
00:16:48,020 --> 00:16:52,620
If they were bribing my father, do you really think they'll just come out and tell you?

311
00:16:53,240 --> 00:16:54,080
Who could say no to me?

312
00:17:11,720 --> 00:17:13,960
Do your friends at the station know you're helping me out?

313
00:17:14,400 --> 00:17:15,100
What's it to you?

314
00:17:16,240 --> 00:17:19,640
Well, I'm sure it was a pretty loaded name even before I got arrested.

315
00:17:19,800 --> 00:17:21,720
I'm guessing they wouldn't appreciate you pitching in.

316
00:17:21,940 --> 00:17:23,680
So when do I give a crap about what anyone thinks?

317
00:17:24,360 --> 00:17:26,660
Besides, I like me just fine when I'm right about everything.

318
00:17:27,780 --> 00:17:28,380
Hello?

319
00:17:29,980 --> 00:17:30,500
FLPD?

320
00:17:36,810 --> 00:17:37,370
Hello?

321
00:17:39,470 --> 00:17:40,070
Samsine.

322
00:17:58,050 --> 00:18:00,470
This was going to Port of Prince Haiti.

323
00:18:04,430 --> 00:18:05,970
Oh, stuff in this crate isn't so cute.

324
00:18:06,470 --> 00:18:07,550
These are AR-15s.

325
00:18:11,110 --> 00:18:13,410
And this one's full of rocket launchers.

326
00:18:14,050 --> 00:18:15,210
Are you here to show your police?

327
00:18:16,850 --> 00:18:29,250
No one has to get...

328
00:18:29,250 --> 00:18:30,590
Call from mama.

329
00:18:32,790 --> 00:18:33,450
Of all the dang...

330
00:18:33,450 --> 00:18:34,990
Call from mama.

331
00:18:35,970 --> 00:18:37,670
I don't know, maybe just call her back.

332
00:18:37,870 --> 00:18:39,490
You're not sending my mama to voicemail.

333
00:18:39,710 --> 00:18:40,110
Really?

334
00:18:51,220 --> 00:18:51,980
Your truck?

335
00:18:53,040 --> 00:18:54,500
That thing holds one round, right?

336
00:18:54,960 --> 00:18:56,060
Because mine holds 16.

337
00:19:02,430 --> 00:19:03,910
You're in a heap of trouble, Doyle.

338
00:19:04,510 --> 00:19:07,010
Firing a rocket launcher at the police is taken kind of seriously.

339
00:19:07,310 --> 00:19:11,050
Plus the feds are going to have lots of questions about you smuggling weapons out of the country

340
00:19:11,050 --> 00:19:12,370
in crates that say toys.

341
00:19:12,870 --> 00:19:14,090
I'm going to save you all some time.

342
00:19:14,250 --> 00:19:16,090
I got one word for you.

343
00:19:17,390 --> 00:19:18,190
Protective custody.

344
00:19:19,350 --> 00:19:22,270
Yeah, that's two words, but please go ahead.

345
00:19:22,930 --> 00:19:24,510
The folks that paid for those guns?

346
00:19:24,790 --> 00:19:30,010
They already sent the guy to bust my fingers just because I hung on to a few keepsakes.

347
00:19:30,390 --> 00:19:30,770
Keepsakes?

348
00:19:30,790 --> 00:19:32,430
As in you were skimming weapons off the shipment?

349
00:19:32,650 --> 00:19:35,590
I don't even want to think about what they'll do to me for losing the whole bunch.

350
00:19:35,770 --> 00:19:36,350
Let me ask you something.

351
00:19:37,970 --> 00:19:40,670
Guy that did that to your hand, what was his name?

352
00:19:41,050 --> 00:19:43,330
I just know him as Mr. Augustine.

353
00:19:43,790 --> 00:19:44,850
Never got a first name.

354
00:19:45,090 --> 00:19:46,970
That's the guy who was telling you my guy tried to hire me.

355
00:19:47,570 --> 00:19:50,550
And you're worried that the group he works for, they'd be able to get to you in prison?

356
00:19:50,770 --> 00:19:51,470
Like that.

357
00:19:51,790 --> 00:19:55,090
Only the DA's office can offer you a deal, but I can tee it up for you.

358
00:19:55,190 --> 00:19:56,430
Assuming you tell us what we want to know.

359
00:19:56,490 --> 00:19:56,850
Anything.

360
00:19:57,310 --> 00:19:58,570
Who are those weapons going to?

361
00:19:59,010 --> 00:20:02,150
A group called Non Laselles in Haiti.

362
00:20:02,990 --> 00:20:04,430
Augustine works for them too.

363
00:20:05,210 --> 00:20:09,970
I don't really follow politics, but some kind of civil war going on down there?

364
00:20:09,970 --> 00:20:12,110
The Haitian government's basically in collapse.

365
00:20:12,390 --> 00:20:14,450
Armed gangs are fighting for control of the country.

366
00:20:14,570 --> 00:20:16,230
I assume Non Laselles is one of those gangs?

367
00:20:17,010 --> 00:20:17,490
The charity.

368
00:20:18,350 --> 00:20:19,850
It's basically a front for shipping guns, right?

369
00:20:20,530 --> 00:20:23,450
A couple of crates that go out are filled with toys, so they pass inspection.

370
00:20:24,130 --> 00:20:26,590
Next couple of crates that don't have to pass inspection

371
00:20:26,590 --> 00:20:28,950
are filled with assault rifles and RPGs.

372
00:20:29,490 --> 00:20:30,810
Where did all those weapons come from?

373
00:20:30,970 --> 00:20:32,590
That part, you got nothing on me.

374
00:20:33,210 --> 00:20:34,570
I bought them all perfectly leaked.

375
00:20:34,690 --> 00:20:37,250
So you can turn around and sell them to people that can't buy them legal.

376
00:20:37,430 --> 00:20:38,670
They're pretty sure that part's a crime.

377
00:20:39,970 --> 00:20:40,850
Victor Ochoa.

378
00:20:41,350 --> 00:20:41,910
You heard him.

379
00:20:42,490 --> 00:20:43,510
Florida State Senator.

380
00:20:43,630 --> 00:20:45,090
Like I said, I don't follow politics.

381
00:20:45,390 --> 00:20:45,970
Well, he was murdered.

382
00:20:46,950 --> 00:20:48,450
We're trying to figure out who did it.

383
00:20:51,090 --> 00:20:52,470
I'd know who did it.

384
00:20:52,690 --> 00:20:55,010
Cause if there's someone you want me to say killed him,

385
00:20:55,510 --> 00:20:56,590
just tell me the name.

386
00:20:57,090 --> 00:20:58,310
I'll say whatever you want.

387
00:20:58,910 --> 00:21:00,650
Not really how we do things, Doyle, but...

388
00:21:37,660 --> 00:21:38,540
This is Eka.

389
00:21:39,380 --> 00:21:40,080
Perfect, Ivy.

390
00:21:41,360 --> 00:21:41,580
What?

391
00:21:42,300 --> 00:21:42,840
Shrimp creole.

392
00:21:43,400 --> 00:21:44,440
A family recipe.

393
00:21:45,380 --> 00:21:46,760
I assume you prefer it less spicy.

394
00:21:48,640 --> 00:21:49,920
That's thoughtful.

395
00:21:52,160 --> 00:21:56,880
If I was here to kill you, you'd already know it.

396
00:21:57,680 --> 00:21:59,640
The knife is used to drop the abyss.

397
00:22:01,980 --> 00:22:03,840
Please, sit.

398
00:22:06,220 --> 00:22:07,440
How can I refuse?

399
00:22:12,260 --> 00:22:19,650
Done an impressive job.

400
00:22:21,210 --> 00:22:22,090
Investigating me.

401
00:22:23,850 --> 00:22:26,330
I'm guessing you're here because you heard about Doyle Coven's arrest?

402
00:22:27,010 --> 00:22:29,010
As a result of you looking into me.

403
00:22:29,350 --> 00:22:29,670
Obviously.

404
00:22:32,550 --> 00:22:33,190
Don't worry.

405
00:22:33,650 --> 00:22:34,290
I'm not angry.

406
00:22:35,430 --> 00:22:36,750
You did what I would have done.

407
00:22:38,270 --> 00:22:38,650
Feeling you?

408
00:22:39,270 --> 00:22:39,810
No, thank you.

409
00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:46,400
You're not convinced.

410
00:22:47,560 --> 00:22:49,920
Well, I saw what you did to Doyle and that was just for skimming.

411
00:22:49,920 --> 00:22:53,660
You're worried that for costing us an entire shipment of weapons,

412
00:22:54,360 --> 00:22:55,920
I'd do more than break fingers.

413
00:22:57,720 --> 00:22:58,840
Doyle stole from us.

414
00:22:59,400 --> 00:23:00,260
You have not.

415
00:23:01,880 --> 00:23:05,860
However, you are supposed to have been looking for Mr. Ochoa's killer.

416
00:23:06,280 --> 00:23:06,800
I have been.

417
00:23:07,600 --> 00:23:09,680
And maybe I'm closer now that I understand a few things.

418
00:23:10,800 --> 00:23:14,280
Your employer, Namla Sal, they had Victor in their pocket, didn't they?

419
00:23:15,340 --> 00:23:17,860
They needed smuggled American weapons to fight their war

420
00:23:17,860 --> 00:23:21,480
and a well-greased state senator could help keep those weapons coming.

421
00:23:22,240 --> 00:23:24,780
Say a bill was introduced to tighten up the ports,

422
00:23:24,940 --> 00:23:27,600
Victor would be in a position to make sure that bill failed.

423
00:23:29,220 --> 00:23:31,400
Now you see why my employers need answers.

424
00:23:32,940 --> 00:23:35,140
Suppose a rival group was behind the murder

425
00:23:35,140 --> 00:23:37,700
as part of a plan to cut off our arms supply.

426
00:23:38,720 --> 00:23:41,740
If that were the case, we'd need to respond.

427
00:23:42,460 --> 00:23:43,580
And what if that wasn't the case?

428
00:23:44,860 --> 00:23:46,380
What if the murder was unrelated?

429
00:23:46,380 --> 00:23:52,480
Do I still break fingers or do I do worse?

430
00:23:53,500 --> 00:23:54,620
This would be at my discretion.

431
00:23:59,500 --> 00:24:01,800
You won't be accepting my offer, will you?

432
00:24:02,460 --> 00:24:04,920
I can't just hand something over to you no matter what they did.

433
00:24:06,620 --> 00:24:09,200
To be honest, I'm more insulted you're not eating.

434
00:24:10,020 --> 00:24:20,930
Oh, it's actually very good.

435
00:24:26,240 --> 00:24:27,440
Can I ask you a favor?

436
00:24:27,440 --> 00:24:30,300
You decline my request and then ask one of your own.

437
00:24:30,560 --> 00:24:33,120
I still need to find the real killer and that helps us both.

438
00:24:35,940 --> 00:24:38,300
I have a feeling you have someone inside the investigation.

439
00:24:39,300 --> 00:24:41,020
A task force member, maybe?

440
00:24:42,340 --> 00:24:44,500
You knew the gun was hidden inside a vent.

441
00:24:44,840 --> 00:24:45,680
That wasn't made public.

442
00:24:46,500 --> 00:24:47,820
Now, I'm not asking for your source.

443
00:24:48,740 --> 00:24:52,640
But if I'm right, it sure would help a lot to take a look at that case file.

444
00:24:54,680 --> 00:24:55,700
I'll see what I can do.

445
00:24:55,700 --> 00:24:56,480
Okay.

446
00:25:01,510 --> 00:25:02,490
I have to make a call.

447
00:25:05,490 --> 00:25:07,110
You just make yourself at home.

448
00:25:07,870 --> 00:25:09,150
Oh, before I forget, I have to ask.

449
00:25:09,810 --> 00:25:10,830
What's with the armadillo?

450
00:25:12,610 --> 00:25:14,710
I present for my daughter.

451
00:25:15,370 --> 00:25:15,890
She's five.

452
00:25:16,670 --> 00:25:19,050
So you break a few fingers, you stop by the gift shop.

453
00:25:19,690 --> 00:25:20,610
Just another business trip.

454
00:25:27,440 --> 00:25:28,580
Hey, I got your text.

455
00:25:28,920 --> 00:25:30,360
I just heard you were shot at today.

456
00:25:31,020 --> 00:25:31,720
Technically, yes.

457
00:25:31,980 --> 00:25:33,380
With a rocket launcher.

458
00:25:34,380 --> 00:25:35,220
Well, it missed.

459
00:25:40,080 --> 00:25:40,800
I've been thinking.

460
00:25:43,060 --> 00:25:44,720
I've been thinking I can't do this anymore.

461
00:25:45,980 --> 00:25:47,100
You can't do what anymore?

462
00:25:47,420 --> 00:25:48,000
Any of it.

463
00:25:48,940 --> 00:25:51,600
That's why I asked you to call me back so I could tell you I made a decision.

464
00:25:51,920 --> 00:25:52,140
Okay.

465
00:25:53,800 --> 00:25:55,440
I'm going to call my lawyer in the morning.

466
00:25:56,420 --> 00:25:58,620
I'm going to tell him to take the deal I was offered.

467
00:26:06,070 --> 00:26:07,270
I told you not to come.

468
00:26:07,410 --> 00:26:08,890
Well, you said some crazy things.

469
00:26:08,990 --> 00:26:10,670
I'm here to make sure you don't do crazy things.

470
00:26:10,670 --> 00:26:12,590
Taking the deal I was offered isn't crazy.

471
00:26:12,910 --> 00:26:13,390
Actually, it is.

472
00:26:13,490 --> 00:26:13,970
You know why?

473
00:26:14,090 --> 00:26:14,810
Because you're innocent.

474
00:26:15,090 --> 00:26:15,450
Am I?

475
00:26:15,590 --> 00:26:16,790
Yes, you are.

476
00:26:18,590 --> 00:26:21,750
I may not have killed my father, but he is dead because of me.

477
00:26:23,670 --> 00:26:26,690
I mean, after he threatened to have you sent back to prison, that was it.

478
00:26:27,250 --> 00:26:29,990
I decided he was the one who needed to go to prison.

479
00:26:31,230 --> 00:26:36,010
What I didn't understand, what I failed to understand is that he couldn't go to prison.

480
00:26:36,090 --> 00:26:39,270
Because if he did, it would make someone else vulnerable.

481
00:26:40,410 --> 00:26:41,130
Someone dangerous.

482
00:26:41,650 --> 00:26:43,770
Someone with secrets they knew he would spill.

483
00:26:45,010 --> 00:26:46,070
I never saw it coming.

484
00:26:46,210 --> 00:26:46,970
I mean, it's not...

485
00:26:46,970 --> 00:26:47,410
I should have.

486
00:26:47,470 --> 00:26:49,410
I should have known how much danger it was putting him in.

487
00:26:49,450 --> 00:26:50,430
Victor made his own bed.

488
00:26:50,610 --> 00:26:51,510
You know he did.

489
00:26:51,630 --> 00:26:52,250
What about you?

490
00:26:52,870 --> 00:26:54,490
What's going to happen to you that I don't see coming?

491
00:26:54,490 --> 00:26:56,010
Nothing is going to happen to us.

492
00:26:56,010 --> 00:26:57,630
You were almost killed today.

493
00:27:02,940 --> 00:27:08,360
If you had died, or Mel, that would have been on me too.

494
00:27:08,460 --> 00:27:11,380
I would have had to live with it for the rest of my life.

495
00:27:15,980 --> 00:27:22,460
The case they have against me, it may be a frame, but it's a good one.

496
00:27:23,600 --> 00:27:24,480
I fight it.

497
00:27:24,620 --> 00:27:26,240
I could go to prison for the rest of my life.

498
00:27:26,400 --> 00:27:27,160
I take the deal.

499
00:27:28,120 --> 00:27:30,440
I make things easier on everyone, including myself.

500
00:27:30,940 --> 00:27:33,520
Okay, what about the person that actually did kill your father?

501
00:27:33,760 --> 00:27:34,580
They're still out there.

502
00:27:34,800 --> 00:27:36,440
You do this, they go free.

503
00:27:36,600 --> 00:27:37,180
They walk.

504
00:27:39,080 --> 00:27:40,420
I'm making progress here.

505
00:27:40,540 --> 00:27:40,940
I am.

506
00:27:41,360 --> 00:27:42,740
Something is going to shake loose.

507
00:27:42,840 --> 00:27:43,260
It is.

508
00:27:43,260 --> 00:27:44,760
Just give me one more day.

509
00:27:45,340 --> 00:27:46,340
Don't call your lawyer tomorrow.

510
00:28:01,160 --> 00:28:03,340
All hours after we dropped oil, colon, and holding,

511
00:28:03,520 --> 00:28:05,600
he has to speak to the leads on the Victor Ochoa case.

512
00:28:06,200 --> 00:28:08,500
I have to pull in a huge favor to get a copy of this.

513
00:28:09,000 --> 00:28:09,500
Yes, sir.

514
00:28:10,220 --> 00:28:11,780
Beretta PX4, compact carry.

515
00:28:11,980 --> 00:28:13,580
Small profile, reduced recoil.

516
00:28:13,980 --> 00:28:15,360
Looks just like the one I sold her.

517
00:28:15,660 --> 00:28:17,080
Her being Amelia Ochoa.

518
00:28:17,420 --> 00:28:18,540
Yeah, that was her name.

519
00:28:19,100 --> 00:28:21,640
Mentioned her daddy was some big shot politician.

520
00:28:22,280 --> 00:28:23,080
Victor Ochoa.

521
00:28:23,120 --> 00:28:25,340
When we talked to this guy, he'd never even heard of Victor.

522
00:28:25,520 --> 00:28:26,160
It gets worse.

523
00:28:26,420 --> 00:28:27,680
What did this woman look like?

524
00:28:27,780 --> 00:28:28,240
Pretty.

525
00:28:28,740 --> 00:28:29,320
Bugger hat.

526
00:28:30,160 --> 00:28:31,940
Long brown hair, big brown eyes.

527
00:28:32,060 --> 00:28:33,200
We're going to show you some photos.

528
00:28:33,600 --> 00:28:35,800
If you see the woman you sold the gun to, let us know.

529
00:28:37,440 --> 00:28:38,860
That's her, right there.

530
00:28:39,320 --> 00:28:41,300
Lady like that, she leaves an impression.

531
00:28:41,540 --> 00:28:42,660
When did you sell her the gun?

532
00:28:42,920 --> 00:28:44,320
I've never even seen this guy before.

533
00:28:44,360 --> 00:28:44,800
A couple years ago.

534
00:28:44,900 --> 00:28:46,240
We certainly never bought a gun from him.

535
00:28:46,360 --> 00:28:46,600
We know.

536
00:28:46,640 --> 00:28:48,780
She said there'd been some break-ins in her building.

537
00:28:49,520 --> 00:28:50,140
Made her nervous.

538
00:28:50,520 --> 00:28:51,960
Said she wanted to be able to defend herself.

539
00:28:52,880 --> 00:28:54,920
So someone got to him after he talked to us.

540
00:28:54,960 --> 00:28:56,480
Yeah, he said he'd do anything for a deal.

541
00:28:56,480 --> 00:28:59,300
Obviously, somebody put him in a position to get one.

542
00:28:59,640 --> 00:29:00,440
Coached him on what to say.

543
00:29:00,780 --> 00:29:01,600
No, not somebody.

544
00:29:03,760 --> 00:29:05,260
I know who's framing me now.

545
00:29:11,910 --> 00:29:12,270
Here.

546
00:29:12,610 --> 00:29:13,450
Who let you in?

547
00:29:13,690 --> 00:29:16,210
Oh, uh, your assistant was away from his desk,

548
00:29:16,210 --> 00:29:18,010
so you decided to make yourselves at home.

549
00:29:18,430 --> 00:29:19,330
Hi, I'm RJ Decker.

550
00:29:19,830 --> 00:29:21,390
Your office prosecuted me once,

551
00:29:21,390 --> 00:29:22,910
but I don't believe we've had the pleasure.

552
00:29:23,050 --> 00:29:24,250
Emmy, what the hell is this?

553
00:29:25,850 --> 00:29:27,410
I heard a story yesterday.

554
00:29:29,050 --> 00:29:34,930
A man named Doyle Coven told the police I bought a gun from him.

555
00:29:36,310 --> 00:29:40,710
He said it was because I was worried about some break-ins in my building two years ago.

556
00:29:42,410 --> 00:29:45,330
The part about me buying a gun, that was a lie.

557
00:29:45,570 --> 00:29:49,930
But the part about me being worried about some break-ins, that was true.

558
00:29:51,890 --> 00:29:53,930
And I did go to see someone about it.

559
00:29:55,350 --> 00:29:57,250
Only it wasn't Doyle Coven.

560
00:29:58,970 --> 00:29:59,990
It was you.

561
00:30:01,150 --> 00:30:05,570
You said you would talk to someone, get some more patrol cars in the area.

562
00:30:07,210 --> 00:30:11,230
But because I knew I was asking for a special treatment,

563
00:30:11,270 --> 00:30:13,370
I never shared my concerns with anyone else.

564
00:30:14,570 --> 00:30:15,290
Just you.

565
00:30:16,870 --> 00:30:17,950
Did the break-ins stop?

566
00:30:18,050 --> 00:30:19,330
I don't think I ever asked.

567
00:30:21,750 --> 00:30:23,910
You told Doyle Coven what to say.

568
00:30:25,630 --> 00:30:27,290
Because you killed my father.

569
00:30:29,890 --> 00:30:31,630
Emmy, why would I do that?

570
00:30:32,110 --> 00:30:34,450
Probably because you're just as dirty as he was.

571
00:30:35,230 --> 00:30:37,050
After all, he put you in this office.

572
00:30:37,510 --> 00:30:39,590
No way he does that if you thought you were above a bribe.

573
00:30:39,950 --> 00:30:43,150
I recently found out that one of the pockets he was in

574
00:30:43,150 --> 00:30:46,930
belonged to a Haitian military group, non-Lacelle.

575
00:30:47,350 --> 00:30:48,150
You've heard of them.

576
00:30:48,390 --> 00:30:50,150
I assume it's because you're in their pocket too?

577
00:30:51,070 --> 00:30:54,230
When knowing my father, he probably made the introductions.

578
00:30:55,310 --> 00:30:58,390
Told them it would be a good idea to have a DA on the payroll

579
00:30:58,390 --> 00:31:00,090
in case one of their people gets arrested.

580
00:31:00,310 --> 00:31:01,830
Yeah, all this to say we think you knew

581
00:31:01,830 --> 00:31:05,430
enough of each other's dirty laundry to assure mutual destruction.

582
00:31:07,310 --> 00:31:11,490
The last time I saw Victor, he reminded me you were one of his oldest friends.

583
00:31:12,690 --> 00:31:14,490
He called you to his house that night, didn't he?

584
00:31:15,330 --> 00:31:17,370
Pressured you to drop the case against him.

585
00:31:18,310 --> 00:31:19,630
But that put you in a tough spot, didn't it?

586
00:31:19,690 --> 00:31:22,810
Because if you didn't do what he wanted, he would have taken you down with him,

587
00:31:22,810 --> 00:31:26,290
letting him walk, that would have been career suicide.

588
00:31:27,630 --> 00:31:30,110
The case was too high profile, so you thought of a third option.

589
00:31:34,540 --> 00:31:36,140
Can you prove any of this?

590
00:31:37,940 --> 00:31:41,040
Because if all you have to suggest that I killed Victor

591
00:31:41,040 --> 00:31:44,700
is a gun dealer who knew a story I also knew,

592
00:31:44,760 --> 00:31:46,460
there's a much simpler explanation.

593
00:31:47,040 --> 00:31:48,560
The gun dealer is telling the truth.

594
00:31:48,720 --> 00:31:52,600
Not to mention, if I was in possession of the murder weapon this whole time,

595
00:31:52,600 --> 00:31:55,660
why would I have waited so long to frame you?

596
00:31:57,020 --> 00:32:01,400
I have to say, if your plan is to try and sell any of this to a jury,

597
00:32:01,520 --> 00:32:02,600
I like my odds.

598
00:32:02,960 --> 00:32:04,760
You're both going to get out of here now

599
00:32:04,760 --> 00:32:08,240
before I add trespassing to the charges against you.

600
00:32:14,250 --> 00:32:16,590
I told you I was willing to plead this down.

601
00:32:17,530 --> 00:32:20,010
Take the deal before I change my mind.

602
00:32:36,520 --> 00:32:38,060
I don't know if you saw my text.

603
00:32:38,900 --> 00:32:40,280
Sophia's having dinner at Charlotte's.

604
00:32:40,340 --> 00:32:41,160
I just dropped her off.

605
00:32:42,340 --> 00:32:43,760
RJ told you what happened?

606
00:32:44,460 --> 00:32:44,720
Oh yeah.

607
00:32:45,120 --> 00:32:47,380
The district attorney of Fort Lauderdale is a murderer,

608
00:32:47,760 --> 00:32:49,680
and Emmy is still on the fast track to prison.

609
00:32:50,520 --> 00:32:51,060
How was your day?

610
00:32:51,920 --> 00:32:53,300
Compared to Emmy's walk in the park,

611
00:32:53,500 --> 00:32:55,200
but at least her head's back in the game.

612
00:32:55,500 --> 00:32:56,920
There's no way she'll take the plea now.

613
00:32:58,900 --> 00:33:00,200
What am I smelling?

614
00:33:00,820 --> 00:33:01,900
Oh, a frozen pizza.

615
00:33:02,600 --> 00:33:04,060
I wasn't exactly in the mood to cook.

616
00:33:04,840 --> 00:33:06,140
How long have you been eating it?

617
00:33:06,140 --> 00:33:06,980
Oh.

618
00:33:09,540 --> 00:33:09,980
Oh no.

619
00:33:09,980 --> 00:33:11,280
I'll make some bolognese.

620
00:33:11,460 --> 00:33:11,860
Oh god.

621
00:33:12,100 --> 00:33:12,580
Oh god.

622
00:33:14,320 --> 00:33:16,900
Did someone from the squad finally come through

623
00:33:16,900 --> 00:33:18,360
and get you the case file?

624
00:33:19,240 --> 00:33:19,620
I know.

625
00:33:20,840 --> 00:33:22,980
RJ's new friend, Agustin,

626
00:33:23,300 --> 00:33:24,720
the one who works for the Haitian gang.

627
00:33:25,340 --> 00:33:26,460
RJ has a copy too.

628
00:33:27,820 --> 00:33:29,220
What if he paid Blake a visit?

629
00:33:29,700 --> 00:33:29,900
Oh.

630
00:33:30,840 --> 00:33:31,160
Agustin.

631
00:33:31,920 --> 00:33:33,420
Maybe it puts the fear of God in her,

632
00:33:33,600 --> 00:33:34,600
she confesses.

633
00:33:34,600 --> 00:33:36,100
The way RJ described him,

634
00:33:36,180 --> 00:33:38,220
I don't think he's in the fear of God business.

635
00:33:38,660 --> 00:33:40,120
More like the meeting God business.

636
00:33:40,560 --> 00:33:41,220
We sick him on Lake,

637
00:33:41,360 --> 00:33:43,080
we have no control over how he handles her.

638
00:33:43,580 --> 00:33:44,680
He could just make her disappear.

639
00:33:45,100 --> 00:33:46,520
She doesn't show up for work tomorrow.

640
00:33:46,840 --> 00:33:48,780
And then Emmy's still on the hook for murder.

641
00:33:49,360 --> 00:33:51,120
Is there anything helpful in there?

642
00:33:51,280 --> 00:33:53,460
I mean, most of what's here we already knew.

643
00:33:54,040 --> 00:33:56,320
The only exception is this.

644
00:33:57,220 --> 00:33:59,240
Forensics found some weird residue on the gun.

645
00:33:59,980 --> 00:34:01,120
Lake did a good job cleaning it.

646
00:34:01,180 --> 00:34:02,620
There were no prints, no DNA,

647
00:34:02,620 --> 00:34:04,740
but I guess she missed some gunk in the crevices.

648
00:34:05,720 --> 00:34:07,760
Acrylic sand blue pigment.

649
00:34:08,100 --> 00:34:09,480
Task Force hasn't identified it yet,

650
00:34:09,480 --> 00:34:11,420
but they know it's not from Victor's house,

651
00:34:11,780 --> 00:34:12,960
not from Emmy's condo.

652
00:34:14,060 --> 00:34:17,800
I'm wondering if it could help us track where the gun has been.

653
00:34:18,700 --> 00:34:20,580
Do you remember when the HOA was talking about

654
00:34:20,580 --> 00:34:22,780
putting a pickleball cord in up the street?

655
00:34:23,600 --> 00:34:24,860
Of course I do, babe.

656
00:34:25,160 --> 00:34:25,960
I did a deep dive,

657
00:34:26,160 --> 00:34:28,640
wanted to make sure the materials they were using weren't toxic.

658
00:34:30,020 --> 00:34:30,500
Respectfully,

659
00:34:30,500 --> 00:34:32,640
what the hell does it have to do with anything?

660
00:34:33,180 --> 00:34:34,040
I'll give you three hints.

661
00:34:35,560 --> 00:34:37,320
Acrylic sand blue pigment.

662
00:34:41,740 --> 00:34:43,380
The blue residue the Task Force found,

663
00:34:43,920 --> 00:34:45,800
chemical makeup is the same as the stuff in that bucket.

664
00:34:46,180 --> 00:34:46,300
Okay.

665
00:34:46,600 --> 00:34:48,720
So it makes up the playing surface on a pickleball court.

666
00:34:49,840 --> 00:34:50,840
Me and Kath are HOA.

667
00:34:51,280 --> 00:34:53,200
They wouldn't sign off on one going up in our neighborhood,

668
00:34:53,380 --> 00:34:54,840
not because the chemicals were bad,

669
00:34:54,840 --> 00:34:57,320
but the noise of the communities

670
00:34:57,320 --> 00:34:59,580
they were tearing themselves apart over pickleball.

671
00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:00,580
It's the rackets.

672
00:35:00,620 --> 00:35:01,880
They don't have strings.

673
00:35:01,880 --> 00:35:02,920
Hit a ball with one.

674
00:35:03,200 --> 00:35:03,640
You get a pop.

675
00:35:04,020 --> 00:35:06,940
A loud one over and over and over.

676
00:35:07,520 --> 00:35:08,620
People who live near courts,

677
00:35:09,060 --> 00:35:12,280
they get angry and sometimes they get violent.

678
00:35:13,240 --> 00:35:14,180
Okay, so what's the theory?

679
00:35:14,280 --> 00:35:15,780
The same gun that was used to kill Victor

680
00:35:15,780 --> 00:35:17,120
was using some pickleball fight?

681
00:35:18,860 --> 00:35:20,500
Multiple incidents the past year,

682
00:35:20,600 --> 00:35:21,660
people vandalizing courts.

683
00:35:22,420 --> 00:35:23,900
Not seeing any mention of guns.

684
00:35:24,280 --> 00:35:25,880
No, but look at this one.

685
00:35:27,600 --> 00:35:31,440
What if the gun was never on a pickleball court?

686
00:35:32,040 --> 00:35:35,400
What if it was in a pickleball court?

687
00:35:38,890 --> 00:35:40,810
Now, it's not that I don't appreciate

688
00:35:40,810 --> 00:35:42,750
the police coming to take another look,

689
00:35:43,410 --> 00:35:45,390
especially not with such a handsome officer.

690
00:35:45,790 --> 00:35:46,350
He's not police.

691
00:35:47,150 --> 00:35:48,030
He's still handsome.

692
00:35:48,190 --> 00:35:48,710
You're very kind.

693
00:35:49,730 --> 00:35:50,650
Like I said on the phone,

694
00:35:50,770 --> 00:35:52,430
we decided not to pursue charges.

695
00:35:53,430 --> 00:35:54,710
Whichever one of our residences,

696
00:35:54,990 --> 00:35:56,750
the vandal will just handle it internally.

697
00:35:57,390 --> 00:35:57,730
Okay.

698
00:35:58,030 --> 00:36:00,130
Well, the thing is, Pearl,

699
00:36:00,430 --> 00:36:01,350
Detective Abreu and I,

700
00:36:01,390 --> 00:36:02,350
we don't think this is vandalism.

701
00:36:03,250 --> 00:36:04,230
Other incidents we saw,

702
00:36:04,370 --> 00:36:06,090
people, they splashed paint on the courts,

703
00:36:06,210 --> 00:36:07,150
others tore up the nets.

704
00:36:07,770 --> 00:36:08,470
I mean, this, to me,

705
00:36:08,610 --> 00:36:10,350
it looks like someone took a jackhammer to it.

706
00:36:10,610 --> 00:36:12,630
Almost like someone was trying to dig something up.

707
00:36:14,530 --> 00:36:15,310
All right, say we're right.

708
00:36:15,750 --> 00:36:16,930
The lake did bury the gun here.

709
00:36:17,210 --> 00:36:18,570
If we don't find a way to connect it to it,

710
00:36:18,730 --> 00:36:19,230
it means nada.

711
00:36:24,900 --> 00:36:25,920
I think I just did.

712
00:36:26,480 --> 00:36:27,100
Hey, Pearl?

713
00:36:27,780 --> 00:36:28,620
Yes, gorgeous.

714
00:36:29,040 --> 00:36:29,800
The cart there,

715
00:36:29,900 --> 00:36:31,600
that's the community logo on it?

716
00:36:32,180 --> 00:36:32,840
That's us.

717
00:36:33,160 --> 00:36:33,740
Coconut Harbor.

718
00:36:33,820 --> 00:36:34,440
Coconut Harbor,

719
00:36:34,440 --> 00:36:35,580
and that's on all the carts.

720
00:36:35,580 --> 00:36:35,980
Yeah.

721
00:36:44,800 --> 00:36:47,100
Okay, this thing you're obviously on to,

722
00:36:47,140 --> 00:36:48,340
but not sharing with me,

723
00:36:48,700 --> 00:36:50,680
you think it'll be enough to convince a jury Emi's innocent?

724
00:36:51,780 --> 00:36:52,580
Definitely not.

725
00:36:53,480 --> 00:36:55,040
But it's not a jury I gotta convince.

726
00:36:58,910 --> 00:37:01,570
Because we need to let the director understand these terms,

727
00:37:02,150 --> 00:37:03,370
and, um,

728
00:37:04,190 --> 00:37:05,470
I'll catch up with you later.

729
00:37:07,130 --> 00:37:07,950
Detective Abreu,

730
00:37:08,110 --> 00:37:08,610
Mr. Decker,

731
00:37:09,470 --> 00:37:11,030
has Emi had a change of heart?

732
00:37:11,610 --> 00:37:12,690
Well, now that you mention it,

733
00:37:12,690 --> 00:37:14,310
she did seem more cheerful today,

734
00:37:14,750 --> 00:37:16,230
but I'm guessing that's not what you meant.

735
00:37:16,570 --> 00:37:18,130
Yeah, we were hoping to have a little talk with you,

736
00:37:18,210 --> 00:37:19,610
but we think this is one you're

737
00:37:19,610 --> 00:37:21,050
gonna want to have in private.

738
00:37:34,960 --> 00:37:36,800
You know, you asked us a good question the other day.

739
00:37:37,460 --> 00:37:39,080
If you had the murder weapon all along,

740
00:37:39,300 --> 00:37:42,040
why'd you wait almost three months to use it to frame Emi?

741
00:37:42,240 --> 00:37:43,720
My friends didn't have an answer for you then.

742
00:37:44,100 --> 00:37:45,060
We think we do now.

743
00:37:45,380 --> 00:37:47,500
It's because originally you never planned to frame anyone.

744
00:37:47,860 --> 00:37:49,940
You were okay with the murder going unsolved.

745
00:37:50,760 --> 00:37:52,980
That's why you buried a gun under a pickleball court.

746
00:37:53,120 --> 00:37:53,780
That was being built.

747
00:37:53,780 --> 00:37:56,200
Took us a minute to figure out why you picked that spot,

748
00:37:56,280 --> 00:37:59,300
then my handsome colleague here remembered something.

749
00:37:59,600 --> 00:38:01,320
Yeah, when I was in your office the other day,

750
00:38:01,460 --> 00:38:03,760
I saw a photo of you with an elderly couple.

751
00:38:04,820 --> 00:38:06,180
Your parents, right?

752
00:38:07,020 --> 00:38:08,300
Dominique and Roseanne Lake.

753
00:38:08,780 --> 00:38:10,520
In the shot, there was a golf cart

754
00:38:10,520 --> 00:38:13,120
with the logo of her senior's living community on it.

755
00:38:13,780 --> 00:38:15,060
Coconut Harbor, yeah?

756
00:38:15,260 --> 00:38:16,220
We were there this morning.

757
00:38:16,860 --> 00:38:18,120
We confirmed your parents were residents.

758
00:38:18,500 --> 00:38:20,540
They're the reason you knew that pickleball court was going up.

759
00:38:21,000 --> 00:38:22,900
You know, I gotta give credit where it's due.

760
00:38:23,560 --> 00:38:25,200
Burying a gun under all that, that was...

761
00:38:26,000 --> 00:38:26,780
It was a good plan.

762
00:38:27,740 --> 00:38:30,160
I mean, good chance nobody would have ever found it

763
00:38:30,740 --> 00:38:32,340
if you just left it there.

764
00:38:32,720 --> 00:38:33,380
Well, you didn't.

765
00:38:33,920 --> 00:38:35,120
Probably, if we had to guess,

766
00:38:35,460 --> 00:38:37,280
because word reached you that a representative

767
00:38:37,280 --> 00:38:39,420
of a group that was bribing you had come to town,

768
00:38:39,960 --> 00:38:40,640
Mr. Agustin.

769
00:38:41,140 --> 00:38:43,480
Suddenly it was dangerous to be Victor's murder unsolved.

770
00:38:43,800 --> 00:38:44,580
You needed a patsy.

771
00:38:44,640 --> 00:38:45,440
Well, you needed an Emi.

772
00:38:46,040 --> 00:38:47,840
So you dug up the gun, you planted it,

773
00:38:48,040 --> 00:38:49,520
you called in the tip about it yourself.

774
00:38:51,420 --> 00:38:53,640
Do you plan to take all of this to court?

775
00:38:54,700 --> 00:38:55,520
Be my guest.

776
00:38:55,740 --> 00:38:57,840
No, the last place we take is court.

777
00:38:59,080 --> 00:39:00,360
We take it to Mr. Agustin.

778
00:39:00,780 --> 00:39:01,840
Or at least I would.

779
00:39:02,860 --> 00:39:04,040
See, there are lines you don't cross

780
00:39:04,040 --> 00:39:05,640
when you work in the justice system.

781
00:39:06,240 --> 00:39:07,080
News to you, I'm sure.

782
00:39:07,460 --> 00:39:10,300
But I'm offering you a chance to confess.

783
00:39:11,520 --> 00:39:13,240
Because by the time Agustin finds out

784
00:39:13,240 --> 00:39:14,220
you're the one that killed Victor,

785
00:39:14,420 --> 00:39:16,080
you'll already be in protective custody.

786
00:39:17,540 --> 00:39:18,280
Take the deal.

787
00:39:34,280 --> 00:39:36,580
...to the murder of state senator Victor Ochoa.

788
00:39:37,100 --> 00:39:39,380
The state senator's daughter, Amelia Ochoa,

789
00:39:39,380 --> 00:39:41,560
was arrested for the murder earlier this week.

790
00:39:41,920 --> 00:39:43,580
But with today's stunning development,

791
00:39:43,900 --> 00:39:46,360
all charges against Ms. Ochoa have been dropped.

792
00:39:47,300 --> 00:39:49,120
In other news, invasive containers...

793
00:39:49,120 --> 00:39:50,920
Wait, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on.

794
00:39:52,320 --> 00:39:54,100
They never said your name.

795
00:39:54,460 --> 00:39:56,340
The hound ahead may never say your name.

796
00:39:56,800 --> 00:39:59,080
Considering I only got a confession by saying

797
00:39:59,080 --> 00:40:01,740
I'd give the DA up to a Haitian military group,

798
00:40:02,300 --> 00:40:03,160
probably for the best.

799
00:40:04,080 --> 00:40:05,460
Reminds me, your buddy Agustin

800
00:40:05,460 --> 00:40:06,600
dropped something off for you today.

801
00:40:06,920 --> 00:40:07,120
Huh.

802
00:40:07,920 --> 00:40:11,060
Now, this is a threat for turning the DA over

803
00:40:11,060 --> 00:40:12,800
to the cops instead of him, don't tell me.

804
00:40:12,920 --> 00:40:13,200
Okay.

805
00:40:14,020 --> 00:40:15,260
Unless I'm being threatened too.

806
00:40:15,640 --> 00:40:15,780
Right.

807
00:40:16,660 --> 00:40:17,400
Not that I want to know.

808
00:40:27,290 --> 00:40:28,970
You actually like this guy, don't you?

809
00:40:30,510 --> 00:40:32,790
Speaking of strange, ineffable friendships...

810
00:40:34,350 --> 00:40:35,490
Hey, all charges dropped.

811
00:40:35,730 --> 00:40:36,390
We just heard it on the news.

812
00:40:36,650 --> 00:40:36,770
Incredible.

813
00:40:37,930 --> 00:40:39,810
You'll see it like you had nothing to do with me.

814
00:40:43,740 --> 00:40:44,600
Thank you.

815
00:40:44,920 --> 00:40:46,160
Anytime, anytime.

816
00:40:48,160 --> 00:40:50,880
Um, can I talk to you for a second outside, though?

817
00:40:53,680 --> 00:40:55,300
This sounds serious.

818
00:40:55,820 --> 00:40:57,180
Uh, I mean, it kind of is.

819
00:40:58,060 --> 00:41:01,040
The other night you were saying you blame yourself

820
00:41:01,040 --> 00:41:02,160
for what happened to your dad.

821
00:41:02,960 --> 00:41:04,840
And I was just kind of hoping, I mean,

822
00:41:05,780 --> 00:41:07,360
now that we know he's really responsible.

823
00:41:08,260 --> 00:41:09,880
I'll cut myself a little slack.

824
00:41:10,300 --> 00:41:11,100
Well, maybe this much.

825
00:41:11,740 --> 00:41:14,480
I'll admit knowing the truth helps,

826
00:41:14,480 --> 00:41:17,640
but I still have a lot of work to do.

827
00:41:18,120 --> 00:41:20,320
If you asked me 15 years ago

828
00:41:20,320 --> 00:41:21,780
what I wanted to do with my life,

829
00:41:21,880 --> 00:41:23,780
I would have told you I wanted to help people.

830
00:41:24,360 --> 00:41:26,720
I'm just taking everything that's happened to me

831
00:41:26,720 --> 00:41:28,120
as a wake-up call.

832
00:41:29,580 --> 00:41:31,120
I just need to, I don't know,

833
00:41:32,540 --> 00:41:34,900
try to find that version of myself again.

834
00:41:35,400 --> 00:41:36,540
Like a missing person's case.

835
00:41:37,500 --> 00:41:37,800
Right.

836
00:41:38,480 --> 00:41:41,080
Like a missing person's case.

837
00:41:42,380 --> 00:41:44,520
I mean, if only I knew a good P.I.

838
00:41:44,680 --> 00:41:45,660
I'll have to check my calendar,

839
00:41:45,820 --> 00:41:47,400
but I have to, I'm very in demand.

840
00:41:47,840 --> 00:41:49,300
Check it inside over a beer.

841
00:41:49,500 --> 00:41:49,980
Let's do it.

842
00:41:50,060 --> 00:41:51,600
But honestly, I don't think you can afford that.

843
00:41:51,840 --> 00:41:52,220
No, I'm serious.

844
00:41:52,480 --> 00:41:53,620
My rates went up so fast.

845
00:41:54,620 --> 00:41:55,300
Oh, I did say that.
