TANNER: Do you know any of these people?

No, which means that...
He could be one of them.

DURAND: He's actually the one
who took the photograph.

She said she knew him through you.

You should've just kept your
mouth shut about that girl.

(GRUNTS)

The last time we saw each other,

I was accusing your son of
the worst possible crime.

I'm not sure what to think anymore.

If he didn't kill Mia and
he dies because of this...

All we can hope is that we get
a chance to make this right.

Ochoa gets high, goes to the street fair,

which means that he could've
been at the street fair

at the time that Mia was killed.

SARA: And there he is.

(KNOCKING ON DOOR)

- ALEX: Hey.
- Hey, come on in.

Why don't you answer your phone?
I've been...

Do you remember that fund-raiser
that I hosted at AllSourcer

when you were first running for Congress?

Do you still have a copy
of the guest list from that?

Um, yeah... I'm sure David could
find it. Why do you need it?

Mia's travel pal,
the French guy, Olivier.

He said that she met
her killer through me,

somehow, so I'm making a list of everyone

that I might have introduced her to.

Okay, Jeffrey, that is
an impossible task.

That list could be

hundreds of people, maybe thousands.

What else am I supposed to do?

I-I can't blame her death
on the sketchy people

that she met volunteering
at a shelter anymore.

Jeffrey, you can't
blame yourself, either.

This is ridiculous.
Look what you're doing.

Did you sleep?

Is that a number two burrito?

Yeah. I figured, since I was coming by,

I'd bring you a little breakfast.

I'm turning into a mother hen,
I swear to God.

What are you doing here, by the way?

Well, the hearing for
Carlos's release is today,

and I sort of developed
a bond with his mom, so...

I wanted to see it through to the end.

Which means I'm going to need
every single thing you have

on that alibi photo for the trial.

Everything, so I can get
caught up to speed and...

Sure, no problem. I'll text Mike

- and you can pick it up downstairs.
- Okay, great.

But I'm gonna need that guest
list from the fund-raiser.

You don't need it.

Alex, I...

You don't need it, Jeffrey.

Mia was not at the event, remember?

She was on a ski trip in Colorado.

Look, Jeffrey, this is a victory.

Getting Carlos out of prison,
it's a victory.

We should be excited and celebrate.

Don't let your burrito get cold.

(DOOR OPENS)

(DOOR CLOSES)

(SIREN WAILING)

- Really?
- It's about time.

So you know you promised me
a day off, right?

Look, how long have you known me, Tommy?

You know you can't believe
everything I say.

I was gonna get the car washed,
play a little hoop,

and get caught up on some of the
games I recorded this weekend.

Well, I'm sure the owner of
this house had some plans, too.

Yeah, well...

RUIZ: Carl Bullock. Lived alone.

Not real social.
The lady across the street

saw his cat outside this morning,

went to tell him, saw the body
through the window.

No forced entry, no sign of a struggle.

The casings are all nine-mil.

Any idea when it went down?

Little after 11:00 last night.

The neighbors across the street
heard the shots.

They didn't call it in?

They said they thought
somebody else would.

(SCOFFS)

Nothing like civic involvement.

You got a stone-cold
whodunit on your hands,

and a whole squad room full
of detectives to choose from.

You had to ruin my day off for this?

I didn't call you
for what's on the floor.

I called you for what's in the basement.

What's in...?

♪

(DOOR CREAKS)

What the hell?

Seems like you might want
to call Tanner, yeah?

(INDISTINCT POLICE RADIO CHATTER)

Hey.

Hey.

TANNER: Well, this is different.

Guy was a bit of a conspiracy nut, huh?

CAVANAUGH: Yeah, you can say that.

These are Sophe cases.

Guy was a Sophe user.

Yeah. But you're missing the
biggest Sophe case of all.

"Was Mia killed
to control Jeffrey Tanner?"

SARA: Carl Bullock

was a Sophe user, all right.

Yeah. We haven't instituted
a triple platinum level yet,

but if we did, Bullock would own it.

Sophe was like crack to this guy.

He posted constantly.

Some of it legit.

He led the charge to identify Jack Foley,

and he helped pinpoint
which AllSourcer celebrities

- Lucas King would target.
- That's great,

but most of what's in here
is pretty out there.

JOSH: Oh, no, there's plenty
of that here, too.

Uh, most of his posts, actually.

"Why isn't Sophe CrowdTec looking

into the CIA
detention center on Alcatraz?"

"Sophe should investigate
the secret chemical fog

used to control San Francisco."

JOSH: Looks like he was trying

to spur interest, maybe find support

from other like-minded users.

Anybody jump out as hostile?
Anyone I should look at?

SARA: No, most of the users seemed
to be pretty patient with him.

Some even bought into his theories.

Hold up. He had fans?

To some degree, yes.

And what did he post about Mia's case?

Uh, nothing, actually.

He's never contributed anything
to Mia's case.

TANNER: Well, doesn't that strike

anybody as strange? I mean,
given his obvious interest.

There's more than enough
strange here to go around.

Do you think he was murdered because of

something he posted on Sophe?

Or maybe something he didn't post.

All right, somebody breaks
in here, tosses the place.

So whatever they're after
is worth killing for.

The problem is this guy must have been

chasing at least
a hundred different theories.

Yeah, so...

all we have to do is figure out
which one got him killed.

♪

== sync, corrected by Jung Woo ==
wwwFlashTvSubtitles.Tk

Ms. Bullock, you and Carl were
separated for some time.

About four years now.

No divorce?

I... I still loved him.

I just, I couldn't be with him anymore.

I mean, you saw that room.

You have to know, though,
he wasn't always like that,

like obsessed. He...

He was a good husband and...

he was a great father.

We were happy.

I'm sorry.

Oh, that's all right. You're fine.

We had a son, Chris. He was 17.

He crashed one night
on the way home from work

on his motorcycle.
It was a stupid accident.

Just...

He lost control, went off the road.

Carl could never accept it.

He started to believe
that the police lied

on the accident report.

He ran ads looking for witnesses,

parking for hours by the accident site.

When he was fired,
he decided that his boss

was in on the conspiracy, too.

I-I tried to pull him back, but...

there was nothing that I could do.

I...

I lost him.

I lost them both.

Ms. Bullock... (CLEARS THROAT SOFTLY)

can you think of any reason
someone would want to harm Carl?

I don't know.

He... he was abrasive.

A lot of people didn't like that.

Do you know anything about

Carl's more recent investigations,

like what he was working on?

I'm sorry, Mr. Tanner.

I... figured that's why you were here.

I-I'm sorry. What do you mean?

Well, your daughter's murder, that was...

Carl's latest obsession.

Ever since you started Sophe,
that was pretty much his life.

TANNER: Can you tell me anything
that-that he discovered,

you know, anything that he figured out?

I hit a point a long time ago
where I couldn't listen anymore.

We had a rule: if Carl wanted to see me,

we... no conspiracy talk.

But you know that he was working
on my daughter's murder case?

Only because he was

obsessed with the reward money,
the $100 million.

He was obsessed with
how he was gonna spend it.

As if that would help anything at all.

Trust me, Mr. Tanner, I...

I wouldn't read too much into it.

(SCANNER WHIRRING, BEEPING)

Oh. Those are the ones
already scanned to Sophe.

Those still need to go.

Thanks for pitching in, Megan.

Sorry it's not more glamorous
than doing tech support

back at The Hive.

I don't know, it's
pretty interesting, actually.

I mean, this guy was insanely meticulous.

Consider maybe stopping at insane.

No, seriously, everything that he did,

he footnoted to his journals.

Everything on the walls,

all the posts to Sophe, it's all double-

and triple-referenced.

It's kind of brilliant, actually.

In a sad way.

Yeah. Brilliant up until he believes

that Vladimir Putin
may have ordered Mia's murder.

Or that the military
is releasing nerve agents

into the fog to help control
the city's population.

Actually, a Navy minesweeper did release

chemical bacteria
into the fog in the 1950s.

TARIQ: Please don't tell me
you're buying into this stuff.

I'm just saying, not all of it
can be summarily dismissed.

Beg to differ.
Think it's pretty safe to say

there's no such thing as mind control.

Or chemtrails.

Or reptilian humanoids living among us.

Yeah, except you can't
actually say any of that.

It's not an empirically sound statement.

So, do you believe
in these conspiracy theories?

No, I'm just saying, there's
no way to prove they're false

in a purely scientific sense.

Absence of evidence

is not evidence of absence.

Wow. Who thought, in a room
full of all this crazy stuff,

the thing that'd
surprise me most is Josh?

- What's up?
- The journals.

Bullock had them all numbered
and cross-referenced.

- Yeah, meticulously. We know.
- Right.

But what I was gonna say is...
some of them are missing.

Your Honor, as you heard
from the organizer of the event,

this photo was taken
the night of the fair,

and it clearly shows

Carlos Ochoa in the crowd,
in a location other than

Mia Tanner's apartment
at the time of her murder.

Mr. Collier, do you agree?

Your Honor, for the purposes
of this hearing,

the People are willing to stipulate

to the authenticity of the photograph.

(QUIETLY): This is good.
This is really good.

The D.A.'s not gonna fight it, okay?

JUDGE: And if I grant
the defense's motion, and order

- a new trial for Mr. Ochoa?
- Well, in the event

of a new trial, the People,
of course, would reserve

their right to do
further investigations, but...

So the taxpayers would pay
for Mr. Ochoa's release,

and the cost of the new trial,

all so that you can just
contest the evidence then?

Your Honor, the taxpayers are paying

for Mr. Ochoa's incarceration as it is.

Yes, Ms. Quinn,
an incarceration he earned

by virtue of being convicted
by a jury of his peers.

The public has an interest
in the integrity

of that verdict, and I am wary
of undermining that based on

what amounts to Internet vigilantism.

Internet vigilantism?
The photo shows what it shows,

regardless of whether
it was on the Internet or not.

In fact, the photo was publicly available

at the time of
Mr. Ochoa's trial, was it not?

Yes, Your Honor, but...

This isn't evidence that wasn't available

to the defense previously.

It's just evidence
that the defense failed to find.

QUINN: I didn't represent Mr. Ochoa
at his original trial, Your Honor.

That's not the fault

- of the court, Ms. Quinn.
- ALEX: Listen, Your Honor,

the photo proves that Carlos is innocent.

It doesn't matter when

we found it, where we found it...

Ms. Hale, I need you
to sit down and be quiet now.

I will be taking this motion
under advisement.

I will issue my decision within 24 hours.

I don't understand.

Why isn't he freeing Carlos?

I don't know, but don't worry.

I promise, this is gonna be okay.

(SIGHS)

Well, I can see why
you're fascinated by it.

Your picture's right in the center.

You don't really think Mia's
murder is about you, do you?

I'm not sure what to think anymore.

Jeffrey, this man was unhinged.

Everything was a conspiracy to him.

Yeah, but we both know
that there's a conspiracy here.

Someone arranged to take
Carlos Ochoa out in prison.

Someone with means and power.

Apparently, someone I already know.

Based on what?

The word of some man Mia met
in a youth hostel somewhere?

And, look, even if it's true,

even if Carl Bullock somehow
figured all of this out,

why didn't he post any of it on Sophe?

We always intended
the $100 million reward

be shared with everyone who contributed

to finding out who killed Mia, right?

Well, what if he wanted

to keep all the money for himself?

All right, so it's just
simple game theory?

Exactly. He didn't want
to share information

'cause he didn't want to share the prize.

Yeah, he must have
found some bit of truth

that got him killed.

I just can't figure out what it is.

Gosh, if only we had a machine,
some sort of platform

that could harness many minds
instead of one.

(EVIDENCE ALARM BEEPING)

Talk to me.

Uh, all of Carl Bullock's

theories and journals have been posted.

- Well, the ones we have.
- What do you mean, the ones you have?

TARIQ: Some of his journals are missing.

We don't know where they went.

Well, the killer probably took them

'cause they contained clues

about Mia's killer.

We don't know that.

Well, what else makes sense?
I mean, what about our posts?

- What have the responses been?
- TARIQ: It's off the charts.

Like, record levels.

JOSH: Yeah, we had to create

a separate thread
just for all the tributes.

SARA: Well, one of their
own has been killed.

The users are coming together en masse.

Okay, well, that's beautiful,
but what about the case?

The users are working on it.

They're trying to connect the dots.

But this guy's posts have been
intricately cross-referenced

with his evidence logs, journals.

He has bibliographies
for his bibliographies.

It's nuts.

Tell me you got something.

I checked out Bullock's estranged wife.

She had alibi for the murder.
What about ballistics,

fingerprints? I mean, what kind of stuff

were you doing before
there was a Sophe? Come on.

Slugs don't match anything in the system.

- Neither do the prints.
- He's way too smart for that.

That's how he's been able
to stay under the radar

- for over a year.
- Look, slow down, Tanner, okay?

We don't know if this has anything to do

- with Mia's death.
- Bullock's ex said

that Mia's case was the last
thing that he was working on.

That she knew.

She also said they didn't
talk about this work.

Look, I know you're mad, all right?

I just don't want to see you
spin out over something

that's probably just a coincidence.

A coincidence?

(EVIDENCE ALERT BLARING)

I guess we'll see about that.

JOSH: The users are

correlating Bullock's
journal entries to his posts.

They've confirmed
which journals are missing.

They're all connected to

the same theory
Bullock was investigating.

Not too late to change
your bet, Detective.

Uh...

TARIQ: And the top vote-getter is...

TANNER: "City Official
Part of a Reptilian

Cabal ""

What the hell did you do?

"City Official, Reptilian Cabal"?

What the hell does that even mean?

It's one of Bullock's
conspiracy theories.

He believed that a city supervisor,

Kevin Simko, was a member of...

Well, you get the rest.

Just for the record, this
whole Lizard Man stuff...

it's kind of actually a thing.

Four percent of Americans
believe that reptilian aliens

are living among us,
masquerading as humans,

and... What was that thing, Josh?

You said the absence of evidence
is the same as not evidence.

Or wait. How'd it go?

Did-did you guys post everything
that Bullock had on Mia?

Of course they did, Jeffrey.

For once, Sophe got it wrong,

and I suspect it is
not the crowd's fault.

Garbage in, garbage out.

Run it again, and do it right this time.

(FOOTSTEPS APPROACHING)

SARA: Excuse me, but I'm just

trying to wrap my mind
around what I just witnessed.

- Sara, listen...
- Did you just disregard user results

because they didn't match
your preconceptions?

If properly harnessed,
the crowd is amazing,

all right, but it's not foolproof.

If we put conspiracy theories out there,

it's going to produce
fringe results, all right?

It's gonna create bias.

Oh, wait, wait. Sorry.
This from a man who spent

two hours today staring at this.

Mia was real, and her killer is real.

Jeffrey, users didn't choose
the Lizard Man theory

because they believe it.

They chose it because that is
where the evidence led them.

Yeah? How?

Because those are the
journals that are missing!

And a user at City Hall said
he recently saw Bullock attend

several supervisor meetings.

Maybe there's something
in it, maybe there isn't.

But the only way to know
is to follow it up.

TANNER: Where's Cavanaugh going?

To talk to the supervisor.

Look, I know that you wanted this to be

about Mia... we all did.

But the only way we're
gonna solve her murder

is through Sophe.

Don't get stuck in a hall of
mirrors like Carl Bullock did.

(SIGHS)

I'm sorry, Detective.

If you want to maybe schedule something.

No, I'm good. I'll-I'll wait.

Joel, I need the school board file.

Supervisor Simko.

Can I grab five minutes of your time?

Yeah.

I want to ask you about someone.

- It's Carl Bullock.
- You know him?

Yeah. Wish I didn't.
Guy's a colossal pain in my ass.

I mean, he calls here all the time

leaving these bizarre
messages, he interrupts

our board meetings making
all sorts of crazy claims.

Like calling you a Lizard Man maybe?

(SIGHS) Can you walk with me?

Yeah.

Yeah, apparently,

I've got some some sort of
reptilian mind-control ability.

I don't know. If only.

It'd be funny, except,
these days, you never know

if a guy like that's gonna go off.

In fact, I was thinking
about having my office

look into a restraining order.

No need anymore. Bullock's dead.

Murdered in his home.

Huh.

Ah, sorry. Not gonna lose
any sleep over it.

Can't imagine the guy had much of a life.

So, can you imagine a reason
why anyone would want him dead?

Well, like I said,
the guy was a pain in the ass.

You know, maybe he just

pushed the wrong guy's buttons, you know?

Listen, Detective, I'm...

I'm late for about
six different things right now.

Of course. Thank you for your time.

I saw that Carl boarded
the number eight bus

headed north on Samsome.

I'm thinking he ended up at Coit Tower.

Why do you think that?
What-What's at Coit Tower?

NSA hyper-parabolic microphones.

One of Bullock's theories was

that the NSA has a listening
station on Telegraph Hill.

Thank you, Ty. Appreciate it.

If you know anything else,
just get back to us.

Actually, the O.S.S. did house
an observation station there

- during World War Two.
- TANNER: Josh stay with us, please.

- Come on, man.
- I'm just saying, a lot of these

crazy-sounding ideas have
a basis in historical fact.

What are we doing?

We're trying to coax
Josh back to reality.

We're trying to piece together
Carl Bullock's movements

over the last few days.
He didn't have a car,

but Cavanaugh got us access
to his transit pass.

Now, I've mapped together all of

Bullock's ride segments
over the last 72 hours.

Um, yellow are bus rides, blue is BART.

GREEN: cable cars and trolleys.

And then what?

TANNER: And then we contacted everyone

who commented on one of his posts.

We got people out in the field.

We're basically trying to match up

his rides with any of the theories.

Lizard Man included?

Lizard Man, Lizard Woman, Lizard Baby.

(EVIDENCE ALERT BEEPING)

TARIQ: It's a user from the
Powell Street BART station.

Carl was there twice yesterday afternoon.

I'm sorry, I have to
handle this. Excuse me.

Judge Bauman used to be known
as "Bleeding-Heart Bauman."

Three years ago, he granted a motion

to release an inmate named Willis Lee.

Two months later,
Willis Lee raped and killed

- a high school student in San Pablo.
- TANNER: Let me guess.

Bauman's heart's starting
to bleed a whole lot less now.

ALEX: What's the old saying?

A conservative is just
a liberal who got mugged?

(SIGHS) I should have
seen this coming. I'm sorry.

We just have to figure out
what we're gonna do

if Bauman rules against us. Then what?

QUINN: Well, the next step
would be to file a petition

with the state court of appeals.

Eventually that might get
to the California Supreme Court.

That could take months or years.
I mean, that's so long.

I'm just explaining the options.

It's just frustrating
because Bauman knows

that Carlos is innocent,
and yet he won't release him.

He just doesn't want it

to blow up in his face
if he lets him out.

We have to make sure it blows up
in his face if he doesn't.

What are you doing?

I got a few hundred thousand
friends that might be able

to help us out on this.

Hey, we're getting reports from users

about Carl Bullock's whereabouts.

(EVIDENCE ALERT BEEPING)

Whoa, check out the blast from the past.

It's ForceofWill.

(CHUCKLES) Hey, what's up, Team Sophe?

SARA: Oh, Will.

It's good to see you again.

I didn't take you
for the conspiracy type.

Yeah, it's more of a hobby.

But, you know,
Bullock was, uh, good people.

What have you got for us?

Bullock took a bus to Van Ness and Eddy

the past three nights.

I was driving around the area,
and, uh, I just got lucky.

Lucky how?

Oh, there are a couple, uh,
no-tell motels in the area.

You'll never believe
who I just saw go into one.

The lizard man himself.

Kevin Simko.

WILL: Great donut place
just around the corner. I mean,

if I'd have known you guys
were coming, I'd save you some.

Well, we're fine. Thank you, though.

You know, we got this covered.

- Might be better if you head on home.
- You kidding me?

I've been a Sophe user
from day one. I'm staying.

Tell me something, Will.

I'm always on the other side.
What made you start using Sophe?

Was it the reward money?

(CHUCKLES) No.

No, I never even think about that.

Honestly, my whole life,

I've sort of had to depend
on other people.

Sophe gives me a chance
to give back a little, you know?

To-to help someone else out.

Plus, when I was a kid, I really
loved T.J. Hooker, so...

(CAVANAUGH CHUCKLES)

Of course.

That's Simko there.

I-I told you.

Is that Mrs. Bullock?

Bullock had it wrong.

Supervisor's not a lizard.

He's a snake.

Mrs. Bullock.
Anything you want to tell me

before I talk to your boyfriend?

Look, I know you have an alibi.

But if you know anything
about your husband's murder

- and keep silent...
- I've told you

everything I know, Detective.

I was sleeping with a married
man... I'm not proud of that...

but I don't know
anything about Carl's death.

I don't know what else to say.

All right.

Here.

I know how this looks.

I'm not judging.

The truth is I would have
filed for divorce,

but it would have sent Carl
deeper into a spiral.

Once you lose a child,

it's tough for any marriage
to survive that.

Ours didn't even last that long.

Sorry.

It's funny how much
you can still care about someone

even after you've been pushed apart.

I wasn't expecting that.

If you, uh,
if you don't mind me asking...

I mean, how long...

you know, I mean, since... your son...?

Five years.

Does it get easier?

I don't think so.

I just think...

maybe some people are better
at dealing with it than others.

I want it noted that my client
is here voluntarily,

out of respect
for the San Francisco police.

Oh, yeah, I feel the love.

Why didn't you tell me about
your affair with Emma Bullock?

Didn't think my personal life
was relevant.

I tell you Carl Bullock

was murdered, you're sleeping
with the guy's wife,

you didn't think it was relevant?

(CHUCKLES SOFTLY)

Okay. (CLEARS THROAT)

You said Bullock was a pain in the ass.

He ever threaten to reveal your affair?

Maybe over the mic
at a supervisor's meeting?

This is ridiculous, all right?
I didn't kill him.

You certainly had motive.

A wife, kids. A political career.

I think my client already made it clear

he had nothing to do
with Mr. Bullock's death.

It's just better to get it all out here,

between us,

in this room.

Is that some kind of a threat, Detective?

I'm just trying to clear things up.

You've already lied to me once.

I want to know if there's anything else

you're lying about.

Okay, I think we're done here.

Hey. Mr. Simko.

Where were you the night
Carl Bullock was killed?

I was in my office, working late.

Dedicated public servant, huh?

Anyone corroborate that?

Joel.

Tell him. You were there, you saw me.

Uh...

Yeah, we were both working late.

I remember.

DRUMMOND: That clear
things up enough for you,

Detective?

Let's just be clear about something else.

If any part of our conversation
gets out of this office,

your career's a lot closer
to being ruined than mine.

I'm not a detective, Detective,
but that alibi...

seems a little shady to me.

- (REPORTERS CLAMORING)
- Mr. Tanner, how do you think...

No comment. Thank you.

(DOOR CLOSES)

TANNER: Nice audience.

- You like that?
- Yeah.

Well, I do have a
full-time press secretary,

so I need to get my money's
worth once in a while.

BAILIFF: Stay seated.

Come to order.

Good morning, everyone.

It appears we have a bit more interest

in today's proceedings than usual.

In that case,
I'll get right to my decision.

- I am...
- Your Honor.

Before you make your ruling,

defense moves that you
recuse yourself from this case.

- (GALLERY MURMURING QUIETLY)
- On what grounds?

Conflict of interest, Your Honor.

Conflict of...

Have you lost your mind, Ms. Quinn?

There's absolutely
no basis for that here.

Actually, Your Honor, there is.

Clearly, you have

a personal vendetta against me.

(GALLERY MURMURING)

All of you,

in my chambers now.

What possible grudge

could I have against you, Mr. Tanner?

One based on the fact that I
cost you a great deal of money.

I have no idea what you're talking about,

and I'm not sure you do, either.

Your investment portfolio.

Until recently,
it contained a sizable stake

in my old company, AllSourcer,
which unfortunately

took a great tumble when I left.

I guess there's just no substitute

for great management.

BAUMAN: This is outrageous.

I have a financial advisor
who handles this.

I have nothing to do with it.

And my decision in this case has

- absolutely nothing to do with you.
- And I don't doubt that

for a minute, but you have to understand,

there's a lot of press out there.

Which story do you think
they're gonna want to run with?

- Mr. Tanner, I'm warning you.
- "Rich judge keeps disadvantaged kid

in prison because he's angry
about his stock portfolio ""

See, I think that that
story will have legs.

I will find you in contempt,

and I will have you charged
with extortion.

Okay, listen to me, both of you, please.

Your Honor, if I may.

When Carlos was on trial

for what we thought he did
to our daughter,

we both wanted him behind bars
for the rest of his life,

but we were so wrong to do that.

Because he didn't do it.
We know that now.

The picture proves it.

And knowing that an innocent man

has suffered the way that he has...

knowing that another mother
may lose her child...

you have the chance to be
on the right side of this.

So we are asking you...

to please let him go.

Hey. You having any luck?

You realize that's an insult, right?

Implying what we do is
at all related to luck.

I do now. I asked if they could find out

where Simko was on Tuesday night.

The night of Bullock's murder?

I thought he had an alibi.

Not one I'm buying.

- What do you got?
- As you can probably guess,

Simko is not a big public transit guy.

But what perk do
upper-level city employees get?

A city-issued toll pass.
Ruiz got one for her promotion.

Jealous much?

JOSH: Simko may have told you

he was working in his office,

but according to his billing records,

his toll pass went for a drive.

9:38 p.m., he crossed

the Bay Bridge, eastbound;
10:17, he's back

on the Bay Bridge, this time city-bound.

SARA: So, he was in the East Bay area

for 40 minutes.

What was he doing?

Let me limit Bullock's data
to that same time frame.

Bullock went to San Leandro?

They were both in the East Bay

at the same time. Why? What's over there?

Yesterday, when we were
tracking Bullock's movements,

users had a couple theories
on why he might have gone there.

Capital Northern,

FMT...

Walland Construction.

There were plans and models

in Simko's office
for the renovation of Muni Hall.

Walland is the contractor.

Josh, can you put that out to our users?

Yeah.

I heard the good news.

Took a little persuading, but, uh,

ultimately the judge ruled in our favor.

- So when is Carlos is free?
- Very soon.

That's not good news, that's great news.

That it is.

(EVIDENCE ALERT BEEPING)

It's a user named Matt_Builder67.

He-he thinks there's something shady

about the Muni Hall deal.

Hi, Matt, it's Sara.

You've got info
on the Muni Hall renovation?

Yeah, my company
put in a bid for that job.

And I know for a fact that we
were a cheaper, better package.

But the contract didn't go to you.

We had it in the bag.

Then, out of nowhere,
it was awarded to Walland.

I don't mean to offend you,
sir, but it sounds

- a little like sour grapes.
- Hey, look, I get paid

by the hour... doesn't matter to me.

But I know that Walland's been involved

in dozens of sketchy deals, and...

wouldn't surprise me
if this one stunk, too.

That's just my two cents.

All right, thank you, Matt.

So, what if someone bribed Simko

to award the contract to Walland?

Well, if he's out there at their offices

at 10:00 at night,
he's not looking at blueprints.

Yeah, maybe he was getting his payoff,

and Bullock witnessed it.

Bullock's riding public transportation.

It's gonna take him a while
to get home from the East Bay.

Gives Simko plenty of time

to drive there and be waiting on him.

- Hey.
- Hey.

Thanks for coming right over.

Yeah.

Simko didn't show up at City Hall today.

Well, if he's following Sophe,
he may already be in the wind.

You think?

Hey. Do you hear that?

(ENGINE RUNNING)

Car engine.

(CAVANAUGH COUGHING)

(RUIZ COUGHING)

This is Lieutenant Ruiz.

I need emergency medical
response at my location.

It's too late.

Hey, Tommy.

So, it turns out
our vic left a suicide note

on his AllSourcer page.

We sure it was him?

The wife seems to think so.

It was an apology, and some details

about their anniversary trip...
stuff only he would know.

He give a reason?

Well, news about the construction bribe

was about to break, and on top of that,

the wife found out about the affair.

So, kind of a perfect storm, you know?

- Thanks, Clay.
- Here you go.

Autopsy report?

Yeah.

Cause of death:

carbon monoxide poisoning.

Well, there's no surprise there.

This is weird, though.

Tox screen shows enough sedative

in Simko's blood to knock out a horse.

Well, we've seen that before.

Someone's afraid to go through with it,

so they take alcohol and pills
to make it easier.

Yeah, but there's no trace
of pills in his stomach.

According to the doc,
that means he was alive

at least 90 minutes
after taking the pills.

And he would never survive that
long with the engine running.

All right, let's run this.

So, all right, a guy gets in his car,

takes a handful of pills.

He would have to start
the engine quickly, right?

- Before he passed out.
- But if that's the case,

then he would be dead
before the pills are digested.

The time line doesn't make sense.

There's only one way it works.

If Simko was already unconscious
for at least an hour...

...then someone else started the car.

CAVANAUGH: There.

What's missing?

Zoom in, right corner of the windshield.

Those Velcro strips.
Toll pass is missing.

It wasn't in his car or his wife's.

SARA: But if Simko didn't have
his pass, then someone else

drove to San Leandro
the night of the murder.

Do you still have access
to his toll pass data?

Unless the user pulled it.

Uh, here. I've still got
last month's billing cycle.

Simko's pass made almost daily trips

across the Golden Gate Bridge.

Inbound in the morning,
out in the evening.

Like traveling into the city from Marin.

That mean anything to you?

Simko's assistant, Joel...
he lives in Kentfield.

And he probably knows enough

about Simko to fake a suicide note.

How long have you lived
up in Marin County, Joel?

Uh, for a year or so.

The commute must suck.

(CHUCKLES): I'm guessing.

Helps, though, if you have
your boss's toll pass, right?

That's what we found in your car.

Guess you had it for a while now.

(EXHALES) Is that what this is about?

That I have Kevin's pass?

He let me use it...
it... it was his idea,

just to save me the tolls every day.

So he was just being nice to you.

And this is how you repay him.

I don't know what you mean.

You handled the incoming bids

to the Muni Hall project
for your boss, didn't you?

Not really. I just passed
all that along to Kevin.

Joel...

we talked to the foreman
at Walland Construction.

He came clean,

admitting to paying you 50 grand

to fix the bids.

And we tossed your apartment, too.

Found Carl Bullock's missing journals

in a Dumpster
in the back of your building.

I-I...

Maybe I should have a lawyer.

You can have all the lawyers you want.

We have everything we need on you.

Carl Bullock saw you, didn't he?

Getting the payoff?

Is that why you killed him?

What the hell was he even doing there?

The guy was insane.

Chasing after lizard men?

You went into his house,

and you shot him.

What about your boss, Joel?

What about Kevin?

He figured it out.

About the bids.

So...

I had no choice.

You're... you're gonna tell
them that I cooperated, right?

That they should go easy on me?

All this destruction for 50 grand?

Not a chance in hell.

(PANTING)

- Hey.
- Hey.

Nice work.

(SIGHS)

What's this?

I got your car washed.

And I can also tell you all the scores

from last weekend's games, so, you know,

you don't have to waste
time watching them.

- (STAMMERS) Hey, don't you dare.
- (LAUGHS)

It would be nice to get a day off.

Yeah, that would be nice, wouldn't it?

But that's not gonna happen.

(EXCITED CHATTER)

Aw.

(EXCITED CHATTER CONTINUES)

We're never gonna have that.

The happy ending.

Jeffrey...

You go.

I'll be there in a sec.

ALEX: So excited.

Hi, honey. How are you?

(KNOCK ON DOOR)

(SIGHS)

Are you going to let me in?

Well, uh... I'm just...

I'm in a zone right now,
and I-I just don't want

to lose it.

(SIGHS HEAVILY)

What did I warn you about,

spinning into a hole by yourself?

I know, I know, I just,
I'm so close, though.

Well, that's great.

But don't push us out.

Let all of us help you.

"All of us"?

Tanner,

we're all trying to find Mia's killer.

That's why we're here.

Yeah. Let's get it right this time.

That's what Sophe's all about.

Well, that's why you built it, isn't it?

ALEX: So let us help you, dum-dum.

- Please.
- (LAUGHS)

And let them bloody help you, too.

JOSH: I've got a photo of the board

ready to post.

Thank you.

Let's get to work.
