Previously on Will Trent...

I can't believe you have a college-aged son.

- How old are you? - How old is your mom?

You are 18 years old.

That is not even close to old enough to be in this club.

Weren't you doing a lot worse? I mean, you had a kid!

I've known you your entire life.

I have high expectations for you.

Jeremy's grown now. What's your next move?

Why is the Georgia Bureau of Investigation

getting involved in a homicide?

Victim's grandfather's a billionaire.

He called the governor, who then called me.

Oh. The governor. That's right.

You have an unreasonable boss, too.

That's your new dog walker. Nico. Sweet kid. Runaway.

You're here because someone sold you to that freak.

I can help you.

Hey, what was that tattoo your girl had on her?

That's Zero Mile. That's the trafficking ring

that Vice has been after for years.

This girl's my shot.

I know that I can get her to turn witness.

Just leave it! We gotta go!

Oh, my God! Please hurry!

What about your mom's? Come on. We can go there.

We're not getting her involved in this!

We're not getting anyone else involved in this!

Hide.

Oh, come on. Please.

Please.

The Governor's been on my ass

to... to buy you a steak and martini,

ever since your team solved the Campano kidnapping.

Not necessary, but always appreciated.

Amanda, would you ask me about the damn rumor already?

Fine. What is it?

I'm retiring.

And I think you should be my replacement.

Wow. I'm honored.

And I agree.

Statewide Director of the GBI is, uh, a beast of a gig.

No time for field work

and more handshakes with Georgia's elite.

Handshakes won't be a problem, sir.

Salut.

Why are you still here? It's late.

We were having fun.

At least one of us was.

All right.

Where's the mozzarella that was in here?

Oh.

Betty and I played a game called "find the cheese"

where I hide a piece of cheese

somewhere in the house and Betty finds it,

and if she doesn't find it, I eat it.

Oh. Guess I'm not having my caprese pasta.

But I'll make a... I don't know...

Carrot and farro salad, I guess.

Oh. Uh...

After we played find the cheese,

I got worried she'd get diarrhea,

so we played "find the carrot."

Okay. Thai takeout. You want to stay?

I'm pretty full from all the cheese and carrots.

See you tomorrow.

Okay, then.

- I'm not co-signing this. - Why not?!

Oh, I don't know, because wandering around Mexico

taking a semester off to smoke pot is just...

I'm studying coral reefs.

Oh. Pah! Okay, yeah. Coral reefer.

You are supposed to be going to college.

Do you have any idea how hard it is to save,

as a single mother...

- Did you hear that? - I don't know.

- What are you doing with that? - I'm helping.

- Don't move! - No, no, no!

Don't shoot don't shoot, don't shoot!

Charles?! What the hell?!

Dad?

Faith, I'm being followed.

I need your help.

Look, I'm... I'm sorry for letting myself in.

I didn't want to risk waiting outside.

And you still keep your key in the... the rafters, so...

So you think you're being followed?

Yeah. I first noticed the car a couple days ago.

It was a silver Lexus.

But this morning, it passed by me three times.

Are you sure they weren't just looking for parking?

Faith, the same car was outside my work when I got off,

and then it followed me home.

Charles, why would somebody be following you?

I don't know!

Okay. Did you get a plate number?

No, it didn't have plates.

- That's pretty creepy. - Shh.

And then someone tried to reset the password

on my e-mail account, too.

Yeah, that happens to me about once a month.

You think I'm crazy, don't you?

- Are you taking your meds? - Yes.

And I've been going to my veterans group twice a week.

Maybe I am crazy. I don't know.

But tonight I saw the same car parked

a block away from my place!

Faith, you're the most sane person I've ever met.

Please, if you take a look and it's nothing,

we can go get an emergency prescription

of antipsychotics right now.

Please.

And you're still working at the hotel?

Yes. The Cavinridge. Five years this May.

Okay. We'll swing by your place and check it out.

Okay.

- Not you. - Nuh-unh.

Eat your pizza and go back to your dorm. We got this.

All right. I drove around the block. No silver sedans.

Thanks for coming, Will. This is Charles.

- He's Jeremy's father. - Hey.

Great to meet you.

Um, let's check out your place. Is it...?

Uh, no, uh, that's me.

I rent the room over the garage.

Oh, an ADU? How many square feet?

Okay, can we geek out about home improvements later?

I'm missing The Bachelorette for this.

Wow.

Bathroom's clear.

Anything out of place?

No, it looks okay.

You typically leave the blinds closed all day?

No, I-I leave it open so the plants can get light.

You seem like a tidy person. There's dirt on the floor.

No, that's... that's not right. I-I just vacuumed this morning.

Well, somebody was in here.

And they were standing right here.

What do you see from there?

Just the house below.

Who lives there?

Sally and Kevin, my landlords.

Maybe whoever was here wasn't here for you after all.

Let's go check on Sally and Kevin.

- Oh, my God. - Charles!

Charles!

Oh, my God.

She had your card on her.

Yep, she's testifying for us against a sex trafficker...

Matty Ellwood. What happened?

Picked her up trying to make a heroin buy.

But she told me not to call you because you

"ruin lives for sick thrills."

"Sick" thrills?

Hurtful, I know.

Can I release her in your custody?

Thanks, Wirth.

Katie.

Do you know how many days it's been?

You left me to rot.

That is a nice safehouse. All the good junk food.

Everything you could want... Except heroin, I guess.

Well, the heroin's important, actually.

That's why Matty gave it to me.

Yeah, you know what? I know that it's important, actually.

I do. I get it. Are you making it to meetings?

- Every day. - Yeah?

Leaves me with the other 23 hours to sit around and think.

Hey. Think about this. Think about this.

What you're doing matters. You are putting Matty in jail.

Your testimony, you and me,

we are taking a sex trafficker off the streets.

Think about that.

There's this girl, Jade.

And before I knew how bad my situation was,

I convinced Jade that she should hang out with Matty, too.

And I can't stop thinking about how she's still out there.

And I don't know

- how I'm supposed to go on. - I know.

I don't know how I'm supposed to do... do this.

I know. I get it. It's hard.

She's really young.

How young?

She said she was 15.

I-I need... I need Jade to be safe.

That's the only way I can do this,

is if you promise me that Jade will be safe.

I will go get her.

I promise. Okay?

Charles, why would somebody be after you?

There has to be a reason.

They were following me.

Sally and Kevin are dead because of me.

Okay. Okay. Come here.

You're okay.

Big, big mess here.

The perp had been following Charles,

who was living in their garage.

Something caused the perp to switch his focus

- to the two of them. - Want me to tell you what I see,

or would you like to do the thing you do?

Just the single shot for the two of them?

And, uh... no signs of sexual assault, right?

Nope.

All right.

They were packing their bags to get out of town.

They knew they were in trouble.

We're not getting her involved in this!

Hide.

Come on.

- Perp came in. - Please.

Shot him right away.

Then he tied her up.

Judging by the state of the house,

he was looking for something.

He hurt her to try to get her to talk.

You think she gave up what the perp was looking for?

Nah.

If she had, he would've finished her off with a gunshot.

She bled out.

What was she protecting that was worth dying for?

Maybe she knew she was gonna die no matter what.

Still took a lot of guts to keep quiet.

That's strange.

Her hand's pretty clean aside from the blood

on her fingertip.

Maybe she was trying to tell us something.

Sally drew this star with her own blood.

What do you think it means?

She wanted us to find it. That's all I know.

So Charles just breezes back into your life

and drops a dead body at your feet, huh?

Two, actually.

It's always something with this guy.

Amanda. It's been 19 years. Can you give it a rest?

However we got here, we have a double homicide.

The intruder was after Charles' landlord, Sally Wallace.

She's a software engineer at the tech company Selantus.

Selantus? You're kidding.

Why does that sound so familiar?

They design and manage all of our electronic systems.

Case files, suspect database. They even run our payroll.

We should, uh, poke around Selantus, ask some questions.

Maybe "star" was a project Sally was working on.

Yeah, but tread carefully.

They're important partners for us.

Always.

So, where's Charles staying?

With me.

In Jeremy's old room. Until I figure all this out.

- Well, that's convenient. - What does that mean?

It means you just got one kid out of the house.

Don't let him put another baby in you.

Amanda, why don't you mind your business?!

Come on. We're leaving.

Ohh! What is wrong with her?!

I mean, where do you want to start?

I was 15 years old. We both were.

And if I hadn't made that mistake,

then I wouldn't have had Jeremy.

Do you think Jeremy is a mistake?!

- I support all your choices. - Thank you.

You wanna know who doesn't support my choices?

My mother. And "Auntie Mandy."

Mandy?

That two-headed terrifying cop monster.

That's why I didn't tell them

until I was seven months pregnant.

Is there something I should be saying right now,

or do you need me to just listen?

Where do they get off criticizing Charles?

She and my mom were the ones who told him to leave me alone,

and that is why he enlisted.

That's why he went to Afghanistan...

and that is why he has PTSD.

Well, uh, seemed like a great guy to me.

Should we go solve this thing so he can get on with his life?

Yes. Great idea. Thank you.

This is Selantus?

They trying to keep people out or in?

Special Agents Trent and Mitchell with the GBI.

We have a warrant to search the workspace of Sally Wallace.

Hi. Uh, Vince Arrigotti, Head of Software.

Did I hear you say you're GBI?

That's right.

Is everything okay with Sally?

She didn't show up for work this morning.

Sally was killed last night in a home invasion.

What?

Sally was one of the best.

Terrific coder. Friendly face.

Sorry. I'm... I'm just...

I'm just still trying to process all this.

It's shocking. I know.

Well, she kept things orderly.

Yeah, our... our cleaning crew comes through every weeknight.

They're very thorough.

She, uh, didn't carry any notebooks?

No binders or folders?

No. Our entire office went paperless a few years ago.

That's a whole lot of pens for someone with no paper.

Then we'll need a copy of her e-mail box

and any internal messaging systems you may have.

Anything you need, we'll get it for you.

I'm Reese Fox, Selantus CEO.

Reese, this is Will Trent and Faith Mitchell.

They're from the GBI.

If there are any questions we can answer about Sally

or whatever you're looking for, please fire away.

No, we're good for now. Thanks.

They were trying to figure out what we knew.

I don't like this place at all.

Yeah, me neither. But you got to hand it to 'em.

That software is so much nicer than APD's.

It's like if a Swedish design firm

decided to make life easier for cops.

- Can I get two bananas? - Yeah.

- You have matcha? - Mnh-mnh.

Just the bananas.

That guy Vince knew our full names. We never told him.

You think Amanda gave them the heads-up?

Without running it by us first?

It would've given them time to clean up Sally's desk,

but what would they be hiding?

You do not need to babysit my diabetes.

I had breakfast this morning and everything.

You want the free banana or not?

Huh.

That's disappointing.

Hey, Will?

What is it?

Tech conference last weekend.

Selantus was a sponsor.

Will, it was held at the Cavinridge Hotel.

That's where Charles works.

Yeah, uh, Charles' key card was used during the conference.

I already talked to the GBI about this.

No, you didn't. We're the GBI.

Uh, yes, I did.

Someone called wanting to know what staff key card was used

to open the room during the conference.

I gave them Charles' name.

- That wasn't the GBI. - Yes, it was.

And I remember because I was saying, "FBI?"

And he said, "No. GBI."

Well, you were lied to.

Okay, Charles was out of town last weekend,

so he couldn't have used his key card.

Do you have video?

Uh, yeah.

Someone's impersonating us now.

Yeah, I'm flattered.

Here we are.

That's Sally.

She must have stolen Charles' card while he was out of town.

Whose room is that?

Well, it was part of a block of rooms

for the conference booked by...

Selantus Security.

Well, whatever Sally took, that's what they're looking for.

Mm-hmm.

♪ Yeah, yeah, baby, baby ♪

See, I used to work the griddle. Great skill to have.

And soothing, too, when the world goes to hell.

Yeah, I can make a good frozen burrito, so...

Oh, okay.

Well, a kid your age should know how to make five meals.

- I can teach you. - Yeah!

- Yeah? - That'd be dope.

- All right, man. - Hey, there.

- Oh, hey. - Hey.

Uh, I hope you don't mind, uh, breakfast for dinner.

I do not mind.

The kitchen looks good.

Yeah. Yeah, yeah. I-I-I cleaned.

So, any leads?

♪ Trust me you haven't lived ♪

Uh...

in a minute.

♪ How simple it could be ♪

Let me eat my plate.

Oh. Yeah, yeah.

All right.

♪ Until you love somebody ♪

♪ How simple it could be ♪

Oh, uh...

nice, um, space.

You should get a plant.

Maybe some art. A few more square feet.

Well, I have Tim's gross microwave he left behind.

Man liked to reheat a lot of soup, apparently.

So, did you, uh, ask Charles about the star?

Yeah. He can't think of anything it can mean.

But get this. You know how he was out of town last weekend?

It was because Kevin gave him tickets

to a music festival for his birthday.

Kevin arranged for Charles to be gone

so that he and Sally could use the hotel key.

Do we think Kevin put her up to it?

The analyst pool is putting together a Kevin profile,

but Charles says he's just a guy who works at a coffee shop.

Sally had the career. Kevin just liked

- to hang out and read. - Hmm.

Good morning, Special Agents!

Sorry.

Uh, hi. I am Rocky Angelina.

I'm with digital forensics. I've been assigned to your case.

I was able to extract

a digital backup of your victim's cellphone.

Let me show you.

Okay.

So, here, you have texts, contacts,

browsing history... you name it.

Can you search the word "star"?

You bet.

Okay. Over 10,000 hits.

How about the, um, star symbol thing?

I think he means the emoji.

- Yeah. - Right.

Ooh. Good instinct. Look at this.

One of Sally's contacts

is just the star emoji and a phone number.

Let's call it.

Hello? This is Special Agent Will Trent with the GBI. Who's this?

Whoa!

Who was that?

Who indeed, Rocky?

You're not in Vice anymore, Ang.

Why don't you just let them handle it?

Vice is six weeks backlogged, and this is time-sensitive.

We could lose this case against this dude

that is trafficking both of these girls.

"Matty"? That's a red flag right there.

Even I knew when to give up "Mikey."

You could still pull off "Mikey."

I don't know if you mean that in a good way.

Listen. I got a tip. I know where she's being pimped out of.

Come on. Let's just go do this ourselves.

You got a warrant? What, is she on a wire or something?

Nope.

So... what? We just come up with an excuse to knock on the door?

Yup.

And whatever happens happens?

- Yup. - Okay. I'm in.

Check this out. I taught Betty a new trick.

It's called The Moment.

Hey, Betty, are you the moment?

Yes! She is the moment!

Wow, Betty. Stunning as always.

Nico, did you take $20 from my wallet?

What? No.

Two days ago, I had $74 in my wallet.

Three 20s, one 10, and four singles,

all facing the same direction.

It's compulsive, I know. But you can't steal from me.

I know where everything in this house is.

Now, I'm gonna ask you again.

Did you take $20 out of my wallet?

Whatever. You can afford it.

Nico, if you need money, just ask.

What's going on?

I don't need any favors.

I didn't ask for this job.

Let's just make this easy.

I quit.

Yeah. Rough.

Okay. Don't freak out.

What is it?

I took him to Piedmont Park just to, like, walk around,

you know, touch grass.

- It was good, but... - What?

Charles?

Are you okay?

Someone was here.

What makes you say that?

It's off. The house. It... It...

I can't explain it. It just smells different.

Did you notice anything?

It smells normal to me.

All right. All right.

Let's clear the house, and if we need to,

I will have APD come and send a patrol car

to watch the front door.

- Okay? - Mm-hmm.

Faith, I'm sorry.

I just don't know what's real and what's not anymore.

You're good.

Yeah?

We're okay, but somebody broke into my house.

Someone's following me.

What? Where are you?

I'll call you back.

Hey!

Why are you following me?!

Jess Noonan. I'm a reporter for the Atlanta Star Standard.

You're star.

Can we go somewhere to talk?

You have to promise me that you tell no one about this.

Not your therapist, not your mom,

and, for sure, no case notes... Not until this is over.

Unless you want another dead body to clean up.

Okay. Talk to us about Sally.

She was a whistleblower?

Sally and I went to college together.

I hadn't seen her in a while,

but she came to me a few weeks ago with a tip.

There is a back door in the software

that Selantus designed for the GBI.

Record searches, logged evidence,

house calls, case notes.

They're spying on you.

That would explain why they knew we were coming to their office.

Who's using this?

Look up the investors for Selantus.

It's every inner-circle old boy in Atlanta.

So you're saying that people are paying to find out

what the GBI knows and when?

It's incredibly valuable information.

Does anyone know about you?

I haven't told anyone at the paper.

Reese Fox, CEO of Selantus?

She donates to my editor's cancer charity. They brunch.

So, what were you gonna do with Sally's information?

I told her she had to get me the actual code on a hard drive,

something that no one could deny, then I would publish.

The next time that I heard from her

was when she mailed me this key with a note

that said she'd call me to tell me what it opens.

But someone got to her first.

We knew Selantus would want the hard drive back.

But I never thought that they would murder her for it.

If what you're saying is true

and Selantus is selling GBI intelligence,

then they would need to protect their clients.

And the only way we can prove that you're right

is with that hard drive, but we don't know

where Sally hid it or what that key goes to.

- You have to find out. - Here's what we're gonna do.

We're gonna take you to the GBI, where we can keep you safe.

You think that the GBI is safe?

Belly of the beast.

I can take care of myself.

Don't use your computer or your phone,

anything with Selantus software installed.

If you want to stay alive...

trust no one.

♪ Give me the night ♪

♪ Give me the night ♪

- What the hell happened? - Give me your phone.

Why'd you just put my phone in a dirty microwave?

- This is a clean room. - Should I go get my tinfoil hat?

Selantus is wiretapping the GBI

with the software they made for us.

D-Do you have proof?

We have the dead body of the reporter who was working

with Sally, the whistleblower, who is also dead.

We also have a threatening note

that someone left in my house last night.

Selantus knew we were coming to their office.

They've been one step ahead.

Someone's even impersonating the GBI on the phone.

- Guys... - Rocky, come in. Close the door.

Sorry to be rude. I-I've been calling over and over.

- This is a clean room. - Cool.

I want to let you know someone is doing maintenance

on the computer servers,

- And it's fishy. - Fishy how?

Well, I talked to everyone who's on duty with IT,

and no one knows who's doing it. That's weird.

Selantus is scrubbing the code.

They're covering their tracks. Thanks, Rocky.

Amanda, you got to shut it down.

Okay, listen. Let me talk to Director Armstrong.

I've got to give him a heads-up.

No. Absolutely not. He might be a part of this.

- Excuse me? - You can't trust him, okay?

The guys on that level, they're all playing the same game.

What if I'm on that level someday, Will?

I-Is this what you're gonna think of me?

Is that what this is about? Protecting your final promotion?

Whoa, guys! Same team. We got to figure out a call here.

Hi. Um, ma'am...

Director Armstrong is in your office.

I'm gonna go talk to my boss.

Caroline, will you please get my phone out of the microwave?

Uh, Special Agent Mitchell, Charles is on his way up.

And, um, Special Agent Trent, I had someone pick up

a fresh suit for you, as you requested.

Thank you, Caroline.

You had Caroline send someone to your house?

You have a really unhealthy attachment to your suits.

- You know that? - Yes. I do.

Hm.

I pulled the case file.

Your people think last night's shooting

is linked to the Selantus home invasion?

My people think Selantus is doing the shooting.

Amanda, that's insane.

There has to be something else going on here.

- Who's telling you this? - I've got Trent on it.

And you support what he's saying?

Sir, do you remember how I investigated Lorne Renfield

for fraud a few years ago?

He's on the Board of Selantus.

Do you have a question for me?

His defense against my investigation

was the most impressive I'd ever seen.

It was as though he knew my playbook

the minute I put it out on the server.

Let it go. You didn't have a case.

Maybe he got a little greedy,

cut a corner on his quarterly filings,

but he didn't break any laws.

And now he knows that you're watching him.

Well, I'd say we're watching each other.

It's checks and balances.

The system of law enforcement

works exactly how it was designed to.

Of course. You're right.

Good.

- So? - This is Sally's P.O. box key.

I checked it a few times for her when she went on vacation.

That's where she hid the hard drive. We need to get to it.

Oh, I can send you the box number.

If they're wiping the computers, that hard drive

is the only remaining evidence that a back door ever existed.

What are you doing?!

I just e-mailed you the box number.

Why did he have a cellphone? This is a clean room.

What's a clean room?

You think Selantus is reading our e-mails?

Jess specifically said not to use our cellphones.

We should assume they can see everything.

We need to get to that mailbox before they do.

Hey! What's going on? My computer stopped working!

I believe you. Now go solve this thing before we lose our jobs.

Try rebooting your system.

So, Katie says the way this works

is that Matty says he's gonna introduce the girl

to his "producer" friend,

and then he leaves them alone, and some amazing role

rests on what she's willing to do with him.

Ah, that seems legit.

You sure you wanna do this?

The girl doesn't talk, this guy's gonna have us by the ass.

I will get her to talk. I will.

- Can I help you? - Yeah, APD.

We were passing by and heard a scream.

What? No. Wasn't from in here.

Try next door. They do waxing.

You know what?

We're gonna need to take a look around.

We'll be out of your hair in two minutes.

No! Get a warrant!

Nah, we have probable cause.

This is a Fourth Amendment violation. There was no scream.

You sure? You have a security camera you can check?

Dang it. Looks like this is the only one.

What do you use this puppy for, huh?

- Where's Jade? - Hey, that's a private office!

Ah, ah, ah, ah.

Hey! Yo! Get off of her. Get the hell off of her!

Let's go.

This is a casting session. We're talking about a role.

Jade. Your name is Jade, right?

I'm Angie Polaski. I'm APD. I want to help you.

Matty said this is my big break.

All right. Arms up, please.

Courtesy of Matty, right?

Listen. I don't want to take you in for this.

I don't want to take you in at all.

I want you to leave, willingly.

Everyone is gonna be so pissed at me.

Matty's going to jail.

Your friend Katie's gonna make sure of it.

She just wanted you to be safe first.

Guess she's jealous.

I will sue the department! Who's your captain?

Get your hand off that phone, sit down, and shut up!

Listen to me.

Matty is lying. He's not an agent.

He's not legit.

He sold Katie.

He sold her to a violent sex offender,

and he's gonna do the same thing to you next.

Did he give you a tattoo?

He gives them to all his girls.

Let me see.

I've seen a lot of these.

Not on actors or models.

The last one I saw was on an O.D. at the morgue.

Please.

Please. Just tell me.

Is Matty forcing you to have sex with these men?

I'm an actress.

I'm gonna be famous.

Not like this.

Not like this.

Just tell me, Jade.

Is he forcing you? Yes or no?

Yeah? Okay.

Okay. Thank you.

Let's get you out of here. Come on.

Silver Lexus.

Just help me. Help me help you.

I'm just trying to get into this box.

It's Vince.

- Freeze! GBI! - Oh, my God!

- He's got a gun! - Get down!

Find the box. Can you open this door?

- Yeah, yeah. - Got it.

- Everybody get down! - He has the hard drive.

Move! Move!

Vince, you don't have to do this.

Give us the hard drive, and we can end this.

- That didn't work. - Yeah, no.

Your computers will be operational again

once we know the situation is secure.

Amanda, you cannot unilaterally shut down the GBI.

- Sir... - Frankly, I'm shocked

that you'd jeopardize your future.

What does my future have to do with this?

You're not taking this personally, are you?

Just fix it.

Come here! Come here! Come here!

No!

Open it. Open the door! Open the door!

Stay down! Stay down!

Vince, we know you were spying on the GBI, all right?

There's no hiding it.

You don't know anything.

What I do know is whatever Selantus promised you

is not worth dying for.

You're under arrest.

We were able to tie Vince Arrigotti's gun

to each of the crime scenes.

He killed three people.

And now he's in a jail cell refusing to talk,

hiding behind the best lawyers in Georgia.

So who told Vince to tamper with the GBI code?

With due respect, Vince was stealing secrets, yes,

but they were our secrets.

We looked into it, and we found that Vince was stealing

the code that made our GBI operating system

so fast and easy to use.

We think he was selling it to one of our competitors.

Are you kidding me?

You think he killed three people

over the secret of your pretty software?

He was accessing GBI case data

and selling it to the highest bidder.

Vince had a background in Army Intelligence.

Sometimes, that experience can desensitize people.

- You are full of... - Faith.

Reese, we'll need to complete our own forensic analysis

of the GBI system to confirm your findings.

- Of course, Director Armstrong. - You won't find anything.

That's what the server maintenance was about, right?

They cleaned up all their tracks.

The only proof we had of a back door

evaporated when Vince destroyed that hard drive.

That's offensive speculation, Special Agent Trent.

- So shoot me. - I think we're done here.

This has been a very unfortunate chapter

for your company, Reese.

There will have to be consequences.

We'll be tightening hiring practices, background checks...

I think what the director means is that the GBI

- is severing its relationship with Selantus, - effective immediately.

Is that what you meant, Director Armstrong?

If Wagner's assessment is that the trust has been broken...

It is.

Then, yes, we will have to move on.

So... what's next?

Oh. I found a new place.

Yeah, feels like the right thing to do.

Oh, and I talked Jeremy out of the semester in Mexico.

How did you do that?

Oh, we... we made plans. You know?

And he decided that he wanted to stick around, so it's cool.

Hey.

I am so sorry about how everything played out back then.

My mom and dad and Amanda.

I should have stood up for you.

No. No. Are you crazy?

No. We were young.

You were young. I was young.

And to be honest, I thought your family was doing me a favor

by telling me to stay away.

It was only when I joined up that I...

I started realizing what I was missing.

Yeah.

You know, sometimes I wonder if we could've...

Um, got married?

- No. - Lived happily ever after?

No, but J is a great kid.

Like, you did that, and that's all you.

- Okay. - Yeah.

You think you can teach Jeremy how to make those pancakes?

Oh, yeah.

That, roasted chicken, risotto, pineapple upside down cake.

Listen, woman, it's being planned, okay?

It's all planned.

- Okay. - I got you.

Okay.

You know I had to get plants that didn't need light,

'cause your windows...

This is adorable.

- Thank you. - Yeah. You know, it's all love.

So, we're gonna get you set up at the safehouse with Katie.

Just eat something first, please.

It's honestly not that bad.

Hey. I thought you were gonna look after the kid.

Which kid? Those kids?

- No. Nico. - Sup, scumbag?

Your fly is down. Made you look.

- What happened? - Nico got into a fight.

Or more like they got their ass handed to them.

You should see the other guy.

It's like he just got out of a day spa.

You should know that my record

for waiting for a suspect to talk is 23 hours.

I got nothing but time.

Not true.

You've got one hour till Betty poops on your rug.

I'll buy another rug.

Unless you stole more money from me on your way out.

What's going on, Nico?

Does this have anything to do with why you needed money?

Who beat you up?

Nico, you can talk to me.

Guy named Troy.

I'm not kidding.

That's his name.

Troy.

He lives downstairs.

Simple extortion situation.

20 bucks buys me 24 hours.

What's Troy's last name?

You know, we're not close.

What's his story?

What else is he involved in?

Can we move on from Troy?

All you had to do was tell me.

Seems like you need to get out of your living situation.

That's a great idea.

I think I'll rent a penthouse in Buckhead.

I have another idea.

I'm sorry. W-What's an ADU?

We are turning the garage into a bedroom.

Nico's gonna help.

And live there.

But you're also gonna work your ass off.

Wow. First the dog, now Nico.

Opening your own group home.

We gotta stop at Home Depot.

What about dinner?
