-I know, I know, I went over Everything with the doctor.

Lane, he suggested we Shut down the beaches

As a precaution.

-no, the lagoon appears To be the only area

Of significant contamination.

-well, there's a storm Drain about 20 feet

From the entrance of the lagoon.

A lot of the time After a heavy rain

Polluters will just Dump into a storm drain.

The runoff carries It out into the bay

And makes it virtually Impossible for 'em to trace.

-well, I put in A call to the epa,

They said they'd send out A team of investigators.

On a bunch of Government bureaucrats.

These guys are Gonna come out here,

They're gonna ask A lot of questions,

They're gonna take A lot of memos,

And they're gonna move On to the next case.

[buzzing]

Okay, thank you for calling.

[buzzing]

Baywatch.

Yeah.

Okay.

Uh-huh.

-alright, what do we know About transicon industries?

Is this their first spill?

-what difference Does that make, mitch?

It wasn't intentional, It was lane.

He took the law right Into his own hands.

-lane went there to get Evidence to bust these guys.

There's no way he'd Intentionally create A toxic spill.

-and there's no Way that transicon

Is going to intentionally Blow up its own facility.

-come on, you worked with Lane brody for 10 years.

-mitch, the point is we Haven't seen any evidence

To even suggest that Lane was set up.

Not that I'm ruling that Out as a possibility,

But the fact remains lane Was trained in the navy

To use explosives.

-the lab just gave A positive I.D.

On the substance we Found in the lagoon.

It's called az-47, And it's a pesticide.

Or I should say it Was a pesticide.

-what do you mean?

-it's been banned by the Department of agriculture.

It hasn't been produced in This country for over 15 years.

-15 years?

-and all of a sudden it Ends up in our backyard?

-and of course, at this Point, it's almost academic,

I mean, we're gonna have to Clean up the entire shoreline

After this spill, anyway.

[phone ringing]

-buchannon.

Yes, yeah, I'm there.

He's out of the coma.

[bright music]

Turns out the priest is not Cooperating with the police.

He won't even give his name.

-what do you think Playa del sol means?

-the area around the lagoon

Used to be called Playa del sol.

Before they built those Million dollar homes,

It was a landfill.

-what's that?

[paper rustling]

-that's what they Got from lane.

The nurse called it in.

-what is this, it's some Kind of a code, what's it for?

-I don't know, that's all She wrote, just those numbers.

-well do you think this has Something to do with transicon?

-yeah.

-well, did you Tell the police?

-no.

-I really hope that You're not thinking about

Conducting this Investigation on your own.

-shauni, before the police Get a search warrant together

Those files could be destroyed.

-mitch, that's crazy!

No way, forget it, You're not doing it.

At least not without me.

-no, you can forget that.

-no, I won't forget it!

Look, lane is somebody That I admire very much.

And right now it's his Word against transicon's.

He can still be sent to Prison for that bombing

Unless we prove that They framed him.

And you want to Know something else?

I am really getting sick And tired of companies

Like transicon dumping Their crap in my water.

Enough is enough!

If we don't stand up To them, who will?
