00:01Previously on The Rookie Feds...
00:03Where's your daughter that came through?
00:04That's my baby girl.
00:05Fortune! Hey!
00:07How do you two know each other?
00:08He arrested my mother a while back.
00:10I've got to run, but if you need anything,
00:12anything at all, find me.
00:15Asked for her by name, huh?
00:16Well, you said to come back if I needed anything.
00:19Would you like to go on a date with me?
00:21I would.
00:21Are you free on Saturday night?
00:23Are you asking me out on a date?
00:24Figuring out a way to let me down easy?
00:27I'm just wondering what took you so long.
00:28I was the one incarcerated for a crime I didn't commit.
00:32How did you stay sane?
00:34Fighting to get home.
00:36To you.
00:37To your mother.
00:38You know, I took that settlement money from the LAPD
00:42and invested it into the community.
00:45And the help that I've been able to provide,
00:47you know, the people going through the same struggle.
00:49You helped a lot of people, Daddy. I know.
00:54Ah! Ah!
01:02Please.
01:04I'm sorry.
01:06I am so, so sorry for what I did.
01:09I can make it up to you, though.
01:10No! No! No! No!
01:24They told me you were here.
01:26Are you okay?
01:27Totally fine.
01:28But you left your sweater in my car last night.
01:31I figured you might need it.
01:32That was thoughtful. Thank you.
01:34But what happened to your head?
01:35Nothing.
01:36But just returning a sweater doesn't give us as much time to hang.
01:39But if I'm hurt, a nurse has to check me out.
01:42Oh.
01:52Sorry.
01:53Gotta get that.
01:56Oh, no.
01:57Safe Surrender Baby just got dropped off.
02:06See you after work.
02:08Daddy, your garage is like a full-on time capsule.
02:11I found a box of my favorite jeans from high school.
02:14I guess they're antiques now.
02:16Watch your mouth.
02:17They're more like vintage.
02:19But what's in this box?
02:21It was locked, so I couldn't open it.
02:23And I want to see if some of my stuff is in here.
02:25Why are you digging through my stuff?
02:27I'm not digging through your stuff.
02:29I just wanted to make space in the garage,
02:31and I thought this box looked interesting.
02:34And by your reaction, it's real interesting.
02:37Simone, put it back. Now.
02:40Sorry, Daddy.
02:42What's in it?
02:48Hey, boss.
02:51I'll be right there.
02:53We gonna finish this when I get home.
03:10So, at first, I'm thinking it's something embarrassing.
03:14Maybe a photo or something from his old funk band days,
03:17but I don't know.
03:18He's just being really weird about it.
03:20Are you gonna open it?
03:21I want to, but he's got a right to his privacy.
03:24Plus, what if it's some cursed family heirloom?
03:26I don't want that juju getting on me.
03:29Ah, it's about time you probies showed up.
03:31Oh, yeah. Sorry, I was in hot yoga.
03:33The humidity doesn't number on my self-service.
03:36And I got a possible cursed mystery box situation at home,
03:39so what's the case, boss?
03:42It's a homicide I pulled from LAPD.
03:44It's a male victim tortured and then killed.
03:47The victim's wallet was taken, no ID,
03:49so ERT used a mobile fingerprint unit.
03:52His name's Paul Morrison.
03:54He's an investment banker, and he was killed six years ago.
03:58Six years ago?
04:00Looks like this guy was breathing six hours ago.
04:03Exactly.
04:04His wife, Vanessa, was tried and convicted for his murder
04:08back in 2016.
04:09As a former defense attorney,
04:11murder convictions without a body is no easy feat.
04:13It must have been an ironclad circumstantial
04:15and forensics case against her.
04:17Which was dead wrong.
04:18This woman's been locked up all this time
04:20for a crime she didn't commit?
04:22Not quite. Vanessa was paroled two weeks ago.
04:24Double jeopardy. Oh, my God.
04:26So the husband fakes his death, pins it on her,
04:29she gets out, tracks him down, tortures him, then murders him.
04:32Yeah, but she can't go to prison again
04:34because she's already been convicted for that crime.
04:36Says the former actor who clearly watches way too many movies.
04:39That's not how the double jeopardy clause works.
04:41Vanessa's conviction of murdering her husband six years ago
04:43will get overturned.
04:44If she killed him this morning, that's a separate case
04:47with different circumstances, i.e. new crime.
04:49Yeah, if Vanessa did this, she is going back to prison,
04:52most likely for the rest of her life.
04:53We don't have proof that Vanessa was involved,
04:55so in the meantime, while I contact her parole officer,
04:58why don't you and Brenda go find out what this Paul
05:00has been doing for the last six years,
05:01because people don't just disappear for no reason.
05:03Okay.
05:05You guys, contact is next of kin.
05:08It's his sister Donna.
05:09She is either in on this,
05:11or she's about to get a death notification for her big brother
05:14for the second time.
05:17You're wrong.
05:18My brother's been dead for over six years.
05:20I know it's hard to believe,
05:23but the fingerprints match.
05:25It's him.
05:26It's your brother.
05:31But we had a funeral for him.
05:33You've been raising his son, no?
05:35Sammy.
05:36Yeah.
05:38How do I tell him about this?
05:41I mean, how could he just abandon Sammy like that?
05:44How could he let Vanessa go to prison?
05:47Oh, my God.
05:49Vanessa.
05:51She was right.
05:52She was right about what?
05:53She came by my house last week.
05:54Hold on.
05:55One of the stipulations of a parole is
05:56she's not to contact you nor Sammy.
05:58Yes, but Vanessa begged me to see him,
06:01and I started asking him if he'd seen his father.
06:03He sounded like a crazy person.
06:06Do you think she did this?
06:08When you're treated a certain kind of way,
06:11you become a certain kind of person.
06:13Six years behind bars
06:15gives you a lot of time to plot revenge.
06:17If it was me, I would want my son back,
06:20especially if I was told I could never see him again.
06:24Where is Sammy right now?
06:26He's at soccer practice.
06:27Go. Go find Sammy and make sure that he's safe.
06:32This is the longest you've ever been quiet.
06:38Sammy lost his mom and dad when he was 6.
06:41He's 12 now.
06:43He spent his most formative years
06:45thinking that his mother killed his father.
06:49Just, my heart aches for him, Clark.
06:52You were young, too, when your pops went to prison.
06:54Yeah.
06:55How'd you manage?
06:56It took us years of work to get to where we are now,
06:59but at least when my dad was incarcerated,
07:01I had my mama.
07:03She held the family together.
07:05Sammy didn't have any of that.
07:07No, he has to relive his father's death all over again.
07:10Oh, my God.
07:13It's too much for a young child to bear.
07:18Violent physical contact of an extended duration
07:21could result in multiple fibers
07:23that are also damaged in a...
07:25Pro tip, you want to make sure that camera's recording.
07:28Damn it.
07:29Sorry.
07:30What are you doing?
07:32I was asked to make an instructional video
07:34for new agent trainees at Quantico
07:36about carpet fiber analysis.
07:38They want it like yesterday
07:39and somehow expect me to shoot and edit it
07:42on top of my actual workload.
07:44Then it's great that you weren't recording
07:46because you want to always light these things from the side.
07:50Front lighting, terrible.
07:52You really want to start the day by telling me I look terrible?
07:55You look amazing, always.
07:57The lighting's terrible.
08:00Can I help?
08:01What? Be my director?
08:03Don't seem so shocked, okay?
08:05I directed two episodes of Vampire Couple, have you know?
08:08My choice of Chiaroscuro was mentioned in Fangoria.
08:13Uh, we just picked up an odd case,
08:15but I-I can come back tonight
08:17and very easily shoot this for you.
08:19I appreciate the offer, Brendan,
08:21but it's not that serious. It's a simple video.
08:23Do you trust me?
08:26Let me take care of everything.
08:28All right.
08:29So what's this odd case of yours?
08:31Uh, it's a homicide.
08:32Victim's name is Paul Morrison.
08:35Emmy's sending over his clothes for you to look at.
08:38Maybe just have a peek.
08:39Maybe there's some errant carpet fibers or something.
08:41Don't mock my work.
08:43I'm sorry.
08:44Go away.
08:45I'll see you tonight.
08:57I don't see him.
09:00There.
09:02With Vanessa.
09:05Be ready, but don't draw.
09:07Kids.
09:08Vanessa? FBI.
09:10We need to talk.
09:11You all right, Sammy?
09:12He's fine. He's with his mother.
09:14You have every right to protect your baby.
09:17Don't make this something he can't unsee.
09:21I love you, Sammy.
09:24Sammy?
09:25My name is Miss Simone.
09:26We're gonna go call your Auntie Donna, okay?
09:28Give me a break.
09:30I just want to see my son.
09:31This isn't about your parole terms.
09:33You're under arrest for the murder of Paul Morrison.
09:35We found his body this morning.
09:40Feels the light, boss.
09:43I'm sorry, Sammy.
09:45I'm sorry.
09:47Feels the light, boss.
10:00This bastard lied.
10:02What are you guys doing?
10:03Getting schooled over by a dead man for the second time.
10:06I know. It's confusing.
10:08Okay. Calling security.
10:10Don't worry about it.
10:11Just so you know,
10:13this ain't personal.
10:17Let's go.
10:26Let's roll.
10:32This is crap, and you both know it.
10:34Tell us your whereabouts from 4 to 8 this morning.
10:36It doesn't matter.
10:38You're just gonna pin Paul's murder on me.
10:40Again.
10:41That was a gross miscarriage of justice.
10:43But I can promise you,
10:44we simply want to get to the bottom of it.
10:46What happened six years ago,
10:48and today.
10:51Please.
11:00Imagine being convicted of something
11:03you had no part in doing.
11:05First, it just feels surreal.
11:07Give it time.
11:09These are professional lawyers and police detectives.
11:12They'll find the truth.
11:14Then it dawns on you.
11:16They want to close the case.
11:18They want to move on.
11:20Did you always believe Paul faked his death?
11:22Not at first.
11:23But in hindsight, there were signs.
11:26Like what?
11:27Paul was an investment banker,
11:28so, you know, he made good money.
11:30But at some point, he started making
11:32extravagant purchases.
11:34Sports car.
11:35Lake house.
11:36Fancy watches.
11:37Did you notice any other changes?
11:38He was stressed.
11:39Started taking calls all hours.
11:41Weekends.
11:42Did he give you any explanation?
11:44He said he had a high-profile client.
11:46But he calls with legitimate banking questions
11:48at 2 in the morning.
11:492 in the morning?
11:50Okay, so what?
11:51So you're thinking he took on somebody shady?
11:53And got in too deep,
11:55so he faked his death to disappear.
11:57Which is bad enough.
11:59But why did he have to make it look like I killed him?
12:02He left his blood in the kitchen.
12:05In the trunk of my car.
12:06Which gives you a powerful motive.
12:08Damn right it does.
12:11That bastard abandoned our son.
12:14Left me to rot in prison,
12:16all to save his sorry ass.
12:18I'm not sad he's dead.
12:21Paul got what he deserved.
12:23But I didn't kill him.
12:26Okay, so then where were you this morning?
12:28In my halfway house.
12:29From curfew at 9 o'clock last night
12:32to 8.30 this morning.
12:34Listen.
12:36When I was your age,
12:38my father was in prison.
12:40So I know how confusing
12:43this time can be for you.
12:46And when I was sad,
12:48you know what I did?
12:49I just tried to remember
12:51all of the fun stuff we did together.
12:54And I would always remember
12:56how he loved me best and most.
12:59You gotta focus on the good memories.
13:03Hey, and it'll make you feel a lot better.
13:09Vanessa's alibi checks out.
13:11Thank God.
13:13Did not want Sammy to have to carry that burden.
13:15I'm gonna call Hody and get her released.
13:17Hold on.
13:18She violated the terms of her parole
13:19by visiting her son twice.
13:21Terms that are now invalid.
13:23She's innocent.
13:24I know, but there's a process.
13:26The same process that got my father
13:28locked up for eight years for a crime
13:30he didn't commit either.
13:31Simone, I can assure you
13:32that I will fast-track Vanessa's release.
13:34But right now, the question still remains,
13:36if she didn't kill Paul, then who did?
13:37The shady client Vanessa told us about?
13:38Uh, we might actually have a lead on that.
13:40We met with some of Paul's former colleagues
13:41over at Arcadia National Bank,
13:43and most of the clients he took care of
13:44were typical corporate accounts.
13:45But he had one big-money client
13:47he took care of personally.
13:48At one point, the account had over $7 million in it.
13:50And the week that Paul was believed to have been killed,
13:52the money was withdrawn, account closed.
13:54Who owned the account?
13:55Unclear. It was a dummy corporation
13:56that doesn't exist anymore.
13:58They're gonna try to trace it,
13:59but I wouldn't hold your breath.
14:00So, Paul was laundering money,
14:02jacked it for himself.
14:04That's gotta be what got him killed, right?
14:06Antoinette just texted.
14:07She got something off his personal effects.
14:09I'll be right back.
14:10Yeah.
14:11Hey, what'd you find?
14:13Emi found this curled up
14:15in the victim's front pants pocket.
14:16Oh, what is it?
14:17Good question.
14:18It was too compromised by the victim's blood
14:20to make it out.
14:21If only there was a way to...
14:23May I finish, Brendan?
14:24Yeah, sorry.
14:25So, I exposed it to aluminum sulfate
14:28and steady dry heat.
14:30Et voila.
14:33Oh, my God.
14:34It's a parking slip.
14:35Advantage Auto Park, Santa Monica.
14:38Timestamp for, well,
14:39an hour before he was murdered.
14:41God, I wonder if there's a security camera
14:43in that location, just like...
14:44I figured you'd ask that,
14:45so I reached out to the lot and...
14:48Oh, my God.
14:49Oh, yeah, that's Paul.
14:50What is that?
14:52Passport photos?
15:00No plates on the van,
15:01but IT is running facial recognition.
15:03Oh, my God.
15:04You have gone above and beyond.
15:05You're just incredible.
15:09Brendan, we're at the office.
15:10People can see us.
15:11Smells like it.
15:12This time,
15:14if you want to kiss,
15:16be smart about it.
15:28See?
15:29Now back to work.
15:31Okay.
15:34His name's Wally Sanborn.
15:36He's a funeral director
15:37at a local mortuary.
15:39That's why Paul brought him passport photos.
15:41He's in the fake ID business.
15:43I mean, creating new identities
15:44is a perfect side hustle for a mortician.
15:46They have access to the recently deceased,
15:48their security numbers,
15:49personal information,
15:50everything you need to steal an identity.
15:53Paul faked his death already.
15:54Why would he need a new identity
15:55six years later?
16:00Oh, God.
16:03These places give me the creeps.
16:06What are you so afraid of?
16:08Zombies.
16:10Wally Sanborn!
16:12You tell me these places don't creep you out
16:14just a little bit.
16:15Death is a natural part of life.
16:17There's nothing to be afraid of.
16:19Oh!
16:20Oh, boy.
16:23Oh, boy, you jump.
16:27Hello?
16:30FBI!
16:31FBI!
16:32Stop what you're doing!
16:34Why?
16:35I'm not doing anything wrong.
16:36You're literally burning evidence right now, sir.
16:42Oh, are you kidding?
16:43Hey, come on!
16:45Get, get, get, get, get, get!
16:49Get, get, get, get, get, get!
16:52Get, get, ha, ha!
16:59Ha!
17:00Okay, yeah.
17:11Oh!
17:12Hi.
17:13Uh, by chance, did you see a man in a dark suit run through here?
17:16Great.
17:17Okay.
17:19Sorry for your loss.
17:30I definitely swallowed that ash.
17:33Wally Sanborn is on the run.
17:35Last seen fleeing the mortuary.
17:44It's primarily pulverized bone fragments.
17:47So completely harmless.
17:49Never mind.
17:50Subject in custody.
17:54We have video of you speaking with Paul Morrison this morning.
17:58So can you help us identify his abductors?
18:01Are you kidding me?
18:02All I saw was the barrel of that gun.
18:04You see, this is what I get for breaking the number one rule in my business.
18:07What's that rule?
18:08Number one.
18:09You see, this is what I get for breaking the number one rule in my business.
18:12What's that rule?
18:13No repeat customers.
18:14I told Paul that, but he was insistent.
18:17He said he'd pay triple the going rate.
18:19Did he say why he wanted a new identity this time?
18:22Hey, number one rule in my business?
18:24Never ask questions.
18:25Okay, well, is there anything you can tell us about your interaction?
18:29You know, maybe he was scared, someone was after him?
18:33All I know is, six years ago, he was a nervous wreck.
18:36Desperate to disappear fast.
18:38But the Paul that I met yesterday was a totally different dude.
18:42Slick, confident, said he needed to get a new identity and pick up something in town.
18:47Did he say what?
18:48No.
18:49And I didn't ask.
18:50Number one rule in my business, remember?
18:52I think that was number two.
18:53Was it?
18:54It doesn't matter.
18:55We're going to need the identity you gave Paul six years ago.
18:58Yeah?
19:00Number one rule in my business.
19:02Oh my God.
19:03Never work for free.
19:05I'm going to need a lawyer and a deal first.
19:07Okay.
19:14Well, you heard that.
19:17Some answers, more questions.
19:19We're no closer to figuring out who killed Paul.
19:21Well, we just got another piece of the puzzle.
19:23There was a shooting at Gentlewood Cemetery today.
19:25GSW did the chest, he was rushed into emergency surgery.
19:28They pulled the bullet out and the striations matched the ones that killed Paul.
19:32Okay, so it's probably the same shooter, but what's our unsub doing at a cemetery?
19:36He's digging up Paul Morrison's gravesite.
19:38Paul told Wally that he had to go pick up something.
19:41Now, someone like Paul, cold, calculating, he might have stashed the money in case he ever had to go on the run somewhere.
19:46Bold move.
19:47Buried at your own fake gravesite.
19:49One place no one would ever look until your killer tortures you, gets the location out of you.
19:54Well, the only lead we have is Paul's alternate identity, so we need to track down what he's been up to for the last six years.
19:59Okay.
20:00I'll get an AUSA in here to start working on a deal for Wally.
20:03Thanks, boss.
20:05That's it? I'm free?
20:07To leave here, yes, but there's still some hoops for you to jump through before you'll be exonerated.
20:10Why? You've proved I didn't do it.
20:12But now it has to be brought to a judge.
20:14First thing you need is an attorney to present your case in court.
20:17Also, they can work on restoring custody of your son and exploring possible constitutional violations of your civil rights.
20:22Cut it.
20:23Can you give us a sec?
20:25Yeah, sure.
20:28Overwhelming, huh?
20:30I have no family or friends anymore. They all deserted me long ago.
20:34I don't know what to do.
20:37I think I might be able to help with that.
20:39Rather, I know someone who can.
20:44Come on, after you.
20:48Hey, y'all.
20:49Hey, Simone.
20:50Hey, nice to see you.
20:51I like your hair.
20:53Hey, Daddy.
20:54Hey, baby girl.
20:55This is Vanessa.
20:56Hey, I'm Cuddy.
20:59Sit down. Sit, sit.
21:04You don't trust me, do you?
21:06Probably don't trust anyone right now.
21:09I get it.
21:10The system does that to you.
21:12Yeah, it fills you with anger.
21:14Sometimes, when you're locked up, it's the only thing that you can control.
21:20It becomes your friend, your best friend.
21:22Hey, it becomes your only friend.
21:25I get it.
21:26But cut and lose that anger, that is where you have to start.
21:33Because everything that you do now will be tainted with that pain until you just let it go.
21:41Look, all I care about is my son.
21:45I want things to be the way they were before.
21:48I want our normal back.
21:49Honey, normal is gone forever.
21:52So don't even go looking for it.
21:54It's a process.
21:55Like when I first got out, I was guarded, too.
21:59He still keeps a few secrets, sometimes locked away in little wooden boxes.
22:05Mm-hmm.
22:06Trust me, it's possible to still have a great relationship with your son again.
22:15Okay.
22:16Mm-hmm.
22:17Where do I start?
22:19High.
22:21Always high.
22:23Always.
22:24Beacon?
22:25Look, y'all talk, I'll get it.
22:30Synthetic fiber analysis is an important part of any FBI field office laboratory.
22:35Okay, cut.
22:36Can we get a little touch-up on her forehead?
22:38Why, what's wrong?
22:39No, nothing.
22:40And the turn at the beginning, it just feels a little unmotivated.
22:45Look, Antoinette, you're not a laboratory technician.
22:50Yes, I am.
22:51No, not in my film, you're not.
22:52You're an avatar for the victims.
22:54You speak for the dead.
22:56You're the tip of the spear, solving unsolvable crimes.
22:59That's who you are.
23:01But that's not what this video is about, Brendan.
23:05And I'm becoming quite frustrated.
23:07Good.
23:08Use that.
23:09Just like that.
23:10Okay, let's go.
23:11Rolling and action.
23:14And that's why proper FACID searches for polymer class can save both time and effort.
23:19Cut.
23:20What was wrong with that?
23:21I don't know.
23:22It's just not what I'm envisioning.
23:23What you were envisioning, this was supposed to be a simple video for the Academy.
23:27I know.
23:28I'm just trying to help.
23:29You're not listening to me.
23:30No, thanks.
23:37Uh, that's a wrap.
23:40The fact that you're taking my son across the country is unbelievable.
23:44I can't talk about this right now.
23:46I gotta go.
23:47Hey.
23:48Hey.
23:49Hey.
23:50Asher Vinson.
23:51You hungry?
23:52I was thinking sushi or...
23:53Are you okay?
23:54Fine.
23:55Yeah, just, uh, some drama stuff.
23:57Yeah, let's eat.
23:59I want to hear about what's happening with that safe surrender baby from this morning.
24:03Well, the poor thing was so sick.
24:06For a few hours, it looked dire.
24:09I held her so long, my arms started to cramp.
24:12But she's a fighter.
24:16Well, now it's my turn to ask, are you okay?
24:19I never wanted to be a mom.
24:21I have the most ridiculous relationship with my own, as you know.
24:24But this girl looks something in me.
24:30Sorry.
24:32We've only been on a few dates, and here I go mentioning the B word.
24:34Not sexy.
24:36Also, not hinting at anything.
24:38Relax, I got a son.
24:39I get it.
24:40Okay.
24:42I'm going to clock out and change.
24:45Start thinking of where we can eat.
24:46Surprise me.
24:49Hey, Fortune, this is my work texting me.
24:52I'm so sorry.
24:54I got to get back.
24:55Oh, okay.
24:59And this isn't about what I just said?
25:01No, come on.
25:02No, no, no, this...
25:03Rain check?
25:04Sure.
25:05Good luck...
25:07With work.
25:21Oh, no tie today.
25:23Someone's a bureaucratic rebel.
25:25I must have forgot to put one on.
25:29Hey.
25:30Of course he has backups.
25:34Hey, B.
25:36How's the filming going?
25:37Oh, so good.
25:39There's some weird vibes coming off the menfolk in here this morning.
25:42Mm-hmm.
25:43Good, you're all here.
25:44The AUSA finalized the deal with Wally Sanborn,
25:47and he gave up the fake identity he created for Paul Morrison six years ago.
25:51Nicholas Jones, got an address in Salt Lake City,
25:54insurance salesman, married, no kids.
25:56Laura, Brendan, the jet, it's getting fueled up as we speak.
25:59Go there.
26:00Talk to the wife, friends, anyone who he may have done business with.
26:03Have a search warrant for his house by the time you guys land.
26:05Yeah, on it.
26:07The groundskeeper who was shot at Paul's gravesite, he pulled through.
26:11So our best guess is whoever shot him also killed Paul.
26:14So I need you guys to go to the hospital.
26:16Be there by the time this guy wakes up.
26:18Talk to him.
26:19Let's go, backup tie.
26:23And then she just, like, stormed out.
26:26So to be clear, Internet asked for your help?
26:29Well, not really.
26:30I mean, I offered, but...
26:31You inserted yourself.
26:32She said she wanted something simple, but I could tell...
26:34So you just had to go above and beyond because you wanted to impress her.
26:37And you let your ego get in the way instead of actually relating to her
26:41and listening to what she needed.
26:43Yeah.
26:46Oh, man, I screwed up, didn't I?
26:47Yep, you knew it.
26:49But now you just got to do whatever you can to make it right.
26:52How?
26:54You know, Brendan, I am your training agent, not your life coach.
26:58Just figure it out.
27:00Because you are in danger of blowing up your relationship
27:02before it even has a chance to really begin.
27:05You know, you would make an excellent life coach.
27:07Okay, could you stop talking?
27:09Keep digging through the victim's fake identity.
27:14Are you looking for your girl or avoiding her?
27:17Why would I be avoiding her?
27:19You're a terrible liar.
27:21Whatever it is, I know it's your fault.
27:23So be honest and apologize.
27:26Hello?
27:28Ms. Irwin, Special Agents Hope and Clark, FBI.
27:30We need to ask you some questions about your assault.
27:32But first, how are you feeling, dear?
27:35Am I in hell?
27:37No, close, Los Angeles.
27:41But the good thing is you survived.
27:44Can you tell us what you remember?
27:46I saw the white light.
27:49Are you angels?
27:51No, but we can be.
27:54If you tell us what you know about who shot you.
27:57What did you remember before the white light?
28:00I, um, I saw a white van.
28:03Okay, good.
28:04The people who were after drove a white van.
28:06Do you remember anything about it?
28:08The license plate said PCI.
28:10I remember that because it's my father's initials.
28:13I thought it was funny to begin with.
28:15Then it wasn't funny anymore.
28:18Three guys digging up a grave went out of gun.
28:23Pow.
28:25White light.
28:27So I'm really not in hell?
28:29No, sweetie, but if you got to keep questioning,
28:31you might want to get back to church.
28:39FBI.
28:42Suzy Jones, FBI.
28:44I'm Special Agent Stinson.
28:45What's going on?
28:46Do you have a warrant to search the property?
28:50And he framed his first wife for his murder?
28:54Yeah.
28:55This can't be real.
28:56We take it you didn't know much about your husband's past?
29:00I guess not.
29:03We met four years ago when I was a flight attendant
29:07on my L.A. to Salt Lake route.
29:09He said he was an insurance salesman
29:11and an only child and that his parents had passed.
29:13He didn't give me any reason to question that.
29:17Do you think he was trying to do the same thing to me
29:19he did to his other wife?
29:20We don't know.
29:21Okay, well, we need to learn everything
29:22about the life he created here.
29:24I can't believe this is happening.
29:26Hey, boss.
29:27I just ran the partial plate.
29:28There are four late model white Dodge Vans
29:31with PCI in the number in California,
29:33and there's one locally.
29:34It belongs to a drug dealer named Leon McTavish.
29:38I just sent you the address of a warehouse
29:40where the car is registered.
29:42Got it.
29:43I'm sending a SWAT team to meet you there, too,
29:45but proceed with caution.
29:47-♪♪♪♪
29:55-♪♪♪♪
30:06FBI! Show us your hands!
30:08FBI! Go, go, go!
30:10Hold on tight!
30:11-♪♪♪♪
30:20-♪♪♪♪
30:30-♪♪♪♪
30:37Suspect's laying south on Alhambra Avenue.
30:39Requesting backup and an air search.
30:41You coming?
30:44-♪♪♪♪
30:48-♪♪♪♪
30:49Simone, Simone, there's no way
30:50you can catch him in this thing.
30:51Sure about that?
30:53Hold on.
30:54-♪♪♪♪
31:03Hold on.
31:04No, no, no, no.
31:05Wait, wait, wait, wait.
31:07Wait, wait, wait, wait.
31:08Hold on, Tony!
31:09Oh!
31:10-♪♪♪♪
31:12Simone!
31:13-♪♪♪♪
31:15I got it, I got it!
31:16-♪♪♪♪
31:21I got you!
31:22-♪♪♪♪
31:29Oh!
31:30-♪♪♪♪
31:40-♪♪♪♪
31:46Simone, what are you doing?
31:47I'm gonna cut him off.
31:49-♪♪♪♪
31:53Get ready.
31:55Three, two, one!
31:58-♪♪♪♪
32:03Show us your hands!
32:04Show us your hands!
32:06-♪♪♪♪
32:14-♪♪♪♪
32:16Look, this is just a huge misunderstanding.
32:18I ain't done nothing wrong.
32:20We, uh, innocent people
32:21rarely shoot at the fence and run.
32:24America, my friend,
32:25I got the right to defend myself.
32:27How am I supposed to know y'all FBI?
32:29The big letters FBI
32:31on the front of our tactical vest
32:33could have been a hint.
32:34Lady, I can buy those at the swap meet.
32:36Okay, let's cease with the charade.
32:37We know Paul was laundering your money
32:39six years ago through Arcadia National.
32:41We also know it was your gun
32:42that took his life after you tortured him
32:44to get the location of where that money was stashed.
32:46And then you used that same gun
32:48to shoot the groundskeeper
32:49after you dug up the money
32:51underneath Paul's fake grave.
32:53Well, if y'all know so much,
32:54what you need me for?
32:55To answer one question.
32:56How did you know Paul was alive and in L.A.?
32:58We saw your phone records, boo.
33:00We know the day before Paul arrived,
33:02you got a phone call from a Salt Lake City number.
33:05So who was it that tipped you off, Leon?
33:08♪♪♪♪♪
33:12I don't know.
33:15But you can ask my lawyer.
33:17♪♪♪♪♪
33:20Hey, Matt, we're on the tarmac.
33:22About to take off. What's up?
33:24We have Paul's killer in custody.
33:26It's a drug dealer that he screwed over six years ago
33:28by the name of Leon McTavish.
33:30So he just tore up Susie Jones' house for nothing?
33:32Oh, not exactly.
33:33Leon knew that Paul was alive and in town
33:35because he received an anonymous phone call
33:37from a burner cell that pinged off of a tower in...
33:39Let me guess, Salt Lake City?
33:41Bingo.
33:42Stop the plane!
33:43♪♪♪♪♪♪
33:45Back already?
33:46Uh-huh.
33:47You find out who killed Nikki?
33:49I mean, Paul?
33:51Yes, his killers are in custody
33:53You know, turns out one of them was tipped off
33:55by a phone call from Salt Lake City.
33:58Mm-hmm.
33:59I don't understand.
34:00I think you understand a lot more than you let on.
34:02You didn't meet Paul in Salt Lake City, did you?
34:04You met him in Los Angeles when you were hubbed there.
34:06What was it? Seven years ago?
34:08Seven? No.
34:09We met four years ago.
34:10I told you that.
34:11No, we have the flight logs from the FAA,
34:13which tells us you knew all about his wife and kid
34:15when you started your affair.
34:16That's not true.
34:17Sure it is.
34:18And I bet he told you all about Leon,
34:20his $7 million client.
34:22And I bet it was your idea to steal the money,
34:24fake his death, blame it on the wife,
34:26that way he could start a whole new life here in Salt Lake.
34:29This is absurd.
34:30Now, tell me, was it your idea
34:33to bury the money at the gravesite?
34:35Hmm?
34:36Yes.
34:38It was.
34:39And that's why there was nothing there,
34:41because you dug it up
34:42the minute he gave you a reason to doubt him.
34:44Because once a cheater, always a cheater, right?
34:46Which is smart,
34:47because he did move on with a new identity
34:50without, you know, you.
34:52You were right not to trust him.
34:53Mm-hmm.
34:54He was just gonna steal the money,
34:56trade you in for a new wife.
34:57Oh, but you weren't gonna be the woman scorned.
35:00No, too clever for that.
35:01So you tipped off Leon.
35:03Let him and his boys do your dirty work for you.
35:06Wow.
35:07Fun story.
35:09But it's a lot easier to tell than it is to prove.
35:13The AUSA isn't moving forward
35:15with pressing charges against Suzy.
35:17What?
35:18Why not?
35:19Not enough evidence to make the case.
35:21So she's just gonna get away with it?
35:23Hey, Simone, remember, this is the FBI.
35:25We play the long game here.
35:26We have no problem taking our time
35:28when we have a target in sight.
35:29And Suzy, she just became a celebrity
35:31at the Salt Lake City field office,
35:33so they'll be watching her like a hawk,
35:35especially after we freeze all of her assets.
35:38Sooner or later, she's gonna need money.
35:40So if she tries to spend a dime of that stolen cash...
35:42We snatch her ass up.
35:44I could live with that.
35:48Okay, Ivy got her law degree from Yale.
35:51But don't worry, she's good people.
35:54Just a little bit uppity.
35:56Okay, be nice, Cuddy.
35:58I'll get your exoneration finalized quickly.
36:00Pro bono, of course.
36:02Really?
36:03It's for a good cause.
36:06Daddy, was that one of your soldiers for justice?
36:09You know it.
36:11After she gets my exoneration finalized,
36:13Cuddy's gonna help me get custody of Sammy.
36:15Okay, and what does Aunt Donna have to say about it?
36:18She actually offered to help me transition
36:21back into Sammy's life.
36:22I'm going to one of his soccer games today.
36:24I gotta start mothering again.
36:25All right.
36:26Bit of advice, huh?
36:28Yeah.
36:29You know, Cuddy,
36:30I don't know if you've ever heard
36:32I gotta start mothering again.
36:33All right.
36:34Bit of advice?
36:35Bring orange slices for Sammy's team.
36:38Those always play well.
36:40I can handle that.
36:43This means everything to me.
36:45Thank you both so much.
36:46Come here.
36:50Oh, Daddy.
36:53You're changing her life.
36:55She deserves a fighting chance.
36:57Just like the one I got.
37:03Hey.
37:08And I didn't...
37:10listen to you.
37:14Promise never to do it again?
37:16Promise.
37:19Okay.
37:20That was your one pass.
37:22Really?
37:23Yes.
37:25Because I know why you did it.
37:28You're an artistic person.
37:30Spent your entire life creating.
37:33And you don't have that outlet anymore.
37:35But we can fix that.
37:37I signed us up for an introductory painting class.
37:40Painting?
37:42Perhaps we can find an outlet together.
37:44Yeah.
37:46Totally. I love that.
37:48But can I get the supplies?
37:49They're so expensive.
37:51Oh, I already have oil paints.
37:53A gift from my ex-boyfriend.
37:55Ex-boyfriend?
37:56Mm.
37:58He didn't listen to me either.
38:03What?
38:04No fake injury?
38:06Kind of disappointed.
38:07My co-worker and I had a bet going.
38:09I said tennis elbow, he had you as a neck sprain.
38:12I almost went with food poisoning.
38:13That was a big commitment.
38:15Also might be a tougher segue from that
38:17to asking if you're free for dinner.
38:19Thought I scared you off.
38:21With the baby talk.
38:22No.
38:23I hate...
38:25I'm sorry.
38:27I hate you, what you said.
38:30I had just gotten a phone call from my ex-wife.
38:32She's been talking about moving to New Orleans with my son.
38:35But she's pulled the trigger.
38:37And the phone call was a heads up that
38:39she's serving me the papers asking for full custody of our son.
38:43So I was a little shook.
38:45And when you mentioned the baby, I just...
38:47Carter, you could have just said that.
38:50I'm not the greatest at communicating sometimes.
38:53Reason I'm at 23 while I'm getting a divorce.
38:56Well, look at you now.
38:57Making adjustments and being real about it.
39:00I don't know you well, but that sounds like growth to me.
39:03Thanks.
39:05And I'm sorry I bailed on you last night.
39:08Can I make it up to you?
39:10Sure.
39:11But I don't get off for another two hours.
39:16You're worth waiting for.
39:18Bam, I'll take 20.
39:20Domino.
39:21Best game, baby.
39:22Why can I ever beat you?
39:25Because I am the best.
39:28I guess.
39:30But, um...
39:36What's this?
39:41Oh.
39:43Your mystery box.
39:45Go ahead, open it.
39:51This is mama's stuff.
39:54This is the scarf she used to wear all the time.
40:03It doesn't have her scent anymore.
40:09Letters she wrote me when I was in prison.
40:13They were my lifeline.
40:15Teddy, why did you keep this hidden?
40:17This stuff is beautiful.
40:19I still feel guilty about missing all those years with you two.
40:23Oh, Teddy.
40:25We had less than two years with your mother after I got home.
40:29I guess I locked all those memories and my grief in that box.
40:39Can I read one?
40:49Hey, babe.
40:51I just wanted to let you know that your two favorite girls are thinking of you.
40:55We miss you more every day.
41:00And there's already been 730 of them.
41:05Yes, I'm counting.
41:07Because each day I mark off the calendar is one day closer to you being home.
41:13Please.
41:15So mom wiped some of the frosting from her birthday cake at the bottom of the page
41:20so you would feel like you were a part of the celebration.
41:23I can't believe our baby's 10.
