00:00Oh no, oh no
00:29All right, we'll see you back here at noon
00:32Okay
00:32All right, bye-bye
00:33It's gonna be great
00:41It'll be fun, I promise
00:59Boxer
01:06Yeah, I'll be right there
01:11Son of a
01:17I know, I know, I'm sorry
01:32You had a hot date last night I didn't know about?
01:34No, why?
01:35Because I tried calling, but your phone was off
01:37That's what they call us for, it's a suicide, right?
01:41No, it's Joe Donovan
01:42Joe Donovan
01:45San Fran's QB for the, I don't know, last 15 years?
01:49Three Super Bowl rings, future Hall of Fame
01:51QB stands for quarterback, right?
01:53You must be the pride of Texas
01:55Come on, Mrs. Donovan
01:59I have to be with them, they're gonna take him away
02:01It's okay, Mrs. Donovan, let's just go back upstairs
02:03Joe's wife, Paris
02:05She found the body this morning
02:06When she and the kids returned from the house of Napa
02:08At the moment, she's, uh, floating away
02:11On a fistful of sedatives
02:12Wait, did the kids see you?
02:14No, I didn't see a thing
02:15His wife, two kids?
02:18This guy must have had some serious pain ended this way
02:20Until Donovan was not one to let pain stop him
02:22The man once played half a game
02:24With two broken ribs and a dislocated shoulder
02:26You respected him?
02:28Yeah, and so should you
02:29He did take the coward's way out
02:30What, I'm just saying
02:32That she woke up on the wrong side of the bed this morning
02:34And I can see that
02:35Uh, is Tom here?
02:38No, why?
02:39No reason
02:40Your guys are just in time
02:49So he got things rolling with booze and pills
02:55And he got the job done with a knife?
02:57Depressing, definitely possible
02:59Or not
03:08Looks like murder to me
03:10Okay, so a guy is found dead in a hot tub
03:26With booze, pills, slit wrists
03:29And it's not suicide
03:30Yeah, what are you thinking?
03:32It just doesn't fit
03:33Not to generalize
03:34But most men, when they choose to end it
03:36They pick a more traumatic exit
03:37Like, uh, hanging, shooting, train tracks
03:40Unlike most women who are vain to the end
03:42They'll take slit wrists
03:44Or a bottle of pills over a gunshot to the head any day
03:46Maybe Joe Donovan was the exception?
03:48No
03:48Fine supports Lindsay
03:49His cuts start superior and end inferior to the wrist
03:53And that's the exact opposite of what I expect
03:54And the knife was wiped clean
03:55There are no prints on it
03:57Plus there's no suicide note
03:58Someone staged this
03:59I had Joe's poster on my wall growing up
04:01Number 11, big guns
04:03Ugh, this is so surreal
04:05Okay
04:07One, how old are you?
04:09And two, a football player?
04:11I would have guessed more, you know, NSYNC
04:14Backstreet Boys
04:15My parents only had one kid, so
04:17If you're looking at the sun my father always wanted
04:20It's kind of sweet
04:21Is that the wife?
04:25No, that's the agent, Drew Kaplan
04:27The wife was at a charity event in Napa last night
04:30She left Joe here at home for Guy's Poker Night
04:31Yeah, the Donovans were big in the charity
04:33They raised half a million plus for the Children's Cancer Award at Mission Cross North last year
04:37Okay, let's get the crime scene wrapped up
04:40Take it back to the station
04:41The vultures are circling
04:43No offense
04:43Why is the DA's office here?
04:45Standard procedure in cases this high profile
04:47Is there something suspicious about Joe's death?
04:49We have no comment at this time
04:50Maurice
04:52Maurice, you saw Joe last night
04:55What was his mood like?
04:56How does it feel to be the starting quarterback?
05:00Come on
05:00Give me a break
05:02Joe's a friend
05:03I'm not even thinking about the game
05:05So you left the poker game early?
05:10Yeah
05:11Mo got lucky on the river
05:12Knocked me out around 11
05:13Hate it when that happens
05:15Yeah
05:15Mo, that's Maurice Jackson, right?
05:19Yeah
05:20Okay, I think that's it
05:22You know, I used to, uh, I used to play a little
05:25You know, they said I had great hands
05:27So you're a wide receiver
05:28I was a cornerback
05:29Think you might have a little something for me?
05:32Well, you know, maybe in my 20s
05:35Yeah, well, you let me know if there's anything else I can do for you
05:37All right
05:38Why can't I get a blind date with a guy like that?
05:43Because he's married
05:44Hey, is that who I think it is?
05:45One and only
05:45I just finished taking this statement
05:47I almost asked him to sign my football
05:49I should have asked him to sign it
05:51What is it about this game?
05:56Hey, uh, do you mind signing this for my partner, please?
05:59It's for my nephew
06:00Actually, his name is Warren
06:02How's the case?
06:11Good, uh, we just talked to three of the guys that were playing poker with Joe last night
06:16After the game, they all went home to their wives, or mistresses, or their girlfriends
06:22You know, each guy said that Joe wasn't the type to kill himself
06:26But, um, no one's venturing a guess on who would want to murder him
06:30We haven't spoken to Maurice Jackson yet
06:32What about the knife?
06:32It matches the set at the Donovan house, but their set is complete
06:36The one that was used to kill Joe seems to be an orphan
06:39It's got some special imprint on it
06:41I'm having trouble identifying
06:43That you try pulling the tapes from the houses in Joe's neighborhood?
06:48We're on that, and Claire's having a hard time determining the time of death
06:52Uh, just because, you know, the body was boiling in a hot tub
06:55Okay
06:56Okay
06:57Okay, wait
06:59I'm sorry
07:01That I kicked you out
07:03You know, after we
07:05I can't
07:07Me too
07:07Wait
07:09What?
07:12You, uh
07:13Okay, well, uh, that's it for now
07:17Okay
07:18Joe had ten million reasons not to commit suicide
07:33That was, uh, Joe's salary this year
07:35Oh, really?
07:38Well, we don't think that Joe committed suicide either
07:40How is it that you ended up at the house, Ms. Cameron?
07:42The team offered Joe a one-year extension on his contract
07:46We were going to discuss it over breakfast, so I went to the house, the cops were already there, and Paris was hysterical, so I fed her some pills
07:52Thanks for that
07:53I have plenty to go around
07:54And I certainly didn't want her talking to anyone in that state
07:57Let's talk about that contract
07:59And rumor mill has it Joe was going to retire after the season
08:01Negotiation 101?
08:03Hello?
08:04That's what I wanted you and everybody else to think
08:06And Joe?
08:07What did he think?
08:08Joe was going to sign
08:09I mean, he had me set a press conference for Thursday
08:11All right, so according to the housekeeper, you have the Donovans' house keys, their alarm codes, so you and Joe were close, right?
08:21Oh, I get it
08:22I'm hot, he's hot
08:24We worked closely together, probably couldn't keep our hands off of each other
08:28It always leads to sex, right?
08:31You tell me
08:32Look, I was Joe's work wife
08:34Contract negotiations, image licensing, you name it
08:38And occasionally some emotional hand-holding, but only when it came to football, and even then I didn't enjoy it
08:43Tenderness, intimacy
08:45It was Paris' job
08:47Besides, I spent the night with my lover
08:50Rachel
08:51Do you even care that Joe is dead?
08:54You know, right now, it is all about damage control
08:57I'll cry later
08:58Any idea who'd want to kill Joe?
09:00Well, I did leave my old agency to start my own company
09:03They weren't pleased that I took their star client, so maybe they killed Joe to punish me?
09:08Right, because this is all about you
09:10Huh?
09:15Why can't I see him?
09:17Who?
09:18Joe Donovan, he's here, right?
09:20His body's here, but the Joe you remember's passed on to a better place
09:23Well, can I at least see his body then?
09:30No
09:30What about a Super Bowl ring?
09:31Do you have that on him?
09:33Isn't there some homework you can do before your dad gets here?
09:35Mom, please
09:36My hero is dead
09:37You can't do homework
09:38I have something you guys are going to want to say
09:42Hey, Nate
09:43Nate, you take one step outside of this room, and I don't need to tell you what's going to happen, right?
09:49Fine
09:49Do you remember how you gave me ground rules before I was, uh, you know, in the club
09:56And how I have followed every single one of them
10:00Now I have some ground rules
10:05Is that really necessary?
10:07It is if you want to see the desk
10:08Give us the ground rules
10:09You do not get to ask the name of my source
10:12What if I need to talk to him?
10:13Another reporter who will not be named taped a close practice that Joe's team held last week
10:17If the team of the league found out this person could be fired, you do not get the name of my source
10:22It seems reasonable
10:23I don't like it
10:25Okay
10:25Okay, fine
10:28Okay, thanks
10:30There's just one more, you don't get to keep the desk
10:33Alright, no
10:34If there's information on that desk that can help me solve this murder
10:38These are my ground rules
10:39The man is dead
10:40Fine, it better be good
10:44Wait, I saw that other guy at Joe's house this morning
10:50Maurice Jackson, backup quarterback
10:52Restring the moment Joe died
10:54I'm the only one of Joe's poker buddies from last night that hasn't come in to talk to us yet
10:58Come on, you want pissing me?
11:02Nice
11:03I'm gonna kill you
11:05I promise I'm gonna kill you
11:07You're gone
11:08Well, let's see if Maurice keeps his promises
11:11I hope Maurice Jackson finally came in
11:24Lindsay sharpening her claws
11:25She was until he lawyered up
11:27Of course, I want her $1,000 an hour pretty boy Maurice has on retainer
11:30Hey, we must be going to the same place
11:33Hanson
11:34Public defender, doesn't Maurice have 10 million reasons to hire a high-priced pit bull?
11:39$3 million, he may have been a first-round pick, but he's still second string
11:42I handled a case for Maurice when I was still in private practice
11:45Kept in touch
11:47He was in the neighborhood, told him I'd stop by
11:49Uh, assault, wasn't it?
11:51Hey, someone's been doing his research
11:53Yeah, but you know that that case got thrown out of court, right?
11:56On a technicality
11:57Well, God is in the details
11:59So, I've advised Maurice not to talk
12:01So, book him or let him walk
12:04Okay
12:06Ms. Bernhardt, always a pleasure
12:09Give me two minutes
12:13We both know a public defender can't have a private client
12:25Doesn't mean I can't give him free advice if I so choose
12:27Which I do
12:28Maurice was the last person at the poker game
12:30Which means he was the last person to see Joe alive
12:32Listen, I saw him at Joe's house
12:35He cared about him
12:35And if he cared about him
12:36He should want to do everything possible to help catch the man who killed him
12:39I tell you what
12:41Um, if you go out to dinner with me
12:43I'll let your inspector friends talk to Maurice
12:45That's completely unethical
12:47And ridiculous
12:49So, sue me
12:51Joe and I taught playbook
12:54It got late
12:55He said his back was killing him
12:56And he was going to get the hot tub
12:57He was alive and well last I saw him
12:59I don't know what else to tell you
13:01You and Joe are a fight?
13:02Because I heard you got into it last week
13:04You got a temper, don't you, Maurice?
13:06I like to think of it as passion
13:07That was a misunderstanding
13:10And he came after me
13:11A misunderstanding that ended with you threatening to kill him
13:13I've been taking a crash course on football since Joe died
13:15There's a big difference between first string and second string
13:18You had a lot to gain with Joe's death
13:19What happened to our friendly conversation?
13:21Why would I kill Joe?
13:23He was retiring
13:23No, he wasn't
13:24You have no idea what you're talking about, lady
13:27But I do
13:28There was a one-year deal waiting on the table for his signature
13:30He was about to announce it to the press
13:33Now that had to have infuriated you
13:34We're done here, come on
13:35Look, I wanted to be the starter
13:37More than anything
13:39But if Joe wanted back with the team and the team wanted Joe
13:41I'm cool with that
13:42You act like I don't got options
13:44I could have asked for a trade
13:45And ten other teams would have signed me in a heartbeat
13:47Hey, you're supposed to be in there
13:56You're not supposed to be in here
13:59Come on
14:01That's not Joe
14:03It's just his body
14:05Hey, do you remember that game a couple years ago?
14:10San Fran, Chicago
14:11QBs couldn't see
14:13Twenty yards in the snow
14:16I watched that game with my dad
14:19Me too
14:20In the first half
14:24It was a total defensive battle
14:26But when Joe
14:28Came out of the locker room after halftime
14:31Man, you could just tell he was over it
14:34He laid that
14:37Perfect
14:38Spiral
14:39Into Williams' waiting arms
14:41To start the third quarter
14:42He never looked back
14:45You should remember him that way
14:49You stay put like you're supposed to
14:53Maybe I'll show you my 2005 Super Bowl program
14:56Signed by the team
14:57Don't tell him Mama was in there
14:59I think he's where
15:00I mean, it's extortion
15:02Or blackmail
15:04Or something
15:05Just go to dinner with him
15:07It's not like you still have any feelings for the guy
15:09That's true
15:10It was history
15:11But we're figuring out how to make things work
15:12Kind of like Lindsay and Tom
15:13Okay, not like Lindsay and Tom
15:16It's just I'm trying to be super extra good girlfriend right now
15:20Luke is being deposed today
15:21For what?
15:24A couple months ago
15:25A four-year-old girl came into the ER
15:27Her parents thought she'd eaten some crayons
15:28Her mouth was all green
15:29She seemed fine
15:31She was running around
15:32Her blood work was good
15:33So Luke sent her home
15:34In the middle of the night
15:35She died
15:37Iron poisoning
15:37Turned out she'd eaten a bottle of multivitamins
15:40That's awful
15:41Yeah
15:41But I'm sure Luke did everything he could
15:45The parents are probably just trying to make sense of it
15:49And looking for someone to blame
15:50Absolutely, I get it
15:52Believe me
15:52It's just I wish
15:53I don't know
15:55Some other doctor had been on that night
15:57What I miss
15:59Claire's about to give us the rundown
16:01Joe Donovan
16:03The man was not fine
16:06Degenerative arthritis
16:07Multiple concussions
16:08Numerous broken bones
16:10I don't know how this guy got out of bed in the morning
16:11Let alone played a game of football
16:13The tox results came back
16:14Joe had enough benzodiazepine in his system
16:17To knock him out cold
16:18So that's how the killer managed to cut his wrist without a struggle
16:21There's one drug in Joe's system that I haven't been able to identify
16:24I'm having the lab run more tests
16:26Other than that
16:27That's what we expected
16:28Alcohol, a small amount of steroids
16:30And a pharmacy of painkillers
16:32Well the painkillers make sense
16:33The guy was a boy scout except for a DUI he got three years ago
16:36No drinking was involved
16:37But he did cop to taking too many pills for an injury
16:39He did twice the amount of community service hours he was sentenced to
16:42And put it behind him
16:43Wait, shouldn't Lindsay be hearing all of this?
16:45She already has
16:46I caught her right before Joe's wife showed up
16:48Guess those sedatives finally wore off
16:50We spoke to your nanny
16:52Julie, was it?
16:53She's one of our nannies
16:56Although I think that Julie's the boy's favorite
16:59She told us that she watched the kids last night in Napa
17:02While you went alone to the charity dinner at Galerga Vineyards
17:05That's right
17:06I snuck in to kiss the boys goodnight when I got home around midnight
17:13And then I took a sleeping pill to help me nod off
17:17You pop a lot of pills, Mrs. Donovan
17:20How was your marriage?
17:21I don't see how that's relevant
17:23I know this is hard
17:25But anything that you can tell us will help
17:26It was hard
17:27Having Joe gone all the time
17:30Even when he was at home
17:33His mind was in the game
17:35But that's part of the deal when you marry a professional athlete
17:38I knew when I signed up for it
17:40What about affairs?
17:41Did Joe ever sleep around?
17:43Joe was a star
17:44He could have any woman that he wanted
17:47But he wasn't the type
17:48He lived his life like he played the game
17:50A hundred percent committed
17:51Drew Kaplan said that she was Joe's work wife
17:55More like a slave driver
17:57Did you know that she convinced him to sign on to do another year
18:01When all he wanted to do
18:02Was retire and spend time with me and the boys?
18:06Work wife?
18:07I don't think so
18:08I'm sorry, this is so upsetting, Paris
18:10I think that's enough
18:14For now, thank you for coming in
18:16We need to subpoena the GPS records for the wife's car
18:21I want confirmation that Paris was in Napa last night
18:24Mrs. Donovan is a suspect
18:26Well, statistics are statistics for a reason
18:28It's usually the spouse
18:29Even if she does come in a perfect package
18:32Uh, I need to talk to you
18:36For a second
18:36We're gonna have this conversation now?
18:38Yeah, just take a sec
18:39Okay
18:39We were vulnerable
18:41It was a moment, alright?
18:43Well, let's
18:43No, no, not
18:44Hold on, no running
18:46Everyone should stay with your buddies
18:47Hey, we're here
18:49Hi
18:50Okay, okay
18:52Ew, Miss Donnelly kissing a boy
18:54That's gross
18:55It's my fiancé
18:57That makes it okay
18:58Hey, Lindy
19:00Hello
19:01Uh, like I was saying
19:03Heather is visiting with the class today
19:05It's great
19:08I'm so sorry
19:19I didn't mean to interrupt
19:20Pretty early
19:21No, no, right on time
19:23Is she a cop?
19:24She's too pretty to be a cop
19:27A lady can be a cop?
19:29I'm an inspector
19:30Actually, homicide
19:32What's homicide?
19:36Okay, you guys
19:36I think
19:37I think we should let Inspector Boxer get back to work
19:39Have you ever shot anyone?
19:42Well, uh, yes
19:44But, um, only when I didn't have any other choice
19:48Are you married?
19:49I used to be
19:50I mean, he
19:51It doesn't matter
19:52Hey, who wants to see a gun?
19:54Me!
19:54Uh, I need to borrow Inspector Boxer for just a minute
19:57Hey, hey
19:58You know what's more fun than talking to her?
20:02Candy!
20:03It's right over there by the jail cell
20:04Come on
20:05Go, go, go, go, go
20:07Have you lost your mind?
20:11Is this just gonna be a thing of her?
20:13Is she just gonna pop up wherever she wants to?
20:14I got your ears
20:15Thank you
20:16Tom is marrying her
20:18She's gonna be around forever
20:20I just
20:22Have you seen the way she looks at him?
20:24It's just so googly-eyed
20:26You mean, kind of holler you look at him?
20:29Okay, I
20:30Am not
20:31Nor have I ever been
20:33Googly-eyed
20:34Over anyone
20:35Distract me
20:38Tell me about the GPS records
20:39Paris' car sat in the driveway of their Napa home
20:42From 11.45pm till 8am the next morning
20:44When she and the kids drove back to San Francisco
20:46Damn it
20:46Good news is
20:47I've nailed down time of death
20:49Joe bled out and died around 3am
20:51It'd be so nice if we had a suspect
20:54What about Maurice?
20:55I thought you hadn't ruled him out
20:56No, I haven't
20:58I've actually got somebody falling up on that
20:59Maurice Jackson
21:04Cindy Thomas
21:05San Francisco Register
21:07How'd you get in here?
21:08I sort of snuck in
21:09I'm doing a piece on the stadium's ground crew for the metro section
21:12Just five pain-free minutes
21:16And then you can go about your day
21:18I can be happy knowing that
21:20I got to talk to the guy
21:21Who led Texas back from an 18-point halftime deficit
21:24In the bowl game
21:26Like Rain Man or something
21:28It was just pretty hard to forget
21:29So about the ground crew
21:33Just one quote
21:34You expect me to believe that on the day Joe Donovan dies
21:36The Register wants to do a piece
21:38On the stadium's ground crew?
21:40You want to ask me about Joe?
21:42Just be straight
21:43How's this for straight?
21:46My dad died 18 months ago
21:49He loved Joe Donovan
21:50I loved my dad
21:52We used to watch every game together
21:54Now I watch for his boat
21:56Every game?
21:58I could tell you every stat
22:01Every injury you or Joe ever had
22:04Joe's would be a long list
22:06Off the record
22:08I swear
22:09I don't know
22:11It's just weird to think about Joe's
22:14Regular flesh and blood
22:15Yeah, Joe was human, alright
22:16He was 35
22:17He had numbness, pins, needles
22:19And Dr. Boyd let him play
22:22Seriously, off the record
22:23One fan to another
22:24Look
22:28They have blow-ups about this all the time
22:32We'll be fighting about it today if Joe was here
22:34I don't want to see that in print
22:36Not a chance
22:37Hey, take care of yourself out there
22:42I'll be fine
22:44Rain, man
22:58He came to check on me
22:59He said I'm not knowing how you were
23:00How'd it go
23:01The plaintiff's lawyers are threatening criminal charges
23:05Criminal?
23:08Where's intent to harm or blatant indifference?
23:11They said that I didn't listen
23:12They said that they told me
23:14That it could have been vitamins
23:15I thought they said crayons
23:16I just come out for a 24-hour shift
23:18They were yelling in Spanish
23:19I thought I understood them
23:19I don't know
23:20Maybe I should have got a translator or something
23:22No, no, hey
23:23It sounds like a negotiation ploy
23:24Okay, just don't let them settle
23:27Especially if it means admitting guilt
23:28Yeah, well, it's the hospital's lawyers
23:30I don't have much of a saying this
23:31If they bring me up on criminal charges
23:33My career is over
23:34Even if I'm acquitted, I'm done
23:35Let's not go there just yet
23:36Don't you think we should have called first?
23:43It's called the element of surprise
23:45Plus my source of the doctor boy
23:47Likes to keep late hours
23:48So, you're thinking the team doctor
23:50Off the star QB
23:52Because he was going to rat him out
23:53For over-medicating his players
23:54Yeah, it's possible
23:55I've been doing research on the game
23:57Team doctors don't have the best reputations
23:59For putting their players' health first
24:00Dr. Boyd
24:02It's Inspectors Boxer and Jacoby
24:04From San Francisco Police Department
24:05Can we have a moment of your time, please?
24:09Dr. Boyd, are you in there?
24:10Yeah
24:10Oh, come on
24:33Drew Kaplan
24:36Oh, this time it is all about you
24:39My partner is irritated
24:48You made us run
24:49I don't like running
24:52I was scared
24:54It was dark
24:55You know, the league's not going to look too kindly
24:56On an agent trying to steal team health records
24:59Well, I didn't steal team records
25:01Right
25:01Just Joe's
25:02I was trying to protect my client
25:04Your client or yourself, Miss Kaplan
25:05This so doesn't look good for you
25:08I didn't kill Joe
25:09I'm just trying to contain the ridiculous rumors
25:12The bench report wrote that they found steroids in Joe's system
25:15The bench report
25:16It's a sports blog
25:17If mainstream press got a hold of that
25:19I had to make sure there was nothing in these files that could hurt Joe's reputation
25:23As his agent, I have a responsibility to ensure that his memorabilia and licensing earning potential doesn't fade
25:30Yes, you wouldn't want something like death to get in the way of a little money
25:34Especially when 10% of 10 million has already been thrown out the door
25:37I owed it to Joe's children
25:40Well, it's nice to know that there are still some selfless people in this world, Miss Kaplan
25:44Thank you, Inspector Boxer
25:46You think she's guilty?
25:48Yeah
25:48Of being a greedy, conniving agent
25:52She also stood to profit more from Joe being alive than death
25:56I don't think she killed him
25:57Well, I'm gonna send a uni back out to the Pacific Estates
26:01A couple of those houses haven't released their security tapes
26:03Okay
26:05Meanwhile, let's talk to Dr. Boyd
26:08Hey, Lindsay
26:09I was hoping I'd run into you
26:12I'll, uh, start without you
26:14Can we talk?
26:18Here? Now?
26:19I was thinking the break room?
26:21Uh, we are in the middle of a very important case, so
26:25Please, Lindsay, just one minute
26:27Okay
26:28Okay, this is really awkward for me
26:36I'm not really sure where to start
26:38Uh, if you need more time, we can do this later
26:43No
26:43I can do this
26:45I'm sorry
26:48Excuse me?
26:51I'm sorry
26:52For what?
26:53When we first met
27:02That day in Tom's office, I tried to play it so cool
27:05Like I could care less that Tom was working with his ex-wife again
27:07But truthfully, the whole thing terrified me
27:10I mean, what if he realized he still loved you or something?
27:12No, he doesn't
27:13No, I know, it's stupid
27:14And then, when you walked in on us
27:17The thing with the Italian shirt?
27:19I barely remember that
27:20I was happy
27:20Like I felt like I was staking my claim or something
27:23It's so juvenile
27:24It's understandable
27:25And then yesterday, you were so cute with the kids
27:28Can you forgive me?
27:30Yes
27:31Yes, I can
27:32Thanks
27:34Yeah
27:41Tom always said I'd like you if I just gave it a chance
27:50Well, you seem nervous, Dr. Bowie
27:55Anything you want to ask me is covered under doctor-patient confidentiality
27:59So you don't care that people are starting to say that you were feeding Joe steroids?
28:03For medicinal purposes only
28:05To bring down swelling
28:07What about painkillers?
28:08Seems to me that was to keep him going even when his body said no
28:11Isn't there a policy against over-medicating athletes?
28:14I never once over-medicated Joe
28:16But Joe admitted as much when he got the DUI three years ago
28:18It's always the doctors who take the fall, isn't it?
28:20When the evidence points in that direction, yes
28:22You know what?
28:26Joe is dead
28:26I don't need to protect him anymore
28:28Joe didn't pop too many pills the day he got that DUI
28:33He had a seizure
28:35Due to a TBI
28:36He suffered in a game two weeks prior
28:38Drove off the road
28:39Crashed into a tree
28:39He's lucky no one got hurt
28:41TBI
28:41Traumatic brain injury
28:42Joe asked me to hide the seizure so he could continue to play
28:45I tried to talk him out of it, but he wouldn't listen
28:48Football
28:50That was everything to him
28:52How big of a piece do you need?
28:54Not much
28:55Oh, brains belong inside the head
29:01Sorry
29:02So, Jacoby talked to Dr. Boyd
29:04Joe was neither drunk nor on drugs when he got his DUI three years ago
29:08So what? He was high on life?
29:10He had a seizure
29:11It was a lingering side effect of TBI
29:13Traumatic brain injury
29:15I'm learning football terms
29:16Doesn't TBI go along with what Maurice told Cindy about Joe?
29:19Numbness and tingling
29:20I went back to watch the fight between Joe and Maurice
29:22To see if there was anything we missed
29:24And there's nothing that points to Maurice
29:26But I was able to play around with the video
29:28And zoom in a little bit
29:29And I swear
29:30Right before the fight starts
29:32Joe's hands start shaking like he lost control
29:34Okay
29:35You know how we couldn't identify one of the drugs in Joe's system?
29:39Well, the results came back
29:41It was risaguline
29:42I've never heard of it
29:44It's not exactly in my wheelhouse either
29:46Risaguline
29:47Is a therapeutic drug approved
29:50Last year by the FDA
29:52What is a trait?
29:54That's what I wanted to confirm
29:56Joe Donovan's substantia nigra cells were dying off
30:00And the ones that were left
30:01Are abnormal
30:03English, please
30:03Joe Donovan had Parkinson's disease
30:06Parkinson's is a degenerative disease
30:17Joe could have lived for years
30:19I mean, as an athlete
30:20The thought of losing control of his body
30:21Well, maybe Joe did want to check out
30:24Joe wasn't a quitter
30:26If I didn't know any better
30:29I'd say you respected the guy
30:30Well, I may even watch a game one of these days
30:33You remember the Donovan's nanny?
30:37Three nannies?
30:38No, Julie Getz
30:38The one who was corralling Paris
30:40The morning Joe died
30:41Yeah
30:41She was supposed to be in Napa
30:44But
30:44Her car drove back into Pacific Estates
30:47At 1.30 a.m.
30:49And she exited a little more than
30:51Two hours later
30:52Okay
30:53You wrangle the nanny
30:55I will sweet-talk the tech guys
30:57Into jumping our little video enhancement program
30:59To the front of the line
31:00Here we go
31:01Hey, we got the nanny on video
31:04Heather said that she ran into you
31:06Yeah, she was dropping off cookies
31:08Did she seem weird?
31:10Did she...
31:10Actually, she apologized
31:13To me
31:14How's that for irony?
31:15Look, Linz
31:22Heather can never know about this
31:24That's your call?
31:27It was a mistake
31:27One-time thing
31:28Never happened again
31:30Hey, you showed up on my doorstep
31:33Hey
31:41The techs are still working on the video
31:43Keep your fingers crossed
31:44Is she in there?
31:46Yeah, but listen
31:47If I...
31:47I think I can handle the nanny
31:48What the...
32:00I tried to warn you
32:01The girl is the faucet
32:03Did she say anything?
32:04Oh, lots
32:05Let's see
32:05She stole a candy bar
32:07When she was 12
32:08She once played sick
32:09To go to a White Stripes concert
32:11She borrowed one of Mrs. Donovan's dresses
32:13Without her permission
32:13Did she say anything about Joe Donovan's murder?
32:16Well, not yet
32:17We only made it through Spring 06
32:18Do we have any soothing chamomile tea lying around?
32:22It's okay
32:23We can keep going, I promise
32:26This many tears
32:27You know, someone might look at that as a sign of remorse
32:31You want to tell us what you're sorry about?
32:35It's the kids
32:37I think about them not having their death
32:42And you feel responsible
32:44He was a great guy
32:46Elle, why don't you tell us a little more about Joe?
32:52A lot of players, you know
32:54They don't want to be role models
32:56But Joe took it really seriously
32:59He said he had a reason to stand up and be counted
33:03Stand up and be counted
33:04Those were his exact words?
33:09Why?
33:11Hey
33:12Bob, Mrs. Donovan
33:15I am afraid that I have some really upsetting news
33:18Your nanny, Julie
33:20Drove into Pacific Estates
33:23At 1.30 a.m. the night that Joe was killed
33:26Julie?
33:29She was in Napa
33:30What are you saying?
33:32Your husband and Julie
33:34Had more than an employer-employee relationship
33:37That's not possible
33:40We think that Julie
33:43Drove to your house that night
33:44To have some sort of rendezvous with Joe
33:47And something went horribly awry
33:49My husband would never cheat on me
33:51I know that this is a lot to take in
33:53But if you'll just hear me out, please
33:56Go ahead
33:56But this whole cheating thing is crazy
34:00We've discovered that
34:03Julie regularly picked up
34:05A prescription for resagiline
34:06The prescription was in your son Johnny's name
34:08But it was really for Joe
34:09Resagiline is a drug that is used
34:13To treat Parkinson's disease
34:15It seems that the only person
34:18That he trusted with that information
34:20Was Julie
34:20No, I was the one
34:24Who talked our family doctor
34:25To putting the prescription
34:26In our son's name
34:27So
34:29You knew Joe had Parkinson's?
34:32Of course I did
34:32I was his wife
34:33Joe wanted to keep playing
34:36But the league never would have let him
34:37If they'd known
34:38It was my duty to make it happen
34:40I should get home
34:47And be with my boys
34:48They're going to be devastated
34:49Julie was family
34:52Of course
34:53Just one more thing
35:00The press conference that was scheduled for tomorrow
35:03What about it?
35:05He was going to announce his new contract
35:07I think he was going to announce to the world that he had Parkinson's
35:10Joe wanted to stand up and be counted
35:12That's the kind of man that he was
35:14Wasn't he?
35:17Wait
35:18I'm sorry
35:19There is one more thing that we should discuss
35:21What?
35:24Your confession
35:25Have a seat
35:29Well the good news is
35:38Joe wasn't cheating on you
35:39I told you that
35:41But you did share a lot with Julie
35:43At night
35:44When she was up with your kids
35:46And you were knocked out on sleeping pills
35:47For example
35:49Joe told her that he was afraid
35:52You wouldn't stick with him
35:53Once things got rough
35:54Joe was still in great shape
35:56He was working out harder than ever
35:58I know
35:58His stats actually went up this year
35:59Six years I tried to get her to watch football
36:01One dead body
36:04Suddenly she's an expert on the game
36:06Expert might be too strong a word
36:09She still hasn't figured out
36:11That once you're benched
36:12And a new start has been named
36:14You might on occasion
36:16Make it back into the game
36:17But uh
36:18It's probably better
36:19If you move on to a new team
36:21Sooner or later
36:27You were gonna have to take care of him
36:29In all sorts of unglamorous ways
36:31And you just didn't sign up for that
36:32If you didn't get out now
36:34Before he became a public spokesperson
36:36For his illness
36:37Well then when could you?
36:38I mean come on
36:39Grieving widow
36:40Heartless bitch
36:42Who left her sick husband
36:43You yourself said that you have Julie's car
36:46Driving in the neighborhood
36:47Julie's
36:48Not mine
36:50I think with a little video enhancement
36:52We'll be able to see that
36:53That's you behind the wheel
36:54Julie
36:55I've been thinking a lot about something lately
37:00Mistakes
37:02Some of them you get past
37:05They'll eat you alive for a while
37:09But
37:09Eventually they just fade away
37:12Murder
37:14Is not one of those mistakes
37:16This is the knife
37:20We found next to Joe's body
37:21It has a little imprint
37:23On the handle
37:25You can hardly see it
37:26But
37:26Goshen Catering
37:27Puts those
37:28On their knives
37:29As an identifier
37:30So they can distinguish
37:31Their knives from their clients
37:32Well we must have
37:33Used them for some other event
37:36They
37:36They left it at the house
37:38Goshen Catering
37:39Worked the charity dinner
37:40That you attended
37:41The night that Joe died
37:42Their inventory list
37:43Says that this is the knife
37:44They're missing
37:44Well
37:45Anybody at that party
37:46Could have taken it
37:47You stole the knife
37:48You took Julie's car
37:50And you drove home
37:51To surprise Joe
37:52With a nightcap
37:53And you know what
37:54He was probably happy to see you
37:55You poured him a spike drink
37:57And when he was too weak
37:59To fight back
37:59You slit
38:00His wrists
38:02You killed your children's father
38:08Paris
38:09Confess now
38:19At least he'll know
38:19You're sorry
38:20I want my lawyer
38:23Now
38:25Okay
38:26Just to be clear
38:31You are going to jail
38:33For the rest of your life
38:34When a judge sees this evidence
38:35And hears that you didn't confess
38:37He will have about
38:38As much sympathy for you
38:39As you had for your husband
38:41What'd you do to my son?
38:49Me?
38:49What?
38:50Nothing
38:50He seems to be a little bit
38:52In love with you
38:52We bonded
38:54But where's everybody?
38:56What happened to
38:56Celebration mojitos?
38:58Jill had dinner plans
38:59And Lindsay disappeared
39:00Once Paris was booked
39:01What's going to happen
39:03To Donovan boys?
39:04Moving to Orlando
39:05At least he'll be with family
39:06So
39:08You know how I
39:09Totally won Maurice's trust
39:11With my doe-eyed charm
39:12And razor-sharp knowledge
39:13Of sports stats?
39:15He sent over two box tickets
39:16To Sunday's game
39:17Isn't accepting gifts
39:19Against newspaper policy?
39:21I thought about that
39:21But I don't really cover sports
39:23So I don't see it
39:23As a conflict of interest
39:24Nice rationalization there, Skipper
39:26You'll think so too
39:26When I tell you
39:27That I am
39:29I want to give the tickets
39:33To Nate and Ed
39:34You know
39:36Fathers
39:37Sons
39:38Football
39:39It's a thing
39:40And then my husband's
39:42Going to be in love with you too
39:43Oh I'm glad you're here
39:57You're holding a table
39:58For two off in the corner
40:00Nice mood lighting
40:01And it is
40:02Perfect
40:03It's one seat short
40:05Luke's joining us
40:07A threesome
40:09How sassy
40:10He's in trouble
40:12The hospital's trying
40:16To throw him under the bus
40:17And he needs the best lawyer
40:18In San Francisco
40:18That's you
40:21This is true
40:22But as you pointed out
40:23You can't take on private clients
40:25And as you pointed out
40:26You can't give free advice
40:28In this case
40:32You can be puppet master
40:33To the hospital lawyer's strengths
40:35Luke has no idea
40:39How bad this is
40:40And I don't want him to know
40:41By the way
40:43You and me

40:54Meet Luke Bowen
40:55Well let's go get that table
40:58Let me help a man out
41:20How had you left?
41:24I needed a drinking partner
41:25You don't have to cheer me up
