00:00Oh, it's okay, boy, it's okay, boy, I got you, I got you, I got you.
00:21Is everything all right?
00:24I got you behind him, got the new way behind him.
00:31Yeah.
00:32Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
00:52Hey, hey, hey, hey, Anson, come here, help me.
00:57Oh, my gosh, wow, is he breathing?
00:59Anson, get a minute, somebody, get a minute.
01:02Somebody call for help.
01:13Hey, where are you?
01:14Sorry, sorry, I'm pulling up right now.
01:16All right, book and bag, let's go.
01:18But Anna and Count Vronsky are...
01:19We'll be waiting for you, come on, guys, let's see some hustle.
01:22Yeah, thanks, coach.
01:23There was only one check-out lane open in the store, so the police was a zoo butt.
01:27I got everything on the list.
01:30Elliot, I got your junk cereal, don't tell your mom.
01:33Ava, I got spearmint gum that's at the bottom of one of these two bags, happy fishing.
01:38And most importantly, fresh diapers for my baby Chloe.
01:42Whoa, fragrance and dye-free? What is it, her birthday?
01:45Well, you make it easy for me to do my job by paying for everything.
01:48Speaking of which, can you do pick-ups this afternoon?
01:50Yeah.
01:51Yeah.
01:52Yeah, I have to move a couple things around, but, uh, yes, yep.
01:55Good, great. I love you, have a great day. Bye.
01:56Bye, have a good one.
01:57Oh, shut the back door when you leave.
02:00Yes, I'm on it. Have a good one.
02:02You think of poison?
02:03Well, there's no way to know for sure until I do an autopsy, but it seems the most likely based on what I'm seeing.
02:13The good thing is, I don't believe it's an airborne toxin.
02:16I'll call off hazmat.
02:17Any scene restrictions?
02:18Don't touch anything.
02:19Eyes only until I get a full toxicology done at the lab.
02:22Find out exactly what we're dealing with here.
02:24Hillary with two L's.
02:26Come on.
02:27Hi! Hi!
02:29She's clear. Let her through.
02:32Thank you. Thank you so much. Have a beautiful day.
02:35Seriously? Airport police?
02:38Morgan.
02:39Yeah, I see him. Who is he?
02:41Anson Pierce, founder of a company called Virgo Core Beta Systems.
02:44Just landed from a short flight out of Orange County.
02:47He's a big player in the tech world, developed a popular and controversial social media platform called Enigmafied.
02:52It could turn any video you have into a deep fake within minutes.
02:55A few simple words of direction in Anson's app can transform images of you playing with your kids in the park to you spanking one of your kids in the park.
03:02Oh. Awesome.
03:04It's not terrifying at all.
03:07Please tell me Anson wasn't traveling with a pet.
03:10He was. His dog, Edison.
03:12The animal's fine. It's being evaluated now along with Anson's security team on the pilots.
03:15Go ahead and start processing the inside of the plane.
03:17Yeah.
03:18Geez! Who's that?
03:23No!
03:30Adam?
03:31Ronnie.
03:32This is FBI Special Agent Oliver.
03:34Respectfully because this is an FBI investigation.
03:36Says who?
03:37Well, I don't want to step on anyone's toes here, but you and I both know that any homicide originating in US airspace falls under the jurisdiction of the FBI.
03:44It's too early to determine where the homicide originated.
03:46You know what? It's not too soon to determine who our dead guy got in the fight with back in Orange County on the ground.
03:51I don't think those busted blood vessels are from turbulence.
03:54I'm sorry. Who is she?
03:55Well, I'm standing right here. You could just ask me.
03:57Who are you?
03:59Morgan.
04:00She's a consultant.
04:02I see. It's nice to meet you, Morgan. And you're absolutely right. The peticchio on the victim's neck is highly unusual.
04:09Our medical examiner's already arranged to have the body transported to our morgue, so if we need any assistance on this case, I'll reach out.
04:15I'm just gonna go take a peek around the plane, do my thing.
04:18Whoa, whoa, whoa, not so fast. By law, that aircraft is our crime scene. Only my team should be on the plane for the time being. Would you kindly ask your detectives to step off, please?
04:27Oz! Yeah.
04:32Now look, my concern is that your medical examiner is gonna quickly discover that they are ill-equipped to crack the code on whatever toxin killed our victim, let alone deduce how it was administered.
04:44Here we go.
04:45Based on intel and my intuition, this is not a cyanide in a soup situation. This is far more sophisticated, okay?
04:52The what of this case will be hard, but I guarantee you the how will be harder.
04:57Are you finished?
04:59I'm gonna want to be there for your Emmy's initial findings. I'll see you at your precinct.
05:06All right, so...
05:09Not a fan of the feds?
05:11Some guys are better than others.
05:13And what kind of a guy is Ronnie Oliver?
05:15If you like overbearing federal agents who think they can do no wrong and want to call all the shots, Ronnie would be your guy.
05:21Oh, so you guys have butted heads before.
05:23Yeah, it's been a while.
05:24Well, he called you Adam. The only people I've heard call you Adam are the lieutenant and your mom when she called on your birthday.
05:29That was a private call.
05:30Well, then don't take it in the bullpen.
05:31Morgan, not everything is a puzzle you need to solve.
05:33Come on, clearly you and this special agent have history. I need to know what it is so I can be prepared. Or use it to make fun of you.
05:40He used to be my partner.
05:48That's all I get?
05:49That's all you get.
05:53I really don't think your new partner deserves to know what happened with your last partner?
05:56You and I are not officially partners.
05:57Not officially, but you and I both...
05:59Morgan, um...
06:01I need a favor. It's kind of a big one.
06:03What?
06:04No more questions about Ronnie, okay? Focus on the case. Can we do that?
06:08Yes, let's focus on the case.
06:13Anson Pierce has been the subject of controversy over his social media platform.
06:17It lets users create images and videos that look so real it's impossible to tell what's fake and what's not.
06:22Or it can be used to create misinformation that can impact our politics, destroy reputations, and put people's lives in danger.
06:28Congress has tried to regulate his company for years, but he has an army of lawyers and lobbyists.
06:32No wonder he needed protection.
06:34Hmm.
06:35Where's the security detail now?
06:36Still in the process of being cleared at the hospital.
06:38Yeah, we're getting an ETA on when they can come in for questioning.
06:40And if Anson was poisoned on the plane, that makes them all suspects.
06:43Diana, it's good to see you.
06:45Always a pleasure, Ronnie.
06:46Hold on, they let you in the building?
06:48Lieutenant Soto, so good to see you.
06:50Good to see you.
06:51Wow, it's strange to be back here.
06:53Yeah, strange to have you back.
06:55I hear you're helping us out on one of our cases.
06:57Something like that?
06:58We're waiting on the ME to determine where the murder took place.
07:01That'll determine jurisdiction.
07:02Shouldn't you have a visitor badge or something if you want to be up here?
07:05I won't stay long.
07:06I just figured while we wait on your ME's findings, I'll join you while you question Anson's family and witnesses.
07:11And oh, I'll need the transcripts before I leave, if it's not too much trouble.
07:16Detective, you mind some company?
07:19Why not?
07:24Gloria, we're very sorry for your loss.
07:26Right now, we're just trying to gather as much information as we can.
07:29Well, can you tell us about your son?
07:31When most kids were out kicking a ball or riding bikes, Anson wanted to change the world.
07:36He was nine when I realized his brain works in ways most of ours don't.
07:42How long ago were they partners?
07:54Sorry.
07:55A few years before you got here.
07:56That's okay.
07:57Those two set a record for closing the most cases in a single year.
08:00Take your time.
08:01They were quite the team.
08:03Until they weren't?
08:05It was a rough year for all of us.
08:07Every parent hopes their kid will find something that they're passionate about.
08:12But you never think for a moment that it might make your child a target.
08:18Did Anson ever mention anyone he was concerned about?
08:23All the time.
08:24Jealous competitors, stalkers, every other tech blogger.
08:30I didn't agree with everything Anson did, what parent does.
08:35But his heart was in the right place.
08:38Well, we're gonna check Anson's calendar and see if we can...
08:42Emmy just called up.
08:43Preliminary autopsy on Anson is finished.
08:45His toxicology screen won't come back for a day or two.
08:51So we can't be totally sure he was poisoned.
08:53Or how?
08:54It could be inhaled, ingested, or injected.
08:57And I did find... this.
09:04An injection site?
09:05That's possible, but not likely.
09:07She always liked this?
09:08Yes.
09:09Based on how he died, my guess would be a poison in the anthrax family.
09:13But modified.
09:14Okay, we need to know the makeup of the poison so we can determine who might have created it.
09:17Well, whoever made the poison may not be the person who killed Anson.
09:19Right.
09:20But they'll probably remember who they sold it to.
09:22All due respect, we gotta get this body to my people as soon as possible.
09:32Former Navy SEAL, Coast Guard, and we've got...
09:34Parker.
09:35SWAT team out of Ventura.
09:37So you're still carrying your handcuff key, huh?
09:40Yeah, for, uh...
09:42Good luck.
09:44Cause I wasn't good enough today.
09:45So you have no idea how the guy you were hired to protect was killed?
09:48Believe me, I wish we did.
09:50You don't know or you're not telling us?
09:52You think we had something to do with it?
09:53You know how hard it would be for any of us to find a job now?
09:56Mr. Pierce died on our watch.
09:58What's more upsetting to you?
09:59His life ending or your career?
10:01Hey, I like Mr. Pierce.
10:04But we weren't with him 24-7.
10:06If we do anything, we'd tell you.
10:08Your boss was a very busy man.
10:10Looks like almost every hour of his last week is accounted for here on his schedule.
10:14The only thing that bothers me is that every meeting here is so detailed except for this one. Orange County.
10:19Two hours, no location, no name.
10:21What's that about?
10:23We don't know.
10:27He had us drive him to an office building downtown.
10:30He asked us to wait in the car.
10:32We're gonna need that address.
10:34Morgan, you got anything?
10:39Not yet.
10:40What about you?
10:41None of those security guards confessed?
10:43No, but there's a two-hour window before Anson got on his plane where they claimed to have no idea where he was.
10:47Well, that's not nothing.
10:48I'm heading back to the bureau.
10:50I'll have my team look into the backgrounds of Anson's security team.
10:53As will we.
10:54Okay.
10:55And please expedite the body transfer.
10:56Ronnie, I think you should reconsider.
10:58Adam, it's not personal.
10:59All right, I just think it's best for my team to handle this investigation without interference.
11:03Things will move a lot faster.
11:04Trust me.
11:05Trust you.
11:06Really?
11:07Where'd we get this flash drive?
11:09Found it in Anson's jacket pocket.
11:11Had it processed this morning.
11:12It's not his.
11:13What do you mean?
11:14Anson's first breakthrough in tech was designing a higher capacity flash drive his sophomore year at Taft High School.
11:19His company still makes them today.
11:21So why would he have a flash drive from one of his competitors in his coat pocket? He wouldn't.
11:25Let's see what's on that drive.
11:33Wait, what happened?
11:34Is your computer down too?
11:35I don't know.
11:36It just happened.
11:37It just happened.
11:38What's going on?
11:39What the hell happened?
11:40The hard drive we found on Anson must have had malware that breached our firewall.
11:54I'm running every antivirus program I can.
11:56Well, keep trying until something works.
11:58If someone wanted what this malware is doing to us to happen to Anson.
12:00Well, if someone was able to give a hard drive to Anson, then they were close enough to poison him, too.
12:03Oz, pull any and all CCTV on Anson's whereabouts in Orange County before he boarded his plane to L.A.
12:09Whoever gave that flash drive to Anson is our prime suspect.
12:11Got it.
12:12I'll head to the field office and get a tech team to do a sweep for satellite video.
12:15Great.
12:16We can use all the help we can get.
12:17Until we're back online, there's nothing else we can do here.
12:19You two go with him.
12:28So, do we need to go over the rules?
12:30Rules?
12:31Let's just get in, get out, remind the FBI for any information we can use on the case, and get back home.
12:38Are you worried I'm going to embarrass you?
12:40Not at all.
12:41I'm just saying let's both be on our best behavior, okay?
12:43Always.
12:45Ma'am, I'm going to have to ask you to empty your bag.
12:48You got it.
12:55Applesauce.
12:58Agent Oliver.
12:59Hey, everyone.
13:00This is Detective Karadek from the LAPD and his consultant.
13:03Guillory.
13:04Nice to meet you all.
13:05All right.
13:06Reena's one of our top profilers and was just about to take us through.
13:08Yeah, great.
13:10Okay.
13:11Now, based upon what we know about Anson Pierce's murder, and data from a wide range of crimes like this, I believe the killer was likely a single white male.
13:18Educated, but unemployed.
13:19Someone in his orbit.
13:20Likely a professional contact who had the ability to get close.
13:24Do you have something you want to add?
13:25Uh, just, yeah, that's definitely a possibility.
13:34You got another one?
13:36Well, I don't have any formal training in profiling.
13:39We know.
13:40Uh-huh.
13:41Yeah.
13:42Of course you do.
13:44Let's see.
13:46Based on my own data called gut instinct, given Anson's polarizing views on technology, I think it is possible that the killer could be a shut-in who hated Anson.
14:00Um, a Luddite who disliked technology.
14:02Somebody who was pissed off at what the company was doing.
14:04Right?
14:05Because this just feels like a personal thing to me.
14:08You think my profile's off?
14:11Didn't, didn't I just explain that?
14:15Tech team just found this.
14:18Enhance that image.
14:20That must be the flash drive we found in Anson's pocket.
14:23Apply facial recognition and run it through the system.
14:25How long is that gonna take?
14:27Already found him.
14:29Huh.
14:30Simon Keating.
14:31Looks like he's unemployed and single.
14:33Nice work, Reno.
14:34All right.
14:35Let's bring this guy in.
14:37When did this happen?
14:41Shortly after you slipped that flash drive into his pocket.
14:44So?
14:45Did you kill him?
14:47Are you serious?
14:48Yeah, I am.
14:49He's dead.
14:50And you got real close.
14:52I was just trying to get his attention.
14:55Okay, he didn't understand how much we had in common, how much I could help him.
15:00I needed Anson to realize that his cybersecurity infrastructure was being spearheaded by maladroit morons.
15:05I wanted to protect him from the white hats.
15:08They're ethical minded super hackers that are not to be trifled with.
15:11So you want me to believe that you're a hacker who tried to protect Anson from other hackers by hacking him?
15:16Not quite that simple, but close enough.
15:19You know what else is not so simple?
15:21The poison that killed Anson.
15:23The good news is his body is landing at our toxicology lab within the hour.
15:27Which means we'll get to the bottom of what toxin was used and who used it real soon.
15:31Real soon.
15:32We'll keep you in holding until then.
15:34Plenty of sunshine and blue skies on tap for you.
15:38We'll take you a little bit.
15:40I can't help you.
15:41I can't help you.
15:42I can't help you.
15:43I can't help you.
15:44I can't help you.
15:46Who is it? Who is it?
15:47Team Team Bendy, what's up?
15:52Don't shoot.
15:54Okay, okay.
15:55Alright.
15:59What's happening?
16:16I don't think Rina the profiler and I are going to be friends.
16:19Well, you know, Morgan, I think the fact that Anson's body just got blown up might take precedence.
16:23That's fair.
16:24Mike, please, tell me we got a lead on whoever attacked our coroner.
16:27CSI is processing the scene.
16:28So far, nothing.
16:29Not a single witness?
16:30Nothing?
16:32Anson's body should have never come here in the first place.
16:34No one could have anticipated this would happen, Ronnie.
16:37It's becoming painfully clear that some things never change.
16:39What's that supposed to mean?
16:40It means stop being so stubborn and admit you made the wrong call.
16:43The wrong call about what?
16:44Staying on this case.
16:45My team doesn't need assistance.
16:47It's causing too many problems.
16:48We don't got to turn this into some kind of contest.
16:51Contest?
16:52We're doing our job, same as you.
16:53Oz, right?
16:54Yeah.
16:55Do me a favor.
16:56Stay in your lane.
16:57And you do me a favor.
16:58Show us some respect in our house.
17:00You don't live here anymore.
17:01Daphne?
17:02Nope.
17:03That is my partner you're talking to.
17:04Choose your words carefully.
17:05Sounds like a warning, detective.
17:07How perceptive.
17:08Lieutenant, you gonna step in here?
17:10No.
17:11Maybe we should all just get back to work.
17:13Oh.
17:14Good idea.
17:15Let me just hit somebody at the bureau to see if they can help put Anson's body back together piece by piece.
17:20I don't know if I ever mentioned it to you guys, but I was in labor for two hours with my third baby before she popped out.
17:27There she was.
17:28Brand new person in the world.
17:30The point is, a lot can happen in 120 minutes, so instead of doing whatever this is that you guys are doing, maybe we circle back to that mystery meeting that Anson had the day before he died.
17:39Yeah, because poisoning Anson and orchestrating an attack to destroy evidence feels like a lot for one person to pull off.
17:44Ann Simon's been in holding all day and couldn't have done it.
17:46You think our killer was working with a partner?
17:48I do. So maybe whoever Anson met in that two hour time window was the one who poisoned him.
17:51Okay, so are we compiling a list of experts who could make a poison like the one that killed Anson?
17:55Do you really think I don't already have a digital dossier with multiple suspects waiting for me back at the field office?
18:00Keeping things from us is not going to help solve this case.
18:03Oh, and you think sharing confidential files with, I don't know, a consultant will?
18:07Yes, it will. So tag her in and let her show you what she can do.
18:10You know, it's starting to feel like when I left this place, you done lost your mind.
18:13You know what, Ronnie? I'll make you a deal.
18:16You show us all your intel, and if we come up empty, we'll back off the case.
18:25What do you say?
18:27Meet me at my office.
18:29You come up short, you're out.
18:37Look, I don't care who gets credit for solving this case. I just want it solved.
18:47Don't let personal feelings get in the way of figuring out who killed Anson.
18:50I hear you, but I...
18:51But what?
18:53The FBI has information that we need to see, Selena.
18:56That Morgan needs to see. Now, how else are we going to get our hands on it unless I offered up something in return?
19:00Fine. I know your history. If you have something to prove, you better not let it get in the way of this case.
19:05I will never let that happen.
19:07But right now, we're just a distraction for him, especially Morgan.
19:10He sees her exactly the same way I used to before I realized how valuable she really is.
19:14And I know it's a big risk, but it's one I'm willing to take.
19:17Let's hope it pays off.
19:26All right, Morgan. Here's a handful of terabytes of information to sift through.
19:31Terabytes. Of course.
19:34Sure you want to do this?
19:35Oh, yeah. Piece of cake.
19:37What else can you tell her about the intel before she dives in?
19:39There are roughly a dozen toxicologists on our radar for various reasons.
19:43My team is still in the process of discovering which one might have had motive to kill Lanson.
19:47Hopefully I can help.
19:49All right. Have at it.
20:13All right.
20:17I think I've seen enough.
20:32It's already morning. Maybe we should get some rest.
20:34You know, there is such a thing as too much information.
20:40I just wish I had something a little more concrete.
20:44Well, what about him?
20:45You keep circling back to this guy over and over again. Why?
20:48Kenneth Sutton was a board-certified medical toxicologist at California Poison Control for a decade.
20:53He quit three years ago and went off the grid after his daughter died. Her name was Julie.
20:58What happened to her?
20:59She took her own life when misinformation was spread about her on Anson's AI platform. She was 24.
21:04Okay. Well, there's motive.
21:05Yeah. And the FBI went and visited Kenneth right after Anson's murder.
21:08Did they? Well, it certainly would have been nice if they'd share that information with us.
21:11Yeah. And here's the weird thing. According to their files, Kenneth only left his apartment on Wednesdays to go put flowers on his daughter's grave.
21:18You mean no other contact with the outside world?
21:20It doesn't look like it. And Ronnie's team pulled these photos from the surveillance cameras at the Verdugo Hills Cemetery. That's it. There's no other record of him going anywhere on any other day.
21:36Why would you wear gloves to put flowers on a grave?
21:41You wouldn't.
21:42He's not wearing gloves in any of these other cemetery visits. Only this one. And look at the date.
21:49That's two days before Anson's murder.
21:51I think he was wearing gloves to protect himself from the poison that he hid in the flowers. Poison he put there so somebody else could come and pick it up and kill Anson with it.
22:01I don't know how, but I think you did it.
22:05Let's go talk to Kenneth.
22:06Yeah.
22:07Good morning.
22:10Hey, how's everyone doing over there?
22:12Uh, we're all good here. Just, uh, trying to feed our little lady before I do drop off.
22:17Be right there. Um, I bet you can imagine why I'm calling.
22:23How late are you gonna be?
22:24It's tough to say.
22:25Oh, are you kidding me?
22:27Are you sure everything's alright?
22:28Yeah, yeah, uh, just, um, I don't think I can stay over again tonight.
22:34That's okay, I should be home by, like, dinner at the latest.
22:36I-I can't clear my whole schedule.
22:38Ludo, I know this is a lot, but it's kind of what we both signed up for.
22:41No, I know. I know. You're right. I got it.
22:44Okay. All right, I'll see you tonight.
22:45Mm-hmm.
22:55It's Ronnie. Leave a message.
22:57Hey, Ronnie. We're pretty sure we know who made the poison that killed Anson.
23:01A guy named Kenneth Sutton. 75 Edenhurst, Apartment 406. We're just getting there now.
23:05Call me back.
23:15Kenneth Sutton. Detective Adam Karadek, LAPD. Need to ask you a couple questions about the death of Anson Pierce.
23:20I already spoke to the FBI.
23:22Yeah, we know you did, but they didn't ask about the gloves you were wearing the other day when you went to put flowers on your daughter's grave.
23:27We know why you wanted Anson dead. You blamed him for your daughter's suicide.
23:31Kenneth! Kenneth, freeze!
23:32Kenneth!
23:33Kenneth!
23:34Kenneth, freeze!
23:35Kenneth!
23:36There he is!
23:37Freeze!
23:38No, no, no! Don't do it! Your leg will never make it!
23:41Oh my god!
23:42Ah!
23:43Damn it, Kenneth!
23:44Let's see what Kenneth's apartment has to say.
23:45This feels awful.
23:46Shhh.
23:47Shhh.
23:48Shhh.
23:49Shhh.
23:50Shhh.
23:51Shhh.
23:52Shhh.
23:53Did you know that deep fake video of Julie was only 31 seconds long?
23:54It took one bully less than a minute.
23:55Shhh.
23:56Shhh.
23:57Shhh.
23:58Shhh.
23:59Shhh.
24:00Shhh.
24:01Shhh.
24:02Shhh.
24:03Shhh.
24:04Shhh.
24:05Shhh.
24:06Shhh.
24:07Shhh.
24:08Shhh.
24:09Shhh.
24:10Shhh.
24:11Shhh.
24:12Shhh.
24:13Shhh.
24:14Shhh.
24:15Shhh.
24:16Shhh.
24:17Shhh.
24:18Shhh.
24:19Shhh.
24:20Shhh.
24:21Shhh.
24:22Shhh.
24:23Shhh.
24:24Shhh.
24:25Shhh.
24:26Shhh.
24:27Shhh.
24:28Shhh.
24:29Shhh.
24:30Shhh.
24:31Shhh.
24:32Shhh.
24:33Shhh.
24:34Shhh.
24:35Shhh.
24:36Shhh.
24:37Shhh.
24:38Shhh.
24:39Shhh.
24:40Shhh.
24:41Shhh.
24:42Shhh.
24:43Shhh.
24:44Shhh.
24:45Shhh.
24:46Shhh.
24:47Shhh.
24:48Shhh.
24:49Shhh.
24:50style is much more methodical, whereas crickets like to have things very neat
24:55and orderly with just a couple of sentimental items front and center.
24:59And what's a butterfly? Butterflies like to have everything out in the open so
25:04there's quick and easy access to everything, much like Kenneth does or did.
25:09Now I am a ladybug and you my friend you're a cricket. Morgan. We can talk
25:14about it later. Or never. I'll probably squeeze it in somewhere. So while it might
25:17look on the outside like Kenneth is a pack rat, he's not. Everything here was
25:21important to him. Everything had purpose.
25:23Let's just hope we can find something here which leads us to whoever he was
25:26working with. No TV, no computer, no technology of any kind so he must have
25:32been partnering with somebody who was tech savvy, someone like Simon. Looks like the
25:36FBI just landed. I'll handle this. Should be fun.
25:41Tell me it's not true. A suspect is dead. We tried to stop him. You shouldn't have tried
25:46anything. I called you. You didn't answer. As I predicted, Morgan came through. Now we're
25:50even further away from solving this case. Or are we one step closer to solving this
25:54case? Oh, what? You got a confession before he jumped?
25:57Ronnie. Come on, brother. We can't keep working like this. I can admit maybe I was
26:03letting some of the past get in the way of how I was handling the case. That's on me.
26:07But the bottom line is this thing that we're doing, it's not good for either side.
26:12There shouldn't be any sides, man. I walked right into that one, didn't I?
26:22You know, I still know you pretty well. And that's why I know you want to solve this
26:25case just as badly as we do and for all the right reasons. Just like we used to do back
26:30in the day. Hmm? We're always the calm of it. Apparently, I still am. All right, man. Look,
26:41let's just, uh, process the scene. See if we can find anything that leads us to wherever Kenneth
26:46is working with. Hey, Morgan. Ronnie's team is pulling security footage from Verduga Hill Cemetery
26:56to see who picked up that poison. Great. Let's just hope whoever it was didn't know there were
27:00security cameras or they would have made sure we couldn't get a good look at them. Yeah. Here's hoping.
27:08You miss it, don't you? Being his partner.
27:14It's okay. I'm not going to have hurt feelings if you do.
27:17Yeah. Yeah, I guess I do miss the guy. I mean, he was more than my partner. He was my friend.
27:22So you just don't like how it ended?
27:26We had a few bad seeds in the department who wanted to see the two top detectives go down.
27:31Some evidence went missing from one of our cases. Pretty large sum of money from the crime scene.
27:36I guess it looked like we were on the take.
27:42Okay. You don't want to talk about it. That's okay.
27:48It was an honest mistake, Morgan.
27:50The money was incorrectly logged into the evidence file. One wrong digit, a nine. It should have been a zero.
27:57And it looked like we had stolen the money.
27:59Things got messy. Rumors started flying. Ronnie saw an opportunity at the FBI and he took it.
28:04Took it and ran. Left me to clear both of our names, which I did.
28:08Weathered the storm, but I definitely got wet.
28:11People around here didn't look at me the same for a long time after that.
28:13Even though you didn't do anything wrong?
28:15Mm-hmm. And Ronnie, he was gone.
28:18Wait a minute.
28:22What's this?
28:23What are you doing? What's your face doing?
28:26Pretty sure that's what my face looks like when I've got something. Do you have something?
28:30We thought Anson was in some kind of altercation the day he died, right?
28:34Yeah, what? You don't?
28:35Well, I mean, if he didn't mention it to his security team, the team that he paid to keep him safe, then maybe these marks on his body weren't from a fight.
28:45Uh, oh, you think he was in a different kind of encounter? One where he was a willing participant?
28:52Well, a two-hour mystery meeting.
28:53Sounds like we need to talk to the person he was meeting with in Orange County.
28:56Yeah, I'm gonna get Ronnie's help on this.
28:58Have him get some footage of the back exit of the office building.
29:02I think that Anson was just passing through on his way to a more comfortable spot for his meeting.
29:09Oh, Adam and Morgan, welcome back.
29:11Nice work to our partners at the LAPD who helped to lead us to.
29:15Aria Vale, she checked into the Borzai Hotel in Orange County the night before Anson's death.
29:20What do we know about her?
29:21Well, she runs a non-profit that tries to regulate AI and online technology,
29:25and she made no secret about her desire to shut down Anson's company.
29:29Yeah, we think she might have found another way to shut him down.
29:30No.
29:31I have so many questions for this woman.
29:33Well, so do I, which is why I have a team tracking her down as we speak.
29:37Give me a second.
29:38Mm-hmm.
29:39Hi.
29:40Mom, it's Dad.
29:41I, he, he just...
29:43Wait, Elliot?
29:44Honey, slow down.
29:45What's going on?
29:45He just collapsed.
29:46What?
29:47Is he breathing?
29:48You know what?
29:49I'm gonna call 911, okay?
29:50No, no ambulance.
29:51It's okay.
29:52I'm fine.
29:53He keeps saying no.
29:54What do you want us to do?
29:55Just keep an eye on him, all right?
29:57Everything's gonna be okay.
29:57I'll be right there.
30:02Thanks.
30:06Hey.
30:07Are you okay?
30:08I think I recognize that voice.
30:11Is that the mother of my children?
30:13What happened?
30:14I got lightheaded and I fainted, but I'm fine, really.
30:19Okay.
30:19Is Chloe down?
30:20Yeah, she's asleep.
30:21Where's Elliot?
30:22He's outside on the porch.
30:24Okay.
30:25Can you give us a second?
30:26Hmm?
30:32Do you, do you want to talk about it?
30:34Not really, no.
30:36Look, I was probably dehydrated and didn't eat enough food, but I'm good now.
30:40I'm sorry.
30:41Why are you sorry?
30:42None of this is your fault.
30:43I'm just having you do so much with the kids, and you're really picking up the slack around
30:47here, and I just feel really bad.
30:48Yeah, because I want to.
30:49When you and I split up, we agreed we're going to remain a family no matter what.
30:54That's what I'm doing.
30:56I know.
30:57And I couldn't do this without you.
30:59And I don't want to.
31:00I feel the same.
31:05Ooh.
31:05Thanks.
31:07I'm going to go check on Elliot.
31:08Yeah, please do.
31:09I think he's a little freaked out.
31:11I know that the two of you remember everything that ever happened, but if you can find a way
31:15to erase the memory of his father face planting on the kitchen tile, I'd really appreciate
31:18it.
31:19Sorry I missed it.
31:20You need a blanket out here?
31:28Well, I'm okay.
31:32That was pretty scary, huh?
31:36Yeah.
31:37You know what?
31:37Your dad is just fine.
31:39But I'll have him go to the doctor tomorrow just to be safe.
31:42They should probably order an MRI or an echo.
31:44I read that dizziness could be a sign of a silent heart attack or a coronary spasm that
31:49can lead to a myocardial infarction.
31:54The internet's a dangerous place.
31:57Apparently so is our kitchen.
32:00You're worrying.
32:01I can tell.
32:03It's okay.
32:04I'm worried too.
32:06You are?
32:07Oh, yeah.
32:08Sometimes my mind can take me to places I don't want to go.
32:11Does that ever happen to you?
32:13It did today.
32:15Thoughts are hard to control.
32:16You know, especially when you've got a brain like you and I do.
32:21But we are in charge.
32:23And the trick is to focus on the stuff that you do want, not the stuff that you don't.
32:28I don't think I can.
32:32It's not always easy.
32:34I know.
32:34But I guess we've got to ask ourselves, do we want to be scared?
32:40Or do we want to notice all of the wonderful things that are happening right around us?
32:45Like what?
32:47Like the fact that my son called me today because his dad needed help and that made me so proud.
32:52Like the fact that we're all here tonight under one roof, safe and sound.
32:57But for tonight, you're all mine.
32:58And I'm grateful for that.
33:03Me too.
33:07Okay, okay.
33:08I can't breathe.
33:09You can breathe fine.
33:10If you couldn't breathe, you wouldn't be able to talk.
33:12Oh.
33:15Anton felt that you were resisting the inevitable evolution of humans and technology together.
33:21He said, quote,
33:23Aria Vell fears the inevitable and hates freedom.
33:26Look, we met up a few times to try to find common ground.
33:31And?
33:32We both decided that we were wasting each other's time.
33:37Here it comes.
33:40Here comes what?
33:42One word.
33:44You familiar with the get the curals?
33:46The ancient sculpture?
33:47Well, people thought it was.
33:49Until a famous art scholar by the name of Pierre Paul took one look at it and uttered one word.
33:58Fake.
33:59No proof.
34:00Just his intuition.
34:02Old Pierre had the ability to identify what was real and what wasn't based on a gut feeling.
34:09Okay.
34:10I can do it, too.
34:11You know what word comes to mind when I see you?
34:18Liar.
34:23Now you're acting surprised.
34:25It never gets old.
34:27And I ain't buying that, either.
34:29So what do you say?
34:29You ready to start telling me the truth?
34:31During one of our meetings, things got heated.
34:37That's how he got the bruises on his neck and wrists?
34:40Yes.
34:41A collar and wrist restraints.
34:43You know, a guy dies from poison just hours after you saw him.
34:47I didn't poison him.
34:49Can you explain this?
34:51That's from my earring.
34:53It poked him and we laughed about it.
34:57Anything else you want to tell me?
34:59Yeah.
35:00I think I need a lawyer.
35:02Based on cell tower triangulation, neither Simon nor Aria came anywhere near Julia's grave in the days leading up to Anson's murder.
35:08Hmm.
35:09So neither of them are the person in this photo retrieving the poison?
35:12You know, unless maybe they pulled that trick that we came across with our suspect in the pawn shop homicide case.
35:17He left his cell at home to shore up his alibi.
35:19You remember that one?
35:19Oh, you mean Abe's smoke shop murder on Crenshaw Boulevard?
35:23No, I'm fairly certain it was Mr. P's pawn on Sentinella.
35:25You want to make this interesting?
35:26What do we make it interesting?
35:27Welcome back.
35:27Is Ludo okay?
35:29Yes, thank you.
35:30Where are we?
35:30I'm still trying to connect Aria or Simon to Kenneth.
35:33Yeah, but I think it may be time to open it up to other suspects.
35:36I just don't buy that Kenneth didn't have more contact with whoever he was working with.
35:39Yeah, I agree, but there's no evidence that he met with anyone else.
35:42I mean, we checked his friends, his family, his colleagues.
35:44But Kenneth was a butterfly.
35:47A what?
35:48His organizing style.
35:49Everything in his place had purpose.
35:51See these books right here?
35:53I mean, they look completely untouched.
35:54Hard copy still wrapped in plastic.
35:57Louisa May Alcott.
36:03You familiar?
36:03Enough to know one of her most famous quotes.
36:06It takes two flints to make a fire.
36:11Yeah, I think those books belong to Kenneth's daughter.
36:13Parker had a flint hanging on his keychain, most likely a gift from Julie.
36:16I bet there is more than just a spark between him and our Louisa May Alcott enthusiast.
36:21I think Julie and Parker were in a relationship when she died.
36:25Okay, so you're saying Kenneth and Parker hatched a plan to kill Anson in retribution for Julie's death.
36:30Makes perfect sense.
36:31Parker had all the right credentials to work his way onto Anson's security detail.
36:33And we know Kenneth made the poison.
36:35Kenneth had dog collars in his apartment, but no dog.
36:38I bet the poison was placed in the dog collar and hidden inside the flowers that Kenneth left at Julie's grave.
36:44Parker must have picked up the flowers and put the collar on Anson's dog, which made contact with his skin on the flight.
36:49Time for him to tell us.
36:57Karadek, we got a big problem.
36:59How big?
36:59My apprehension team just made it to Parker's hotel.
37:02He must have seen us coming because he's long gone.
37:04Can you do some sort of satellite facial tracking or something?
37:07Yeah, already in the works.
37:08Screen two.
37:10Our problem's about to get a whole lot bigger if he's heading back to the Valley Airport.
37:13Anson's jet is still there.
37:14He could be making a run for it.
37:16We'll tag in TSA to stop him.
37:17Forrester.
37:18Daphne, I need you here.
37:19Now.
37:20Got it.
37:20On my way.
37:26Hey.
37:31No communication with air traffic control.
37:33Understand?
37:34What?
37:36Just like old times.
37:38And new times.
37:39Let's just hope this plan works.
37:42Let's go, let's go!
37:45How long till we're in the air?
37:48Five minutes or so.
37:49Daphne, how are we looking?
37:52We're doing our best.
37:53Simon's a little frazzled.
37:54This is incredibly challenging.
37:56We'll keep trying.
37:57We're running out of time.
37:57Yeah, I can see that.
38:00Come on, go!
38:00Go!
38:01Go!
38:01Okay, okay, okay, okay.
38:04What did you do?
38:05Nothing.
38:05Nothing, I swear.
38:06Why?
38:07Why did that happen?
38:07I don't know.
38:08I don't know.
38:08Everything just shut down.
38:16Freeze!
38:17Hold it!
38:18LAPD!
38:19FBI!
38:19Drop it!
38:20Drop the weapon now!
38:21Put the weapon down!
38:22Parker, put the gun on the ground!
38:24Do it!
38:25Now!
38:25Unless you want to meet Kenneth on the other side!
38:27Move it!
38:40Move it!
38:41Stop her!
38:42Stay up!
38:42Cuff them!
38:50All right, move.
38:55First time packing to the motherboard of an airplane?
38:57First and last.
39:04Pretty nice view, right?
39:06Oh, I've seen better.
39:08Souvenir.
39:09You know, I almost took one of these earlier.
39:11Almost.
39:12Thanks.
39:14I'm sure you saw the press release from Anson's mother.
39:16I did.
39:17Yeah.
39:17Wow.
39:18Looks like she's gonna lobby to regulate all of her son's platforms.
39:22Hopefully there's not another tragedy like Julie's in the future.
39:24I'm into that.
39:30I'm sorry, Adam.
39:32Probably should have said that a while ago,
39:34but it turns out I'm even more stubborn than you are.
39:38Yeah, man, I saw an exit, and I took it.
39:42And I left you to clean up the mess for both of us, which you did.
39:47But in many ways, you're the reason I'm here.
39:51Now, you would have still made it on your own, even without my own.
39:54Yeah, I probably would have.
39:56But I still owe you one.
39:57No, you do not.
39:58Yeah, I do.
39:59Which is why I'd like to put in a word for you with the special agent in charge.
40:05So?
40:06What do you say?
40:07Morgan, I need to tell you something.
40:18Hmm.
40:19Ronnie offered me a job.
40:21He wants to partner with me again.
40:24Wow!
40:25Hmm.
40:27What'd you say?
40:28I said no.
40:29Okay, when I worked at the DMV,
40:35and a big rig driver named Rufus suggested that I be a pretty decent long hauler,
40:39I at least slept on it before I told him, absolutely not.
40:42I don't need to sleep on it.
40:43This is where I want to be.
40:46And I have a new partner now.
40:47What did you just say?
40:50You heard me.
40:51I mean, plus you saw the FBI, Morgan.
40:53I mean, the gadgets, the tech, the bells, the whistles.
40:56It would make our job way too easy, wouldn't it?
40:59Yeah, yeah.
41:00I mean, how are we going to, you know,
41:01take all the credit and brag about everything
41:03if the computers are doing all the work?
41:04That's what I'm saying.
41:06All right.
41:06Well, then I guess I'll see you tomorrow, partner.
41:10I'll be here.
41:11This seems like a bad idea.
41:20I don't think you have enough information to determine that.
41:23Hey, hey, no peeking.
41:24I'm not, I'm not.
41:27Claire, ready?
41:29Take it off.
41:32Ta-da.
41:33Oh, I thought I smelled tacos.
41:35Mom even got those nachos with the disgusting cheese you like.
41:39Well, it's called Queso Oaxaca.
41:41She's letting us eat on the couch and we're watching 2001.
41:44A space odyssey?
41:45With all of us?
41:46If the kids can get through the monkey part.

41:49Oh, God forbid.
41:50He learned something.
41:53You got it.

42:00I'm glad you're okay, Dad.
42:01Hey, me too, buddy.
42:03Can I press Y?
42:03Go nuts.
42:04Go nuts.
42:09Oh, boy.
42:09Ew, no, gross.
42:10It's a fork or something.
42:11Seriously, who raised you?
42:13I had nothing to do with it.
42:14Don't look at me.
42:14That is kind of gross, buddy, here.
42:18Oh, my God.
42:19What have I gotten myself into?
42:20So good, right?
42:21The good side of things.
42:39Hey, so faster.
42:57Ha!
42:58Ah!
42:59Stop!
