00:005, 6, 7, 8
00:05H-O-T-T-O-G-O
00:07Snapping, clapping, touchy-toes
00:09H-O-T-T-O-G-O
00:11H-O-T-T-O-G-O
00:14You can take me hard to go
00:17H-O-T-T-O-G-O
00:21You can take me hard to go
00:25Hey, buddy
00:39Oh!
01:02Updates on Willa Quinn.
01:03Still keeping a low profile since she landed in L.A.
01:06I checked with County.
01:07She tried to visit Eric Hayworth in jail two days ago.
01:09You were right to put her on the restricted visitors list.
01:11They turned her away.
01:12I'm sure she loved that.
01:14Let's put Hayworth in protective custody.
01:17You think she'd send an inmate after him?
01:19I don't know what that woman would do.
01:21Hayworth mentioned her and Roman Sinquera's abduction.
01:23I'm sure she wants to silence him.
01:25Let's not give her a chance.
01:27What about our wiretap? Are we up yet?
01:28I put in the request, but the D.A.'s dragging their feet, as usual.
01:31I'll stay on them.
01:32Captain Wagner also pulled some strings
01:34and got a surveillance detail in her hotel.
01:36They're keeping track of who's coming and going.
01:38Nothing notable yet, but they'll keep it supposed to.
01:42Oh, in the meantime, duty calls.
01:44Bodies spotted on a building in Mid-City.
01:46You mean in a building?
01:48No, on.
01:49Multiple 911 calls about it dangling off the side.
01:53I'll text you the address and have Morgan meet you there.
02:03This building is...
02:05I don't know what this building is.
02:06Looks like somebody dropped some spaghetti on the blueprints
02:09and just kind of went with it.
02:10Hmm.
02:11Tyler Villanueva, 24.
02:13Extensive rap sheet.
02:14Hmm.
02:15Let me guess.
02:17Vandalism.
02:20Looks like he's been busy, huh?
02:21Yeah.
02:22Blunt force trauma.
02:23Vic was hit with a hard cylindrical object before he fell.
02:26Not sure what yet.
02:27Been dead for a few hours, so killed early this morning.
02:30So they found him hanging off the side of the building?
02:32Witnesses spotted him caught on an architectural feature there.
02:36Unis think he was two floors up when he was struck.
02:38Fell over a balcony.
02:39Poor guy.
02:41Ready to take a look?
02:50Set a cylindrical object to the head, right?
02:55Well, I don't think spray cans are hard enough to cause that kind of damage.
02:58Wow.
02:59This is very...
03:00Disgusting.
03:02Hmm.
03:02No.
03:03I was going to say cool, because it's art.
03:05Vandalism is not art, Morgan.
03:07It's a misdemeanor, and misdemeanors are not cool.
03:09Right.
03:10Yeah, no.
03:11Totally right.
03:11Mr. Minos are not cool.
03:14You never paid it over or anything when you were a kid?
03:16Right.
03:17I forgot.
03:17You weren't a kid when you were a kid.
03:19It is hot in here, huh?
03:21No wonder Tyler tagged at night.
03:22Well, it's an abandoned building.
03:24That means no utilities.
03:25Can't just turn on the A.C.
03:30Yeah, we got blood over here.
03:34Looks like the Vic was struck here.
03:36Fled as a salient.
03:38That way.
03:38Probably disoriented.
03:40Already losing blood.
03:41Hit the ledge and went over.
03:43Sound about right?
03:48This is the last piece Tyler was working on before he got killed.
03:51The colors match the paint on his hands.
03:54Defunct.
03:55Must be his tag grenade?
03:56Mm-hmm.
03:56Yeah, but check this out.
03:58This is not Tyler's.
03:59He was ragging somebody else's work before he got killed.
04:02What's ragging?
04:03Ragging, capping, painting over.
04:05Oh.
04:06Roman, huh?
04:07Mm-hmm.
04:07Yeah, the L.A. graffiti scene is how he got his start as a muralist.
04:10He said that taggers live by a code.
04:13Does that code mean some spray paint can get you killed?
04:17Well, if a tagger does some quick line work and somebody rags it, not a big deal.
04:23But if the artist did line work and started to add some shading, and then somebody paints over it, not
04:28cool, but also not the end of the world.
04:31But painting over a completed piece that took time and skill, that's a problem.
04:39And that could get violent.
04:41Or in this case, deadly.
04:42Okay, well, I'll have forensics process this area and tell everybody else what we're thinking.
04:47Yeah, okay.
04:48I'll see you when you land.
04:50Morgan and Karadak are coming back from the crime scene.
04:52The victim was a tagger who went by the name defunct.
04:55Sadly prophetic.
04:56Yeah.
04:57And they think the killer might be a rival artist.
04:59You got a name of the rival?
05:00Not yet.
05:00Just some graffiti they left behind?
05:02The gang unit keeps a graffiti binder.
05:04To track activity throughout the city, I'll put in a call.
05:07Hello, Selena.
05:12You know, catch him at a bad time.
05:22I wonder how long Soto's going to let her sweat in there.
05:25Does she look like she's sweating to you?
05:27We're going to figure out the connection between Willa and Roman.
05:29We just don't have the answers yet.
05:31No, we certainly don't.
05:32So maybe we're asking the wrong questions.
05:34Uh, Morgan, whatever you're thinking about doing, don't.
05:37She's not under arrest.
05:38There's no reason I can't speak to her.
05:39I know that this is extremely frustrating, but you need to let Soto handle this.
05:44Any luck on the binders?
05:45Flagged a few that could be the tagger, but...
05:47But they're not.
05:48You sure?
05:49Yeah, I flipped through it.
05:50Tagger styles are very specific.
05:52Letter shape, spray speed.
05:54Our guy's not in there.
05:55We want to find that guy.
05:56We need someone connected to the graffiti scene.
05:58Taggers aren't known to help cops.
06:00I know someone who will.
06:01I already called her.
06:04I know.
06:05I know it's hard for you to take a back seat on this.
06:07Hayworth didn't pull her name out of nowhere.
06:09She knows what happened to Roman.
06:10You're right.
06:10And I have a plan.
06:12Trust me.
06:19I hope our interrogation room isn't too unpleasant.
06:22Our ballroom's being renovated.
06:24A room's a room.
06:25So?
06:27What brings you to L.A.?
06:29Well, after what you told me in New York, I had to come and clear my good name.
06:32Is that right?
06:34If Eric Hayworth is making accusations against me, I need to get to the bottom of it.
06:39I need to clear it up and put it to bed.
06:41Well, Mr. Hayworth is unavailable.
06:44Yeah.
06:45So I noticed.
06:48So I come with an offer.
06:51You told me that you had an old case, a missing person, um, Roman Sinchiera.
07:00Well, I have contacts and I can help you.
07:04And then we both get what we want.
07:06You get Sinchiera and I get to prove that I had nothing to do with whatever happened to him.
07:12See, I think that you're scared that we'll get to him first.
07:16And then you won't be able to make sure that he's gone forever.
07:21Trust me, Selena.
07:22You want me as a friend.
07:24I have enough friends.
07:28Including Eric Hayworth these days.
07:31He's been very cooperative.
07:35You remember that Blackberry I found in Roman Sinchiera's backpack?
07:39I told you.
07:40My texts were working on it.
07:42We pulled these messages off of it.
07:44They're in some sort of code, so we can't really read them just yet.
07:49But the days and the times match the night that Roman disappeared.
07:54Like their instructions.
07:56See that?
07:59So I put a call in to the DA.
08:02They're setting up a talk with me and my new friend, Eric Hayworth.
08:07I'm pretty sure he'll help us read them.
08:11Wow.
08:15Now I'm invested.
08:19So do tell me how that all goes for you.
08:22And if you change your mind about working together, let me know.
08:26Offer still stands.
08:31I am free to leave, right?
08:34This time.
08:36What's she doing?
08:37Wait.
08:38She's just gonna let her go?
08:39Hey!
08:40Hey!
08:41We are not done here.
08:42Morgan, calm down.
08:42Don't tell me to calm down, okay?
08:46Morgan!
08:46Let go of me!
08:47Morgan!
08:47This is your plan?
08:48As a matter of fact, yes.
08:49I needed to see her face, and now I'm sure Willaquin is scared.
08:55And with Hayworth's help, we're about to find out why.
09:03Make anything of them?
09:05No.
09:07Well, Soda will get it out of Hayworth when she talks to him.
09:10Hey, we're close.
09:15Mmm.
09:15Mmm.
09:16It's a fancy restaurant.
09:18That's Lucia's favorite.
09:19We're celebrating.
09:20She put in an offer on a house in Lafayette Park, and the seller just accepted it.
09:25Wow.
09:26That's a good school district.
09:27Think she'd mind if my family moved in?
09:30Unless she's already planning on maybe having a roommate one day.
09:34Well, we talked about it.
09:35What?
09:37Okay.
09:39You guys have been back together for, like, five minutes.
09:41Isn't that kind of rushing things a little bit?
09:43Well, I said we talked about it.
09:45That's it.
09:45But if that changes, you'll be the first to know.
09:47I don't need to be the first to know.
09:48Well, you might want to notify your utility companies.
09:53Nicole?
09:55Hi.
09:58Margot.
09:58It's so good to see you.
10:00God, it has been forever.
10:02Last time I saw you, you were pregnant with your daughter.
10:04Ava, she's 16 now.
10:0616?
10:07It doesn't seem possible.
10:07Ah, tell me about her.
10:09And you know what else?
10:10She's an artist as well.
10:11Like her dad.
10:13Yeah.
10:14Like her dad.
10:15Uh, Nicole Heisler, this is Detective Adam Karadek.
10:18Nice to meet you.
10:19Nice to meet you.
10:20Nicole is a professor of urban art, but when I met her, she went by the name Michelangelo.
10:26I was hoping you'd forgotten that.
10:28It's a tough one to forget.
10:30Thank you for coming in.
10:31We wanted to see if you could help us identify a tagger.
10:34This is what our victim was working on when he was killed.
10:38Wait, defunct is dead?
10:40You knew him?
10:41I knew his work.
10:43He was an up-and-comer in this scene.
10:45The piece we're actually interested in is the one that he was painting over.
10:48Do you recognize that style?
10:51Um, well, you see the flares and the drip marks along the side?
10:58They're as unique as a signature.
11:00Yeah.
11:02Cyclops.
11:02Half of these are Cyclops.
11:07And if I am remembering right, he and defunct had beef.
11:12Ragged over each other's work before.
11:14Do you know Cyclops is real, ma'am?
11:16Sorry, I don't.
11:17Well, if these are all Cyclopses, I know where he works.
11:21His paint cans are all from the same store.
11:24Well, how do you know the guy worked there and wasn't just a customer?
11:27Well, anyone on a budget knows that dented food cans get restocked and resold at a discount.
11:32Same goes for dented spray paint cans, unless the dent is along the seam, because then they could explode.
11:36These are safe because they're empty, but these cans really should have gone back to the wholesaler.
11:40So Cyclops didn't buy them from the store.
11:42He intercepted them because he worked there.
11:48What?
11:49Nothing.
11:50Just, I'm surprised.
11:52You working with the police?
11:54You seem happy.
11:56I like it.
11:58Well, you know.
11:59Free coffee.
12:02Mm-hmm.
12:19Hey, order yourself something.
12:21No, I'm good.
12:22I see the cigars and bacon haven't killed you yet.
12:25Which one do you think will get me first?
12:27Look, Dad, I got a job to get back to, and you don't summon me unless you need something.
12:32So, what's up?
12:35I've asked the city council to launch a panel to look into corruption.
12:39You?
12:40That's rich.
12:41I'm considering a run for Senate, so I'll be the face of it.
12:44Plays well with the voters.
12:46Yeah, that makes more sense.
12:47I've heard about this Morgan Guillory.
12:51Consultant of yours, right?
12:53I think she'd be perfect for her.
12:55Full benefits, opportunity for advancement.
12:58I'm sure we could pay her a little bit more than what LAPD's given her.
13:00Wait, wait a second.
13:01You want to offer her a job?
13:03Yeah.
13:03She's smart.
13:04Problem solver.
13:06Won't take no for an answer.
13:07Perfect.
13:08And you know a hundred people who fit that description.
13:10Why are you looking at someone from my squad?
13:13That touch of nerve there, Nicky?
13:15Come on, son.
13:17You and I both know that she's special.
13:19And I also know that she's not going to want to work with you.
13:22Well, how about we let her decide that?
13:25Present her with the opportunity.
13:28Are you asking me to do this, or are you telling me?
13:32You're a big boy.
13:33I'm sure you'll do what's best for everyone.
13:49Oh, wow.
13:51That's just, wow.
13:53I had to wear a Hawaiian shirt and jorts the summer I worked at Knott's Berry Farm.
13:57This is much worse.
13:59Can I see a picture?
14:00No.
14:01Got it.
14:02Excuse me.
14:03Hey, we're looking for someone that works here.
14:04It goes by the name Cyclops.
14:06Do you know him?
14:27You got about two feet of foam sticking out from behind that dumpster, genius.
14:32Come on out.
14:34Damn it.
14:35I didn't do anything.
14:36Yeah, well, tell that to Tyler Villanueva.
14:39Who?
14:40Defunct.
14:40He was killed this morning.
14:42Someone killed defunct?
14:44Yo, I didn't have anything to do with that.
14:45Really?
14:46Your rival just so happened to get murdered while he was pinning over your work?
14:49Yeah, we were rivals, but we called a truce.
14:51We were working a job together.
14:52What kind of job?
14:53That weird building.
14:54In case we were being paid to tag it.
15:07These pictures make you pretty upset, hi, Anton?
15:10How would you feel if someone drew on one of your parking tickets?
15:12Or whatever you cops care about.
15:14Well, I can tell you we wouldn't kill anyone for it.
15:16I didn't kill the guy.
15:17Like I said, me and defunct had a truce because we were both hired to tag that building.
15:21Okay, so who hired you?
15:23I don't know.
15:24Someone.
15:25I didn't get a name, I never met the guy, nothing.
15:28We're going to need more than that.
15:30Why do you smell like an ashtray?
15:31Oh, sorry.
15:32I had lunch with the command.
15:34And an ashtray?
15:35I got nothing for you.
15:36You took a job from an anonymous client to tag a building.
15:39Guys like me and defunct throw our work on online forms.
15:42A couple months back, I saw a post offering to pay taggers to cover in case.
15:46Wait, someone posted a criminal one ad.
15:49I thought it might be the cops, but it said the building was abandoned,
15:52there'd be no security, and they're paying crypto to keep both sides anonymous.
15:56So, I DM back.
15:57Seems like a pretty big risk.
15:59In case you forgot, I work as a dancing hammer.
16:02I needed the cash.
16:03Turns out the gig was legit.
16:04I got paid.
16:05And as far as I knew, me and defunct were good.
16:07You mind telling us where you were between five and seven this morning?
16:10At my girlfriend's?
16:12And your Belinda.
16:14Two hours away.
16:14Oh, and your girlfriend would never lie for you.
16:17She might.
16:18But I'm guessing your boys at Highway Patrol wouldn't.
16:21Yeah, they pulled me over leaving there on my way to work.
16:23Ask them.
16:26I never thought the cops would get me out of trouble.
16:29Why would someone pay people to tag that one building?
16:31Try to cover up as much of it as possible?
16:33Well, it doesn't look like the owners are going to be any help.
16:35It says here they're a Hong Kong consortium.
16:37It ran out of money three years ago and haven't been heard from since.
16:40A consortium of them.
16:43What are you looking for?
16:44The architect.
16:45Takes a lot of time and planning to design a building like that.
16:48They can't have been thrilled at the new paint job.
16:51Does this job ever get to you?
16:53What do you mean?
16:54Working at major crimes, dealing with murder all day.
16:56Yeah, I mean, it doesn't help that I can remember absolutely everything, but I like it.
17:00Why?
17:01Trying to fire me again?
17:02Oh, maybe the opposite.
17:03City council started an anti-corruption panel and your name came up.
17:08Clearly they haven't seen me help myself in the bulk foods aisle.
17:12You've been an asset here, but it sounds like a great opportunity.
17:15Well, thank you very much, but I'm not looking for an opportunity.
17:17Well, you should think about it.
17:18It's a 95.
17:19Okay, why are you trying to push this job on me?
17:21You want to get rid of me?
17:23Of course not.
17:24Council just asked me to pass along the offer.
17:26Okay, great.
17:27You did it.
17:27You passed it along.
17:28Can we get back to the job that I like doing?
17:31Okay, Gerald Lee.
17:33Encase is the culmination of years of work, blah, blah, blah, blah.
17:36An inseparable part of my soul.
17:39Ew, come on.
17:40Well, if anybody has thoughts on that graffiti, it could be him.
17:48Thanks for coming in, Mr. Lee.
17:50We assume you heard about what happened at the Encase building.
17:53Yeah, it's awful.
17:55I feel so guilty.
17:56Yeah.
17:58The way I first reacted.
17:59Why?
18:00How'd she react?
18:01My first thought wasn't about the man who was killed.
18:03I worried what would happen to my building.
18:06Makes sense.
18:07You poured a tremendous amount of time and energy into it.
18:09There's nothing like it in the world.
18:11The beams on the outside make the support structure part of the design.
18:15That's why I named it Encase.
18:17Did you know the Taggers were hired to deface the building?
18:20You're kidding.
18:21You didn't know.
18:22Who would pay someone to do that?
18:24That's what we were hoping you could tell us.
18:25I had no idea.
18:27I mean, the building has its critics.
18:29Some people didn't get it.
18:30Really?
18:31But if all that graffiti was some kind of critique, joke's on them.
18:36Why's that?
18:37In case it's finally going to get finished.
18:39Until a few weeks ago, the only people interested were developers who wanted to tear it down for the land.
18:44That couldn't have felt good.
18:45You're right, it didn't.
18:47But all that graffiti tanked the value.
18:50Someone swooped in and bought it in a private sale.
18:52Private sale.
18:53That means the name of the buyer isn't public.
18:55Any chance you know it?
18:58I can try and do some digging.
19:00Yeah, or you could just tell us.
19:03See, I think you know who the buyers are.
19:04You just don't want us to know because they're about to finish your building.
19:07We read about how important this building is for your career, Mr. Lee.
19:11But if that buyer had something to do with Tyler Villanueva's murder and you protect them, that's accessory.
19:16So, unless you want to read about your grand opening from prison, you might want to think about coming up
19:21with that name.
19:28Mrs. Latimore, I'm Detective Karadek.
19:30Finally.
19:31And this is...
19:31Brad, the police are here.
19:33You're here about the graffiti.
19:34Um, actually, yes.
19:52Subtle.
19:53My husband called a few days ago when it happened.
19:56We thought you guys weren't coming.
19:57My apologies.
19:58It's the first we're hearing.
19:59It's definitely defunct.
20:00Meaning he was here just before he died and looking to collect.
20:03Wait, someone died?
20:04What's this about?
20:05Well, this is about your friend, defunct.
20:08Who?
20:09The guy who wants you to pay up.
20:11The thing is, Mr. Latmore, we're here because your employer, Rabner Hughes Industries, just bought the Encase building.
20:16And you are their head of acquisitions.
20:18Mm-hmm.
20:18Now, we were planning to ask if you'd hired defunct and another tagger to deface the building, but seeing this,
20:22that's, uh, definitely a yes.
20:25And you and defunct got into a dispute over the money.
20:27Yeah, one sec.
20:28Your husband hasn't been telling you the truth, and the reason the police never showed up is because he didn't
20:31call him.
20:32Go ahead.
20:32What happened?
20:33Defunct tried to shake you down for extra, so you killed him?
20:35I...
20:36I didn't kill anyone.
20:38Rabner Hughes wanted Encase, and if I didn't deliver, I was out.
20:41But the owner wouldn't budge on the price.
20:43So you hired the taggers hoping their graffiti would drive the price down?
20:46Okay, and did Rabner Hughes pay for that?
20:48No, I got the money out of our...
20:51girl's college fund.
20:52What?
20:53Oh, my.
20:54So, if you paid him, what's with the garage door?
20:57Well, the plan worked faster than expected, and I tried to prorate.
21:01Then he came by the house, and I paid him out.
21:03You can see both transfers.
21:05Ma'am?
21:08Second payments before defunct was killed.
21:11Brad had no motive.
21:12Any idea how he found your house?
21:13Eh, I think I can answer that.
21:15You sent him a screenshot of your bank balance.
21:17Did he want to make sure you had the money?
21:19Yeah.
21:19You had your location turned on.
21:21Just let him write to you.
21:22My mother was right.
21:24Sandy...
21:24Get in the house, Brad.
21:30I'm starting to feel like defunct wasn't killed over anything to do with the tagging.
21:34We should head back to the building.
21:35Maybe you walked in on something else.
21:44Okay, so defunct ragged Cyclops in there got bashed right around here.
21:53What did he see?
21:54God, it's still so hot in here.
21:55My pits are blasting.
22:00Uh, Karadak?
22:04That wasn't here before.
22:12I think I see a propane torch.
22:17And multiple propane tanks.
22:20I've got to shut it off.
22:24No, Karadak, wait, stop, stop!
22:26There's gasoline in that glove.
22:27The whole place is going to blow up.
22:29The glove?
22:29Yes.
22:31Gasoline dissolves latex.
22:33That glove is basically just a slow fuse.
22:35And when it finally eats through...
22:39Morgan, get out of here.
22:40Well, what are you doing?
22:42Hey, there's still time to turn it off.
22:44I'm right behind you.
22:45Go.
22:46Uh...
23:01Come on.
23:07Uh...
23:25Oh, God, there you are.
23:27Are you crazy?
23:28You're right.
23:28I have to call this sent.
23:30Are you okay?
23:30Are you okay?
23:32Oh, my God.
23:34Yeah, I'm...
23:34Oh, no, no, no, no.
23:35I'm okay. I'm okay.
23:37I got you, Steve.
23:38I got you. Oh, my God.
23:38I got you.
23:40911, emergency. Oh, no, no.
23:43Okay.
23:44Officer Dan.
24:02Morgan.
24:04I'll give you one more guess.
24:06Lucia, I...
24:08Easy, easy, Adam.
24:10I didn't mean...
24:11I know you didn't.
24:14You look incredible.
24:18Dinner. Lucia, I'm so sorry.
24:20No, no, no. There's no reason to be sorry.
24:23You're okay.
24:25That is all that matters.
24:26Toast? Can you at least put some avocado on it?
24:29No apple juice. Throw that right in the trash.
24:31It needs protein.
24:31Bring him avocado toast and just all the meats you have, okay?
24:34He's a big meat guy.
24:36Oh!
24:37Sorry to interrupt, Lucia.
24:39Uh, hi.
24:41You look hot.
24:43You don't.
24:44You look bad.
24:45You almost got your head blown off, you moron.
24:49Glad you're okay.
24:50Thanks.
24:53What? What is this?
24:54It's a gallbladder.
24:55I don't know. Hospital gift shop.
24:56It was that or a uterus.
24:57Right choice.
24:59Right choice.
25:01Is this?
25:02Chocolate chip cookie with all the chocolate chips picked out.
25:05Yes.
25:06I washed my hands thoroughly before I jumped in there.
25:09Why not just a sugar cookie?
25:11It's not the same thing.
25:14Was anyone else hurt in the explosion?
25:16Just a little cracked concrete on one side.
25:19So the building's still standing?
25:20Mm-hmm.
25:21Thanks to us, we got there and called it in on time.
25:23Were they able to...
25:25Oh.
25:26Okay.
25:27Just gonna get some sleep, okay?
25:29Uh-huh.
25:43Here.
25:44Thanks.
25:45Yeah.
25:48You okay?
25:50Yeah.
25:51I'm fine.
25:53It's just...
25:55Dating a cop.
25:56You know this kind of thing can happen, but you're never ready for it.
26:00Yeah.
26:03Before I got the call, I was, um...
26:06Sitting in the restaurant.
26:08Alone.
26:09And, uh...
26:11I had this flashback.
26:13What it was like before...
26:16Adam getting wrapped up in the case and...
26:20Forgetting our plans.
26:22Forgetting about me.
26:24Yeah.
26:24But that didn't happen.
26:25No.
26:26He is different now, and I...
26:29I think you had something to do with that change.
26:32Wow.
26:33Just after a whole day with me, he's ready to go home.
26:35Yeah.
26:39It's just so hard to see him like this.
26:42You know, he is the careful one.
26:44I'm the more elite-before-you-look type.
26:46Same.
26:48Now, last year I was in the ER.
26:50Really?
26:50Mm-hmm.
26:51I took a shortcut through the park
26:53and slammed my bike into a statue of George Washington
26:57and took a hoof to the elbow.
26:59Oh.
26:59See that?
27:00Hoof elbow.
27:01Mm-hmm.
27:01Worst.
27:02Awful.
27:05I'm gonna check on Adam.
27:08Thanks for being there for him, Morgan.
27:11You're a really good friend.
27:27Yep.
27:30How's he doing?
27:31You're gonna keep him a couple days for observation,
27:33but he's gonna be just fine.
27:35So things have gone from a little graffiti
27:37to someone trying to burn down the whole building.
27:39They sure did.
27:40And it's looking like the killer and the arsonist
27:42are the same guy.
27:43Emmy thinks one of those propane tanks
27:45is the murder weapon.
27:46Shape of the cylinder matches Defunct's head wound.
27:48So the arsonist and Defunct run into each other.
27:51Mm-hmm.
27:51The first time this guy tried to set the fire,
27:54Defunct saw him,
27:55so the arsonist killed him.
28:02Problem was, Defunct ended up dangling off the side of a building,
28:05so the killer left and then came back later.
28:07Forensics is still trying to lift prints and DNA
28:09off what's left of the tanks,
28:10but it's gonna take time.
28:11So who would want to take it down?
28:13Uh, anybody with eyeballs?
28:14Very ugly building.
28:15But we were wondering the same thing.
28:17We talked to Gerald Lee, the architect.
28:19He talked about that building like it was his baby.
28:21Unlikely he would want to destroy it.
28:22Same with Rabner.
28:23He used Industries.
28:24I mean, they bought it to fill it with tenants.
28:26Still wouldn't hurt to ask Lee or Brad Lapmore
28:29to see what their thoughts are on the subject.
28:32It's Wagner.
28:33He is checking on Karadek
28:34and seeing if he can help out with the case.
28:36Give it a thumbs down.
28:37Take him up on it.
28:38Bring him along on the re-question of Lapmore.
28:40And you two, go talk to the architect.
28:43Sure.
28:43But only because Soto is making me say, sure.
28:49Plan.
28:58You know, that job you mentioned, if the offer still stands,
29:01I think I'm interested.
29:03Really?
29:04Yeah.
29:05Better hours, better pay, less murder.
29:07Like you said, I should at least consider it, right?
29:12No, you shouldn't.
29:14Why not?
29:16Because you'd be working for my father.
29:18He's spearheading the panel,
29:20and the only reason why he wants you
29:21is because he wants to use you to make him look good.
29:26I'm sorry, Morgan.
29:28Obviously, this is your decision to make,
29:30but you shouldn't be making one without all the facts.
29:33And I apologize.
29:34I should have been up front from the start.
29:38Yeah, you really should have.
29:40Then I wouldn't have had to figure it out for myself,
29:42which I did.
29:44Of course you did.
29:45You mentioned city council.
29:47Your dad's on it.
29:47It wasn't exactly a Christopher Nolan movie.
29:52So you're not interested in the job?
29:53No.
29:54Just wanted to see if you'd be honest with me.
29:59Took me a little longer than it should have.
30:01Did you get there?
30:06This panel's important to your dad, right?
30:08How's he gonna feel about me turning him down?
30:11Honestly, Morgan, I couldn't care less.
30:20You again.
30:22You're new.
30:23Brad Latmore, Captain Wagner.
30:26My wife took the kids.
30:27They're staying with their mom.
30:29So thanks for that.
30:30Thank me?
30:30Okay, all the stupid things you did, that's my fault?
30:33What are you, one of my kids?
30:35Mind if we take this inside?
30:36Yeah.
30:43We wanted a buy-in case, not level it.
30:46That whole neighborhood's coming up
30:47because they're putting in a new rail line.
30:49Rents are gonna go through the roof.
30:50Any idea who would want to burn it?
30:52We found evidence of an arson attempt inside.
30:55Really?
30:55Maybe we should've waited to pull the trigger.
30:57The price would be lower now.
31:00I'm joking.
31:01Hilarious.
31:02Hey, you know your model's wrong.
31:04Doesn't match the real thing.
31:05It's rotated 90 degrees.
31:06Oh, yeah.
31:07I think the original client's asked for that change
31:09at the last minute.
31:11Beams on the outside make the support structure
31:14part of the design.
31:17That's why I named it a case.
31:18It is hot here, huh?
31:20No wonder Tyler tagged a knife.
31:24Have you ever been inside the building, Brad?
31:27No.
31:27Tell you what, it's real hot in there.
31:30Hey, you're gonna break it.
31:32No, I probably won't.
31:33But even if I did, Sandy's gonna get it.
31:35Right?
31:36The way it is positioned now,
31:39the side that gets the most sun has a ton of concrete.
31:41But the way you've got it,
31:43the side that would get the most sun
31:45doesn't have that much concrete.
31:46It's all glass and noodles
31:48or whatever that's supposed to be.
31:49That building's not supposed to get hot.
31:52Part of the design is it's supposed to stay cool.
31:55That could be a problem.
31:56What kind of problem?
31:58Well, I'm not an expert,
31:59but that could cause the whole structure to come down.
32:01Well, that sounds bad.
32:12Just a quick update on the case, please.
32:14Shouldn't you be resting?
32:15I can rest and listen.
32:17Where is Lucia?
32:18She stepped up.
32:20Could you send her on a pointless errand
32:21so you could call us?
32:23I sent her to get me some water.
32:25Hydration is not pointless.
32:26Mm-hmm.
32:26Can we get to the case, please?
32:28You mean before she comes back and catches you on the phone?
32:30Yeah, you got it.
32:31We're thinking that whoever rigged that fire
32:33did it to hide the fact that the building was about to fall down.
32:36It's gonna come down?
32:37Morgan and the captain got the building plans
32:39from that exec you saw, Brad Latmore.
32:41We had the plans examined by experts.
32:43You remember when we felt like it was really hot in there?
32:45It was right before the building exploded
32:46and you almost got yourself killed like an idiot?
32:49Yes, Morgan.
32:50My memory is intact.
32:51It gets crabby when it doesn't get enough exercise.
32:53I am begging you to go on.
32:56Well, it turns out the original clients decided
32:58to rotate the building at the last second.
33:00They went at the boss's office to face the mountains.
33:02Problem is, they rushed the plans through.
33:04So now, the side of the building with the most concrete
33:06got the most sun, which made the building get too hot.
33:09And that's not good.
33:11Like any high-rise here in L.A.,
33:13in case has earthquake shock absorbers at its base.
33:15They're called seismic isolators.
33:18But according to the experts we talked to,
33:20those shock absorbers get too hot,
33:22they lose their flexibility and they don't work.
33:26The way it is now, any earthquake above a five,
33:28and that building's coming down.
33:30And now that we know this,
33:31we realize the fire that you guys found
33:33was specifically set up to damage the concrete
33:35on that side of the building.
33:36Almost as if somebody wanted to be able
33:38to redesign one side of the building
33:40without anybody asking why.
33:42The architect.
33:44Lee.
33:45Exactly.
33:47He must have bumped into defunct
33:49while setting the fire.
33:51And he knew he couldn't leave a witness.
33:54His whole career is hanging on the Successman case.
33:57This lets him fix the mistake,
33:59save the building, and avoid a scandal.
34:01We've been trying to reach Lee since yesterday.
34:03Send Eunice to his house, his office.
34:06He's in the wind.
34:07Oh, hey, I gotta go. Bye.
34:10You were trying to sneak in a call. He was.
34:12So busted.
34:14You said before these new buyers
34:16that looked like the building was gonna be torn down?
34:18Yeah, that must be why Lee felt the need to set the fire.
34:21I mean, before that,
34:22his problem was gonna take care of itself.
34:24And the debris around the blowtorch
34:26included spray cans, right?
34:27You think he's trying to make the fire
34:28look like the taggers caused it?
34:29Yeah, absolutely.
34:30Those blowtorches are the same ones the taggers use.
34:33They help quick-dry the paint
34:34and control where the drips go.
34:35We're guessing he checked back to see if the fire worked.
34:37And once he realized we got there
34:39in time to prevent more damage, he fled.
34:41We've notified all the travel authorities,
34:42flagged his passport, car, credit cards, bank accounts.
34:46The last purchase he made before we stopped it
34:48was a sleeping bag and a lantern.
34:50But no food rations?
34:52Hmm.
34:54Go check out his house, his office,
34:56see if you can find any clues to where he'd hide.
35:05Do you really think you can lay up there and pretend
35:07I didn't just see you get off the phone with work?
35:09I know you better than that.
35:12And I know you better than the thing I could fool you.
35:15Mm-hmm.
35:15But I still might be able to surprise you.
35:26I think I owe you a date.
35:29Is this Arlo's?
35:31Mm.
35:32How did you get Arlo's?
35:33I had it delivered.
35:35The nurses helped me set it up.
35:37Oh.
35:38Also, the best vintage I could find.
35:42Ooh.
35:43This is exquisite.
35:45Is it Napa?
35:46Cafeteria.
35:48Oh.
35:51Cheers.
35:52Mm.
35:56Mm.
36:03I love you, Lucia.
36:09I love you too, Adam.
36:32I wonder what his dating profile interests are.
36:34Himself?
36:36Laptop needs a password.
36:38I'll get it to TID, see if they can crack it.
36:50What you got there?
36:52I think this is what encase is made of.
36:54It's called bendable concrete.
36:57And it's not the first time Lee's used it.
37:01Is that important?
37:03Uh, yeah.
37:04Because I think it just helped me figure out where he's hiding.
37:23He really loves an ugly gray wall.
37:25I think he's gonna find prison aesthetically pleasing.
37:30How did that brick tell you where he'd be?
37:32Oh, it's not a brick.
37:33Oh, it's not a brick.
37:34It's a miniature.
37:35This guy kept every single sketch he ever made.
37:38And every article that was ever written about him.
37:41Which, I mean, okay.
37:43But one of the articles was about how he had planned for years to build encase.
37:47Ever since the first time he worked with bendable concrete,
37:50when he was hired by a client to build an underground bunker.
37:56The sleeping bag and the lantern.
37:57Yes, that explains why he didn't have to stock up on food.
38:00He knew the bunker would be completely empty except for a big food supply.
38:03But how did this thing tell you it was a bunker?
38:06Well, when we were searching Lee's office, I noticed a detail on the miniature.
38:10See the rectangle on the top?
38:11That's a door.
38:14Nicole!
38:15Hi!
38:16Hi.
38:17Uh, Nicole Heisler.
38:18This is my boss, Lieutenant Soto.
38:19I heard you were helpful on the case.
38:21I was glad I could do something.
38:24I got your message that you caught Defunc's killer.
38:27I've been talking to taggers who knew him.
38:29They wanted me to say thanks.
38:32That's nice.
38:33You didn't have to come all the way down here to do that, though.
38:35No.
38:36I also wanted to give you something.
38:38Really, it's for Ava.
38:41Roman helped get me out of the life.
38:43He gave me that.
38:45Wanted me to see the difference a female artist could make.
38:48I thought it might inspire his daughter, too.
38:54She's really gonna love this.
38:57You know, she also might really love to talk to you sometime if you wanna try not to let 16
39:02more years go by before we bump into each other.
39:05Call me anytime.
39:07I will.
39:17Oh, wait.
39:18No, no.
39:18You know you can't keep it, right?
39:19I'm not gonna keep it.
39:20I'm just gonna borrow it.
39:21Well...
39:21I'm just gonna swing by the hospital and fill Carradick in.
39:24Okay.
39:25Good night.
39:38Miss Quinn.
39:40You still in L.A.?
39:41Yes.
39:42And I thought I'd share some news.
39:45I heard that the FBI took Eric Hayworth into federal custody.
39:51Really?
39:52Nobody told me.
39:54Yeah, I just...
39:55I just found out myself.
39:57Apparently, they got a tip that he had information on an old murder.
40:01FBI agent, Lila Flynn.
40:04In other words, you had Hayworth move somewhere I can't get to him, but you can.
40:08Oh, I'm sorry, dear.
40:10I have to go.
40:10I'm just walking into a meeting, but I'm sure we'll speak soon.
40:27One second.
40:38Hey, now.
40:39That is a 30-year-old whiskey.
40:45I guess I should know better than expect you to ask politely.
40:49You should.
40:55And you're right, it is a 30-year-old.
40:58The owner of the club is a client.
41:00I bought him the bottle.
41:06So, any word from the prodigal son?
41:08Yes.
41:09Nick is not sidelining Morgan Guillory.
41:12The time being, she's staying at major crimes.
41:16So, there.
41:17Done your errand, and I'm out.
41:19Whatever you're doing, you got to find another way.
