00:03Would you please sit down?
00:05I can't sit, because if I sit, I'll think, and if I think, I'll picture all the ways in which
00:10we end up in matching orange jumpsuits.
00:12Is this just your usual pre-show jitters? You always get like this right before a big job.
00:16This one's different, I just...
00:19The stakes, Max, the stakes are Everest, and I can't...
00:23Okay, okay, look at me. This isn't our first rodeo.
00:26The plan is tight, tested. We've gamed it six ways from Sunday.
00:30And the last time I thought I had it under control, I blew our lives to smithereens.
00:34Okay, yes, but we survived.
00:35So far?
00:39Look at the time, honey. Aren't you gonna be late for work?
00:43Day off.
00:44Oh, so maybe brunch? You, me, Ellis, a little eggs, Benny?
00:48Ellis has plans, alright? It's his high school reunion.
00:52Flying solo?
00:53Nope. He's bringing Jessica.
00:56Oh, oh, I see.
00:59See what?
01:00I mean, that's not just a date, darling, that's a declaration.
01:03Ugh, get out.
01:05Well, you don't bare your angst-ridden teen soul to just any girlfriend.
01:08Reunion equals intimacy.
01:10Or humiliation, depending on your playlist.
01:13He's opening the vault for her, Max.
01:16And I'd really like you to notice before it slams shut on you.
01:20Okay, can we just get back to business?
01:21Yes.
01:23All we gotta do is stick to the plan.
01:26Okay.
01:27Right.
01:27And, Mom, I promise, everything's gonna be okay.
01:32Right.
01:34Right.
01:36I never thought I'd say this, but I'm gonna be sorry to see you go.
01:40Well, right back at you, George.
01:43I mean, most guys finish their parole.
01:45I'm just glad they're not gonna break into my car again.
01:47But you, you went full Ted Lasso on me.
01:51And on those prison inmates.
01:52Just trying to give back.
01:53You were their mentor, their counselor.
01:56Given second chances to guys who never even had a first.
01:59I really did enjoy it.
02:02Today's my last session with the guys.
02:04Oh yeah?
02:04How do you feel about that?
02:05I'm not so good with endings.
02:07Or change.
02:08Which is odd, considering the kind of life that I lead.
02:11I mean lead.
02:12Hmm.
02:13Well, look, this doesn't have to be goodbye.
02:16Just, uh...
02:17Au revoir?
02:18Well, if it'll help make the transition any easier, we could still meet up every couple
02:23of months.
02:23Are you saying you're gonna miss me?
02:25I'm saying I've had worse company on this bench.
02:28I'll put that on a plaque.
02:33You know what?
02:34I think I'd like that.
02:35You've been more than just a parole officer to me.
02:38You've been a real friend.
02:39Take care, George.
02:43Take care, George.
03:04Why so serious?
03:06Yes.
03:11Sorry I'm late.
03:12You weren't about to bail, were you?
03:13I was thinking about it.
03:15And I'm still thinking about it.
03:17The whole point of a high school reunion is the scoreboard.
03:20Winners and losers.
03:21Spoiler alert, you're in the winners column.
03:23Plus, the registration is giving out party favors.
03:26Lip balm?
03:26Emo balm, more precisely.
03:28Infused with aromatherapy scents.
03:30The tagline is bloom softly, burn brightly.
03:33Cute, right?
03:34I also brought you this.
03:37Your reunion badge.
03:39I think you must have forgotten it.
03:40Yeah, I must have forgotten it.
03:41No, Jess, I'm not putting that on.
03:43Everybody else's.
03:44No, absolutely not.
03:45I think you look adorable.
03:48You are enjoying this way too much.
03:50Oh, yeah.
03:52Oi.
03:53Cole?
03:54Cole the mole.
03:56Ray.
03:56You got guts, man.
03:58I'll give you that.
04:01I'm gonna burn this place down.
04:03Okay.
04:04Let's play a game.
04:05And if I win, you tell me what all that was about.
04:07Okay.
04:10Mean girls at 12 o'clock.
04:12Cheekbones brunette, she's the alpha.
04:14That's Lexi.
04:15That blonde, loyal sidekick.
04:17That's Amber.
04:18Other blonde, human wallpaper.
04:20And that's Hannah.
04:22Okay, you're good at this.
04:23Now about the mole moniker.
04:25Mole man?
04:27Almost didn't recognize you.
04:28Brock?
04:29Came back for more, eh?
04:30You always were a sucker for punishment.
04:34Hilarious.
04:35Former quarterback.
04:36Still a bully.
04:37Yeah.
04:38I was an easy target back then.
04:40Could have landed a plane on my face from the acne glow.
04:43I still hate him.
04:45Now will you please tell me, what's with the mole thing?
04:47Is it mole as in-
04:48Mr. Loomis?
04:49Cole.
04:50Oh, I was so hoping I'd see you today.
04:53Look at you.
04:54You look great.
04:56And this lovely lady must be your-
04:58Human shield.
04:58Jessica.
04:59Human shield.
05:00Mr. Loomis was the high school librarian.
05:02I still am actually, you know.
05:03Said that a few more years before they stick me out on a nice flow.
05:06And for Pete's sake, will you call me Terrence now?
05:08Okay, okay.
05:10You know, I don't think I would have made it through high school without this guy.
05:12Oh, come on.
05:13Well, I'm glad to hear all the memories aren't bad.
05:15Boy.
05:15Look at this.
05:17Detective Cole Ellis.
05:20I always knew you'd make something of yourself.
05:22I always said, you know what?
05:23This guy is a lot tougher than you think he is.
05:27Nice to meet you, Jessica.
05:28Good to see you, Cole.
05:29You too.
05:33Okay, listen up, losers.
05:34Your queen has news.
05:38As of this morning, my company, Emobomb, was bought by a major global cosmetics brand.
05:46Which makes me 500 times a millionaire.
05:52Which also makes me done with this dump.
05:56Bye-bye.
05:57Still losers.
05:58Always will be.
06:00You're all dead to me.
06:09Oh.
06:17Someone call 911!
06:27Nothing says high school reunion like chalk outlines and trauma counseling.
06:31Reunion nightmare.
06:32There they are.
06:35Alice.
06:36Hey, Jeff.
06:37You remember Jessica?
06:39Hi.
06:39Hey.
06:40So what exactly happened here?
06:41Victim's name is Lexi Chandler.
06:43She just collapsed out of nowhere.
06:45Went to go check her pulse, but she was gone.
06:47Where are the others?
06:47Oh, don't worry.
06:48I already locked the place down.
06:49I'm holding everyone in the gym until we know more.
06:51And what was the...
06:52Oh.
06:53My.
06:54God.
06:55Look at the size of your head.
06:57It needs its own area code.
06:59Max.
07:00And this is it.
07:00I swear if we connect the dots it would spell help me.
07:03Okay, laugh it up.
07:04Howdy, delinquents.
07:05Somebody's getting detention for this.
07:07What's a pre-lay malice?
07:08Blue lips, blue fingertips, classic cyanosis.
07:11And this?
07:12Blood?
07:13Yeah, but it's brown.
07:14Which means what?
07:14Internal organs suffered extreme oxygen deprivation.
07:17Translation, she was poisoned.
07:19She looked drunk.
07:20She was dizzy and slurring.
07:22We just thought she had too much champagne.
07:23Not champagne.
07:24Chemistry.
07:25What was it?
07:26Best guess?
07:27Sodium nitrite.
07:28In the right dose?
07:29Quite lethal.
07:30Is it easily accessible?
07:31Very.
07:31In fact, it's often found in your friendly neighborhood high school science lab.
07:36Oh.
07:37Game on.
07:42Think tight, okay?
07:43I'll be right back.
07:44Okay.
07:47We need to talk sodium nitrite.
07:49Uh, it's kept in here with the other hazardous chemicals.
07:52Who else has access to the keys?
07:53I'm the only science teacher, so just me.
07:56The cabinet's been locked since Friday.
07:58How can you be sure?
07:58I take inventory at the end of every week.
08:01Um, everything was fine.
08:02And where were you when Lexi collapsed?
08:04In the cafeteria with everybody else.
08:05And before that?
08:06Uh, I've been here since 10am grading papers.
08:08You didn't leave?
08:09Well, at noon, I opened the school doors for the reunion crowd.
08:12You sure it was noon?
08:13Yeah.
08:14Even on the weekends, the school bells still ring.
08:16I heard the lunch bell and went down to open up.
08:18It's my first year here.
08:19Apparently, it's the new guy who has to babysit the former prom kings and queens on the weekend.
08:24So, the sodium nitrite?
08:26Uh, right.
08:26Uh, okay.
08:27Yeah.
08:35Wait, um, no, no, no.
08:38What's wrong?
08:38I keep the sodium nitrite right here.
08:40Always.
08:41Alphabetical, color coded, the whole deal.
08:43It's right there.
08:44So, what's the problem?
08:46It's been moved.
08:47How can you tell?
08:48I get real OCD about this.
08:50You know, kids and chemicals.
08:51Every bottle has its exact spot.
08:53Label facing out.
08:54If anything's even a hair off, I notice.
08:56Well, I notice too.
08:58That bottle's crooked.
08:59The label's turned.
09:00So, if it was all good yesterday and you just opened the door at noon today.
09:03And sodium nitrite can take up to half an hour to result in death.
09:07And whoever grabbed the poison was in this room between 12 and 12.30.
09:10Looks like we got our murder timeline.
09:16You know, it smells like a landfill in here, right?
09:19I prefer Steakout Chic, thank you.
09:22Steakout Chic.
09:23Steakout Chic smells a whole lot like old stale burrito.
09:26Just sit back and relax, okay?
09:28This could take a while.
09:29Alright.
09:29Lee said it could be a hotbed for drug runners, money launderers.
09:32We sit.
09:33We watch.
09:34We nail them.
09:35Alright.
09:38Oh, man.
09:39Look what Max just sent me.
09:41Must be from the reunion.
09:43What's Max doing there anyway?
09:44I thought he was taking Jessica.
09:45Maybe he wants the combo platter.
09:48You ever go to any of your high school reunions?
09:49No, no, no.
09:51Leave the past in the past, you know what I mean?
09:55I don't know.
09:57I think remembering beginnings is kind of nice.
09:59Do you remember ours?
10:01Hm?
10:01The day we became partners.
10:03I seem to remember that you took a while to warm up to me.
10:06Well, that's because you attacked me.
10:08Correction.
10:09I evaluated you.
10:11Okay?
10:11Ski mask.
10:12Surprise entry.
10:13Tactical pressure test.
10:14That's what you do.
10:15Tactical pressure test.
10:16You bit me.
10:17And you bit me back.
10:19That's what I knew we were meant for each other.
10:22Heads up.
10:23We gotta move now.
10:25Delivery for Yates?
10:27Yeah.
10:29Eternal thanks, noble purveyor of foil-drapped delights.
10:31Whatever.
10:35You ordered food.
10:37Do a steak-out.
10:39Yeah.
10:40From your favorite, El Legis Clador.
10:43This one's yours.
10:44Okay?
10:44Extra cheese.
10:46Your favorite.
10:48Well, this one's mine.
10:50Extra beans.
10:53Oh, God.
10:56Okay, class.
10:57Pay attention.
10:58Grant left the lab around noon.
11:00Olive says it takes about 30 minutes for the poison to kick in.
11:03And Lexi dropped dead at 1 o'clock.
11:04Gold star, Cole.
11:05Which means our killer had to spike the drink around 12, 12.30.
11:08A-plus to the chief.
11:10That leaves about a 30-minute smash-and-grab window.
11:12Break into the lab, grab the goods, spike the drink.
11:16Olive's taken, Lexi's champagne glass for testing.
11:18Okay, but all this presumes that Grant's not our guy.
11:21How can you be so sure?
11:22Because he's new.
11:23He has no ties to Lexi or this sad reunion.
11:26Presuming he's telling the truth.
11:27If Grant wanted someone gone, why would he use poison with a neon flashing sign saying property of science teacher?
11:32Fair, but I'm not ruling him out completely.
11:34I'm gonna double check his alibi.
11:36In the meantime, let's get a lockdown on the food and drink.
11:38Already done.
11:38And I confiscated everybody's cell phones.
11:40Including your journalist girlfriends?
11:42Yes, including my journalist girlfriend.
11:43Okay, look, we need to control the narrative of this thing before it goes public.
11:46Ellis, you're off this.
11:48What?
11:48You were on the scene when it happened, making a witness and with a conflict of interest.
11:52Sorry, but you're benched.
11:53Ooh, this is delicious.
11:55Chief, it's me.
11:56This is not up for debate.
11:57I think you should hand over your badge.
11:59And your gun.
11:59And your really nice office chair.
12:01You know, the one with the only working lumbar thingy.
12:06I can see you smiling.
12:07You're enjoying this way too much.
12:08I am Switzerland.
12:10Max, you and I are gonna split the witness list.
12:12Let's get eyes on anyone upstairs between 12 and 1230.
12:14Since our poison only walked out of the lab around noon, that screams crime of opportunity.
12:18All we know is someone decided to kill Lexi.
12:20Maybe it was the sale of her company.
12:22500 million is a good reason to kill.
12:23Well, there's a lot of history in Clearasil under that bridge.
12:26I think it's time we let the real cops do their job.
12:29Enjoy the lumbar support while it lasts.
12:32I loved Lexi, okay?
12:35She was prom queen.
12:37Like, pure gravity.
12:40I mean, sure, I was jealous.
12:41Really?
12:42I wasn't.
12:43But I was happy just to be in her orbit.
12:45Even if she turned a circle into a triangle.
12:47So where were you around noon?
12:49I wasn't upstairs, that's for sure.
12:51Hitting on that new science teacher Grant.
12:53Everybody's gonna tell you they loved Lexi.
12:55But that's not true.
12:55She lived to humiliate people.
12:57She's the one who gave Ellis' nicknames.
12:59Nicknames?
12:59Sure, like Cole Cuts, Cole Ellis.
13:02Lexi made him a walking punchline.
13:04Where were you between noon and 1230?
13:06With my former chess club buds.
13:08On the second floor?
13:09Nah, I got checkmated in the first floor gym.
13:12Lexi wasn't cruel.
13:14She was a force of nature.
13:15A tornado and a crop top.
13:17VFFs.
13:18Even after all these years.
13:20Always.
13:20Life took us to different cities, but Lexi was the glue.
13:24One group chat, one text, and...
13:27It was like we were all 17 again.
13:29Lexi and I even had lunch about six months ago when she blew through town.
13:32Lexi and I?
13:32Prom royalty.
13:33But after graduation, she just wasn't really my vibe anymore.
13:37You two didn't keep in touch after high school?
13:38Not really.
13:40Different paths.
13:41I'm, uh, happily married now.
13:43Lexi never reached out?
13:45Not even a reunion text?
13:46Nah, I didn't expect her to.
13:48And, uh, no.
13:49I was nowhere near the second floor.
13:50Lexi was toxic.
13:51She dumped Brock after he was benched in the big game.
13:54I know she's dead and all, but...
13:55Let's be real.
13:56Okay.
13:57Let's.
13:58Everyone hated her.
13:59Including you?
14:00Did you hate her enough to kill her?
14:01No way.
14:02But there was one person who did.
14:04Senior Prom?
14:04She destroyed him in front of everyone.
14:06He never got over it.
14:08Oh, man.
14:09It was embarrassing.
14:10So if you're asking who had the biggest motive to kill Lexi, that's easy.
14:15Cole Ellis.
14:16Cole Ellis.
14:17Cole Ellis.
14:18Cole Ellis.
14:20Cole Ellis.
14:26Chief, you can't be serious.
14:27I am a suspect?
14:28According to everyone, you have motive.
14:30Where there's motive, there's murder, Mr. Ellis.
14:33Tell us the truth and we'll cut you a deal.
14:35Max, come on.
14:36This isn't a joke.
14:37I know.
14:37Could have been working with a murderer this whole time.
14:39Ellis, tell us about prom.
14:42Let's just say, back in high school, I wasn't exactly the most popular kid.
14:45A couple weeks before senior prom, I got paired with Lexi to do this history project.
14:50First, we got off to a rough start, but all of a sudden one day we just, we hit a
14:54groove.
14:54You know, we started having fun together.
14:56I think it surprised the both of us, but long story short, we ended up getting an A-plus on
15:00the project.
15:01And then?
15:01And then she asked me to prom.
15:03From dud to stud.
15:05Classic.
15:06On prom night, I picked Lexi up, I gave her this corsage, and I took her to the dance.
15:12But as soon as we walked into the cafeteria, that's when the other shoe dropped.
15:16Hannah, Amber, Brock, they were all there waiting, laughing their asses off at my believing that the most popular girl
15:22in high school would have went to prom with me.
15:25Brock took Lexi by the hand, threw the corsage back at me, and then he walked her onto the dance
15:29floor.
15:31What a piece of work.
15:32If she wasn't already dead, I'd kill her myself.
15:35Alice, did you interact with Lexi this morning?
15:38No, between 12 and 12.30, I was in the cafeteria, I said that.
15:40So no alibi?
15:42Max, there was like a hundred people there.
15:44So you admit, no one can confirm your whereabouts.
15:48Hey, can we just get back to work, please?
15:50I already told you, you're benched.
15:52Chief, I'm an asset, I know everyone here, I'm telling you.
15:54That's the problem, you can't be an objective investigator.
15:58Alright, fine.
15:59Can you just tell me what you know so far?
16:01We've talked to everyone except a guy named Ron Zagowski.
16:03He's signed in, but no one's been able to find him.
16:05Nobody listens to me around here.
16:06I just said he's benched.
16:07I know, old habits die hard.
16:09Even with a murderer.
16:11Ziggy's here, huh?
16:12Wow.
16:13He was like the Spicoli of our high school.
16:16Total stoner.
16:17Is he worth a look?
16:18I mean, I wouldn't have thought so, but it has been 15 years, so people change, right?
16:22Okay.
16:23Civilian, we got this.
16:31Thanks, Ludo.
16:32Five stars, buddy.
16:34Gates, what the?
16:35I'm still burping up burritos.
16:37What is this?
16:39Hold up, are these?
16:40Are these kebabs?
16:41Mm-hmm.
16:43Todd's Kebabs and Cell Phone Emporium.
16:45Okay.
16:46One last time.
16:47One last time, what do you mean by that?
16:49Todd's packing up his skewers.
16:51We're good this time.
16:52His wife inherited a beauty parlor.
16:55Just like that, huh?
16:58Shocking, isn't it?
16:59Yeah.
17:00You rely on Todd.
17:02The consistency of his kebabs.
17:04Friendship.
17:06Camaraderie.
17:07Thanks.
17:07And then, out of nowhere, he just leaves.
17:10Like, your relationship meant nothing to him.
17:12Because he found something better.
17:15Yeah, well, things change.
17:17That's life.
17:18It's not all bad.
17:20Change sucks.
17:24Right?
17:25You don't have to cry.
17:29Stop crying on steak-outs.
17:32Hey, listen.
17:33There's gonna be other kebabs.
17:37Not like these ones?
17:44There's no sign of Ziggy anywhere.
17:46Detective.
17:47You're benched.
17:48Oh, please.
17:49As if you're not already drafting an article in your head about all this.
17:52I'm not benched.
17:53What did the chief want?
17:55Strange that he wanted to know what you were like in high school.
17:58Oh, he did, did he?
17:59Mm-hmm.
18:00Okay.
18:01I was more punk than popular.
18:03I smoked in the girls' bathroom, I wore way too much eyeliner, and I was 100% certain that I
18:07was gonna marry Jack White.
18:08Okay, so unlike me, you were actually cool.
18:12I was tremendously cool.
18:14It's too bad we didn't meet back then.
18:17Hard truth?
18:18I think that Teen Jess would have ghosted Teen Alice before ghosting was even a thing.
18:22Think so?
18:22There was a big difference between cool and confident.
18:26I hid behind ripped fishnets, Doc Martens, and a bad attitude.
18:30Bet you were too cool to even go to your prom.
18:33Oh, I went.
18:34With 20-year-old bad boy Liam who smelled like cigarettes and sweat and rode a motorcycle.
18:39Okay, yeah.
18:41Teen Alice definitely couldn't compete with that.
18:48What's wrong?
18:49I'm glad we didn't meet back then.
18:51I think you would have been wasted on Teen Jess.
18:53She was nowhere near mature enough to appreciate the genuine, honorable, sexy man you are now.
18:59You think I'm sexy, huh?
19:01Well, don't let it get to your head.
19:02Too late.
19:04You wanna hold hands with the cool chick?
19:06Yes, I do.
19:09So, still got those fishnets?
19:11Well, keep dreaming, nerd.
19:14This is our last session, boys.
19:16And don't worry, I'm not gonna turn on the sap and tell you all how proud I am of you.
19:20Because if you don't know that already, you're idiots.
19:26Speaking for the group, I just wanna say how much our time together has meant to us.
19:30Oh.
19:31Thanks, guys.
19:32That means a lot.
19:34How about we read our last journal entry?
19:36Artie, you wanna start us off?
19:38Sure.
19:40So, block D's been flooded.
19:41What happened?
19:42Hundred-year-old sewage pipes.
19:44What happened?
19:44Everyone's been ordered to stay where they are.
19:46You too, George.
19:47Get comfortable.
19:48It may be a while.
19:52Look, let's double back this way.
19:55He's always bringing back any memories?
19:57I dropped out of high school to join a certain street gang.
20:00Crimson Vipers got you young, huh?
20:02Yeah, too young.
20:03You grow up quick when you're in a gang.
20:05What about you?
20:06I was always on the move, so I was homeschooled.
20:08I still learned trigonometry, but I used it for drawing blueprints for heists.
20:13So, no problem for you either?
20:15Nope.
20:15Never feel like you missed out?
20:17Sometimes I think it would've been nice to have a steady friend group, go to sweet
20:21sixteens, pet rallies, you know, the usual.
20:24How about you?
20:25Yeah.
20:26I guess a normal high school life would've been a lot easier.
20:29But then you wouldn't have become the man you are today.
20:34Hey, look at this.
20:38Someone didn't like Lexi?
20:40Nope.
20:43Olive.
20:44I tested Lexi's champagne glass and the champagne itself.
20:47There are no traces of sodium nitride on or in either.
20:50So it wasn't anything she ate or drank?
20:52But I did find traces of the poison on her lips.
20:55How did I get there?
20:56Lip balm.
20:57Her own brand.
20:58Were you able to pull any fingerprints off the tube of lip balm?
21:01Only the victims.
21:02But I did discover something surprising.
21:04Corn starch.
21:05She needed to thicken something?
21:07Surgical gloves.
21:08Exactly.
21:08The insides of surgical gloves are coated with corn starch.
21:11It makes them easier to put on.
21:12So the killer used gloves to handle the lip balm.
21:14If I find anything else, I'll let you know.
21:18What if Lexi's lip balm isn't the only one that was poisoned?
21:21We have to gather up all those lip balms and test them.
21:23I'll go tell the unis.
21:24Hey, we need to get the word out before anyone else gets hurt.
21:26The PA system.
21:27I'll make an announcement.
21:31What are you two doing?
21:34We were gonna go make out in the principal's office.
21:36Any updates?
21:37Yeah.
21:38Flexi was poisoned by her own lip balm.
21:40He's gonna make an announcement on the PA system.
21:47Oh my god.
21:50That's Ziggy.
21:56Is he alive?
21:57I'm gonna call 911.
21:59Yeah.
22:04Smellis?
22:05Smellis?
22:06Oh, Smellis, is that you?
22:07Wait, what did he call you?
22:08Nothing.
22:09He's delirious.
22:10Oh, Smellis.
22:12Smellis, my dude.
22:13Okay, this day just keeps getting better and better.
22:16Look, Z, we have some questions we need to ask you.
22:18Okay?
22:18I'm sorry, civilian.
22:19You heard the chief?
22:20Go park yourself over there and stay there.
22:24I cannot believe Smellis went full narc.
22:27Tell me about Lexi.
22:29Queen Amine.
22:30What about her?
22:32She died earlier today.
22:33Oh, woof.
22:34Oh, that's a trip.
22:37She's okay?
22:39She's dead.
22:41Okay, where were you between 12 and 1230?
22:44Yeah, I was just taking a stroll down memory lane.
22:47I saw Amber ducked in here.
22:48Why?
22:49Yeah, Amber, Lexi, and Hannah, they suck.
22:53What was Amber doing?
22:54She's going nuts.
22:55She was, like, tearing posters and swearing under her breath.
22:59Interesting.
23:00Right?
23:01Can you remember anything else?
23:02No.
23:03No, I saw Amber, hid out in here, place went up,
23:06and then I must have dozed off,
23:08because next thing I know, they're Smellis.
23:12Oh, my God, we're Smellis.
23:18Found these in the trash can near the science lab.
23:21That's awful.
23:23I mean, why would anybody do that?
23:24Lexi was, like, the most beautiful soul ever, and, like, I miss her already.
23:28We have a witness who saw you.
23:32Okay, fine, it was me.
23:33I tore them down.
23:34I was mad.
23:35But only because Lexi hijacked the entire reunion that I planned.
23:38How?
23:38I have been planning this reunion for months, and then she just swoops in last minute,
23:42pays for, like, a few bags of nachos, then plasters her stupid lip balm posters everywhere, and then, what, she
23:47got all the credit?
23:48We thought you two were best friends.
23:50So did I.
23:50And then I saw her and Hannah a few months ago at Babette's Bistro.
23:53Like, together.
23:54And they didn't even invite me, and Babette has, like, the cutest happy hour ever.
23:58And then this morning, I saw the two of them huddled together in the gym, and when I tried to
24:01join in,
24:02Lexi said that it was a private conversation just for her and Hannah.
24:05I mean, like, excuse me.
24:07She could be so fickle.
24:11Oh, but I didn't kill her.
24:13You were the only person on the second floor.
24:15No, I wasn't.
24:16Ziggy doesn't count.
24:17I'm not talking about Ziggy.
24:21Welcome to my old hideout.
24:23I knew you weren't a behind the bleachers kind of guy.
24:25There's definitely no making out happening here.
24:27The library was always empty, so I'd always come here to escape.
24:31Hmm.
24:31See? I knew you'd be back.
24:33I dug this out for you.
24:35Oh, my God.
24:37I can't believe you still have a copy of that.
24:39Justice Begins With Us, an essay by Cole Ellis.
24:43So you haven't changed at all, then.
24:45Actually, the essay's pretty good, but the story's the real gold.
24:48Tell me everything.
24:49Cole was a senior, and some of the football boys were picking on this scrawny little freshman now.
24:54Cole reported it to the administration, but they didn't do anything.
24:57So Cole, even though he was smaller than all of them, he walked right up to the biggest jock,
25:02and right in the middle of the cafeteria, he broke his nose.
25:05Well, those boys never picked on that kid again.
25:07That's right.
25:07But it also put a huge target on my back, which is why I'd always hide in here.
25:12Oh, that's why they called you Cole the Mole.
25:14Hold up in the library.
25:16Oh, my scrawny hero.
25:18Okay.
25:20I bet I can guess who the jock was.
25:22You lied about your whereabouts earlier.
25:24You were both seen on the second floor.
25:26We were just talking.
25:27With your tongues?
25:29Fine.
25:29It's my fault.
25:30I saw Brock go upstairs, so I went looking for him.
25:34I've had a crush since school, but Lexi got to him before I did.
25:37So today, after a few glasses of champagne, I saw my chance and I took it.
25:43Why did you lie to us?
25:44Because he's married.
25:45Yeah, my wife would kill me.
25:46So why were you up there?
25:48I went to look at the trophy case.
25:49The MVP title was supposed to be mine.
25:51I just, I wanted to see it again.
25:53Supposed to be yours?
25:54The night before the championship game, Lexi made us dinner.
25:57She knew all about my allergies.
25:59Corn, tomatoes, peanuts, cats, you name it, I'm allergic to it.
26:03Something in that meal triggered an attack.
26:05But she didn't do it on purpose.
26:07No, but it ruined my life.
26:08What, she couldn't remember something that might kill me?
26:10What kind of a girlfriend is that?
26:11But you didn't die.
26:12No, but I couldn't play.
26:13We lost the championship.
26:15Football dreams gone.
26:17And Lexi dumped me.
26:20Please don't tell my wife.
26:21Are you, are you okay there?
26:23Yeah, I don't know what it is.
26:25Something, something must have set me off.
26:28Tell us again about your allergies.
26:31Yeah, I was always rooting for you to solve your brother's case.
26:34I'm so glad you were able to put that to bed and,
26:37you know, find some peace.
26:39So was I.
26:40You seem happy.
26:42Yeah, I am.
26:42Good.
26:46Hey, I was looking through these yearbooks for more awkward Cole photos
26:49and I found something interesting.
26:50Okay, well look, whatever it is, I don't have any secrets left.
26:53Yeah, you might not.
26:55But I think somebody does.
26:59We need to find Max and Lee immediately.
27:07Are you hanging in there already?
27:08Shouldn't be too much longer?
27:10Hey, we got coffee, donuts.
27:12Things could be worse.
27:14Yeah.
27:16Hey, I'm sorry we didn't get to your story, man.
27:18Don't worry.
27:19It was just about a dumb thing when I was a kid.
27:22Don't tell me.
27:22I want to hear it.
27:25Well, it's about me and my big brother.
27:28After my first day of high school, he takes me to a convenience store to celebrate.
27:32He says he's going to get me something.
27:35He goes over to a rack, grabs a pack of gum, grins, drops it in my pocket and he walks
27:40away.
27:40And you got caught.
27:43Since I wrote it, I realized I've been taking the rap for this guy ever since.
27:48Is that what landed you in here?
27:50Yeah.
27:52The job of his went south and I took the heat.
27:56Sounds like he's using you.
28:00He's the only family I got.
28:02Listen up.
28:03Cell block D will be transferred to a different facility in the morning.
28:07We will move you to another section for the night.
28:09Let's go.
28:12Looks like I'm being transferred.
28:15Thanks for having me, George.
28:16Yeah, it's been a pleasure.
28:17You know, I have a feeling the best is yet to come.
28:20For both of us.
28:26It's come to my attention that some of my pupils have been caught cheating.
28:31That means you've been called up here because one of you killed Lexi.
28:34Someone here was lying about where they were during what we like to call in our business the murder window.
28:40It's not actually what we call it.
28:41All of you were on the second floor during that critical 30 minutes.
28:45Uh, doesn't that mean we couldn't have killed Lexi?
28:48On the contrary, Ziggy.
28:49It's actually quite the opposite.
28:51One of you went to the science lab, unlocked the cabinet, put on a pair of gloves and laced a
28:56lip balm with sodium nitrite and made sure that Lexi applied it.
29:01And you, Brock, you're the key to solving this whole mystery.
29:05Me?
29:07Look, I swear I didn't do it.
29:08Really?
29:09Why do you keep scratching your face like that?
29:11Look, I can't help it.
29:12I told you.
29:12I have allergies.
29:14Dust mites, grass, lobster, corn.
29:16That's the funny thing about allergic reactions.
29:18Sometimes it's about what you touch.
29:20And sometimes it's about what or who touches you.
29:23Isn't that right, Hannah?
29:26Oh, I don't know what we're talking about.
29:28You thought you were so smart putting on latex gloves.
29:32You thought you wouldn't get any fingerprints on the lip balm.
29:34But you did leave something behind even more incriminating on Brock.
29:38When you left the lab, you bumped into Brock.
29:40You knew you had been seen, so you distracted him with a kiss.
29:44It was a passionate one too, wasn't it, Brock?
29:47Yeah, it was pretty hot and heavy.
29:49Like grab your face and her hands hot and heavy?
29:51Oh, yeah.
29:52Sorry to break it to you, but it was fake.
29:54All a cover up.
29:55What are you talking about?
29:56Fun fact.
29:58Latex gloves are dusted with cornstarch powder.
30:01Makes it easy to take the gloves off and on.
30:04And guess who's allergic to all things corn-based?
30:07So when you grabbed Brock's face, you got some cornstarch residue from your fingers onto his beard.
30:11This is crazy.
30:13Lexi was my bestie.
30:15Do you remember what your yearbook quote was?
30:18No.
30:19Let me refresh your memory.
30:20Bloom softly, burn brightly.
30:23The same as Lexi's lip balm slogan.
30:26Except it wasn't just the slogan.
30:28It was the whole product idea.
30:30A lip balm infused with aromatherapy scents,
30:32each one designed to boost your energy, enhance mental clarity, calm your mood.
30:37And today, Lexi's company was just acquired for millions of dollars.
30:40She stole it from you.
30:41Quick patent search turned up your application for a lip balm named Emobalm.
30:45It also had the same slogan.
30:46Because Lexi also applied and was granted the patent.
30:49Beating you to it.
30:50Cheating you out of the product you created.
30:52She stole your idea.
30:53Just like she stole your boyfriend, Brock, back in high school.
30:55You're all out of your mind.
30:57Out of everyone here, you're the only one with a chemistry degree.
30:59That doesn't prove anything.
31:01But the glove powder does.
31:02So we're gonna bag your hands and get you down to the station.
31:04We've got a sophisticated infrared spectrometer that can detect microscopic cornstarch residue.
31:16Emobalm was my idea, not Lexi's.
31:18I confronted Lexi about it today and she just laughed.
31:21She told me to get a lawyer.
31:22She knew that I couldn't afford to fight it.
31:24You couldn't let her win, so you killed her.
31:27You're under arrest for the murder of Lexi Chandler.
31:30You know if it makes you feel any better?
31:32It is a killer lip balm.
31:37Kebab burrito combo.
31:40Never again.
31:42Alright, it's getting late.
31:44Who's coming in for the next shift?
31:46I don't know.
31:47Alright, well let me call Lee.
31:49See if you can swap us out for some unis.
31:52Where are you going?
31:53We're not going anywhere.
31:55What's happening?
31:55Did you really think that you were just...
31:57You're just gonna leave?
31:58You just...
31:59Without a word?
32:01So that's what this is all about.
32:03Wait a...
32:04This wasn't...
32:05This wasn't even a real stakeout, was it?
32:07We're just gonna slip out the back door like a raccoon at a buffet.
32:11You know Simmons, when you move, I move.
32:14And I know all your passwords.
32:17That was you?
32:18Yeah.
32:18Yeah.
32:22Alright.
32:24I'm leaving the precinct.
32:25I put in for an undercover task force.
32:28We vouched.
32:29I just got clearance.
32:30Different city.
32:31And I'm gonna need to lay low for a little while.
32:35How could you do this to me?
32:37I mean, was it Max?
32:39Was it Alice?
32:40Because if I need to beat someone up, you know I got it in me.
32:43I was gonna write you a letter.
32:45A letter?
32:47What is this, 1895?
32:49Why don't you send it via carrier pigeon while you're at it?
32:52Oh, I'm sorry.
32:53I...
32:54I didn't know how to tell you face to face.
32:56I've always been bad with goodbyes.
32:58Especially with you.
32:59I was hoping you'd be happy for me.
33:00I am happy for you, you stupid idiot.
33:06I can't believe I'm gonna walk into work and you're not gonna be there anymore.
33:11See, this is exactly why I didn't want to do this.
33:13Then don't go.
33:15Yates.
33:17I'm sorry I didn't find a better way to tell you.
33:20You still can.
33:21What now?
33:22Yeah.
33:23Now.
33:24And I want it all.
33:27Yates, you were the most dedicated, and tenacious, and...
33:33strange.
33:34I mean, you're a very strange detective.
33:37And you're my best friend.
33:39And you're the best partner I've ever had.
33:42You better than Ellis?
33:44Yes.
33:45Look, don't you dare tell him that.
33:47Okay, I won't tell him.
33:49I'm not gonna tell him.
33:51Come here.
33:57Oh.
33:59Sluto.
34:00Thanks.
34:03Are you crying?
34:04Mind your own damn business.
34:08God.
34:10Not crying.
34:12Just a little something for me.
34:14The piece de resistance, if you will.
34:16What?
34:19God.
34:20Are you kidding me?
34:22I had them made special.
34:23Big heads for the big brain guys.
34:27Yates, and I mean this in the most platonic way possible.
34:33I love you.
34:36Okay.
34:37Well, you've gone ahead and made it weird, so now we have to leave.
34:39It's true.
34:40You know.
34:41I'm gonna be texting updates of what I'm eating every day.
34:43Like, I'm a bee.
34:44Do not disturb annoying.
34:45Well, you know, I'm gonna be undercover, so it's probably best you don't do that.
34:48Don't text me.
34:49I'll text you.
34:52I love you so much, Simmons.
34:57You thought about your undercover name?
35:00You know, I don't think I get to choose that.
35:02Yeah, you're right.
35:02I'll pick it.
35:03How about, uh, Dirk Thunderpants?
35:05No, wait.
35:06Christoph Von Taco Lila.
35:07Or maybe Trish Skedaddle.
35:09That's fun.
35:14You know there's no infrared spectrometer cornstarch test, right?
35:18Am I supposed to know?
35:19I never graduated.
35:20Hey, Cole.
35:21Come here for a sec.
35:22I'll just be a moment.
35:24You guys wanna wait up?
35:24No, we'll head back to the station.
35:26Okay.
35:26I'll see you later.
35:27Good night.
35:31Jess?
35:32Cole Ellis.
35:33Will you be my prom date?
35:38What's all this?
35:40I heard about your prom experience.
35:42Did Max tell you?
35:43I'm a journalist.
35:44It's my job to uncover people's embarrassing secrets.
35:47Plus, every single one of your classmates can wait to tell me.
35:51It's definitely a night I'd like to forget.
35:53Which is why I think you deserve a redo.
35:57Can I have this dance?
36:00Come on.
36:01When the cool chick asks you to dance, you gotta do it.
36:10I'm sorry that happened to you.
36:12Don't be.
36:13It's okay.
36:14No, it's not okay.
36:16No, I mean it's okay because if it all ended this moment, then it was worth it.
36:30That settles it.
36:31High school sucks.
36:33Absolutely.
36:34And I'm kinda glad that we didn't have the typical experience, you know?
36:36Typical's overrated.
36:38Cliques.
36:38Pep rallies.
36:39Bad high school slow dances.
36:41Exactly.
36:42And we got the scars and street smarts instead.
36:44A way better conversation starter.
36:46And way fewer embarrassing yearbook photos.
36:49Oh.
36:50I'm saving this for a special occasion.
36:53Don't lose that.
36:54I won't.
36:55I uploaded it to the cloud.
36:56Nice.
36:58Shoot.
36:58I left my jacket in the cafeteria.
37:00You need a ride?
37:01Nope.
37:01I got my car.
37:02Okay.
37:02Good night, Max.
37:03Alright.
37:29Hey, Mom.
37:31As usual, your timing is flawless.
37:33Max, you need to get home now.
37:35We have a situation here.
37:44Mom?
37:45What's going on?
37:46Is everything okay?
37:48What is all this?
37:50I've been thinking.
37:51You mean spiraling?
37:52What?
37:53It's, uh...
37:54It's the smartest move.
37:56You'll see.
37:57What's in the bags?
37:58Just the essentials.
37:59Enough for us all to get settled.
38:02I am settled.
38:03I thought we already had this conversation.
38:04I know.
38:05But it's the plan.
38:06There are too many variables, too many ways for it to go sideways.
38:09We can be out of the country by dawn.
38:12Varga won't even know we're gone until it's too late.
38:14And then what?
38:15We just keep running?
38:16That's exactly what we're trying to stop.
38:19No.
38:19We stick to the plan.
38:20I know, but plans change and this is the new one.
38:23We can hide as a family.
38:24It is the smartest move, honey.
38:26But what about Ellis and my friends?
38:28If we leave, then we put them all in danger.
38:30Ellis is more than capable and the rest can fend for themselves.
38:33It's a calculated risk we have to take and they are not family.
38:35Maybe not to you, Mom.
38:37But to me, they are my family.
38:39And I can't run the risk of losing you again.
38:41I won't.
38:42You didn't lose me!
38:43You left!
38:45Do you remember the last thing we said to each other before you disappeared?
38:48No.
38:49Why does that matter?
38:50We had an argument.
38:51A stupid argument about how I didn't take the chicken out of the freezer before you came home.
38:56You lectured me about responsibility and how I need to put my family first.
39:00You just wouldn't let it go.
39:01What does this have to do with anything?
39:02Could you just help me get-
39:03I hate you!
39:07That is the last thing I said to you.
39:11I hate you.
39:14And then I stormed off.
39:16And I never saw you again.
39:18For 15 years, I carried that guilt like a stone in my heart.
39:24And you let me live with that.
39:28Oh, Max, honey.
39:31You were just a kid.
39:34Those words that I-
39:35I never thought I-
39:37It was just temper.
39:39Babe, do you know how hard that is for a kid to replay that memory over and over again?
39:46There wasn't a day that went by that I didn't think about the fact that the last words I said
39:51to my mom-
39:51Max, don't.
39:52Don't.
39:55I didn't know.
39:58I am so sorry.
40:03Can you ever forgive me?
40:11Max, wait. I-
40:13Please.
40:31Please.
40:33Please.
40:37Please.
40:39Please.
40:40Please.
40:41Please.
40:42Please.
