00:09This is about a dead teenager who was sleeping with your boy.
00:30On a video that I saw, got a little drunk, and we made out.
00:36I want to know why the esteemed attorney general's lawyer is threatening to sue my paper.
00:41We've just been served with an injunction preventing us from printing the Sam Charles story.
00:47I announced funding for the super jail. I did what he asked.
00:50I work for a higher power than Lawson.
00:55For the Zucados.
00:56Give me that phone.
00:57Have you any idea how many people died for this thing?
01:00Oh!
01:00Oh!
01:01Oh!
01:02Oh!
01:02Oh!
01:02Oh!
01:16I don't know.
01:37With all due respect, Mr. Reed, I doubt this injunction will hold up in court.
01:40Every judge in the province works for Sam Charles. This is clearly...
01:43The party, Justice Dickerson, resides in federal court.
01:47It's outside my client's jurisdiction. I see no issue of conflict here.
01:50This can't be happening.
01:51Now, this injunction allows me to examine every single document file, email,
01:55electronic device that relates to your story in order to determine whether Sam Charles is even alluded to.
02:02Whatever you have will be apart from publication.
02:06Is this thing solid, Marty?
02:08It is.
02:09And, of course, Hal, your team will assist in the inventory.
02:12We'll cooperate, Lewis.
02:13They've done their due diligence. There are no grounds for libel.
02:17You're letting them do this.
02:19All right, Hal. We'll go along with this.
02:22We'll give the Attorney General a chance to respond to the facts of the story.
02:26But you're only delaying the inevitable.
02:29Spoiler alert. We will publish this story.
02:32Okay, folks.
02:34You know what we're up against.
02:36And while they might delay the journalistic process, it doesn't mean we stop.
02:40So we'll double-check, triple-check, find new sources.
02:43By the time we're through, we'll know more about Sam Charles than he knows himself.
02:48I should warn all of you right now that nothing in this building leaves while we conduct the review.
02:53Like nothing.
02:58How toxic does your client want this?
03:00Court of public opinion is pretty harsh when it comes to politicians hiding behind bullshit loopholes.
03:05How will they know?
03:06The injunction forbids reporting on the injunction itself.
03:09It's kind of tidy that way.
03:10You asshole.
03:11Channing, what part of leave now don't you understand?
03:18I'm going to need a complete chronology of the events, timeline, that sort of thing.
03:23God, he'll get away with it.
03:26This is temporary.
03:27Come on.
03:30Simon, we need someone close to the story, with a cool head, to assist Mr. Reid on the timeline.
03:43I need you to tell me everything that's happened so far that pertains to Sam Charles.
03:46Well, it started when Daisy made a mistake in identifying the victim in the Suleiman murder story.
03:51When that was brought to paper for attention.
04:21I'd like to tell you something like this.
04:30Jim, I have something on Sam Charles I want to give you.
05:07I have something on Sam Charles I want to give you.
05:24I want to give you.
06:07I want to give you.
06:36I want to give you.
06:36What were you doing at the top of the Bluffs yesterday afternoon?
06:39I'm sorry, what exactly are you referring to?
06:41You were seen on a plateau at Bluffers Park at approximately 12.20 p.m.
06:47These photographs were taken by a traffic camera, placing you there roughly the same time Hassan Ali was pushed to
06:54his death.
06:56Hmm.
06:59Reason what I have for pushing this Ali...
07:03Are you sure you don't know him, sir?
07:07I'm drawing a blank.
07:17Mr. Hardcastle, do you recognize the name Suresh Mukherjee?
07:24Either a tennis player from the mid-90s or an obscure Bollywood director.
07:32I'd have to Google that.
07:33No need.
07:34How about jazz wireless?
07:37This is where you would want to tell us why you paid Mr. Mukherjee $200 for him to give you
07:43the phone number of this Hassan Ali you don't know.
07:46Seems he saw the news story about Ali's untimely death and felt immediately remorseful and being a devout Jainist.
07:53I believe it's pronounced Jainist.
07:55They practice nonviolence towards all living things.
07:58Thank you, Philip.
07:59I...
08:00I didn't call you Philip, right?
08:03Anyway, seeing that he's a devout Jainist, he came to us to confess his part in Hassan's sudden introduction to
08:10the force of gravity.
08:13I'll need to see my lawyer.
08:15I'm sure you do.
08:46I'm sure you do.
08:53I'm sure you do.
09:56Oh, shit.
09:58I was supposed to pick you up.
09:59Oh, my God.
10:00I'm so, I'm so sorry.
10:02I did forget, but honestly, Cass, this has been the craziest day.
10:09And explain why Daisy Channing is texting at two in the morning asking you to come and keep her company.
10:35Sam?
10:37Sam?
10:43Hi.
10:44Hi.
10:46I didn't think, um, you missed dinner, but it's in the warmer.
10:55Sorry.
10:56It's okay.
10:57I couldn't even get into my house to get clothes.
11:00It was just completely over and over with reporters.
11:06I want the drive and run.
11:11You're supposed to be exhausted.
11:12I am.
11:14I just want to take a shower and sleep for a year.
11:17I want to take a shower and sleep for a year.
11:20Oh.
11:22What happened?
11:24I broke a glass in the office.
11:28Look at you, band-aid.
11:34I'm so lucky to have you.
11:42Cassie.
11:43Cassie.
11:43I swear to you.
11:45She, she's on the outside of a story she made happen.
11:47She just needed a friend.
11:48What kind of friend, Simon?
11:50Do you think I don't get that you're attracted to her?
11:52Do you think I'm stupid?
11:53I'm not saying you're stupid.
11:55You're amazing.
11:56You're, you're smart.
11:57I don't even deserve you.
12:02Oh my God.
12:05You slept with her.
12:09Um.
12:24Man, I tell you, I want to get in a smuggle quick, but...
12:27Something's off.
12:28Yeah.
12:29Well.
12:31I put him in cell D.
12:32And they fix the plumbing yet?
12:34Not yet.
12:37I'm going home.
12:39Uh-huh.
12:46Detective Lutz.
12:48Yeah, sure.
12:50Um.
12:50I'll be down.
12:52It's a morgue.
12:54It says they have a body we may be interested in seeing.
13:00Shit.
13:02What the hell is that?
13:07Marco da Silva.
13:09Wasn't expecting that.
13:11How does Lawson's boy end up dead?
13:14It says right here the time of death was between ten and midnight.
13:17Hardcastle was in lockup.
13:19If he didn't do the murder, who did?
13:22Who did?
13:29Who did?
13:38Who did?
13:40What the hell is it?
13:42Well.
13:55He went to school, Prince Mambo.
13:57I'm going to continue.
13:58I'm going to go.
13:58I'm going to go.
13:58What is it?
14:00What is it?
14:02What is it?
14:03It has a lot of you foot, like, Japan.
14:05This is OK.
14:05If so change the network.
14:05I want to go.
14:06Let's do it.
14:46Thank you, Louis. That's reassuring.
14:49Yes, but keep in mind, Sam, they can publish a version of the story as long as it doesn't run
14:54afoul of the injunction's parameters.
14:56Can you remind them that at the slightest inference of an intimate relationship between Khalid Suleiman and myself,
15:01and I will use every ounce of my considerable power to destroy them.
15:05I'll hold them in contempt, I'll put them in jail, and then we'll have their assets seized.
15:09Understood.
15:11Sorry you had to hear that.
15:13It's fine. I'm actually here about Hardcastle.
15:16He's been arrested.
15:18Reads people are all over it.
15:19It's murder, Sam. What is going on?
15:21I don't know, but there can't be any substance to it.
15:23When we announced the commission, we knew that they would come after me.
15:26I expect this is nothing more than the chief trying to smear me by proxy.
15:29I will do whatever you need, Sam.
15:32But if we're going to get through this, you have to be completely honest with me about everything.
15:40Always.
16:04Hey, Daisy Channing, right?
16:07Jim from Ruckus.
16:11How are we doing this?
16:14Jim, um, I didn't want to not show up, but actually, we're not doing this.
16:24What? You're kidding.
16:30Please.
16:32Look, they scrubbed my story from the internet.
16:35You can't find it anywhere.
16:37My boss escaped. He took all my research.
16:40Wow.
16:41Yeah.
16:41So, show me what you got.
16:43We collaborate and whatnot.
16:44This story goes viral.
16:45We write our own ticket.
16:46You know, the Globe, the New York Times.
16:49No.
16:56Hey.
16:57Hey, I said no.
17:03Ah!
17:05Get out!
17:06Get out!
17:07Jesus, you fucking nuts!
17:08Get the fuck out of my car!
17:10Get out of here!
17:11Bitch, fuck out of here!
17:13Fucking insane!
17:14Fuck you!
17:15Fuck you!
17:25Simon!
17:27Hey, Simon!
17:31We have to talk.
17:33Yeah.
17:34About last night.
17:37Oh.
17:38Right, I...
17:40I was being stupid, but honestly, you won't believe what happened.
17:43No, hold on. You don't get it.
17:43You totally...
17:45You totally fucked me last night.
17:47What?
17:49Cassie came home.
17:50She read your texts.
17:52Oh, God.
17:55I was angry.
17:55What did you want?
17:56You wanted to sleep with me, or you just wanted to mess with me?
17:58Simon, please.
17:59We have to talk to Mary.
18:00They shut down the Ruckus story.
18:01It's nowhere.
18:03What?
18:05The Silva?
18:08You want to tell us where you were between 10 p.m. and 12 a.m. last night?
18:11Oh, come on.
18:12You're the last person he called, and your number's popped off a bunch on his cell since then.
18:15You know where I was?
18:18What exactly are you saying, Mr. Lawson?
18:20Oh, come on. We all know I'm under surveillance, all right?
18:23And just for the record, I'm an upstanding citizen.
18:25I pay my taxes.
18:27I have a charity for disadvantaged youth.
18:29I employ hundreds of people.
18:31So why am I being harassed?
18:34Hassan Ali, Marco De Silva, two people who were working for you, have been murdered.
18:39So cut the bullshit and tell us what's going on.
18:44All right, all right.
18:45Look, I don't feel good about throwing a guy who just passed under the bus, okay?
18:50But De Silva was stealing large quantities of drugs out of his office.
18:54You said the same thing about Hassan Ali.
18:57You said it's why you fired him?
18:58Yes, yes, yes, that's right, that's right.
19:01Under further investigation, we realized that De Silva enlisted Ali as a go-between with his gang, and he was
19:08supplying him.
19:09Where's De Silva getting all this dope?
19:13It pains me that I so misjudged this man.
19:16I mean, he was a great fleet manager, but he had mafia ties dating back to the time he was
19:21with the police department, and I guess he just never shed those relationships.
19:25You're saying De Silva's murder was mob-related?
19:27Well, I can't know that for sure, but under the circumstances.
19:31It has nothing to do with the fact that you were hooking up the AG with party favors at your
19:35sex club.
19:36Hey.
19:37Consenting adults attended those parties.
19:40Consenting adults.
19:44You know what?
19:45Check my whereabouts.
19:47I'm not worried.
20:01That's all of it.
20:03Don't even ask what you thought you were doing.
20:06I didn't think.
20:06Okay, Marty looked into Ruckus, and Daisy's right.
20:10Sam Charles' story has been scrubbed from the net.
20:12They've issued a retraction, and they fired the blogger.
20:16That being said, Marty, what's our possible workaround on this bloody story?
20:23We could write about the murder victims.
20:25Who they were, but not the why, if it's related to the video, and by extension, Charles.
20:30Okay.
20:31But I think we can do more character damage if we leak little bits and pieces.
20:36Let's begin with the Lawson sex parties, Daisy.
20:40We have Avril Trong.
20:42Right.
20:45Madam blackmailer, murdered girlfriend of Hassan Ali.
20:49But we can't mention Sam Charles as a target of blackmail, or the video.
20:52What about the judge in Orlando?
20:54No.
20:55No blackmail, no corruption, just kinky sex and bad judgment.
20:59Harry Bicham.
21:01He doesn't lead anywhere.
21:02But he confirms the sex parties.
21:04Correct.
21:06Why don't we get that from Avril?
21:08She ran the exotic prostitutes.
21:10Why don't we find one and see if they'll share?
21:12Simon, can you handle that?
21:14Yeah.
21:15Next, what about the super jail?
21:17We have Lawson in bed with the Zucatos.
21:19The familia has gone to great pains to clean up their image.
21:23We could spin out an entire feature on that, and then deal with Lawson.
21:26It's still public record that Sam Charles approved the super jail after going on record against it.
21:31Right after Hassan was murdered.
21:33Can we publish that party?
21:35About the story itself, sure.
21:37But not Sam Charles' motivations.
21:40Anything having to do with the video is radioactive.
21:44But it makes no sense.
21:46Without the video, there's no connective tissue.
21:53That's the bugger.
21:55We've got this great big story with an even bigger hole in the center until something changes.
22:00We just rework that story.
22:04Keep slicing away.
22:06Next, Khalid Suleiman.
22:27Sanan, please.
22:29Unless we publish, the men who killed his son and your brother will get away with murder.
22:34Is that what you want?
22:36What I want doesn't matter.
22:40Nothing I do seems to matter.
22:45Sanan, it's so hard to think about what you must be feeling.
22:50But you can't give in to this grief.
22:54They died alone.
22:56In the cold.
22:57They didn't deserve that.
22:58I know.
22:59So help me.
23:01Is there anything you can think of?
23:03Anyone who knows more?
23:07Daisy Channing confirmed seeing video on the phone of Charles having sex with Khalid Suleiman, the first victim.
23:14Then the girlfriend of Hassan, Ali, is murdered by some guy who has some serious artillery looking for a phone.
23:20Second victim.
23:21In that ruckus reporter, he said Ali was trying to sell him a sex tape, but was murdered before he
23:25could buy it.
23:26Ali's the third victim.
23:28Okay.
23:28All roads lead to Sam Charles in some kind of blackmail.
23:31Question.
23:31How does Da Silva's murder fit into this?
23:33Don't know for sure.
23:36But it's connected to Lawson.
23:38He's Ali's and Da Silva's boss.
23:40He knew that we had a wire on him, but still risked meeting with Charles.
23:43Why?
23:44I put a rush on Da Silva's gun.
23:45We should have ballistics today.
23:47You know what bothers me?
23:48Whoever killed Da Silva, they didn't take his wallet, his phone, his gun.
23:52Like they want us to find something.
23:53Maybe that's why the boss wants us to talk to Sam Charles.
23:58As in bringing Charles and asking him if he was being blackmailed by Lawson and conveniently murdered Da Silva?
24:03Mm-hmm.
24:04As in gently asking him a few questions in his office?
24:07Yes, he's still the most powerful man in law enforcement.
24:24Thank you for seeing us, Mr. Attorney General.
24:26We have a warrant to search Mr. Hardcastle's office.
24:30Have a seat, guys.
24:31Please.
24:35Can I see the warrant?
24:37Uh, yes, sir.
24:40And, uh, if you don't mind, we'd like to ask you a couple of questions.
24:46Go ahead.
24:53Chloe's my senior aide.
24:55She's fine.
24:58Were you aware of a relationship between Mr. Hardcastle and Hassan Ali, the victim?
25:03Relationship?
25:04We have evidence that Mr. Hardcastle was tracking Mr. Ali.
25:09I'm sure you're mistaken.
25:10We have an eyewitness.
25:12Did you know Mr. Ali, sir?
25:15Oh, I may have met him at one of Eric Lawson's community service events.
25:18We're official sponsors.
25:19I expect that's how Hardcastle knows him.
25:22Actually, he said he didn't know him at all.
25:23Oh, well, he'd know better than I.
25:27His office is right next door.
25:29Thank you, sir.
25:31You're welcome.
25:33Sir, one more thing.
25:38Can you tell me your whereabouts last night?
25:43My whereabouts?
25:46I don't see how that's relevant.
25:48With all due respect, sir, without accounting for your whereabouts,
25:51a special prosecutor will have to take over the investigation.
25:53That won't be necessary.
25:56The attorney general is being a gentleman.
25:58But we're dating.
26:01Last night he was with me.
26:05Can anyone else verify your relationship with Miss Channing?
26:09My sister.
26:10I believe you know Daisy, Detective Lutz.
26:43I believe in Miss Channing, Detective Lutz.
26:44I believe her.
26:48Detective Lutz, we got the ballistics report.
26:51You're going to love this.
26:53Sure, on our way.
26:56Based on ballistics and forensic evidence,
26:59we can conclude that Mr. Marco De Silva
27:01is responsible for a series of murders,
27:04including that of Khalid Suleiman and Admiral Tron.
27:08Both victims were shot by a weapon found on Mr. De Silva.
27:12The body of Mr. De Silva was discovered yesterday morning.
27:18We are also investigating Mr. De Silva's involvement in a third murder,
27:21that of his associate, Mr. Ali.
27:47How are you going?
27:48Stunned, like everyone else.
27:55I thought you were mad at me.
28:01You know parts of my case that I don't.
28:04That's why I'm here.
28:07Okay.
28:09But I was wrong about Charles.
28:12De Silva killed them.
28:13Sure.
28:15But who killed De Silva?
28:17The mob?
28:19That's where the wind's blowing.
28:22But I can't shake the feeling that Charles did De Silva.
28:26I have zero credibility about this right now.
28:29But you agree.
28:30No one has a stronger motivation for wanting De Silva done than Charles.
28:38Okay.
28:40What can I do?
28:43Your sister.
28:45She's his alibi.
28:46I think she's lying.
28:48Chloe's pretty much cut me off.
28:49She's seeing Sam Charles.
28:51Is that okay with you?
28:59Someone knows more about Khalid.
29:02I'm definitely coming.
29:06Thanks for agreeing to talk with us, Nazeem.
29:09Can you start at the beginning?
29:12Hassan.
29:14He was tired of how Lawson was using him.
29:17He hired him out of that fake charity of his, but he was really to supply his parties with drugs.
29:23And then Lawson met Hassan's girlfriend.
29:26Avril.
29:29Yeah.
29:30Avril.
29:32So now he's got his supply and his freak show parties with skanks.
29:36I was doing food prep and Khalid was bartending, but...
29:39Khalid got corrupted with their sickness.
29:42You mean because he was gay?
29:43He wasn't gay.
29:44Your people did this.
29:45Hi, Teresa.
29:49In our culture, homosexuality is not accepted.
29:53We would have to shun him.
29:55So what happened next?
29:57Khalid became friends with the rich boy.
30:00And then with Sam Charles.
30:01I mean, we had to get him away.
30:03So Hassan decided to blackmail Sam Charles by taking the video?
30:07We were going to leave this place for good.
30:09We had other targets.
30:12Rolandia Spence?
30:13That was our mistake.
30:15He went straight to Lawson who told the Silva who beat the shit out of Hassan.
30:20Silva would have killed him, but these mob guys would have wanted to have something with Sam Charles.
30:26That's why they wanted the phone.
30:28Promise to let him go if they got it.
30:30But he exposed them.
30:34He thought the story could protect him.
30:42Okay.
30:43I'm done.
30:44I owe you nothing more.
30:45Wait, just a minute there, Nazeem.
30:47Nazeem.
30:49Hey, Nazeem.
30:52Whoa, hey.
30:53Nazeem, that was a great story, but I'm still confused about something.
30:57All this time, you watch your boys die one by one.
31:01You tell me you kept nothing to protect yourself?
31:04You talk.
31:04The video.
31:05You didn't make a copy?
31:07No.
31:09I didn't.
31:11All right.
31:12Not all right.
31:13Now, the way I see it, I could arrest you for obstruction of justice.
31:18Or drug trafficking.
31:19Or what, you mentioned something about a prostitution ring?
31:24Or you can walk away.
31:26But I need you to give me the copy you made of Khalid's video.
31:50Good choice.
31:55Have a good life, Nazeem.
32:24Please have these hand delivered to the prosecutor's office.
32:27District 1 through 12.
32:30Well, if I knew I'd get a standing O, I would have gotten arrested earlier.
32:36Back to work.
32:37Well said.
32:39Welcome back, Phil.
32:42Soon, this will all be behind us.
32:50What do you want?
32:52Chloe.
32:53Hey.
32:54I know you're angry.
32:57But there's something I need to show you.
33:00Can we talk?
33:02Yeah.
33:04Let's talk.
33:05I'm on my way.
33:06I'm on my way.
33:26Wow.
33:28Do you realize how destructive what you do is?
33:34Look, let's not fight.
33:38I just need you to watch this.
33:50Oh my God.
33:52You have it.
33:53Oh my God.
33:55Oh my God.
34:15I don't know.
34:43I don't know.
35:35I don't know.
36:08I don't know.
36:10I don't know.
36:10I don't know.
36:19I don't know.
36:22I know everyone lies.
36:25But some lies, they destroy everything.
36:32I did not kill Khalid Suleiman.
36:34But you loved him.
36:36No.
36:37It wasn't just making out.
36:39You were in love with him.
36:40Oh, my God.
36:41Why are you listening to your sister?
36:42You said it yourself.
36:43She's insane.
36:45Maybe she's using again.
36:46Maybe that's what it is.
36:48Whatever it is, honey, don't let it get inside your head.
36:51Khalid.
36:53Khalid meant nothing.
36:54The night Marco da Silva was killed, where were you?
37:00I told you I wanted to...
37:01I found blood on your shirt.
37:03I washed it.
37:04That's how much I love you.
37:07And if you feel the same, you will tell me the truth.
37:10Please, there can't be any more secrets.
37:45I met Da Silva.
37:48We had a deal.
37:49He had the phone.
37:51And...
37:51But his, uh, his bosses, they wanted to own me.
37:57I...
37:59He came with me.
38:01And I...
38:02I...
38:05I...
38:05I needed to make it stop.
38:12I killed him.
38:20I killed him.
38:28It's okay.
38:30There's nothing else.
38:31No.
38:33It's okay.
38:34Chloe.
38:35I'm sorry.
38:37What?
38:38Sam Charles.
38:38You're under arrest for murder.
38:40What?
38:41You have the right to retain counsel.
38:43Why?
38:43And it's drug counsel.
38:45Anything you say can be used...
38:45Just a minute.
38:46Hang on a second.
38:47Why would you do this?
38:48Why would you do this?
38:49I love you.
38:50Oh, yeah.
38:51I love you.
38:52I don't believe you.
38:54Anything you say can be used as evidence in court.
38:57Do you understand?
38:58Would you like to speak to a lawyer?
39:00No.
39:03No.
39:03No.
39:04No.
39:05No.
39:08No.
39:08No.
39:11I'm so sorry.
39:12I'm so sorry.
40:06It's good, right?
40:09Yeah, but self-defense.
40:13Lewis Reed is one slick lawyer.
40:15Yeah, well, even if he does get off,
40:17Sam Charles isn't gonna come back from this.
40:20Yeah, probably not.
40:28Hey, Simon.
40:31Do you want to get out of here for a while?
40:35I don't know, maybe grab a bite.
40:41I'm sorry.
40:43I have lunch with Cassie.
40:47Of course.
40:49I totally understand.
41:05Hey, check this out.
41:08Rossif is sitting in the government for $500 million.
41:11Look at that.
41:13Look at that.
41:14Look at the comment section.
41:15Have you seen this?
41:16They've already got over.
41:39do you want me to read it?
41:54Secrets kept, now found out
41:58Voices raised, now drowned out
42:02Lessons learned, crash and burn
42:06Secrets shared, tables turned
42:12Waited, waited, waited, waited
42:14Till now
42:20I'll find my way somehow
42:25Life, you can't come back, come back to me
42:28Your love, your love, your love, your love, your love, your love, your love, your love, your love
42:33Your lies, your lies, your lies, your lies, no, no
42:38Bye-bye.
