00:27Please, you don't have to do this.
00:44Please, you don't have to do this.
01:00Great, I'll let her know.
01:01Hey, Randy, um, need a favor.
01:05Yeah, man, what's up?
01:06You remember that neurologist I was telling you about, the one my dad was working with, Walt Fleming?
01:09Yeah, yeah, you met his son in Boston, right?
01:12That's the one, yeah, yeah.
01:14So I called Yale and Stanford, talked to a couple of the department heads, tried to figure out what those
01:18two were working on.
01:19Okay, any luck?
01:20Not much.
01:21They were telling me that they were working on something called Necronostasis Institute.
01:26What did they do?
01:26I don't know what they do.
01:28That's the thing.
01:28I was hoping maybe you could poke around a little bit, find something out for me.
01:31Yeah, you know it.
01:33But, you know, we're talking analog era, patchy records and all.
01:36Yeah, I'll just take whatever you can get.
01:37I got you, brother.
01:38Thanks, buddy.
01:51Hi, Colter Shaw.
01:53Uh, Grace, thank you for coming.
01:55Yeah.
01:55Please, come in.
02:00So your husband's been missing since last night?
02:02Yeah, Tech said that he had to work late.
02:04Works for the DWP.
02:05That's right.
02:06I tried to wait up for him, but I fell asleep.
02:08He never came home.
02:11Now Finn's phone keeps going to voicemail, and none of his friends have seen or heard from him.
02:15And today was my eight-month ultrasound.
02:18We were going to talk birth plans with our doctor.
02:20He never would have missed that.
02:22He was way too excited to meet our little girl.
02:25Look, you can see for yourself.
02:27Sure.
02:37Almost everything in our house is a hand-me-down or used, except for this room.
02:43He's been putting it together for months.
02:46He wants the best for our girl.
02:49He doesn't even want me going back to work after she's born, so I can be there for her.
02:53Okay.
02:54And this is his?
02:55This is Finn's?
02:56Yeah.
02:56Do you mind if I go through it?
02:57No, please.
02:58Okay.
03:12Maybe your husband cut himself while he was working up here?
03:14No, I would have seen it.
03:16But he's come home from work with burns and bruises before.
03:21What's that all about?
03:22His supervisor pushes them so hard.
03:24Finn says accidents happen.
03:28So, is it possible maybe something happened at work last night where they've called you about that?
03:32Yeah, no, not this guy.
03:35Okay, I'm going to start there.
03:36I just need the address of the job site.
03:38As you can see, we don't have a lot of money.
03:42But everything I've put together, everything I have, it's yours.
03:46Just please bring Finn home.
03:49I'll do everything I can for you.
04:09Excuse me.
04:11Hi.
04:11Looking for your supervisor?
04:13Yeah, Kelly's back by the box.
04:15Alright, thank you.
04:27Jesus!
04:28This is what happens when you bond the wrong leg.
04:30That's all right.
04:30That's 7,000 volts.
04:32You touch it, you're a human torch.
04:33I didn't know.
04:34And that's what kills people.
04:35Do better, or I'll put you back on scrap detail.
04:41Excuse me.
04:43You from Ocean or the city?
04:45Neither.
04:45I'm looking for Finn Helms.
04:47He's missing.
04:49His wife hired me to find him.
04:50Said he was working last night.
04:52No one's heard from him since.
04:53You said last night?
04:54Yeah.
04:54Doyle, go get the conduit off the truck.
05:02Something happened last night?
05:04I wouldn't know.
05:06Haven't seen Finn in months.
05:07Haven't seen him in months?
05:09Two months to be exact.
05:12Fired him.
05:14Well, his wife didn't mention that.
05:15Guess we all got secrets.
05:18Why'd you fire him?
05:19Caught him taking materials off my job site.
05:22Said he was borrowing it for another job.
05:24He was moonlighting.
05:26I don't know.
05:27Didn't ask, didn't care.
05:29The thief's a thief.
05:32Now, if you don't mind, I got an inspector coming in two hours.
05:35Hope you find him.
05:42Doyle.
05:43Right?
05:45Yeah.
05:46Yeah.
05:47You buddies with Finn?
05:48I noticed you seemed a little concerned when I brought him up.
05:50Yeah.
05:50Look, man, um, Kelly's already on my ass, okay?
05:53So I don't want to attract any more attention.
05:55I really need this job, okay?
05:56Nothing like that.
05:57No, I'm just trying to figure out what happened to him, where he might have gone.
05:59So now your boss said that, uh, he fired him a few months ago for stealing for another
06:03job?
06:03I mean, I wouldn't exactly call it stealing, but, uh, yeah, he said he was going to borrow
06:07some stuff.
06:08He's going to replace it, though.
06:09Okay.
06:10What was that job?
06:11He's just pulling cash gigs off Power Up.
06:13Off of Power Up?
06:14Yeah.
06:15What's that?
06:15What's, what's Power Up?
06:17Power Up is, like, an app some of the guys around here use just to get extra work and
06:21stuff, like upgrade a board, bypass a meter, stuff like that.
06:26Why would he lie to his wife about something like that?
06:28I don't know.
06:29Maybe because not all the jobs on there are above board.
06:34Okay.
06:35And is he still doing that kind of work?
06:36Yeah.
06:37I mean, sometimes he kicks me cash to help out.
06:40Was he working last night?
06:41Yeah.
06:42He called me, asked if I wanted to help him on a rewire job, but a date.
06:46Yeah.
06:47Okay.
06:48Did he mention where that, that job might be?
07:14Yeah.
07:28Okay.
07:33Okay.
07:34Okay.
07:34Okay.
07:59You find something on thing?
08:00Not his van, no sign of him.
08:02This house job he was working on,
08:03it looks like they were tapping into fiber,
08:05probably stealing information.
08:06Okay, explains why he didn't want to call his wife.
08:09Something went wrong here, though.
08:10Someone got electrocuted.
08:11On the ladder, there's melted rubber.
08:13That can't be good.
08:14Finn?
08:14I don't know.
08:15There's two sets of tools here.
08:17It's definitely not a job you'd want to do solo.
08:19Okay, so someone else must have been there,
08:20left in a hurry, yeah?
08:22Listen, there's a security camera on the house
08:24that I spotted. It's pointing in this direction.
08:25Can you tap into that thing?
08:31Okay.
08:34All right, I'm in.
08:36Sending you the feed now.
08:40Looks like they're carrying a body.
08:43Really hope that's not fitting that tarp.
08:47Need to know where that truck's going.
08:50I'm looking.
08:52Okay.
08:53I got on a traffic cam across town,
08:55but then I lose it.
08:57Anything in the area?
08:58A place they could hide or maybe dump a body?
09:00Yep.
09:01Looks like woods.
09:03Some undeveloped lots, maybe.
09:05Great.
09:05Can you send me a pin?
09:07I already did.
09:08All right, I got it.
09:09Thanks, Randy.
09:10The liability shield is a non-negotiable.
09:12Jerry, the clause stays.
09:17Okay.
09:17Well, if you want to contest it,
09:18you can put it in writing.
09:21Great.
09:22I look forward to getting it.
09:25Sorry to interrupt.
09:26No, no worries.
09:27What's up?
09:27You have a visitor?
09:29Oh, I didn't see anything on the schedule.
09:31Yeah, yeah.
09:32I think it's more of like a walk-in type of thing.
09:36Um...
09:36He's cute.
09:40Hey, come in.
09:45Mark!
09:47Um...
09:49What are you doing here?
09:51Well, I'm in town for work.
09:53I remembered you lived here.
09:54Turns out there's only one lawyer named Rini in Denver.
09:58Well...
10:02Wait, aren't you a bartender?
10:05Close.
10:07I'm a brand rep for a mezcal company.
10:09Launching a new product in Denver's one of our test markets.
10:12I'm sorry to drop in like this.
10:13I just didn't see if you were free for dinner.
10:17I am flattered, really.
10:19But I am just slammed, so...
10:25Well, if you do need to come up for air...
10:27I'll be at the Howland downtown.
10:29You can call or drop by.
10:32No pressure.
10:35I will keep that in mind.
10:46Uh-uh.
10:47Not a word.
10:48I'm still looking for air...
10:54I don't need the water.
10:55wardrobe clothes.
11:01Let's go.
11:48Hey!
11:51What do you guys got?
11:54Who the hell are you?
11:59What the hell is that?
12:02None of your business.
12:04I know you ain't a cop.
12:07Tell you what, why don't you crawl down in that hole and unwrap that tarp?
12:10Don't move.
12:13This guy don't have the balls.
12:18Crawl down in the hole and unwrap the tarp.
12:49Okay, now hold on.
12:50We didn't kill him.
12:52It was an accident.
12:55Who is he?
12:56Some tweaker we picked up to help with the job we were working on.
12:59Illegally tapping lines.
13:00That's right.
13:02But this guy must have been high or something.
13:04He never should have been up on a ladder.
13:06Then he goes and touches the transformer and fries himself.
13:08We told him to watch his ass.
13:09This guy is a screw-up.
13:11He will not be missed, you understand?
13:13And what about Finn?
13:14He feel the same way?
13:15Finn freaked out after the axiom.
13:17Did he call the cops?
13:17Oh man, Paolo talked him down.
13:19Who's Paolo?
13:20The guy who hired us.
13:21Said he was going to take Finn for a couple beers.
13:23Well, Finn never made it home.
13:27You know something?
13:29There's something you want to tell me?
13:30Where Paolo might have taken Finn?
13:32He has a building.
13:33Downtown.
13:34Downtown.
13:34Okay.
13:35We're going to call this in.
13:37Alright?
14:12We're going to call this out.
14:19Okay.
14:28We're going to call this.
15:32You're Paolo?
15:34You gotta help me, Ben.
15:40Ben, do this to you?
15:43No.
15:47I was just going to scare him in to keep him quiet.
16:11I mean, we screwed up.
16:13We're calling the cops.
16:16I couldn't let them do that.
16:33I drug myself in the air.
16:36I mean, you gotta call somebody.
16:37You gotta help.
16:38Did you see who hit you?
16:40Some crazy chick.
16:43You didn't know who she was?
16:45Oh, Finn sure did.
16:47She got out of the car.
16:49She went straight for him.
16:53I think she was his wife.
16:56This woman, was she pregnant?
16:59No, no.
17:00Not this lady.
17:05Wait, you think Finn was having an affair?
17:07I don't know.
17:08I think it's possible.
17:09You check his socials, see if he's had contact with anyone?
17:15Not seeing anything sus.
17:17Whoever she is, there's no obvious digital connect.
17:20Maybe they went at work?
17:21You check his power-up account?
17:24Power-up?
17:31Oh, this might be something.
17:33What do you got?
17:38Okay, um, a woman named Adele Messino hired Finn to install some lighting a few weeks ago,
17:44and they got some messages on the app.
17:46This chat is awfully personal.
17:47So what are they saying?
17:48She says, so crazy seeing you after all this time.
17:52Felt like fate.
17:53Smiley, blushy face.
17:54Heart.
17:55Heart.
17:55And then he says, yeah, really good seeing you.
17:58Later.
17:59Any idea how they met?
18:03Okay.
18:05Looks like they met on a dating app about three years ago.
18:08Well, he was seeing his wife at that time, right?
18:11Yeah, I got the archives of their chat.
18:13So it looks like they met when Finn and Grace were on a break,
18:16and then they got back together, and he ended things with Adele,
18:19and been no contact since.
18:21Until she hired him for that job.
18:23Okay, so maybe they rekindled things and seen each other on the DL.
18:27I mean, that would explain why he didn't check in with his wife last night.
18:30Eh, maybe, I don't know.
18:31You, uh, gonna tell Grace about this?
18:33No, no, I'm not gonna tell anyone till I know for sure.
18:36Could use the address of that Adele if you have it.
18:38That's why I sent it.
18:40Perfect, got it.
18:41Thanks, Randy.
18:51Hey.
18:52Hey.
18:59What happened?
19:00You were shot.
19:02But luckily, the bullet went right through, so I was able to patch you up.
19:06And don't worry.
19:08No hospitals.
19:09No police.
19:10No one knows where you are.
19:13Especially not your wife.
19:15I need to go home.
19:16Or call her or something.
19:20I don't think that's a good idea.
19:32It's for your safety.
19:33Seriously.
19:38How's it going?
19:42Wait.
19:51Let's go.
20:15Let's go.
20:43Let's go.
21:13Let's go.
21:49Rini, what's up?
21:51Adele Messino is not at all who she says she is.
21:54She changed her name eight years ago from Adele Livers, and Adele Livers was arrested for stalking and attacking her
22:01ex-boyfriend.
22:02I mean, she was eventually remanded into psychiatric treatment, but she's been in and out of facilities ever since.
22:07Yeah, I'm at her place right now.
22:09She seems, uh, unstable at best.
22:14Oh, no.
22:14What'd you find?
22:15Found a journal.
22:17She's got endless love letters to Finn.
22:19She's fantasizing about a life with him.
22:20She, she edited her own face into his wedding photo, and I don't even want to tell you about this
22:25bear that I'm staring at right now.
22:27Wow.
22:27Okay, so she wasn't having an affair with Finn then?
22:30No, no, I don't think so.
22:31I think she was stalking him.
22:32I don't know for how long.
22:35I'm, I'm thinking maybe she, if she was following him last night, she saw him in an altercation, she'd intervened.
22:42So, if she didn't bring him back to her place, then where are they?
22:48Yeah.
22:54I need something here.
22:56It's a luxury home rental that she manages.
23:00It's a brochure.
23:01Or maybe she, maybe she took him there.
23:22What are you doing?
23:27I was just trying to get some water.
23:34I'm really thirsty.
23:36Okay.
23:38That is what the restraints are for.
23:43So you don't hurt yourself any more than you are.
23:51What are we doing here, Del?
23:53You remember our first date?
23:55I got that flat tire on the bridge and you changed it for me in the rain.
24:02I, I remember.
24:06Almost got hypothermia.
24:09You're so sweet.
24:11I'm so kind.
24:14I knew right then that we just had this special thing, this spark.
24:23I know you felt it too.
24:25I know you felt it too.
24:27Right?
24:29Oh.
24:30And you went back to Greece anyway.
24:35I, I've got to admit I was, uh, I was really heartbroken after that.
24:41I went to that bridge numerous times.
24:45Just wondering what went wrong.
24:50I haven't thought about jumping, but then the universe was, I swear, it was just testing me.
25:00It was telling me I needed to be patient.
25:03That you would come back to me and look, here you are.
25:06I think, I should go home.
25:13But this could be your home, Finn.
25:16Our home.
25:18We have everything here that we need to be happy.
25:21It doesn't have any of that garage sale crap your wife puts in your house.
25:27I didn't know what's inside my house.
25:31When Grace posted her maternity announcement, I had to go.
25:37I had to see for myself if it was true.
25:45Was it a coincidence that you hired me for that job, was it?
25:48Of course not.
25:50But I had to find a way to get us together.
25:52And then I saw you working on this place and I was like, we were already building something so beautiful
25:58together.
25:58It was just a wire job, Adele.
26:00It was a cry for help.
26:02When you confessed to me that you were fired and you couldn't even tell your own wife.
26:08That is not what I think.
26:08You don't have to explain.
26:12You confided in me.
26:14And I am so honored that you did.
26:19I want to help you.
26:22So you've been following me since...
26:24Following?
26:27I don't think following is the right word.
26:30Looking out for you is more like it.
26:32And I was right there when you needed me, when that man tried to kill you.
26:36Everything happens for a reason.
26:41And you are here.
26:43And you're safe.
26:48We can start over.
26:53Listen, Adele.
26:56I am so thankful for everything you've done for me.
26:59Truly.
27:01But I can't just leave my wife and child.
27:05I...
27:07But what if they were to go away?
27:11What if Grace had an accident?
27:13It happens all the time.
27:17You're crazy.
27:22You need to let me go.
27:30After everything I've done for you.
27:38And I won't tell anyone about this.
27:40I swear.
27:43Hey, hey.
27:45This is going to be our little secret, huh?
27:55Adele.
28:10Adele.
28:11Great, thank you.
28:12I think that's everything if you want to head home for the night.
28:15You sure?
28:16Because I don't mind.
28:18No, we're all good.
28:19Well, in case you wanted to go to the dinner?
28:22What?
28:24With your friend?
28:26Uh, yeah.
28:27No, I can't.
28:27I'm way too swamped.
28:29Right.
28:29Yeah.
28:30You've taken on a lot.
28:31I get it.
28:32I do the same thing sometimes, actually.
28:38What does that mean?
28:43Well, I used to run track in high school.
28:47400-yard dash.
28:48That was my, uh, my event.
28:51But after my mom died, I, I kind of threw myself into it.
28:56I was doing it before school and on the weekends.
29:00I don't know.
29:01Maybe I thought that if I pushed myself hard enough, I could, I could, like, outrun the grief.
29:06And I know that sounds like Barbie Hallmark crap, but, yeah, it's pretty much what I was doing.
29:12And I'm assuming that didn't work out for you?
29:15You would be correct.
29:16Yeah, I tore my ACL and ended my running career.
29:22I'm sorry.
29:23It's okay.
29:24It's, well, no, actually, it sucked.
29:27But I did, I learned some things about myself.
29:31I figured some things out.
29:33Uh-huh.
29:35And so what, do you think I'm pushing myself too hard, just like you did in high school?
29:44And so does Coulter, and so does Randy.
29:46I didn't mean to overstep.
29:47And I get it, and I appreciate that, but this is how I handle things.
29:52Okay?
29:53Someone's got to keep working.
29:55My mom, my sister, they're feelers.
29:57They feel everything all the time, and it hinders them from getting things done.
30:02I'm like my dad, you know?
30:04I'm a doer.
30:07When he got sick, I was the one that got the groceries, and I was the one that made sure
30:10the bills were paid.
30:11And I sat by his bedside and gave him his shots when he couldn't do it himself anymore.
30:15Like, we had to keep going.
30:19That's me.
