00:04You barely touched your breakfast.
00:07I'm not hungry, thanks.
00:09I heard from your grandmother again last night.
00:13Still having a blast in Chicago with the girl group?
00:15There were probably some sour notes mixed up in the sweet music that they're making.
00:22Well, that's the thing with revisiting the past.
00:25Yeah, there are moments that leave blessings.
00:30And scars.
00:32Martin, I know you've been anxious, not sleeping.
00:37Let's try to keep a level head.
00:39I know what I saw.
00:41I thought my past was dead and gone.
00:45He's here, and he's not letting go.
00:52I should take a picture of this.
00:55With me doing research.
00:58If you could lock in like this when we play chess, you might even beat me someday.
01:04Isn't it a little early for trash talking?
01:07Good way to start off the day.
01:09Mental acuity.
01:10Okay.
01:11It's like chess, but with words.
01:13Now, what you do, journalism, it's like trash talk, not taking sides, all dressed up in its Sunday best, as
01:23granddad would say.
01:25Is that what you've been learning from your granddad?
01:27It's got to be hard, staying objective, because everybody has their own viewpoint, and everybody wants their story told the
01:35way they want it told.
01:36100%.
01:38What are we working on now?
01:40I am doing a profile on a police detective.
01:44The editor tossed you a puff piece.
01:47His mistake.
01:48And now it's your chance to prove who you are.
01:51Yeah, I just hope my piece lives up to the hype.
01:54Let's hear it.
01:57Really?
02:00Okay, well, don't repeat any of this.
02:05Cops lead interesting lives, have stories they keep close to the vest, things they've never shared with anyone but each
02:13other.
02:14Like family does.
02:15Exactly.
02:16So I wanted to know more about my subject, so I did some digging, asking questions, and the more that
02:21I keep digging, the higher the body count.
02:24No, slow down.
02:25It's not that deep.
02:26Yet.
02:26But I am hearing rumblings that the only person that our cop may be protecting and serving is himself.
02:39You're kidding me, right?
02:41I asked you for one favor.
02:45No.
02:46Now I know who can't be trusted with high-value information.
02:51Good idea.
02:53I ain't got heated.
02:55Boy Scout got a temper.
02:57Don't worry about it.
02:59Following up on that whack job, loony Leslie.
03:02Look, don't you have some cases to solve?
03:04In other words, mind my business.
03:06That's exactly right.
03:08Yeah.
03:09That's the Jacob I've been waiting to see.
03:11Got that dog in you.
03:13You need it if you're gonna make some stuff happen.
03:16Get it done.
03:19And what kind of stuff you ever done?
03:22I thought so.
03:24You're nothing but a whole lot of talk.
03:26You're full of it, man.
03:53I thought so much.
03:57Here we go.
04:02I am just too full of love, light, and happiness to talk about Persis.
04:06We need to get someone to look at these documents.
04:09Yes, I have seen the papers and they look very important.
04:11Now, can we please talk about me?
04:14Fine.
04:16You know, there's a thin line between brave and crazy.
04:20That's where I do my best work.
04:22You and Madison just met, like, what, five minutes ago?
04:25And you've already introduced her to the entire family?
04:28I guess some things are just meant to be.
04:30I could never.
04:32Your lack of impulse control staggers me.
04:35You weren't scared?
04:37Are you kidding me? I was terrified.
04:40But sometimes you just have to take that leap.
04:43So I grabbed Madison's hand, we looked into each other's eyes, and I did it.
04:49I told everyone I loved her.
04:51Oh my God.
04:52And they loved her back?
04:53Especially Granddad.
04:55How'd you know? He's crazy about her.
04:57Of course he is.
04:59You're following the family tradition.
05:01You mean the tradition where you either become a doctor or lawyer or get to work marrying one?
05:05Yeah, that is not this.
05:07Maybe it should be.
05:10There is nothing that would make me happier than having a lawyer in my pocket right now.
05:14And you have a particular, very interested lawyer that you could have in other places to say the word.
05:21That was comedy gold.
05:22Come on, why aren't you laughing?
05:23In case you're interested.
05:27We're being sued for copyright infringement.
05:33They think I stole that idea?
05:35That purse is mine.
05:37It's all mine.
05:40You know, babe, I wonder if there's a band of artisans that craft bespoke canes and walking sticks.
05:45You know?
05:46You know, they can probably find a car where they can whip up a few of these in different kinds
05:50of woods with gold and silver accents.
05:52You know, they can probably carve depictions of my courtroom victories.
05:56Haley?
05:58What's wrong?
06:01Communication in a marriage is essential to a couple's well-being.
06:04Don't you agree?
06:05Yeah, don't we tell each other everything?
06:08I thought so.
06:10And I know you must be scared, but we're a couple, Bill.
06:15When were you going to tell me?
06:16Tell you what?
06:18Your health.
06:19What happened?
06:20Did the doctor give you a bad prognosis?
06:21Because whatever news you are keeping from me, I need to know so we can fight this together.
06:26Wait, hold on.
06:26Wait.
06:27As far as I know, residual weakness in my arm and leg is all that I have.
06:31Okay?
06:32What do you know that I don't?
06:34The insurance company called.
06:37Your agent wanted to verify information on the policy you took out yesterday.
06:41Look, Bill, what is going on?
06:48If you're leaving me, you have to tell me now.
06:51Okay, baby.
06:51But please, don't leave me.
06:53I'm not going anywhere.
06:55Then why are you buying insurance and so much of it?
06:58Okay, look, come here.
06:59Come here.
06:59Listen.
07:00Look.
07:03It's not a big deal, all right?
07:06It's not a sign that it's the end of the world.
07:08It's what couples do.
07:09It's a whole life insurance policy.
07:11Worth $10 million with me as sole beneficiary?
07:15I thought you'd be happy.
07:16If I had the choice between you and money, you are worth more to me than gold, Bill.
07:21Okay, and I love you twice as much, baby, okay?
07:25But if anything were to happen, God forbid, I need to know that you were taken care of.
07:29One lump sum payout for you and our little one.
07:32And that's money you wouldn't have to share with anyone for any reason.
07:36I only care about you.
07:39Promise me that I won't have to worry about insurance or payouts anytime soon.
07:45You're never getting rid of me, Hayley Hamilton, all right?
07:48I'll be giving the toast at our son's college graduation.
07:52But what if our daughter decides she wants to travel the world instead?
07:56Okay, I hope she does.
07:58You hear that, baby Hamilton?
08:00Hamilton, no matter what role you choose, we expect greatness from our children.
08:05So whatever you do, you do it with excellence.
08:08And goodness and mercy.
08:10That's right.
08:12Love you, baby.
08:13Love you, too.
08:15Our first lawsuit, and we haven't even launched?
08:18I don't understand what they're basing this on.
08:20They saw one purse in one fashion show, and now they're saying we copied theirs?
08:24I created that brilliant little bag.
08:26From first idea, to sketch, to design, I worked with a dozen of ethically sourced textile companies.
08:33Been with you every step of the way.
08:35If anything, they saw the buzz that our purse started, and they're trying to back-engineer their way into a
08:41lawsuit.
08:41If anything, they're trying to kill off the competition to show off their half-assed imitations.
08:47Great theory.
08:49Where's the proof?
08:51What do you think their next move is?
08:52Well, a judge can file an injunction to stop production.
08:57We'd be dead in the water.
08:59Is this how it's gonna be forever?
09:01Lawsuit after lawsuit, corporations afraid our upstart is going to squander their money?
09:09In a way, it's a compliment, but we're just not ready for this.
09:13What are we gonna do?
09:14Find a way to squash this before it sees the light of day?
09:17It's like we're the new kids on the block.
09:20We need to send a message and squash the opposition.
09:24I like it.
09:26That way, people will know not to mess with us.
09:29We're new, but we're ready for a fight.
09:33If he's becoming a problem, we need to deal with him.
09:37Then, then you believe me.
09:39Seriously, Granddad, I thought I was starting to lose my mind.
09:43But if you think it's possible, then...
09:46I think that between these episodes you've been having,
09:50and the fact that you think this busboy has been gaslighting you,
09:55we must do something to allay your concerns.
09:58What can we do?
09:58After I confronted him, he just blew me off like it was nothing.
10:04But it was the way he did it.
10:06Unnerved you.
10:07And you think it was intentional.
10:10Yeah, I do.
10:12But that's not enough reason to get him fired.
10:15No.
10:16Nor do I intend to take it to that extreme.
10:20I could have a talk with the manager
10:22and suggest that he reassign the young man to the kitchen or pool area.
10:29Out of sight and off of your mind.
10:32Yeah, that could work.
10:34But we can't antagonize this guy.
10:37We need to be willing to take that risk.
10:40And we don't know who this man is.
10:43Or much less whether he had anything to do with that awful night.
10:49It's possible that you misheard him.
10:51But if this busboy said those words to you,
10:57the same words that you heard two years ago and in your nightmares,
11:02then we need to find out what game he's playing.
11:05How?
11:07We'll just ask him.
11:13You know this is stalking.
11:15You're lucky, because if you weren't family...
11:17Stop avoiding my calls.
11:19Then I wouldn't have to track you down.
11:20I'm doing my job, Kat.
11:21And part of that job is keeping me updated on our case.
11:26It's my case.
11:29Let's be honest.
11:30If I wouldn't have gotten that napkin with Leslie's DNA on it,
11:34you wouldn't even have a case.
11:35And if the results match the DNA on the motorcycle helmet,
11:40we can push the district attorney closer to filing charges.
11:46What, you want a thank you card?
11:47When do we get the results of the test?
11:50Do we need to talk to somebody to rush it?
11:53Bureaucracy takes time.
11:55How much time?
11:56How the hell am I supposed to know?
11:57It's above my pay grade.
11:59Well, just make sure I'm the first person call when you find anything out.
12:02And I'm sure you'll make yourself unavoidable until then.
12:05I'm glad you know me so well.
12:07And if you don't find me, I'll find you.
12:09I'm sure you will.
12:13Oh.
12:15Good morning, cousin.
12:17Good morning, cuz.
12:19You wouldn't be giving my husband hell now, would you?
12:22Now, what is family for?
12:25Adios.
12:32Do I have to apologize for my cousin's behavior?
12:35Nope.
12:36Don't tell Kat, but I should really thank her
12:37for being a better partner than the one I actually have.
12:41What do you know about this fluff piece from the Washington record?
12:45That is mandatory.
12:47Public affairs says it's good to humanize the department.
12:50Guy's been making implications about my conduct.
12:53To who?
12:54Just me, as far as I know.
12:55But if those allegations go public,
12:58it could compromise my retirement plans.
13:01And everything and everybody around me goes boom.
13:06Yeah, well, it makes no sense.
13:08I mean, why would he even go there?
13:10Something or somebody had to tip him off.
13:14Gotta wonder if the husband's in the mix.
13:19You'd think being married to the congressman,
13:21the guy would tread lightly.
13:23Well, maybe we're jumping the gun.
13:24I mean, how much of this is Smith snooping?
13:27And how much does he really know?
13:31Based on my initial research,
13:33it seems my subject is taking payoffs.
13:35I've been going through his financial transactions,
13:37and everything looks normal until early April,
13:40when there's a payment for $5,000
13:43from an unspecified source, cash.
13:48Cash?
13:49Isn't he a detective?
13:51Who's throwing five bans on him for something legal?
13:54I know, right?
13:55And then, a year and a half ago, Malone buys a house.
14:00Well, homeownership is legit.
14:02In the Caribbean.
14:04Something is off.
14:07But, like,
14:08if you were to play devil's advocate,
14:11what if this guy's good at investments and savings?
14:13No, he also has a nice-sized boat.
14:16You are a smart kid.
14:18Put this in your simulation generator brain of yours.
14:20Give me one scenario
14:21where a cop goes from just getting by
14:23to a millionaire in less than two years.
14:26That makes sense.
14:28Go ahead.
14:29I'll wait.
14:31Politely questioning this guy
14:33won't make him change his story.
14:35But it could uncover something we haven't considered.
14:39Like what?
14:40Grandad, I know what I heard that busboy say to me.
14:44But when I talked to him,
14:46he had me second-guessing myself.
14:48Well, if that's all there was to it,
14:50then I'd be inclined to
14:53think he meant no harm.
14:57But
14:58you mentioned a smile,
15:00a sneer.
15:02That tells me there's something more underhanded at play.
15:06Which is why confronting him is useless.
15:10He'll play the same game.
15:11Act like he did or said nothing out of line.
15:15Which is no good for us.
15:17And doing it here?
15:19In public is best.
15:21Martin,
15:22whether he is the
15:23man you think he is,
15:26or
15:26just some troublemaker
15:28who enjoys
15:29stirring the pot with a prominent congressman,
15:33we need to put a stop to it
15:35immediately.
15:37If you have a minute.
15:39Yes, sir.
15:40Can I get something for you?
15:41Let's see what color is your money.
15:43Get him the hell out of here.
15:52I don't understand what's happened.
15:55I used to be so carefree.
15:58Before we were married?
16:00I guess this is my fault.
16:01Must be.
16:03You put this ring on my finger
16:04and now I'm always looking over my shoulder
16:06waiting for the next disaster on the horizon.
16:09We've had our share of groin pain, sure.
16:12That's your euphemism?
16:14But it's expected in a blended family, baby.
16:18Watching you fight your way back from the stroke
16:20has forced me to be in the same room
16:22at the same time
16:23with all the other women in your life.
16:25Yeah, I know.
16:27It hasn't been easy for you.
16:28I'm sorry.
16:29I never expected a bed of roses,
16:31but
16:32what's life going to be like for our baby?
16:35Born into a family
16:36that doesn't want any part of her?
16:38Look,
16:39the people that matter
16:41are already in this room, okay?
16:43And he'll be blessed
16:44because he'll be ours.
16:46What?
16:47And between the two of us,
16:48we have enough love
16:49to carry that child
16:50through 12 lifetimes.
16:57Who is it?
16:58It's Chelsea.
17:00Oh!
17:01Katie?
17:02Oh, hey!
17:03Here's my brilliant daughter.
17:05How you doing, Dad?
17:06Hi, Haley.
17:07Yeah, I'll be better
17:08when people stop asking.
17:09You know me.
17:10Sure do.
17:12Just following Dr. Montgomery's orders,
17:14waiting for the green light
17:15to go back to work.
17:16Oh,
17:17and I'm supposed to pretend
17:18like you haven't been over here
17:19searching through cases?
17:21What can I say?
17:22I'm a creature of habit.
17:23So what brings you by?
17:24Not complaining,
17:25so you know.
17:26Well,
17:27I was hoping for some free legal advice,
17:30if you have time.
17:30Come on.
17:31I've got nothing but time
17:32for you, Chelsea.
17:36Okay.
17:38This is interesting.
17:40What is it?
17:42Well,
17:43it seems like
17:44Moe Pizzicato
17:45is claiming
17:46trademark and patent infringement.
17:48They served Chelsea Cald
17:49with a cease and desist.
17:50I mean,
17:51they're trying to shut down
17:51my production.
17:53I carried that little purse
17:54on the runway.
17:55It was just a prototype.
17:56Okay, yeah.
17:57Well,
17:58are you familiar
17:58with any of their products?
18:00Not enough to copy a design.
18:02Look,
18:02I would never intentionally
18:04copy any of their stuff.
18:05That purse
18:06is purely my creation alone.
18:08Yeah.
18:08It seems like
18:09they mean business.
18:10What am I going to do,
18:11Dad?
18:11I mean,
18:12we don't have cash like this
18:13to fight this
18:14and these are
18:15the big guys
18:16and I'm just a small startup.
18:18I mean,
18:19can they actually shut me down?
18:21I have never needed a lawyer
18:22more than I do right now.
18:24Oh,
18:24I'm loving the way
18:25this sounds so far.
18:26If I hire a private lab
18:29to run a DNA test,
18:31would that evidence
18:32be admissible in court?
18:35Okay,
18:36interesting conundrum.
18:37Short answer,
18:39it depends on the circumstances.
18:40Tell me what's up.
18:41The police lab
18:42has a backlog.
18:43It's like
18:44a gazillion months behind.
18:47The evidence
18:47that could put Leslie
18:48behind bars
18:49is just sitting on a shelf
18:50somewhere collecting dust.
18:52And you have a side solution?
18:54My parents
18:55have a lot of connections
18:57and labs across the city,
18:59across the country.
19:00And you want to circumvent
19:01the correct channels
19:02and do it fast.
19:03You make it sound
19:04like it's a bad thing.
19:05Because you'd be
19:06in clear violation
19:07of the chain of custody,
19:08rendering your very expensive results
19:11inadmissible in court.
19:12Okay,
19:12well,
19:13what am I supposed to do?
19:14Wait,
19:15like everybody else.
19:17Doesn't it drive you crazy?
19:18If it's any consolation,
19:20someone I like
19:21and admire very much
19:23is teaching me
19:24all about anticipation.
19:25and how sometimes
19:27when something
19:27is important enough,
19:29it's worth the wait.
19:40whole thing's ground to a halt
19:42till I get the DNA results
19:43from the lab.
19:44Well,
19:44how long could that take?
19:45With all the cases
19:46piling up,
19:46it could be months.
19:48Months?
19:49Ah,
19:49that's gotta be so frustrating.
19:51Sometimes I feel like
19:52I'm treading water,
19:54especially with situations
19:55like this one,
19:56when there's a high probability
19:57that we know exactly
19:58who the culprit is.
19:59I just want to get her
20:00off the streets.
20:02Maybe you'll have to wait
20:03till Leslie messes up again.
20:04Which leaves unsuspecting,
20:06innocent people in danger.
20:07I'm supposed to be
20:08protecting our citizens,
20:09but with all the hoops
20:10I have to jump through,
20:11I don't know if I'm making
20:11a difference at all.
20:12Of course you are, baby.
20:15It's just another bad day.
20:17Yeah, I guess.
20:19But enough about my frustration.
20:20How's my wife?
20:22Well, there's a problem
20:23I'm having.
20:24Maybe you can help me.
20:26You know I'd love to, baby.
20:28We're in the middle
20:29of a restaurant.
20:29Stop.
20:30I'm talking about June.
20:32Right, right, right, June.
20:34Oh my God.
20:34How's she doing?
20:35Everything all right?
20:37Physically, yes.
20:38She seems well.
20:40But this cleanup crew
20:42rolled through her encampment,
20:43took everybody's things,
20:45and made all the unhoused
20:46vacate the underpass.
20:47I know she's not
20:48taking that well.
20:49I mean, would you?
20:51If someone came in
20:51and took away
20:52everything you cherished
20:53like it was nothing?
20:55And I've been trying
20:56to find out who's responsible,
20:57but I keep running
20:58into brick walls.
21:01Well, you know,
21:01I wish I could help,
21:02but the police department
21:03isn't involved
21:04in non-governmental sweeps.
21:07Do you know
21:07who I can contact
21:08about this?
21:09Look, I'll make some calls
21:10and see what I can find.
21:11But don't get June's hopes up.
21:13Usually when homeless people's
21:15things get confiscated,
21:16it ends up trashed.
21:20Your friend isn't looking
21:21too well.
21:23He's fine.
21:24I hope you're right.
21:25Looks like he's seen a ghost.
21:27Well, you seemed familiar.
21:31I've got that kind of face.
21:33Kenner,
21:35you've never seen us before?
21:39That's hard to say
21:40what so many of your people
21:41looking like.
21:42My people?
21:44Your family.
21:45You've got a real big family
21:47is all I mean.
21:48I see, yes.
21:50So you've never seen us
21:51outside of this country club?
21:53Oh, I can't travel
21:55in your circles,
21:56Mr. Dupree.
21:57Black royalty?
21:58Nah.
21:59That's rarefied air.
22:01Can't touch that.
22:03Is there anything else?
22:04Oh, that'll be all.
22:11That's him.
22:13Yep.
22:15That's him.
22:21You sure I can't
22:22pour you a glass, Chelsea?
22:23No, I'm good, Dad.
22:24Thanks.
22:24Okay.
22:25Well,
22:26I am glad
22:27that you brought this to me.
22:29You're the best lawyer in town.
22:30I won't argue with you there.
22:32But, you know,
22:34things haven't been
22:35too easy with us, sweetheart.
22:36You know,
22:37we kind of lost our way.
22:39I made choices
22:40you didn't agree with.
22:42That's lawyer talk for
22:43I left your mom for Haley
22:45and blindsided Naomi and me.
22:47Okay, Chelsea.
22:49Insulting Haley
22:50is not gonna...
22:50Bill, she wasn't insulting me.
22:51She was insulting you.
22:54I stand corrected.
22:56Maybe I shouldn't have come
22:57if you could recommend
22:58someone else.
22:59No, no, no.
23:00Please don't leave.
23:00No one will do
23:02a better job for you
23:02than your father
23:03and I'd hate to see
23:05you and Kat ripped off
23:06just because you
23:07can't stand me.
23:08Yeah, losing money
23:09over you?
23:10Not my vibe.
23:12If you'd like
23:13me to leave.
23:17No.
23:19Damn, I hate this.
23:20Haley, look.
23:21I know that my sister
23:22already told you this
23:24but I really appreciate
23:25you getting Dad
23:25to the hospital.
23:26And I appreciate you
23:27sticking by his side
23:28through his stroke.
23:29Now, this is your house.
23:30I can't tell you
23:31where you can be
23:32or what you can hear.
23:34And Dad,
23:36you've done some things
23:37that I don't like
23:38but you're still my dad.
23:40Yeah, well,
23:41sometimes I'm not
23:42a very good one, I guess.
23:43Look, I should have been
23:45at the fashion show
23:46where you premiered
23:46your purse collection.
23:48I should be following
23:49everything you do
23:49on social media.
23:50You never get any work done.
23:51Yeah, well,
23:52it'll be worth it
23:53if we could get back
23:54to where you're not
23:55just calling me
23:56because you needed something.
23:57where I could
23:59just be there for you
24:01without you even asking.
24:02And not just in the
24:03big moments
24:04but the ordinary ones too.
24:06Would that be cool?
24:08Yeah.
24:09Now,
24:10back to this
24:12pesky legal matter.
24:15Look,
24:17this,
24:18this is nothing more
24:19than a preemptive strike
24:20by a competitor
24:21who wants to destroy you
24:22before you even get started.
24:23This guy knows
24:25that you've got
24:26connections in the industry,
24:27your mother's a major name,
24:28he just wants to squash you,
24:29that's all.
24:29And that's why
24:30I came to you.
24:31I was wondering about that.
24:33Sorry,
24:33I'm just saying,
24:35Chelsea could have
24:35went to her sister for this.
24:37Naomi is a
24:38very capable attorney.
24:40Yeah, well,
24:40maybe Chelsea was just
24:41emotional because
24:42of my recent brush
24:43with death.
24:44That's not it.
24:45Well,
24:46not all of it.
24:49Y'all are really
24:49going to make me say it.
24:51Say what?
24:52The thing.
24:55Naomi is the one
24:56that you go to
24:57for a moral victory
24:58on the high ground.
25:00When you want
25:01something done surgically
25:02and slightly sinister,
25:05and when you might
25:06get your hands dirty,
25:08better call Bill.
25:11Smart girls.
25:12Raised them right.
25:14If somebody told me
25:16a big, important lawyer
25:17would be helping me
25:18track down my belongings,
25:20I studied law
25:21because I enjoy
25:22helping people.
25:24You're the good one.
25:25Everybody else
25:26is doing it
25:26for the money.
25:27There's all kinds of us.
25:29I wish I'd had you
25:30with me when they
25:31steamrolled through
25:32and made us scatter.
25:34Took our things.
25:36That wouldn't happen
25:37if you let me help you
25:39find stable housing, June.
25:43Now, I know you told me
25:44not to get my hopes up,
25:47but you've got something
25:48to tell me, don't you?
25:50June, I wish I had
25:52better news for you,
25:53but we still don't have
25:55any real answers.
25:58I see.
25:58But I want you to know
26:01that I have Jacob
26:02working on it, okay?
26:04People looking out for me.
26:07That's something new.
26:09Now, I won't make
26:10any promises,
26:10but if your things
26:12are still out there
26:13and safe,
26:14Jacob will do everything
26:15he can to get them
26:16for you.
26:18Must seem like
26:19a bunch of worthless
26:20junk to most folks,
26:22but...
26:23that picture.
26:27That picture of those kids
26:28means a lot to you.
26:31Something about their faces.
26:33You see a happy child
26:35and you think maybe
26:35life isn't so bad after all.
26:38You can pretend a lot of things
26:40when you've got pictures.
26:42Picture yourself not alone.
26:45Picture yourself laughing.
26:48Surrounded by people
26:49who love you.
26:51Enough pictures in your head
26:52like that and
26:54the world isn't so lonely.
26:58You know?
26:59I think I do.
27:01It's more than
27:02a photograph to me.
27:04It's a whole universe
27:06where I'm happy
27:07and a part of something special.
27:10So you see why
27:11I need that picture, Naomi?
27:14When you've got so little,
27:16the little you've managed
27:18to hold on to
27:18means so much.
27:22Silly as it may seem,
27:23that little snapshot
27:24of those two kids
27:26and
27:28their smiles
27:30is worth the whole world
27:32to me.
27:35Then we'll simply
27:36have to find a way
27:37to get it back to you.
27:39Somehow.
27:44Tomas.
27:45Hang on.
27:45No, Tomas, I mean...
27:48Is this okay?
27:49No, it isn't.
27:51I, um...
27:52I need some air,
27:54like a break or something.
27:56And that's fine?
27:58Yeah, it's my fault.
27:59I don't want to push you ever.
28:02No, you haven't ever.
28:04I just...
28:06I bet you thought
28:07dating the world's
28:08oldest virgin
28:09would win you some prizes,
28:10but all it gives you
28:11was rejection
28:11after rejection and...
28:13You're helping me
28:14be a good role model
28:15to my little brother.
28:17Ramon.
28:18Yes, I remember.
28:19I pay attention
28:20to details about your life.
28:22Good things are worth
28:23waiting for,
28:24and anticipation
28:24just makes the event
28:25more meaningful
28:26when it finally
28:27does happen.
28:29That's the plan.
28:32But if I can ask
28:33a follow-up question...
28:34Yeah, of course.
28:38Is there...
28:38something in particular
28:40you're waiting for?
28:42Oh.
28:47When I was little,
28:48I took diving lessons,
28:50and I would climb up the ladder,
28:53and when it was my turn,
28:54my coach was waiting,
28:56the kids behind me
28:56were waiting.
28:57And patient,
28:58wishing you'd hurry up
28:59and get it over with.
29:00Yeah.
29:01And I don't know why
29:02I was stalling,
29:03but I just knew
29:04I wasn't ready.
29:06Look,
29:08I've seen people
29:09take leaps
29:10and fail.
29:11My parents,
29:12my aunt and uncle,
29:14they gave their hearts
29:15to people
29:15that drained all the water
29:16out of the pool,
29:18and then they were left
29:18in the ruins
29:19of their pain and regret.
29:21I don't want that.
29:24And I certainly
29:25don't want my first time
29:26to be somebody's
29:28afterthought
29:28while they're
29:29on their lunch break
29:30from the office.
29:32You'd never be
29:33anyone's afterthought,
29:35especially not mine.
29:37Good.
29:38Because I require
29:40100% thought,
29:41careful planning.
29:42I want memorable moments,
29:44and I don't think
29:46that's too much to ask.
29:48I'm worth it.
29:50And when I give myself
29:52to a man in that way,
29:53it'll be my choice.
29:56When, where,
29:57and how I want it.
30:00And if that's becoming
30:01a problem for you,
30:02then...
30:03Of course not.
30:04You deserve
30:05nothing but the best.
30:06I'm enjoying the wait.
30:08Hmm.
30:10So,
30:10you think you're the best?
30:12That's interesting.
30:15I should be
30:16going back to work.
30:26Hey.
30:27Hey.
30:30What you got there,
30:31Jacob?
30:32I spoke to a couple people,
30:33called in some favors.
30:34You found June's things?
30:35Tell me.
30:42Hey, June,
30:43does any of that
30:44look familiar to you?
30:45I don't know.
30:47I'm almost afraid
30:48to look too hard.
30:49I know it isn't everything,
30:51but that's all that was left.
30:53And I do thank you
30:55for extending yourself
30:57the way you have.
30:58Still don't understand
30:59why you helped me back
31:01when I was arrested,
31:02but you restored my soul
31:03a little bit.
31:05I still
31:07don't see
31:08what I'm
31:09looking for.
31:10It's okay, June.
31:11Just take your time.
31:12It's so small,
31:13maybe you got lost.
31:16Okay.
31:18Everything's going to be okay.
31:19Yeah.
31:21I'm just glad
31:22for the assistance,
31:23even if the silly thing
31:24isn't here.
31:25Please, God,
31:26let it be here.
31:27I don't need anything else.
31:29Take everything else
31:30away from me.
31:31Take it all.
31:32Just let me.
31:33Just...
31:34Just let me have
31:35this one thing,
31:36please.
31:37Just let me have
31:38this one thing,
31:39please.
31:45Oh, I knew it.
31:49Yes, Lord.
31:51I knew it.
31:53It's here.
31:55Oh, you sweet babies.
32:00I'm so sorry.
32:02I'm sorry.
32:03I'll never leave you again.
32:05I swear on everything.
32:11Jacob,
32:12Naomi,
32:13you don't know.
32:17What do we do now?
32:19Confirm,
32:20but we're both sure
32:21it's him.
32:22the sound of his voice,
32:25the things that he said
32:27all pointed us
32:29in that direction.
32:31But the face,
32:32he didn't look familiar.
32:34But I can feel it
32:36in my gut,
32:36granddad.
32:37And the way the hairs
32:39stand up on the back
32:40of my neck,
32:40how he glowers
32:42when he's pretending
32:43to smile.
32:44All of that is real.
32:46I agree.
32:48But why would he be here?
32:51And why now?
32:53There's no such thing
32:54as coincidence.
32:56He's tracked me down
32:57because he wants something.
32:59We have to figure out
33:01what that is.
33:03Let's get out of here.
33:18Wow.
33:20Look at this.
33:21Two years ago,
33:22my subject deposited that
33:24into his own
33:25checking account.
33:26Five hundred grand?
33:28A cop with
33:29half a million dollars.
33:31Gotta be some explanation.
33:33No,
33:33it's not from a
33:34wire transfer
33:35from an investment.
33:36That is also cash.
33:38That's where the house
33:39and the island
33:39and the boat came from.
33:41Bingo.
33:43Two years ago,
33:44Marcel Malone
33:45hit the lotto.
33:46His life completely changed.
33:48Now,
33:49I just have to figure out
33:50who made that happen.
33:55Chelsea?
33:56You sure you don't
33:57want to get Bill
33:58to pour you
33:58less juice?
34:00Or maybe you'd like
34:01something from the kitchen?
34:02Let's leave the therapy
34:03to Shanice, okay?
34:04What I need
34:05is help on this.
34:07What do I do?
34:08Nothing.
34:09Mo Pizzicato
34:10has an uphill battle
34:11trying to prove infringement.
34:13And you're sure
34:14we can win?
34:15Chelsea,
34:16come on,
34:17this is what I do.
34:18Okay?
34:18Count on me.
34:19I'll handle everything.
34:21Thank you so much.
34:23I just got off the phone
34:24with Public Affairs.
34:25They're taking
34:26this precinct
34:26off the publicity tour,
34:28so no more interviews
34:29for the foreseeable future.
34:31That doesn't solve
34:32the problem
34:32we got right now.
34:34Smith has no idea
34:35that if they keep
34:35chasing these leads,
34:36they're going to
34:37take them right back home.
34:39somebody needs to get
34:40that message through
34:41to them
34:41and fast.
34:42Yeah,
34:43let the dam stay strong
34:44for two years,
34:45so the point
34:46would be made
34:47to our nosy reporter
34:48that it's in
34:49everybody's interest
34:50that it doesn't burst.
34:54Hey, it's me.
34:56I need to talk to you.
34:58Now.
34:59Now.
35:01I'm on my way.
35:05This was never
35:07supposed to happen.
35:09I want assurances
35:12the problem
35:13is being solved.
35:15Now.
35:17This is too important.
35:20Do not disappoint me.
35:33Do not disappoint you.
36:01Do not disappoint you.
