1
00:00:24,191 --> 00:00:25,192
- Hey, good morning.
- Good morning.

2
00:00:25,275 --> 00:00:26,902
- How you doing? You good?
- Yeah.

3
00:00:26,985 --> 00:00:29,196
Morning. What can I get you?

4
00:00:29,780 --> 00:00:31,698
Miss? Are you okay?

5
00:00:34,451 --> 00:00:36,245
Oh, my gosh! Help!

6
00:00:36,328 --> 00:00:37,788
Help! Somebody, please!

7
00:00:56,974 --> 00:00:57,975
Good morning.

8
00:00:58,058 --> 00:01:00,602
Can't believe I worked
on that stupid thing for two weeks.

9
00:01:00,686 --> 00:01:02,562
Paul Cézanne hated
everything he ever painted,

10
00:01:02,646 --> 00:01:04,231
and he's considered one of the greats.

11
00:01:04,314 --> 00:01:05,649
Yeah, after he died.

12
00:01:05,732 --> 00:01:07,943
Well, he worked
on The Large Bathers for seven years.

13
00:01:08,026 --> 00:01:09,611
I don't have years.

14
00:01:10,320 --> 00:01:12,406
I have art school reps coming
to my showcase soon

15
00:01:12,489 --> 00:01:13,740
and I've literally got nothing.

16
00:01:13,824 --> 00:01:15,117
You've got a couple days.

17
00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:16,994
Plus, I really like
what you've done so far.

18
00:01:17,077 --> 00:01:18,662
You're my mom. You're supposed to love it.

19
00:01:18,745 --> 00:01:22,165
That is not true.
That textile thing you did was boring.

20
00:01:22,249 --> 00:01:23,250
And a little derivative.

21
00:01:23,333 --> 00:01:27,170
Okay, uh, why don't you go
and pack your bag for your dad's house?

22
00:01:27,254 --> 00:01:28,755
Okay.

23
00:01:29,590 --> 00:01:31,842
Art isn't like your job, Mom.

24
00:01:31,925 --> 00:01:35,345
I don't just get to look around
and, like, notice things.

25
00:01:35,429 --> 00:01:37,014
It's a little more than that. But okay.

26
00:01:37,097 --> 00:01:39,349
I have to come up
with something completely original,

27
00:01:39,433 --> 00:01:41,602
something so undeniable it stands out.

28
00:01:41,685 --> 00:01:45,188
Because if I don't, then I might not
get another shot at being noticed

29
00:01:45,272 --> 00:01:46,356
or getting a scholarship.

30
00:01:46,440 --> 00:01:49,609
Hey, listen. I lived with an artist
before you came along, remember?

31
00:01:49,693 --> 00:01:52,863
Your dad used to fill up
so many garbage cans

32
00:01:52,946 --> 00:01:55,407
with some really beautiful stuff
that he thought was trash.

33
00:01:55,490 --> 00:01:57,701
You know, the points
where he was the most frustrated

34
00:01:57,784 --> 00:01:59,786
and he was about to give up,

35
00:01:59,870 --> 00:02:02,164
that's usually when he would come up
with something very special.

36
00:02:02,247 --> 00:02:03,623
And you will too.

37
00:02:05,167 --> 00:02:06,376
But you can't give up.

38
00:02:08,337 --> 00:02:09,963
Okay, okay, I got it.

39
00:02:10,047 --> 00:02:15,385
What if your final showcase piece is
the trash can full of your art?

40
00:02:15,469 --> 00:02:16,928
Okey doke. Uh…

41
00:02:17,012 --> 00:02:18,221
I've got an idea.

42
00:02:18,305 --> 00:02:20,432
How about over the next couple of days,
you wanna talk to your sister,

43
00:02:20,515 --> 00:02:22,017
you just run it by me first, okay?

44
00:02:22,100 --> 00:02:23,769
Rosenberg would've called that
a finished piece.

45
00:02:23,852 --> 00:02:24,853
- I know. Have a wonderful day.
- I love you.

46
00:02:24,936 --> 00:02:26,396
I love you too.

47
00:02:27,648 --> 00:02:29,483
No, I'm saying…

48
00:02:29,566 --> 00:02:32,069
…if you wanna judge
my lavender oat milk latte,

49
00:02:32,152 --> 00:02:34,821
- you should at least try it first.
- No, I don't think so.

50
00:02:34,905 --> 00:02:37,824
- Lavender is for soap, not for sipping.
- Oh, my gosh.

51
00:02:38,992 --> 00:02:41,203
You know,
you really didn't have to drive me.

52
00:02:41,286 --> 00:02:42,663
- You were on the way.
- Mmm.

53
00:02:44,706 --> 00:02:46,667
- Thank you.
- You're welcome.

54
00:02:51,672 --> 00:02:52,964
Yeah.

55
00:02:53,048 --> 00:02:56,093
Yeah, I can head right over.
Just, uh, shoot me the address.

56
00:02:58,929 --> 00:03:00,639
Oh. I'm already there.

57
00:03:01,890 --> 00:03:04,559
Thank you. Okay. Excuse me.

58
00:03:06,228 --> 00:03:08,897
Oh. What's going on here?
Bring your girlfriend to work day?

59
00:03:08,980 --> 00:03:12,192
Lucia's one of the managers here.
She handles all their VIP guests.

60
00:03:12,275 --> 00:03:14,444
- She want to comp me a room sometime?
- I'll ask her.

61
00:03:14,528 --> 00:03:15,529
Really?

62
00:03:16,655 --> 00:03:18,407
Everyone's on fire this morning.

63
00:03:18,490 --> 00:03:20,659
Major Crimes got the call
because she's high profile.

64
00:03:21,243 --> 00:03:22,452
- She is? Who is she?
- Mm-hmm.

65
00:03:23,829 --> 00:03:26,498
Vera Hensley
from The Big Fix with Vera and Frank.

66
00:03:26,581 --> 00:03:28,834
- I've never seen it.
- Yeah, it's a husband and wife team.

67
00:03:28,917 --> 00:03:31,211
They repair houses, do renovations,
things like that.

68
00:03:31,294 --> 00:03:33,046
Well, I've got three kids.

69
00:03:33,130 --> 00:03:35,090
I don't really have time
to build my own deck.

70
00:03:35,173 --> 00:03:38,051
She's not exactly dressed for a pool day.
What's she doing out here?

71
00:03:38,135 --> 00:03:40,470
I talked to a few hotel guests
who said she was already laying here

72
00:03:40,554 --> 00:03:42,722
- when they came up this morning.
- So, you think she's been here all night?

73
00:03:42,806 --> 00:03:45,058
Maybe she stumbled out here drunk,
fell in the pool and hit her head.

74
00:03:45,142 --> 00:03:46,143
No.

75
00:03:47,144 --> 00:03:48,520
Look at her hair, it's styled.

76
00:03:50,939 --> 00:03:51,940
I mean, it's frizzy.

77
00:03:52,023 --> 00:03:54,860
I agree it got wet, but you ever seen
a woman come out of the water?

78
00:03:55,610 --> 00:03:57,279
It'd be all plastered
to the side of her face,

79
00:03:57,362 --> 00:03:59,114
not round and bouncy.

80
00:03:59,197 --> 00:04:01,867
- It didn't rain last night.
- So how'd she get wet?

81
00:04:05,912 --> 00:04:06,913
Sprinklers.

82
00:04:08,623 --> 00:04:10,750
Yeah, they probably run at night
when the guests aren't around.

83
00:04:10,834 --> 00:04:13,378
Which means there was no one here
to witness her attack.

84
00:04:13,462 --> 00:04:15,046
That's assuming that it happened here.

85
00:04:15,130 --> 00:04:17,257
Well, if she was killed somewhere else,
we'd better find out where

86
00:04:17,340 --> 00:04:19,342
before Vera's killer has time
to clean it up.

87
00:04:21,011 --> 00:04:23,680
- Vera Hensley?
- Yes, anything you can tell us.

88
00:04:23,764 --> 00:04:25,307
Her room number, when she checked in.

89
00:04:25,390 --> 00:04:26,975
Oh, she's not staying here,

90
00:04:27,058 --> 00:04:32,355
but her husband, Frank Hensley,
is a DNA guest.

91
00:04:32,439 --> 00:04:34,983
Do not announce. Very high profile.

92
00:04:35,609 --> 00:04:37,778
Only essential staff have access.

93
00:04:37,861 --> 00:04:41,239
He's been staying in the penthouse,
checked in a few days ago.

94
00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:44,242
Okay, give us
one of those master key cards.

95
00:04:44,326 --> 00:04:45,827
We're gonna go snoop around his room.

96
00:04:45,911 --> 00:04:48,038
We'll knock. Can you access cameras?

97
00:04:48,663 --> 00:04:53,376
Uh, we only have cameras by the pool,
the elevator, and the lobby, but I… Huh.

98
00:04:53,460 --> 00:04:55,212
That's weird.

99
00:04:55,295 --> 00:04:57,506
These cameras were, uh, turned off
last night.

100
00:04:57,589 --> 00:04:59,216
Off or erased?

101
00:04:59,299 --> 00:05:01,510
I wouldn't know. I'm guest relations.

102
00:05:01,593 --> 00:05:03,553
I'll put our IT team on it.

103
00:05:03,637 --> 00:05:05,347
Let's go talk to your VIP.

104
00:05:07,432 --> 00:05:08,892
Vera and I were never apart.

105
00:05:08,975 --> 00:05:11,019
We lived together. We worked together.

106
00:05:12,395 --> 00:05:13,814
Our show is our life.

107
00:05:14,648 --> 00:05:16,608
Is it true you guys met
at a hardware store?

108
00:05:16,691 --> 00:05:17,984
You watch the show?

109
00:05:18,068 --> 00:05:21,029
My girlfriend and I are moving
into a place that needs a bit of work

110
00:05:21,112 --> 00:05:23,031
and, uh, The Big Fix taught me a lot.

111
00:05:23,114 --> 00:05:26,993
Our first place together was
a two-bedroom house off Van Ness.

112
00:05:27,077 --> 00:05:29,621
Crooked floors, no storage, no light.

113
00:05:29,704 --> 00:05:33,834
Every project started as a problem
that Vera and I couldn't afford to ignore.

114
00:05:33,917 --> 00:05:35,794
Can I ask what time
the two of you went to bed last night?

115
00:05:35,877 --> 00:05:38,296
Vera wasn't staying here.

116
00:05:38,380 --> 00:05:40,298
So this isn't her bra?

117
00:05:45,804 --> 00:05:47,931
I invited some friends over last night.

118
00:05:48,014 --> 00:05:50,058
I guess it got kind of wild.

119
00:05:50,141 --> 00:05:52,894
Mr. Hensley, if Vera wasn't here
with you last night,

120
00:05:52,978 --> 00:05:54,271
why was she at the hotel?

121
00:05:54,354 --> 00:05:55,480
I wish I knew.

122
00:05:55,564 --> 00:05:57,858
Okay, so where's the lamp?

123
00:05:58,817 --> 00:06:03,363
And the brass candle holders,
and the stone bookend?

124
00:06:05,282 --> 00:06:06,658
I don't know.

125
00:06:08,910 --> 00:06:13,164
So, his wife dies in the same hotel
he's staying in and he never saw her?

126
00:06:13,248 --> 00:06:14,249
Please.

127
00:06:14,332 --> 00:06:16,167
Sounds like Vera found out
that Frank was here partying,

128
00:06:16,251 --> 00:06:17,544
confronted him and things got out of hand.

129
00:06:17,627 --> 00:06:19,671
- Okay, so why aren't we bringing him in?
- Cause we need evidence.

130
00:06:19,754 --> 00:06:21,715
Right now, we can't even prove
that Vera came up to this floor.

131
00:06:21,798 --> 00:06:23,133
Whoa, whoa, whoa.

132
00:06:24,467 --> 00:06:26,386
Uh, that'll do it.

133
00:06:29,556 --> 00:06:31,600
Yeah, they're taking me in right now.

134
00:06:34,477 --> 00:06:37,272
- Where'd you park?
- On the street like a sane person.

135
00:06:37,355 --> 00:06:38,648
You think I'm paying hotel prices?

136
00:06:38,732 --> 00:06:40,317
- We reimburse.
- You do?

137
00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:42,235
Yeah, you save the receipt,
fill out an expense report…

138
00:06:42,319 --> 00:06:44,404
Oh, God. No, forget it. You lost me. Bye.

139
00:06:48,825 --> 00:06:51,411
- I said it's over. It's done.
- It's not too late.

140
00:06:51,494 --> 00:06:53,288
We can be together. No cities.

141
00:06:53,371 --> 00:06:55,832
Just seasons. And frosty trees.

142
00:06:57,167 --> 00:06:58,168
W-Why?

143
00:07:06,343 --> 00:07:09,554
I know. It's terrible.
Try not to worry too much.

144
00:07:09,638 --> 00:07:10,764
I love you. Bye.

145
00:07:15,477 --> 00:07:17,604
- Everything okay?
- Hmm? Yeah.

146
00:07:17,687 --> 00:07:19,230
Lucia's just having a hard time.

147
00:07:19,314 --> 00:07:22,859
- With what?
- Uh, with the murder at her hotel.

148
00:07:22,942 --> 00:07:24,903
Most people don't show up to work
expecting to see a dead body.

149
00:07:24,986 --> 00:07:25,987
Right.

150
00:07:26,071 --> 00:07:29,407
Just last week, I was watching
Vera and Frank put together a banquette

151
00:07:29,491 --> 00:07:31,451
and now we're trying to find out
if he killed her.

152
00:07:33,953 --> 00:07:34,954
This is new.

153
00:07:35,455 --> 00:07:36,706
Oh.

154
00:07:36,790 --> 00:07:38,541
Yeah, it's a gift from Lucia.

155
00:07:38,625 --> 00:07:40,460
It's, uh, gypsum sand.

156
00:07:41,211 --> 00:07:42,504
She said it's rare.

157
00:07:43,171 --> 00:07:44,381
Like what we have.

158
00:07:47,592 --> 00:07:49,552
She's right. It is rare.

159
00:07:52,263 --> 00:07:53,431
I loved Vera.

160
00:07:53,515 --> 00:07:55,183
The kind of love
where you rent out the penthouse suite

161
00:07:55,266 --> 00:07:57,602
- to hook up with other women, right?
- No.

162
00:07:57,686 --> 00:08:00,438
- So the bra was yours?
- We checked your records, Frank.

163
00:08:00,522 --> 00:08:02,816
This wasn't the first time
you wanted to fly solo, was it?

164
00:08:02,899 --> 00:08:04,567
But you thought
what she didn't know wouldn't hurt her.

165
00:08:04,651 --> 00:08:07,612
Only she did find out about the women,
the lies, the partying.

166
00:08:07,696 --> 00:08:08,780
You went behind her back

167
00:08:08,863 --> 00:08:10,323
while telling the world
that you loved her.

168
00:08:10,407 --> 00:08:13,993
I did. Vera and I were
always honest with each other, okay?

169
00:08:14,077 --> 00:08:15,620
I don't know
what she was doing in that hotel.

170
00:08:15,704 --> 00:08:17,122
I didn't even see her.

171
00:08:17,205 --> 00:08:19,207
Okay, so you're cheating
on your wife in the same hotel…

172
00:08:19,290 --> 00:08:20,875
I heard Lucia works at that hotel.

173
00:08:21,835 --> 00:08:24,003
- Small world.
- Yeah.

174
00:08:25,004 --> 00:08:26,005
I guess.

175
00:08:26,089 --> 00:08:30,885
Being the happy couple that you see on TV
fixing houses, that was our brand, okay?

176
00:08:30,969 --> 00:08:32,679
That wasn't who we were, not always.

177
00:08:32,762 --> 00:08:34,347
Sometimes…

178
00:08:34,431 --> 00:08:36,057
Look, we like to do our own thing.

179
00:08:36,933 --> 00:08:39,436
I mean, as far as I know,
having a good time is not a crime.

180
00:08:39,519 --> 00:08:40,520
No, it is not.

181
00:08:40,603 --> 00:08:41,604
But knocking your wife out

182
00:08:41,688 --> 00:08:43,148
when she walks in on you
with another woman

183
00:08:43,231 --> 00:08:45,692
and then moving her dead body
so you can clean up the evidence,

184
00:08:45,775 --> 00:08:48,069
- that would be a crime.
- My client's said enough.

185
00:08:48,153 --> 00:08:50,238
Call us when you actually have something.

186
00:08:55,994 --> 00:08:58,121
The bloody fingerprint
on the elevator button matches

187
00:08:58,204 --> 00:08:59,539
Vera's blood imprint.

188
00:08:59,622 --> 00:09:01,958
Mmm. So, we know Vera went up
to the penthouse.

189
00:09:02,042 --> 00:09:03,793
That means Frank either wasn't there
at the same time

190
00:09:03,877 --> 00:09:06,212
- or he's lying about not having seen her.
- I checked the hotel records.

191
00:09:06,296 --> 00:09:08,965
Frank and Vera had a joint account
at the Blackwell Hotel.

192
00:09:09,049 --> 00:09:10,341
So if one of them booked a hotel room,

193
00:09:10,425 --> 00:09:13,344
the other would receive a digital key
on their phone automatically.

194
00:09:13,428 --> 00:09:15,972
Then maybe Vera saw
where Frank was and wasn't as happy

195
00:09:16,056 --> 00:09:18,266
about his partying
as he wants us to believe.

196
00:09:18,349 --> 00:09:21,352
Okay, and what about the items
that were missing from the hotel room?

197
00:09:21,436 --> 00:09:24,022
Yes, found them in the hotel dumpster

198
00:09:24,105 --> 00:09:25,899
and pieces on the penthouse floor.

199
00:09:25,982 --> 00:09:28,610
Looks like there was a fight
and someone tried to clean up.

200
00:09:28,693 --> 00:09:31,321
But there was one item
we couldn't find anywhere.

201
00:09:32,489 --> 00:09:34,991
The ME says
Vera's head wound is consistent

202
00:09:35,075 --> 00:09:37,535
with the shape and size of that bookend.

203
00:09:37,619 --> 00:09:40,038
So, we know what the murder weapon was,
but we don't know where it is?

204
00:09:40,121 --> 00:09:41,831
Tell me the hotel cameras
caught something.

205
00:09:41,915 --> 00:09:44,167
CCU is still working on it
but we should know soon.

206
00:09:44,250 --> 00:09:46,127
Did you talk to the people
Frank was partying with?

207
00:09:46,211 --> 00:09:48,838
Yeah, he gave us four names, all friends.

208
00:09:48,922 --> 00:09:52,050
Most of them work for him.
His manager, Aaron Rothman.

209
00:09:53,176 --> 00:09:55,261
One of his producers, Lois Mendel.

210
00:09:55,345 --> 00:09:57,097
His stylist, Talia Cruz.

211
00:09:57,180 --> 00:10:00,016
And last,
his best friend from college, Boyd Hollis.

212
00:10:01,059 --> 00:10:02,477
Do we think they're covering for him?

213
00:10:02,560 --> 00:10:04,687
Well, if they worked for him,
they have financial motive

214
00:10:04,771 --> 00:10:07,565
to keep Vera from going public
about Frank's indiscretions.

215
00:10:07,649 --> 00:10:09,776
Boyd took some photos
at their party last night.

216
00:10:13,029 --> 00:10:14,072
Wait a second.

217
00:10:17,367 --> 00:10:18,743
Who's this guy?

218
00:10:21,121 --> 00:10:22,747
None of Frank's friends mentioned
anyone else

219
00:10:22,831 --> 00:10:24,374
being around last night, did they?

220
00:10:24,457 --> 00:10:25,917
And you've never seen him before?

221
00:10:26,501 --> 00:10:28,253
No. You guys?

222
00:10:29,295 --> 00:10:31,214
Maybe someone at the hotel knows
who he is.

223
00:10:31,297 --> 00:10:33,258
Morgan and I will go back.
We can check with Lucia.

224
00:10:33,341 --> 00:10:34,592
Maybe ask around.

225
00:10:38,221 --> 00:10:39,848
You gonna get that?

226
00:10:39,931 --> 00:10:43,518
Kind of thought it was decorative.

227
00:10:44,185 --> 00:10:45,311
Hello.

228
00:10:45,395 --> 00:10:47,730
Morgan, this is Willa Quinn.

229
00:10:48,648 --> 00:10:49,983
What do you want?

230
00:10:50,066 --> 00:10:53,570
To warn you
about the danger you're headed into.

231
00:10:54,070 --> 00:10:55,697
Believe it or not, I'm not your enemy.

232
00:10:55,780 --> 00:10:59,659
I'm the person that warns you
before the enemy reaches you.

233
00:10:59,742 --> 00:11:02,078
The way it reached Eric Hayworth?

234
00:11:02,162 --> 00:11:04,372
I think we both know
that wasn't a suicide.

235
00:11:04,455 --> 00:11:09,627
There's no way to catch up when the people
that are helping you are helping me too.

236
00:11:09,711 --> 00:11:10,795
Back off, Morgan.

237
00:11:10,879 --> 00:11:13,256
If you wanna threaten me, I think
you should come and do it to my fa…

238
00:11:13,339 --> 00:11:15,175
Did she just hang up on me?

239
00:11:22,599 --> 00:11:25,560
Willa said the people helping you
are helping her too?

240
00:11:25,643 --> 00:11:27,145
Those were her exact words?

241
00:11:27,645 --> 00:11:28,646
Yep.

242
00:11:29,606 --> 00:11:32,025
So, either she's got
someone working for her in the precinct,

243
00:11:32,108 --> 00:11:33,902
or she wants me to think that she does.

244
00:11:33,985 --> 00:11:35,570
What?

245
00:11:37,947 --> 00:11:39,991
Willa was seen leaving
the Beverly Palms Country Club

246
00:11:40,074 --> 00:11:43,119
with Nick Wagner Sr.
Captain Wagner's father.

247
00:11:43,203 --> 00:11:44,287
Wha…

248
00:11:44,370 --> 00:11:46,247
- Do we know why?
- No.

249
00:11:46,331 --> 00:11:48,583
A while back,
the captain flat out asked me

250
00:11:48,666 --> 00:11:51,002
how to get you to let him in
on the Roman investigation.

251
00:11:51,085 --> 00:11:52,670
So I think we need
to consider the possibility

252
00:11:52,754 --> 00:11:55,673
that both Wagners are working with Willa.

253
00:11:57,800 --> 00:11:59,093
Does he know we know this?

254
00:11:59,177 --> 00:12:01,471
Soto asked him about his involvement.
He denies having any.

255
00:12:04,807 --> 00:12:06,559
Thank you for telling me.

256
00:12:10,521 --> 00:12:11,648
Does he look familiar?

257
00:12:11,731 --> 00:12:15,443
Yeah, he's a guest, or was.

258
00:12:15,526 --> 00:12:18,154
- He checked out a few minutes ago. Uh…
- Hmm.

259
00:12:19,322 --> 00:12:21,950
Charles Hale. Yep, that's him.

260
00:12:22,742 --> 00:12:23,743
Got a phone number?

261
00:12:25,161 --> 00:12:27,497
- Uh-huh.
- Thanks.

262
00:12:31,793 --> 00:12:33,670
I'm here for Detective Karadec.

263
00:12:33,753 --> 00:12:35,255
Charles, thanks for coming in.

264
00:12:35,338 --> 00:12:37,382
- Yeah.
- Right this way.

265
00:12:38,883 --> 00:12:41,010
My plane leaves in a few hours.

266
00:12:41,094 --> 00:12:43,012
This won't take long. Please have a seat.

267
00:12:44,472 --> 00:12:45,515
Just a few questions.

268
00:12:45,598 --> 00:12:47,725
It's my understanding you were staying
at the Blackwell Hotel, correct?

269
00:12:47,809 --> 00:12:50,520
Yeah. Is this about Vera Hensley?

270
00:12:50,603 --> 00:12:52,563
- It is. How do you know her husband?
- I don't.

271
00:12:52,647 --> 00:12:54,524
I met him at the hotel bar.

272
00:12:54,607 --> 00:12:55,984
I recognized him from The Big Fix.

273
00:12:56,067 --> 00:12:58,403
- Mmm.
- Figured, what the hell? Say hi.

274
00:12:59,570 --> 00:13:01,656
And he introduced me to all his friends.

275
00:13:01,739 --> 00:13:04,367
- Was Vera with them?
- No.

276
00:13:04,450 --> 00:13:07,370
Did you hear or see anything
that would make you think that Frank

277
00:13:07,453 --> 00:13:10,039
or his friends might wanna hurt Vera
if she were there?

278
00:13:10,123 --> 00:13:12,041
No. But…

279
00:13:13,376 --> 00:13:17,630
there was a guy, 40s, white,
he was on his own.

280
00:13:17,714 --> 00:13:20,508
He was looking for her.
He gave me a bad vibe.

281
00:13:20,591 --> 00:13:24,554
Did you get a good look at this guy?
Enough to give us a description?

282
00:13:30,935 --> 00:13:32,145
Hey.

283
00:13:33,062 --> 00:13:34,188
Hey.

284
00:13:34,981 --> 00:13:37,066
There you are. I was looking for you.

285
00:13:37,150 --> 00:13:40,653
Yeah, I figured we should probably talk.

286
00:13:41,487 --> 00:13:43,656
Which thing would you like to start with?

287
00:13:47,368 --> 00:13:49,746
Are you working
with your father and Willa Quinn?

288
00:13:50,663 --> 00:13:53,416
No. Absolutely not.

289
00:13:55,918 --> 00:13:57,128
I believe you.

290
00:13:57,211 --> 00:13:58,379
Good.

291
00:13:59,505 --> 00:14:02,884
My subpoena to search Willa's office
in New York got shut down,

292
00:14:02,967 --> 00:14:04,093
but I'm not done trying.

293
00:14:04,177 --> 00:14:06,054
Well, I had an idea.

294
00:14:07,055 --> 00:14:10,933
Only I can't do it and you should
certainly not get caught doing it.

295
00:14:17,065 --> 00:14:18,983
Okay, you got it.

296
00:14:20,693 --> 00:14:23,071
We'll circle back
to the other thing later.

297
00:14:23,154 --> 00:14:24,822
I look forward to it.

298
00:14:29,535 --> 00:14:32,538
Sorry, sorry.

299
00:14:33,247 --> 00:14:35,583
- You burned the house down yet?
- Thought about it.

300
00:14:36,542 --> 00:14:39,587
- Can't figure out what you wanna do still?
- I actually have one idea.

301
00:14:40,254 --> 00:14:42,215
But you might not like it.

302
00:14:42,298 --> 00:14:44,050
I don't have to like it.

303
00:14:44,133 --> 00:14:47,470
Well, that box of all Dad's stuff
that you keep in your closet.

304
00:14:48,638 --> 00:14:50,681
- Can I use it?
- For what?

305
00:14:50,765 --> 00:14:53,768
I don't know yet,
but I promise I'll take good care of it.

306
00:14:53,851 --> 00:14:56,354
Ava, listen, I saved
all that stuff for you, okay?

307
00:14:56,437 --> 00:14:58,147
You do whatever you want with it.

308
00:14:58,231 --> 00:15:00,399
- Really?
- Yeah, but that's it.

309
00:15:00,483 --> 00:15:02,610
Don't touch anything else
in my closet, okay?

310
00:15:02,693 --> 00:15:04,237
Gotta go. I'll see you soon.

311
00:15:13,204 --> 00:15:14,539
You think this is our guy?

312
00:15:14,622 --> 00:15:16,249
Well, we showed the sketch
to Frank's friends,

313
00:15:16,332 --> 00:15:19,127
but none of 'em saw him,
so we're sending it over to hotel staff.

314
00:15:19,210 --> 00:15:20,586
Maybe we get lucky.

315
00:15:20,670 --> 00:15:21,838
Wait a sec.

316
00:15:23,214 --> 00:15:24,715
I've seen those eyes before.

317
00:15:26,425 --> 00:15:28,761
As much as I'd love to put
Vera's killer together piece by piece,

318
00:15:28,845 --> 00:15:30,972
unfortunately, Morgan,
we're not playing Mr. Potato Head.

319
00:15:32,265 --> 00:15:34,851
Yeah? Well, maybe we should be.

320
00:15:36,519 --> 00:15:40,773
You're telling me that's not
the exact same mouth, and her nose

321
00:15:40,857 --> 00:15:46,320
and beauty mark, and her eyes
and ears, and this guy's forehead?

322
00:15:46,404 --> 00:15:50,449
The reason no one's seen our mystery man
is because he doesn't exist.

323
00:15:51,075 --> 00:15:54,954
Charles just Frankensteined a bunch
of features from Frank's friends together,

324
00:15:55,037 --> 00:15:57,206
and we drew a picture about it.
Where is he?

325
00:15:57,290 --> 00:15:59,167
He's gone. We had no reason to hold him.

326
00:16:00,126 --> 00:16:01,627
He's not answering.

327
00:16:01,711 --> 00:16:03,421
Daphne's got something for us.

328
00:16:03,921 --> 00:16:05,840
CCU was able to recover some footage

329
00:16:05,923 --> 00:16:08,009
from the Blackwell elevators
off the hotel computer.

330
00:16:08,092 --> 00:16:09,343
I'm just looking through it.

331
00:16:09,427 --> 00:16:11,846
ME places Vera's death
between 2:00 and 4:00 in the morning.

332
00:16:11,929 --> 00:16:14,265
Start looking around there.
She was killed in the penthouse.

333
00:16:14,348 --> 00:16:16,142
I don't think he'd wait
to bring her to the pool.

334
00:16:16,851 --> 00:16:17,894
Here's something.

335
00:16:17,977 --> 00:16:20,354
Okay, you could fit a body in that cart.

336
00:16:49,550 --> 00:16:50,551
Lucia's on the way.

337
00:16:50,635 --> 00:16:53,387
I told her we have some questions
about the investigation.

338
00:16:53,471 --> 00:16:55,223
I have something I need to tell you, guys.

339
00:16:56,349 --> 00:16:58,434
I probably should've mentioned it earlier.

340
00:16:59,352 --> 00:17:00,519
- What is it?
- Um…

341
00:17:00,603 --> 00:17:04,398
This morning, I saw Lucia
and Charles Hale together.

342
00:17:04,482 --> 00:17:06,025
They were having a…

343
00:17:06,984 --> 00:17:07,985
conversation.

344
00:17:09,070 --> 00:17:10,071
A conversation?

345
00:17:10,571 --> 00:17:12,490
Yeah, I couldn't really make out
what they were saying.

346
00:17:12,573 --> 00:17:16,786
It was something about no cities,
just seasons, and frosty trees.

347
00:17:16,869 --> 00:17:18,246
I don't know. I couldn't make sense of it.

348
00:17:18,329 --> 00:17:20,748
All I can tell you is
it didn't make me feel good

349
00:17:20,831 --> 00:17:24,043
because they were very friendly.

350
00:17:26,212 --> 00:17:29,966
Well, Morgan, Lucia works for the hotel
and she talks to lots of the guests.

351
00:17:31,384 --> 00:17:34,303
You think that Lucia is involved

352
00:17:34,387 --> 00:17:36,639
with the man
who may have killed Vera Hensley?

353
00:17:36,722 --> 00:17:38,474
Look, I don't wanna be right about this.

354
00:17:38,558 --> 00:17:40,685
Well, that's good, Morgan,
because you are not.

355
00:17:40,768 --> 00:17:44,855
Look, Lucia's not seeing this man
or involved with this investigation.

356
00:17:44,939 --> 00:17:46,232
When she comes in, we can ask her.

357
00:17:46,315 --> 00:17:48,943
Adam, I don't think you should
be the one conducting this interview.

358
00:17:49,026 --> 00:17:50,736
Well, then, watch me.

359
00:17:51,320 --> 00:17:54,198
The moment you see
something you don't like, pull me out.

360
00:17:58,953 --> 00:18:01,872
Mmm. I've never been in here before.

361
00:18:01,956 --> 00:18:04,792
Yeah, we don't, uh, use it very often.

362
00:18:04,875 --> 00:18:07,128
You have kids' toys.

363
00:18:07,211 --> 00:18:08,838
So nice.

364
00:18:08,921 --> 00:18:10,923
Well, with kids,
you want 'em to feel comfortable,

365
00:18:11,007 --> 00:18:14,135
safe, you know, try to make
a bad situation a little better.

366
00:18:14,218 --> 00:18:18,681
Mmm. Careful, you make a great dad
talking like that.

367
00:18:19,265 --> 00:18:23,144
- Hmm.
- So, how can I help you with your case?

368
00:18:24,186 --> 00:18:26,522
You got called into work
pretty late last night.

369
00:18:26,606 --> 00:18:27,648
I did.

370
00:18:27,732 --> 00:18:29,191
What did they call you to the hotel for?

371
00:18:29,275 --> 00:18:32,403
Apparently, Frank Hensley's party
got a little out of hand.

372
00:18:32,903 --> 00:18:35,615
- What'd you find when you got there?
- Between you and me…

373
00:18:36,449 --> 00:18:37,533
a mess.

374
00:18:37,617 --> 00:18:39,910
Some of the items in the room were
even broken.

375
00:18:39,994 --> 00:18:42,246
I just cleaned it up,
took it with me, and left.

376
00:18:42,872 --> 00:18:44,332
How'd you get the stuff out?

377
00:18:44,415 --> 00:18:47,752
I put it all in a hotel meal cart,
rolled it right onto the elevator.

378
00:18:50,504 --> 00:18:54,342
Adam, what's going on?
Wait, are people watching us right now?

379
00:18:54,425 --> 00:18:56,594
Yeah, this is a murder investigation,

380
00:18:56,677 --> 00:18:59,555
and if I wasn't asking the questions,
someone else would be.

381
00:19:00,806 --> 00:19:02,975
When you got to the penthouse,
who was there?

382
00:19:04,310 --> 00:19:07,021
- No one.
- And how well do you know Charles Hale?

383
00:19:07,813 --> 00:19:10,483
Mr. Hale does a lot of business in LA.

384
00:19:10,566 --> 00:19:12,610
He stays at the Blackwell
when he's in town.

385
00:19:12,693 --> 00:19:14,028
What else do you know about him?

386
00:19:14,111 --> 00:19:16,656
I don't do background checks
on my guests, Adam.

387
00:19:16,739 --> 00:19:18,699
Well, the thing is,
when we showed you his photo,

388
00:19:18,783 --> 00:19:20,993
you neglected to mention
that he had been there before.

389
00:19:21,077 --> 00:19:23,496
Well, our guests expect discretion.

390
00:19:23,579 --> 00:19:26,874
If I had felt there was something
important, I would've told you.

391
00:19:26,957 --> 00:19:28,876
We believe Vera Hensley was killed
in the penthouse

392
00:19:28,959 --> 00:19:32,004
by Frank or Charles
and then moved to the pool.

393
00:19:32,088 --> 00:19:35,424
And the only person that was
in the elevator around her time of death…

394
00:19:35,508 --> 00:19:36,676
was you.

395
00:19:38,469 --> 00:19:41,972
You think I took a dead woman downstairs
in a hotel meal cart?

396
00:19:42,515 --> 00:19:43,516
No.

397
00:19:44,392 --> 00:19:46,018
But it is my job to figure out who did.

398
00:19:46,102 --> 00:19:50,231
Well, it's funny how your job seems
to keep coming in between us, but this…

399
00:19:50,314 --> 00:19:52,024
This, I did not see coming.

400
00:19:54,110 --> 00:19:56,696
We're looking for Charles right now.
Do you have any idea where he might be?

401
00:19:56,779 --> 00:19:58,739
How would I know that? I don't know him!

402
00:19:58,823 --> 00:20:01,951
Then, what were you guys talking
about on the street this morning?

403
00:20:06,288 --> 00:20:09,667
Businessmen like Charles are
the type of VIPs we want coming back

404
00:20:09,750 --> 00:20:10,751
to the Blackwell.

405
00:20:10,835 --> 00:20:13,129
So, that means
sometimes I have to be a little friendly,

406
00:20:13,212 --> 00:20:16,298
and sometimes a man like Charles can
take that the wrong way.

407
00:20:16,382 --> 00:20:19,009
And when it happens,
I make sure the line is clear.

408
00:20:20,803 --> 00:20:22,430
But Charles was…

409
00:20:23,514 --> 00:20:25,099
Trying to cross that line?

410
00:20:26,100 --> 00:20:29,019
First, he asked me
for restaurant recommendations.

411
00:20:29,770 --> 00:20:32,440
Then he invited me to join, and I said no.

412
00:20:33,649 --> 00:20:34,859
And I said no again.

413
00:20:35,568 --> 00:20:39,488
And he followed me out onto the street,
and I told him to never come back.

414
00:20:41,157 --> 00:20:42,742
I'm sorry that happened.

415
00:20:46,495 --> 00:20:48,289
Maybe I should've told you. I just…

416
00:20:49,039 --> 00:20:50,750
I didn't want you to worry.

417
00:20:56,130 --> 00:20:57,798
- Hey, I'll walk you out.
- Uh, that's okay.

418
00:20:58,382 --> 00:20:59,842
I know my way out.

419
00:21:03,596 --> 00:21:06,056
Charles told me he's flying out today,
so we're checking manifests.

420
00:21:06,140 --> 00:21:08,684
You didn't ask
about the "no cities, frosty trees" thing.

421
00:21:08,768 --> 00:21:10,060
That's what Charles said to her.

422
00:21:10,144 --> 00:21:11,395
That's what you thought you heard.

423
00:21:11,479 --> 00:21:13,647
Hey, Morgan,
we already know Charles is lying.

424
00:21:13,731 --> 00:21:16,609
Do you have any reason
to believe that Lucia is lying too?

425
00:21:18,986 --> 00:21:22,907
Lying is a really strong word, but yeah,

426
00:21:22,990 --> 00:21:25,242
I think there's something
she's not telling us.

427
00:21:25,326 --> 00:21:27,077
What I saw was a woman whose boyfriend

428
00:21:27,161 --> 00:21:29,163
was accusing her of being involved
in someone's murder.

429
00:21:29,246 --> 00:21:31,373
I can't imagine
what that must've been like for her.

430
00:21:31,457 --> 00:21:33,334
I know what it was like for me though.

431
00:21:33,417 --> 00:21:35,336
I'm gonna get an update
from Daphne and Oz.

432
00:21:38,881 --> 00:21:42,009
Hey, you want me
to be honest with you, right?

433
00:21:42,092 --> 00:21:43,886
I just think it would be smart
to bring her back in

434
00:21:43,969 --> 00:21:46,138
- and ask a couple more questions.
- It's not your call, Morgan.

435
00:21:46,222 --> 00:21:47,223
Sorry.

436
00:21:47,306 --> 00:21:49,016
I know this is uncomfortable for you,
okay?

437
00:21:49,099 --> 00:21:51,018
Soto could talk to her, or you know what?

438
00:21:51,101 --> 00:21:52,102
I'd be happy to do…

439
00:21:52,186 --> 00:21:54,230
Do you want Lucia
to be guilty of something?

440
00:21:56,065 --> 00:21:57,483
What does that mean?

441
00:21:57,566 --> 00:21:58,818
Where are we at with Charles Hale?

442
00:21:58,901 --> 00:22:01,487
Still monitoring the cell number
he gave the hotel. No location yet.

443
00:22:01,570 --> 00:22:03,572
- I hope you know…
- Know what?

444
00:22:03,656 --> 00:22:04,949
Is everything okay?

445
00:22:05,032 --> 00:22:07,743
I get that this is hard for you,
but you and I both know

446
00:22:07,827 --> 00:22:11,288
that if it was anyone else in that room,
you would be asking tougher questions.

447
00:22:11,372 --> 00:22:13,249
Are you accusing me of not doing my job?

448
00:22:13,332 --> 00:22:15,376
It's not just your job. This is personal.

449
00:22:15,459 --> 00:22:19,338
I know exactly what this is!
And I don't need you managing me.

450
00:22:20,631 --> 00:22:23,884
I am not one of your kids, Morgan,
so stop treating me like one!

451
00:22:57,209 --> 00:22:59,545
Yeah, it's a big tent, big tent.

452
00:22:59,628 --> 00:23:02,715
We need someone who's familiar
with the levers of government

453
00:23:02,798 --> 00:23:05,009
and actually knows how to use them.

454
00:23:10,681 --> 00:23:12,266
Excuse me one minute.

455
00:23:13,058 --> 00:23:16,312
Ms. Quinn and I do tend
to move in similar circles

456
00:23:16,395 --> 00:23:19,064
- if that's what you're after.
- That job that you had me offer Morgan

457
00:23:19,148 --> 00:23:20,774
didn't come from you, did it?

458
00:23:20,858 --> 00:23:23,777
It's okay. No offense taken.
It's nice to be wanted.

459
00:23:23,861 --> 00:23:27,156
Uh, speaking of Willa,
should we hunt around,

460
00:23:27,239 --> 00:23:29,283
see if we can go find her here, or…

461
00:23:30,326 --> 00:23:32,119
would you rather just make a phone call?

462
00:23:35,706 --> 00:23:36,790
Thank you.

463
00:23:38,250 --> 00:23:41,420
I see you've decided
not to take my advice.

464
00:23:41,962 --> 00:23:43,505
What a shame.

465
00:23:43,589 --> 00:23:47,676
No, a shame is my daughter losing out
on 15 years with her father,

466
00:23:47,760 --> 00:23:49,637
and that look on your face.

467
00:23:49,720 --> 00:23:51,597
Okay.

468
00:23:52,556 --> 00:23:53,599
I'm here.

469
00:23:55,267 --> 00:23:57,937
- What do you wanna say?
- This'll just take a minute.

470
00:23:58,020 --> 00:23:59,355
You know, when I was growing up,

471
00:23:59,438 --> 00:24:02,191
my father liked telling people
he was self-made,

472
00:24:02,274 --> 00:24:04,985
got there on merit, which wasn't true.

473
00:24:05,569 --> 00:24:06,779
There were people in your way

474
00:24:06,862 --> 00:24:09,865
who suddenly lost credibility,
jobs, everything.

475
00:24:09,949 --> 00:24:13,827
Some of 'em even disappeared,
and back then, I didn't understand.

476
00:24:14,954 --> 00:24:16,205
Now I do.

477
00:24:17,414 --> 00:24:18,666
It was you.

478
00:24:19,541 --> 00:24:22,544
Well, you're right.
I have… I've… I've helped your father.

479
00:24:22,628 --> 00:24:26,131
I've made introductions. I've given
advice sometimes……quietly.

480
00:24:26,215 --> 00:24:27,800
That's what I do.

481
00:24:27,883 --> 00:24:31,053
I'm willing to expose all of it,
every ugly detail.

482
00:24:31,136 --> 00:24:32,554
You can't prove any of it.

483
00:24:32,638 --> 00:24:35,349
Oh, I… I think actually we can.

484
00:24:38,310 --> 00:24:40,145
Detailed logs of all of your calls,

485
00:24:40,229 --> 00:24:43,232
texts, and e-mails
over the last year or so.

486
00:24:43,315 --> 00:24:45,359
Technology really is incredible, isn't it?

487
00:24:45,442 --> 00:24:48,404
You would not believe
how many incriminating documents

488
00:24:48,487 --> 00:24:50,030
you can cram onto something this tiny.

489
00:24:50,114 --> 00:24:53,075
- Well, if it's even real…
- Oh, it's real.

490
00:24:53,158 --> 00:24:56,203
The guy we met on our last case
gave us an assist.

491
00:24:56,286 --> 00:24:58,122
Decent bowler, great hacker.

492
00:24:58,205 --> 00:25:00,916
- That's fraud.
- Felony, inadmissible.

493
00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:02,876
Oh, absolutely, highly illegal.

494
00:25:02,960 --> 00:25:05,462
The courts would never allow it,
but the press will.

495
00:25:05,546 --> 00:25:08,465
You would really destroy
your father's life like this?

496
00:25:08,966 --> 00:25:10,509
I wouldn't worry so much about him.

497
00:25:10,592 --> 00:25:12,094
There's lots of stuff
about you on this file.

498
00:25:12,177 --> 00:25:14,638
I find that highly doubtful.

499
00:25:14,722 --> 00:25:18,058
Mr. Wagner and I don't keep up much
with correspondence.

500
00:25:18,142 --> 00:25:20,144
No, you don't,
but he really loves bragging

501
00:25:20,227 --> 00:25:22,646
to his high-powered friends
about his connections to you.

502
00:25:22,730 --> 00:25:25,107
- He can't shut up about it.
- This is your leverage?

503
00:25:25,190 --> 00:25:27,901
Well, if it isn't,
you have nothing to worry about.

504
00:25:28,485 --> 00:25:30,821
But if it is, you know how to stop it.

505
00:25:35,200 --> 00:25:36,785
Tell me what happened to Roman.

506
00:25:40,456 --> 00:25:44,835
I've tried very hard
to keep this from reaching your life.

507
00:25:45,753 --> 00:25:49,381
If you're doing all of this
to get answers for one child,

508
00:25:49,465 --> 00:25:52,468
has it even entered your brain
that you're inches away

509
00:25:52,551 --> 00:25:55,512
from putting baby Chloe
and Elliot in danger?

510
00:25:56,555 --> 00:25:59,266
Okay. I'm done. Mwah.

511
00:26:27,419 --> 00:26:29,171
- No, no, no. You get back in the car.
- What are you doing?

512
00:26:29,254 --> 00:26:32,549
- Stay away from me. Get back in the car.
- Okay, fine. It's fine. It's fine. Go, go.

513
00:26:32,633 --> 00:26:34,968
You don't get to say my kids' names.

514
00:26:35,052 --> 00:26:37,221
You have no idea what you're doing.

515
00:26:37,304 --> 00:26:40,099
- I'm trying to warn you! Just…
- Tell me what you did!

516
00:26:40,182 --> 00:26:41,975
Who are you protecting?

517
00:26:42,059 --> 00:26:47,064
Okay. You need to think very carefully
about what you are asking.

518
00:26:47,147 --> 00:26:49,983
Oh, my God! Just answer the question!

519
00:26:50,067 --> 00:26:52,319
Fine, I'll give you what you want,

520
00:26:52,402 --> 00:26:55,155
and then we'll see
how badly you wanna keep digging.

521
00:27:02,871 --> 00:27:06,667
Did you speed through the red
before or after you ran into Willa's car?

522
00:27:08,127 --> 00:27:10,671
She threatened my kids.
You would've done the same thing.

523
00:27:12,131 --> 00:27:13,423
I wouldn't have ran the red.

524
00:27:15,008 --> 00:27:16,802
I have something you should see.

525
00:27:17,553 --> 00:27:20,013
Charles Hale's employment data
didn't check out.

526
00:27:20,097 --> 00:27:21,431
Dates overlap.

527
00:27:21,515 --> 00:27:24,268
One company doesn't exist,
so I ran his prints federally.

528
00:27:24,351 --> 00:27:25,769
I got hits under three different names.

529
00:27:25,853 --> 00:27:27,855
This guy's lived all over the place.

530
00:27:27,938 --> 00:27:30,858
Alamogordo, New Mexico. San Angelo, Texas.

531
00:27:30,941 --> 00:27:32,484
Yakima, Washington.

532
00:27:32,568 --> 00:27:35,654
You know, I can run it in Copilot.

533
00:27:35,737 --> 00:27:40,367
I'll have it categorize police reports
by location, date, and name,

534
00:27:40,450 --> 00:27:43,954
then color code them by location
and create a summary of the findings.

535
00:27:44,538 --> 00:27:45,789
Okay, here we go.

536
00:27:45,873 --> 00:27:49,334
I'm finding reports on alleged scams
in multiple cities he's lived in.

537
00:27:49,418 --> 00:27:52,045
Look, he posed
as a start-up investor in Phoenix.

538
00:27:52,129 --> 00:27:54,131
A high-end real estate partner in Ojai.

539
00:27:54,923 --> 00:27:56,967
So, he's not a businessman,
he's a con man.

540
00:27:57,509 --> 00:28:00,470
So Frank was his next target,
but why kill Vera?

541
00:28:01,263 --> 00:28:03,098
Well, hang on a second.

542
00:28:04,057 --> 00:28:07,519
Charles checked into the hotel
the same day Frank did,

543
00:28:07,603 --> 00:28:09,855
except Frank was a do-not-announce.

544
00:28:11,106 --> 00:28:13,317
So, how did Charles know
he was even there?

545
00:28:26,496 --> 00:28:27,706
Lucia.

546
00:28:30,792 --> 00:28:33,378
You said Charles,
or whatever his real name is,

547
00:28:33,462 --> 00:28:34,546
lived in Alamogordo?

548
00:28:34,630 --> 00:28:35,839
New Mexico, yeah. Why?

549
00:28:35,923 --> 00:28:39,801
That's by White Sands National Park,
the largest gypsum dune field in America.

550
00:28:39,885 --> 00:28:41,553
- Gypsum?
- Unlike quartz sand,

551
00:28:41,637 --> 00:28:45,223
gypsum sand dissolves completely in water,
which makes it incredibly rare.

552
00:28:45,307 --> 00:28:48,518
Lucia gave this to Karadec.
It can't be a coincidence.

553
00:28:48,602 --> 00:28:51,772
I think that she and Charles were
in the same city at the same time.

554
00:28:51,855 --> 00:28:52,856
Where's Karadec?

555
00:28:57,194 --> 00:28:58,195
Yeah.

556
00:28:58,278 --> 00:29:01,239
Charles Hale is a con man,
and I think Lucia is involved.

557
00:29:01,323 --> 00:29:02,741
Morgan. I'm not gonna do this again.

558
00:29:02,824 --> 00:29:04,910
Okay. Just hear me out, okay?

559
00:29:04,993 --> 00:29:06,787
The day that Frank checked
into the Blackwell,

560
00:29:06,870 --> 00:29:08,664
I think Charles was tipped off.

561
00:29:08,747 --> 00:29:12,584
- He came to the hotel to con Frank.
- Any idea what the con was?

562
00:29:12,668 --> 00:29:15,504
I mean, Frank and Vera's whole brand was
that they were a happy couple, right?

563
00:29:15,587 --> 00:29:17,089
It made them millions.

564
00:29:17,172 --> 00:29:19,883
So if Charles got evidence
that Frank wasn't the devoted husband

565
00:29:19,967 --> 00:29:21,009
that he claimed to be…

566
00:29:21,093 --> 00:29:23,220
Frank would've paid anything
to keep it from getting out.

567
00:29:23,303 --> 00:29:24,972
Charles was gonna blackmail Frank.

568
00:29:25,055 --> 00:29:26,682
While Frank and his friends went
to the pool,

569
00:29:26,765 --> 00:29:28,392
Charles was in the room alone.

570
00:29:29,017 --> 00:29:32,437
Vera walked in and caught him planting
a recording device.

571
00:29:32,521 --> 00:29:34,231
So he had to take out the witness.

572
00:29:46,660 --> 00:29:48,745
Okay, so how did Vera end up by the pool?

573
00:29:49,579 --> 00:29:51,415
She snuck out and she ran.

574
00:29:51,498 --> 00:29:53,000
But that elevator is slow,

575
00:29:53,083 --> 00:29:54,793
and she was afraid
that Charles would come after her.

576
00:29:54,876 --> 00:29:56,461
So she took the stairs,
but we didn't see it

577
00:29:56,545 --> 00:29:57,963
because there were no cameras there.

578
00:29:58,046 --> 00:30:00,716
It was dark. She was disoriented.

579
00:30:03,260 --> 00:30:04,886
Lucia did clean the room

580
00:30:04,970 --> 00:30:07,097
like she told us,
but she left out one thing.

581
00:30:07,180 --> 00:30:09,516
I think Charles was back in that room.

582
00:30:10,517 --> 00:30:12,769
Unless Charles could've done
all of this on his own.

583
00:30:13,437 --> 00:30:16,440
There were two things that Charles
could not have done on his own.

584
00:30:16,523 --> 00:30:18,400
You think she erased the videotape.

585
00:30:22,779 --> 00:30:25,073
And she tipped off Charles
in the first place

586
00:30:25,157 --> 00:30:27,784
that his next big mark
just walked into her hotel lobby.

587
00:30:28,952 --> 00:30:30,996
That's why Lucia's been so upset.

588
00:30:31,079 --> 00:30:34,791
She's the one who brought
Charles Hale into the Blackwell Hotel.

589
00:30:41,631 --> 00:30:42,924
I'm really sorry.

590
00:30:46,261 --> 00:30:47,554
I'll call you back.

591
00:31:14,623 --> 00:31:16,166
Come on, Charles! Please!

592
00:31:18,043 --> 00:31:19,419
Lucia.

593
00:31:20,003 --> 00:31:22,130
- He won't listen to me.
- It's okay.

594
00:31:23,090 --> 00:31:24,299
Let me handle it.

595
00:31:26,802 --> 00:31:31,014
Charles, I need you to put the safety on
and drop it to the ground, please.

596
00:31:31,098 --> 00:31:32,099
I don't think so.

597
00:31:35,811 --> 00:31:38,688
You know, I got a feeling that you care
about Lucia as much as I do.

598
00:31:39,272 --> 00:31:41,399
Do not do something
that she will have to live with

599
00:31:41,483 --> 00:31:43,610
for the rest of her life, okay?

600
00:31:44,277 --> 00:31:45,570
Don't do that to her.

601
00:31:46,780 --> 00:31:50,200
Charles, there are some things
that you and I cannot change

602
00:31:50,283 --> 00:31:51,701
no matter how much we want to.

603
00:31:52,828 --> 00:31:54,871
But what we can decide is how this ends.

604
00:31:55,539 --> 00:31:57,624
I can think about a bunch of ways
we can turn this day around,

605
00:31:57,707 --> 00:32:00,335
but they all start
with you dropping that gun.

606
00:32:20,313 --> 00:32:21,439
Watch your head.

607
00:32:24,693 --> 00:32:26,486
How did you know we would be here?

608
00:32:29,030 --> 00:32:32,951
"No cities, just seasons.
Frosty trees."

609
00:32:33,577 --> 00:32:35,912
Those fans are there
to keep the frost off the trees.

610
00:32:35,996 --> 00:32:38,623
That and Charles,
or whatever his real name is,

611
00:32:38,707 --> 00:32:39,875
was trying to buy this place.

612
00:32:39,958 --> 00:32:41,543
Just an instinct, I guess.

613
00:32:41,626 --> 00:32:44,004
I didn't come here
to run away with him, Adam.

614
00:32:46,339 --> 00:32:48,633
I just didn't want anyone else
to get hurt.

615
00:32:53,180 --> 00:32:55,140
We met in New Mexico.

616
00:32:55,223 --> 00:32:58,810
I was still getting over you,
and he seemed to understand that.

617
00:33:02,314 --> 00:33:04,733
- Did you know what he did?
- Not at first.

618
00:33:06,818 --> 00:33:09,321
But when I found out,
he said he wanted to change.

619
00:33:09,946 --> 00:33:13,116
He just needed, like,
a couple more big paydays first.

620
00:33:13,950 --> 00:33:15,035
So I helped him.

621
00:33:15,118 --> 00:33:18,079
I pointed to a couple
of high-profile guests at other hotels.

622
00:33:20,624 --> 00:33:21,875
But he didn't change.

623
00:33:22,918 --> 00:33:24,002
So I left.

624
00:33:24,085 --> 00:33:25,587
I came back here.

625
00:33:27,214 --> 00:33:28,506
I bumped into you.

626
00:33:29,966 --> 00:33:31,384
And then he showed up at the Blackwell

627
00:33:31,468 --> 00:33:33,637
and told me if I didn't find
his next mark,

628
00:33:33,720 --> 00:33:37,057
that he was gonna make sure
my cop boyfriend learned everything.

629
00:33:38,058 --> 00:33:41,269
But that if I did it,
he would disappear for good.

630
00:33:42,395 --> 00:33:46,691
I didn't want him to destroy everything
that we have, Adam.

631
00:33:52,948 --> 00:33:55,075
Where's the bookend he used to kill Vera?

632
00:33:58,703 --> 00:34:00,080
Adam, it's me.

633
00:34:07,837 --> 00:34:08,880
Yes, thank you.

634
00:34:09,422 --> 00:34:12,884
They got him.
Charles is in custody. Everyone is safe.

635
00:34:13,593 --> 00:34:14,886
I just got this.

636
00:34:14,970 --> 00:34:17,389
- What is it?
- Willa came through.

637
00:34:18,181 --> 00:34:19,849
This FBI agent, Lyla Flynn,

638
00:34:19,933 --> 00:34:21,935
she was working undercover,
and she was murdered.

639
00:34:22,018 --> 00:34:24,396
- Mm-hmm.
- Turns out she was dirty.

640
00:34:24,938 --> 00:34:29,442
Mmm. It looks that way.
Selling intel, laundering money.

641
00:34:29,526 --> 00:34:30,694
There's something else.

642
00:34:31,736 --> 00:34:32,737
What?

643
00:34:44,958 --> 00:34:47,377
They suspect
that Roman was working with her,

644
00:34:47,460 --> 00:34:50,088
and when she decided to come clean,

645
00:34:50,964 --> 00:34:51,965
he killed her.

646
00:34:53,925 --> 00:34:57,721
This was a scandal too big for the FBI,
and Willa helped them bury it.

647
00:34:58,346 --> 00:35:03,018
Security cameras caught these outside
Lyla's house the day she was murdered.

648
00:35:03,768 --> 00:35:05,353
That's Roman's car.

649
00:35:08,440 --> 00:35:10,108
No.

650
00:35:10,191 --> 00:35:13,278
I'm done. Let-Let's be done.

651
00:35:15,155 --> 00:35:16,448
Can you give us a minute?

652
00:35:18,783 --> 00:35:19,784
Yeah.

653
00:35:23,288 --> 00:35:24,539
What does that mean?

654
00:35:24,623 --> 00:35:27,083
Stop digging, okay?

655
00:35:27,167 --> 00:35:29,711
Listen, I-I don't know.
It doesn't matter anymore.

656
00:35:29,794 --> 00:35:30,962
It's just not safe.

657
00:35:31,046 --> 00:35:32,881
It's not safe? It's never been safe.

658
00:35:32,964 --> 00:35:36,968
Erik Hayworth, this woman…
I don't know. I don't know what's true.

659
00:35:37,052 --> 00:35:39,596
All I know is that if anything were
to happen to any of you…

660
00:35:39,679 --> 00:35:42,432
Morgan, stepping away is
simply not an option anymore.

661
00:35:42,515 --> 00:35:44,392
- Oh, my God.
- Okay, I'm scared too.

662
00:35:44,476 --> 00:35:46,061
But I can take care of myself.

663
00:35:48,396 --> 00:35:51,691
Whatever happens,
we'll do it together, okay?

664
00:36:07,248 --> 00:36:09,793
- Hey.
- Hey.

665
00:36:11,795 --> 00:36:12,796
Come in.

666
00:36:22,222 --> 00:36:23,306
How you doing?

667
00:36:24,349 --> 00:36:26,476
Well, the unis are taking Lucia
to the precinct now.

668
00:36:26,559 --> 00:36:27,644
Oh, God. I'm sorry.

669
00:36:27,727 --> 00:36:29,854
You don't have anything to be sorry for.

670
00:36:31,731 --> 00:36:34,234
I'm sorry. You warned me.
I should've listened.

671
00:36:34,317 --> 00:36:36,027
Should be charged
with accessory after the fact.

672
00:36:36,111 --> 00:36:38,571
- Karadec.
- Though with the other cons

673
00:36:38,655 --> 00:36:41,574
that her and Charles were involved in,
the charges will increase.

674
00:36:41,658 --> 00:36:43,034
Adam.

675
00:36:53,211 --> 00:36:54,921
I can't believe this is happening.

676
00:36:58,258 --> 00:37:00,427
Just cannot believe it.

677
00:37:01,302 --> 00:37:03,221
- I feel so stupid.
- No, don't.

678
00:37:03,888 --> 00:37:05,181
Please don't do that.

679
00:37:06,558 --> 00:37:07,934
You did it right.

680
00:37:09,144 --> 00:37:11,563
You did.
You opened your heart, you let her in.

681
00:37:13,106 --> 00:37:15,191
That's always gonna be the right move.

682
00:37:18,194 --> 00:37:19,195
I believed her.

683
00:37:21,698 --> 00:37:23,867
I believe she wanted a life with me.

684
00:37:26,244 --> 00:37:27,704
Now, I don't even know who this person is.

685
00:37:27,787 --> 00:37:28,913
Yes, you do.

686
00:37:29,873 --> 00:37:31,040
Yes, you do.

687
00:37:33,376 --> 00:37:35,670
You do. It's the same person. You just…

688
00:37:38,923 --> 00:37:42,552
You just loved her too much to see
the things that you didn't wanna see.

689
00:37:45,180 --> 00:37:46,556
It's okay.

690
00:37:49,726 --> 00:37:51,102
It's gonna be okay.

691
00:38:02,822 --> 00:38:06,034
- I got to go see Ava's art show.
- Yeah.

692
00:38:06,117 --> 00:38:07,911
- You wanna come with me?
- I would love to,

693
00:38:07,994 --> 00:38:11,706
but I have some things that I really need
to take care of, you know.

694
00:38:11,790 --> 00:38:12,791
Okay.

695
00:38:14,501 --> 00:38:16,002
But I'm here if you need me.

696
00:38:19,881 --> 00:38:20,882
I know.

697
00:38:28,890 --> 00:38:30,266
See ya.

698
00:38:49,202 --> 00:38:50,578
- Mom.
- Hi.

699
00:38:50,662 --> 00:38:51,871
I'm so glad you made it.

700
00:38:53,873 --> 00:38:55,041
Wow.

701
00:38:55,124 --> 00:38:57,502
So, what do you think?

702
00:38:59,295 --> 00:39:01,506
- Ava, this is…
- Boring?

703
00:39:01,589 --> 00:39:05,468
Yes, I just fell asleep.
No, buddy, this is incredible.

704
00:39:10,390 --> 00:39:13,560
I am so impressed.
You did this all by yourself.

705
00:39:14,894 --> 00:39:18,273
Well, I guess I had some help
from my dad.

706
00:39:21,442 --> 00:39:22,652
Yeah, I guess you did.

707
00:39:26,239 --> 00:39:29,158
You're not gonna start crying, are you?
Please don't embarrass me.

708
00:39:29,242 --> 00:39:31,160
My little baby girl did this one!

709
00:39:31,244 --> 00:39:32,495
Oh, my God, Mom.

710
00:39:38,835 --> 00:39:40,086
Hey. What's going on?

711
00:39:40,169 --> 00:39:42,422
Hey. My father gave me a name.

712
00:39:42,505 --> 00:39:46,092
It's an old FBI ghost that was there
when everything went down with Roman.

713
00:39:46,175 --> 00:39:47,468
I'm meeting him tonight.

714
00:39:47,552 --> 00:39:50,096
- Tonight? Well, I-I gotta come with you.
- No.

715
00:39:50,179 --> 00:39:52,348
You need to stay away
until I get eyes on this guy.

716
00:39:52,432 --> 00:39:54,017
I'll be fine. You'll be there.

717
00:39:54,767 --> 00:39:56,352
Come on, I need to talk to him.

718
00:39:57,896 --> 00:39:58,897
Okay.

719
00:40:00,106 --> 00:40:03,109
9:30, Rancho Park. South side of the pond.

720
00:40:03,192 --> 00:40:04,736
Okay, I'll see you soon.

721
00:40:48,279 --> 00:40:49,739
Yeah, I mean it was…

722
00:41:22,397 --> 00:41:23,398
Hey!
