00:00:06,410 --> 00:00:08,105
NARRATOR:
In the criminal justice system
2
00:00:08,179 --> 00:00:12,115
the people are represented by two
separate yet equally important groups,
3
00:00:12,183 --> 00:00:13,980
the police who investigate crime
4
00:00:14,051 --> 00:00:16,781
and the district attorneys
who prosecute the offenders.
5
00:00:16,854 --> 00:00:18,116
These are their stories.
6
00:00:19,756 --> 00:00:22,054
ANDY: Carmine says Tuesday.
JERRY: Can't make that.
7
00:00:22,292 --> 00:00:23,350
Wednesday's out for Gail.
8
00:00:23,426 --> 00:00:25,587
So, I won't go.
You've got to go.
9
00:00:26,396 --> 00:00:28,387
How's the leg?
It's like new.
10
00:00:28,465 --> 00:00:29,989
Yeah?
How about another mile?
11
00:00:31,268 --> 00:00:32,268
It's kind of late.
12
00:00:32,369 --> 00:00:35,304
And five miles is as much
as you old guys can handle.
13
00:00:35,739 --> 00:00:37,366
Bring it on, Kip Keino.
14
00:00:38,475 --> 00:00:39,669
(GROANS)
15
00:00:40,010 --> 00:00:41,170
You okay?
Lts a cramp.
16
00:00:41,444 --> 00:00:42,706
You go on. There's a water fountain.
If you just...
17
00:00:42,779 --> 00:00:43,779
I said go.
18
00:00:44,714 --> 00:00:45,976
(PANTING)
19
00:00:50,453 --> 00:00:51,784
(GROANS)
20
00:00:55,090 --> 00:00:56,523
Name's Andy Corvo.
21
00:00:56,592 --> 00:00:59,584
This poor slob decided to tack an
extra mile onto his morning run.
22
00:01:00,296 --> 00:01:02,896
That's the thing I never understood
about this whole running thing.
23
00:01:02,898 --> 00:01:04,297
Why run if you can walk to it?
24
00:01:04,400 --> 00:01:05,697
Well, it gets
your heart started.
25
00:01:06,068 --> 00:01:07,948
Or in the case of this guy,
brings it to a stop.
26
00:01:08,003 --> 00:01:10,483
Wait. Hold on, Schmidt. You ruined
breakfast for a heart attack?
27
00:01:10,739 --> 00:01:12,400
You know Nelson?
Who doesn't.
28
00:01:12,508 --> 00:01:14,567
Well, he's the first officer
on the scene, right?
29
00:01:14,810 --> 00:01:17,836
Turns out he drinks a whole thermos
of coffee waiting for EMS to show.
30
00:01:18,380 --> 00:01:21,577
When they finally get there, he's
uncomfortable, if you catch my drift.
31
00:01:21,650 --> 00:01:23,083
What are we, in the third grade?
32
00:01:23,152 --> 00:01:25,643
So, he comes over to these
bushes to take care of business.
33
00:01:25,721 --> 00:01:27,348
Imagine his surprise
when he looks down.
34
00:01:30,291 --> 00:01:31,417
Whoa, whoa, Ed.
35
00:01:31,492 --> 00:01:35,223
Did he see the body before or
after he "did his business"?
36
00:01:35,296 --> 00:01:36,763
He never got his
zipper down. Why?
37
00:01:39,434 --> 00:01:42,028
Looks like a single shot to the head.
NELSON: Very observant.
38
00:01:43,137 --> 00:01:44,536
If I had to guess,
a.38.
39
00:01:44,605 --> 00:01:45,925
You ain't had
enough coffee today?
40
00:01:45,973 --> 00:01:48,407
Hey, don't knock it, Ed. If it
wasn't for Nelson's bladder,
41
00:01:48,476 --> 00:01:50,341
she could have been here
till Arbor Day.
42
00:01:50,411 --> 00:01:54,609
Very funny. Anyway, the M.E. Says she's
newly deceased, ten to 12 hours.
43
00:01:55,083 --> 00:01:57,813
Her name's Anna Briseno. Lives
up in Washington Heights.
44
00:01:58,419 --> 00:02:00,899
Well, the way she's dressed, I
doubt she was out here for a run.
45
00:02:00,988 --> 00:02:02,979
If she was,
she didn't run fast enough.
46
00:02:58,010 --> 00:02:59,910
Anna always made sure
we had flowers.
47
00:03:00,913 --> 00:03:02,710
ED: We're sorry for
your loss, Mr. Briseno.
48
00:03:03,983 --> 00:03:08,818
She said the smell reminded her of when she
was little and lived in a better place.
49
00:03:09,121 --> 00:03:10,121
Where was that?
50
00:03:10,589 --> 00:03:12,955
It reminded her of
her Mom's house in San Juan.
51
00:03:14,794 --> 00:03:16,785
Sometimes she wanted
to move back there.
52
00:03:18,696 --> 00:03:19,788
But I always said no.
53
00:03:22,434 --> 00:03:24,334
When's the last time
you saw your wife?
54
00:03:26,938 --> 00:03:29,858
Yesterday, in the morning, when she
left for work around 7:00, like always.
55
00:03:31,209 --> 00:03:33,143
She's a kick-press operator
at Geyer.
56
00:03:33,778 --> 00:03:35,746
What's that?
A jewelry factory.
57
00:03:36,247 --> 00:03:40,650
She makes findings. I work security at
the warehouse out in Long Island City.
58
00:03:43,755 --> 00:03:46,485
I was drinking coffee,
watching the news.
59
00:03:47,892 --> 00:03:49,086
She kissed me goodbye.
60
00:03:50,228 --> 00:03:52,423
Did she say she was
going out after work?
61
00:03:52,664 --> 00:03:53,664
Where would she go?
62
00:03:54,165 --> 00:03:56,724
You weren't concerned when she
didn't come home? I work nights.
63
00:03:57,201 --> 00:04:00,568
A lot of the times I leave before she gets
home or she leaves before I get home.
64
00:04:02,172 --> 00:04:05,107
She used to say that she helped the
big shots make money during the day
65
00:04:05,175 --> 00:04:07,075
and I kept an eye on it
at night.
66
00:04:09,112 --> 00:04:10,909
Only neither of us
got a piece of the action.
67
00:04:16,520 --> 00:04:17,640
ELLEN: That was her station.
68
00:04:20,157 --> 00:04:22,421
I'm sorry.
This is so hard.
69
00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:25,360
It sounds like you two
were pretty close.
70
00:04:28,365 --> 00:04:31,094
Eight hours a day, five days a
week for the last six years.
71
00:04:32,401 --> 00:04:34,130
You could go to Anna
with a problem.
72
00:04:34,904 --> 00:04:38,032
What about when she had a problem?
Did she tell those to anybody?
73
00:04:38,374 --> 00:04:40,205
Nothing beyond the usual gripes.
74
00:04:40,309 --> 00:04:43,904
You know, more money in her
paycheck, a better place to live,
75
00:04:44,013 --> 00:04:46,208
trying to put away enough
to go on a nice vacation.
76
00:04:46,716 --> 00:04:48,081
You were here
when she left last night?
77
00:04:48,184 --> 00:04:52,211
We both did a little overtime. I left at
9:00, and she was gone maybe a half hour.
78
00:04:52,688 --> 00:04:54,451
She mention any plans she had?
79
00:04:56,058 --> 00:04:58,993
She did put on some rouge
and lip gloss before she left.
80
00:05:00,496 --> 00:05:01,758
Oh, you're not suggesting...
81
00:05:01,831 --> 00:05:04,595
No. No. We're just
covering all the bases.
82
00:05:05,034 --> 00:05:08,298
Because she would never cheat on Rafael,
if that's what you're thinking.
83
00:05:09,204 --> 00:05:11,399
I just assumed she was
meeting a friend for dinner.
84
00:05:13,008 --> 00:05:16,671
Tox screen shows she had one drink, tops.
No signs of sex.
85
00:05:17,078 --> 00:05:19,569
Sounds like my last date.
Any signs of struggle?
86
00:05:19,748 --> 00:05:21,147
Nah. None that I could find.
87
00:05:21,516 --> 00:05:25,418
No scrapings under her nails, no scratches,
no extraneous bruising or marking.
88
00:05:25,487 --> 00:05:26,784
ED: Except for
the hole in her head.
89
00:05:26,855 --> 00:05:28,895
Yeah. Which, from the powder
burns and bone beveling,
90
00:05:28,957 --> 00:05:31,221
I'd say was made
from very close range.
91
00:05:32,527 --> 00:05:35,655
Her ID and cash were still there, so
this ain't your garden variety mugging.
92
00:05:35,730 --> 00:05:37,857
No. Just your
garden variety psycho.
93
00:05:37,933 --> 00:05:39,366
Who took her to dinner first.
94
00:05:41,469 --> 00:05:43,800
The murdered woman
ate a hearty meal.
95
00:05:44,672 --> 00:05:46,936
Barbecue pork
and waffle potatoes.
96
00:05:47,041 --> 00:05:50,340
And her appetizer was?
Sweet potato fries.
97
00:05:50,544 --> 00:05:54,503
Call me crazy, but I don't know too many
women who order two types of potatoes.
98
00:05:54,882 --> 00:05:56,179
Yeah. She was hardly
working from
99
00:05:56,250 --> 00:05:57,649
the heart-healthy
end of the menu.
100
00:05:57,718 --> 00:06:00,846
Or the midtown section of Zagat's.
That's uptown cooking right there.
101
00:06:01,488 --> 00:06:04,821
Maybe we ought to look into the restaurants
closest to where we found the body.
102
00:06:04,892 --> 00:06:05,892
Mmm-hmm.
103
00:06:10,364 --> 00:06:12,525
Yeah, she was here.
Came in about an hour late.
104
00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:14,934
But then, what woman
you know comes in on time?
105
00:06:15,069 --> 00:06:17,069
Last time I was here,
you didn't take reservations.
106
00:06:17,338 --> 00:06:19,032
Still don't. So how you
know she was late?
107
00:06:19,772 --> 00:06:21,535
'Cause some poor sap
was waiting for her.
108
00:06:21,808 --> 00:06:24,709
Pacing back and forth, kept checking
his watch every few minutes.
109
00:06:24,978 --> 00:06:27,503
I offered him a free beer at the
bar, but he turned me down.
110
00:06:27,814 --> 00:06:30,578
So what time did she show?
Maybe 9:30.
111
00:06:30,917 --> 00:06:32,009
He let her have it?
112
00:06:32,151 --> 00:06:33,675
Nah. He calmed down
pretty quick.
113
00:06:34,053 --> 00:06:35,953
She gave him a big hug.
No kiss?
114
00:06:36,656 --> 00:06:37,656
You married?
115
00:06:38,257 --> 00:06:39,747
Yeah. I've toyed
with the notion.
116
00:06:40,026 --> 00:06:44,190
Well, let me tell you, guys married more
than a year aren't big on public displays.
117
00:06:44,530 --> 00:06:46,896
Wait a minute. You're saying that this
girl had dinner with her husband?
118
00:06:46,966 --> 00:06:49,196
A single guy would have
bolted, half hour tops.
119
00:06:49,502 --> 00:06:50,764
Yeah, that'll hold up in court.
120
00:06:51,204 --> 00:06:53,331
He also kept asking
if his wife called for him.
121
00:06:54,107 --> 00:06:55,106
Excuse me.
122
00:06:56,341 --> 00:06:59,276
Now how do you suppose Rafael put
in his eight hours at the office
123
00:06:59,344 --> 00:07:01,278
and had dinner with
the missus at the same time?
124
00:07:01,546 --> 00:07:04,106
If I knew, maybe I could have
held on to wife number two.
125
00:07:05,217 --> 00:07:09,210
Nope. Punched in at 8:00,
out at 6:00.
126
00:07:10,088 --> 00:07:11,350
Rafael do something?
127
00:07:11,456 --> 00:07:13,924
Not if he really was here all night.
I just told you.
128
00:07:14,660 --> 00:07:17,424
Hey, he wouldn't be the first guy
to have a pal punch out for him.
129
00:07:17,696 --> 00:07:18,890
Our people don't
do that sort of thing.
130
00:07:19,197 --> 00:07:20,397
ED: And you're sure because...
131
00:07:20,399 --> 00:07:23,061
Because they know what I'd do
to them if I ever found out.
132
00:07:23,568 --> 00:07:24,694
Well, that convinces me.
133
00:07:25,003 --> 00:07:28,268
I hire good people. Rafael
Briseno is one of the best.
134
00:07:28,640 --> 00:07:31,199
Always on time, always ready
to fill in when needed.
135
00:07:31,509 --> 00:07:32,509
Were you here all night?
136
00:07:32,710 --> 00:07:35,645
No. But... Maybe we could
talk to somebody who was?
137
00:07:41,419 --> 00:07:44,149
Mary's working a double shift.
She was on last night.
138
00:07:45,723 --> 00:07:48,487
You private dicks are nothing at
all like in those books I read.
139
00:07:48,859 --> 00:07:51,794
Those dudes solve cases. In real
life, you just annoy people.
140
00:07:51,862 --> 00:07:54,126
Hey, even I dress
better than a P.I.
141
00:07:54,198 --> 00:07:55,893
Now, what made you
think we were for hire?
142
00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:58,525
Raf's wife.
Talk about paranoid.
143
00:07:58,602 --> 00:08:00,602
She had a couple of guys
snooping around after him.
144
00:08:01,105 --> 00:08:03,345
(SCOFFS) She always thought he
was catting around. Was he?
145
00:08:03,541 --> 00:08:05,861
If he did, he hid it right. I
didn't hear word one about it.
146
00:08:06,110 --> 00:08:08,373
ED: He was here last night?
We did our shift together.
147
00:08:08,478 --> 00:08:11,538
He walked the halls and I clocked the
computers. Quiet night all around.
148
00:08:11,948 --> 00:08:14,007
What about lunch break?
He go anywhere for that?
149
00:08:14,084 --> 00:08:16,985
Not many places you wanna go at 4:00
in the morning. At least for food.
150
00:08:17,487 --> 00:08:20,127
We ordered a pizza and had it delivered
and ate it in the back room.
151
00:08:20,390 --> 00:08:22,190
Box is still in the fridge
with the leftovers.
152
00:08:23,059 --> 00:08:25,357
You thinking Raf did something wrong?
ED: Should we?
153
00:08:25,562 --> 00:08:26,824
I'd hate to think so.
154
00:08:27,130 --> 00:08:29,394
Comes off as a decent guy.
Big baseball fan.
155
00:08:29,599 --> 00:08:33,126
Loves the Mets, always listening to
their games on the radio in the summer.
156
00:08:33,436 --> 00:08:36,337
Married and a Mets fan. He's
a glutton for punishment.
157
00:08:36,940 --> 00:08:37,940
Go Yankees.
158
00:08:39,042 --> 00:08:42,943
She's the one cheating, and she hires
a P.I. To tail him. That makes sense.
159
00:08:43,011 --> 00:08:44,740
We don't know
if she was cheating.
160
00:08:44,813 --> 00:08:47,111
Hey, if you're meeting
a friend for dinner,
161
00:08:47,182 --> 00:08:49,412
do you tell a perfect stranger
that she's your wife?
162
00:08:49,651 --> 00:08:51,642
Maybe if he was
a former husband.
163
00:08:51,854 --> 00:08:53,651
From personal experience,
I can tell you,
164
00:08:53,722 --> 00:08:58,022
former husbands refer to former wives
as their ex, at least in mixed company.
165

Eight years ago.

ED: Share it.
171

The SS number is issued to a
woman named Marcela Celaya...
172
00:09:27,188 --> 00:09:28,188
So she changed her name?

and then she gets married.

in the Britannica.

Was Anna Carranza.
243

I knew her family.
No Celaya. No Marcela.

and became Briseno.

just bury my wife.

In shock.
262
00:14:45,063 --> 00:14:46,087
That made you suspicious?
263
00:14:46,665 --> 00:14:49,566
Oh, no, he's all shook up all right,
but I think it's because he's scared.

all night?

me to punch him out, and I did.

couple shots and he was out the door.

Let's hope.
What did the attendant say?
345
00:18:57,709 --> 00:19:00,143
He cleaned the bathroom
first thing this morning,
346
00:19:00,211 --> 00:19:01,974
which means it was
probably written today.
347
00:19:02,046 --> 00:19:03,046

for the bathroom key all day

00:19:11,022 --> 00:19:12,580
was a woman in a blue Chevy.

doing on death number two?

find a home address.

In the womb. Hannah's
eight months pregnant.

Does your wife take off from
work like this very often?

Sure. There's always
the doctor's appointment

store she's gotta get to.

anything this morning?

I go when I can.

probably a big mistake,

but we found your wife's business
card in a restroom at a gas station.

out to her clients.

on the mirror.

00:20:34,870 --> 00:20:36,098
What kind of message?
383
00:20:37,606 --> 00:20:40,097
Whoever wrote it claimed that
they were being kidnapped.

Would I be standing here

Yeah. AXD2.

No "X," like in "x-ray."

Yeah. You do that.
390
00:21:04,265 --> 00:21:05,630
So, did he confess yet?
391
00:21:06,501 --> 00:21:09,436
Only that he went
to the high school prom
392
00:21:09,504 --> 00:21:13,031
with some girl named Lorraine,
and she ditched him afterwards.

Carlson, Hannah Mayer's father.

Her husband, Simon,
told him what happened.
397
00:21:28,155 --> 00:21:30,316
What was he doing sailing when
she's pregnant like that?
398
00:21:30,858 --> 00:21:33,224
We're not sure anything happened.
Oh, he killed her.
399
00:21:33,727 --> 00:21:35,922
VAN BUREN: How can you be so sure?
Because he's a jerk.
400
00:21:35,996 --> 00:21:37,793
Always was and always will be.
401
00:21:38,065 --> 00:21:41,159
Believe it or not, Mr. Carlson,
that's not against the law.
402
00:21:41,235 --> 00:21:43,829
He cheated on Hannah. One
time maybe you can forgive.
403
00:21:44,338 --> 00:21:47,796
But when it's a steady diet, that's a
hard pill for a father to take every day.
404
00:21:47,875 --> 00:21:48,875
Let alone a wife.
405
00:21:49,142 --> 00:21:50,837
How do you know?
Hannah told me.
406
00:21:51,044 --> 00:21:52,978
I told her to leave him.
I begged her.
407
00:21:53,780 --> 00:21:55,542
But she thought a baby
would cure everything.
408
00:21:55,648 --> 00:21:57,809
A lot of guys cheat,
Mr. Carlson.
409
00:21:57,884 --> 00:22:01,980
But what you're implying is a big
step from a pit stop at a Motel 6.
410
00:22:02,755 --> 00:22:05,724
What Detective Briscoe means is
that we don't even have a body.
411
00:22:06,692 --> 00:22:09,456
Last week, she finally confronted
him about his affairs.
412
00:22:09,529 --> 00:22:10,689
It led to a big fight.
413
00:22:10,763 --> 00:22:12,025
VAN BUREN: Did he hurt her?
No.
414
00:22:12,865 --> 00:22:14,958
But he did say divorce
was out of the question.
415
00:22:16,002 --> 00:22:19,267
He said he worked too hard to toss
half his money down the toilet.
416
00:22:19,338 --> 00:22:20,396
What kind of husband...
417
00:22:23,876 --> 00:22:24,876
I'm sorry.
418
00:22:25,278 --> 00:22:27,007
We'll get to the
bottom of this, sir.
419
00:22:27,079 --> 00:22:30,014
If your son-in-law has something
to hide, we'll find it.
420
00:22:31,316 --> 00:22:32,510
My daughter's dead.
421
00:22:33,318 --> 00:22:34,318
I know she is.
422
00:22:35,587 --> 00:22:38,078
And I also know that Simon
had something to do with it.
423
00:22:39,190 --> 00:22:41,385
Well, why don't you
just go home now.
424
00:22:42,794 --> 00:22:44,694
And I'll keep you
up-to-date. I promise.
425
00:22:52,704 --> 00:22:54,171
You talked to this Simon guy?
426
00:22:54,606 --> 00:22:57,234
He was cool, until he heard
about the kidnap note.
427
00:22:57,309 --> 00:22:59,334
Then he turned on
the concern. Right on cue.
428
00:23:00,378 --> 00:23:01,606
Talk to people who know him.
429
00:23:06,850 --> 00:23:11,014
Simon is great to work for. He makes
you feel like you're part of the team,
430
00:23:11,088 --> 00:23:14,717
not just somebody taking
messages and getting coffee.
431
00:23:14,858 --> 00:23:17,759
I'm lucky if my accountant
remembers to file my return.
432
00:23:17,828 --> 00:23:20,820
I'm not the only one. Everyone
here feels the same way.
433
00:23:21,098 --> 00:23:22,429
Ask them.
We will.
434
00:23:22,499 --> 00:23:23,932
Simon ever talk about his wife?
435
00:23:24,001 --> 00:23:26,265
Sure. He couldn't wait
for the baby.
436
00:23:26,804 --> 00:23:30,001
Most women around here would give their
firstborn for a husband like Simon.
437
00:23:30,374 --> 00:23:32,672
You know, he called me.
He told me what's going on.
438
00:23:33,944 --> 00:23:36,071
If you could hear
the panic in his voice.
439
00:23:36,146 --> 00:23:37,170
ED: Let me ask you
something, Helen.
440
00:23:37,247 --> 00:23:39,511
Do you log Mr. Mayer's outgoing
and incoming phone calls?
441
00:23:39,583 --> 00:23:40,583
Of course.
442
00:23:44,621 --> 00:23:45,952
This is from last week.
443
00:23:49,559 --> 00:23:52,119
He sends Hannah flowers on
the 5th of every month.
444
00:23:53,463 --> 00:23:55,124
They were married
on December 5th.
445
00:23:55,632 --> 00:23:57,224
Another thing
I should have thought of.
446
00:23:57,300 --> 00:24:01,634
There's a dozen or so phone calls
to or from a Sandra Chapple.
447
00:24:01,704 --> 00:24:03,064
Is she in some
kind of tax trouble?
448
00:24:03,573 --> 00:24:05,040
She's not one of our clients.
449
00:24:05,108 --> 00:24:07,702
BRISCOE: So that makes her, what?
A friend.
450
00:24:08,177 --> 00:24:09,497
You mind printing this
out for us?
451
00:24:12,115 --> 00:24:14,549
I met Simon at a
Democratic fundraiser.
452
00:24:14,617 --> 00:24:17,711
He was generous with his
support and we became friends.
453
00:24:17,787 --> 00:24:20,721
Just how far did his
generous support extend?
454
00:24:21,323 --> 00:24:22,688
Is that supposed to be cute?
455
00:24:23,592 --> 00:24:27,585
We were phone buddies, you know,
an occasional drink sometimes.
456
00:24:28,030 --> 00:24:30,328
Sometimes he'd give me
names of potential donors.
457
00:24:30,932 --> 00:24:32,058
Not everything is sordid.
458
00:24:32,134 --> 00:24:35,262
My partner's mind is generally flowing
through the sewer. Forgive him.
459
00:24:35,337 --> 00:24:37,066
Yeah. Well, I guess that's
a good thing for a cop.
460
00:24:37,139 --> 00:24:38,936
Especially when a citizen
goes missing.
461
00:24:41,443 --> 00:24:42,443
Simon?
462
00:24:42,911 --> 00:24:43,911
His wife.
463
00:24:44,379 --> 00:24:45,846
And her father is convinced
she's been murdered.
464
00:24:46,248 --> 00:24:47,715
And guess who he thinks did it?
465
00:24:49,584 --> 00:24:52,451
That stupid bastard.
I warned him.
466
00:24:52,754 --> 00:24:55,847
Oh, is that what friends do, they
warn you not to kill your wife?
467
00:24:57,958 --> 00:24:59,949
Listen, I started
seeing him three months ago.
468
00:25:00,828 --> 00:25:05,026
A couple of times a week. There's this suite
that his firm keeps at a midtown hotel.
469
00:25:05,299 --> 00:25:06,527
Accountants? Who knew?
470
00:25:06,600 --> 00:25:08,363
ED: Was it serious?
Not to me.
471
00:25:08,736 --> 00:25:11,728
I don't need serious. He was
just something to do for now.
472
00:25:12,440 --> 00:25:15,876
To tell you the truth, I got tired
of the studs in the weight room.
473
00:25:16,410 --> 00:25:17,934
Simon ever talk about his wife?
474
00:25:18,012 --> 00:25:21,470
Just to say how wonderful his life would
be once he got out of the marriage.
475
00:25:21,782 --> 00:25:24,751
Doesn't sound like he was too
thrilled about the baby arriving.
476
00:25:24,819 --> 00:25:27,617
Well, he didn't want to have a baby.
He told me it was a mistake.
477
00:25:27,688 --> 00:25:30,713
That was the real reason that
he wanted out of the marriage.
478
00:25:33,259 --> 00:25:34,692
My wife's name is Hannah Mayer.
479
00:25:34,761 --> 00:25:36,991
She's 31 years old and she's
eight months pregnant.
480
00:25:38,398 --> 00:25:42,357
Again, I'm offering $100,000
to anyone with information
481
00:25:42,435 --> 00:25:43,925
that leads the police to her.
482
00:25:46,573 --> 00:25:48,006
Damn. He's good.
I'll give him that.
483
00:25:48,241 --> 00:25:51,281
If I didn't know different, I'd think the
son of a bitch actually gave a damn.
484
00:25:51,544 --> 00:25:53,068
I'll grant you
he's not a Boy Scout,
485
00:25:53,146 --> 00:25:55,080
but the girlfriends
of married men
486
00:25:55,148 --> 00:25:57,048
aren't the most truthful
people in the world.
487

You think she was lying?
488
00:25:58,685 --> 00:26:02,382
Okay. And married men aren't that
truthful with their girlfriends.
489
00:26:02,455 --> 00:26:04,389
Spoken like a man
who's been on both sides.

Well, guilty or no, we've got
nothing to arrest him on.

I swear. I didn't
kill Anna. It was him.
496
00:26:20,672 --> 00:26:21,969
He wants you to think it was me.
497
00:26:22,040 --> 00:26:23,940
Who are we talking about?
My brother, Renaldo.
498
00:26:24,009 --> 00:26:27,843
He just got out ofjail. They
paroled him, and he killed Anna.
499
00:26:27,913 --> 00:26:30,541
He wants you to think it was me,
and he's coming to kill me.
500
00:26:30,616 --> 00:26:32,311
All right. All right.
It's okay.
501
00:26:32,851 --> 00:26:34,091
I can't say I blame his brother.
502
00:26:34,153 --> 00:26:36,417
I've known Rafael less than a
day, and I'm ready to kill him.
503
00:26:36,488 --> 00:26:39,582
Well, if his brother just got out
ofjail, someone knows where he is.
504
00:26:40,993 --> 00:26:41,993
ED: It's okay.
505
00:26:42,127 --> 00:26:45,323
Renaldo Celaya? Yeah, sure,
he's one of my parolees.
506
00:26:45,429 --> 00:26:49,456
Been out, what, maybe five, six days.
After ten long years.
507
00:26:49,534 --> 00:26:51,695
That's not bad for murder.
Ah, manslaughter.
508
00:26:51,769 --> 00:26:54,067
He whacked his wife, only
they never found the body.
509
00:26:54,172 --> 00:26:57,141
Dead wife, missing body. Where
have I heard this before?
510
00:26:57,208 --> 00:26:59,608
Man, it's been a rough day.
Yeah. Tell me about it.
511
00:26:59,677 --> 00:27:03,738
Anyway, all he ever talks about
is Marcela, Marcela, Marcela.
512
00:27:03,815 --> 00:27:05,874
Wait. His wife's name
was Marcela?
513
00:27:06,350 --> 00:27:07,408
Why would I lie?
514
00:27:07,485 --> 00:27:09,510
Anna's using
her sister-in-law's name.
515
00:27:09,587 --> 00:27:11,111
Where can we find Renaldo?
516
00:27:13,224 --> 00:27:15,385
Hey, bro. Is there a
Renaldo working here?
517
00:27:16,394 --> 00:27:17,554
Renaldo Celaya?
518
00:27:19,462 --> 00:27:20,520

I don't suppose you agree with that?

I need a plea. Did you do it?
Yes.
547

I don't think my client
understands, Your Honor.
548
00:29:03,831 --> 00:29:06,163
I understand perfectly.
I killed the S.O.B.
549

She's obviously
mentally disturbed.

we take this from the top?

I'm not supposed to express
personal opinions in the courtroom,
558
00:29:27,988 --> 00:29:31,446
but I've got to tell you, Mrs. Porazzo,
you make me proud to be an American.

560
00:29:32,626 --> 00:29:34,617
Cheating on you, was he?
Yeah.
561
00:29:34,695 --> 00:29:37,823
But I could live with that. I
could live with his perversions.
562
00:29:38,298 --> 00:29:40,095
But I won't go under
the knife for anyone.
563
00:29:41,301 --> 00:29:43,300
These were good enough
for him when we got married.

JACK: Let me get
this straight, Mr. Celaya.
565
00:29:47,106 --> 00:29:49,700
You admit you killed Anna Briseno?
That's right.
566
00:29:49,809 --> 00:29:51,709
Only her real name is Marcela.
567
00:29:51,777 --> 00:29:54,337
But you still claim you're not guilty?
That's right.
568
00:29:55,147 --> 00:29:56,808
That's what philosophers
call a conundrum.
569
00:29:57,350 --> 00:29:59,875
It's what lawyers call
a screwball defense.
570
00:29:59,952 --> 00:30:01,952
CLEMENS: Not when you hear
all the facts, it's not.
571
00:30:02,054 --> 00:30:04,147
The facts are, he killed
his brother's wife.
572
00:30:04,223 --> 00:30:06,248
She was not his wife.
She was my wife.
573
00:30:07,927 --> 00:30:09,918
Your brother married your wife?
That's right.
574
00:30:10,529 --> 00:30:12,656
She must have divorced you
while you were in prison.
575
00:30:13,132 --> 00:30:14,895
No. She couldn't divorce me.
576
00:30:15,368 --> 00:30:16,926
Dead people can't file papers.
577
00:30:18,070 --> 00:30:20,435
Your wife was dead?
That's right.
578
00:30:20,805 --> 00:30:22,932
And I should know.
I killed her.
579
00:30:25,176 --> 00:30:26,176
Who's on first?
580
00:30:27,278 --> 00:30:29,712
Only I killed her now.
Not ten years ago.
581
00:30:30,615 --> 00:30:32,815
Maybe I should explain. Renaldo
was charged and convicted
582
00:30:32,817 --> 00:30:34,409
ten years ago
of killing his wife.
583
00:30:34,486 --> 00:30:35,919
The problem was,
she wasn't dead.
584
00:30:36,421 --> 00:30:39,652
She just ran off. RENALDO: And
now you can't do nothing to me.
585
00:30:40,258 --> 00:30:41,748
What's it called?
Double jeopardy.
586
00:30:42,060 --> 00:30:45,154
That's when you can't be charged
for killing the same wife twice.
587
00:30:46,097 --> 00:30:47,337
You gotta love the Constitution.
588
00:30:48,066 --> 00:30:50,057
That isn't what the
Constitution had in mind.
589
00:30:50,335 --> 00:30:52,633
Okay, then. Stick me
in a courtroom again.
590
00:30:53,071 --> 00:30:54,271
If it's not the Double J thing,
591
00:30:54,272 --> 00:30:56,711
then that means I didn't kill my
wife back when you said I did.
592
00:30:57,241 --> 00:30:59,436
That means I did time
for no crime.
593
00:30:59,943 --> 00:31:01,706
Leaves me free to sue you,
594
00:31:01,779 --> 00:31:05,408
your boss, the Governor, and
anybody else I can think of
595
00:31:05,482 --> 00:31:06,744
for false imprisonment.
596
00:31:07,384 --> 00:31:09,944
My client spent a lot of time
reading at state expense.
597
00:31:10,421 --> 00:31:12,221
I'll give you both
some time to think it over.
598
00:31:12,756 --> 00:31:14,018
See how you want to handle it.
599
00:31:14,091 --> 00:31:17,458
That's right. We the ones
giving out the time now.
600
00:31:20,898 --> 00:31:22,695
It's a law school exam,
is what it is.
601
00:31:22,766 --> 00:31:24,766
And to tell you the truth,
I don't know the answer.
602
00:31:24,802 --> 00:31:26,099
Same crime, same victim.
603
00:31:27,471 --> 00:31:31,167
They can't be the same crime if
they occurred ten years apart.
604
00:31:31,674 --> 00:31:34,234
So you're saying if someone was acquitted
for robbing a bank on Tuesday,
605
00:31:34,310 --> 00:31:36,540
but then we found out it
actually happened on Thursday,
606
00:31:36,612 --> 00:31:38,580
you'd say that double
jeopardy doesn't apply?
607
00:31:39,549 --> 00:31:41,540
I'll argue statutory intent.
608
00:31:41,617 --> 00:31:42,982
You expect a jury to buy that?
609
00:31:43,553 --> 00:31:44,753
It's a question for the judge.
610
00:31:45,154 --> 00:31:46,587
You expect a judge to buy that?
611
00:31:46,656 --> 00:31:47,748
He killed someone, Arthur.
612
00:31:48,257 --> 00:31:49,690
And he already did
the time for it.
613
00:31:49,759 --> 00:31:53,024
I'm not just going to put my tail
between my legs. I'm not asking you to.
614
00:31:53,429 --> 00:31:55,659
I'm just thinking if we can keep
this disaster out of a courtroom,
615
00:31:55,731 --> 00:31:57,198
we might all be better off.
616
00:31:58,334 --> 00:32:00,825
Now if you can't charge
straight on, attack the flanks.
617
00:32:00,903 --> 00:32:03,394
This false imprisonment
charge is his leverage.
618
00:32:03,473 --> 00:32:06,373
You get rid of it, he's more
likely to sit at a table with us.
619
00:32:06,441 --> 00:32:10,400
False imprisonment requires malicious
intent and l or extreme negligence.
620
00:32:10,479 --> 00:32:12,413
Find some proof that
there wasn't any of either.
621
00:32:16,618 --> 00:32:18,279
Ten years.
That's a long time.
622
00:32:18,353 --> 00:32:20,218
That's like 400 murders ago.
623
00:32:20,655 --> 00:32:22,179
So, you don't
remember it at all?
624
00:32:22,257 --> 00:32:25,021
They say you never forget the ones you win.
That's a crock.
625
00:32:25,494 --> 00:32:28,258
They're gone as soon as the next
slime-bucket walks in your office.
626
00:32:28,563 --> 00:32:30,963
Oh, here we go.
Renaldo Celaya. Man one.
627
00:32:32,567 --> 00:32:33,567
That's right.
628
00:32:34,903 --> 00:32:36,165
We tried it without a body.
629
00:32:36,838 --> 00:32:39,038
No offense, but how did you
know there was a body at all?
630
00:32:39,508 --> 00:32:42,476
Marcela had a sister,
Leticia, lived in San Juan.
631
00:32:42,543 --> 00:32:45,478
She reported her missing, and that
kick-started the investigation.
632
00:32:45,880 --> 00:32:48,144
And Renaldo was the only suspect?
One and only.
633
00:32:48,749 --> 00:32:51,411
Leticia told us Marcela told
her she was having an affair.
634
00:32:51,619 --> 00:32:53,484
With whom?
That we never found out.
635
00:32:54,221 --> 00:32:56,621
Anyway, we figured Renaldo got
wind of the affair and snapped.
636
00:32:56,957 --> 00:32:58,515
That doesn't sound
like much of a case.
637
00:32:58,893 --> 00:33:03,592
Neighbors testified that Renaldo and Marcela's
marriage on a good day was volatile,
638
00:33:03,664 --> 00:33:05,291
and I use that word generously.
639
00:33:05,733 --> 00:33:07,758
He was a puncher.
What was his defense?
640
00:33:07,935 --> 00:33:12,804
That she was his wife. He had a witness,
too. Here it is, Patricia Botten.
641
00:33:13,707 --> 00:33:16,972
And she said he was an angel? Well,
she might have, if she showed up.
642
00:33:19,712 --> 00:33:21,737
Sure, I know Patricia.
Who wouldn't?
643
00:33:22,348 --> 00:33:25,215
I mean, that babe's
got a butt to kill for.
644
00:33:25,752 --> 00:33:27,743
Nice choice of words.
You know where she works at?
645
00:33:27,820 --> 00:33:28,980
Uh-uh.
646
00:33:29,055 --> 00:33:30,647
What about what time
she gets home?
647
00:33:31,791 --> 00:33:34,231
Do you really want to talk to her, huh?
Yeah. It looks like it.
648
00:33:34,761 --> 00:33:35,761
Then talk.
649
00:33:37,163 --> 00:33:40,621
Hey, yo! Patricia!
Patricia Botten.
650
00:33:41,768 --> 00:33:43,030
Oh! Damn, woman!
Hey, hey, hey!
651
00:33:43,603 --> 00:33:44,831
What I do?
652
00:33:45,271 --> 00:33:47,151
(SIGHS) Nothing. Until
you hit a police officer.
653
00:33:47,207 --> 00:33:48,868
I thought he was a mugger.
654
00:33:48,942 --> 00:33:52,503
Why don't you chase down the real hoods instead
of sneaking up on tax-paying citizens?
655
00:33:52,579 --> 00:33:53,807
You got a hell of a punch.
656
00:33:54,080 --> 00:33:55,273
I box at the Y.
657
00:33:55,714 --> 00:33:59,343
Patricia, we need to ask you some
questions about Renaldo Celaya.
658
00:33:59,851 --> 00:34:00,851
Who?
659
00:34:01,019 --> 00:34:04,182
The boyfriend you were supposed
to back up at his murder trial.
660
00:34:04,856 --> 00:34:05,936
I don't know what you mean.
661
00:34:06,525 --> 00:34:08,205
Hey, you want me
to forget about the punch?
662
00:34:11,396 --> 00:34:13,921
I wanted to go to court.
My husband told me not to.
663
00:34:13,999 --> 00:34:15,057
BRISCOE: Why's that?
664
00:34:15,133 --> 00:34:16,998
Men and
their stupid macho thing.
665
00:34:17,069 --> 00:34:19,230
He didn't want people to
know I was seeing Renaldo.
666
00:34:19,304 --> 00:34:22,137
You were cheating on
your husband with Renaldo,
667
00:34:22,207 --> 00:34:25,335
and Marcela was cheating on Renaldo with
somebody else. Am I getting this right?
668
00:34:25,944 --> 00:34:28,412
Happens all the time.
At least around here.
669
00:34:28,480 --> 00:34:31,141
And all this time I've been living
in the wrong housing complex.
670
00:34:31,649 --> 00:34:34,675
Renaldo would never kill Marcela over
me, if that's where you're going.
671
00:34:34,819 --> 00:34:36,650
He knew up front
I would never leave Paco,
672
00:34:36,721 --> 00:34:39,087
and he could care less if she was
getting some outside the house.
673
00:34:39,156 --> 00:34:41,420
ED: How do you know?
He told me, that's how.
674
00:34:42,426 --> 00:34:43,552
We okay on the punch?
675
00:34:44,862 --> 00:34:46,022
Uh-huh.
676
00:34:51,602 --> 00:34:54,036
Now if he didn't want to
kill her ten years ago,
677
00:34:54,105 --> 00:34:55,504
why would he kill her now?
678
00:34:55,573 --> 00:34:58,201
Oh, it could have something to do with
the ten years he spent in the can
679
00:34:58,276 --> 00:34:59,709
because she didn't come forward.
680
00:35:00,678 --> 00:35:02,703
I wonder if Renaldo
likes barbecued pork.
681
00:35:06,117 --> 00:35:08,448
This must be one hell of a
broad, all this attention.
682
00:35:08,818 --> 00:35:10,843
Oh, yeah. The deader they
are, the more we care.
683
00:35:10,920 --> 00:35:12,920
This the guy that was pacing
around here last night?
684
00:35:13,556 --> 00:35:18,084
Close, but no. The guy was a little
younger, long hair, thin like a wire.
685
00:35:18,161 --> 00:35:20,322
High-strung, quick to snap,
nervous type?
686
00:35:20,397 --> 00:35:21,489
Yeah. That's right.
687
00:35:21,564 --> 00:35:24,692
He had a boxer's body, but shaky
hands, like he drank a lot.
688
00:35:24,768 --> 00:35:26,258
That sounds like Rafael to me.
689
00:35:26,336 --> 00:35:29,464
Yeah. You gotta love those Celaya boys.
Thank you, Papi.
690
00:35:31,308 --> 00:35:33,242
Why do you guys
keep coming after me?
691
00:35:33,310 --> 00:35:35,870
You got the man that killed my Anna.
What more do you want?
692
00:35:36,579 --> 00:35:39,742
Was it Cain who slept with Abel's
wife, or the other way around?
693
00:35:39,816 --> 00:35:41,909
I forget.
Renaldo was in jail.
694
00:35:41,985 --> 00:35:45,385
Yeah, and Anna, or should I say
Marcela, was already dead.
695
00:35:46,488 --> 00:35:49,286
He never treated her good.
She loved me.
696
00:35:49,758 --> 00:35:51,692
ED: So why'd you kill her?
You're crazy.
697
00:35:52,061 --> 00:35:53,528
Renaldo already said he did it.
698
00:35:53,595 --> 00:35:56,655
Yeah, but you're the one who
lied about being at work
699
00:35:56,732 --> 00:35:59,724
and you had barbecue with your
wife just before she died,
700
00:35:59,802 --> 00:36:02,566
so that makes us think that
you're the one who popped her.
701
00:36:02,638 --> 00:36:04,833
That's a great plan.
You kill your wife,
702
00:36:04,907 --> 00:36:06,670
only big brother takes the fall.
703
00:36:07,076 --> 00:36:11,945
Except he's untouchable, so the two of you
walk off hand-in-hand into the sunset,
704
00:36:12,014 --> 00:36:15,381
but double jeopardy sure as
hell doesn't apply to you.
705
00:36:19,921 --> 00:36:21,388
She was an evil woman, you know.
706
00:36:22,290 --> 00:36:25,054
She was married to Renaldo
and she was cheating on him.
707
00:36:25,159 --> 00:36:26,159
With you!
708
00:36:26,427 --> 00:36:28,347
She cheated on him, she'd
cheat on me soon enough.
709
00:36:28,629 --> 00:36:31,655
You guys are weird, Rafael, but it's
hard to believe you're that weird.
710
00:36:32,100 --> 00:36:35,968
When Renaldo got out, we took a drive
out to Newark where we grew up,
711
00:36:36,037 --> 00:36:38,403
and I thought he was gonna kill me.
I told him to.
712
00:36:39,107 --> 00:36:40,699
I was so guilty.
713
00:36:41,776 --> 00:36:47,112
But blood is blood, he said, and
Marcela, she'll never be blood.
714
00:36:48,683 --> 00:36:51,208
I had to do it. For Renaldo.
715
00:36:54,488 --> 00:36:56,128
You got a lawyer
you want us to call, man?
716
00:36:56,790 --> 00:37:01,090
All those years when Renaldo was away,
I looked out my window, out at Newark,
717
00:37:02,028 --> 00:37:03,518
and I wished
we never left Jersey.
718
00:37:05,399 --> 00:37:07,094
It's this city
that makes you go bad.
719
00:37:08,368 --> 00:37:09,767
Jersey. Damn.
720
00:37:14,441 --> 00:37:15,806
I say something wrong?
721
00:37:17,210 --> 00:37:21,909
AXD2. Right. You're an angel.
You got an address?
722
00:37:23,183 --> 00:37:24,548
Thank you.
723
00:37:25,552 --> 00:37:26,849
Don't get too comfortable.
724
00:37:26,920 --> 00:37:29,320
That gas station where Hannah
Mayer left the message
725
00:37:29,389 --> 00:37:33,051
is near the West Side Highway,
which leads to the Holland Tunnel,
726
00:37:33,125 --> 00:37:34,990
which takes you
across the river.
727
00:37:35,060 --> 00:37:37,654
New Jersey DMV
had a read on the plates.
728
00:37:39,365 --> 00:37:40,764
(KNOCKING ON DOOR)
729
00:37:41,333 --> 00:37:44,234
New York City Police.
Hurry! Please, God, hurry!
730
00:37:44,303 --> 00:37:45,395
She's upstairs.
731
00:37:45,471 --> 00:37:47,200
(WOMAN SCREAMING)
732
00:37:52,545 --> 00:37:55,605
OFFICER: I need a bus at 984 Meade.
Repeat, 984 Meade.
733
00:37:55,681 --> 00:37:58,275
You ever do this before? Hey,
man, you're the one with kids.
734
00:37:58,818 --> 00:38:02,049
All right. Bring me some clean
towels and boil some water.
735
00:38:02,154 --> 00:38:03,280
Doctors really do that?
736
00:38:03,355 --> 00:38:05,220
George Clooney does.
That's good enough for me.
737
00:38:06,357 --> 00:38:07,847
(SCREAMING)
738
00:38:11,095 --> 00:38:13,359
So, was this about money?
739
00:38:14,399 --> 00:38:17,459
I don't need money.
Why would you say that?
740
00:38:17,735 --> 00:38:19,965
Well, because that's what
most kidnappers are after.
741
00:38:20,772 --> 00:38:21,772
A little girl.
742
00:38:23,074 --> 00:38:24,371
It was a miracle.
743
00:38:25,543 --> 00:38:26,567
You're a hero.
744
00:38:28,346 --> 00:38:31,645
Believe it or not, she could have
done it on her own. It's natural.
745
00:38:32,951 --> 00:38:34,248
For everyone but me.
746
00:38:36,855 --> 00:38:39,551
You know, she could have died. No.
I wasn't going to hurt her.
747
00:38:41,226 --> 00:38:43,989
Hannah has no idea
how blessed she is.
748
00:38:44,361 --> 00:38:47,728
You and Hannah are friends? We met at Dr.
Furman's office. This morning.
749
00:38:48,465 --> 00:38:49,898
He was the sixth doctor
I'd been to.
750
00:38:51,602 --> 00:38:53,092
So, you can't have children?
751
00:38:54,972 --> 00:38:56,405
It's all I ever wanted.
752
00:38:58,475 --> 00:39:00,102
Babies are God's gift.
753
00:39:01,078 --> 00:39:03,774
I'll bet you Hannah thinks the same thing.
She could have others!
754
00:39:08,919 --> 00:39:10,181
It's not fair.
755
00:39:15,626 --> 00:39:19,186
She couldn't have one of her own, so
she figured she'd take someone else's?
756
00:39:19,262 --> 00:39:21,253
It worked for Tony B.
ED: Who's that?
757
00:39:21,631 --> 00:39:23,121
He took my bike when I was 12.
758
00:39:25,167 --> 00:39:26,657
From Hannah Mayer's husband.
759
00:39:27,703 --> 00:39:30,638
(EXCLAIMS) I was looking
forward to arresting him.
760
00:39:30,706 --> 00:39:31,706
Good night.
761
00:39:34,844 --> 00:39:37,278
Man, three murders and a baby.
762
00:39:37,346 --> 00:39:39,246
If you drank,
I'd buy you a beer.
763
00:39:39,315 --> 00:39:41,681
Hey, I drink seltzer,
and I'm buying.
764
00:39:43,319 --> 00:39:44,547
(PHONE RINGING)
765
00:39:46,656 --> 00:39:48,317
No law says
you have to answer that.
766
00:39:52,461 --> 00:39:53,461
Yeah.
767
00:39:56,698 --> 00:39:58,290
All right. All right.
We'll be there.
768
00:39:59,034 --> 00:40:01,025
What?
Make that four murders.
769
00:40:01,570 --> 00:40:03,902
Remember Andy the jogger?
The heart attack?
770
00:40:04,306 --> 00:40:05,637
Man, life should be so easy.
771
00:40:06,841 --> 00:40:09,469
When last we saw him,
it was a faulty ticker.
772
00:40:09,544 --> 00:40:10,943
(SIGHS) He's got
a runner's heart.
773
00:40:11,012 --> 00:40:13,173
Even dead, I'd bet it's in
better shape than most.
774
00:40:13,281 --> 00:40:15,249
So why are we here?
Nicotine.
775
00:40:15,317 --> 00:40:16,477
The guy smoked and ran?
776
00:40:16,551 --> 00:40:20,112
No. His lungs were as pink as a baby's.
The nicotine was ingested.
777
00:40:20,188 --> 00:40:24,386
Pure nicotine kills. And, guess what,
it looks just like a heart attack.
778
00:40:28,563 --> 00:40:30,553
He was only 42 years old.
779
00:40:31,031 --> 00:40:34,967
We swore we were gonna spend the rest of
our lives together. I never thought...
780
00:40:36,303 --> 00:40:37,583
It was a heart attack,
wasn't it?
781
00:40:38,973 --> 00:40:40,440
Yeah, probably.
782
00:40:42,843 --> 00:40:44,970
So why are you guys...
It's just part of the drill.
783
00:40:46,747 --> 00:40:47,747
Sure.
784
00:40:48,382 --> 00:40:49,782
How long did you guys
live together?

00:40:55,589 --> 00:40:56,589
I'm sorry.

That bastard!

I know that.

I'm gay, I'm not stupid.
I know why you're here.
790
00:41:07,166 --> 00:41:08,531

that was one hell of an act.

Oh, those tears
are real all right.

After everything I went
through to get rid of him,
797
00:41:23,149 --> 00:41:28,314
now Andy's lawyer tells me that the State
of New York won't recognize our marriage.
798
00:41:28,388 --> 00:41:30,083
Why couldn't I have
killed him in Hawaii?
799

I'm out the insurance. I lose the lease
on this loft because it's in Andy's name.

to remain silent. Please.
