MAN: Place your bet. Wheel turns.
No more bets, please. No more bets.
WOMAN: Look at that. WOMAN: Oh, look at that.
MAN: Hit me, right? No, stick.
Stick? I have 14.
Stick. Stick. You just told Eleanor to take a card
and she had 18.
Trust me on this one. Just stick.
Oh, Saul, stop being so paranoid.
She's not trying to cheat you out of cookies.
Besides, they're not good for your blood sugar, right?
My blood sugar is just fine.
Oh, really? It's fine?
This morning, it was 223.
Yesterday, it was 220, 245, 262 and 250.
That's not so fine, Mr. Wanamaker.
Got ya.
Hey, thought you were starting your new job today.
Shh. She's concentrating.
She's counting cards.
Hey, don't be such a sore loser, Keith.
Hey, did you say anything?
No, not yet.
21! Blackjack!
Blackjack!
(phone ringing)
I got to take this.
Okay, I'll be right there.
(sirens wailing)
(indistinct radio communication)
MAN: Excuse me, Miss, can I help you?
I'm with Homicide. Sure you are.
She's with me.
This isn't Syracuse.
People sort of dress the part around here.
I told you I don't do pantsuits.
How's your mom? She's good.
You should come by and see her sometime.
She always liked you. I don't exactly remember it that way.
So...
what do we got?
A couple-- Joel and Ann Seiferth,
each took one to the head and chest in their kitchen.
Who called it in? Woman who works for the husband.
Came by when he didn't show.
Nina got her statement. Hey, Mike.
Detective.
Any witnesses?
It's Forest Hills. Everyone's at work
trying to pay off their big houses.
Or fix 'em up.
Looks like they're doing construction.
(camera shutter clicking)
The ghost whisperer finally showed.
That mean we can go home now?
So where we at? Well, M.E. puts time of death about two hours ago.
We spoke to the security company.
The alarm system was off and no evidence of forced entry.
So maybe someone they knew?
NINA: Could be the construction crew.
They usually get a key. Lunchtime.
ROE: Middle of the day--
the door could have been unlocked.
And definitely signs of a struggle.
Husband's got a bruise on his cheek.
And check this-- no jewelry and all the TV's are gone.
Got tech. Cell phone.
Okay, bag the hands. Get 'em over to the lab.
If the husband tried to fight off the killer,
we may be able to get some DNA.
Where's the kid?
Oh, Max Seiferth, seven years old.
The schedule on the fridge says he had T-ball today.
Children's Services is on it.
That's a kid who's going to hate baseball.
Okay, let's start with anyone who's had access to the house.
Day laborers, plumbers, nannies, housekeepers.
And let's talk to the kid.
(indistinct background radio communication)
Oh, here we go again.
What is it, Carrie?
MAN (distorted, over radio): Copy that, Dispatch...
10779 Essex.
Copy that, Dispatch. 10779 Essex...
The tarp.
It moved.
(whispering): Wait a second-- wait right here.
Max?
I don't think he's at T-ball.
Hey, it's okay.
Joel and Ann Seiferth. She was an anesthesiologist
at St. Michael's and Joel owned a string of Gym Bams.
Who would want to kill a Gym Bam guy? A what?
It's a kids' gym.
You know, ball pits, trampolines, and...
My sister does parties for the twins.
AL: What do we have on the gun?
Uh, nine millimeter.
Ballistics are pending. No prints yet.
DNA? Doesn't look like we got any.
AL: What about access to the house?
I talked to the contractor, and we're still trying
to run down some of the day laborers,
but he said they haven't been there in over six months.
Said the family just ran out of money,
put the whole thing on hold.
How does an anesthesiologist run out of money?
Aren't those guys loaded?
Not if they're not working.
I spoke to HR over at St. Mike's.
Ann's been on leave for almost eight months.
What about Max?
Anything new?
According to his school, he was home sick.
He's got two living relatives-- an aunt and an uncle.
Ann's sister Liza, her husband Erik.
She's on her way in, he's out of town.
We know if he saw anything?
He's in shock. Hasn't said a word.
Either way, let's keep this low.
No one needs to know there might be a witness.
Okay, Mike, get on the financials.
If money was tight, let's find out
how tight.
Nina, Roe, check out St. Michael's.
ROE: I'm on it, Al.
I'm going to go talk to Max.
You sure?
Yeah. I'm fine.
("Three Blind Mice" playing over TV)
Carrie, whatever happened to your sister?
You can tell us. It's okay.
Let's get her some more juice.
("Three Stooges" playing on TV) MOE: Get out of the way.
Today we got raw oyster stew.
What'd you have?
CURLY: Oyster stew?
Hey, Max.
I'm going to sit down next to you, if that's okay.
(Curly yelling)
Oh, you should watch this part.
It's funny. It's when steam comes out his... ears.
Actually, it's not really that funny.
And you don't have to watch this just because they put it on.
You can watch anything you like.
Um... What time is it? 3:47.
You could watch Phineas and Ferb.
You could watch Naruto.
You could watch Bakugan.
No wait, Bakugan's on at 4:30.
You're right.
You have any video games?
Uh, what kind of video games do you like?
Angry Birds.
Smack Talk.
Smack Talk?
Wow, Smack Talk, that's um... What is that?
There's a hamster named Smack.
He records what you say.
Makes you sound weird.
Huh.
That sounds cool.
My mom lets me play when I'm sick.
(door opening)
Hi, Max.
I'm Elaine.
I'm Dr. Margulies,
with Children's Services.
Oh, uh, Carrie Wells.
Hello.
Hi.
So, Max and I, we were just talking about video games.
Right, Max?
Really?
Um, Detective,
can I talk to you for a minute?
Could we get him some more juice?
I'll be right back, okay?
You know, I was just getting him to open up in there, and...
Look, I know you're new here.
Let me start over.
Um, I'm Elaine.
You know, Al's Elaine.
Oh. Yeah.
Well, it's nice to meet you, Elaine.
You, too.
So anyway, um, I'm sure that you did things very differently in Syracuse,
but here, we prefer to have a mental health professional
present during interviews with small children.
Okay. Sorry.
No, it's okay. It's been ten years.
Nine, actually, but you know, who's counting.
Sorry.
No, it's... Hey, a lot has changed, I'm sure.
And, uh, and you just got here.
Which Al is so happy about.
Oh... Hi.
You two have met. Good.
I didn't realize the rotation was off,
with the long weekend. So...
Apparently, I've already broken a rule, but now I know.
You know, tell me once, I never forget.
So I've heard. Oh.
I'm Max's aunt. Where is he?
He's... He's right in here.
He's being very quiet,
but he's okay. I'll take you in.
Yeah. I didn't realize.
I really didn't. What?
That she was on the case.
There are ten psychologists... Al, it's fine.
I understand you have a girlfriend.
I just didn't realize she was a shrink. I know what you're thinking.
What? That "psychology's a waste of time and money
"and research proves that talking about your feelings
doesn't make you feel any better"?
Okay, no quoting me on the job.
Wow, so many rules here.
And by the way, I agree with you.
Shrinks never did me any good.
I'm not in it for the free therapy.
Want to know why the wife wasn't working?
Wrongful death lawsuit:
19-year-old kid went in for routine surgery
and never woke up. Seiferth was supervising.
It wasn't Ann's fault.
The patient had an atypical anaphylaxis.
It's a rare allergic response to anesthesia.
The body goes into shock.
Completely unforeseeable.
But the hospital didn't see it that way.
I tried convincing them.
As head of the department, I need Ann.
She is one-- was-- one of our best people.
But the patient's family are
longtime supporters of St. Michael's.
They demanded that she be suspended
pending a full internal inquiry.
Crazy thing is, the panel
just came back with their report.
Ann was cleared and planning
to come back next week.
Interesting timing.
I imagine the family must not have been
too happy about that.
Look, right after the surgery,
emotions were... very raw.
In these situations,
families want to blame someone.
What about other people in the hospital?
She have any enemies you know of?
No. Everyone loved her.
Yeah, she's a tough act to follow.
Thanks, guys.
Uh, I don't know if this is anything,
but I keep going back to it.
Ann and I have known each other forever.
We went through residency together.
I was at her wedding.
But in the past few months,
she and Joel started having problems.
He gambled.
Just sports, I think.
I have no idea how bad it was or what he owed, but...
She mention who he owed it to?
No.
God, I wish I had asked.
Okay, thanks. We'll call you back.
Joel was in it up to his ears.
Mostly sports book.
If this is a front for gambling, it's genius.
Yeah. Detective. Hey.
Sorry to bother you at work.
We just have a few more questions.
Olivia's the one who called it in.
When he didn't show up earlier, I just, I knew
that something was wrong.
And I tried to close today,
but we have three birthday parties,
and I just, I couldn't reach everybody
(voice breaks): on my own, and...
Joel would have laughed.
He was all about the kids.
Seems like you really cared about him.
He was an amazing boss.
He'd totally just take you under his wing and...
Did you know about his gambling?
Is that what you think this is about?
Did you ever hear any names of bookies or...?
No! I mean, sometimes, I'd find him in the back, online,
stressing about some team that was losing.
What about payments?
Was he ever late with payroll, vendors, anything like that?
Nothing major.
Business was good.
He'd even open up his gyms
to schools and birthday parties for needy kids.
(video game beeping, trilling)
Tika, honey, we're at a gym.
You're not playing on the phone right now.
But I just want to get to the next level.
OFFICER: Cell phone.
There was a hamster named "Smack."
He records what you say.
(game trilling)
He was home sick that day, right?
Now, he told me that when he's sick,
he's allowed to play with his mother's phone.
Okay.
Okay, we dumped this phone for calls.
But Henry said the last activity on the phone during the time
of the murders was a game called "Smack Talk."
My nephew plays that.
It makes you sound like a gerbil.
A hamster, actually.
Okay, so the question is, in hamster world,
what does this sound like to you?
(three staccato bursts)
Gunshots.
He recorded the murder.
Wait, wait a minute.
But the phone was found downstairs.
Okay, so... so he's upstairs, he's playing Smack Talk,
he hears something going on in the kitchen,
he comes down the stairs to check it out,
sees what he sees,
and in the shock of it, he... drops the phone.
Which is why it was found at the bottom of the stairs.
Where he had a direct view to the kitchen
where the bodies were found.
He kept playing the game the whole time?
No. See, that's the thing.
Smack Talk, you touch the screen,
it records for 45 seconds.
He saw the killer. We gotta talk to him.
Dr. Margulies said they'd prefer to have a psychologist present.
Right. Is that, like, a department thing?
I think it's up to the individual case worker.
Yeah, that's what I thought.
Cool.
Thanks.
(TV playing indistinctly)
Hey, Max.
Do you mind if I, uh,
sit down?
(TV continues playing indistinctly in background)
So I got that game
you were telling me about, Smack Talk.
And it's cool. It's addictive, actually.
Max?
Max, is that the game that you were... playing...?
MAN: I'm home!
(gasps) Liza? Max?
What's going on in here?
(whimpers)
Max? Max? What's going on?
What are you doing here? What happened? Max?
Nothing happened. Relax. He was fine
a few minutes ago.
You just stay away from my nephew.
I was just asking him a few... There's no...
No! No more questions. Look, I...
Get out.
Get out!
(whimpering)
Okay. I'm going.
Al, I'm telling you, when his uncle
walked into the room, Max was terrified.
Except the uncle was on a business trip
at the time of the murder, no?
Three hours away in Hartford.
We're into it, but he could have easily driven back.
How about a motive?
Maybe he borrowed money
from the in-laws, and enough is enough.
Maybe Uncle Erik is actually
the husband's bookie for all we know.
You guys know India's Palace?
Takeout place over on Vernon.
Someone from the victim's house called there
every Friday at 6:45-- I mean, every Friday night.
They like curry?
No, they love to gamble.
Friday night's when you place college sports bets.
I dabble.
What, so, it's like, "I'll take the chicken tandoori
and ten points on Ohio State"?
I've heard stranger.
Roe, take Carrie, check it out.
What?
You dabble.
No, what about the uncle?
Nina and Mike will check him out.
No. Al, listen to me.
This kid, he could be living with his parents' murderer.
And isn't it also possible his parents are dead,
this is the guy he's gonna have to live with now.
He sees him first time since the murder, and he freaks out?
How very Dr. Phil of you, Detective.
Okay, find me something-- a motive maybe, a weapon.
I'm all over it.
Carrie, could you...?
...have said something? No.
These are complex, difficult situations.
Which is why you should have waited...
...waited for Elaine?
She asked to be present at every interview.
That's because she doesn't trust me.
Oh, that...
That's because she's determined that she's dealing with
an unstable detective who's so messed up
by a past trauma, that she would detonate
the first chance she gets.
She never used the word "detonate."
Ah.
All right, truth:
What'd you tell her about me?
What? Nothing. Hmm.
Okay, maybe I might have said
something about your paranoid persecution fantasies.
Huh.
And, oh, yeah, she knows about
that time at the bus station.
Al, I'm telling you I saw that kid.
When his uncle walked in the room,
he acted like he was afraid for his life.
I'm not making this up because my sister was killed. I'm not.
Okay, look, we'll stay on the uncle.
No more unannounced visits to Max.
Fine, fine.
And, um, it was a train station in Utica
in a phone booth.
Remember those?
(Indian accent): Do I look like a guy who knows his sports?
I am from India.
Ever hear of Jimmy the Greek?
He was from Ohio.
And you're from Jackson Heights.
Why was Joe Seiferth calling here every Friday?
(American accent): He liked my parents' food.
Okay, so if you don't do sports book,
I guess you got no interest
in a tip on the Alabama-Florida game.
What do you know about football?
Alabama, total yards per game versus AP teams,
221 versus BCS-ranked teams, 167.2.
Completion percentages...
Who are you?
It's a really good tip?
Okay. Maybe I knew him.
How much was he into you for?
By the time he got to me, he was already on his ass;
no cash at all.
He was giving me goods: watches, cufflinks
And then, a couple weeks ago, he shows up with 100 grand
and wants USC over Arizona.
Where'd he get the money?
Well, that's the thing.
I told him not to go to this guy.
Honestly, Arizona kicks that field goal in sudden death,
my first thought was about Joel's kneecaps.
Sami-- a name?
What about my tip?
What you got on Alabama-Florida this weekend?
Line's got Florida a six-point dog.
Except the real dog--
Alabama's quarterback.
Oh, come on. That's my tip?
The guy is fast-tracked to win the Heisman.
The guy is from Tacoma.
He can't play in the heat.
He's one and 12 since high school
if it's over 90 at kickoff.
Seven interceptions, only four touchdowns.
16.2 passing rating.
And FYI, it's supposed to be over
100 in Tuscaloosa this weekend.
Okay, fine.
But this never left my lips because if it comes out
that I gave him to you, I won't have lips.
Okay.
Kunis. Tom Kunis.
AL: Before I talk to Carrie,
she won't see Max again without your supervision.
And that I thought it was foolish
to let her anywhere near that little boy.
And now... We don't know what happened.
Because I wasn't there.
Because you weren't there,
maybe it was the uncle who frightened him.
Okay, you really believe that?
Maybe her experience makes Carrie exactly
the right person to talk to him.
You're not supposed to defend an ex-girlfriend
to your present girlfriend.
(chuckles) Elaine...
there's a reason Carrie and I didn't work.
I just wish she wasn't so pretty.
(phone rings)
Yeah, Mike.
Turns out the uncle has a gun permit.
So I followed up with my buddy at the license division.
It's a Beretta PX4 nine millimeter.
Same as the murder weapon.
Yeah, well, Carrie and I are talking to him now.
Great.
What did I tell you?
Mr. Newsome. Max is inside with my wife.
We finally got him to eat something.
Well, we're not here about Max.
We just wanted to ask you a couple of questions
about a gun you purchased.
What?
What about it?
Well, now you have a child in the house,
so we... we'd like to see it.
You know, make sure it's locked up and secure.
It's secure, okay?
It's not even in the house.
So where is it?
I lent it to a friend.
His neighborhood had a string of burglaries.
How convenient.
Vance Williams, Orange, New Jersey.
You want to ask him?
What made you want
to purchase a gun in the first place?
To protect my wife.
Two years ago, she was being harassed at work.
Wow, that seems kind of extreme, no?
I mean, most people, they just go to human resources.
Okay, we're done here.
Look, Mr. Newsome... I'm calling my lawyer.
Uh, Mr. Newsome.
(car door opens and closes)
She's a paralegal.
She's at, uh, Claman and Somerstein in the city.
Nina, uh, see... see what you can dig up about that gun.
Hey, Mike?
Yeah? Cable guys--
they normally wear those, uh, big old belts, don't they?
Uh, usually.
Yeah, I thought so.
I got this. No.
Uh, you can't... (sighs)
Hey, buddy.
You mind if I talk to you for a second?
What's up?
I'm with, uh, NYPD, actually.
I was just wondering if I could see
what you got in the bag there.
Drop it!
(groans)
Thanks.
(cheering and whistling)
Kunis.
Mr. Kunis.
Detective Saunders, how you doing?
You bringing me new talent?
Yeah, I'm not that flexible.
This is Detective Inara.
NINA: This guy a friend of yours?
Never seen him before.
And you're not going to see him again.
He tried to take out a witness today in Flushing.
Didn't go so well for him.
That's too bad.
We know you don't like to get your hands dirty
and that Joel Seiferth was into you for 100 grand.
200, actually.
ROE: Then he and his wife
turn up dead in their own kitchen. Hmm.
I read about that.
A shame.
Look, maybe we didn't see eye to eye
on payment schedule, but Joel and I were good.
He paid you back?
200 grand.
Where'd he get the money?
Hey, as long as it's green, I don't ask any questions.
But I'll tell you this--
the whole thing almost made me believe in true love again.
Yeah, how is that?
The wife--
she came in and hand-delivered it herself.
To Kunis? Why would she do that?
Probably didn't trust him not to gamble it away.
But 200 grand-- where'd she get that kind of money?
She hasn't practiced in eight months.
They can't even afford TVs.
She's a doctor.
She could be dealing drugs or selling scrips.
So maybe Ann was the target?
And now Max is because Channel Six News leaked the story.
I put them all in a hotel.
Where are we on the uncle?
Well, he's got a DWI from freshman year at Stony Brook,
and he's he's got a busload of parking tickets. That's it.
I don't like him for this, Al.
I mean, who hires a hit man to shoot up his own place?
What about that guy?
He's still a John Doe.
Van was stolen.
We got a trace out on the weapon.
(cell phone ringing)
Hey, Nina.
Just spoke to the aunt's former employer.
Newsomes did file a harassment suit two years ago,
and we got the gun back from the family friend.
Anything?
Preliminary results from ballistics are negative.
Sorry. I'll let you know when the M.E. has a final.
Thanks.
Looks like Uncle Erik's story pans out.
This lady came up with $200,000.
Let's find out where she got it.
You sit down with the trauma guys yet?
Uh, later today.
It's not like I haven't been here before.
You need anything, let me know.
(sighs)
Actually, I'm down to one these days.
Oh. Progress.
If you want, Johnson's down a guy
on that floater they picked up under the Whitestone.
I just started, you're trying to get rid of me already?
Just want to make sure you're okay.
Anything new?
No.
It's the same.
I remember being with Rachel's body,
I hear a noise, I turn, I, uh...
see a man standing over me, can't see his face.
I'm stuck.
You'll get unstuck.
That's why you're here.
Yeah.
Thank you, uh, for this.
Okay, you guys may dress better here,
but the coffee is just as bad as Syracuse.
(clears throat)
So I got the final report.
Uncle's gun is not the murder weapon,
but while I was down there,
M.E. wanted me to see something else.
That's the body of our hit man. Take a look.
Nephrectomy scar.
Translation?
Guy sold his kidney.
Uh, how do we know it wasn't just kidney disease?
NINA: Yeah, I asked the same question,
but apparently, that would show up in both kidneys.
But this guy-- other one's
clean as a whistle.
Anesthesiology.
I went drugs, but of course, organ harvesting.
Yeah, M.E. says that people pay
upwards of 400 grand cash for one kidney.
Red market. Lot of money at stake.
Lot of desperate people.
The whole van thing-- sloppy.
Guy wasn't a pro.
All right, so who hired him?
Someone who knew him from that world.
Knew he needed money.
(children's laughter echoing)
(children laughing and chatting)
Oh... That's it.
Gym Bam.
They have these photographs
of birthday parties on the wall, right?
One of the... one of the birthday dads,
he had this exact same scar.
Call over there.
See if they can I.D. him.
Okay. Let's find that birthday dad.
A year I can't find work.
We were going to lose everything, you know?
Our apartment, everything.
Did you know Dr. Seiferth?
No, I don't think so.
Oh, Dr. Ann.
Yes, of course. She's an angel.
Daniel's birthday party--
her and Mr. Joel gave it to him after my surgery.
It was a beautiful party.
Look, I'm okay.
It's like it never happened.
Mr. Banico, you... you're not in trouble, okay?
I just want you to give us some information.
When did you have your surgery?
(gasping and whimpering)
Police.
Everyone stay down and be quiet.
Office, paperwork.
Got it.
(medical monitor beeping)
Get those paramedics in here.
I want my lawyer.
Yeah, you're going to need one.
Check it out.
No patient files, but I found a phone bill,
and every other call is to St. Mike's Hospital.
AL: The clinic was in Rego Park.
That's the medical staff we I.D.'d from the bust.
They were calling this hospital.
I'm sorry. I don't recognize any of these names.
The only thing I can think of is that we
recently merged with All Saints.
It's an inner-city hospital.
And we took on a number of their physicians.
You met Dr. Raker.
CARRIE: Yeah, uh, the one
who replaced Ann.
Yeah. He's great,
but, uh, some of the departments have had problems
with résumés not checking out.
You think we could get
a list of those doctors?
And anyone whose expertise
might lend itself to organ harvesting.
Yeah, of course.
Let's have my secretary get you that list.
(door closes)
ERIK (echoing): I'm home.
Liza?
Max?
What's going on in here?
What's going on?
(whimpering) Max?
(no voice)
(door closes)
ERIK: I'm home!
(gasps) ERIK: Max?
(whimpering)
(door closes)
I'm home.
Beautiful plane, Dr. McCardle.
Ah.
It's my one extravagance.
I keep her out at Teterboro.
Yeah, you know, when I was a kid,
we used to have a family friend take us up for rides.
You ever take Max up?
Yeah, I did, actually.
We all went up to the Cape and back.
He loved it.
Oh, yeah, sure. A little boy.
Big boys, too. I'm heading out tomorrow.
But you're gonna miss the memorial.
Yeah, I know.
It's been crazy with the merger.
I promised my wife that I'd take her to Virginia Beach.
That's a shame.
You and Ann were so close.
We talked to the staff and patients
from the clinic takedown; none of them can I.D. McCardle.
He probably never stepped foot in the place.
Okay, so we get a warrant, we toss his condo, his office.
Something will shake out.
You know, judge, search warrant, evidence.
You guys do that here, don't you?
Actually, it goes: judge, probable cause, search warrant.
And unfortunately, we can't bring
what's in your head to a judge.
How about motive?
Okay, uh, once she paid off
her husband's debts, she wanted out.
That would be in line with what Banico said.
Apparently, his friend's surgery
was canceled last month 'cause there was no anesthesiologist.
So McCardle killed her 'cause he needed her?
Maybe he didn't plan on killing her.
Head of Anesthesiology makes house calls with a Beretta?
No, but the head of
an organ smuggling network does.
Okay, so, what, he goes over there to tell her
she needs to keep doing it?
Right, and she says no, she wants out.
She threatens to, I don't know, go public.
Husband walks in, hears what's been going on,
uh, McCardle panics, shoots him.
Got to shoot the wife.
And he knows about the gambling, so he gives them each
a shot in the forehead, makes it look like a hit.
Fact is, even if he's involved in all this,
we still can't tie him to the murders.
Max can.
You should get in there.
Me?
Wow, I thought I was the unstable one
who wasn't allowed to be around children.
Our suspect's on his way to Virginia.
Now, we need that boy's testimony.
I'll talk to Elaine. No, no, no, no.
I'll talk to her.
My fault, my job, okay?
How's it going in there?
Well, as you can see, it's gonna take some time.
Which, I understand, we don't have.
Al says you have a suspect.
Yeah.
How sure are you?
Very.
But we need Max to I.D. him.
Look, Elaine, I should apologize...
No, I should.
When Max had his episode,
I assumed that you'd said something.
That was inaccurate and unfair.
Carrie, he's in
a very, very delicate place.
I know.
I've been there.
I'm in the room with you?
Absolutely.
(door closes)
Hey, Max.
Do you know what I always hated?
There were no good superheroes for girls.
You know?
I mean, can you think of any, at all?
Even one?
Mystique.
Super villain.
Doesn't count.
Wonder Woman?
Wonder Woman.
Okay, I'll give you that one.
But she's kind of boring, no?
I mean, I always thought she was kind of boring.
My sister and I, we used to make up our own superheroes.
It was pretty cool.
Like, I could, uh, I could run super fast
or I could see with super vision
or I could hear with super hearing.
And...
I always got the bad guy.
Yeah?
Yeah.
Well, there was this one time
when I didn't, and, uh, that-that was pretty awful.
What happened?
I don't know.
It's like, uh...
all my superpowers, they just... went away,
and I was really scared.
Did someone die?
Yeah.
Who?
My big sister.
I loved her.
And I cried all the time.
(voice breaking): You did?
I want my mom and dad.
I don't want them to be dead.
I know.
Did your powers ever come back?
Yeah, they did.
Did you get the bad guys?
Most of the time.
Today, I need your help.
You okay, Max?
You just take your time.
That's him.
Which number?
Number three.
Good job.
Hey, I, uh...
I'm sorry.
Oh, you were,
you were just doing your job.
He's so young.
Maybe he'll forget.
I hope so.
And just because I'm not here as much,
it does not mean I've forgotten you.
I'm still gonna come and visit you all the time.
Yes.
That would be nice.
Okay.
You know I love you very much?
All right.
Carrie?
I love you, too.
Just for a second.
Here. Okay.
See, I told you it would fit.
So, can I keep it?
Yeah.
Now let's go save the world!
