Aidan: SHE'S AN I.T. TECH AT KARSTEN ALLIED.
THIS GIRL COULD BE A GOLD MINE.
WHAT ABOUT ELAINE? SOMETHING HAPPENED.
A PERSONAL RELATIONSHIP.
I KNOW YOU THINK I STOLE YOUR MONEY.
I-I -- NO! I -- HEY!
DID YOU KILL LOU TO COVER IT UP?
I DIDN'T KILL ANYBODY!
ARE YOU READY TO GO TO PRISON FOR KARSTEN?
THE PERSON WHO PUT THE GUN IN T.J.'s CAR WAS JACK McALLISTER.
JACK IS THE ONE WHO KILLED LOU MROZEK.
JACK McALLISTER?
YEAH.
KILLED LOU MROZEK. THAT'S RIGHT.
WHY?
BECAUSE LOU WAS GONNA TURN HIM IN TO THE FBI.
TURN HIM IN FOR WHAT?
FOR STEALING, MR. STAFFORD.
JACK WAS STEALING FROM ME.
A VERY LARGE SUM OF MONEY.
LOU FOUND OUT ABOUT IT,
AND JACK KILLED HIM BEFORE HE COULD TALK.
IT'S ALL IN HERE.
T.J. WAS WITH LOU THE NIGHT HE WAS KILLED.
THE GUN USED TO KILL LOU WAS FOUND IN YOUR SON'S CAR.
ALL EVIDENCE POINTS TO YOUR SON, T.J.
THAT EVIDENCE DOESN'T HOLD WATER.
WHY WOULD T.J. KILL LOU?
BECAUSE YOU TOLD HIM TO.
I SENT MY BRAIN-DAMAGED SON TO KILL HIS UNCLE?
YOU'RE NOT THINKING VERY CLEARLY, MR. STAFFORD.
HE'S TURNED YOU UPSIDE DOWN.
WHO?
JACK. IT'S WHAT HE DOES. HE MANIPULATES PEOPLE.
I'M NOT BEING MANIPULATED BY JACK McALLISTER.
PLEASE. OF COURSE YOU ARE.
LOOK WHAT HE'S DONE TO YOU, WHAT HE'S TAKEN FROM YOU.
YOU LEAVE HER OUT OF THIS.
LEAVE HER OUT OF IT?
YOU REALLY DON'T GET IT, DO YOU?
YOU THINK JACK SLEEPING WITH YOUR WIFE WAS AN ACCIDENT,
THAT IT WAS A COINCIDENCE
THAT YOU WERE ASSIGNED TO THE MROZEK CASE?
WITH JACK McALLISTER, THERE ARE NO ACCIDENTS.
NOTHING IS LEFT TO CHANCE.
HE PLAYED YOU.
HE PLAYED ME... MY DAUGHTER, YOUR WIFE.
JACK PLAYS EVERYONE.
HE'S A CON MAN, A THIEF...
...A KILLER.
