- Fresh cash, too, so we can trace the serial numbers.
- That's good.
- Yeah, we identify the bank where the money was withdrawn,
I'm guessing that'll get us to the guy who paid Lewis to lie.
- Mm.
- Unless, of course, you already know.
- No. I-I'm just doing the math, like you.
Do you want me to run the cash? - No, I got it.
- Okay.
Funeral for Roman's sister is in a few hours.
- You should go.
Go. - Okay.

- Good morning, everybody.
On behalf of the Roman family,
I would like to thank you all for being here today.
I'd like to start with a reading from Ecclesiastes.
"My child, when you come to serve the Lord,
"prepare yourself for trials. Be sincere of heart
"and steadfast, and do not be impetuous
"in times of adversity.
"Cling to him, do not leave him,
"that you may prosper in your last days.
"Accept whatever happens to you;
"in periods of humiliation, be patient.
"For in fire gold is tested, and the chosen,
"in the crucible of humiliation.
"Trust in God, and he will help you;
make your ways straight and hope in him."
Word of the Lord.
all: Thanks be to God.
- I love you.
- Did the right thing to call me.
- My sister Sarah, she died alone in a ditch.
Temperature was minus-4 degrees.
Can only imagine how scared she was.
How alone she was.
Growing up... [exhales]
My sister was never alone.
Uh, she was always surrounded by her friends,
cousins, kids from down the block,
kids I didn't even know where the hell--
heck they came from. [sniffles]
You know, they'd just be there,
in the kitchen one day, drinking pop out of
a two liter, waiting for my sister.
She drew people to her because she was warm.
She was loving, and she was always herself.
Strong and stubborn.
She was a fighter.
When they found her... [sniffles]
My sister had scratches
on her hands and knees from crawling,
from fighting.
But there was no one there to save her.
She screamed for help, but no one heard her.
She was screaming weeks before.
Sarah needed help.

But I wasn't there for her.

"Whoever conceals his transgressions
will not prosper."
[sniffles]
"But he who confesses
and forsakes them will obtain mercy."
Proverbs 28:13.
If you ask me, that's a lie.
You can't just recite a passage, say a few Hail Marys,
and then wash away your sins.
And we shouldn't be able to.
We should be required to carry around our sins
for the rest of our years.
All the pain and guilt too.
We need to feel them
so we can do better next time.
So that we can be there the next time
someone screams for help.

- That was a hell of a eulogy. - It was honest.
- Hmm.
- You believe in absolution?
- Kim, I don't think like that.
- Yeah, I know.
- I appreciate you waiting till the service was over.
So how we gonna do this?
- We're not.
[soft dramatic music]
Logan Peters deserved what he got.
As for the person responsible...
Well, we're gonna continue our investigation,
but it's no longer a top priority.
I mean, we'll keep you--
keep you posted with any new information,
but other than that...
♪
I wish you the best.
- [sighs] - What just happened?
- I-I don't know.

- Sean.
I think you're right.
Maybe we should be required to carry this pain...
But then don't we get to decide what we do with it?
