Previously on Tribal...
I'm Sam Woodburn of Tribal
and I'm running point on this one.
What the hell are they doing here?
Tribal's now in charge of anything that even smells like Indian.
Now, many cases crossover.
Integration, partnership, and cooperation.
Hey, Buke.
Buke, tell 'em how it used to be.
These guys know the stories.
She's on a warpath...
All about making a name for herself.
You're gonna piss a lot of people off, Sam.
That's kind of the point.
Right now, Phil Thundercloud is gonna pay the price.
You're under arrest for assaulting a police officer.
Oh, come on.
But, sooner or later, we all will.
There are no right choices.
'Specially for you.
And, you got the cop thing.
The woman thing.
Uh, uh, uh, not yet.
The Indi... native thing.
Here's what happens when your Tribal recruits
come into the city and pretend to be real cops.
They end up like that.
Hey, can you confirm that's
Justine Trueblood?
There's this girl, Sydney, on Ryan's basketball team.
She's gone missing.
- When did you last see your daughter? - Been weeks.
And no one's seen Sydney since?
I even checked with her counselors.
She ever work with this guy?
Yeah...
I think so.
The fugitives name is James Ganz.
Come on, Dennis.
What did Justine have on you?
I won't say anything.
NO.
I wanna talk to my lawyer.
They just put us in one box and move us to another.
And we keep letting them.
What the hell is this?
Sam... Sam wait.
What the hell was that?
Just breathe, Sam.
Okay... breath.
Sydney, she was...
I know.
How did you... How did you find... this?
Ganz.
Ganz?
Yeah.
I went back through Sydney's file...
and there was a connection.
Sydney was in the system.
Social services.
Ganz was her social worker?
Well, I'm not sure about that yet...
but he worked here at the water treatment plant.
Okay... okay.
Okay.
Woah, woah, woah woah woah!
Sam, Sam, slow down.
Listen to me.
We need to think this through, first.
Justine was found dead, right over there,
on the other side of that river.
What if it's connected...
to what we found in there?
What if that's why she was killed?
She was tailing Dennis.
She tailed him right here.
That means Dennis knew about the bodies.
All this.
How could... how could he be involved?
Dennis would not kill a cop over some
Thundercloud drug deal.
But, for that... I mean, if he was somehow involved
and she found out...
He's gonna burn for this.
We will make sure of it.
But, we need to be smart.
Okay?
But why Sydney?
That's the piece I can't figure out.
Okay.
How many bodies do you think were down there?
I don't know, Sam.
Too many.
Do you think they were all native?
I don't know, I couldn't tell.
Hey, hey.
We're gonna figure this out.
But it's just you and me...
until we know who we can trust.
You're right.
Who can we trust?
Hey... you okay?
Take a breath.
Okay.
Now, make the call.
Mitch... we need you, now.
We need everyone.
Hey, uh... put those in the corner, okay?
Hey, I'll be right back.
Hey, how many?
Uh... I can't even tell yet.
Come on, Mitch, how many?
A lot.
At least five so far.
But, you have to understand, ID-ing these bodies
is gonna be difficult. Maybe even impossible.
Why?
The chemicals they use for water treatment...
It's like a punch bowl of the strongest
neutralizing agents.
Chlorine dioxide, sulphuric acids.
That's probably why they chose this place.
That'd be my guess.
I mean, some of those chemicals have been
Ripping through these bodies for months.
- Then, we need more help, then. - For sure.
This is not just a regular crime scene.
To process properly, it's gonna take a team.
And we'll need some specialists.
And, it'll take some time.
So we need to get to work.
You saw the girl on top?
Yeah.
Her name is Sydney Redwillow.
How long has she been in there?
Uh...
Based on decomposition alone, preliminarily,
I'd say about a month.
And my guess is that she's the most recent victim.
Well, she's our strongest lead, then.
So, we start with her.
For now, focus your resources on her and we will, too.
Retrace her steps and we'll find out who put her there.
I'll track down her family.
Buke...
Do you think Dennis is really behind all this?
I don't know.
But, I refuse to believe a cop could do all this.
I'm so sorry, Helen.
I... I know how difficult this could be.
When did you last see her?
Okay.
Okay, um, thanks.
Please call me if you hear anything.
Okay, bye.
Sydney's mom.
She's out of town 'til the weekend.
Were you able to get anything from her?
Not much, I mean, she's pretty cut up.
That's not surprising.
I checked Sydney's social media.
She hasn't posted anything in over five weeks.
That was right around the time Ganz was on the run.
We need to talk to him.
Woodburn.
Buke.
This is Detective Marcus Watkins, South Metro.
Marcus, long time.
It has been, Buke.
So... what do we got?
At least five.
And counting.
Thankfully "you" found them.
Now, is this somehow related to Ganz?
He used to work here.
At least we got him in custody.
- We need to talk to him tomorrow. - Uh, no, you won't.
I need you to stand down for now.
Stand down?
What... this is a Tribal case right?
Connie!
Look, the bodies are clearly in South Metro's district.
So what?
With Sydney Redwillow's death,
this is clearly a Tribal case.
We need more information before we open this all up to public scrutiny.
There's a stack of rotting bodies down there and
you're worried about politic optics?
Well, of course I am.
We don't even know what we have here.
You're right, Connie.
Look...
Okay, for now, you both have it.
All right?
Where's Mitch?
He's around here somewhere.
All right.
You're right, Connie?
Stand down?
We're talking to Ganz.
Damn straight.
Are you sure?
All indigenous?
And counting.
Okay, thanks, keep me posted.
Five indigenous victims, possibly more.
This is gonna kill us if we don't handle it properly.
So we spin it.
Meaning what?
Well, missing indigenous women
is one of our biggest issues.
Yeah, and now we've unearthed a whole bloody tomb of them.
I can see it now, "Indigenous Tomb Buried
Underneath the City by Metro Police."
Technically, we didn't.
Huh?
Tribal Police did.
Look, is it ugly?
Yes, horrendous, absolutely.
But thanks to your new Tribal partnership,
we're taking this issue seriously.
And it's already getting results.
Results...
Yeah, I like that.
Look, the public wanted answers.
And, now, they have to face them.
And better yet, we're gonna find out who's responsible.
Peg this to be your next big win.
Hmmm, hmm.
Well... it's really the best angle we've got, isn't it?
And it's all true.
Connie.
Alana, I am so sorry,
but we're gonna have to reschedule.
Why, what are you hiding, Connie?
What's going on?
Rumor has it that you were out on site
at a major crime scene tonight. Is that true?
I've been to a lot of places tonight.
Come on.
When was the last time you were at a crime scene?
When Justine Trueblood was found shot to death.
Don't think I'm beyond it.
Why were there two forensic units
out near where they found Justine?
Is this connected to her murder?
Okay, this is an open investigation.
You're not getting anything out of us, okay?
Who gave you the lead?
You know that's privileged information.
Yeah, and so is you asking us.
So would you please just piss off?
Come on.
Connie, why two?
What?
Why are there two forensic units out there?
Must be big.
Good night, Alana.
We'll be in touch.
So it's true.
They're all indigenous.
So far.
How the hell could nobody find the bodies?
The chemicals and running water played a significant factor.
They covered most of the odor
and increased deterioration
and it looks like those tunnels
have been shut down for years,
but were still receiving run-off.
There's several ways into the area,
but I don't know,
It's still baffling to me how those bodies even got down there.
Okay.
From now on, you find anything new,
you come directly to me, yeah?
Isn't this Tribal's case?
Mmm... sort of.
But, Sam and Buke are running point, right?
Look, I'm to be looped in first, you understand?
Keep me posted.
Good to see you again, Detective Woodburn.
It's Chief Woodburn, now.
Oh, right.
Chief of Tribal Police.
What do you want from me?
James... We know that you used to work
at the South Ward Water Treatment Plant.
Now, this probably has nothing to do with you,
but we wanted to see if you had any ideas
or thoughts that could help us.
We're interviewing all ex-employees.
Who are you?
Who is he?
He's not an Indigenous.
Detective Bukansky.
My grandpa was one-tenth Arapaho.
When were you there last?
Oh, I don't remember.
And what did you do there?
I was grounds custodian.
I was really good at it, too.
Better than social work?
Well, that's a matter of opinion, isn't it?
I think there's two sides to that.
I like to look at life from all sides and angles.
Interesting.
You must've known those grounds pretty well, then?
Hey!
No one's allowed down here.
Well, uh, they said I could look around.
Oh, you're the FNG.
They didn't tell me that you were startin'.
FNG?
New guy.
I'm Ian.
Jim.
Did McNichol give you the ten-cent tour?
Hardly.
Well, there's not much to see down here.
This is a filtering sub-station.
Do you mind if I keep looking?
Hey... by all means.
What kind of chemicals do they use?
The kind you don't want to mess with.
Chlorine solvents, acids, sodium hydroxide.
Pretty potent stuff.
Burns right through your skin, hey?
Burns through damn near everything.
Oh...
I'm fascinated with chemicals.
The particles, they're so small,
yet, they're so powerful.
It just cuts right through the world.
Well, whatever floats your boat.
It's peaceful out here.
Boring as hell, if you ask me.
But, hey, better than the city, right?
What's through there?
Rusted out diversion tunnels.
They're only used for runoff, now.
Word is they found a bunch of lead piping from who knows when,
so they had to re-route over there.
Runoff, hey?
Keep saying they're gonna fix it, but,
doubt they ever fork over the money, the cheap bastards.
People in power often disappoint us.
We know what you put there Jimmy.
Put where?
You tell us.
Did you kill Sydney?
Sydney?
What a beautiful face.
Yeah, she "was" beautiful.
I'm very happy that Sydney is no longer suffering.
Her family is suffering right now.
Her friends are suffering, her loved ones.
Well, we're all suffering in some way.
Aren't we, Chief?
Yeah, seems to be your specialty, Ganz.
Easy for you to put me in a box like that.
Oh, you did that all on your own.
I freed those people.
They're all in a better place because of what I did.
- What people? - Yeah, tell us their names.
You read my file.
Say it. Say you killed Sydney.
I freed them.
Admit it, you coward!
I'M NOT A COWARD!
Can't even...
I'm not a coward!
I took action!
Those people are in a better place because of what I did!
You can't even say their names, you COWARD!
This meeting is over.
I wanna go now.
Yeah, Connie.
Where the hell are you two?
Well, we're resetting.
Just like you asked, remember?
Well, I need you down here at South Metro. It's time we talked.
Why South?
We're setting up a base-camp here.
Okay, we're on our way.
South Metro?
Yeah.
Why is he calling you and not me?
What's up?
I'll catch up with you in a little bit, Marcus.
Okay.
So, for now, at least three bodies,
possibly all indigenous.
Found by our Tribal Police.
Woah.
Good police work.
Have you ID'd the victims?
Alana, this is how it's gonna work.
You speak to me directly,
and I'll feed you the leads up front.
A back channel?
Yeah, what do you say, you in?
How old were the victims?
It's way too early to talk about those kinda specifics,
but, as soon as I have them, I'll let you know.
Is this connected to Justine Trueblood's killer,
Dennis Fitz?
Alleged killer.
And no, Metro Police are in no way involved in this.
You mean, this new development...
The Tomb?
Who called it that?
Doesn't strike you as odd that the bodies are found
in the same area as Justine's?
Look... there is no evidence to suggest that
these crimes are connected.
And if you suggest otherwise,
you can consider our potential partnership terminated.
Don't usually see you get so fired up, Connie.
You wanna be a part of this, or not?
So, Sam and Buke are the primaries on this?
I'm calling the shots here.
Now, I need to know if we're aligned on this.
What do you get out of this?
Controlled containment.
It'll be a privilege working together.
Stays between us, yeah?
Always preferred that side of her.
Ah, it's simple.
We need to stay ahead of the media,
not fight them.
Better to have her on our side when all this goes public.
Are you sure that's where you want her?
We're going to be facing a lot of questions
from the Indigenous community and we've gotta be ready.
What do you mean?
Dennis isn't talking to anyone...
For now.
Oh, and you'll wanna know that Sam and Buke
have been out talking to Ganz.
What? Goddammit!
What?
He's still a suspect.
Dennis won't talk to us.
So, I'm not taking that picture down.
Okay, fine.
But he's not going anywhere for now.
We need to connect the dots on Sydney.
Okay... let's focus on that.
Just couldn't do it, could ya?
Couldn't let it rest 'til I could get a handle on it.
We're laying the ground work.
Ganz has gotta be connected.
I am about to launch
the biggest criminal investigation this department has ever seen
and you're already undermining it.
Like I said, we need to align on this.
Okay, so let's align.
Buke, can you give us a minute.
Sam, when this news all breaks,
how do you think the reserves will react?
Probably like I am.
First, horrified, and then sick,
and now I'm just pissed off.
Now, we've worked so hard
to build trust between our communities.
I just wanna make sure
we don't make for any further complications.
Yeah, but I don't think I have the answer you're looking for here.
Do I need to worry about Buke?
You know, the optics of him working on this case?
Not from me.
Well, let me know if anything changes.
You know, with your community.
Is that it?
No, no, I uh... I need you to lay low...
for a bit longer.
Please.
I just need to stage this properly before it goes public.
Chuck?
Hey, Denise.
Everything okay?
Yeah, yeah.
Everything's fine.
How are you?
Janie tells me that you've been
pretty overwhelmed at work.
Always.
And you?
Yeah, yeah.
You could say that.
I was, um...
Look, I wondered if you wanted to catch up sometime.
Catch up?
Is that so crazy?
Um... unexpected.
I've been thinking about a lot of things.
Things I was hoping that maybe we could talk about.
Well, I've got back-to-back shifts
at the hospital all week, so...
You still cut through the park on the way home?
Yeah.
I could maybe meet you at the bench?
I'm not off until 11:00 tonight.
I'll be there.
Who was that?
It was my wife.
- Is that good? - We'll see.
Did you tell Ryan about Sydney?
No, not yet.
What about your mom?
What am I gonna say to them? They're just gonna worry about me.
They're supposed to worry about you, Sam.
That's the whole point.
Yeah, well, I've got enough going on without
them checking up on me every 6 minutes.
The headlines are coming.
They're gonna know.
Did you tell your wife everything about the job?
No.
That was a big part of the problem.
What do you mean?
Well, you kid yourself that it's for them.
That you're protecting them from all the garbage and so you bury it.
And you put it in a different place.
Step inside your house every night,
you look 'em in the eye,
and you lie.
Maybe that's how you deal, but not everyone's "you".
You don't think it's gonna get to you?
I'll be okay.
So, what did Connie want?
To protect himself.
Man, I've never seen him so cagey.
Well, he's never seen anything like this before.
Neither has this city.
Yeah, and he just expects us to sit around and wait for him?
No way.
I want you to run background checks on all of these people.
Background?
Deep dive on all of them.
We need to put some distance between us and this... tomb.
You're going outside the department?
This has the power to blow back on all of us.
We need to insulate.
How?
A task-force.
One dedicated to this case alone.
And we need the right person up front.
Let me run it.
You?
I know the players.
Let me be the bridge between South Metro and Justice.
What about Tribal?
Oh... Sam can't really handle this.
And, uh, well, Buke trusts me.
We go way back.
No... no, no.
It needs separation.
So you're gonna hire someone from the outside
that you have no control over?
It's a big mistake, Connie.
Well, why do you think I'm asking your help in finding them?
You get the right person, someone barely qualified,
and you shape, steer, mould...
and then when they solve the case,
I look like a hero.
And, if they don't, we blame them?
We get a woman.
Someone strong, but, uh...
not too, you know...
Shape, steer, mould.
Ha, exactly.
All right.
Hey, where are we at?
It's just so much to go through.
But, Connie told me to loop him in first.
Connie told us to get an update.
How many can you identify?
It's still too early to tell.
So what can you tell us about Sydney?
She's been dead roughly five weeks.
Which fits when Ganz was on the loose.
Any idea how she died?
Body shows no clear signs of trauma.
There are no lacerations, or obvious signs of a struggle,
or no external injuries.
What's more, I haven't found any significant
pre-mortem bruising.
Which rules out any kind of strangulation.
Could she have drowned?
It's possible,
but the water levels' pretty shallow.
Unless there were heavy rains, it's unlikely.
I'm waiting on toxicology, but my guess?
She may have ingested something.
Drugs?
An overdose.
It's possible.
How could she get in there?
Someone put her there.
Can you think of anyone who would want to hurt Sydney?
No.
You two were close?
She was one of my best friends.
She'd usually stay with me
when she would argue with her mom.
Which... was a lot.
Did Sydney ever mention a social worker
named James, or Jimmy Ganz?
This guy, here.
I don't think so.
When did you see her last?
I think it was, like, maybe a month ago.
We were in a mandatory study group together after school.
Come on, guys.
I've already warned you.
We're almost finished.
Amy, thoughts on that co-sine?
I don't know.
Sydney?
I'm sorry, what?
Am I interrupting your texting?
Do you and Quentin need a moment alone?
Give her a break, man.
This stuff's useless.
Makes no sense in the real world.
It might if you paid attention.
Or, if we had a better teacher.
Yeah, yeah, actually, I do remember seeing her that day.
Anything unusual going on with her?
No.
I mean, to be honest, I didn't know Sydney all that well.
She uh... ever mention a counselor?
A Jim, or Jimmy Ganz?
I didn't even know she was in counseling.
I mean, it doesn't surprise me.
Why do you say that?
She was distracted easily.
Put in little to no effort.
Struggled with her grades.
What about her friends?
Yeah, they were a big part of the problem.
Especially these two, Amy and Quentin.
Put them away.
Where's Quentin today?
I think he got, like, food poisoning or something.
Yeah, he's really sick.
Yeah, I'm sure.
Kay, enough.
In here, now.
Green Monster.
It might've been laced with fentanyl.
It's everywhere.
You said his name was Quentin Foster?
Yeah, he was the real problem.
I mean, guys like him, you can just tell.
You think he was into drugs?
Without a doubt.
I mean, I saw it all the time.
But, they were friends, right?
You really think he would hurt her?
With the kind of chemicals
they're putting in their bodies.
I mean, I wouldn't be surprised.
I, uh...
I gotta get back to my students.
Thanks, we'll be in touch.
Okay, so, Sydney gets high with her friends,
and maybe she OD's, but still...
How does she get down there?
And who dragged her out to the water treatment plant?
And what is the connection to Ganz?
Let's go.
You coming?
So, you worked as lead negotiator
and government liaison for INAC
for what, six, seven years?
Seven, and, it's actually CIRNAC now.
Oh, right.
And, uh, two years in the Attorney General's Office?
Yes. I was the lead investigator.
So you must've made strong relationships with the reserves?
Definitely.
We pushed through some major ratifications
on several treaty issues.
Mm-hmm.
Well, didn't they see you as the bad guy?
Mmm, federal interests are much different than corporate.
Most of the Elected Chiefs know that we take
their interests seriously now.
We've done our best to build trust.
Well, what about the Elders?
It's case by case.
Most of the negative headlines are caused
by miscommunication and poorly negotiated
energy and trust by the private sector.
Which is why you've never seen my name in any of them.
So, uhm...
Tell me about before you were in INAC.
Five years as an officer on the street,
then straight into Community Affairs.
Your dad was police, yeah?
As you know, he was a detective.
26 years.
Made it to Deputy Chief, then he retired.
He must've had some stories.
That is for sure.
We're looking for someone who can engage
with local reserves, and the same time,
oversee a large-scale criminal investigation.
And someone who also understands chain of command.
I am confident and capable on all fronts.
Well, thanks for coming in, Victoria.
We'll be in touch.
I'm eager to continue the conversation.
Whatever you need.
Thank you
She's perfect.
Checks all the right boxes.
Experience with the reserves.
Federal INAC negotiations...
That woman can handle herself.
Yeah.
But, does she have enough criminal investigation experience?
No.
Which is perfect.
The last thing we want is a ball-bustin',
spit in the dirt, field agent.
We know you were with her that day.
Your study group teacher said you picked up drugs
for her and some friends.
What did you give her?
Nothing.
He saw the texts, Quentin.
You were gettin' high with her.
No, I...
Sydney was a friend.
I would never hurt her.
But, you know who did?
Come on, Quentin.
Your friend is dead, dumped in a sewer.
You think she deserved that?
It's okay, son.
Just tell us what happened.
I didn't say anything,
'cause I was afraid they'd think it was me.
They?
Think what was you?
Look, I'm serious, Sydney.
I'm worried about you.
Okay?
I'm worried you're slippin' in with the wrong kind of people.
They're my friends.
Friends...
Are they really looking out for you?
I mean, you're constantly distracted.
You're failing miserably.
Can you blame me? I hate math.
Trig is so confusing.
You deserve better.
And you're doing drugs again, aren't you?
No.
Do you think I'm an idiot?
No, but...
I do think you're kinda cute when you pretend to care.
Stop this... please, okay?
I do care.
What kind of drugs are you doing?
Why, you wanna try some?
That...
that was one time, okay?
And that... that was a mistake.
Wait, do you?
I was just messing around, but...
You should go.
Or, I could stay.
Is that why you wanted me here?
After... all alone?
You wanna get high with me?
I got some GM.
No, I...
Let's get outta here. Where's you car?
Go on.
That made me sick.
I thought she was just playing him.
But, when she didn't show, I got worried.
So, I went back to the school.
And?
You gotta, help me I don't know what to do.
She's freaking out.
You gotta get here now.
Woah, woah, woah, slow down. What's going on?
It's one of my students, she's in my car.
She took a lot of something,
and I think it's, like, fentanyl.
She's O.D.-ing!
In your car?
I'm at the school.
What?
I messed up, okay?
Look, if I call an ambulance,
they're gonna know it was me, okay?
I'm on my way.
Anyone see you together?
Don't think so.
It all happened so fast.
You gotta help me!
What do you want me to do?
I don't know, take her to a hospital!
She looks dead, man.
Are... are you on something, too? Hmm?
If anyone finds out about this,
your life is over. you know that, right?
Now you've dragged me into this.
She was so happy, and then she just started shaking.
Stupid kid.
You know they don't even know what they're taking anymore.
Who knows what she was on.
Hey, get yourself together.
Okay, it's not your fault.
Well, it kinda is!
You sure no one saw you together?
I don't think so.
The school cameras cover the front parking lot.
Okay.
Don't worry about this.
Girls like this go missing all the time.
Hey, I've got another one of those situations.
Yeah, meet me at the place in 20 minutes.
"I've got another one"?
You're sure that's what he said?
Positive.
And you didn't say anything to anyone?
My word against a cops'?
You think anyone would've believed me?
Dennis.
You know, that's twice now
I've told you to stand down.
This is exactly what I wanted to avoid.
Avoid?
We just connected this case back to Metro.
Oh, you mean Dennis?
- Who did he call? - We don't know that yet.
Was it Ganz?
Connie, we have to work the timelines.
Look, the last person Ganz' will wanna talk to,
let alone help, is a cop.
Then how the hell is he even connected?
We're not sure, but it obviously means
this is bigger than just Dennis.
And somebody else is involved and knows.
Or, the kid could be lying.
He has no reason to.
That you know of.
Hey!
- Woah, woah, woah, woah. - Hey, Stop!
Hey, what the hell are you doing?
Who are you?
Sam, Buke.
This is Commander Victoria Mann.
Commander?
What's going on?
Oh, uh... given the scope and gravity
of what this case has become,
I've assigned a task force to handle the investigation.
Woah-woah, a task force?
This is a Tribal case, Connie.
Not anymore.
You'll be working with Commander Mann.
With, or for?
Together, Woodburn.
Think of it as more resources, more support.
A gesture from Justice to the Indigenous community.
Despite the circumstances,
I'm honored to be a part of the team.
Connie holds you in high regard, Chief.
And Detective Bukansky, your reputation precedes you.
I wish I could say the same.
Well, Commander Mann will be running point on this.
She'll be talking to the media.
And, uh... leading the investigation
just to not over-burden you and Tribal.
Of course.
Well, if you need anything, just ask.
Thank you, I will.
Carry on.
Well, the Commander was mostly a liaison and negotiator.
Almost no criminal investigation backgro...
Why would Connie do this?
To protect himself.
You don't think he knew about Dennis?
No way.
But, when it all does come out, this way,
It'll put distance between the case and Metro.
He thinks he can control this.
Well, he's wrong.
Wait, it gets better.
Listen to this.
'Tomb Beneath the City, ' by Alana Thompson.
According to sources inside the Justice Department,
Commander Victoria Mann will be leading a special task force to run
the investigation that police believe is connected
to convicted serial killer, James Ganz.
That was fast.
There's no mention of Dennis Fitz?
Nope.
Here we go.
Denise, hey, I'm on my way.
Hey, look, I'm sorry...
Was on my way out when they wheeled in a 9 year-old.
Car-wreck... all hands on deck.
Oh, is the kid okay?
Yeah, she's gonna live.
You're a hero.
I am exhausted, raincheck?
I'd like that.
Goodnight.
